00:00:00.000 wow uh that was quite the statement from the president to uh france and you know uh it's

00:00:09.000 kind of like um mr gorbachev tear down this wall you know it's take all the isis fighters you want

00:00:15.560 is the same as mr gorbachev it is it is this it is the president saying things that everyone said

00:00:23.080 you should not say and sometimes they need to be said that's true from that perspective i'll give

00:00:28.560 you that yeah um i mean he definitely probably a lot of people would advise him not to say that

00:00:32.620 but i mean like they're talking trash about him in the hallways yeah in front of the cameras like

00:00:36.980 getting caught on the hot mic like trashing the guy right so no wonder he doesn't like him at least

00:00:42.120 he's saying it to their face yeah you know with them standing next to it you give him that yeah for

00:00:47.960 sure uh okay uh we have wow we have some incredible uh news on uh on uh on impeachment and what

00:01:02.960 was said yesterday as we go into the impeachment inquiry all over again i i've never seen anything

00:01:10.880 like it oh and by the way schiff just decided he could get anybody's phone records that he wanted

00:01:17.740 cool

00:01:18.340 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment

00:01:36.840 so in the report yesterday that came from uh the impeachment hearings from the democrat the only

00:01:43.380 thing that was a real surprise or shock there was the new revelation in the report uh which um

00:01:49.740 showed that uh chairman schiff had obtained the phone records of donald trump uh nunez

00:02:00.300 rudy giuliani all from at&t was there some sort of a court that was involved in in that how did those

00:02:12.300 phone records fall into their hands is this the way we run a republic or is this the chiquita banana

00:02:21.340 i mean because we are quote capitalists so maybe it's the chiquita banana republic just so we can make

00:02:28.960 some money off of it how how do you get the phone records of the president of the united states how is

00:02:36.380 that a surprise to the guy who is supposedly your partner nunez who is the co-chair how did he not

00:04:26.680 wow i don't i don't even know where to begin today uh i've got an unbelievable

00:04:44.940 washington post story that is i mean my blood is boiling from it uh but i maybe we'll maybe we'll

00:04:54.440 just start here uh with the cell phone records house intelligence committee chairman adam schiff said

00:05:01.980 cell phone records obtained by impeachment investigators show considerable coordination

00:05:06.860 among white house officials who democrats believe tried to bribe ukraine the government officials into

00:05:13.000 investigating joe biden and democrats a 300 page impeachment report that was issued yesterday

00:05:18.680 afternoon records uh includes records of calls between president trump and his personal lawyer

00:05:25.780 between president trump and his personal lawyer

00:05:33.700 how what excuse me schiff said the calls mirrored the impeachment inquiry's determination that the

00:05:44.640 trump administration coordinated to bribe ukraine into investigating trump's political opponents by

00:05:50.660 dangling the 391 million dollars in security aid the records in the report include several calls

00:05:56.120 between giuliani and the top republican on the intelligence committee uh devin nunez i find it deeply

00:06:02.720 concerning at a time when the president of the united states was using the power of his office

00:06:06.760 to dig up dirt in a political rival that there may be evidence of members of congress

00:06:11.380 complicit in that activity said schiff a at&t provided the call records likely likely under subpoena

00:06:20.700 who granted that subpoena who who how do you go and and and get a subpoena

00:06:30.720 for the records of the guy who is sitting on the committee as your co-chair without your co-chair

00:06:40.840 knowing about it particularly when you're trying to make the case that it's wrong to use your power

00:06:45.900 to investigate your political opponents their entire case is based on you should not be doing

00:06:51.560 those things now my guess is what they got the records from the other side right it's from

00:06:56.260 lev parnas or one of these other guys and they're trying to show no i've got i've got the records

00:07:03.060 here that show calls from rudy giuliani to devin nunez let me let me give you so hang on just a second

00:07:09.440 let me give you let me show you what they have amazing um at 12 o'clock 36 seconds uh eastern time on

00:07:16.460 4 10 19 uh rudy giuliani called devin nunez uh the duration of the call was 35 seconds

00:07:23.060 then uh 12 10 35 uh devin nunez called rudy giuliani the duration of that call was zero seconds

00:07:32.240 uh then on uh the same day at 12 10 devin nunez called rudy giuliani back the duration of that call

00:07:41.340 was 31 seconds uh then uh at 12 12 rudy giuliani called devin nunez and that call lasted two minutes

00:07:51.100 and 50 seconds then after that rudy giuliani called uh devin nunez and the duration of that call was

00:08:00.120 zero seconds so that's pretty damn incriminating right there what that shows you is somebody was

00:08:08.640 trying to get a hold of him and then he called back and then the other guy called back and they

00:08:13.200 kept missing each other they're playing phone tag they never talk to each other and when they do

00:08:16.920 they're on the phone for two minutes and 50 seconds um wow what kind of diabolical plot

00:08:25.560 could you possibly hatch in two minutes and 50 seconds now um our chief researcher uh

00:08:34.480 jason buttrill uh is has read the entire house report and uh is ready to give us his reading of

00:08:45.140 this first of all your first thoughts on on this i i'm it feels like the soviet union that was my first

00:08:52.780 uh that was my first thought after seeing that i have no idea even if you have even if you're getting

00:08:57.740 a warrant for getting some of these things um like first of all you can't go through fISA i saw a lot of

00:09:02.340 people asking me on social media if they could use fISA because you can't use fISA so that's out

00:09:06.640 has nothing to do why can't you use fISA because it has nothing to do with a foreign national and

00:09:10.680 collecting intelligence so fives is completely out a warrant you need some kind of criminal proof proof

00:09:18.180 to get that granted so i don't know i mean this is is is there any any indication in the report

00:09:24.840 that they did get a warrant because it just says likely no issued a warrant well likely that should

00:09:33.560 be led someplace that yeah we did get a warrant you don't get phone records for anybody anybody

00:09:41.420 without a warrant i mean this is this is why you use the house intelligence committee i mean this is

00:09:46.860 one of the dirtiest things i've ever seen this is i mean would kinstar been able to say hey at&t give

00:09:52.020 me all your phone records no not without a warrant not without a warrant and you don't you're tracking

00:09:57.040 the president's personal attorney and the president of the united states and who's granting that and with

00:10:06.060 what evidence and what was that granted if you have evidence fine let's see the evidence and why was this

00:10:13.980 put into the report he's making this he's making this case that look at look at how dirty this is

00:10:19.340 they're all calling each other why is this in the report if it was so important why didn't you have

00:10:24.280 anyone testify about that because they don't want it challenged at all they just want to put that out

00:10:31.040 there and then just leave it out there is it possible this comes from another source like the southern

00:10:36.600 district of new york uh in another because giuliani has been reportedly been in being investigated over

00:10:42.820 various things and potentially that's where they're getting these records from although i don't know that

00:10:47.340 that's i mean it's not like they just share them it's not like it's an overt legal process to be

00:10:53.060 like hey we have an investigation too here's all of our stuff that shouldn't be how it works at least

00:10:57.620 but maybe that's where it came from that's the only thing i can think of is the southern district of

00:11:02.620 new york because they they seem to be doing the work yes i mean straight out of the democratic party

00:11:08.400 yes right where they just everything that is conveniently investigated comes from there now look i don't know

00:11:15.260 some stuff they have found legitimate problems with some of the people uh in in the orbit uh of

00:11:21.800 these uh of these storylines but that doesn't mean that it started with the best of intentions

00:11:27.060 why couldn't you use faiza on rudy giuliani because he was talking to foreign nationals but i

00:11:35.080 you have to do it on parness right in this context yeah but he's an american citizen isn't he

00:11:39.380 i don't know the answer to that actually is he dual i'm fairly sure he's an american citizen so

00:11:44.720 you wouldn't be able to use uh a faiza are they both worn against him yeah i think they're both

00:11:49.620 american citizens okay so my my question is because i want to get into this a little deeper here in a

00:11:55.260 second but my question is first question is there any outrage is anybody going to do anything is

00:12:01.620 anybody today going to demand answers where is the outrage from the senate and the house where's the

00:12:09.160 outrage from the media one of their own was targeted in this john solomon they got the phone

00:12:14.100 he's not one of their own he was until he started disagreeing with their uh with their storylines

00:12:19.840 i mean this is absolutely one of their own this is crazy they're now spying they're now spying uh on

00:12:27.140 the just the house just the house not the administration just the house is spying on our

00:12:34.680 president and his personal attorney we have not seen if they have records and they they got a subpoena

00:12:41.800 i want to see the evidence that allowed them to do this there may be maybe in the real world

00:12:49.000 in an actual republic they would have to produce those documents and say how did you obtain this

00:12:55.440 warrant and if you can show reason for for obtaining this but you're spying on a member of the press

00:13:04.440 you're spying on the president and his personal attorney

00:13:10.660 i yeah i mean that is craziness look at let's just say you are um you're you're being investigated

00:13:22.160 for a crime and you didn't do that crime and you know you didn't do that crime and so you hire a

00:13:29.900 really good attorney and you tell him look i'll tell you what i think is going on because if it's

00:13:36.060 not my head they're going to demand blood so who's doing this to me who's setting me up

00:13:42.020 you have a personal attorney and he starts to do investigations to be able to exonerate you

00:13:49.660 but you're up against the united states government and the united states government

00:13:54.160 just goes and gets all of your phone records between you and the attorney and then tracks

00:14:02.020 what your attorney is going to and who he's talking to do you realize how dangerous this is

00:14:08.100 if the if they can do that to the president of the united states and his personal attorney

00:14:14.620 do you think they'll hesitate for a second to do that to any of us

00:14:19.720 this is madness if you're looking for any proof to justify what they did in the report

00:14:26.100 after a long night of reading that bad boy you're going to be disappointed because there's nothing in

00:14:31.080 that report you can read their page and a half summary and pretty much get everything that you

00:14:35.720 know you're going to find in there in fact you're going to get um you're going to get old news old

00:14:42.780 news that we have already shown is not true with audio tapes with documents with court cases we've

00:14:51.540 already shown you that these facts are not true but it's in there as if they're facts we'll go there

00:14:58.100 here in just a second give me one minute then we're going to come right back to the uh right back to the

00:15:02.060 broadcast when you say the word luxury what pops into your head a lamborghini perhaps man i've

00:15:11.720 pulled aside a guy who is in a lamborghini at a stoplight the other day i've never seen one i

00:15:18.260 mean i've never you know i go to car shows and stuff yeah but i've never have you ever driven in

00:15:22.380 one i've never driven in one i don't think i'd ever be able to get out but i've never driven in

00:17:10.740 nikki haley i did an interview with her um i love nikki haley i just love her i think she is the real

00:17:21.420 deal um and she talks about you know i i took her through uh her time from you know being for marco

00:17:32.120 rubio and everything else and how she changed then how she turned down the job at the state department

00:17:38.060 and and and what her relationship was like and then all of the inner workings of i mean she was

00:17:44.300 she was there and they were trying to recruit her to thwart the president and she she left and she's

00:17:54.180 like you guys are crazy not the way the system works yeah you don't you don't do this um and it's

00:18:01.200 fascinating that podcast is out tomorrow did you get any indication that would disagree with my belief

00:18:07.440 that her chances of running in 2024 are 100 percent oh i think it's

00:18:14.100 hmm it's not high 90s is it no i think it's probably 110 okay all right it's happening right

00:18:20.040 i mean no she didn't say that she's you know i'm sure she didn't announce yeah but she interview

00:18:24.520 but she was like i'm just you know i'm just gonna go to work and just kind of put my head down to the

00:18:29.780 ground and we'll see what happens she's been like the only person who's been able to walk this

00:18:34.120 line of you know still remaining independent and not coming off as just a cheerleader for the

00:18:40.120 president no matter what's happening but also like you know what being honest and saying when the

00:18:45.020 president does a good job he's done a good job and defending him when he should be defended and

00:18:48.280 she's done a good job with that she's handled herself really really well and she has taken on

00:18:54.120 some mad dogs and one i mean she is a she's you know did you read the story yesterday about how

00:19:01.980 which democrat flipped on impeachment and said no don't impeach because they're not going to go

00:19:07.620 with mike pence they'll go with somebody like nikki haley uh and uh we don't want to we don't want

00:19:14.640 to go up against nikki haley i thought that was i thought that was stunning anyway that podcast comes

00:19:20.580 out if you're a blaze subscriber comes out tomorrow uh and so you can listen to we have some clips of it

00:19:25.800 today uh but listen to it for the next couple of days at blaze tv.com and you can actually see it

00:19:31.880 and everything else then it will go up uh on saturday for for everybody else but you if you're a blaze tv

00:19:37.160 subscriber you get it a couple of days early uh okay so let's let's go i i still am not in control of

00:19:48.220 myself enough to read the washington post article but it is coming that one's unbelievable un

00:19:56.620 believable i had to pause oh after the un because all of these words were coming to my head that would

00:20:08.460 nicely fit in between un and believable that i shan't say uh uh so let's just talk about a

00:20:18.200 couple of things uh in the actual committee report and uh and what adam schiff said about it

00:20:26.640 okay so tell me some of the things that are in the report that just blew your mind well first and

00:20:33.280 foremost i was looking very specifically for things that they would maybe add to our case like anything

00:20:38.900 that we have done anything that we've said over the past month and a half or so in our chalkboards

00:20:43.600 in our shows specials you mean anything that would debunk what we've said would debunk it yeah and

00:20:48.460 because i i think we've been pretty vocal about that like we want them to do it you know we we

00:20:52.720 criticize us please it's going to help us we want to know we want to know we want to know if we got

00:20:56.860 anything wrong so i looked specifically because a lot of the accusations or a lot of the case boils

00:21:01.560 around that uh lutzenko the former prosecutor general because he said a lot of things he's the

00:21:06.380 one that talked about the do not prosecute list he's the one that said that the ambassador

00:21:09.800 yovanovich was bad um that's the entire case kind of goes around him as far as getting rid of that

00:21:15.580 ambassador a lot of this stuff and rudy giuliani has even said he's not the best he's not the best

00:21:21.820 guy you know you don't know because he's kind of said a little of a little of both so you you can't

00:21:27.300 take his word as gospel okay i'm i'm for that i think everybody in ukraine is corrupt that's

00:21:34.920 that's evergreen for any ukrainian yeah right official right um so i i looked through that i

00:21:40.180 looked through that after i read through it and i just saw how many times they mentioned lutzenko

00:21:43.760 over 60 times in this 300 page report over 60 times he sprinkled throughout the entire thing

00:21:50.260 and so you know this is the guy that joe biden said they finally put a good guy in office they got

00:21:57.060 rid of the bad guy and they put this guy in okay well now they're saying he's totally dirty do they

00:22:03.220 have any evidence at all all they said and this is what we've seen in the past is they kept saying

00:22:08.900 well he was corrupt he was corrupt he was corrupt that's like okay fine let me show me evidence i

00:22:13.060 looked the footnotes everything they never gave a specific charge but the same thing was shoken

00:22:18.680 his predecessor they never actually lodged lodged uh threw a specific charge at him it was all just

00:22:25.300 oh he was corrupt take our word for it fact the if i'm not mistaken the state department

00:22:30.160 actually came back and apologized for what they did to shoken right correct that's correct to

00:22:36.180 the ukrainians so where is the evidence and we're not saying this like yeah well there's no evidence

00:22:42.380 if there's evidence that he's corrupt where is it in this official report the only thing they gave

00:22:48.620 for any kind of evidence was this recant and the recant they linked back to the same article that

00:22:53.480 we've already debunked unbelievable so incredible thank you so much listening to glenn don't go

00:25:22.980 the strength right now to read the washington post article it's an article uh not an opinion piece

00:25:30.820 gop embraces a debunked ukrainian conspiracy to defend trump from impeachment

00:25:36.980 um republicans promotion of trump's ukraine conspiracy theory is the latest example of their

00:25:44.360 capitulation to him and of the gop's rapid transformation on russia from a party that for

00:25:51.220 decades celebrated its hawkish stance towards the kremlin to one that is reluctant to take a hard

00:25:57.080 line and risk trump's wrath i take a hard line all the time against russia i know a lot now there are

00:26:03.620 some people who are on television some people that are in washington that are not but donald trump

00:26:09.140 has a much harsher uh policy on on on russia than obama ever did they sold the kremlin

00:26:19.000 uranium they sold our uranium to the russians and let's not forget the obama conversation with

00:26:28.540 medvedev that was captured on camera and microphone about after the election he'd have a lot more uh

00:26:35.420 leeway to do what putin wanted him to do and let's not also forget that the democrats have done the

00:26:41.100 exact opposite of some republicans and now all of a sudden to them uh russia is the greatest threat

00:26:48.720 on earth and uh it never was before before it was the 80s are calling and they want their policy back

00:26:55.760 we were voting for that guy we were voting for that guy when you when the republican or the democrats

00:27:01.780 and the press uh went and decided they were going to vote for the guy who said yeah right well the

00:27:08.240 80s called they want their policy they want their policies back right we should point out the front

00:27:11.980 runner of the democratic uh for the democratic nomination right now was in the administration

00:27:15.960 that believed that russia was such a non-threat that they could mock and say that you know uh mock

00:27:21.700 him as an 80s you know ivan drago situation yeah it's not they've been a big threat the entire time

00:27:27.220 and the fact that you're on the bandwagon now i guess is is good but i mean it's not real it's not

00:27:33.420 real i mean it's obviously just opposing trump if it was real did you guys know that uh i think it

00:27:38.960 was ohio was just hacked in the last uh 18 right uh election they were hacked by the russians they

00:27:47.420 tried to they tried to point out they stopped it well they said that it was a very very low budget

00:27:53.020 kind of attempt well okay uh we can stop low budget what are the russians doing

00:27:59.940 do are we is anyone even looking at this by the way none of us have ever cozied up to the russians

00:28:06.740 we've never said the russians aren't a threat we've never said putin is a good guy i've never

00:28:11.000 none of us i don't think have ever said any of that there was a tucker carlson monologue that said

00:28:16.040 all of those things just the other night but i know there are some there are some there are some but

00:28:19.780 it's i it's it's it's exaggerated to say that most republicans i was talking about the people in

00:28:24.120 this room right i know you gotta be careful because there are some people who have who have

00:28:29.000 the right some republicans have totally capitulated to everything trump says and does and it's they

00:28:34.600 have it's it's just have it's insanity yeah it's insanity follow his policies right not his words

00:28:40.240 follow his policies he is very tough on rough russia tougher than anybody has been since i think the cold

00:28:46.880 war by far yeah so certainly close i mean tougher than russia it's ever obama it's not even close not

00:28:52.900 even close and and this this phone tapping situation they better have a warrant for that

00:28:59.800 and i'd like to see how they got that warrant can you do that through fisa it's not a fisa think so

00:29:05.940 we can't we don't think that it's a fisa i don't think you could because there's who's who's the

00:29:10.480 foreign who's a foreign agent yeah yeah it does look like by the way we talked about uh harness and

00:29:15.900 those two guys lev lev uh parnas and i can never remember the other guy's name but bottom line

00:29:20.800 they look like they immigrated early in their lives so yes they would be u.s citizens would not qualify

00:29:25.060 here right uh so uh but they can claim it's part of the russian investigation maybe possibly are they

00:29:31.820 trying to tie that in maybe you still have to be able to present evidence you're going after what kind

00:29:38.860 of evidence pat would you have to have to go after somebody that you are going after and he's the

00:29:48.100 president of the united states and you say i need all of the phone records between the president

00:29:54.000 and his personal attorney i've i don't know i mean that's insane yeah you'd have to have solid

00:30:02.700 evidence you would think the only explanation grant that warrant that makes any sense is that it was

00:30:07.820 caught up in another separate investigation like the southern district of new york where they were

00:30:13.060 able to access the records though i don't that does not and they're just handing those records over to

00:30:18.080 the and that wouldn't be a fisa situation though maybe someone just mailed them to them you know

00:30:22.020 maybe it's just some helpful helpful person just like you know like let's say like in ukraine

00:30:26.760 where there is a big situation going on and they just happen to have all the records of paul manafort

00:30:32.340 put together in a nice ledger and they just happen to get to the press somehow uh that's not ukraine

00:30:37.400 investigate you know in in uh inserting themselves in our election process at all by getting the guy who

00:30:43.560 was running one of the campaigns fired and arrested um and put in prison um but maybe there's just a

00:30:49.700 helpful person who was walking down the street saw the records on the ground picked them up and put

00:30:54.780 them in the mail right to adam schiff something like that may have happened they happen to be on

00:30:58.960 the ground that you know what sometimes people drop things and maybe he thought they were adam

00:31:02.500 schiffs and just sent them there and adam opened up and said oh my gosh i didn't ask for these but

00:31:07.200 look at this is important information and i think we have to bring it to the american people

00:31:11.100 i will tell you i talked to mike lee yesterday and i said uh so uh mike

00:31:17.260 what's the senate gonna do and he said i don't i don't know yet and i said um

00:31:24.760 they're not pushing for a trial uh well he's meeting with the white house attorney today

00:31:29.880 and the white house is kind of dictating the kind of the plan um mike thinks there should be

00:31:35.760 uh a trial absolutely i think uh it was i think he said that on the air didn't he yeah i think so

00:31:42.580 um and i i said to him okay so there should be yeah he did today um but there's there's something

00:31:51.400 else i said so if there's not a trial mike if if some reason why god only knows why trump says you

00:31:59.620 know what they have nothing here just blow it off which i think is a mistake uh will you open up

00:32:08.760 on the intelligence committee for the senate will you open up an investigation on the whistleblower

00:32:15.500 and everybody else and how this happened because if there's not enough evidence and this is the show

00:32:23.060 that we all know it is these people have to pay for that they have dragged us through four years of

00:32:32.400 this spent millions of dollars lied deceit uh hiding witnesses working and colluding with the press i mean

00:32:43.280 somebody has to pay for that or we're a banana republic and he did come out and say i can't tell

00:32:50.080 you who he said but there are a couple of people who are chair people on a couple of committees and

00:32:55.260 they are talking privately about uh we want to open up investigations because this is all dirty i hope

00:33:02.660 they do that i hope they do too too often the republicans just roll over and play dead too often they

00:33:08.140 just capitulate and they forget about it and they sweep it under the rug this needs to be dealt with

00:33:12.880 this i think it's really important we should to deal with this we should point out that they have a

00:33:18.100 real opportunity to do that and they haven't failed yet i mean we kind of assume the failure going to

00:33:23.640 because they always suck they always let us always suck i mean it's true uh but they do have a a senate

00:33:30.120 trial coming up and they control it constitutionally they can do whatever they want with it uh-huh so

00:33:36.620 let's see them do it yeah like overturning obamacare well they don't have a constitutional right

00:33:41.780 to overturn obamacare they do have a constitutional right to handle the senate trial however they want

00:33:45.880 and so they need to utilize that and actually make the case i'm not saying i'm not giving them a pass

00:33:50.180 here but we should at least wait until they fail or at least begin failing before we say they failed

00:33:54.420 i'm not saying that they failed yes you are saying there's a really good there's a really good chance

00:34:00.520 they're going to and i'm going to be really pissed over under the chances nikki haley runs for

00:34:05.440 president in 2024 because that's 110 percent yeah uh what is your percentage in your mind that they

00:34:11.600 fail here that they fail yes 140 yeah right that's what i'm saying i definitely over the chances of

00:34:17.300 nikki haley uh okay so uh one other thing i want to talk about you were you were on a transgender

00:34:24.820 uh athlete uh and you have so much hate that's inside of you no i just want to show you that there's

00:34:32.840 no difference between a trans woman you know who's who's actually biologically a man still

00:34:37.680 and the and the actual biological woman there's no you won't be able to tell now there's they're

00:34:42.300 lined up here in australia uh hang on just a second if you need to go to the cry room you can go to

00:34:49.220 the cry room go to your safe space right now because pat only goes worse from here no it's this is

00:34:54.300 better this is i'm going to show you that there's no there's no difference difference okay what was

00:34:58.500 that butter commercial there's no difference remember that one no there's no difference here

00:35:02.760 so they're lined up and they're about to play uh australian rules handball and if you could

00:35:10.100 play the uh video for us uh you'll see that you can't tell oh my gosh can you pause it for a second

00:35:18.760 pause it right there no i don't know you can't you cannot tell i can't tell i can't tell which is now

00:35:27.560 he has six foot two 220 pound man and which are the women there's no way to tell it is i am it's

00:35:35.240 on the line it's on the line well i will say she does have breasts and not like my breasts she's

00:35:41.320 had implants she's had implants okay so she's living her life for her she was quite recently a he um like

00:35:48.900 and was playing australian rose football which is rugby to us and but apparently didn't dominate

00:35:54.540 the men and so now um dominate the dominating the women to the extent in rugby where they kicked her

00:36:01.320 out of the league and now she's playing handball and dominating that league instead i that's a i just

00:36:07.020 come on can we not i think johnny knoxville made a movie that was roughly similar to this uh except he

00:36:13.660 was i think i think he was saying he was going to be in the special olympics and dominate the special

00:36:17.020 olympics and you know it's funny how how oh my i i not comparing i'm saying uh and i don't know why

00:36:25.740 you're saying that would be a bad comparison what are you saying um i it is interesting though saying

00:36:30.940 the worst thing one of us i don't even know one of us glenn's saying quiet so he's i'm i'm what i'm

00:36:36.200 saying is totally fine you can't just until you can categorize it it's totally fine you have to say

00:36:43.180 something until people can read minds yeah and that's coming soon it is i'm totally good first

00:36:48.980 of all the knoxville movie how is it made this recently it was only what 10 years ago it was

00:36:52.920 okay to say you could become you can pretend to be in the special olympics and dominate like that was

00:36:57.920 okay that recently but beyond that stephen king called me satan's uh mentally mentally challenged

00:37:04.640 younger brother right so doesn't that apparently okay doesn't that qualify me as a special olympian

00:37:10.660 it's fair it's a fair question all right it's a fair question um but that is a it's like a joke

00:37:17.640 right like you it is to be able to just change i'm no longer a boy i'm now a girl and then you

00:37:24.200 dominate women's sports yeah can i can it's happening all over the world all over and it's and it is

00:37:29.560 hurting women it's hurting women what happened to the sensibility of protecting women

00:37:34.520 by the way the left is supposedly so concerned about protecting women where are they now what

00:37:41.440 now he's much worse than me i think the line is clear now pat is the big violation here wait a

00:37:46.540 minute what is it you're actually thinking though what huh he's thinking something much worse than

00:37:50.840 i'm thinking yeah we don't even have to be you're able to read minds we just know i'm thinking

00:37:55.460 something that is absolutely not problematic that's what i'm thinking

00:37:59.420 all right thanks pat appreciate it pat gray unleashed on blaze radio and tv we're gonna stop

00:38:08.440 in and we're gonna see uh nick to palo uh today also john solomon uh who is suddenly it's totally

00:38:15.400 okay to have the government gather his phone records totally fine totally fine to spy on a journalist

00:38:25.860 now in america jeez if adam schiff hasn't become putin well no you actually have to throw people

00:38:34.820 off the top of a roof and he's only doing that figuratively at this point not literally so he's

00:38:41.480 not putin yet but he's on the road all right our uh our sponsor this half hour um is rec tech

00:46:49.480 how are you where you been lover this impeachment hearing thing is just relentless i gave up on it

00:46:59.460 we already know how it's going to work impeached in the house and then he's not going to get convicted

00:47:05.380 in this it's like following a bad uh judd apatow movie you know the boyfriend's going to be the

00:47:12.600 idiot at the end and the girlfriend's the hero right so uh i suggest you start watching more

00:47:17.960 wrestling and football glenn don't follow this crap i think you know i i really i follow it against my

00:47:25.240 will i follow it because i'm paid to follow it uh but i honestly kind of i don't even know i have no

00:47:33.180 idea how anyone thinks this is going to end up in their favor how does any democrat think this is going

00:47:39.640 to end up in their favor i think at this point they're just doing it because they're not

00:47:45.520 legislating they're not doing their jobs so they have to look busy and they've wanted trump's head

00:47:51.620 since he came down the escalator but you're right it's going to blow up in their face and uh i went to

00:47:58.120 school with uh jonathan turley i went to george washington and he tried to cheat off me so did he

00:48:03.800 really you don't think i went to that school did you well i mean there's a chance you're a pretty

00:48:10.220 you're a pretty smart guy but sounding like that i don't i had a 2.4 business administration at the

00:48:16.980 university of maine and that's with cheating right right uh so early's good so nick what have you been

00:48:24.560 what have you been paying attention to what have you been following what is yeah the nfl i've got a

00:48:30.100 real gambling problem but uh so what do you think of uh this uh colin kaepernick thing what was it

00:48:37.620 had an opening they're going through everybody i think they called my daughter you know would you

00:48:44.000 be willing to try out kaepernick nothing uh i called your daughter too yeah um okay that's disturbing

00:48:51.260 that's really i have no idea how old she is that was just a joke but even i have a daughter who's 30

00:48:58.160 in 30 31 that's still disturbing that you're calling no it isn't yes it would be oh come on uh

00:49:04.660 kaepernick is a he's a patriot he's a true american he loves this country let me i just his haircut

00:49:11.440 says i hate whitey okay i can't stand his terrorist beard he's biracial he acts like he's two thousand

00:49:20.080 percent black he's at alcatraz the other day talking to uh native americans uh you really think

00:49:28.120 did you really think a team was going to bite on him the stadiums are still empty because of the crap

00:49:35.460 he pulled and uh who would who would be dumb enough even hey when the detroit lions pass on you

00:49:43.180 not exactly the new england patriots there yeah i mean you know i was just i was i was thinking

00:49:50.560 about it when he did this you know he did his own tryout and then he wanted his own place to do the

00:49:55.360 tryout and i thought what team even if he was great what team wants this kind of hassle uh all the

00:50:04.660 time this kind of drama all the time it would destroy a team i i agree with that but then you know

00:50:11.980 belichick went after antonio brown so i started to have second thoughts um but yeah the guy's a

00:50:19.040 cancer he did such damage to to the nfl i really believe these half empty stadiums which you don't

00:50:26.340 hear about uh have to do with that whole thing about nailing down he started all of it and there's no

00:50:33.320 team desperate enough uh to to bring this on i i really believe that he's finished he's gonna find

00:50:41.240 something else nike's made him a zillionaire so why why does anybody even buy anything nike anymore

00:50:47.380 i don't know i honestly don't know let's not forget that colin kaepernick lost his job to blaine

00:50:51.800 gabbert before he started kneeling this is not an nfl logic and reason into it stew

00:50:57.260 it's wrong with you this is about emotion and the racist country and gender and and uh the systemic

00:51:05.320 racism that keeps this guy down i have to tell you i think there's a massive backlash coming to all

00:51:10.940 this it is everything in me says that it's falling apart and there's just going to be a just a large

00:51:21.380 group of americans who just stand up and go shut up shut up as long as they stand up during the

00:51:27.560 national anthem i don't have a problem with it when you say it back i thought you were talking about

00:51:31.740 the impeachment again are we talking about kaepernick or the impeachment who's more anti-american adam

00:51:38.220 schiff or uh colin kaepernick did you did you see what uh at&t and shift did they they somehow or

00:51:45.280 another got the phone records of the co-chair noon nunez and the president and his uh and his personal

00:51:54.700 attorney that's insane how did they do that that's that's hacking i'm uh the the the washington post

00:52:03.700 said presumably presumably with a warrant well right there you're supposed to as a as a journalistic

00:52:11.820 publication isn't presumably the thing you don't want to say

00:52:14.760 we we heard fourth and yeah that they got a i mean we just presume that they're doing this the right

00:52:22.540 way the the bathroom attendant at the verizon building heard a guy rocking to a guy who got

00:52:28.360 nunez this is all underhanded it's all baloney uh adam schiff is creepy he's drunk with power

00:52:37.060 and uh just uh after after two and a half years of the russia investigation i i can't believe people

00:52:44.500 uh still saying yes trump should be impeached this country deserves what it gets i'm telling you i don't

00:52:51.000 think people are saying that nobody nobody i talked to over the holiday nobody was talking about this well

00:52:58.000 that's a great that's a great sample size glenn you and your uncle and no no no but no no but i've

00:53:04.500 asked i've asked other people as well i mean were you really having arguments about this at the at the

00:53:11.140 dinner table because at the dinner table even my dinner table during the election there was all kinds

00:53:16.700 of back and forth and you know polite but all kinds of back and forth not on this everybody's just like i

00:53:23.940 i don't care well i got my sister-in-law on a headlock we knocked over the turkey and then

00:53:28.740 cranberry so i almost choked her out and then she saw it my way trump is clean as a whistle we're gonna

00:53:35.720 get uh back to the news here in a second but nick before before we take a break here uh this this uh

00:53:42.220 saturday glenn beck is going on the stage in salt lake city uh for his christmas show which some have

00:53:49.500 described as stand-up comedy in the past um now i'm interested to see what your opinion would be

00:53:58.380 this is something like this and i'm wondering if there's a way if we were to get you video of some

00:54:03.000 of this performance don't if you would critique it dare and and and let us know if glenn is actually

00:54:08.220 good at this activity oh sort of like a dancing with the stars thing i'll be one of my gosh oh my

00:54:14.340 gosh yeah i don't want to say the word roast but i mean no i don't think i couldn't do a roast on the

00:54:20.840 glenn beck show i can't even say poop without getting arrested how am i gonna do a roast but i

00:54:26.080 would love to see this footage no are you dressed like an angel no no i have thought about that in

00:54:32.360 the past you know what nick honestly yeah uh this was something they've been asking me to do this

00:54:36.780 because we used to i used to do about 30 40 uh shows a year and as you know stand-up comedy is

00:54:44.880 really hard and you have to really you know you work on it well this is a one-off show that

00:54:53.060 you know i'm just going out and doing and i i'm so nervous it's just going to be flop sweat

00:54:59.560 alcohol is for glenn that's for the love of that's the first thing you put in your rider

00:55:06.820 i want a six-pack of mick ultra right in my uh dressing room seeing that i'm an alcoholic that

00:55:14.280 might well it may it would work for a good show quickly a thousand apologies uh weed is what

00:55:20.080 no i would love to see that if you're a funny guy you did radio you shouldn't be nervous you talk

00:55:28.660 to 10 million people a week yeah come on relax yeah they're mormons they'll laugh at everything

00:55:33.020 all right nick to paulo nick dip you can find his comedy special a breath of fresh air uh you can

00:55:42.820 find that uh at nickdip.com you can watch it for free nickdip.com uh nick to paulo thank you so much

00:55:49.540 for joining us uh we're gonna you bet we're gonna go to uh maybe some of the opening statement from

00:55:55.160 jerry nadler here in just a second i don't know if that's worth it but we want to make sure

00:55:59.240 that uh uh we get jonathan tourley's uh testimony in and john solomon who was spied on

00:56:07.560 uh i mean does anybody have a problem with the journalists being tracked by the united states

00:56:13.440 government because that's what they just did well presumably they did it the right way though

00:56:17.720 presumably yeah that's how i'm gonna say everything now because they certainly don't

00:56:22.040 presume donald trump's innocence ever ever right presumably he had the best interests of the nation

00:56:27.880 in mind when he made the call to ukraine yeah because you could certainly presumably say it was

00:56:33.140 all about his own political gain but you could also say presumably he cared about the country he's the

00:56:37.120 president of the united states maybe that's well the surprise here is is that the press is presuming

00:56:41.520 innocence when it comes to uh uh schiff and the democrats and their impeachment uh i'd like to see

00:56:48.680 presumably how they did that uh and how they presumably did that legally but what the heck

00:56:56.420 that's just me and apparently uh jonathan turley as well as you will hear in a few minutes all right

00:57:03.780 my patriot supply prepping is not like it used to be i mean if you were stocking up food as a hedge

00:57:10.440 against disaster you were thought of as a bit of an of a nut uh and the food you were able to put back

00:57:17.460 um the the stuff would go bad quickly it tasted horribly it was just really bad my patriot supply

00:57:24.920 revolutionized things more people today understand that being prepared for any kind of disaster is

00:57:31.000 important natural or otherwise prepping went down a bit when donald trump went into office because some

00:57:37.120 people thought the danger that we were all prepping for you know was tied directly to barack obama but

00:57:42.100 it wasn't it's our financial situation it's our it's our electrical grid it's our communications with

00:57:48.500 one another if you're responsible i want you to check out my patriot supply right now you can save

00:57:54.420 70 70 on a two-week food kit with guaranteed two two-day delivery at preparewithglenn.com

00:58:02.160 the offer is not going to last but here's the good news my patriot supply will if you think you

00:58:08.540 you just can't afford to prepare you're wrong on all fronts on that my patriot supply has payment

00:58:15.680 plans and options that will fit any budget so don't wait believe it or not this makes a good

00:58:20.720 grandfather or a father gift to your children if they are grown and out of the house save 70 now on

00:58:29.580 a two-week food kit with guaranteed two-day delivery at preparewithglenn.com preparewithglenn.com

00:58:36.400 10 seconds break for station id

00:58:38.540 let's quickly pop in to uh doug collins he is a republican from georgia he is now

00:58:55.600 uh he's a ranking uh judiciary committee ranking member

00:58:59.440 he's making an opening statement for the gop not been here before this is a new room

00:59:05.000 it's new rules uh it's a new month we've even got cute little uh stickers for our staff so we can

00:59:12.500 come in because we want to make this important this is impeachment because we've done such a

00:59:17.080 terrible job of it in this committee before but what's not new is basically what's just been

00:59:22.840 reiterated by the chairman what's not new is the facts what's not new is it's the same sad story

00:59:30.660 what's interesting even before i get into to my part of my opening statement was is this what was

00:59:36.120 just said by the chairman we worry we went back to a redo of mr mauler we're also saying quoting him

00:59:43.020 saying the attention of the american people should be on foreign interference i agree with him completely

00:59:47.740 except i guess the american people did not include the judiciary committee because we didn't take it

00:59:52.840 up we didn't have hearings we didn't do anything to delve deeply into this issue we passed election

00:59:59.060 bills but did not get into the in-depth part of what mr mauler talked about taking his own report

01:00:04.100 and having hearings about that we didn't do it so i guess the american people doesn't include

01:00:08.700 the house judiciary committee you know the interesting art we also just heard an interesting

01:00:13.720 discussion we're going to have a lot of interesting discussion today about the constitution and other

01:00:18.860 things but we also talked about the founders what's interesting is that the chairman talked a lot

01:00:23.260 about the founders from the quotes and again this is why we have the hearing about the founders being

01:00:27.260 concerned about foreign influence but what he also didn't quote was the founders being really really

01:00:32.060 concerned about political impeachment because you just don't like the guy you haven't liked him since

01:00:38.600 november of 2016 the chairman has talked about impeachment since last year when he was elected chairman

01:00:45.860 two years ago november 6th 17th before he's even sworn in as chairman so don't tell me this is about new

01:00:52.500 evidence and new things and new stuff we may have a new hearing room we may have new mics and we may have

01:00:57.240 chairs that aren't comfortable but this is nothing new folks this is sad so what do we have here today you

01:01:04.440 know what i'm thinking i looked at this and what is interesting is there's two things that have become

01:01:12.140 very clear this impeachment is not really about facts if it was i believe the other committees would

01:01:17.720 have sent over recommendations for impeachment no they're putting it on this committee because if it

01:01:21.980 goes badly i guess they want to blame adam schiff's committee and the his and others want to blame this

01:01:25.760 committee for it going bad um but they're already drafting articles don't be even fooled they're already

01:01:31.240 getting ready for this we've already went after this with the ukraine after numerous failings of

01:01:35.260 muller cohen annulments the list goes emoluments the list goes on but the american people are

01:01:40.700 obviously failing to see us legislate but if you want to know what's really driving this there's two

01:01:45.340 things it's called the clock and the calendar the clock and the calendar most people in life if you

01:01:50.420 want to know what they truly value you look at their clock you look at their checkbook and their

01:01:53.740 calendar you know what they value that's what this committee values time they want to do it before the end of

01:02:00.200 the year why because the chairman said it just a second ago because we're scared of the elections

01:02:04.340 next year we're scared of the election that we'll lose again so we've got to do this now the clock

01:02:10.920 in the calendar what's driving impeachment not the facts when we understand this that's what the

01:02:15.800 witnesses here will say today what do we have here today what is really interesting over today

01:02:20.920 and for the next few weeks is america will see why most people don't go to law school

01:02:26.120 no offense to our professors but please really we're bringing you in here today to testify on

01:02:34.440 stuff that most of you have already written about all four for the opinions that we already know

01:02:39.100 out of the classrooms that maybe you're getting ready for finals in to discuss things that you

01:02:45.120 probably haven't even had a chance unless you're really good on tv or watching the hearings for the

01:02:48.600 last couple of weeks you couldn't have possibly actually digested the adam schiff report from

01:02:53.000 yesterday or the republican response in any real way now we can be theoretical all we want but the

01:02:59.060 american people is really going to look at this and say huh what are we doing because there's no fact

01:03:06.160 witnesses planned for this committee that's an interesting thing frankly there's no plan at all

01:03:10.140 except next week an ambiguous hearing on the presentation from the hips the other committee that

01:03:14.840 sent us the report and judiciary committee which i'm not still sure what they want us to present on

01:03:19.120 and nothing else no plan i asked the chairman before we left for thanksgiving to stay in touch

01:03:25.340 let's talk about what we have because history will shine a bright light on us starting this morning

01:03:29.460 crickets until i asked for a witness the other day and let's just say that didn't go well

01:03:35.440 there's no whistleblower and by the way it was proved today that he's not or she's not afforded

01:03:41.580 the protection of identity it's not in the uh statute it's just something that was

01:03:46.900 discussed by adam schiff we also don't have adam schiff who wrote the report he said yesterday in

01:03:52.020 a press conference i'm not going to i'll send um staff to do that he's not going to but you know

01:04:00.060 to me if he was wanting to he'd come begging to us but you know here's the problem it sums it up very

01:04:05.580 simply like this just 19 minutes afternoon on inauguration day 2017 the washington post ran the

01:04:11.380 headline the campaign to impeach the president has begun mark zabb who would later become the

01:04:17.020 attorney for the infamous whistleblower tweeted in january 2017 the coup has started the impeachment

01:04:21.260 will follow ultimately and in may of this year al green says if we don't impeach the president

01:04:25.220 he'll get reflected if you want to know what's happening here we go why did everything that i say

01:04:31.320 up to this point about no fact witnesses nothing for the judiciary committee which spent two and a

01:04:35.720 half weeks before this hearing was even held under clinton two and a half weeks we didn't even find

01:04:40.840 your names out until less than 48 hours ago wow this is a absolute circus and i think jonathan turley

01:04:49.320 is about to say it best on what they should do and we'll cover that coming up in just a minute

01:07:46.340 The clerk will report.

01:07:49.100 Mr. Chairman, there are 24 ayes and 17 noes.

01:07:51.760 The motion to table is agreed to.

01:07:55.080 Mr. Chairman, I have a parliamentary inquiry.

01:07:56.880 Fifteen seconds.

01:07:58.880 The gentleman will state his parliament.

01:08:21.760 This is just insanity.

01:08:26.880 It's just insanity what's happening in Washington, D.C.

01:08:31.760 They're now arguing over what's an objection and what's a proper objection.

01:08:37.280 They're doing all these parliamentary things.

01:08:39.300 And Nadler is behaving a little like Schiff on this, just pushing it through.

01:08:44.620 And, you know, I can't even ask questions about the parliamentary rulings.

01:08:49.060 Go ahead and bring some of this up.

01:08:51.280 Period.

01:08:52.420 That's the reply.

01:08:52.960 I'm asking how will they be applied here, sir?

01:08:55.360 They will be applied according to the rules.

01:08:58.520 But not answering your question.

01:09:00.020 A circular response.

01:09:01.440 Thank you.

01:09:01.800 And, Mr. Chairman, can you please also iterate the schedule going forward?

01:09:05.240 In other words, are you planning to hold additional hearings?

01:09:07.540 And if so, when do you?

01:09:08.240 The gentleman will suspend.

01:09:09.340 Releasing or?

01:09:09.840 That is not a proper parliamentary inquiry.

01:09:12.380 Without objection, all other opening statements will be included in the record.

01:09:15.680 What's going on here is a bunch of nonsense, basically.

01:09:18.240 But the interesting part about it is, for whatever reason, Democrats want this to go fast.

01:09:22.420 I don't think Republicans, honestly, have much of a preference.

01:09:25.020 I mean, I think you could make an argument that fast or slow is better for Republicans.

01:09:27.980 But they're just trying to slow it down because the Democrats don't want it to go slow.

01:09:33.140 And I just have a feeling that, you know, Swalwell switched his vote, said, I don't think we should impeach him.

01:09:45.460 That's, you know, pretty incredible.

01:09:48.720 Or at least he hinted in that direction yesterday.

01:09:51.880 And I'm wondering if the GOP isn't right, that they've kind of moved this over to the judiciary, so you don't know who to put the blame on, on where it fell apart.

01:10:06.420 And the co-director of the Supreme Court Litigation Clinic at Stanford Law School.

01:10:11.260 She is the co-author of several leading case books, including a monograph entitled Keeping Faith with the Constitution, and dozens of scholarly articles.

01:10:19.280 She served as a law clerk to Justice Harry Blackburn of the United States Supreme Court and as a deputy assistant attorney general in the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice, where she was responsible, among other things, for reviewing the work of the department's voting section.

01:10:36.440 Professor Carlin earned three degrees from Yale University, a B.A. in history, an M.A. in history, and a J.D. from Yale Law School.

01:10:44.760 Michael Gerhardt is the Burton Craig Distinguished Professor of Jurisprudence.

01:10:48.920 So now what they're doing today, and the only reason why I'm covering any of this is I really want to hear Jonathan Turley.

01:10:54.840 He's the one that people know.

01:10:58.880 He pisses people off on both sides.

01:11:02.620 He was for the Clinton impeachment.

01:11:05.600 He was then also for war crimes against George W. Bush and his administration.

01:11:12.140 And he is vehemently against this, and his reasoning is quite remarkable and very, very well stated in his 54-page statement.

01:11:25.320 He was also chair of public interest law at George Washington University Law School, where he teaches torts, criminal procedure, and constitutional law.

01:11:33.940 After a stint at Tulane Law School, Professor Turley joined the GW law faculty in 1990, and in 1998 became the youngest chaired professor in the school's history.

01:11:44.500 He has written over three dozen academic articles for a variety of leading law schools, of leading law journals, I'm sorry, and his articles on legal and policy issues appear frequently in national publications.

01:11:56.980 A Chicago native, Professor Turley earned degrees from the University of Chicago, and Northwestern University School of Law.

01:12:04.320 As they're going through the resumes of these guys, it's interesting that Jerry Nadler has essentially lost an entire current Jerry Nadler from himself, from former Jerry Nadler, who was approximately 934 pounds.

01:12:21.080 Wow, I didn't even notice that.

01:12:22.240 Yeah, he has lost a ton of weight since the Clinton—you can watch the Clinton impeachment clips, where he's on the exact opposite side of all of these issues.

01:12:30.060 And that's why they keep getting posted, but I just keep seeing, did past Jerry Nadler eat current Jerry Nadler?

01:12:37.780 What?

01:12:39.320 Did you say maybe you vomited this Jerry Nadler out?

01:12:42.360 I think it's possible.

01:12:43.500 Yeah, it could be.

01:12:44.380 We need another investigation.

01:12:45.460 Get Mueller on the phone.

01:12:47.060 I just want to see—they just took the oath, and now they're telling him when you have to shut up.

01:12:56.800 And I wish that light would go off, but hopefully they're going to start with Turley.

01:13:00.880 No, they're not.

01:13:01.980 I don't think you're on the mic.

01:13:04.040 The selection of witnesses here is interesting, because there are plenty of Republican-leaning and Libertarian-leaning legal experts that have been critical of Trump here.

01:13:14.840 They have the opportunity to call three legal experts, and they call all liberals.

01:13:19.640 They don't go to, like, someone who can maybe understand both sides, but is siding with them.

01:13:23.420 They call all liberals, and then Turley is the Republican witness here, who has very often been on the side of the liberals.

01:13:30.220 But here he agrees with Republicans.

01:13:31.360 And there's no love.

01:13:33.260 What I like about Jonathan Turley is he's been outspoken many times against Donald Trump.

01:13:40.640 He does not have any love for Donald Trump at all.

01:13:44.080 He's just saying this is the wrong way to do this.

01:13:46.120 If you have a case, make it.

01:13:47.400 Yeah.

01:13:47.620 Go ahead.

01:13:48.120 Make the case.

01:13:48.880 Call the witnesses.

01:13:49.660 Go through the difficult process of impeachment if you believe impeachment's the right thing.

01:13:53.180 Don't just jam this through before Christmas.

01:13:55.460 Let's go through a little bit of his conclusion as we're hearing some of the others.

01:13:59.760 And keep the hearing up so we can dip in and out.

01:14:05.860 Let me give you a little bit here.

01:14:06.840 This is Noah Feldman, Harvard.

01:14:08.780 And last, how it applies to the question before you and before the American people, whether President Trump has committed impeachable offenses under the Constitution.

01:14:20.560 Let me begin by stating my conclusions.

01:14:25.020 The framers provided for the impeachment of the president because they feared that the president might abuse the power of his office for personal benefit, to corrupt the electoral process and ensure his reelection, or to subvert the national security of the United States.

01:14:42.980 High crimes and misdemeanors are abuses of power and of public trust connected to the office of the presidency.

01:14:52.300 On the basis of the testimony and the evidence before the House, President Trump has committed impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors by corruptly abusing the office of the presidency.

01:15:05.740 Okay.

01:15:06.700 Specifically, let me go off there.

01:15:08.820 You have the guy from the Democrats saying, yes, based on the evidence, he has done that.

01:15:14.440 Okay.

01:15:14.900 I want you to listen to what Turley has to say.

01:15:17.880 And I'm not sure we're going to be able to squeeze him in because we have John Solomon also coming up on the program.

01:15:23.540 He is really important to talk to today because we found out that Adam Schiff was tracking his phone calls.

01:15:31.220 Yeah.

01:15:31.420 And the entire impeachment inquiry is revolving around John Solomon and his reporting.

01:15:35.020 Yeah.

01:15:35.340 He's literally named all over the place in this investigation and, you know, been treated completely unfairly by the media.

01:15:43.340 And we will talk to him coming up in about 20 minutes from now, so stand by for that.

01:15:47.780 But I want to give you some of the highlights from the conclusion of Turley.

01:15:52.340 Now, listen to this.

01:15:52.920 He says, and let me be candid here for a second at the end of my statement.

01:15:56.840 I get it.

01:15:57.340 You're mad.

01:15:57.960 The president is mad.

01:15:58.840 My Democratic friends are mad.

01:16:00.140 My Republican friends are mad.

01:16:01.340 My wife is mad.

01:16:01.980 My kids are mad.

01:16:02.620 Even my dog is mad.

01:16:03.800 And Luna is a golden doodle and they are never mad, which is a legalistic opinion, apparently.

01:16:09.120 We are all mad.

01:16:09.980 And where has it taken us?

01:16:11.200 Will a slipshod impeachment make us less mad?

01:16:13.480 Or will it only give us an invitation for the madness to follow in every future administration?

01:16:18.200 That is why this is wrong.

01:16:19.500 It's not wrong because President Trump is right.

01:16:21.520 I mean, you could see he's trying to appeal to a sensible Democrat or someone in the middle or someone who's on the right.

01:16:29.480 Somebody who takes their oath seriously.

01:16:32.940 His call was anything but perfect and his reference to the Bidens was highly inappropriate.

01:16:37.080 It is not wrong because the House has no legitimate reason to investigate the Ukrainian controversy.

01:16:41.620 The use of military aid for quid pro quo to investigate one's political opponent, if proven, can be an impeachable offense.

01:16:48.380 It is not wrong because we are in election year.

01:16:50.400 There is no good time for an impeachment, but this process concerns the constitutional right to hold office in this term, not the next.

01:16:56.760 No, it is wrong because this is not how an American president should be impeached.

01:17:01.420 For two years, members of this committee have declared that criminal and impeachable acts were established for everything from treason to conspiracy to obstruction.

01:17:10.220 However, no action was taken to impeach.

01:17:13.440 Suddenly, just a few weeks ago, the House announced that it would begin an impeachment inquiry and push for a final vote in just a matter of weeks.

01:17:21.540 To do so, the House Intelligence Committee declared that it would not subpoena a host of witnesses who have direct knowledge of any quid pro quo.

01:17:30.020 Instead, it will proceed on a record composed of a relatively small number of witnesses with largely secondhand knowledge of the position.

01:17:36.700 The only three direct conversations with President Trump do not contain a statement of quid pro quo, and two, expressly deny such a precondition.

01:17:46.300 The House has offered compelling arguments why those two calls can be discounted by the fact that President Trump had knowledge of the underlying whistleblower complaint.

01:17:55.120 However, this does not change the fact that it is moving forward based on conjecture, assuming what the evidence would show if there existed a time or inclination to establish it.

01:18:05.280 The military aid was released after a delay that the witnesses described as not uncommon for this or prior administrations.

01:18:12.140 This is not a case of the unknowable.

01:18:14.240 It's the case of the peripheral.

01:18:15.900 The House testimony is replete with references to witnesses like John Bolton, Rudy Giuliani, and he says Mike Mulvaney in the text, but it's Mick Mulvaney, who clearly hold material information.

01:18:27.260 To impeach a president on such record would be to expose every future president to the same type of impeachment.

01:18:32.140 Absolutely true.

01:18:33.400 And what he talks about there is to go to the inchoat.

01:18:40.480 That's the last line.

01:18:41.740 Give that.

01:18:42.400 To impeach a president on such a record would be to expose every future president to the same type of impeachment.

01:18:47.880 Okay.

01:18:48.180 So inchoat, an inchoat crime is an attempted crime.

01:18:52.880 Okay.

01:18:54.120 So inchoat means, do you want, based on hearsay of some people, but not the whole group, not all the available witnesses,

01:19:06.600 do you want to put a position out that any president can be impeached with only half of the story on a crime that was inchoat,

01:19:18.020 that was only possible and attempted, not committed, when you don't know the facts?

01:19:27.860 It's an alleged crime that he attempted.

01:19:34.160 That's a whole different story.

01:19:36.340 And he makes a very strong case in his outline that you cannot set this precedence.

01:19:43.320 Yeah.

01:19:43.580 He says, in this age of rage, many are appealing for us to simply put the law aside and just do it like this is some impulse buying Nike sneaker.

01:19:52.360 You can certainly do that.

01:19:53.660 You can declare the definitions of crimes alleged are immaterial, and this is an exercise of politics, not law.

01:19:58.840 However, the legal definitions and standards that I have addressed in my testimony are the very thing dividing rage from reason.

01:20:05.880 So, so accurate.

01:20:07.680 And remember, this is not a guy who likes Donald Trump.

01:20:11.000 He's not a big Trump guy.

01:20:11.860 He's not at all.

01:20:13.180 Listening to these calls to dispense with such legal niceties brings to mind a famous scene with Sir Thomas Moore at A Man for All Seasons.

01:20:20.180 In a critical exchange, Moore is accused by his son-in-law, William Roper, of putting the law before morality,

01:20:26.240 and that Moore would give the devil the benefit of law.

01:20:29.100 When Moore asks Roper who would instead cut a great road through the law to get to the devil,

01:20:34.660 Roper proudly declares, yes, I'd cut down every law in England to do that.

01:20:38.160 Moore responds by saying, and when that last law was down and the devil turned around on you, where would you hide, Roper, with the laws being flat?

01:20:46.660 This country is planted thick with laws from coast to coast.

01:20:49.400 Man's laws, man's laws, not God's.

01:20:51.480 And if you cut them down, you're just the man to do it, and you're just the man to do it.

01:20:55.180 You really think that you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then.

01:20:58.880 Yes, I'd give the devil the benefit of law, even for my own safety's sake.

01:21:04.160 That is like, you know, a great...

01:21:07.220 An American principle.

01:21:08.900 Yeah, I mean, like, yes, even the terrible people get the benefit of law.

01:21:13.560 Even the white supremacists get the benefit of the First Amendment.

01:21:17.280 Even someone you don't like gets the benefit of the Second Amendment.

01:21:20.620 Let's just say, if you're a Democrat and don't like the color of their skin, and their name is Martin Luther King,

01:21:25.640 they still get the benefit of the Second Amendment.

01:21:27.900 These things apply to everyone, even a president you don't like.

01:21:31.120 So I'm reading a book, Poisoner in Chief, and it is fascinating because it's about a guy who did wicked medical experiments at Fort Detrick.

01:21:41.440 Okay, horrible, horrible guy.

01:21:43.800 And it starts with him being a good guy, but then they start to not really worry about all of the laws because this is just too important.

01:21:53.160 And the excuses they make for the Japanese mad scientists and the German mad scientists, they skirt all the way around the laws for a lot of them.

01:22:06.480 And they bring them in because it's just too important.

01:22:10.220 Every time we say it's just too important, we do something really, really bad.

01:22:16.760 We have these laws and emotion, and Americans made the right choice on that.

01:22:24.180 Americans said, no, no Operation Paperclip.

01:22:27.860 You're not to excuse these people.

01:22:29.840 But what did Congress do?

01:22:31.900 Congress started having hearings, and they started saying, you know, look at these people.

01:22:36.000 They don't care about your safety.

01:22:37.480 Look at all these people over here on the Republican side.

01:22:40.840 They don't care about your safety at all.

01:22:42.860 They'd rather have you die than work with these guys.

01:22:46.760 When you get into anger and emotion, you always make the wrong move.

01:22:57.320 John Solomon coming up in just a second.

01:22:59.440 You don't want to miss this.

01:23:00.520 Now, if you don't know your numbers and you run a small business or a big business, if you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business.

01:23:08.880 How do you know I can expand?

01:23:11.540 How do you know I can launch a new ad campaign?

01:23:16.040 How's the revenue pacing against last year?

01:23:18.700 Most companies don't have a clear picture of their finances, and they make key business decisions without critical information based on their gut or worse, based on fear.

01:23:28.420 This is why a lot of businesses fail.

01:26:21.080 We're talking about mortgage refis.

01:26:23.300 And with mortgage rates, the lowest they have been in over a year, credit cards are charging double-digit rates.

01:26:29.560 You're never going to be able to dig yourself out.

01:26:31.360 And I think that credit card rates are going to go up.

01:26:35.220 Mortgage rates are going to continue to go down.

01:26:37.240 With American Financing, you're going to get straightforward and effortless mortgage experience.

01:26:41.780 Ten-minute phone call is all that it takes.

01:27:29.060 John Solomon is an award-winning investigative journalist who has worked at the AP, the Washington Post, the Washington Times, and the Hill.

01:27:37.340 He is a credible journalist that is being thrown under the bus by Schiff, his allies, and apparently all of his friends that he used to work with in the media as well.

01:27:48.940 He is instrumental to the impeachment hearings, especially now that we find out that Adam Schiff was collecting his phone records from AT&T.

01:28:00.620 We don't know how he got those.

01:28:02.780 The Washington Post said, presumably with a warrant.

01:28:06.160 Oh, we're going to presume things now.

01:28:09.280 Interesting.

01:28:10.540 We get his feelings on being followed by the government.

01:28:14.360 And where does that stand with freedom of press and how he's been smeared?

01:28:19.820 A lot of information coming your way with John Solomon in one minute.

01:28:24.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:28:26.780 Okay, I want to thank Mike Lindell and MyPillow for being a sponsor on this program.

01:28:34.000 And I love MyPillow.

01:28:36.040 I really do.

01:28:36.920 I use it every night.

01:28:38.160 I really didn't think I would like it.

01:28:40.120 I like down and, you know, everything else.

01:28:42.440 And I really don't like the fake foamy kind of pillows.

01:28:47.000 I don't even know how this is made or what's in it.

01:28:49.540 But I really didn't think I'd like it.

01:28:51.560 I started sleeping on it.

01:28:52.900 I sleep on it every single night.

01:28:54.900 I absolutely love it.

01:28:56.780 I don't wake up with a crick in my neck.

01:28:59.080 I don't toss and turn anymore.

01:29:00.600 It strangely never seems to get warm.

01:29:04.060 It's MyPillow, MyPillow.com.

01:29:06.500 The sheets are just as great.

01:29:38.800 All right.

01:29:39.440 I hate when John Solomon is on because I've just got to rattle through so many questions because he is a treasure trove of information.

01:29:49.560 Welcome to the program, John.

01:29:50.820 How are you?

01:29:51.580 Good to be with you, Glenn.

01:29:52.700 Thank you.

01:29:53.380 Good.

01:29:53.560 I want to just try to keep this as rapid fire as we can because I've got about 14 pages of questions.

01:30:00.500 Wow.

01:30:01.300 The Democratic report is out.

01:30:04.320 Your name is all over it.

01:30:05.740 It includes your name on a list of AT&T phone records.

01:30:10.140 Right.

01:30:10.300 Does Schiff have the legal grounds to do this?

01:30:13.260 How did he obtain it?

01:30:14.380 Can he legally unmask an American citizen in the name in an official report like this?

01:30:21.700 Well, first off, I don't have AT&T as a phone service, so those most likely aren't my records.

01:30:26.900 They're likely someone else's records where my phone calls show up.

01:30:31.960 And, you know, anytime the government uses its power in a subpoena or a warrant or a, you know,

01:30:40.100 I think these are probably congressional subpoenas, we know they announced subpoenas for Lev Parnas and Rudy Giuliani.

01:30:45.900 My suspicion, without having been able to get confirmation yet,

01:30:49.220 is that my phone records just simply show up in some of their call logs that we know were subpoenaed.

01:30:55.840 Anytime the government uses that power, it has a chilling effect on you as a reporter.

01:31:00.060 Who wants to call me the next time if they think, you know, their records could be subpoenaed or shown on screen?

01:31:05.220 But at the end of the day, what does it show?

01:31:07.260 It shows I'm a reporter that was engaged in reporting.

01:31:10.640 In March and April of 2019, the Russia Mueller report was coming down.

01:31:15.600 Of course I was talking to Rudy Giuliani.

01:31:17.780 So was the New York Times and every other major news organization in America.

01:31:22.760 They've made to look scandalous what it's supposed to be, what reporters do every day,

01:31:27.420 talk all sides of a story and do journalism.

01:31:29.740 I wonder if you're going to file a lawsuit at all about, you know, being followed by the government

01:31:36.180 or with AT&T or the government if they didn't obtain it the right way or really a lawsuit against the smears that are coming your way.

01:31:45.880 Let me read something from The Washington Post.

01:31:47.640 Last night, there was never any real story here.

01:31:51.080 There were only an effort by Giuliani to scare up a bogus line attack against Democrats in preparation for the 2020 presidential election.

01:31:58.860 The record demonstrates that Solomon's work advanced that campaign, end quote.

01:32:03.820 Yeah, I guess if you want to ignore the facts, you can take that position.

01:32:09.780 And then The Washington Post has a good history of ignoring the facts.

01:32:12.900 That's why they got large parts of the Russia collusion story together.

01:32:17.200 I'd compare my reporting on Russia collusion against theirs any days.

01:32:20.520 And I think the American public's verdict will be clear.

01:32:23.060 But let me describe what are the political issues, and then people can judge for themselves.

01:32:28.580 Isn't it a fair issue to ask whether Joe Biden created the perception of a conflict of interest when he fired a prosecutor

01:32:34.840 who he knew was overseeing an investigation of his son, regardless of his motive?

01:32:39.480 Because I never established one way or the other what the motive was.

01:32:41.920 I established the timeline and the facts that it happened.

01:32:44.960 Those are public interest issues.

01:32:46.360 And what did Adam Schiff's witnesses tell us?

01:32:48.900 The State Department, two years, three years before I wrote my story, shared those same concerns

01:32:53.840 and tried to raise them with Joe Biden.

01:32:56.600 So there was a public interest there.

01:32:58.540 The Washington Post apparently doesn't see that because it affects a Democrat.

01:33:02.360 The second issue was there was a dysfunctional relationship between our U.S. Embassy

01:33:06.460 and the Ukraine prosecutors charged with fighting corruption.

01:33:10.160 Donald Trump's talking about corruption.

01:33:11.680 They're criticizing him for maybe considering withholding aid because of corruption.

01:33:14.820 Well, if the State Department has a bad relationship with the people fighting corruption,

01:33:19.580 you're never going to solve the problem.

01:33:21.400 I highlighted those issues.

01:33:22.860 Every one of those issues were confirmed in Adam Schiff's testimony.

01:33:26.900 And then the third issue was there were isolated incidents by government officials in Ukraine

01:33:32.180 to interfere in the U.S. election.

01:33:34.720 Now, was it as systemic as Russia was found to be by our U.S. Intelligence Committee?

01:33:39.240 No, nor did I ever claim it.

01:33:40.940 What I said was there were these isolated instances where a DNC contractor seeks dirt from the embassy,

01:33:46.720 where the ambassador writes an op-ed criticizing Donald Trump in the mid-election,

01:33:50.760 and where two government officials knowingly and willfully released evidence they weren't supposed to release

01:33:55.020 to force Paul Manafort's resignation.

01:33:57.580 And by the way, a Ukraine court concluded that was an intrusion on the U.S. election.

01:34:01.620 Those are three legitimate journalism storylines.

01:34:05.360 And the Washington Post, by its own admission,

01:34:08.440 shows its bias by not acknowledging the importance of those issues to the American public.

01:34:12.820 It's something I have just never seen anything so obvious as this before.

01:34:18.000 Yeah.

01:34:18.220 They are trying to make it look and paint this picture that you, Giuliani, and his two associates,

01:34:26.000 they used you as the engine for some sort of giant propaganda and smear operation.

01:34:32.040 Can you address the relationship and communications with Giuliani and his two associates?

01:34:38.460 Absolutely.

01:34:38.920 So I have acknowledged from the beginning, and my bosses were fully aware and approved of this,

01:34:45.320 that in March of 2019, after more than a year or nearly a year of reporting on Ukraine issues,

01:34:52.800 I was still at a loggerhead.

01:34:55.860 I couldn't get some of these Ukraine officials to talk on the record.

01:34:58.560 I knew everything on background, had lots of documents.

01:35:00.860 But after a year of reporting, I didn't have anyone on record.

01:35:05.580 Joe DeGeneva and Victoria Tensing are two of my lawyers.

01:35:09.440 I sent a draft or went over a draft with one of my stories with them saying,

01:35:13.380 hey, can you go over libel and help me on some issues here?

01:35:15.540 And they said, listen, you're struggling with this issue of being on the record.

01:35:18.400 And I said, yes, I want to get people on the record.

01:35:20.120 I want people to believe it because people put their name to it.

01:35:22.560 And they said, well, we have this guy named Lev Parnas that we work with on some of our Ukrainian cases.

01:35:27.740 He's a translator.

01:35:28.760 He's a facilitator.

01:35:30.200 He knows a lot of people.

01:35:31.140 Maybe he can help you get those people to talk on the record.

01:35:33.540 And so before I knew Rudy was involved or had anything to do with it, I talked to Lev.

01:35:37.760 Lev Parnas said, I know some of these people.

01:35:40.720 Give me a list of people you want to interview.

01:35:42.260 I gave him a list of four or five people.

01:35:44.200 And he opened the door.

01:35:45.680 When he opened the door, when he went out and got people to say, listen, can you try talking to John Solomon?

01:35:50.340 And I then went through the official channels, as I had been trying for months.

01:35:54.420 I went through the press office of the prosecutor general and the press office of Sergei Lyshenko and others.

01:35:59.620 And I confirmed these were legitimate interviews.

01:36:02.360 These are going to be done free will and that we can put them on videotapes so the world can see them.

01:36:06.880 And I did exactly what a journalist does.

01:36:08.700 And I got those interviews.

01:36:10.660 Now, after my stories began emerging, Rudy Giuliani, who I talked with a lot about the Russia case, because he was the president's defense man on that case, occasionally would call me.

01:36:21.980 And he would tell me something or he'd offer to help.

01:36:25.380 In the end, nothing.

01:36:27.060 I can say this, and I know Rudy would confirm this.

01:36:29.520 Why Rudy did pass some information to me in June when he finished his investigation.

01:36:33.060 That was long after my columns were done.

01:36:35.340 Nothing he gave me at any time or that he suggested or texted to me or emailed me ever showed up in any of my stories.

01:36:41.560 Why?

01:36:41.860 I either had it already or it didn't check out for me.

01:36:45.640 There are some things he's mentioned publicly that he's passed on to other reporters, myself included.

01:36:49.780 They didn't check out.

01:36:50.680 So I didn't report them.

01:36:51.500 I don't report things that aren't true.

01:36:53.540 So that's what reporters do on a daily basis.

01:36:56.100 And the idea that the Washington Post and Schiff could demonize this is bad for journalism, bad for free speech, and certainly hurtful to me.

01:37:03.660 All right.

01:37:03.860 So you are all over this.

01:37:06.480 Again, you are the propaganda machine.

01:37:09.060 I guess you're like the Goebbels, maybe, of this story, according to the press and the left.

01:37:18.600 But did they call you to testify?

01:37:21.200 Have you been – did you expect to be called?

01:37:23.600 Are you expecting to be called by the Senate?

01:37:26.780 I don't.

01:37:27.720 You know, and again, I'd have to – there are lots of obligations I have as a journalist, including the IP is owned by the Hill.

01:37:33.880 So if that event ever occurred, if I ever was sought to participate, I'd have to go through a process that all journalists have to go through.

01:37:41.980 But there is a lot of supposition that in all of these accusations and all of this smear campaign against me, nobody wants to look at the facts.

01:37:50.240 It's all designed to distract from the facts that I actually have reported.

01:37:53.740 The facts I have reported are incontrovertible.

01:37:56.700 They actually happened.

01:37:58.300 Joe Biden did force the firing.

01:38:00.120 He did use L.A.

01:38:01.560 He knew the guy that he was firing was investigating his son.

01:38:05.600 He says he had one intention.

01:38:07.300 The prosecutor suspects he had another.

01:38:09.360 That's a – he said, she said.

01:38:10.400 But those facts are not in dispute.

01:38:12.940 And all of this effort by Adam Schiff, the Democrats, and his allies in the media are designed to distract from the fact that the factual trail, in my stories, is true and unassailable.

01:38:23.780 So they engage in character assassination and assassination by affiliation or by assassination by phone records with no context.

01:38:32.320 I guarantee you, if you ran Rudy Giuliani's phone records, you'd find lots of other reporters in them, not the only one.

01:38:38.920 Why did they single me out?

01:38:40.500 Because my reporting has been inconvenient to the Democrats and the Washington Post and the New York Times for three years.

01:38:45.720 I helped unravel the Russia collusion bogus narrative.

01:38:50.300 And now I put another narrative out there that's important, factual, worth debating, that they don't like either.

01:38:56.180 All right.

01:38:56.400 I'm going to take a one-minute break and then I come back because I want to talk to you about that factual information and why the Republicans don't seem to be using the actual documents and the recordings and the taped testimonies.

01:39:13.500 Why are they not using any of that?

01:39:15.720 What is the game plan that maybe you could see in one minute?

01:39:21.660 Stand by.

01:39:25.000 If you're looking for the perfect handgun, one that is great for self-defense as well as the days of the gun range, I've got some good news.

01:39:32.860 I'm a proud Second Amendment supporter, which is why I'm a USCCA member.

01:39:36.420 And right now the USCCA is giving away 19 lucky listeners, giving away $1,000 to 19 people.

01:39:45.460 You can buy the gun of your dreams, perfect, you know, for the for the holidays.

01:39:50.180 19 of my listeners could take home $1,000 for free.

01:40:03.180 It ends on the 31st, so there's not a lot of time to waste.

01:40:07.020 The clock is ticking.

01:40:08.260 You could be one of those lucky people.

01:40:10.320 And remember, you have 19 chances to win.

01:40:13.020 All you have to do is just text the word BECK to the number 87222 right now and get registered.

01:40:35.820 Standard message and data rates do apply.

01:40:38.220 We pause for 10 seconds.

01:40:39.780 Station ID.

01:40:50.940 We're talking to John Solomon.

01:40:55.620 He is the guy who has really busted this story wide open, done all the research, and he is being smeared by the press.

01:41:04.700 He is being smeared by Congress.

01:41:07.920 Just one quick cleanup question.

01:41:11.160 Do you have any inkling or any feeling that you will go after the media or shift with some sort of a lawsuit on what's happening?

01:41:20.000 Listen, my lawyers and I are taking a look at some of the more outrageously false claims that are in some of these news articles,

01:41:27.400 and we'll make a decision soon on whether to take some action.

01:41:31.240 If I do so, it's not to make money.

01:41:32.860 It will be to correct the factual record so that the American public can make a better judgment about what's going on.

01:41:39.180 But, you know, it's sad.

01:41:40.920 It's sad to watch a profession ignore the facts and engage in ad hominem attacks when they have so many of the facts wrong.

01:41:48.100 I mean, I can go through any story and disassemble half the facts, and they're just simply wrong.

01:41:53.080 And I have great moments.

01:41:54.400 I've talked to – I had a Washington Post reporter call me one night, and they said,

01:41:58.360 we're writing a story debunking your story.

01:42:00.340 And I said, which one?

01:42:00.860 Oh, I don't know.

01:42:01.480 The one they're talking about on the Hill.

01:42:02.740 And I said, well, have you read the story?

01:42:03.880 And she said, no, I haven't.

01:42:05.740 And I said, well, how can you debunk something you haven't read?

01:42:07.640 I said, I don't have time to read it.

01:42:09.020 And I said, well, there's a very important document in the story.

01:42:11.080 Well, you'll have to send it to me because I don't have time to go get it.

01:42:13.960 Unbelievable.

01:42:14.240 That's how American journalism has been committed against me, and it's really scary.

01:42:19.000 All right.

01:42:19.560 So it's not just about you, but I want to talk about Lusanko.

01:42:23.420 Now, I've talked to Rudy Giuliani, and he's even said, Lusanko is – you know, he says one thing,

01:42:28.360 then he says another.

01:42:29.080 So you can't always take everything that he says at face value, you know,

01:42:34.420 and they're all corrupt, as he said.

01:42:36.540 Everybody, you just have to assume going in, don't trust anybody.

01:42:40.220 However, with Lusanko, his name is in this report over 60 times.

01:42:46.000 And every single time he's mentioned, they call him corrupt, but they never cite a charge.

01:42:53.080 Why is he considered corrupt now when Biden labeled him as one of the good guys just, you know, the years prior?

01:43:00.860 What did he do?

01:43:02.780 Is there any charge?

01:43:04.260 Is there anything?

01:43:05.140 Because they all call him corrupt, but there is no evidence that we can find anywhere that he was charged or questioned about anything.

01:43:15.480 Yeah.

01:43:16.620 In every column I wrote in Ukraine, I carefully noted to the reader that everything in Ukraine is a wild west.

01:43:23.480 There's a lot of corruption, a lot of politics.

01:43:25.620 Take everything with a grain of salt, but there's enough that here in the factual evidence that you should look at.

01:43:30.640 And again, I don't know of any corruption charges that were lodged against Lusanko formally.

01:43:36.580 Certainly not in the time when I interviewed him.

01:43:38.460 He was the sitting attorney general of the country, pretty senior official.

01:43:42.560 But I didn't just take Lusanko's word for things.

01:43:46.040 I went and got the State Department's side of the story.

01:43:48.720 And here's the important part.

01:43:50.400 There's very little difference between the State Department and Lusanko.

01:43:53.380 They want to argue over the word whether a list was given from the ambassador to him.

01:43:58.240 Whether it was a list or a set of names, the State Department has testified under oath.

01:44:03.120 Yes, we did pressure the Ukraine prosecutor's office on multiple cases, not to pursue certain people that we liked or that we considered anti-corruption activists.

01:44:12.980 So the thing that Lusanko was highlighting, that there was this pressure that created resentment between the Ukrainians and the State Department, remains true today.

01:44:22.560 Whether there was a list or just some names discussed, the State Department was interfering in internal investigations of the Ukrainian government.

01:44:30.040 And that made the prosecutors mad.

01:44:31.940 And that's what created that dysfunction I highlighted.

01:44:33.980 And I think that's the part that the Democrats want to ignore, because it's true.

01:44:38.960 Okay, so this is so easy to explain with Lusanko.

01:44:42.560 But I know you saw the Kent testimony.

01:44:45.760 When Kent was asked, did we pressure, is there any pressure on the embassy, you know, from the embassy or from the State Department to not prosecute anybody?

01:44:56.700 He said, absolutely not.

01:44:58.780 I can't imagine we did this.

01:45:00.800 I know you have it.

01:45:02.640 We have it as well.

01:45:03.980 A three-page letter written by Kent.

01:45:07.420 It was.

01:45:08.540 And the deposition, right?

01:45:10.240 So here's where the State Department officials get exposed for their diplo-speak and their double-speak.

01:45:17.440 They'll say it really wasn't pressure when we wrote a letter saying there's no evidence and you shouldn't be pursuing George Soros' group called Antac.

01:45:24.840 It wasn't really pressure when we told them we don't think you should investigate the parliamentary member, Lusanko.

01:45:30.140 It really wasn't pressure when we told them not to investigate the journalist named Shabanan.

01:45:35.900 Well, guess what?

01:45:36.600 The Ukrainians took that as pressure.

01:45:38.060 And why?

01:45:38.660 Because they're relying on the U.S. embassy and their aid to survive as a country.

01:45:43.560 So they can play semantics with pressure.

01:45:46.600 They can play semantics with lists.

01:45:48.120 But what they did was specifically instruct the Ukrainians on multiple occasions, we don't want you pursuing, harassing, investigating, prosecuting these people.

01:45:59.360 And before I did my stories, I interviewed the State Department and they said, yeah, we did that.

01:46:04.560 Yep, that name we did.

01:46:05.540 Yep, that name we did.

01:46:06.400 And I put that in the story.

01:46:07.520 I did a lot of reporting that didn't rely on either Yovanovitch or Lusanko's account of the meeting.

01:46:14.820 It relied on the bigger issue.

01:46:16.620 Is there a dysfunction and pressure going on between the embassy?

01:46:19.400 And that remains true today.

01:46:20.700 So, John, I mean, the volumes of information that you have, the documents that we have shared with you, you've given to us and we have found additional stuff.

01:46:37.800 Why, this case is so clear, why are the Republicans not sitting down when they're called a conspiracy theory?

01:46:47.680 Why are they not sitting in front of television saying, here's the document?

01:46:54.000 Why is this not happening?

01:46:56.660 You know, I don't know.

01:46:58.080 I don't know the answer.

01:46:58.840 In some cases, they have.

01:46:59.840 I mean, Devin Nunes has made some pretty strong statements during the hearings.

01:47:02.940 And I think Lindsey Graham now is requesting some of these documents, right?

01:47:06.940 There was a document request just last week.

01:47:08.940 I think at the end of the day, you know, each side, each party is going to come to whatever they think their best strategy is, both for resolving impeachment and for 2020 politics and just for traditional oversight.

01:47:20.300 But there is a body of evidence that you have, I have, Rudy Giuliani has, ABC News has, New York Times has.

01:47:27.860 Remember, before the New York Times, Washington Post and ABC and all these others turned on me, they confirmed my stories back in May and April.

01:47:34.900 Then they abandoned them when the criticism of the Democrats began, which is a really odd dynamic in America.

01:47:40.780 But there is a body of trail that those three issues we talked about are true, and they're important oversight issues.

01:47:47.160 And somebody should step to the plate and look at them.

01:47:49.360 And that's why I wrote the columns, not to demean any ambassador or cause anything to cause, to highlight public interest issues that probably needed oversight.

01:47:57.360 And, you know, I think the country, many people in the country appreciate what I did.

01:48:02.180 Hopefully Congress will do its job and do the oversight and get to the bottom of these issues.

01:48:06.300 I hope so, too.

01:48:07.520 I hope so, too.

01:48:08.360 John, thank you so much for your reporting.

01:48:10.360 And I feel for you.

01:48:12.980 I know what it's like to be...

01:48:15.120 You've been there.

01:48:15.800 Yeah.

01:48:16.440 And where do you go to get your reputation back?

01:50:00.600 Just a couple of days, Saturday, Glenn is in Salt Lake City.

01:50:03.480 Go to glenbeck.com slash Christmas.

01:50:05.840 There's a few tickets left.

01:50:07.160 Be there.

01:50:32.200 Stu, how does this work out in your head, the impeachment?

01:50:35.160 Because I have a theory, but I have no idea other than they've just been bitten by the madness.

01:50:46.600 But how does this work out well for the Democrats?

01:50:50.040 Let's say by Christmas they pass articles of impeachment.

01:50:54.000 Well, that means coming in January, when people are paying attention again, the Senate now has control.

01:51:00.260 And the Senate is not going to run the impeachment like the House did.

01:51:05.840 They're going to call witnesses that are going to completely turn this thing upside down.

01:51:10.620 And it will keep some of their candidates off of the campaign trail.

01:51:15.060 Yeah.

01:51:15.240 What is there, five senators running now?

01:51:17.940 Booker, Klobuchar, Sanders, Warren, Bennett.

01:51:21.300 They all have to be at this trial.

01:51:24.320 So how does this work out?

01:51:27.280 You know, first of all, it's the first time it's ever been done in U.S. history.

01:51:31.560 People talk about it being the third or the fourth impeachment that's been, you know, close or has been voted on.

01:51:37.440 Yeah, but none of those were in the middle of an election, right?

01:51:42.180 Like those were all second term situations.

01:51:44.600 This is a first term situation ahead of the election.

01:51:49.360 And I think there's a real case to be made, if I'm a Democrat, to not rush through this, to drag it out for a long time.

01:51:58.600 Because you can drag it out.

01:52:01.620 You can be the sideshow, essentially, throughout the primary process, which is going to focus your voting electorate on who's the most electable to defeat Trump.

01:52:12.560 Because it's going to be the main topic.

01:52:14.380 It's not going to be, hey, who can come up with the most socialist health care system, which has not benefited them at all.

01:52:19.480 And they could just keep running this thing.

01:52:20.780 Because Turley's point, which we addressed earlier, is really clear, which is they have not even attempted to call the people who are actually there during these conversations.

01:52:31.920 The reason for that is they don't believe they could get it through the court system fast enough because they want to rush it through before Christmas for some bizarre reason.

01:52:39.320 So I think there's a real argument they should go the other way here, drag it out.

01:52:42.920 Then you'd already have a nominee by the time the Senate thing started.

01:52:47.740 So it wouldn't matter with all these senators being pulled off of the campaign trail with the possible exception of what, who?

01:52:57.660 I mean, if Bernie wins or Elizabeth Warren, maybe that could be an issue.

01:53:01.240 But you could just continue to drag it out.

01:53:03.760 There's a million ways to get around that.

01:53:06.220 What they're doing here is rushing it through.

01:53:08.020 I think, I kind of go back to our initial vibe on this, which is they want to be able to tell the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the squad-esque members of their party.

01:53:20.280 They did what they could.

01:53:21.180 They impeached the guy.

01:53:22.180 What else were we supposed to do?

01:53:23.280 The Republicans stopped us.

01:53:24.860 But believe in us.

01:53:26.140 Donate to us.

01:53:27.080 We're going for it.

01:53:28.180 We're going for it without necessarily focusing the rest of the country on it in the biggest marquee way possible because they're burying us right around the holidays when no one's paying attention.

01:53:39.980 But if it goes to the Senate, it then turns against them, holds them in place, unless your plan is nobody likes an impeachment process.

01:53:49.380 And they're just going to turn on the Republicans and saying, look, we got this done in an efficient manner, and we don't want this to drag on, and they're just dragging this on for the election.

01:54:01.380 That's the only game I could—but I think that's a losing game.

01:54:04.760 Well, nobody's lost money betting on incompetence of Republicans.

01:54:07.880 That's true.

01:54:08.440 So it's possible they could actually have a Senate hearing, blow it so badly that this all turns around on them.

01:54:13.260 Hey, tomorrow on BlazeTV.com, you can get an interview, I did about an hour or so with Nikki Haley, commercial-free, and it is on the impeachment and on her time and what she saw behind the scenes.

01:54:30.880 And I want to play a couple of clips.

01:54:32.580 If you're a BlazeTV subscriber, you'll get this tomorrow.

01:54:36.480 It'll be available online for the next couple of days.

01:54:38.900 It's Saturday.

01:54:39.960 It will go everywhere else on my podcast, but you'll get it early, and it is really worth watching.

01:54:45.100 Here's Nikki Haley on the impeachment.

01:54:47.200 I think the investigation actually should start here in the United States.

01:54:50.720 I think we should look at what sort of conflict of interest Biden had, what was said to the prosecutor, because we've got the videos of things that he had said and things that he demanded.

01:55:00.300 I think we need to look into that.

01:55:01.800 But when you look at the facts, look at the phone calls that have all been provided, look at the facts.

01:55:08.900 He was talking to the president of Ukraine about corruption.

01:55:13.580 That president was elected to stop corruption.

01:55:17.800 So there were two presidents having a conversation, him bringing up the investigation.

01:55:22.760 The investigation didn't happen.

01:55:24.740 There's no sign of browbeating.

01:55:26.480 There's no sign of threats.

01:55:27.960 And the money flowed.

01:55:29.280 I don't know at what point that even qualifies for impeachment.

01:55:34.400 And that's the thing, is it's just so desperate.

01:55:38.620 You know, it's been one investigation after another investigation after another one.

01:55:43.000 The people are getting tired.

01:55:44.780 But more than that, the Democrats might slightly have an ounce of credibility had they not been trying to do this since the day he was elected.

01:55:52.460 She goes into how the the attacks on the president are so unconstitutional and within his own cabinet.

01:56:05.760 Listen to her tell the story about Rex Tillerson trying to, quote, save the country.

01:56:10.420 This was a real concern for me because I saw that he was slow walking things or I saw that they just weren't doing what the president was asking in the National Security Council meetings.

01:56:21.200 But on this day, we had had a meeting in the Oval Office and it was about giving Palestinian aid.

01:56:27.020 And I wanted to pull the aid because they were anti-American.

01:56:31.280 This agency wasn't willing to reform.

01:56:33.280 It was a waste of taxpayer dollars.

01:56:35.120 The president agreed with me.

01:56:38.180 Kelly brought in Rex.

01:56:39.720 Rex countered it.

01:56:41.180 And so he said, y'all go out and figure this out.

01:56:44.620 So me and Rex and Kelly were sitting there and we were talking for about an hour.

01:56:49.340 And I basically was saying, this is what the president wants.

01:56:53.700 And that's when they came in and they said, look, we're not undermining the president.

01:56:59.940 We're trying to save the country.

01:57:01.640 And if we don't do what we're doing by stalling or changing what he wants, people will die.

01:57:09.980 Now, this would be different if they thought he was unfit.

01:57:13.160 This would be different if they thought that he wasn't stable.

01:57:16.880 That's not what their issues were.

01:57:18.720 This is the fact that they didn't agree with getting out of the Iran deal.

01:57:21.640 They didn't agree of getting out of the Paris Climate Agreement.

01:57:24.080 They didn't agree with moving the embassy from Tallahassee to Jerusalem.

01:57:25.920 It's not theirs to agree with.

01:57:27.320 These were policy issues.

01:57:28.760 So if you don't agree on policy, do what I did and go tell the president.

01:57:33.380 But they had every opportunity in National Security Council meetings or quit.

01:57:38.520 Right.

01:57:39.340 And so that was the bottom line was they just thought they knew better than the president.

01:57:45.500 And the reason this touched a nerve with me is I ran for governor.

01:57:49.260 I know how hard it is to get elected.

01:57:51.340 I know when you make promises to the people that elected you, you want to carry it out.

01:57:56.320 I was offended that they were looking in the mirror every day thinking that they could be president.

01:58:03.540 It's quite remarkable.

01:58:05.740 And this goes to what the impeachment, I believe, is really all about.

01:58:09.300 The State Department.

01:58:10.100 That's Rex Tillerson at that time.

01:58:12.020 The State Department thinking they know best and they will do whatever they want to do.

01:58:16.400 And they've institutionalized it.

01:58:17.840 And we've shown you all of the documents that prove that.

01:58:21.060 But it was in Trump's own house as well.

01:58:24.040 And they are making him pay.

01:58:25.800 And it's sending a message to any other president.

01:58:29.760 We control the policy, not you.

01:58:32.400 So Nikki Haley, as we're talking, you know, she didn't start out as a fan of the president.

01:58:39.620 Her mom was always a fan of Donald Trump, but she wasn't.

01:58:44.060 So.

01:58:47.620 I asked her to take me through the the the the hoop here of how she went from not for Donald Trump to Donald Trump's really best solution.

01:59:02.400 election and biggest defender.

01:59:07.300 You were not for Trump in the beginning.

01:59:10.080 In the beginning, I was.

01:59:11.040 You were Marco Rubio and then you went to Ted Cruz.

01:59:15.300 Your mom was.

01:59:17.900 She was for the she was for President Trump the whole time from the very first day.

01:59:23.100 And and she's an immigrant.

01:59:25.800 Oh, and she loved how straightforward he was.

01:59:29.540 She loved the fact that he wasn't going to let the United States get taken for granted.

01:59:32.740 But more than that, she loved what he was going to do on illegal immigration because my parents came to this country because they wanted a better life for their kids.

01:59:41.920 And they put in the time, put in the price and came here legally.

01:59:46.540 They are offended by those who come here illegally.

01:59:49.540 So she very much wanted to do that.

01:59:51.760 And it's funny because we had a lot of talent on that stage, 16 people.

01:59:55.100 Oh, yeah, good people.

01:59:55.780 I was so giddy about that slate.

01:59:58.380 And I put my my backing on Marco Rubio.

02:00:02.360 And I remember the president tweeted, Nikki Haley is an embarrassment to South Carolina, in which I responded and tweeted, bless your heart.

02:00:10.600 I love that.

02:00:12.800 Anybody who knows anything about the Carolinas, that's just that's just a polite way to say F you.

02:00:21.280 I love that.

02:00:22.640 But, you know, once he won the primary, I supported him in the general and we were friends before.

02:00:28.620 We actually knew each other.

02:00:30.220 He supported me when I ran for governor the first time.

02:00:32.840 And I got this white envelope with this great gold trim and there was a support check in it.

02:00:38.660 And there was a note that said, you're a winner.

02:00:40.460 And we were in touch the entire time.

02:00:42.860 But he would fax you stories about you.

02:00:45.620 Oh, yes, he would.

02:00:47.080 And he'd say, keep up the great work.

02:00:48.660 So we were we were acquaintances.

02:00:50.800 But, you know, I mean, all of us had to choose a horse in 16.

02:00:56.620 It's a fascinating, fascinating conversation with Nikki Haley.

02:01:00.960 You can listen to the podcast free for everybody on Saturday.

02:01:04.860 If you're a Blaze subscriber, you can get that probably at midnight tonight, but definitely by this time tomorrow.

02:01:10.520 It will be posted.

02:01:12.380 And and there's a there's a lot of stuff in there.

02:01:15.220 And if you like Nikki Haley, you're going to come out liking her even more.

02:01:20.920 Nikki Haley 2024.

02:01:23.000 It's it's a great interview.

02:01:25.240 Very, very, very astute.

02:01:27.200 Very, very smart.

02:01:28.180 And and just well put together.

02:01:31.580 Couldn't get her to announce, though.

02:01:32.660 Kind of a letdown.

02:01:33.820 Yeah.

02:01:34.120 You.

02:01:34.460 Yeah.

02:01:34.980 Wait, wait.

02:01:36.040 I just said you didn't do your job as a as an interviewer, as a host.

02:01:40.560 I mean, the question.

02:01:41.540 Well, I did tire to a stake.

02:01:43.480 Oh, really?

02:01:43.920 Yeah.

02:01:44.380 She still would admit it.

02:01:45.580 But anyway, every year during the holidays, break ins spike.

02:01:49.720 And it makes sense.

02:01:50.440 You know, we're we're traveling.

02:02:45.340 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

02:02:47.140 Looking at our big board here in the Glenn Beck studio, we have a giant board.

02:03:11.760 It has all of the names, all the people who have dropped out from the from the race on the Democratic side.

02:03:17.340 Um, but I have to take, uh, Umbridge.

02:03:22.040 Oh, no.

02:03:22.620 Yeah.

02:03:23.320 Umbridge.

02:03:23.820 You had Michael Bloomberg under, eh, probably not.

02:03:27.560 Mm-hmm.

02:03:27.820 Uh, and that's with Tom Steyer, Andrew Yang, Tulsi Gabbard.

02:03:32.220 Uh, and you put Michael Bloomberg there.

02:03:34.180 He's already doing 8%.

02:03:35.980 Uh, so you moved him to, I mean, maybe if everything goes right.

02:03:40.280 Yes.

02:03:40.580 I think he belongs in, yeah, he's got a shot.

02:03:43.980 It's not a, it's not an implausible decision.

02:03:46.520 I mean, you can make the argument he's in fifth place in this campaign right now.

02:03:49.780 Now, 8% is above where he's normally polling, we should be clear.

02:03:52.780 He's had some, one or two good polls.

02:03:54.540 But he's been, he's above the Amy Klobuchar's, the Booker's.

02:03:58.780 He's basically tied with Andrew Yang right now.

02:04:01.620 Um, and Yang has performed very well.

02:04:03.600 You can make the argument he's in fifth too.

02:04:05.060 Yeah, but Bloomberg is a billionaire.

02:04:07.060 He's a known, he's a known entity.

02:04:10.060 Uh, he will appear to be somebody who could beat Donald Trump.

02:04:15.020 Uh, he won't be afraid.

02:04:16.460 And if Joe Biden drops out or is, is, is not winning, you're going to go to Buttigieg,

02:04:23.840 Sanders, Warren, Klobuchar, Booker.

02:04:27.180 Or, it's clearly Michael Bloomberg.

02:04:30.340 Do you think it's Biden or Bloomberg?

02:04:32.200 I do not agree with that analysis at this point.

02:04:34.620 I mean, still, uh, Warren or Buttigieg could easily win an outside shot of Sanders winning

02:04:41.160 Iowa.

02:04:42.060 Uh, Biden's currently fourth there.

02:04:43.680 But look at what's happening with Warren.

02:04:45.800 I mean.

02:04:46.180 Warren's fallen off, but she's still, she's still very competitive in those first two states.

02:04:50.640 And if she were to win those first two states, this whole thing can change really quickly.

02:04:56.320 Remember, Michael Bloomberg's not even on the ballot in these states.

02:04:59.120 So you're going to have, uh, two, four races that go down and set some sort of narrative.

02:05:04.820 If it's chaos, it benefits Bloomberg because he's a guy who's essentially right now running

02:05:09.300 in Super Tuesday states unopposed with $53 billion.

02:05:12.240 That's not a terrible position to be in, uh, unless this plays out in a way where, let's say,

02:05:19.740 Elizabeth Warren wins the first two states, which she's very competitive in.

02:05:23.260 Um, and it, that may create enough momentum for her to win a couple more states and she

02:05:29.620 becomes the runaway nominee.

02:05:30.620 I think if Biden is to, if Biden wins Iowa, it's hard to argue that without a massive,

02:05:37.760 uh, event, he would not be the overwhelming favorite.

02:05:42.800 I mean, that's the one he's in fourth place in Iowa, but he's still relatively competitive.

02:05:46.920 If he could somehow pull that race out, he probably springs to the lead in New Hampshire,

02:05:52.040 South Carolina.

02:05:52.740 He's destroying everyone.

02:05:54.220 Nevada.

02:05:54.680 He's been up for a while as well.

02:05:56.940 He's got a clear path.

02:05:58.120 If he wins those first four states, Bloomberg can take shots at him there, but that's a

02:06:01.180 tough place to come from.

02:06:02.400 Well, it'd be hard for Joe, but I think Joe Biden, uh, I mean, if he, if he just doesn't

02:06:08.760 talk about the hair on his legs and things like that, he is going to be the guy that they,

02:06:14.460 there's too many Democrats that don't want a socialist.

02:06:18.420 It's just too many Democrats.

02:06:20.120 I think that's true.

02:06:21.140 And that's the argument for Buttigieg here, by the way, who comes out.

02:06:25.080 He's a mayor of a small town.

02:06:26.360 I know, but he's basically in the lead or front runner in Iowa.

02:06:30.020 If he wins Iowa, he's goes to another very white state, uh, where he is performing decently

02:06:35.820 well and has a lot of, uh, sort of, you know, uh, college graduate liberals there that would

02:06:40.760 like Buttigieg.

02:06:41.680 Well, I don't know how he does anything in South Carolina, but he'd be the guy and maybe

02:06:46.400 Andrew Yang.

02:06:47.680 I don't know how old Yang is, but Buttigieg and Andrew Yang.

02:06:50.540 Those are the two that historically, uh, would perform well because Democrats always lose

02:06:59.320 in these cycles when it's old.

02:07:01.240 That is true.

02:07:02.080 Yeah.

02:07:02.280 They, they, they always win when it's somebody new and vibrant like Obama or JFK, Clinton,

02:07:09.300 when it's somebody old.

02:07:11.440 They usually lose.

02:07:12.120 They lose.

02:07:12.780 And Kamala gone.

02:07:13.880 We didn't even mention that today, which shows how well her campaign was going.

02:07:16.980 Uh, but yeah.

02:07:18.280 We're going to miss her.

02:07:19.060 Oh my gosh.

02:07:19.860 She was, I mean, she really, she's one of those candidates that actually had a shot.

02:07:24.820 She did.

02:07:25.320 And blew it.

02:07:26.220 Just absolutely blew it.

02:07:27.380 Her and Beto are the two big examples of that out of this cycle.

02:07:29.680 There's other people who have come and gone and never really had a chance.

02:07:32.820 Gillibrand never got a look, right?

02:07:35.240 Harris and Beto both had their chance and people saw.

02:07:39.580 And strangely, they both did the same thing.

02:07:41.620 They just went super, super left and got desperate.

02:07:45.660 Yep.

02:07:45.980 It's the Glenn Beck program.

02:07:47.020 It's the Glenn Beck program.

02:07:47.060 It's the Glenn Beck program.
