00:00:00.000 hello everybody and welcome to the great america show it's great to have you with us on a beautiful
00:00:06.180 day in america thanks so much uh for being with us tonight here live uh for the great america show
00:00:11.200 apologize for my absence the last few days i came down with the flu and then a cold it's been a
00:00:16.020 little rough but i appreciate our friend stephen gardner picking up the reins and filling in for
00:00:20.060 me hopefully we get through today's show without any coughs or anything like that but uh it was
00:00:24.980 an important day so regardless of how i'm feeling we had to get a show out today because jack smith
00:00:29.480 that dirtbag lowlife was on Capitol Hill this afternoon, and what did he do?
00:00:35.380 Well, I guess as expected, he lied. 0.96
00:00:37.360 He lied, and he lied some more, but I think the word we're looking for is the P word.
00:00:42.660 He perjured himself in front of members of Congress.
00:00:46.380 We have all of the reaction from it today.
00:00:48.200 We have the senators grilling him, annihilating him.
00:00:51.560 We've got Jack Smith.
00:00:52.700 I want to begin, though, with his opening statement.
00:00:55.120 Just to outline it, if you guys didn't have the time or didn't want to waste your time
00:00:58.400 watching this low life. It's a few minutes long, but it's his opening statement. I think it's a
00:01:02.440 little bit important because Jack Smith ensures us that he's nonpartisan, that he's this
00:01:07.880 holier than thou figure who had no animus towards President Trump, had no animus towards
00:01:14.360 Republicans or anybody. He was simply doing his job. But the problem is Jack Smith's track record
00:01:19.780 shows something quite different throughout his years. We're going to talk a little bit about
00:01:24.000 We're going to talk about some issues he's had at the Supreme Court in previous cases, some issues he's had at the International Court, the Hague, to which he was kicked to the curb, because he's quite honestly been a dirtbag his entire life, his entire prosecutorial life, doing whatever he wanted to do, following absolutely no guidelines.
00:01:42.640 So I guess there was really no better man to go after President Trump to investigate President Trump.
00:01:50.100 I would say Robert Mueller, but he had the advanced signs of dementia at that point.
00:01:55.180 So I don't think they could have trusted him again.
00:01:57.140 But I think when you look down the list of people that Jack Smith, there was no better person than him to do this job.
00:02:05.980 So I want to start begin tonight with with his opening statement and his line, because it started as soon as he walked in that room with the tales and the fables and the fibs that he was telling.
00:02:16.300 Now, watch him with a straight face and say you could tell someone's a sociopath.
00:02:20.460 Here he is. Chairman Grassley, Ranking Member Durbin, members of the committee.
00:02:25.620 Thank you for the opportunity to discuss my work as special counsel.
00:02:30.020 I've been fortunate to serve a country that I love for nearly 30 years in local, national, and international settings.
00:02:38.960 My service has spanned both Republican and Democratic administrations.
00:02:43.900 I am not a politician, and I have no partisan loyalty.
00:02:48.840 My career has been dedicated to serving our country by upholding the rule of law and the core principles upon which our country was founded.
00:02:58.260 I believe there is no role for politics in the proper administration of justice.
00:03:04.600 A prosecutor's decisions must be based on the facts and the law.
00:03:09.740 The status, power, prominence, or political affiliation of the subject of an investigation
00:03:16.700 must play no role in the decision to investigate, prosecute, or decline to prosecute.
00:03:24.180 I approached my role as special counsel following these principles the special
00:03:30.240 counsel's office followed Justice Department policy observed legal
00:03:34.780 requirements and took actions based on the facts and the law I stand by my
00:03:41.280 decisions as special counsel including my decision to bring charges against
00:03:45.900 President Trump I made those decisions without regard to President Trump's
00:03:51.300 political association activities beliefs or candidacy in the 2024 presidential election
00:04:00.900 our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that president trump engaged
00:04:06.820 in serious crimes against our nation if asked whether to prosecute a former president
00:04:14.020 today based on the same facts i would do so regardless of whether that president
00:04:19.540 was a republican or a democrat the charges against president trump were the result of the evidence
00:04:28.100 grand juries in two separate districts reached this conclusion based on his actions as alleged
00:04:35.060 in the indictments they returned rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 presidential election
00:04:42.020 president trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful
00:04:48.660 transfer of power. After leaving office in January of 2021, President Trump illegally
00:04:55.640 kept classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago social club and repeatedly tried to obstruct
00:05:01.860 justice to conceal his continued retention of those documents. Highly sensitive national
00:05:08.760 security information was held in a bathroom and a ballroom where events and gatherings
00:05:14.980 took place. As with my appearance before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on the
00:05:21.820 Judiciary, I am prepared to answer your questions truthfully. I stand by my testimony before the
00:05:28.420 House of Representatives, and I will not be silenced by continued threats of prosecution
00:05:35.280 from the President or others. As I appear before you today, it is my belief that the rule of law
00:05:43.700 faces challenges unlike any we have experienced in our lifetime. Individuals are threatened with
00:05:51.060 criminal prosecution because they are perceived to have opposed the president. Predetermined
00:05:57.320 outcomes increasingly seem to take precedence over the Justice Department's long-standing core
00:06:03.100 values and traditions. History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once.
00:06:09.460 It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it.
00:06:17.160 Since January of 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort, including the vilification of the agents, prosecutors and staff who worked on my team, simply because of their unwavering dedication to the rule of law.
00:06:34.280 I myself have been threatened with jail by the president of the United States.
00:06:39.460 However, I remain confident that the rule of law will endure because so many continue to uphold it faithfully each day.
00:06:50.000 Throughout our legal system, public servants have remained faithful to their oaths, despite extraordinary pressure to do otherwise.
00:06:59.600 Their example demonstrates that while fear may be contagious, courage is as well.
00:07:07.180 Thank you for the opportunity to testify today. I look forward to your questions.
00:07:14.420 Is that not the biggest joke in the world? How many lives did he go through there?
00:07:20.940 He talked. We'll start with the grand jury that he impaneled the two grand juries.
00:07:25.480 I'm sure those weren't handpicked at all. I'm sure they were completely honorable decisions because Jack Smith is an honorable person.
00:07:33.460 Right. After just watching that, a guy who sits there with a straight face like that can't possibly be a lying SOB, but he is the rules, the laws that he alleges President Trump broke.
00:07:46.440 By the way, those cases were thrown out before he got there because one smart judge down in Florida, Eileen Cannon, realized that this is a political hit job.
00:07:56.280 And we're going to tell you a little bit more about the information we found out today to find out that it was even more politically motivated down to the granular level of people like you and I than originally expected.
00:08:10.080 How it was politically motivated in the point of targeting media, targeting individual Americans, donors.
00:08:20.100 That's not politically motivated, Jack.
00:08:22.340 there's no political motivation to getting records that we're going to tell you about
00:08:27.640 in just a few moments the lies and deceit from this man with a straight face and of course the
00:08:34.440 democrats revere him as this honorable character who's just a great public servant he then mentions
00:08:43.300 his prosecutors who were fired many now who we find out went around loopholes i wouldn't even
00:08:50.340 call them loopholes, but this is what the media calls them loopholes. I call it straight out
00:08:55.240 criminal activity to issue subpoenas, to subpoena documents, to gag order members of Congress
00:09:04.960 from finding out that the White House was involved in these schemes.
00:09:09.600 This is something like we've never seen before in this country. And the two crimes that he accused
00:09:14.980 President Trump of? The willful retention of classified documents, which would have went to
00:09:20.460 the Supreme Court and been overruled because the president has absolute immunity and power.
00:09:26.180 And from legal precedent and what we've seen, when the president takes something out of a
00:09:30.000 classified Senate by default, it is declassified. The only person in this country who can do that.
00:09:38.400 you had mike pence retention of classified documents they decided not to prosecute
00:09:46.440 joe biden retention of documents in his garage and they said we can't prosecute because he's
00:09:53.600 for brains the guy's brains are scrambled eggs but the media's out there every day telling us
00:10:00.500 president trump's got dementia president trump is dying he's got a bruise on his hand he's losing it
00:10:04.940 so where's the double stand i mean that's not a double standard one day you're telling us he's
00:10:12.000 dying and he's lost his mind he's got dementia but then the next day he's great to withstand
00:10:16.240 trial for 700 years in jail for crimes that are in crimes and of course the second crime in which
00:10:22.040 she speaks about january 6th which i think was the greatest fed surrection this country's ever
00:10:26.800 seen before not my opinion this is the fact we've looked at how many government witnesses were there
00:10:35.900 how many government agents were there which is odd in my opinion why they would be there
00:10:42.100 the whole capital scam the breaking of windows that that's a whole different story but so then
00:10:50.000 he goes on to say president trump you know sought to stay in power the odd thing is jack is you
00:10:55.060 didn't prosecute him or persecute him rather or investigate him until after he left office
00:10:59.720 so he willingly left office but here you're sitting us sitting here telling us that he had
00:11:08.060 no plans to leave office and he wanted to stay in power so which one is it because the facts just 0.99
00:11:12.540 don't align with what your opinion is scumbag we're going to take a quick break your life 0.96

00:11:28.740 side of this quick break jack smith collected nearly 5 000 personal checks 5 000 not from
00:11:35.520 politicians from individual americans like you and i we're not talking thousand dollar checks
00:11:43.960 two thousand dollar checks we're talking 10 to 15 dollar checks we're coming right back on the
00:11:49.760 other side of this quick break so please stay with us the great america show continues in just
00:11:52.620 moments don't turn that down thanks everybody for staying with us here live tonight for the
00:12:02.040 great america show we truly appreciate you guys tuning in be sure to tap in on that chat let us
00:12:05.460 know where you're tuned in from if you're enjoying the great america show and we appreciate like i
00:12:08.560 said at any time you guys are live with us so 5 000 almost 5 000 well we want to be accurate here
00:12:14.480 So it was like 4,000 and change, 4,782 ordinary Americans targeted by Jack Smith.
00:12:24.040 Imagine that.
00:12:25.680 Who are these people?
00:12:27.000 Well, they're personal people, personal checks from people who donated to President Trump or Trump aligned groups from the dates of September of 2019 to August of 2023.
00:12:38.080 these were of course all acquired as part of arctic frost the election scam this allowed the
00:12:45.440 biden doj a department of injustice that is and the fbi to gain access nearly 5 000 americans
00:12:51.240 highly sensitive information from all 50 states this wasn't just people in dc or in red florida
00:12:57.960 or red texas all around imagine that we just find out about this now two years in the president
00:13:04.780 Trump's administration. We're just finding out about it. Senator Chuck Grass, who chairs up
00:13:09.540 that committee, had some words to say for Mr. Jackson. Acquired financial information. As I sit
00:13:14.240 here right now, I cannot recite to you every subpoena we issued. I can tell you why we issued
00:13:19.780 subpoenas, and it was to conduct a criminal investigation of one of the most serious crimes
00:13:25.160 that's ever happened in our nation's history. I had a duty to collect facts. Let me say,
00:13:30.140 indeed you did and you answered yes accordingly to protect disclosures to my office you obtained
00:13:37.020 at least 4,782 donor checks many of those checks were five to ten dollars the list includes checks
00:13:47.180 from constituents in every state of every single member of this committee both republicans and
00:13:53.580 Democrats, it included 42 checks from Iowans who dared to donate money to Republicans.
00:14:00.640 No matter what you say, there is no legitimate basis for what you did, especially since your
00:14:07.120 staff killed in an investigation into the Clinton campaign. Donations to Republican groups wasn't
00:14:15.400 necessary for your investigation, which is proved out by the fact that it was not mentioned in your
00:14:22.380 public report. Now the Justice Department and the FBI will forever possess thousands of people's
00:14:29.580 address, phone number, bank and bank account number, bank routing number, and a copy of their
00:14:37.980 true signature. Every member of this committee ought to be outraged for what happened to their
00:14:43.520 constituents. I hope my Democratic colleagues will join me in this outrage. Question number three.
00:14:50.540 In October last year, I asked you this question, but you never responded.
00:14:57.380 Did you ever use a personal device for work purposes to include communications such as email, text, or creation or editing of work product?
00:15:08.740 If so, do you commit to providing that material to the committee?
00:15:12.920 If not, are you testifying that you've complied with all federal record requirements?
00:15:18.380 yes when i first became special counsel i did not have a government phone or government computer
00:15:29.560 and so in the initial days when i was uh appointed and i was still living in the netherlands uh i did
00:15:36.640 use a personal device and email interesting so just off that point real quickly uh he used a
00:15:44.920 personal device. But this is a man who presumably, presumably had some sort of security clearance if
00:15:50.360 he's going to be investigating these files, these highly sensitive classified documents that
00:15:54.940 President Trump stole and put in the bathroom in the ballroom Mar-a-Lago. Presumably, Jack Smith
00:15:59.960 used a government phone that's encrypted. Otherwise, he'd be guilty of the same crime
00:16:04.860 that Hillary Clinton was committing, which, of course, she wasn't convicted of or prosecuted for
00:16:10.260 because James Comey had this lovable admiration for her.
00:16:15.880 The pot calling the kettle black. 0.83
00:16:17.440 It's what the Democrats do.
00:16:20.740 They tell you what you're doing,
00:16:22.760 but they're really the ones who are doing it.
00:16:24.480 It's a gaslighting operation.
00:16:26.500 Now, going back to him forgetting about those checks,
00:16:29.700 the 4,700 plus checks,
00:16:31.700 you mean to tell me he couldn't remember
00:16:35.480 subpoenaing 5,000 innocent Americans
00:16:39.640 and their bank records out of all the things he investigated i can understand forgetting minutia
00:16:46.880 but subpoenaing 5 000 americans who had absolutely nothing to do with anything and their sole crime
00:16:54.480 was they donated 10 or 15 bucks and by the way these people are donating 10 and 15 bucks
00:16:59.540 which are honestly preferable donations to politicians and they appreciate those more
00:17:04.040 than the big dollar donors because they know that those are the people who are voting for them
00:17:08.140 They're not your high-powered lobbyists.
00:17:11.660 It's your ordinary American.
00:17:14.960 When I worked in campaigns, I couldn't tell you how many times we'd go to events
00:17:18.060 and get donations sent to the headquarters from elderly people who would tell us they're elderly,
00:17:25.040 they're on Social Security, but here's a $10 check, and we hope it can go a long way.
00:17:31.920 Well, guess what?
00:17:32.740 $10 buys three lawn signs.
00:17:34.660 So every dollar does count the campaign. 0.97
00:17:36.600 But in my time of working campaigns, I can't tell you how many times or we'd get cash that we'd have to send back from an elderly person. 0.99
00:17:43.860 This is you know, this is all I could afford. But I want to show you that I'm supporting the campaign. 1.00
00:17:47.540 So so put that in perspective. To the 5000 number that this scumbag subpoenaed from 50 states, I have to assume I'm probably in there as well. 0.95
00:17:57.520 this is him this is this is jack smith the big tough guy who was getting to the bottom of crimes 0.93
00:18:05.460 the crime supporting president trump we're live tonight folks tune in uh jumping on that chat let
00:18:11.280 us know where you're tuned in from uh we got another uh revelation today of jack smith's
00:18:17.040 illegal spy gate i guess we can call it who was jack smith spying on it wasn't just ordinary
00:18:22.840 americans he had another ulterior motive we're going to tell you all about it on the other side
00:18:27.260 this quick break so don't turn that dial we'll come right back thanks everybody for staying with
00:18:36.400 us here live tonight for the great america show if you're not fired in on that chat tune into that

00:18:51.860 decently good job uh at getting a way broader audience here it's it's been one of the hardest

00:19:23.500 that you listen and uh i think we do have a pretty dedicated audience and i do truly truly
00:19:28.080 from the bottom of my heart appreciate you guys so 5 000 checks nearly 5 000 i want to be accurate
00:19:33.060 4 000 and change of innocent americans who just like i said the crime was donated for as president
00:19:38.540 trump it turns out jack smith also obtained records that was canadian communications between
00:19:44.300 nearly 50 journalists and trump administration officials including but not limited to fox news
00:19:50.560 personnel of course after subpoenaing text messages and records associated with dozens
00:19:55.220 of white house phones during the federal election investigation into president trump
00:19:58.580 fox news obtaining these documents that show the utter corruption the communications appeared in
00:20:06.560 records produced by the national archives in response to a subpoena seeking materials
00:20:10.360 associated with 87 white house phones from president trump's first administration fox
00:20:16.380 news of course among one of the organizations uh whose journalist appeared in the records
00:20:20.280 i have to assume probably lou dobbs is in there i think we're gonna have to try to get these records
00:20:24.680 along with cnn cbs news news news magazine uh 60 minutes nbc news cnbc records also included
00:20:33.480 communications involving journalists from the wall street journal the washington post
00:20:37.100 bloomberg the la times new york magazine reuters associated press npr as well as the federalist
00:20:43.480 and The Washington Times. What do those all have in common? Most of them, for the most part,
00:20:48.800 are pretty conservative-leaning or down-the-middle-leaning news organizations.
00:20:54.940 Here's Senator Chuck Grassley, or I should say Chairman Chuck Grassley, on Jack Smith's latest
00:21:00.440 scheme. Smith's subpoenas targeted hundreds of Republican groups and individuals. He subpoenaed
00:21:10.200 communications those folks had with media and with the legislative branch. He also subpoenaed 87
00:21:20.700 Trump White House phones, knowing that they'd include communications with members of Congress,
00:21:29.780 44 members, just to be exact. He failed to filter out speech and debate privilege information
00:21:39.700 even though he and his teams knew that they'd scoop it up with their request.
00:21:47.080 What I can say today is that Smith also obtained communications from members of the media
00:21:54.820 to include 60 Minutes, Associated Press, Bloomberg, CBS, CNBC, CNN, Fox News,
00:22:06.260 L.A. Times, Mark Levin Show, Media Research Center, NBC, NPR, New York Magazine, Royer's, The Federalist, The Washington Post, Washington Times, and The Wall Street Journal.
00:22:26.440 Now, what will partisan media say about this disgraceful government overreach?
00:22:36.960 I want to hear their response, and I will if they are responsible media.
00:22:45.300 This wasn't a normal prosecution by any means.
00:22:50.340 I guess that's normal, right?
00:22:52.440 Subpoenaing journalists?
00:22:56.440 speech and debate clause freedom of the press that none of that stuff exists i guess when you're
00:23:01.880 on the right of the aisle when you're on the left you know you commit any crime you want
00:23:07.620 apparently perjury retention of classified documents um transmitting sensitive information
00:23:15.660 over personal phone lines you can do all that stuff but uh when the shoe is on the other foot
00:23:20.880 not so much you're you're a criminal you're indicted 700 years in jail and so on and so forth
00:23:29.280 at least according to uh jack smith's ruling because he's judge jury executioner or whatever
00:23:37.200 the heck you want to call him now smith doubled down on his testimony he didn't care who president
00:23:42.920 trump was a president a leading candidate he's a criminal no due process no jury trial no judge
00:23:51.520 trial smith declares he is guilty our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt
00:23:58.700 that president trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation if asked whether to prosecute
00:24:06.440 a former president today based on the same facts, I would do so regardless of whether
00:24:12.960 that president was a Republican or a Democrat.
00:24:17.520 The charges against President Trump were the result of the evidence.
00:24:22.620 Grand juries in two separate districts reached this conclusion based on his actions, as alleged
00:24:29.420 in the indictments they returned.
00:24:30.960 Rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 presidential election, President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power.
00:24:45.060 After leaving office in January of 2021, President Trump illegally kept classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago Social Club and repeated.
00:24:54.640 You don't have to listen to the lies of that anymore, but I just want to reiterate there.
00:25:00.960 His lies. There was a peaceful transition of powers. A matter of fact, Joe Biden, who apparently hates President Trump mightily, Trump left before he even swore himself in, before the corpse of Joe Biden was even sworn in. He did him a favor. He didn't even show up.
00:25:17.820 Doesn't sound like a man who was there with a military ready to take over the country from a militia. 1.00
00:25:27.420 I mean, the stupidity of it and people take this guy's word seriously. 1.00
00:25:35.280 I mean, he's corrupt as anybody ever seen in my life. 1.00
00:25:42.500 Josh Hawley had some tense words for Mr. Smith.
00:25:46.700 uh mr smith i have to start by saying i think that maybe i underestimated you i underestimated
00:25:53.680 in particular your comedic talent i've been watching this whole hearing i've watched
00:25:58.200 everything you said i noticed that you began by saying i have no partisan loyalty and you
00:26:03.840 repeated over and over and over there's nothing in your investigation about politics that's
00:26:08.720 hilarious in fact your investigation was all about politics from day one your investigation
00:26:15.000 so-called, your prosecution so-called, was nothing other than an attempt to interfere
00:26:20.320 politically in a presidential election in the United States of America.
00:26:26.280 You twice indicted a presidential candidate, the leading presidential candidate and a former
00:26:32.480 president of the United States, during a presidential election against all Justice Department
00:26:36.980 policy, against all Justice Department history, something never before seen or contemplated
00:26:43.080 in 250 years of this country's history, you did it anyway, all for the purpose of keeping Donald
00:26:48.660 Trump off the ballot, all for the purpose of denying the voters an opportunity to vote on a
00:26:56.020 former president of the United States and at the time the Republican nominee for president. We've
00:27:01.500 never seen anything like it in our country's history before. If you'd had your way, our elections in
00:27:05.700 this country would be like Russia's, the one they just held. Oh, they had an election, sure. And they
00:27:10.220 had an opposition. Sure. It's just that Putin chose the opposition, which is exactly what
00:27:15.560 the Biden Justice Department wanted to do with Donald J. Trump. And that's exactly what
00:27:21.220 you were doing. Justice Department policy. That's funny from Holly, as there is such
00:27:27.740 thing. I guess there is such thing if you're Todd Blanche and Kash Patel following the
00:27:33.660 rules, as opposed to Jack Smith and Merrick Garland and the lives there who just ran this
00:27:39.480 rogue illegal
00:27:41.820 operation.
00:27:43.640 Holly and Grassley were
00:27:45.360 too far from the only two people who
00:27:47.540 had a leveling.
00:27:49.600 Ted Cruz, who's a hell of an attorney,
00:27:51.880 a constitutional attorney.
00:27:53.340 I don't agree with him on a lot of things, but
00:27:55.400 I'm not going to deny the fact that he's smart
00:27:57.580 as heck and I'm not going to
00:27:59.560 deny the fact that
00:28:00.380 he's not one of the best
00:28:02.520 people to grill a witness
00:28:04.980 on planet Earth.
00:28:07.100 Like I said, doing my differences with him
00:28:08.920 Some other things. But he absolutely, absolutely. Levels him.
00:28:17.320 Did your team subpoena records concerning the Republican National Committee?
00:28:23.240 We subpoenaed a number of records. That's a yes or no question.
00:28:29.280 I do not have. I just want to be clear with you, Senator. I do not have a recollection of every subpoena.
00:28:34.300 We did subpoena numerous records. Did your team subpoena the RNC?
00:28:38.920 I would have to look at those records, but we did.
00:28:41.280 You're testifying you don't remember?
00:28:42.680 Yes, no, or I don't remember.
00:28:43.780 There's your three options.
00:28:45.460 It is very possible.
00:28:47.120 I do not have a recollection.
00:28:48.340 Did your team subpoena Turning Point USA?
00:28:52.920 Again, I would have to look at the records.
00:28:54.280 Do you have any idea who you subpoenaed?
00:28:56.080 Can you name?
00:28:57.100 All right.
00:28:57.820 Let me help you.
00:28:59.800 Did your team subpoena the Conservative Partnership Institute?
00:29:03.980 That I do remember, yes.
00:29:05.400 Okay, good.
00:29:05.900 We found one.
00:29:07.100 And I can explain why.
00:29:08.000 Did your subpoenas demand communications with Fox News?
00:29:13.980 The subpoenas that we issued did ask for communication regarding ad buys
00:29:19.640 because it was relevant to the false statements we were investigating.
00:29:23.380 Purchasing advertising on a news agency you somehow believe is criminal.
00:29:27.360 Did your team seek and obtain donor and fundraising data?
00:29:33.100 I would have to look at the subpoenas, but again, I'm happy to...
00:29:36.240 You don't know if you had donor and fundraising data?
00:29:39.040 I'm happy to explain why we issued these.
00:29:41.420 Do you know if you had donor and fundraising data?
00:29:43.560 I would have to look at the subpoenas.
00:29:45.080 You don't know?
00:29:46.640 Are you testifying right now you don't know if you obtained donor and fundraising data?
00:29:54.180 You can sigh all you like.
00:29:55.740 It's a very simple question. 0.88
00:29:56.920 You know damn well you did.
00:29:58.520 You've been questioned about the checks that you guys got. 0.86
00:30:01.480 You know the answer.
00:30:03.720 So why don't you answer the question?
00:30:06.240 Did your team obtain donor and fundraising information?
00:30:10.500 It's a yes.
00:30:11.060 You can say yes.
00:30:13.260 I do not recall the attachments to specific subpoenas.
00:30:17.500 I'm happy to explain why we issued.
00:30:18.620 So you're testifying you don't remember if you got donor and fundraising material?
00:30:22.920 Really?
00:30:25.380 I do not recall because I have not seen those subpoenas in a very long time.
00:30:30.260 But I'm happy to explain why we issued.
00:30:33.100 Look, I get you want to dance and avoid the questions.
00:30:35.320 I understand it because you can't answer a simple, straightforward question.
00:30:38.580 All in all, you issued one hundred and ninety seven subpoenas to thirty four individuals, at least in one hundred and sixty three businesses.
00:30:45.000 And you sought records on at least four hundred and thirty Republican individuals and entities.
00:30:50.740 Is that right? And you're going to say you don't remember. Is that correct?
00:30:53.860 I do not recall those numbers. I understand.
00:30:56.900 You know, if you look at the list, there is one thing that is consistent.
00:31:00.500 every name on it is a Republican. Is it your view? Is it a crime to be a Republican?
00:31:08.140 Absolutely not, sir. Is it a crime to write a check to Republicans?
00:31:12.540 It is not. And I'm happy to explain why we issued these subpoenas, if you'd like.
00:31:18.240 Sure. Briefly, we had to conduct an investigation about whether any person
00:31:23.980 or entity violated the law with respect to the attempt to block the peaceful transfer of power.
00:31:30.500 to make that decision. Yes, I understand. And you use that as an excuse to engage in a massive
00:31:35.260 fishing expedition targeting over 400 Republicans. And it was disgraceful. Let's just talk about
00:31:40.780 the United States Senate. You issued subpoenas for more than 20 percent of the Republicans 0.87
00:31:47.300 in the Senate. You hear his explanation there? He subpoenaed those forty seven hundred Americans
00:31:53.500 because he needed to see if there was crimes committed. Imagine that. I don't think it gets
00:31:59.780 much worse than this testimony today from jack smith it's certainly not looking good and hopefully
00:32:06.820 the powers that be todd blanche doj the fbi they get right on this because us as ordinary average
00:32:14.680 americans who aren't attorneys we see the crimes right before our eyes that's all for us folks
