00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, it's Anna Charlie Kirk show.
00:00:01.000 Kurt Schlichter unfiltered.
00:00:02.000 You'll love his comments.
00:00:04.000 And then Kash Patel, all about the Mar-a-Lago raid.
00:00:06.000 Is a Trump indictment looming?
00:00:08.000 And is it time for us to take the high road and not respond?
00:00:12.000 I'd love your thoughts.
00:00:12.000 Email me, freedom, at charliekirk.com.
00:00:14.000 Get involved with TurningpointUSA today at tpusa.com.
00:00:18.000 That is tpusa.com.
00:00:20.000 Start a high school chapter today, start a college chapter today at tpusa.com.
00:00:26.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:27.000 Here we go.
00:00:28.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:30.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:32.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:35.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:38.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:39.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:40.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:47.000 Turning point USA.
00:00:49.000 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.
00:00:58.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:00.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:09.000 Kurt Schlichter is here to help us unpack the raid on Mar-a-Lago.
00:01:13.000 Kurt, here's what I'm trying to understand.
00:01:15.000 Why do you believe Merrick Garland has remained silent on the raid?
00:01:20.000 Is there some discord within DOJ?
00:01:22.000 Why the silence from the Attorney General?
00:01:25.000 It's all part of the plan, Charlie.
00:01:27.000 Look, people keep treating this as if it's some sort of legitimate activity.
00:01:32.000 And you have these soft Fredo con senators like, well, we need to wait to see what evidence they have. 0.99
00:01:39.000 Hey, dummy, have you been asleep since 2016?
00:01:43.000 These guys have spent the last six years trying to frame the president. 0.78
00:01:46.000 You think suddenly they're on to something?
00:01:48.000 You think now they finally struck pay dirt?
00:01:51.000 Oh, he took a classified document with him in his files.
00:01:56.000 Oh, we got him now because classified material, you can't have that nail.
00:02:01.000 The memo went out.
00:02:02.000 It's a crime again.
00:02:05.000 Look, he's not saying anything because the purpose of this is to intimidate conservatives.
00:02:12.000 It's to try and drum up a reaction from conservatives.
00:02:17.000 And conservatives have been taking in general the proper approach.
00:02:21.000 They're not yelling about torches and pitchforks.
00:02:24.000 Instead, they're focusing on cold and relentless fury.
00:02:29.000 And they will take their revenge the correct way at the ballot box. 0.97
00:02:33.000 And then with brutal and ruthless oversight of these petty fascists. 0.82
00:02:40.000 So he remains silent or he speaks. 0.93
00:02:42.000 It's all irrelevant because it's all a lie.
00:02:46.000 It doesn't matter what he says.
00:02:47.000 I don't care what his justification for this is because there is no justification.
00:02:53.000 They're trying to frame the president just like they've been doing again and again for six years.
00:02:59.000 They get, you know, I'm not going to give them the benefit of the doubt.
00:03:05.000 Nor should we.
00:03:06.000 I think it's interesting, though, whether or not there's any discord within DOJ if they're all on the same page.
00:03:12.000 You think they're all there?
00:03:13.000 Okay, tell me why.
00:03:14.000 We're in the good apples.
00:03:15.000 I keep hearing about these good apples.
00:03:17.000 No, no, no.
00:03:18.000 I don't mean it that way.
00:03:19.000 That's not how I meant it.
00:03:20.000 I meant that they're disagreeing on strategy, going too far.
00:03:24.000 I mean, just within the inner workings, they all agree on the same thing, but on strategy and tactics.
00:03:30.000 Go ahead.
00:03:30.000 So it's strategy and tactics for framing the president.
00:03:33.000 Yeah, I think there's probably some professional disagreement on that.
00:03:37.000 They're bouncing around various ways to unlawfully and immorally retain power and disenfranchise at least half the American people. 0.99
00:03:46.000 Yeah, you know, professional scumbags can have professional scumbag disagreements. 1.00
00:03:52.000 So they've probably got some controversy about the strategy and tactics. 0.99
00:03:56.000 Look, these guys are geniuses, okay?
00:03:59.000 It's not Ernst Stabrose-Blofeld sitting in his volcano lair, stroking his cat, you know, the criminal genius, you know, playing with the puppet master, making these guys move. 1.00
00:04:12.000 They are idiots. 1.00
00:04:13.000 They're unaccomplished people. 1.00
00:04:15.000 This is not a power move, Charlie.
00:04:19.000 This is not the move of winners.
00:04:21.000 This is a desperation move because they know the clock is ticking.
00:04:26.000 We're going to retake the house.
00:04:27.000 We're going to retake the Senate.
00:04:29.000 Don't buy all the lies about, oh, the Republicans are in trouble because, you know, Blake Masters, Dr. Roz, they're just terrible candidates and they can't win against super astronaut and heart attack Shrek.
00:04:41.000 Don't buy it.
00:04:42.000 They know what's coming.
00:04:43.000 They know that the train is heading down the tracks toward them.
00:04:47.000 And they know that the next two years are going to be a painful procological exam where the Republicans are going to check the Republic's prostate and it ain't going to feel so good.
00:04:59.000 And then we're going to elect another president in 2024, and maybe President Trump, maybe someone else.
00:05:04.000 But that person's going to be conservative woke.
00:05:07.000 He's going to be based.
00:05:08.000 He's going to know what time it is.
00:05:10.000 And we are going to end the rule of the bureaucrats.
00:05:14.000 And they are terrified.
00:05:16.000 I want to play a piece of tape here.
00:05:17.000 I want to agree with you, Kurt.
00:05:19.000 But yesterday, Tim Scott had something to say.
00:05:22.000 Let's play Cut 40. 0.93
00:05:23.000 I want your reaction, play Cut 40.
00:05:25.000 Do you think the FBI, do you still believe and trust in the FBI to do its job, even with a former president, in a nonpartisan way?
00:05:33.000 Or do you believe, as the former president says, that FBI is executing a witch hunt?
00:05:38.000 Well, we've had the FBI before, the Judiciary Committee, just in the last two weeks, trying to figure out why they do what they do.
00:05:46.000 And there's been lots of questions before this raid about whether or not the FBI is doing their job apolitical.
00:05:54.000 And we don't know the answer to that question yet.
00:05:58.000 This is going to raise more questions, in my opinion.
00:06:00.000 We need to let this play out and see exactly what happens.
00:06:04.000 Kurt?
00:06:05.000 I like Tim Scott.
00:06:07.000 I think he's a great guy.
00:06:09.000 I would love him as a neighbor.
00:06:11.000 If it was 2004, I would be happy to vote for his sunny, optimistic view of empowerment.
00:06:18.000 And he's got a great story.
00:06:19.000 He's a wonderful guy.
00:06:20.000 And he's not a wartime conciliary.
00:06:24.000 Okay, Tom Hagen, out of the room.
00:06:26.000 The men have to talk about how we're going to make our enemies sleep with offices. 0.92
00:06:31.000 If you come in there and go, well, gosh, I need to see all the facts.
00:06:35.000 You don't get that there are no facts.
00:06:37.000 It's all a lie, all a scam.
00:06:40.000 Yet another of the attempts to frame the president to unlawfully and immorally retain power.
00:06:46.000 I like Tim Scott.
00:06:47.000 Nice guy.
00:06:48.000 Not the right guy for today.
00:06:51.000 Kurt, do you think this Mar-a-Lago raid might radicalize some of the Cruz crowd?
00:06:57.000 Or do you like the Cruz?
00:06:58.000 I mean, not Ted Cruz, but you know what I mean?
00:07:00.000 The people that go.
00:07:01.000 Yeah, the Ahoy gang.
00:07:02.000 The Ahoy gang.
00:07:04.000 The guys who want to be on the Lido deck having healthcare reform panels with Rometh Nuru and Jonathan last.
00:07:12.000 Those guys.
00:07:13.000 While the donors drink Zima. 1.00
00:07:14.000 Yeah, those losers. 1.00
00:07:16.000 No, it won't because they're only looking all they care about is their feed trough. 1.00
00:07:21.000 All right. 0.98
00:07:22.000 And that's why they hate Trump, because Trump looked at him and said, you're a bunch of hacks. 0.63
00:07:26.000 You conserve nothing.
00:07:27.000 Look, they're going to do whatever the Democrats want because that's the way they can get a few scraps from the table. 0.99
00:07:33.000 So it's not going to radicalize them.
00:07:35.000 It is going to radicalize a lot of normal Americans because normal Americans are going, you, wait a minute, President Krusty sent guys with guns to raid the house of the guy who might run against them.
00:07:52.000 You know, I'm not big into politics, but that sounds more like Uruguay in 1957 than it should sound like America in 2022.
00:08:02.000 This is our Dobbs in the sense that Democrats thought, oh, boy, Dobbs is going to mobilize all our frustrated wine wives. 1.00
00:08:13.000 This is great.
00:08:14.000 It's going to really radicalize everybody.
00:08:16.000 And I think to some extent it did.
00:08:20.000 But boy, is this going to radicalize us?
00:08:24.000 And when I say radical, I mean get active.
00:08:27.000 I mean, we are people who were like, well, you know, it's an election.
00:08:31.000 I don't, you know, nothing really changes.
00:08:33.000 Now they're mad.
00:08:35.000 And you are going to see Republicans vote in incredible.
00:08:37.000 Yeah, I mean, I think we got to do more than that, Kurt.
00:08:39.000 As I said yesterday, Republican AGs have to start raiding Democrat groups.
00:08:42.000 You have to meet force with force.
00:08:44.000 What are your thoughts on that?
00:08:46.000 Where appropriate, it should have been a problem.
00:08:47.000 No, of course, lawfully, but the evidence is there, Kurt.
00:08:49.000 They burned a billion dollars of property in December of 2020.
00:08:52.000 Get some raids going.
00:08:54.000 Let's go.
00:08:55.000 I couldn't agree with you more because the new rule is you don't hold on when there are political implications.
00:09:03.000 You treat it like any other law enforcement matter.
00:09:05.000 That's the rule they're telling me there is.
00:09:07.000 Well, then let's use their rule.
00:09:09.000 That's right.
00:09:09.000 Now, I like the old rule because I think it's, I think when you're raiding someone of another political party, even when maybe you've got problems.
00:09:18.000 I totally agree.
00:09:19.000 There are other considerations.
00:09:20.000 Those are out the window.
00:09:21.000 That's not the rule anymore.
00:09:23.000 Didn't ask for it, but I'm going to enforce it.
00:09:25.000 Some people would say, well, we don't want to stoop to their level, Kurt.
00:09:29.000 That we want to.
00:09:33.000 I want you to hold on to that.
00:09:34.000 I wouldn't want to stoop, Charlie.
00:09:36.000 We don't want to win by accident.
00:09:38.000 Yeah, I know.
00:09:39.000 We wouldn't want to save the country.
00:09:40.000 We would rather nobly lose, but we'd have a very- I think that sounds like a great camel for the next cruise ship.
00:09:47.000 Ahoy.
00:09:49.000 We'll have a very nice corner suite in Rikers Penitentiary.
00:09:56.000 We got a little porthole.
00:09:58.000 Yes.
00:10:01.000 Are you like every one of us that thinks our country has gone nuts, whether it's Russia Gate market crashes or selling oil to China or this insane inflation?
00:10:09.000 Well, right now, you need a financial mind who understands your concerns, but at the same time as a Christian worldview of money.
00:10:16.000 That's why you should talk to my friends at PAX Financial Group.
00:10:20.000 Look, I've given my money to PAX Financial to manage.
00:10:22.000 If it's good enough for me, I think it's good for you.
00:10:24.000 Like all of us, they have concerns, but they also have hope.
00:10:27.000 In this market, you must have a financial person who shares your hope and at the same time can help you with biblical responsible investing.
00:10:34.000 B-R-I, biblical, responsible investing.
00:10:37.000 That's why I want you to text the word Charlie to 74868.
00:10:42.000 That is Charlie to 74868 to connect with my friends at the PAX Financial Group.
00:10:47.000 Biblical responsible investing.
00:10:49.000 So take out your phone.
00:10:50.000 Just text Charlie to 74868.
00:10:52.000 That's 74868.
00:10:54.000 Text Charlie to connect with my great friends at the PAX Financial Group.
00:11:02.000 Come on, we don't want to stoop down to their level.
00:11:04.000 I hear that all the time.
00:11:04.000 Charlie, we want to be better than that.
00:11:07.000 I mean, it's okay that they raid and they go after Stone and D'Souza and Bannon and Manafort and Navarro and Perry and O'Keefe and Giuliani and Eastman, but we can't go down to their level.
00:11:18.000 Your thoughts, Kurt?
00:11:20.000 Sure, we can.
00:11:21.000 And in fact, we need to.
00:11:22.000 But let's make sure we're very clear on what we're talking about.
00:11:26.000 We are not talking about framing people or making things up.
00:11:30.000 That's off the table, not by some norm or anything.
00:11:34.000 Thou shalt not bear false witness.
00:11:34.000 It's in the Bible.
00:11:36.000 We don't get to do that.
00:11:38.000 What we can do is waive the previous requirement that had a reluctance and a reticence regarding criminal charges against political opponents.
00:11:50.000 You have to be very, very clear that they did it.
00:11:52.000 There can be no mistakes.
00:11:54.000 There can be no doubt.
00:11:58.000 You do it when you have no other options simply because to attack a political opponent using the force of government immediately brings up legitimate questions.
00:12:08.000 Well, that's the rule they got rid of.
00:12:10.000 That rule doesn't exist anymore.
00:12:12.000 So game on.
00:12:15.000 People who conspire with Black Lives Matter and other rioters, those people need to be investigated.
00:12:21.000 Corruption needs to be investigated.
00:12:23.000 I don't know, say there was a relative of a president who seemed to be getting really close to a bunch of foreign potentates and maybe peddling influence.
00:12:34.000 I'd like to see investigation prosecution of that.
00:12:37.000 Or perhaps a former Secretary of State who puts massive amounts of classified information on a server in somebody's bathroom.
00:12:46.000 I think that would be a fruitful subject of inquiry.
00:12:52.000 So yeah, game on.
00:12:54.000 New rules, enjoy them. 0.94
00:12:57.000 Florida Attorney General should raid the home of the judge that approved the raid.
00:13:01.000 I'd like to know about any political biases.
00:13:03.000 Is this judge being paid off?
00:13:05.000 Why not?
00:13:06.000 Look, this guy was apparently one of Epstein's lawyers.
00:13:06.000 Game on.
00:13:11.000 And I think it's very interesting.
00:13:14.000 I think it's very, very interesting that he's the one who signed off on this, particularly because there's some allegations that he has social media posts very critical of the president.
00:13:25.000 You would think that someone like that would recuse himself.
00:13:28.000 Again, another potentially fruitful avenue of inquiry.
00:13:32.000 Yes.
00:13:33.000 And Kurt, I want to be clear for Media Matters, the low-life degenerates that watch this program and do our press releases for us.
00:13:41.000 We don't enjoy this.
00:13:43.000 We are not celebrating this, but we will engage in this moment because we love the country and they wiped out the rule.
00:13:52.000 And so that's the question, right, Kurt?
00:13:54.000 When they wipe out a rule, how do we respond?
00:13:56.000 Traditionally, it's, well, I don't like that.
00:13:59.000 Corporate tax cuts.
00:14:01.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:14:03.000 Look, what is the rule?
00:14:04.000 And again, we need to be very clear about the rule we're talking about.
00:14:06.000 The rule we're talking about is a common sense and prudent reluctance to use the power of government and the power of law enforcement against political opponents because of the effect it has on our political system and the doubts it raises.
00:14:26.000 That's the rule.
00:14:27.000 They threw it out.
00:14:29.000 They said, oh, well, you know, this is, you know, it's in the way.
00:14:33.000 Get rid of it.
00:14:34.000 Fine, but there are consequences to getting rid of the rule.
00:14:38.000 This is not about doing what they do, which is attempting to frame their opponents, which is absolutely what they're doing.
00:14:44.000 We are talking about something different, but it's going to, you know, it's going to be a real problem for them because, you know, I mean, if you send a bunch of forensic accountants to plow through Nancy Pelosi and Paul Pelosi's stock trades and their taxes, I wouldn't be deliberately.
00:15:02.000 By the way, so some people say, well, we don't have that power.
00:15:04.000 Of course you do.
00:15:05.000 You're trying to tell me Nancy Pelosi hasn't traded a stock in a red state in the last 10 years.
00:15:09.000 So let's say she's probably bought and paid a stock in Tennessee or she's free to go litigate to explain why a red state attorney general doesn't have that authority. 1.00
00:15:22.000 I mean, I certainly, I'm certain a red state judge would take all her arguments fully into consideration, just like the arguments of conservatives are taken into consideration in Washington, D.C. Which is not at all.
00:15:37.000 Yes, exactly.
00:15:38.000 I mean, oh, well, again, what is the rule?
00:15:42.000 That's right.
00:15:43.000 Kurt, what's the name of your book again?
00:15:45.000 The book is, We'll Be Back, The Fall and Rise of America.
00:15:48.000 Right now, we're in the fall part, but I'm optimistic.
00:15:51.000 I think we're going to rise.
00:15:52.000 I think we're going to do Brayden 2022.
00:15:54.000 Don't listen to the polls and the Democrats and their propaganda.
00:15:57.000 They're going to get creamed.
00:15:59.000 I love the president today.
00:16:00.000 0% inflation.
00:16:02.000 Yeah, yeah, right.
00:16:03.000 Back to Matt Lock, you.

00:17:15.000 Charlie, when they go low, we just need to stay focused and go high.
00:17:20.000 Is that what they do?
00:17:23.000 How does the left react to that? 0.73
00:17:26.000 Remember Eric Holder, Attorney General of the United States?
00:17:30.000 Remember when Eric Holder was at a Stacey Abrams event?
00:17:35.000 Play 58, please.
00:17:37.000 It is time for us as Democrats to be as tough as they are, to be as dedicated as they are, to be as committed as they are.
00:17:45.000 Michelle always says, Michelle Obama, I love her.
00:17:47.000 You know, she and my wife are like really tight, which always scares me and Barack.
00:17:54.000 But Michelle says that, you know, when they go low, we go high. 0.52
00:18:00.000 When they go low, we kick them.
00:18:04.000 That's what this new Democratic Party is about.
00:18:07.000 We're proud as hell to be Democrats.
00:18:09.000 We're willing to fight for the ideals of the Democratic Party.
00:18:13.000 We're proud of our history.
00:18:14.000 We're proud of our present.
00:18:15.000 And we're proud of the future that we can create for this country.
00:18:19.000 And we're not in this just to make a statement.
00:18:21.000 We're in this to win. 0.99
00:18:23.000 When they go down, we kick them.
00:18:26.000 That's how your attorney general, or our old attorney general, used to talk.
00:18:32.000 Kash Patel is here.
00:18:34.000 Cash, welcome to the program.
00:18:37.000 Your initial thoughts on the raid of Trump's home.
00:18:41.000 A two-tier system of justice on full display in 2022, America.
00:18:47.000 I prosecuted terrorists in foreign countries in Africa and the Middle East that now have a superior justice system than the United States of America.
00:18:55.000 That's my initial reaction.
00:18:56.000 It is the Department of Politics.
00:18:58.000 It is no longer the Department of Justice.
00:19:01.000 And this boomerang, they come back. 0.97
00:19:03.000 You're the political expert, but they come back to just smash them in the face in short order.
00:19:08.000 Cash, there is a fair amount of cynicism in our audience about the rule of law, the FBI, but I think you have an interesting perspective to connect to seemingly unrelated pieces.
00:19:22.000 The FBI is able and willing to do outrageous things because they were never held accountable for the other outrageous things they did.
00:19:32.000 Russia Gate.
00:19:34.000 So, Christopher Wray, why does he care?
00:19:39.000 It's not like people go to jail.
00:19:41.000 The FBI thinks they're better than you.
00:19:44.000 They actually hate you.
00:19:46.000 And we're told that there's all these wonderful agents in the FBI.
00:19:49.000 I'm waiting to hear about them.
00:19:51.000 I don't know who they are.
00:19:53.000 Cash, should we be as cynical as we become?
00:19:57.000 Yes.
00:19:58.000 You're talking to the Russia Gate guy.
00:19:59.000 You're talking to the guy that wrote the Nunes memo.
00:20:01.000 You're talking to the guy that got 17 FBI agents fired, including a director of the FBI and the deputy director of the FBI.
00:20:08.000 That's the power of congressional oversight when it's wielded properly.
00:20:12.000 And I think that's the key takeaway because unless we do that again, come the midterms, we are never going to know the depravity and the depths of this.
00:20:20.000 I mean, you have Christopher Ray going before the United States Senate and instead of answering questions about FBI whistleblowers, by the way, where are all the FBI whistleblowers?
00:20:28.000 And not to Chuck Rassley, who's doing a good job.
00:20:30.000 Chris Ray said he had to jet off on his private jet to his vacation home in the Adirondacks and answer questions of accountability to the United States Senate because the Democrats are in power and they don't care about accountability.
00:20:43.000 They care about politics.
00:20:44.000 So this is going to continue.
00:20:47.000 And the department is not going to answer any questions.
00:20:49.000 Merrick Garland's not going to do anything.
00:20:52.000 He has no problem bringing political cases near an election, even though the mandate at the DOJ has been for 100 years never to do that, even though they preclude Durham from bringing them inside 90 days.
00:21:02.000 But whoa, if it involves Trump, let's do it the day before.
00:21:05.000 It's just going to get worse until November because they know the clock's running out.
00:21:09.000 How do we respond to this, Cash?
00:21:10.000 People are angrier than I have ever seen them.
00:21:13.000 I believe we're in a post-constitutional order.
00:21:15.000 The Rubicon has been crossed.
00:21:17.000 How do we respond to this?
00:21:19.000 You know, it sounds cheesy, but the only way to respond to it is at the polls because what else can you do? 0.98
00:21:23.000 You can educate Americans to watch great shows like yours because the mainstream media sucks. 0.93
00:21:28.000 And all they talk about is fake news, disinformation, and the radical left agenda.
00:21:33.000 So get everybody to watch a Charlie Kirk show.
00:21:35.000 Put it out nonstop and talk about issues that matter and then tell them how you do it.
00:21:40.000 Go get 100 people in a car and a bus and take them to the voting polls and watch them man the bulls.
00:21:45.000 We can do that.
00:21:46.000 We can make sure we, the American people, secure the elections.
00:21:50.000 We don't need the federal government to do it for us.
00:21:52.000 They cannot, but it's up to us.
00:21:54.000 And I hope people are pissed off because that's the only thing, in my opinion, in my experience, that gets people motivated to act.
00:22:01.000 And I'm not saying go out there and do violence.
00:22:03.000 I'm glad that there was people peacefully protesting outside Mar-a-Lago.
00:22:06.000 They should be.
00:22:07.000 Let's get the caravans going from now until election day across this country. 0.79
00:22:11.000 Trucker rallies, car rallies, biker rallies.
00:22:14.000 Let's do them in and around polls where it's legal and lawful to do so and get our vote out there because I think America's sick of it.
00:22:22.000 Why do you think Merrick Garland has been so silent?
00:22:25.000 Why have we heard nothing from the DOJ?
00:22:28.000 It's the easiest thing to do.
00:22:30.000 They hide behind this veil of we're the department.
00:22:33.000 We don't talk about ongoing criminal investigations.
00:22:36.000 Oh, you don't?
00:22:37.000 You just selectively talk about them when they have to do with Donald Trump.
00:22:40.000 You leak classified information when it benefits you.
00:22:43.000 Are you telling me this attorney general didn't call the White House and the White House counsel to say, hey, we're going to go gangster on a former president of the United States and go run roughshot into his home with 30 armed agents like we're in downtown Kandahar, Afghanistan?
00:22:58.000 And for this White House to come in and say, well, we don't comment on it either.
00:23:01.000 They're going to hide behind that till November until you subpoena these guys and hold them in contempt of Congress and threaten to throw them in jail, which is exactly what should happen.
00:23:09.000 So for the next 90 days, it's going to be rough.
00:23:11.000 And we're going to need whistleblowers.
00:23:13.000 And I hope they start coming out in droves, but we're going to need Congress to have the will to say what Kevin McCarthy to do what Kevin McCarthy said last night, which is, Merrick Garland, hold your record.
00:23:22.000 We are going to be investigating you.
00:23:24.000 And they better do it so the American public can see that.
00:23:26.000 I think Merrick Garland will resign before January.
00:23:28.000 That's my theory.
00:23:29.000 Cash.
00:23:31.000 That's my theory.
00:23:31.000 There's no way.
00:23:32.000 I don't think he has a stomach for this.
00:23:33.000 I think this raid did not go as precisely as he would have liked.
00:23:37.000 So I asked you before, Cash, do you think Trump is going to be indicted?
00:23:40.000 You said 0% chance.
00:23:42.000 Has this raid changed your calculus of How audacious they have become.
00:23:49.000 Not how audacious they have become.
00:23:51.000 And I stick by my position that he's not going to be indicted because from public reporting, the best I can tell, there's two ways, twofold reasons to raid him, right?
00:23:58.000 Classified information.
00:23:59.000 He's a president of the United States.
00:24:00.000 I put out a statement on fightwithcash.com, which was President Trump's statement in October of 2020, where he declassified every document related to Russia Gate and the Hillary Clinton email scandal.
00:24:10.000 Fast forward to December of January before he left office.
00:24:13.000 He declassified whole sets of documents before he left office.
00:24:17.000 He is the unilateral classification authority as commander in chief.
00:24:20.000 So what are they going to do?
00:24:21.000 Plus, he still has a security clearance.
00:24:23.000 Obama still has tons of classified documents at his house.
00:24:26.000 And he should.
00:24:27.000 He's a former president.
00:24:28.000 Same with Bush.
00:24:29.000 So what are they going to prosecute?
00:24:30.000 So Obama has classified documents at his home.
00:24:33.000 Yeah.
00:24:34.000 And so does Bush.
00:24:35.000 Yes.
00:24:37.000 So the FBI should go raid Obama and Bush's home now.
00:24:40.000 By this precedent, they should.
00:24:42.000 I would never have called for it before.
00:24:43.000 How about Jimmy Carter?
00:24:44.000 Let's just raid Jimmy Carter's home, too.
00:24:46.000 Yeah, I'm sure.
00:24:47.000 He has some note to Ronald Reagan he wrote on the website.
00:24:51.000 The other thing I want to chime in on is this Mark Elias.
00:24:53.000 Remember, this guy that started the Russiagate hoax who got paid millions of dollars for the DNC by the DNC and Hillary campaign to perpetuate the biggest fraud and has been named a criminal co-conspirator by John Durham.
00:25:04.000 He put out this note where he said, look at this statute.
00:25:05.000 It says, if you take National Archives information, you cannot hold public office.
00:25:09.000 That's true, except that statute doesn't apply to the president of the United States.
00:25:12.000 The Constitution dictates the office of the presidency and a constitutional amendment only.
00:25:16.000 That statute does not.
00:25:18.000 I'm glad the mainstream media is taking it as bait, but what's the crime?
00:25:22.000 What are they going to do?
00:25:22.000 Say he had documents he was supposed to have.
00:25:25.000 I mean, but the extraordinary measures here is there, is there something below the surface we're missing, Cash?
00:25:31.000 What's the story behind the story here?
00:25:34.000 No, you've nailed it.
00:25:35.000 There's no like secret, veiled, you know, they've put it on blast.
00:25:41.000 They've shown what they are doing.
00:25:42.000 They've shown that they have allowed FBI agents who fumbled and trapped people in the Whitmer case, FBI agents who lie to a federal court for Russia Gate, who called Russian, Hunter Biden's laptop Russian disinformation knowingly that it was false.
00:25:57.000 These are the guys that got promotions.
00:25:59.000 Chris Ray was asked about them.
00:26:01.000 What are they doing?
00:26:01.000 And they're running this investigation.
00:26:03.000 If you want a promotion in government, screw up.
00:26:06.000 If you want a really big one, screw up royally and you'll get it under this administration.
00:26:09.000 The New York Post is reporting the documents in question are notes written on cocktail napkins and letters between Obama and Trump.
00:26:16.000 So we are now raiding people's homes, crossing the Rubicon and declaring war on half of America.
00:26:21.000 Let me be clear. 0.68
00:26:21.000 They declared war on us over cocktail napkins. 0.68
00:26:24.000 Is that right, Cash?
00:26:26.000 I mean, if that's, I saw that reporting, and if that's what they got, oh boy, they got a lot of problems.
00:26:31.000 There was an amicable way to do this: issue a subpoena, talk to lawyers, get it done appropriately above board because it's a former president of the United States.
00:26:40.000 They chose to go rogue and they have allowed government gangsters to run roughshot over our constitution.
00:26:46.000 So the only argument that's out there that I can't answer is why has Trump not yet released the warrant?
00:26:54.000 You know, there's probably a legal strategy in play.
00:26:57.000 Look, me as a former federal prosecutor and public defender, I wouldn't release it right now either because you have to game out a strategy.
00:27:03.000 Are we going on offense?
00:27:05.000 Are we challenging it?
00:27:06.000 And if we put it out for the public to pick apart, it becomes harder to challenge that in the court of law.
00:27:10.000 And what you want is the win in a court of law.
00:27:13.000 And then you get to publicize it.
00:27:14.000 I'm all for keeping it secret. 0.90
00:27:17.000 But also, there can be a significant amount of nonsense and garbage on the warrant as well.
00:27:22.000 Is that correct?
00:27:24.000 Yeah, look, these warrants can be really long or really short.
00:27:27.000 And they can just, you know, when you challenge it, you don't want to, you know, we don't want to do what they did, which is politicize it.
00:27:33.000 When you challenge it, you want to be on the right footing in a court of law to say, Judge, we didn't do anything wrong.
00:27:38.000 Look at what they did.
00:27:39.000 And then you are on such better footing.
00:27:40.000 I'm like, I know where this judge is completely biased and should have recused himself from this case, but that's another story, how the FBI went selectively jurisdiction shopping with this guy.
00:27:51.000 But he's not, he's a magistrate judge.
00:27:53.000 He's not the guy that's going to decide the morrow issue.
00:27:56.000 Basically, he's like the JV.
00:27:57.000 He comes in and deals with preliminary marriage.
00:27:59.000 He's not a federally, he's not a presidentially appointed, Senate-confirmed lifetime judge.
00:28:03.000 He's selected by the district court judges in that district for a six-year term.
00:28:08.000 That's it.
00:28:09.000 He is not an Article III judge as the other guys are.
00:28:12.000 So, Judge Reinhart, who signed the warrant, who put him into place?
00:28:18.000 The bench, the entire bench gets together in the Southern District of Florida, the federally appointed judges and select after a process, a certain number of magistrate judges.
00:28:28.000 No, no, no, I'm talking about the one who signed the warrant, though.
00:28:30.000 Was it a magistrate judge signed the warrant?
00:28:32.000 A magistrate Reinhardt is a magistrate judge.
00:28:35.000 I know that.
00:28:35.000 Okay.
00:28:36.000 So that makes sense.
00:28:37.000 So this was an appointed of an appointee, essentially, is what you're saying.
00:28:42.000 Yeah.
00:28:42.000 With no lifetime tenure and no.
00:28:45.000 This is the guy who signed the warrant, Bruce Reinhart, there with an entire bottle of whiskey.
00:28:52.000 And he issued that statement basically hating on Trump.
00:28:54.000 I don't know if you saw that.
00:28:56.000 Yep.
00:28:57.000 But basically.
00:28:58.000 Anti-Trump judge who drinks whiskey and eats Oreos while watching Sunday Night Football and then puts it on social media.
00:29:04.000 Super weird and creepy during a hurricane.
00:29:08.000 You know, I think there's a lot of questions.
00:29:10.000 Oh, and by the way, Charlie, I don't know if you noticed this, but this same judge recused himself from Donald Trump's RICO case that he filed in the Southern District of Florida against the FBI DOJ and so many others.
00:29:22.000 So why did he recuse himself from that case?
00:29:24.000 But said, hey, game on.
00:29:26.000 Judge.
00:29:27.000 Shopping.
00:29:27.000 That's what they do.
00:29:28.000 So, Cash, I want to ask you, I want to play a piece of tape here, actually, about the judge.
00:29:32.000 Do we have that Lois Lerner one with the judge?
00:29:36.000 What cut is that?
00:29:37.000 That's right.
00:29:37.000 It's a longer clip.
00:29:38.000 Play cut 48, then I want your response.
00:29:40.000 This is the judge who signed off on the Mar-a-Lago warrant defending Lois Lerner, deleting two years of emails during the IRS scandal.
00:29:48.000 Play Cut 48.
00:29:49.000 Incompetence doesn't necessarily lead to criminality.
00:29:52.000 So which out of those two scenarios right there seems more likely to you at this point?
00:29:56.000 Within the IRS, probably incompetence.
00:29:58.000 The IRS has one of the most antiquated computer systems in the world.
00:30:02.000 And the fact that emails could have disappeared without Ms. Lerner knowing about it or Ms. Lerner being involved is entirely credible to me.
00:30:08.000 Information came back up to her that said, this is what we have.
00:30:11.000 She reported what she was told, and it turns out not to be true, but that's not a crime.
00:30:15.000 If she didn't know it wasn't true, that's not a crime.
00:30:17.000 And that's going to probably be where her defense lies.
00:30:19.000 And one of the problems with that might be the fact that there have been some new emails surfacing that Lerner apparently warned some of her colleagues about that.
00:30:26.000 And we have one on the screen here.
00:30:27.000 I was cautioning folks about emails and how we can have, how we had several occasions where Congress has asked for emails.
00:30:33.000 Maybe this is a smoking gun that proves there was some sort of conspiracy here.
00:30:36.000 Possibly.
00:30:37.000 It depends, again, how one reads that email.
00:30:39.000 It could be read one way to say that destroy what we already have, which would, of course, be criminal, or it could be construed to say, going forward, recognize that Congress may ask for our emails.
00:30:49.000 So be careful what you put in writing.
00:30:51.000 Because I think at the end of the day, what originally happened here is probably not a crime.
00:30:56.000 That is Judge Reinhart defending Lois Lerner, destroying evidence.
00:31:02.000 That is the same judge who signed off on the FBI search of Donald Trump's home.
00:31:06.000 Cash your thoughts.
00:31:08.000 Well, it just goes to the fact that this guy should have recused.
00:31:11.000 I mean, he's fine to hold those beliefs and he's fine to have that opinion as a lawyer and later as a judge too.
00:31:17.000 Of course, you can't erase your history, but that's why judges are supposed to be neutral arbiters of the facts and the law.
00:31:23.000 And that's why there's a mandate for recusal when you cannot be so.
00:31:26.000 And even when there's an appearance of impropriety, even when you can come in and say, oh, don't worry about it, I won't act on it.
00:31:32.000 The appropriate thing to do as a judge, based on the judicial canons of ethics, which govern them, is to say, just so the public maintains integrity in the judicial system, I'm out.
00:31:42.000 Give it to somebody else.
00:31:43.000 It's not like you're the only guy that can do this case.
00:31:45.000 No, he wanted to do this case, and the DOJ and FBI wanted him to do this case.
00:31:49.000 They selected him to do this case because they know how the carousel works and they know where they were going to get the best shot.
00:31:56.000 And I think you're right, Charlie, they overshot.
00:31:58.000 They're going to see that not only was his raid completely unlawful and unnecessary, but they went judge forum shopping, which continues the political.
00:32:06.000 Let me ask you: so, there's this new Newsweek story out of which I don't believe it looks like damage control, but it says here, quote, What a spectacular backfire, says the justice official.
00:32:14.000 I know there's much speculation out there that this is political persecution, but it really is the best and worst of the bureaucracy in action.
00:32:21.000 They wanted to punctuate the fact that this is a routine law enforcement action stripped of any political overtones and yet got the exact opposite.
00:32:29.000 Your thoughts?
00:32:30.000 I mean, I don't know if that's an anonymous source or what clown is saying that, but this is that every single thing they have done is intentional, it's planned out.
00:32:41.000 You cannot conduct a raid quietly with 30 guys and fly them down from the Washington field office and hide the fact that they're going to do that and show up unannounced and get a search warrant and get a judge to authorize it.
00:32:53.000 This has to be authentic.
00:32:54.000 I'm telling you, I was at DOJ.
00:32:55.000 I ran some of the highest level prosecutions ever in that department during my tenure.
00:32:59.000 This is something the Attorney General must sign off on.
00:33:02.000 The director of the FBI must sign off on.
00:33:05.000 And since it has to do with the president of the United States, the White House Counsel's office has to be involved.
00:33:10.000 There is no other way to do that.
00:33:13.000 And there's interrupt, Joe Biden knew about this.
00:33:18.000 I would say definitively, the White House Counsel's office knew about it.
00:33:21.000 Whether they told Joe Biden, how about Merrick Garland for sure?
00:33:24.000 What's that?
00:33:25.000 Merrick Garland knew about this.
00:33:27.000 He had to authorize it.
00:33:28.000 There's no way he didn't know about it.
00:33:30.000 And then Christopher Wray.
00:33:31.000 100%.
00:33:32.000 Same thing.
00:33:34.000 And then Barack Obama, probably too, but that's a separate issue.
00:33:36.000 So, then, but Joe Biden, maybe is what you're saying.
00:33:43.000 Maybe.
00:33:44.000 I mean, look, you know as well.
00:33:46.000 Yes, you know better than anyone.
00:33:47.000 Like, why would they tell him anything?
00:33:49.000 He's not really in charge.
00:33:50.000 He's sort of just ballooning around going to South Carolina or wherever he's off to next for a bike ride.
00:33:56.000 So if I were the White House counsel, I'd probably not have told him in all reality because he would have blurted it out.
00:34:02.000 It's incredible.
00:34:02.000 What a moment.
