00:00:00.000 Lou Dobbs with the Great America Show update for Wednesday, June 19th.
00:00:04.740 Republican Congressman Thomas Massey, Andy Biggs, Eric Burleson have introduced a resolution
00:00:11.020 to rescind the congressional subpoenas that were issued to Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro,
00:00:17.100 Dan Scavino and Mark Meadows.
00:00:19.220 The resolution would also officially repudiate the actions of the January 6th committee as
00:00:24.980 entirely illegitimate.
00:00:26.860 Congressman Massey called on the Speaker to rescind those subpoenas almost two weeks
00:00:32.240 ago.
00:00:32.840 Now, Massey has introduced a bill on his own and suggests that Speaker Johnson again is
00:00:38.880 slinking away from doing the right thing.
00:00:41.880 Congressman Massey points out this resolution does not require Senate approval.
00:00:46.820 The original subpoenas were issued unilaterally by the House so the House can rescind them
00:00:52.800 unilaterally.
00:00:53.740 And it reminds Speaker Johnson that time is of the essence.
00:00:58.840 You won't believe this one.
00:01:00.260 The city of Seattle is recruiting illegal aliens to become police officers.
00:01:05.960 The city is recruiting DACA recipients who we were told originally didn't have criminal
00:01:12.140 records.
00:01:12.960 But it turns out they do.
00:01:14.620 Almost 70,000 of them do.
00:01:17.100 Including charges for burglary and assault.
00:01:19.860 The Seattle government defunded and demoralized the police.
00:01:24.180 And then, when residents came to their senses, no one could find a police officer when they
00:01:29.520 needed one.
00:01:30.560 And the city couldn't find anyone who wanted the job.
00:01:34.260 So this is their latest effort to find cops.
00:01:37.380 To give them a gun and a badge to people who, by definition, are criminals.
00:01:42.220 Entering the United States illegally.
00:01:44.540 And worse.
00:01:45.180 Los Angeles is doing the same thing.
00:01:48.540 Turning over law enforcement to lawbreakers and outlaws is on its face not very bright. 1.00
00:01:55.000 Giving them a badge and a gun, even while off-duty, amounts to the most remarkably stupid idea. 0.99
00:02:01.600 But Seattle and California are certainly among the likely suspects for coming up with such 1.00
00:02:07.180 madness.
00:02:07.560 And Trump advisor Cash Patel says the House of Representatives does have the authority to
00:02:13.000 arrest Attorney General Merrick Garland for not complying with a congressional subpoena.
00:02:18.920 Congress not only can arrest Garland, but they can hold him in detention until he complies.
00:02:24.840 The House has what Patel calls inherent power to detain the witness in the custody of the
00:02:30.360 House Sergeant of Arms.
00:02:31.560 Our podcast guest today is cybersecurity and intelligence expert Mike Benz.
00:02:38.440 We take up Bill Barr and why Mike Benz calls Barr the CIA's top janitor.
00:02:44.880 What are the odds that one man would have a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, President
00:02:50.540 George H.W. Bush, former CIA Director Bill Colby, and the list goes on.
00:02:56.260 And who was Attorney General twice, and as such, responsible for Jeffrey Epstein's death while
00:03:03.660 behind bars.
00:03:05.140 Please join us.
00:03:06.240 Thanks.
00:03:06.800 Have a great day.
00:03:08.100 This is Lou Dobbs with the Great America Update.
