00:00:35.340
released we talked to chris stewart who has a really interesting perspective because he's been
00:00:42.440
in all of the skiff hearings yeah he's seen a lot of this testimony actually happened yeah uh and uh
00:00:48.500
he has a different viewpoint than i've noticed from like the new york times you notice that i did
00:00:53.760
notice that also china of course it's the future of course it's lovable i mean who doesn't love
00:01:00.300
socialism and communism and unless you're a video game player some of the new rules that could have
00:01:06.800
been ripped off right from the campaign trail of michael bloomberg yeah uh this is why we need
00:01:13.740
kanye 2024 yeah that's right which we also talk about china's new video game rules all of that and
00:01:18.460
more on today's podcast it's monday the beginning of impeachment week yay oh i'm so excited about
00:01:42.700
impeachment week have you put your tree up yet your impeachment tree yeah yeah with all of the
00:01:48.840
with all of the uh trump people that we can lynch on the impeachment tree in our own homes it's going
00:01:55.600
to be very very exciting um here is my worst nightmare my worst nightmare is that everybody makes this
00:02:03.500
just about donald trump and the fight with joe biden because that is not what this is about
00:02:10.480
it doesn't make sense that all of a sudden nancy pelosi with all of the things that trump has done
00:02:19.900
takes this one ukrainian phone call something where joe biden did exactly the same thing except joe biden
00:02:28.660
strangely gets credit as this great hero for telling a nation to stop looking in and investigating
00:02:36.280
corruption don't investigate where our seven billion dollars is he gets credit for being a hero for
00:02:44.480
doing that and yet trump just says hey i want to know where that is go ahead and investigate please
00:02:52.520
investigate and he's held uh for impeachment now why on god's green earth would you bring up
00:03:05.320
impeachment on that certainly not to strengthen your front runner because this has not strengthened
00:03:12.220
joe biden doesn't really hurt him though either to be honest his polling is holding no but are you
00:03:17.100
willing to 11 in the last but are you willing to roll the dice on that as nancy pelosi hey let's bring
00:03:22.120
up the barisma thing i don't know i mean i i it's it's a bizarre it's a bizarre path it's a bizarre
00:03:29.400
because there's been so many things that they put place so much attention on so i mean muller is the
00:03:34.880
most obvious example but there's plenty of them where they've spent so much attention on trying to
00:03:39.300
convince the american people that this was a an impeachable situation and yet this came out before
00:03:47.140
anyone even knew any of the details about it before they even had the transcript of the call they were
00:03:51.080
saying it was impeachable and why would you bring attention to uh ukraine and joe biden your front
00:04:00.940
runner on something that is risky that you could just avoid and leave alone why would you do that
00:04:08.620
especially when you know two people in ukraine were convicted of tampering with the united states
00:04:17.240
election on behalf of the dnc and hillary clinton so you're pointing the cameras toward the scene of
00:04:26.880
now we know from you know murder investigations the first person that you're supposed to
00:04:36.520
investigate as the suspect is the one who calls it in okay the one who finds the body
00:04:42.780
is the one that you start there okay you found the body and how'd you find the body uh-huh and then
00:04:49.660
when you rule them out you can expand well the ones who found this body is the dnc but they believe
00:04:58.320
that they control the media so tightly they control google and facebook and youtube and everybody
00:05:04.780
else so tightly that they can actually get a president thrown out of office and not have to pay for any of
00:05:15.640
their crimes and we are talking about crimes here this is not high crimes and misdemeanors which is
00:05:22.580
political these are crimes so what is this really about
00:05:28.880
well uh you know i'm a fan stew is not a fan of marvel i'm a fan of marvel and i'm very excited about
00:05:41.460
uh the the beginning of disney plus this week because disney plus has some new marvel uh shows on it
00:05:50.540
that are going to be premiering that i imagine are good seeing that they spent 25 million dollars
00:05:57.200
per episode that's insanity incredible i think i i um um what was it game of thrones
00:06:06.120
was 15 million dollars an episode okay most expensive 15 million dollars an episode the average
00:06:14.200
is about 4 million dollars an episode this is 25 million it better be damn good but i'm a fan of
00:06:25.240
marvel and so i'm i'm excited to see marvel and and as we were looking into this if we realized what
00:06:33.120
we're dealing here with is a is a reality version of hydra and if you watched you know any of the marvels
00:06:43.260
you know that hydra is kind of like specter is to james bond except hydra is uh is looking for a new
00:06:52.600
world order and uh they're going they're they're using four different categories to be able to bring
00:07:00.260
that that new world order into play and they use these four independent sectors and with their players
00:07:10.440
inside of these sectors they're able to take over the world or at least that's what they think
00:07:16.660
so the the hydra itself is split into four independent sectors the international corporations
00:07:24.320
and they use legitimate businesses to conceal their illicit activities they use government
00:07:32.420
acts assets they use you know individuals within the chain of command and they they like to do it
00:07:41.040
not in the administrations but they do it in the bureaucracies because there's very little turnover
00:07:48.300
in the bureaucracy then they use global criminal groups and those are for the short-term goals
00:07:55.900
also used to deflect unwanted interest from global law enforcement community so they are they're in bed
00:08:03.140
with really bad oligarchs and criminals and then intelligence agencies they use the government's
00:08:12.780
intelligence agencies to be able to know exactly what's going on all around the world now why would i bring
00:08:21.180
up hydra what does hydra have to do with the impeachment hearings this week a lot a lot because
00:08:34.240
this is revolving around ukraine and as we told you in our last special when we started looking into
00:08:42.240
ukraine we found some things that we didn't expect to find yes we found corruption it's ukraine
00:08:50.600
yes we found uh burisma and in just implausible story about joe biden and his son that it was
00:09:02.540
completely innocent and that joe biden knew nothing about this well joe biden didn't need to joe biden
00:09:09.520
was over there to break up the the national gas and oil companies and restructure so all he had to do
00:09:19.340
was just start hammering all of the infrastructure of oil and gas and have his son on the board of
00:09:26.340
directors of one company and of course everybody's going to look at that in a corrupt nation and go
00:09:32.220
oh i see how this works okay so if his son is over on the board of directors of that one that one is the
00:09:39.280
chosen winner because that's what corrupt governments do they pick and choose winners and losers
00:09:44.940
so you didn't really have to be in cahoots with anything you just have to have your son known to be on that
00:09:54.020
board of directors and of course all the government contracts will go there because everybody wants
00:10:01.100
more from the united states because all we were providing were blankets they're fighting russia
00:10:08.880
we're providing blankets how about some tanks how about some you know guns airplanes what do you say
00:10:20.160
no no we'll provide you tanks and or we'll provide you blankets and maybe more maybe more but you've got
00:10:27.920
got to do a few things that we say you have to do now could be could be that they just you know
00:10:40.780
america just hates russia so much that uh we were just gonna give them blankets to fight against russia
00:10:51.060
that doesn't work it could be well no it it really can't be anything else it looks like
00:11:08.500
but the american people would find out and american people wouldn't like that
00:11:25.480
exactly what this state department has been building not just in ukraine but all over the world
00:11:35.460
we're going to show you a plan that was started by barack obama and hillary clinton
00:11:45.440
and and what they did in our state department and put it into play that has everyone screaming
00:11:57.500
bloody murder because whether trump knew it or not
00:12:01.400
he stumbled into something that would expose all of it
00:12:07.640
and so the state department started to say hey hey hey hey he's he's he's in this territory
00:12:14.740
we don't want him in this territory he can't be over here he can't stop this he can't do anything over here
00:12:21.400
so whether trump was doing it because he wanted all that dirt on on joe biden
00:12:27.160
because he clearly never said hey by the way i'm not going to pay you unless you get my
00:12:33.040
unless you get my uh my my opponent you get dirt on him you take him down otherwise i'm not going to
00:12:40.260
give you the 400 million he never said any of that but let's just say that was his desire
00:12:45.580
what he actually did was set off a chain of events that was going to expose exactly
00:12:54.900
what the dnc hillary clinton barack obama and the u.s department of state
00:13:02.480

00:14:22.200
podcasts so our next president in 2024 could be kanye kanye west kanye has come out and he said uh that
00:14:35.880
he was gonna run uh in 2024 and then people started to laugh and he's like what are you laughing at yeah
00:14:43.500
he did not like that they laughed at that no he's not happy about it yeah so when i run for president
00:14:49.120
2024 we would have created so many jobs in fact i'm gonna walk what i'm saying is when you all read
00:14:55.860
the headlines kanye's crazy this and that and this and that it's like one in three african americans are
00:15:02.580
in jail and all the celebrities are in jail also because they can't say nothing they've got no opinion
00:15:09.820
they're so scared yeah i heard i heard the audio of this statement and i could not decipher what he
00:15:17.140
was talking about i you know i'm reading it and i can't really decipher what he's talking about
00:15:22.140
he's talking about though because and i know this from his past statement which is a little more
00:15:25.540
coherent than this he was talking about the number of african americans in jail and and that that this
00:15:30.960
is this is what they've wrought from supporting democrats all these years this is what has happened to
00:15:36.340
is that there's there's very few um fathers in in heading the household in black families
00:15:43.680
that is so many african americans are in prison so many are hooked on drugs so many are hooked on
00:15:49.120
the welfare system and he's fighting against it i mean he really he sounds more conservative now than
00:15:56.860
he did when he first started doing the maga thing it sounds like he knows what he's talking about now
00:16:01.600
whereas before he just liked trump and he didn't really necessarily it didn't seem to me anyway
00:16:06.640
like he knew yeah really what trump stood for or if he supported it now i think he does and he does
00:16:14.060
support it the one thing he's been pretty consistent on i think is he's offended by the idea that he has
00:16:20.100
to believe a certain way because he's very much that part i love that yeah i mean i love that too
00:16:24.540
yeah i love that's a really that's a really basic thing you know you're an individual you get to make
00:16:29.020
your own choices aren't you offended by all of the things that you're supposed to believe because
00:16:34.120
you're a conservative you are supposed to hate children you are supposed to like people dying in
00:16:41.400
front of hospitals without care you are supposed to like starving people to death you are supposed to
00:16:47.460
just love war in all of its forms oh i do love that i mean those are well i mean yeah obviously that
00:16:52.680
in the hospital yes yeah there's nothing better than the hospital one too i mean we're all
00:16:58.380
used to being offended because we're supposed to believe these things when that's not what we
00:17:03.880
believe the same thing with kanye he's like wait a minute just because i'm i'm a different color
00:17:11.320
i'm supposed to believe these things and as he's telling people what's more racist than that
00:17:17.440
because i'm black i have to believe like you do because i'm black i have to vote for democrats i have
00:17:24.720
to keep voting to stay on the plantation there's nothing more racist than that yeah nothing and
00:17:30.380
and you know look that racism is collectivism they are the one of the same one is just a version of
00:17:35.540
the other and you know you have we constantly talk about identity politics and like oh well
00:17:39.840
black voters want this and you know that is just collectivism you're just taking these tiny
00:17:44.820
these groups shall work for these groups and these groups should believe we're all individuals
00:17:49.660
and kanye west is i think a powerful force at least in illustrating that point whether he knows what
00:17:56.940
he's talking about on any of these issues i don't know okay so can i ask you another thing that i'm not
00:18:01.540
sure if he knows what he's talking about and and i'm i'm sure he does more than i do but last week
00:18:08.460
it came out that he and his wife kim had a disagreement about her met gala gown did you hear this
00:18:14.300
no okay i missed that yeah no i did try to stay up on her met gala gown no i know that um the only
00:18:20.100
reason why this caught my eye is because um the headline kim kardashian removed fake nipples from her
00:18:30.800
met gala dress after kanye voiced displeasure that they were there or that they weren't there no that
00:18:37.560
they were there they were and he said uh let's see here he said it was actually quite amazing i
00:18:43.220
didn't even know that was a thing i didn't know that i know no he said while looking at my wife
00:18:48.080
oh my girl needs to be dressed like these other girls showing her body off showing this showing
00:18:52.400
that i didn't realize that it was affecting my soul and spirit as someone who's married in love
00:18:57.740
uh the father of what's about to be four kids uh a corset is a form of underwear it's hot it's like
00:19:05.560
it's hot for who though so i that was my question in this whole thing is you know what whatever
00:19:12.940
i didn't know there was such a thing as fake nipples yeah i didn't either and she apparently
00:19:17.760
removed them where do you buy them what do they look like i mean how do you attach them do you attach
00:19:26.820
them to you do you attach them to the dress is it something that a woman would want to receive hey
00:19:32.640
honey here's some fake nipples because your real ones i don't like right i mean how does that
00:19:38.080
is it just do you sew them onto the dress so do you have do you buy them in sets i don't know i mean
00:19:44.840
i'm sure you buy them in sets of two but do you buy them in sets of six one would be a weird purchase
00:19:49.860
one singular nipple would be a very odd purchase i think to me i feel like they come in like a
00:19:55.660
almost like an egg crate where you're getting like several pairs and they're disposable
00:19:59.300
that's that's how i would envision it if that product doesn't exist so wait a minute so do the
00:20:04.700
fake nipples do you wear them they're one use i think they're one use nipples but wait kind of
00:20:10.840
like contact lenses right but hold it just the same of the night do you attach them to the dress or you
00:20:16.220
i'm gonna go with you're gonna probably attach i would say probably to the dress right because if you
00:20:25.600
if you attach them to you and you wear a bra then you're kind of losing the point of the fake nipples
00:20:30.200
correct so i think the point of i i'm assuming the point of this is the point i guess i hadn't really
00:20:35.440
considered i have no idea you want to see the point you see nipples you think they're real
00:20:42.520
who knew that they would yeah who knew that they were fake who knew that they were fake
00:20:47.580
we've been deceived we have way too many ways again women just so deceitful women wow can't live with
00:20:53.980
them no so anyway uh we'd like to find out at least i would i just like to i'd like to get to
00:21:03.660
the bottom some answers yeah because maybe he's crazy maybe he's like my wife's wearing fake nipples
00:21:08.420
and she's like i don't have fake nipples he always says i have fake nipples i know
00:21:18.280

00:21:57.160
this week in the next couple of months and then we're going to go into some of the transcripts we're
00:22:00.520
about to get into the you know thanksgiving is coming up we're about to lose ourselves in the
00:22:05.080
holidays so let me just plan out your nightmare wonderful doesn't it over the past year i know
00:22:10.100
lose ourselves in the holidays i know i love that i know i want to be allowed to lose myself in the
00:22:15.000
holiday me too i'm going to this comes from cnn which you might say oh i don't know cnn fake news
00:22:19.480
but they do seem to be almost like planning the impeachment hearings on the air so they have a
00:22:25.580
pretty good sense as to when things are going to happen here's what nancy plose is going to say
00:22:29.320
today because we told her so so so far we have uh transcripts uh from the inquiry of about 2700 pages
00:22:37.840
of transcripts uh we have fiona hill george kent michael mckinley gordon sondland bill taylor uh
00:22:46.060
alexander vindman colt volker and mary yovanovich she was the uh the ambassador so we still have
00:22:53.140
christopher anderson laura cooper katherine croft david hale uh tim morrison philip reeker jennifer
00:22:58.500
williams to be released so we still don't have about half of the transcripts of the behind the
00:23:04.240
scenes stuff they've already done okay so that's step one that's at some point these things will
00:23:09.640
start uh trickling out and we'll get all of them wednesday is a big day for a few different reasons
00:23:14.900
number one there's a big special on blaze tv you should go to blaze tv.com use the promo code gb20
00:23:21.060
off get 20 off your subscription uh helps support these things and it's about the impeachment we'll get
00:23:26.340
into the the exact details as to what we're going to cover with this special on wednesday uh but you

00:23:37.840
your subscription is is welcome uh to support all these efforts that is one thing on the other side
00:23:44.660
is the first uh live testimony we're going to get in public this is going to come from uh kent and
00:23:52.780
taylor now taylor is one of the uh he's the former ambassador uh top u.s diplomat in ukraine he's one
00:23:58.880
of the guys that was texting about basically there was a quid pro quo he's one of their one of their
00:24:03.680
star witnesses i would say um there's also uh kent who is really critical of the president so they're
00:24:09.620
leading with some of their best material here um this is november 13th which is wednesday uh then
00:24:15.700
on friday you're you're gonna get testimony from yovanovitch she is the former uh ambassador to
00:24:22.500
ukraine uh and was fired basically by the trump administration she's the ambassador that everyone
00:24:28.860
said uh was stopping uh any investigations by the ukrainians into government u.s government officials
00:24:37.720
uh into uh the anti-corruption bureau uh into anything doing with george soros anything having
00:24:46.860
to do with burisma stopping all investigations and stopping any information coming into the united
00:24:53.400
states she wouldn't provide visas nor deliver any information from the uh prosecutor general in
00:25:00.340
ukraine that's pretty significant of course now they don't you know i don't talk about that but
00:25:07.480
maybe they will i mean this is a chance for republicans to ask some questions too now next
00:25:12.440
week is another week they believe of live testimony and what's fascinating to me about this is next
00:25:20.400
week is next week uh i'm trying i'm losing track of my weeks here how many weeks until actually
00:25:25.660
thanksgiving is uh two weeks so two free weeks before the thanksgiving week you are really bumping
00:25:33.040
up against the holidays here with your live testimony it's probably the last week where your
00:25:37.340
people are really going to pay all that much attention to this at least on the top of their
00:25:42.940
news cycle people drift in and out around the holidays they're going to christmas parties they're
00:25:46.780
going to you know thanksgiving dinners gatherings all these things news we know this from years and
00:25:51.960
years and years of experience the the marketplace for news drifts off a little bit in december so it's
00:25:58.480
weird to place things that you want attention on in december if you can help it well you would make
00:26:04.300
sure that you lead with the with the ones that you think are the safest and the ones that are going
00:26:12.540
to make it through any kind of cross-examination you do that this week then you go with your second
00:26:19.920
tier next week and then after that it doesn't matter like eventually they just start michael avenatti
00:26:25.140
starts bringing people in and then you know they're almost done yeah they're almost done then they're
00:26:29.000
they're like whatever because the people are like yeah yeah how many days till christmas i gotta get
00:26:33.540
some shopping done right so uh so the next two weeks of live testimony then we go on to thanksgiving
00:26:39.320
week where they're sure to take a break vacation time uh then they come back and they there's a
00:26:46.820
funding that's the government that needs to be funded uh which is you know your typical debate that
00:26:52.360
would highlight and be the first thing people will be talking about in the news yeah but again
00:26:56.640
why did they put it at this time of the year yeah it disappears bury it it disappears uh then you
00:27:03.140
have um then you have the december so what the rest of the schedule is so after we get all of these
00:27:10.240
all this testimony done the house goes and they come up with you know their charges of impeachment if
00:27:14.660
there are any because who knows maybe they'll decide there aren't there's nothing needed nothing
00:27:17.680
wrong i mean i know this is a fair and open process and maybe they'll just decide you know what
00:27:21.640
looks like the president was clean here maybe that will happen but likely they'll go back and come up
00:27:25.900
with articles of impeachment if they do that they think they will have a committee report
00:27:30.140
uh and vote on the first week of december as early as the first week of december um and that is uh
00:27:39.120
you have the votes then the next week so you have the the reports the the charges the hearings
00:27:44.200
then the vote the next week which would be uh probably december 16th they think again you're
00:27:50.480
now in the mid i mean who is paying attention to the news on december 16th right like this is
00:27:56.520
it's bizarre now i will say the clinton test the clinton impeachment vote did happen on december 19th
00:28:01.680
1998 so it's not the first time this has happened at this sort of time period um but it is sort of in
00:28:07.740
the middle of the christmas holiday and this would be the type of thing now they're not committing to
00:28:14.400
that timeline but that's basically what you're looking at they're saying now they think they're going to get
00:28:18.480
a vote done completely by the end of the year i mean it's it's optimistic i think for them i mean if
00:28:24.060
you don't think there's going to be twists and turns in this thing here's the here's the thing i'm
00:28:29.020
concerned about i'm concerned that the gop is not going to allow it to proceed to the senate and i think
00:28:39.260
that is a massive massive mistake you you're sure about that yeah you can't you cannot you have to start
00:28:49.480
playing offensively this is they're putting us into a defensive mode play offense good we've got some
00:28:58.500
things we'd like to introduce uh to the american people as well uh we've got our own uh witnesses to call
00:29:05.500
we have our own pieces of evidence uh to bring in and they want to do that they want to bring people like
00:29:10.960
hunter biden in to testify right but they think the democrats are going to block that from happening
00:29:15.700
well you can do that i believe you can do that in the house but i don't believe you can do that
00:29:22.760
in the senate because the senate the president has a right he has his own attorney so he has defense
00:29:29.560
so he can bring up all of the stuff that he said in the phone call hey you know i want to know about
00:29:36.120
uh the corruption with the election tampering i want to know uh what was happening uh with
00:29:44.040
burisma i want to know what was happening with our seven billion dollars they do not want that to come up
00:29:51.960
and so far i don't know why but so far you don't have a lot of uh republicans talking about this yeah
00:30:01.920
they've got to go on the offense i think a lot of republicans think that's not the offense though
00:30:08.300
they think that giving into a senate trial is giving it too much credibility i tend to agree with
00:30:14.660
you blow it out of the water yeah because here's what you think again we these things are tough to
00:30:20.780
predict but i mean generalizing here what's going to happen is the democrats in the house are going
00:30:24.640
to bring out their best evidence and there's not really going to be a chance to push back on other
00:30:28.680
types of related issues in public because that's not the way it's formatted so that's this is why
00:30:34.040
they like it right they get all the bad stuff out they don't have to deal with the other stuff and it
00:30:37.320
goes uh to the end of the year they get the impeachment vote and they can tell all their people that yeah we
00:30:42.100
got that done all the senators you know and and they can all brag about how their party is the one that was
00:30:46.980
able to impeach donald trump for the primary and then it goes to the senate and if mitch mcconnell
00:30:51.660
says you know what this is nothing and this is this is political and we're not going to talk about it
00:30:55.820
then they have that argument of this is the first time in history which it would be that the senate
00:31:01.600
did not take up an impeachment that was done in the house uh it is it was it would be one of those
00:31:06.100
things where they would have an argument that say essentially the the republicans are just ignoring
00:31:10.400
all the bad things that they're doing if you bring if you have the trial it's not like the
00:31:16.320
the democrats are going to come up with additional information on this they're going to blow it all
00:31:20.960
here on this impeachment thing so you're going to get a rehash of all the stuff we've already heard
00:31:25.040
and then additional evidence of all the things that the republicans can talk about that they can't
00:31:31.020
get away with talking about in the house not to mention that it will pull all the senators that
00:31:35.560
are presidential candidates off of the campaign and they will i think it is i think this is i think
00:31:40.460
this is just destruction i think if every single senator stands up from the republican side this is
00:31:50.400
nothing but a circus this is a waste of american time and american money but the american people need
00:31:58.780
to know what the democrats are willing to do to overthrow a duly elected president so i vote bring it on
00:32:10.520
if they approach it that way and every single one of them when they are voting say that
00:32:18.960
don't just say yay don't say yay say damn right bring it on
00:32:27.560
you have to have because what will happen is just a vote they'll say oh my gosh 60 republicans think
00:32:35.580
this should be looked into as well no no no all of them need to be in lockstep this is a trial that
00:32:43.340
is going to reveal the truth not about what happened on that phone call because we all know that's a farce
00:32:51.800
we are only voting yes so the president has a right to defend himself to show exactly what the dnc
00:33:01.860
has been doing what hillary clinton's role was in collusion with ukraine you want to bring it up you
00:33:10.480
want to expose you want to you want to have an honest conversation democrats bring it on and what and
00:33:16.940
what are the what are the democrats going to bring to the table there they're going to be able to bring
00:33:20.580
up the third time we've heard testimony from taylor yeah like what are you what are you going to go to
00:33:26.320
there right i mean when you see stew when you see what the special is this wednesday the evidence that
00:33:35.140
we have you look at just the evidence that we have we have two people that were convicted
00:33:40.500
for working with the dnc and hillary clinton in collusion with the ukrainian government to thwart our
00:33:49.740
election they've already been convicted if we have the tape of them admitting it you're not seeing
00:33:56.600
that anywhere are you it's high time the american people see it and the president can use it in his
00:34:04.120
defense because it's not unrelated it's not unrelated that's what he was talking about in the phone call
00:34:11.960
and all of those people when he says look there are some people that were involved here and i think
00:34:18.140
they're still around you all of the names that we have on the chalkboard fair game if they're making it
00:34:25.820
about the phone call it opens up the door for all of it to be exposed and on wednesday you'll see how
00:34:34.820
deep this thing goes we thought this was about ukraine until we were doing the special for the last special
00:34:42.660
and we were doing research and we came across a name and it popped up in one of the hearings and we're
00:34:48.280
like oh my gosh wait until you see i like to call it the democrats hydra

like listening to this podcast if you're not a subscriber become one now on itunes and while
00:36:33.500
you're there do us a favor and rate the show it's monday the impeachment hearings begin and
00:36:39.180
chris stewart has been kind enough to be able to make time in his schedule uh he's a congressman
00:36:45.440
from utah that has been in the skiff have you not been you've been you have first-hand experience
00:36:51.280
in the skiff do you not first-hand experience on more than one occasion glenn and before we get
00:36:57.160
in that let me say happy veterans day to all our veterans god bless them all out there if you
00:37:00.940
would let me absolutely i know you're a veteran so happy veterans day to you and your family
00:37:05.860
is just riddled with heroes and uh i'm grateful for everything that they've done along with all
00:37:11.900
the other veterans so chris um first of all just side note you're you're in on these impeachment
00:37:17.760
hearings you've been sitting there and listening to this in the skiff yeah yeah glenn and not just
00:37:22.980
for the last six weeks by the way this goes back really three years i mean for three years the
00:37:28.060
intelligence committee which is one of the most important committees in congress the work we do
00:37:33.180
really matters we've been diverted for years now on first the russian collusion uh the muller report
00:37:40.720
you know obstruction of justice and then they ran out of uh ran out of ammunition there so now we're
00:37:46.440
doing impeachment on ukraine so why not yeah i've been there day after day i've been doing that
00:37:51.900
can you tell me uh first of all just just for casual interest what's the skiff like is it a
00:37:58.320
regular room is it like in the movies where there's a glass box in the room yeah is it like that not as
00:38:04.260
not as mysterious as it may sound i mean it's a secure facility you have uh obvious heightened
00:38:10.020
security around it you go down the hallway through a uh a very heavy it's not really a blast door but
00:38:16.520
it's a door in north that will contain any electronic emissions or any any sound and then you go through
00:38:21.980
another inner door and after that it's much like any other kind of office space there's a couple of
00:38:27.740
hearing rooms some conference rooms a library that's kind of disappointing and uh yeah yeah kind of
00:38:32.720
disappointing i like the movie skiff better okay so chris um we we now have from uh schiff
00:38:39.980
what is going to happen he says as we move to open hearings it's important to underscore that the
00:38:47.400
impeachment inquiry and the committee will not serve as vehicles for any member to carry out the
00:38:53.720
same sham investigations into the biden's or debunked conspiracies about a 2016 u.s election
00:39:01.100
interference that president trump oppressed ukraine to conduct for his own political benefit the committee
00:39:07.580
also will not facilitate efforts by president trump and his allies in congress to threaten intimidate
00:39:12.640
retaliate against the whistleblower who courageously raised the initial alarm it remains the duty of
00:39:18.540
the intelligence committee to protect whistleblowers and until recently this was a bipartisan priority
00:39:23.200
the whistleblower has rights under laws championed by the committee to remain anonymous and be protected
00:39:28.560
from harm the impeachment inquiry moreover has gathered an ever-growing body of evidence from witnesses
00:39:34.360
and documents including president's own words on his july 25th phone call that not only confirms but
00:39:39.920
exceeds the initial in information from the whistleblower's complaint the whistleblower testimony is therefore
00:39:46.700
redundant and unnecessary wow well i mean it's just nonsense glenn there's so much in that that is just
00:39:56.420
nonsense but that's the way this investigation has been conducted from the very beginning you know that
00:40:01.840
letter is in response to our request for six additional witnesses and you know they write up
00:40:08.400
the resolution that governs this impeachment inquiry in such a way that we can't even call our own
00:40:13.660
witnesses we can't ask the questions that we want to ask everything we do is subject to the approval of
00:40:19.800
the chair and you won't approve any of it imagine a defense can you imagine a defense where you're actually
00:40:25.800
a trial and the judge says well you can't call any defense witnesses or your defense attorney can't
00:40:31.960
make certain arguments that's what we're in the middle of here and that's what adam schiff is doing
00:40:35.920
but glenn no one is surprised about this i mean truly we're not surprised it's the way this has been
00:40:41.240
conducted from the beginning and it's the only way they can conduct it and have the narrative that they
00:40:45.840
want that the press will then go out and mimic to try to convince the american people
00:40:50.120
so you what is the plan then because what you're you're not facing a hearing you're you're facing an
00:40:57.840
inquisition and adam schiff is schiff is the grand inquisitor if he makes all of the rules and they
00:41:05.260
don't apply to any kind of natural american rules what do you what do you have here besides an inquisition
00:41:12.720
well i think there's a couple things number one is just like with the kavanaugh hearings where they
00:41:17.660
took the presumption of innocence the idea that you've got to face your accuser we took these
00:41:21.840
principles that we've supported and defended for a thousand years and threw them out the window
00:41:26.040
the american people are offended by it and they are offended by this as well so part of the argument is
00:41:30.760
we point out how unfair it is how just unfair it is not to be able to call our own witnesses and make
00:41:36.760
our own arguments but i don't think we win on that glenn i think the biggest thing is what you've been
00:41:41.100
saying for the last week and that is playing out the absurdity of the argument at its core
00:41:46.460
of course american uh intelligence or american law enforcement agencies investigate and work with
00:41:53.980
foreign governments to investigate crime and corruption of course we do has anyone ever heard
00:41:59.140
of interpol we do that all the time and the second thing is of course we do principle pro of course we
00:42:06.340
withhold aid i mean we had a president who came to power in ukraine that none of us knew he came out of
00:42:12.180
nowhere we didn't know if he was corrupt or not and it would be perfectly legal and perfectly within
00:42:17.360
the realm of not just legality but common sense to say hey we should understand this individual
00:42:22.160
he even said we can trust he even says in the phone call look um our intelligence shows that some of
00:42:29.560
the corrupt people are still around you and he says no i know who they are and he says no miss president
00:42:35.700
i don't think you do know who they are but we believe they're still around you and influencing you
00:42:40.940
so the president is questioning the guy's credibility and saying look we don't know if you're corrupt or
00:42:47.760
not and you have to show us that you're not exactly i mean this is from the president again we didn't
00:42:54.160
know anything about we knew that he was supported by some oligarchs now some of these oligarchs are
00:42:58.900
claiming that they're to fight corruption but that's a that's a difficult argument to accept on its face
00:43:04.040
and so the president was saying we need to understand him and by the way glenn this is
00:43:07.800
important for those of us who work in national security intelligence we have heard early in the
00:43:12.680
spring when this election first took place there would likely be a hold on some of the military aid
00:43:18.300
that we were going to provide you the crane while we evaluated the new president and the new
00:43:23.000
administration again that's perfectly understandable in fact it's expected and and i think the last thing
00:43:29.660
on this is another core argument people are making is yeah you can investigate people but you can't
00:43:34.980
investigate politicians if you're running for office you can't be investigated i think that's an absurd
00:43:41.040
argument to make if you want to have american people talk about the elites in washington go ahead and
00:43:46.300
make the argument that you can investigate anyone except for someone running for office like vice president
00:43:50.860
biden was they're beyond an investigation it's improper to ask questions about them i think that's a nutty
00:43:56.580
argument to make so uh chris are do you believe that you guys are just going to be shouted down uh i mean
00:44:04.900
you know when you say the kavanaugh hearing the kavanaugh hearing it was made because we heard from the two
00:44:12.640
sides if you can't call the right witnesses and you can't ask questions it was the republicans that
00:44:19.280
were asking those questions that that revealed who she was and then it was kavanaugh's opening
00:44:26.160
statement where do you what do you have uh and and what tools do you have to be able to
00:44:34.080
have those people make the case because nobody's going to listen to the people giving speeches up on
00:44:40.860
the by the committee yeah well i glenn i think there's a couple things one thing the rules of
00:44:45.780
engagement with the closed hearings are going to have to open up you're not going to have have instances
00:44:50.720
like there was with me and others where chairman schiff actually wouldn't let me ask a question
00:44:56.560
or phrase a question the way that i wanted to although i insisted and didn't change my question
00:45:01.100
and you know the witness wouldn't answer but they're not going to be able to do that
00:45:04.420
in open session like they have been able to do in a closed session then the second thing is even if
00:45:09.720
we're not able to call our witnesses which is incredibly destructive to the sense of fairness about
00:45:15.400
this but once again we can go point out to the american people how how absurd that is if you're
00:45:21.600
interested in a fair a fair process fair to both sides and then i think the third thing is this and
00:45:27.700
it's not it's something that we've talked about much but that is this has to go to the senate and
00:45:33.380
the senate will operate by their own rules and the senate i think if they wanted to hear from some of
00:45:38.020
these other individuals they'd have an opportunity to do that so i think at the end of the day the senate
00:45:42.640
may wash out some of this you know other things that we're seeing here in the house why should
00:45:47.840
why should this whistleblower be quote-unquote exposed yeah you know the law on that is very
00:45:57.720
clear and it's been contorted and that's not surprising it's not the only thing that has been
00:46:02.460
but there's been this contortion saying that it's illegal to expose him it's not it's it's illegal or
00:46:08.540
inappropriate for the inspector general who is conducting the investigation to expose him or to
00:46:14.320
reveal who he is the point being is you wouldn't want to have reprisals from his co-workers or his
00:46:19.960
supervisors to fall down upon him but this is something quite different you can't initiate
00:46:25.520
the impeachment of the president united states and expect to remain unanimous and not have to answer
00:46:31.480
any questions and there are meaningful questions that we want to ask this whistleblower we want to do it
00:46:37.160
in person such that we can evaluate him so that we can see his response that's an important part of
00:46:42.500
of any any hearing that's why you have court where you bring the witnesses before the jury you don't
00:46:47.780
just have them sit in a back room and answer questions in writing and we really hope you have a chance
00:46:53.280
to talk with this whistleblower face to face the american people deserve to hear from him so
00:46:58.160
chris i i have to tell you um i don't know if you've seen the chalkboards uh specials that i've
00:47:04.980
done but uh they have his fingerprints i mean he is he's like capone's accountant he his fingerprints
00:47:14.260
are in and around all of the things uh that have transpired with with biden uh with the ambassador
00:47:23.280
with chalupa i mean he's there it's yeah he's there at the scene of the crime the whole time
00:47:29.000
the whole time well it's him and others uh other friends he's not the only one no no i know that
00:47:35.320
yep yep well and again that's those are great examples as you've pointed out now for a couple
00:47:41.340
weeks glenn those are great examples of fair questions that the american people should have a
00:47:46.020
response to chris stewart um what do you do now today and tomorrow when when should we start
00:47:53.460
seeing things what should we be looking for how's this play out in the next couple of days
00:47:58.940
well you know i'm actually here in southern utah today flying back to dc tonight we're going to have
00:48:03.800
some strategy meetings tomorrow where we're going to have opportunities to kind of sit down as a
00:48:08.400
republican caucus and sit and kind of work out how we think we'll handle these open hearings i got to
00:48:13.200
tell you glenn i don't think they're going to be very compelling i don't think there's any surprises
00:48:18.060
that are coming either way there's not going to be any groundbreaking moment where you think oh man
00:48:22.720
the president is in a lot of trouble and on the other hand there's not going to be anything where
00:48:26.480
you think oh this is exculpatory there's nothing there it just is what it is uh but i guess we'll just
00:48:32.220
jump into the first hearing on wednesday and uh and see how that first one goes and then maybe
00:48:36.740
evaluate what what changes we might make in our strategy after that wow so um you are you because
00:48:44.640
i said this morning i think the president needs to i think the senate needs to take this and start
00:48:50.460
playing offense um and take this up because if you're not going to get anywhere with it uh and
00:48:56.940
you're just going to have you know a tie in the end nobody's nobody's mind is changed and nothing's
00:49:03.980
really been exposed it's got to go to the senate and they've got to start playing offense is that
00:49:10.560
kind of where you think it might go i completely no i agree with you and i alluded to that earlier
00:49:15.780
that the senate won't have their hands tied like we have in the house but is that a personal belief
00:49:21.680
of yours like it is a personal belief of mine or is it something that has a chance of really happening
00:49:26.440
oh i think absolutely has a chance of happening when you talk with when you talk with some of the
00:49:31.600
senators who are going to be involved with this and their approach to this process i think it's
00:49:37.620
no look i'm not in the u.s senate and i don't want to speak for them but i think it's it's more than
00:49:41.980
likely oh that's great okay good i'm glad to hear that because there's a there's a lot to uncover
00:49:47.740
there's a lot to uncover chris thank you so much oh no glenn thank you sir you bet that's
00:49:53.460
representative chris stewart uh from uh the state of utah who is he's been in the hearings
00:50:00.760
um and i've been dying to talk to him but he's in the skiff and so he can't say anything but
00:50:07.680
on the public hearings he can uh and we're also going to be talking to some other people along the
00:50:15.120
way to uh to get their viewpoint on what is coming the blaze radio network
