Welcome to the program. There is a diesel fuel crisis going on right now. The last thing you
00:00:05.320
should be doing is ignoring it. Without diesel, trains don't run. Without diesel, trucks don't

run. Without trucks, grocery stores empty out fast. Are you prepared for anything like this?

all right i want to start before we go to uh steve friend i i want to start with something
00:45:58.640
uh that is absolutely incredible this comes from a woman who wrote me right towards the beginning of
00:46:05.000
covid and told me her story and we've been following it this is this is a woman that used
00:46:13.300
to live in seattle her husband worked for amazon and the government has taken everything from them
00:46:20.220
listen in 1892 a small island just off the coast of new york city opened its doors over 62 million
00:46:29.920
immigrants entered all looking for opportunities that were unmatched anywhere else in the world
00:46:35.320
freedom protection from tyranny but also a home a job a better future for their children
00:46:43.300
but today perhaps somebody should tell the millions of people around the world hoping to arrive on our
00:46:50.060
shores and achieve that american dream that our all-powerful government can take it all from you
00:46:57.520
minneapolis 2011 amy met a man at the top of this escalator in her office building and her life
00:47:09.820
changed forever after we met it was pretty quickly off to the races we had so much in common in fact
00:47:17.620
our mothers had gone to high school together in ohio which we didn't know carl and i had met when we
00:47:22.300
were toddlers about six months after we met carl got a job offer with a little startup that was part
00:47:29.380
of amazon called amazon web services and they asked him to move to seattle to join the company and carl
00:47:36.740
asked me to go with him two years after making the move to seattle carl and amy married in the
00:47:42.780
beautiful mountains of the pacific northwest and very quickly after that we started growing our family
00:47:49.180
amy and carl were exemplifying that american dream amy became an entrepreneur and her company the
00:48:04.300
riveter hit 20 million dollars in revenue carl had left amazon and was experiencing amazing success as a
00:48:12.160
real estate developer we saved our money to buy our first house and we'd really planned to raise
00:48:19.360
our family there for our girls to grow we were happy i mean we had worked so hard to get to where
00:48:27.020
we were we had really embraced that idea that you can build your own dreams and build your own life
00:48:32.940
but then just a couple of weeks after the covid pandemic began here at home amy and carl's dreams
00:48:39.460
came to a screeching halt there was a knock at our door around 6 45 a.m my four little girls were
00:48:50.780
playing a little bouncy house in the living room and it was a woman and a man and the woman
00:48:57.720
opened a wallet and it was a badge and it said fbi the agents gave carl two letters one accused him
00:49:04.980
of a federal crime and the second said that they intended to seize a number of his bank accounts
00:49:11.960
and some bank accounts that i shared with him did not know then but learned very quickly that there
00:49:16.880
is a practice in america called civil forfeiture since 9 11 under just one program police have taken
00:49:22.240
two and a half billion dollars in the course of over 61 000 seizures of cash alone from people who and
00:49:29.220
this is the mind-blowing part were not charged with a crime it's when government agencies can take
00:49:35.380
everything you have your bank accounts your homes your cars without ever charging you for a crime
00:49:42.620
what do you do if you can't feed your kids how do you even navigate talking to the fbi like what
00:49:49.580
happens then carl did something only two percent of all americans accused of a federal crime choose to
00:49:55.180
do he refused to cave well that's when the fbi did everything they could to scare this young family
00:50:02.380
into submission i checked my wells fargo bank account and i logged on and it was empty and this was my
00:50:09.980
account just mine where i put my earnings as a ceo as a lawyer and all the money was gone and i've
00:50:15.600
never been accused of a crime um i yelled for my husband to check his bank accounts and everything
00:50:22.260
was gone so we had no money um to feed our kids to pay our mortgage to pay carl's lawyers
00:50:30.980
and that was designed so that carl couldn't fight back they sold their home amy gave up her business
00:50:38.500
but it still wasn't enough one of the other tools that was used to coerce him to plead guilty
00:50:44.900
was a constant threat from the department of justice that they were going to charge him with a crime
00:50:50.500
and that when they did they would show up at our house in the middle of the night or the middle of
00:50:55.620
the morning and drag him out at gunpoint in front of our four daughters and i just didn't want them to
00:51:02.340
see that and so for for many months um we would wake our daughters up our four little girls at five
00:51:13.620
in the morning and take them to different parks all around puget sound we tried to make it an
00:51:19.460
adventure but for us i just didn't want them to be there if that was going to happen most of my
00:51:26.420
daughters were too young to understand anything was happening but my oldest daughter sloan did
00:51:32.820
understand that something was wrong you know i told sloan sometimes people with bad motivations
00:51:42.820
and a lot of power can make very bad things happen to other people
00:51:49.620
and we explained to her that because someone had said daddy did something bad without asking him
00:51:56.260
without verifying it that um the government had taken our money and that because of that we needed to
00:52:05.540
sell our house and we were going to move and stay with family um but that mommy and daddy were going to
00:52:11.140
fight and we did and i think you know that's the most important thing
00:52:18.980
amy and carl fought and they fought hard and against all odds in the ultimate david and goliath
00:52:26.180
battle they proved to sloan and her little sisters that the good guys can succeed no matter how powerful
00:52:34.020
the enemy may be they have not succeeded yet you will hear their entire story on the special that we air
00:52:45.300

steve friend grew up in savannah georgia he followed his father's footsteps and attended the university of
00:55:49.220
notre dame where uh he graduated with a bachelor's in accounting he worked uh in accounting for two
00:55:55.540
years before deciding he wanted to be a in law enforcement he was a sworn police officer in savannah
00:56:01.940
and pooler georgia for four years and then he joined the fbi in 2014 he spent his first seven years
00:56:08.660
in the fbi investigating violent crime and major offenses occurring on indian reservations in northeast
00:56:15.940
nebraska this included the omaha nation winnebago tribe of nebraska and the santee sioux tribe he was
00:56:24.900
also a member of the fbi omaha swat team for five years he transferred to daytona beach in 2021
00:56:32.420
and ben and and began investigating child exploitation human trafficking and child sexual abuse
00:56:39.060
he was reassigned to the joint terrorism task force in october 21 this is where his story really
00:56:50.020
begins welcome to the program steve steve friend thank you very much glenn it's honor uh so steve tell me
00:56:57.460
what happened after you were uh reassigned to the joint terrorism task force uh well when they brought me
00:57:05.940
over they had to uh put me uh on the cases that they had already in existence uh and what i soon
00:57:12.420
learned was that the vast majority of those cases were tied to the january 6th incident at the capitol
00:57:19.300
uh and uh in my my habit as an investigator coming from uh from violent crime and then in an environment
00:57:25.860
where there's lots of cases coming very rapidly i just started to look through the cases and and really
00:57:30.980
wanted to take action on them and what i came to learn though was that they'd done everything that
00:57:36.100
they had expected to do and were waiting to hear back from washington as to further action or uh or you
00:57:42.580
know whether the status of the case was going to be which to me was a uh major departure from the fbi
00:57:48.260
rules for investigate work so wait a minute so they the work had already been done by washington
00:57:53.780
why were you assigned it then that was my question uh you know just being very very familiar with the
00:58:01.460
the case management practices within the fbi you know having opened over 200 cases in my career
00:58:06.420
uh when you open a case it's assigned to you it's assigned to your office uh so when we had these
00:58:12.500
january 6 cases it seemed to me that those cases should have been open from washington dc uh but if a
00:58:17.780
decision was made to you know to send them out to the field then the case was going to sit with the
00:58:22.980
office that it was with in my case it was daytona which is in the jacksonville field office and we'd
00:58:27.780
run that case the way we wanted to the way we wanted to make our decisions for and further proper
00:58:33.060
investigative steps however uh it was clear that a lot of the pre-work had been done in those cases
00:58:39.380
from washington and uh they were giving directives to our offices even though we were the on paper the
00:58:45.700
assigned case agents with our office of origin uh washington was really running the show and which is a
00:58:51.780
you know not a kosher uh move on our part in the fbi why would they do that uh i asked and uh i was
00:59:00.340
told that that had been raised um you know early on and uh the response from headquarters had been
00:59:05.780
that it was to get quote unquote buy-in from the field uh i there's a couple of things i can surmise
00:59:12.420
from that one is the fbi suits and headquarters just have a really negative opinion of its investigators
00:59:18.260
and they thought you know if your name's not they're not going to do a good job which to me
00:59:22.020
just kind of rang hollow pretty macabre view of your of your personnel uh so then i just just did a
00:59:27.140
little bit of critical thinking on it and you know first of all the uh the january 6 incident
00:59:31.060
logically is one incident it should be one case uh but instead the fbi is elected to open a separate
00:59:37.060
case for every single subject so right then and there you have one case has been made into 800 900
00:59:43.780
a thousand cases uh so now you've you've upped the the total bottom line number of domestic
00:59:49.620
terrorism investigations and then by spreading those cases to the field you're essentially
00:59:54.820
backfilling a narrative that was was pushed out in 2021 2022 about this rise in violent domestic
01:00:02.180
terrorism around the country when in reality that all those cases are stemming from one incident
01:00:08.020
on january 6 2021 in one location okay so you were suspended because you wouldn't do it you were
01:00:14.740
suspended without pay your your gun your badge everything was taken from you um and it's because
01:00:22.020
you wouldn't uh what they say is refusing a lawful arrest warrant uh which demonstrated poor judgment
01:00:31.220
and improperly accessing the fbi's employee handbook and refusing to attend the sab tell me about this
01:00:40.500
yeah so i uh uh my first opportunity really to take uh to engage in an arrest of a january 6 subject i'd
01:00:47.380
already decided that uh should that come to pass that i was going to make my disclosure to uh to my
01:00:52.900
supervisor so uh in in the lead up to that i uh i the week before spoke to my immediate supervisor
01:00:59.700
raised my concerns about uh improper case management practices and then also just my
01:01:03.860
concerns about how we were going to be arresting these subjects because in my experience and having
01:01:08.820
arrested 150 plus violent criminals you never had to use a tactical team a swat team to to bring them
01:01:15.620
into custody because i talked to those individuals and and we've done similar things with these january
01:01:20.420
6 subjects so to me it seemed like an unnecessary use of uh force uh you know and i have swat experience
01:01:27.140
to to back that up so i brought all those concerns to them um they uh they passed it up the chain of
01:01:32.980
command my supervisor to the the second level um and uh again had more sit-down meetings with those with
01:01:40.180
those guys uh voices and concerns even brought up fbi training uh about abuse of power that all agents have
01:01:46.900
to go through in the academy where you go to the holocaust memorial and the mlk memorial and you discuss
01:01:52.100
you know how those civil rights abuses and and atrocities can occur so raised all those concerns
01:01:59.860
and they said uh it was very clear to me that they were trying to divorce the the two issues of me
01:02:05.140
raising my uh concern and then they said it's separate for me to uh refuse to to participate and
01:02:11.380
and i contradicted that i said you know my job is to defend the constitution i took an oath to uphold and
01:02:17.540
defend it and i think that we are violating due process and we're potentially uh violating some
01:02:23.060
cruel and unusual punishment but just how we're bringing these guys into custody even you know
01:02:28.260
interviewing people who we never actually intend to prosecute is is an abuse so i have to default to
01:02:33.380
my oath of office and i think i am doing my job uh they didn't agree with me they said that i had
01:02:39.700
a questionable uh judgment and uh was not uh executing a lawful warrant uh that was one of the
01:02:45.940
issues uh when i got concerned about my my future with the fbi because they they multiple times told
01:02:51.220
me you know where do you see yourself with us in the future in fact my special agent in charge sherry
01:02:56.020
onks told me i needed to do some soul searching and decide if i wanted to be an fbi agent um so i got
01:03:01.540
an attorney and uh he he asked me to get him the employee handbook and disciplinary procedures because
01:03:07.460
he just wanted to be equipped to to mount for me so that was the improperly accessing the

01:05:34.500
local fbi agents uh steve friend is his name he's an fbi whistleblower he objected to being part of the
01:05:42.340
january january 6th raids for several reasons first of all um before i get to some other things can you
01:05:48.980
tell me um you said earlier that you thought it was um cruel and inhumane treatment i think you said
01:05:57.300
uh the way some of these prisoners are being handled can you tell me anything you know about that
01:06:03.700
well i can only speak to you know what i've read about how our folks are being held in the dc jails who
01:06:08.580
have actually been taken into custody uh my my genuine concern uh was the the process being a
01:06:14.660
punishment for people who actually were never we never intended or were going to not be able to
01:06:19.700
charge so you know just sitting down somebody in front of them you know stresses them out a lot of
01:06:24.340
these guys had to hire attorneys uh the one individual i participated in with an interview he
01:06:29.220
had lost his job and was you know retaining an attorney and it was for you know walking in the
01:06:35.140
capitol after having gained permission of the police so what was the point of us right going
01:06:41.380
through that process you know it's a it's amazing to me you you said um at one point you you said that
01:06:49.300
the process is the punishment and when you think of that that is terrifying because that means that
01:06:59.140
even if they can't charge you or you're not really guilty of anything they're going to make this so
01:07:05.780
horrible on you that you just stay away from everything you teach you teach people a lesson
01:07:11.860
stay away don't even get close to any of this that's exactly right i mean even you can go back to
01:07:18.820
what happened to michael flynn and he was forced to sell his house and essentially become bankrupt in
01:07:26.340
order to mount a defense and ultimately plead guilty to avoid his son being roped into it so
01:07:30.900
that's the process is the punishment and the fbi um designated the grassy area area outside the u.s
01:07:38.980
capitol as a restricted zone after january 6th and did they apply that retroactively to be able to look
01:07:48.260
and say well you were in that restricted zone on january 6th that's my understanding that they they
01:07:55.700
wanted to really send a message and then gather more people up in this dragnet so they decided
01:08:00.900
that the the lawn on the outside of the capitals outside of those four walls was going to be deemed
01:08:05.540
restricted because at some point there have been some barricades but just anecdotally i heard
01:08:10.580
individuals who were there on the fifth they said they saw barricades but on the sixth the morning of
01:08:15.060
they saw people removing them so there's a little bit of uh suspect action being involved with that
01:08:21.940
um tell me about guardians the tools that they use to investigate called guardians
01:08:29.060
so guardian is a software system uh i like to think of it as like the 9-1-1 system in the fbi
01:08:34.660
uh you call 9-1-1 just cat in the tree uh for your neighborhood you can do that to the fbi to the
01:08:41.460
national intake center uh those folks there deal with uh probably 3 000 calls a day or
01:08:47.620
or digital or electronic communications uh they kind of cull through it and disseminate them to
01:08:53.220
the field for a proper investigative action so when it came to january 6th there was a huge uptick in
01:08:58.980
the amount of guardians that came in to the fbi and it was from all over the country it could be from
01:09:05.060
a disgruntled neighbor who didn't like his uh buddy across the street having a mega flag it could be a
01:09:11.780
uh family member ratting on a family member you know my my uncle was there he he told me he was
01:09:18.100
there so people that were trying to uh to be helpful to the fbi and in pursuing this investigation
01:09:24.020
uh a lot of them actually just went to the fbi website looked at pictures and then would call
01:09:28.660
call in a tip saying you know this uh unknown subject looks like somebody i went to high school with
01:09:34.100
and uh those tips would come in uh they would be pushed out to you know wherever was deemed the
01:09:38.660
appropriate geographical location uh so for me you know i i got one uh that was really the the first
01:09:44.340
interaction i had uh it was a anonymous tip from rhode island that said uh this individual was
01:09:51.380
was involved in assaulting police soldiers at the january 6th riot uh they had done a workup on this guy
01:09:57.780
uh his phone had the the geo fence on his phone the gps did not ping at the capital uh the facial
01:10:04.740
recognition with his social media accounts did not come up with a positive match but i was still asked
01:10:09.940
to go and attempt to do an interview so it's not illegal for me to knock on anybody's door and and
01:10:15.860
say hey i'm the fbi do you want to talk to me right it's called a knock and talk but uh you know it was
01:10:20.900
just kind of a concern just because even if he admitted to being at the capitol there was no
01:10:25.300
complaint it was going to be very difficult to even charge the case so i still just good team player at
01:10:31.460
that point uh said all right i'll go knock on his door went went to the drill about an hour an hour
01:10:36.820
and a half uh knocked on the door met a gentleman there said i am with the fbi we were looking at
01:10:42.660
january 6th were you at the capitol that day and he looked at me and said no that was the day of my
01:10:47.780
son's funeral so uh i just you know well i guess i made him relive that whole experience and uh gave
01:10:55.700
my business card and was on my merry way so that was my my first uh guardian that i had for kenny
01:11:01.540
the january 6th um are you seeing an escalation of political targeting at the fbi how concerned about
01:11:09.700
all the things that we're seeing with the face act now the fbi coming in at the middle of the night and
01:11:15.220
arresting 78 year old people the idea that if you disagree at the school board you're a somehow or
01:11:22.260
another a terrorist yeah i i think there's definitely a political element i think there's a
01:11:28.980
there's two dueling things there's there's politics and there's ambition sometimes there's one sometimes
01:11:34.180
with the other sometimes there's folks i think uh and there are some true believers definitely my
01:11:38.900
special agent in charge uh sherry onks is a of the political left made no secret about that she she sent
01:11:44.660
out emails about the the dobbs decision being the so the supreme court taking away women's rights and
01:11:50.820
she put a gay pride flag display up in our office in jacksonville uh but then you have my assistant
01:11:55.940
special agent in charge uh colt markovsky who i believe is probably more ambitious kind of saw this
01:12:00.420
as being a huge case of the fbi than the bigger than 9-11 and you know if you get your name on
01:12:06.020
something with january 6th and you can claim you had supervising responsibilities in some way of the
01:12:12.180
largest and most important case of the agencies ever worked that's that's going to be a pretty
01:12:16.020
good ticket for you to promote within me and the organization and i think just recently you
01:12:21.220
know with the with these face acts uh you know i've had a little bit of experience with it just
01:12:24.900
being on uh human trafficking investigations i i reached out to some of the crisis pregnancy centers
01:12:30.660
after the the jackson dobbs case uh just because i was worried that they might have some uh some threats
01:12:37.380
come in uh and then i also figured that they they might actually see some human trafficking victims
01:12:41.620
that could be a good resource for me did that uh got a little helmet sticker from from the from
01:12:46.740
the bosses but then was also told that i really needed to prioritize looking into abortion clinics
01:12:51.700
because they were really going to be the ones that were at risk really and i i responded i i think
01:12:58.100
the only time that the team that wins does that is like when the lakers win the title they burn the
01:13:02.420
city but otherwise i don't think that the uh the pro-life side is going to right burn down places that
01:13:08.820
are going to be shut down right that's just my critical thinking uh and last question and i know
01:13:17.220
i asked you this uh before but uh why aren't we seeing more fbi agents coming out we've always thought
01:13:26.740
that these guys were the best of the best you know conservatives have always given them a pass which we
01:13:32.660
i don't think we should have um but uh now they're showing themselves to be uh i think less than
01:13:41.060
honorable if they're seeing things themselves and are not standing up against it i i'm i'm hard
01:13:49.940
disheartened by this myself um you know i told you uh the other night you know i really thought that i
01:13:55.460
was going to have the the captain america end game moment where you know i fought a battle and even in my
01:14:00.980
most dire situation i would get that on your left moment and uh there would be my my brother and
01:14:07.620
sister in arms standing there and they just aren't i i'm i'm done talking about the good men and women
01:14:14.100
at the fbi i know that's the politically correct thing that uh all of our leaders like to say to
01:14:18.820
make sure the donations keep coming in but um i i'm no longer doing that i think that
01:14:24.980
it's a really sweet gig to be an fbi agent i lived it for eight years it's a great job you're the
01:14:29.700
most interesting person um maybe with the exception of radio show host uh everybody wants to ask you
01:14:37.220
questions and the big case um and uh you can really get by on a 20-year career being grossly overpaid
01:14:43.220
and underworked and folks just kind of play that same narrative where they say i'm just trying to
01:14:48.020
pay the bills and put food on the table and i'm going to keep my head down i only got a few years to
01:14:52.100
to retirement um but you know i i swore an oath and i i you know like i voiced to my bosses i guess you
01:14:58.020
guys found the one that actually took their oath seriously i believed in it uh i that's why i wanted
01:15:04.740
to do the job so this was a job so i did the job and it never occurred to me that that was not um
01:15:11.300
that was an option to not do that unfortunately i guess the other uh 14 000 agents who uh who
01:15:17.940
wear the gun and badge uh don't share my sentiments well we have all kinds of oversight if the uh if the
01:15:24.900
republicans gain the house it looks like they're going to at this point and uh i know you're in
01:15:30.100
touch with uh people on capitol hill and i i hope we see more of you and i i hope all of this comes to
01:15:37.700
light and we do clean up this organization or shut it down if it won't be cleaned up then shut it down
01:15:44.500
steve thank you so much thank you glenn you bet steve friend uh former fbi agent um he has had quite
01:15:52.900
a transformation you'll see him uh tomorrow as he talks about some of the cases uh that we have
01:15:59.940
in front of you tomorrow it is a really very important show because we don't know our constitution
01:16:09.940
uh you know mike lee's son uh came with his wife and and mike and uh we went out to dinner afterwards
01:16:17.220
and his son is actually uh i think he's clerking for the supreme court now and uh he said you know
01:16:25.300
when i i heard my dad was coming to this i wanted to come he said but so many places are just gonna get
01:16:32.340
you all riled up uh and then leave it there and he said i was so glad to see the panel and what you guys
01:16:42.740
were doing because what we tried to do is show you what can happen to you and it is on the increase
01:16:49.940
we've never had to think about being an enemy of the state we never have been we believe in the
01:16:56.260
constitution how can we possibly be the enemy of the of the government and the and the constitution
01:17:02.980
when we are calling for the use of the constitution and you never have thought of yourself as a rebel a
01:17:09.620
rebel but now you are just for standing up you'll hear the story of a guy who lost his children
01:17:17.460
because he would not go along with calling his son who does not want to be called a girl a girl
01:17:27.300
it can happen to you and we are going to give you the do's and don'ts and what you need to do
01:17:34.980
to prepare for these things it's a introductory really on the constitution and how you should
01:17:43.380

It was either the day before the election or election day.
01:26:50.080
And I purposely held it because I thought no one will pay attention to it today, but it
01:27:01.460
We have Alan Dershowitz with us, one of the most celebrated lawyers in the world.
01:27:07.700
He is a man who has been fighting a smear against him when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein.
01:27:16.020
If you remember, a woman who was a victim of Epstein said that Alan Dershowitz had sexually
01:27:31.940
In a joint statement announcing the settlement, she said, quote,
01:27:36.980
I have long believed that I was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein to Alan Dershowitz.
01:27:46.220
It was very stressful and a traumatic environment.
01:27:49.300
And Mr. Dershowitz has from the beginning consistently denied these allegations.
01:27:54.460
I now recognize I may have made a mistake in identifying Mr. Dershowitz.
01:28:00.540
Her lawyer, who, if you remember the story, no friend of Alan Dershowitz, David Boyce,
01:28:07.380
he even said, quote, the time has come to end this litigation.
01:28:13.940
Mr. Dershowitz has suffered, I'm quoting, has suffered greatly from the allegation of
01:28:18.680
sexual abuse made against him, an allegation that he has consistently and vehemently denied,
01:28:29.200
It wasn't buried, a very important person in our culture and in our law has been cleared.
01:28:48.660
And we're trying to get all of the depositions, all of the videotapes,
01:28:53.520
all of the videotapes that have now been sealed at the request of Goufray and Boyce and her lawyers.
01:29:00.460
We want to get them unsealed so that you can play them on your show so that the American public
01:29:05.680
can hear the whole story, not just the partial story reflected by her dropping the charges against me.
01:29:13.680
There is a tremendous amount that has been sealed.
01:29:19.740
And I have from day one said, I waive all my rights to privacy.
01:29:25.260
And I think everybody understands if you have two people and one of whom wants everything kept secret
01:29:30.980
and the other of whom wants everything made public, who's telling the truth and who's not telling the truth.
01:29:38.920
And I want the media to go to court and say, we have the right to hear if there's an audio tape,
01:29:45.360
if there's a videotape, if there are depositions, if there are emails we want to hear.
01:29:51.300
Because, you know, a lot of people were accused in this case.
01:29:54.780
George Mitchell was accused, the former majority leader of the Senate.
01:30:01.920
The granddaughter of Pousteau, the explorer, was accused.
01:30:18.800
And I hope that the media wants it all to come out so that the whole story can be told.
01:30:29.960
I will support you because I want nothing hidden.
01:30:35.180
I never had sex with anybody but my wife during the relevant period of time.
01:30:43.020
I mean, the whole story has been made up from beginning to end.
01:30:46.120
Yeah, well, you've been, you know, a Harvard professor for long enough that if you if you did like young women,
01:30:52.980
it probably would have been noticed a long time ago.
01:30:57.020
Well, 50 years and never in the 50 years was a single complaint ever, ever leveled against me.
01:31:04.340
I've had dozens of female research assistants, thousands of female students, but never until this was any any charge ever leveled against me.
01:31:17.440
And we know why we know the reasons why the charge was made.
01:31:21.520
Her best friend has has a tape, which is not sealed, in which she said that Goufray never wanted to charge me or name me.
01:31:32.740
She never wanted to name me, but she was pressured to do so by her lawyers.
01:31:37.760
And if you read my book, Guilt by Accusation, you'll see I lay out the whole scenario of why I was used as a stalking horse to try to get a billion dollars from Leslie Wexner, a very wealthy man who was also accused.
01:31:54.620
I want every every deposition, every videotape, every videotape, every mail out there.
01:32:00.360
So how did it feel to have Boyce at least say that on record?
01:32:05.460
I mean, it probably rang hollow to you because, you know, the real story.
01:32:12.100
You know, he he wanted to make sure I I dropped my my countersuit against him.
01:32:19.760
But, you know, I don't I don't believe that his feelings really are that way, but I don't really care.
01:32:27.580
The case against Boyce was never important to me.
01:32:30.480
It was always the accusation, the false accusation made by Virginia Goufray, which was believed by a lot of people.
01:32:38.120
And a lot of people canceled me as a result of it, including major Jewish organizations like Temple Emanuel in New York, the 92nd Street Y.
01:32:46.480
I would hope they would now reconsider their cancellation and invite me back.
01:32:52.160
And it's really affected my ability to defend Israel.
01:33:01.120
I hopefully will be meeting with the new prime minister.
01:33:03.280
And my effectiveness in defending Israel was substantially curtailed by this accusation.
01:33:09.920
And so now I think I can go back and do what I've been doing for 50 years, defending civil liberties, defending the Constitution, defending human rights and defending Israel.
01:33:19.480
Well, I just talked to Bibi Netanyahu, what, last week or something.
01:33:27.380
Remind him I really want to become a citizen, a dual citizenship of Israel.
01:33:41.720
You know that Bibi offered me the job of being Israel's ambassador to the U.N.
01:33:46.660
And if I had taken it, I would have had to become an Israeli citizen.
01:34:05.700
And I certainly didn't want to give up my American citizenship.
01:34:19.620
I stand up every time, you know, and sing along with the Star Spangled Banner and love July 4th.
01:34:31.060
And I will spend the rest of my life as an American defending American values.
01:34:39.300
I will tell you, Alec, Bibi said to me, why do you want to become, why do you want to have citizenship in Israel?
01:34:47.100
Either if the crap hits the fan, I want to be standing with people who are wide awake and who will stand and know what they're fighting for.
01:34:54.000
And the second reason might be, I guess I just want the two most unpopular passports in the world, maybe.
01:35:02.920
And the two passports of countries that people want to come to more than almost any other country.
01:35:10.040
You know, people just everybody wants to come to America.
01:35:16.920
People want to come to America and people want to come to Israel.
01:35:20.520
The refugees from Ukraine are coming to Israel.
01:35:24.840
You know, Israel is a great, great, wonderful, wonderful country.
01:35:33.300
I'm doing a special on the FBI and the Justice Department and how out of control it is.
01:35:39.460
And this is something we've seen before with the FBI.
01:35:47.400
How do we rein this in with with oversight that just doesn't want to do oversight?
01:35:55.480
Well, first of all, there has to be a change in the Justice Department of the FBI right now.
01:36:03.020
On the one hand, the attorney general of the United States is in the cabinet.
01:36:09.140
He's supposed to help the incumbent president get reelected.
01:36:14.560
He's part of the administration of the cabinet.
01:36:17.160
On the other hand, he's supposed to be an objective, neutral law enforcement official,
01:36:23.000
We're one of the only countries in the world that combine those roles.
01:36:26.920
In England and in Israel, you have ministers of justice who are political.
01:36:31.220
Everybody knows they're on the side of the prime minister.
01:36:33.440
And then you have the director of public prosecution or some other person
01:36:38.220
who is not political, who is not a member of the same party necessarily.
01:36:42.740
And their job is to just do justice without any concern for the politics.
01:37:00.040
there were complaints that there was not enough diversity in Major League Baseball
01:37:04.440
because only 7% of Major League Baseball players are African-American.
01:37:11.060
But nobody complains about diversity in basketball.
01:37:21.020
You can't have any discussion about anything today in our country.
01:37:25.200
I remember the day when Bill Buckley and I used to be on radio or television,
01:37:32.640
And then we'd go out and have a drink and talk about how much we admire each other's views,
01:37:38.120
Or you and I still can have that kind of discussion.
01:37:41.760
You know, you and I don't agree on a lot of domestic issues,
01:37:48.300
There are too few people who have that kind of ability
01:37:54.380
Right, because their principles are more important than politics,
01:38:04.000
and it really is about how by sticking to principle,
01:38:06.940
you get in trouble, and it costs you family and friends and money,
01:38:19.480
and you've been teaching some of the best and the brightest.
01:38:26.160
Are you seeing signs of hope still at that level of student?
01:38:31.640
Because I see polls all the time from university students.
01:38:34.840
They don't understand freedom of speech anymore.
01:38:37.280
They don't understand really the Bill of Rights.
01:38:39.740
Not only that, but they actually think that freedom of speech
01:38:46.900
is a patriarchal, colonial concept, white supremacist concept.
01:38:56.040
If you know, quote, the truth about everything,
01:38:58.820
what do you need freedom of speech and dissent?
01:39:04.180
I'm proud of the students, usually in some universities,
01:39:08.040
only a handful or a couple of handfuls of students
01:39:11.960
That's why I go out of my way to speak at the Federalist Society.
01:39:15.720
I'm not a conservative, but I want to make sure
01:39:21.420
who are prepared to fight against the woke culture,
01:39:24.680
who are prepared to fight against the denial of due process.
01:39:29.740
There are too few of them, but there are enough of them,
01:39:46.640
but I'm going to keep trying to make them get better.
01:39:49.500
Now, particularly that I'm free from this false accusation,
01:39:58.540
and I still want to fight for what I love about America,
01:40:01.540
what I love about liberty, what I love about freedom.
01:40:05.240
I thought it was important that this story was not buried.
01:40:15.020
They're still trying to keep secret the other material,
01:40:18.420
and they're trying to shut me up, shut me down,
01:40:31.720
I'll have someone of my producers reach out to you,
01:40:39.260
and want to know the truth on what really happened.
01:41:11.280
we talked to him when all of this was going on.
01:41:24.240
This is the central accuser in the Epstein thing.
01:41:30.860
She's the one that accused all these people for this.
01:41:38.900
who's now admitting she may have made a mistake
01:42:26.640
of America's catastrophically injured veterans,
01:44:07.060
And then he looks up, like, completely confused.
01:44:28.660
It's not to say that no one can be sharp enough
01:44:55.440
I didn't realize Joe Biden was robbing the cradle
01:45:15.100
Your Chinese social score arrives in America next.
01:45:23.120
Sharon wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.
01:45:25.640
She says, our pit bull, Molly, was in very rush shape
01:45:44.760
And Rough Green's ain't a hell of a lot of that.
01:45:46.620
Anyway, she said her coat still had a strong smell.
01:45:50.820
She's been on Rough Green's now for several weeks.
01:46:08.940
It's a supplement developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
01:46:13.700
and it's chock full of everything your dog needs to be healthy.
01:46:17.640
I want you to go to roughgreens.com slash Beck.
01:46:38.480
and get 30 bucks off your subscription to Blaze TV.
01:47:06.780
as a hoax, as something that just is not happening.
01:47:12.740
Let me give you two stories that have come out today.
01:48:25.240
Instead, managers at the Washington-based institution
