Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to the Great America Saturday Show.
00:00:39.720
And Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin testifying on Capitol Hill this week,
00:00:44.020
taking a lot of flack for his dereliction of duty when he didn't tell the president of the United States that he has cancer
00:00:51.080
and not telling the president that he was rushed to the hospital until days after the incident.
00:00:57.340
Congressman Matt Gaetz asked the secretary why he should get away with that
00:01:01.720
and if he will reinstate those service members who were discharged for far less for not taking the vaccine.
00:01:11.100
You didn't tell the president that you had cancer, that you were being treated for cancer,
00:01:16.340
or that the treatment for that cancer had gone wrong because you saw it as personal and medical.
00:01:22.860
And I think a lot of us have empathy for you in that regard.
00:01:25.400
But now that you see how personal medical decisions are,
00:01:31.140
will you call for the re-recruitment, restoration of full rank, and back pay for the 8,600 service members
00:01:51.720
And in that memo, you said that there would be clear and swift accountability
00:01:56.600
for anyone who didn't meet the highest standards of the Department of Defense.
00:02:01.060
Now, however this worked out, we all acknowledge that what you did here didn't meet the highest standards, right?
00:02:10.040
So then the question is, what becomes the clear and swift accountability?
00:02:20.320
Okay, you're not going to be suspended, you're not going to be demoted,
00:02:25.100
None of those things are going to happen to you, right?
00:02:27.460
So no reinstatement for those service members while Austin keeps his job.
00:02:33.100
Another Biden regime member derelict in his duties has recently impeached DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
00:02:39.880
A new poll from Harvard-Harris reveals 62% of Americans now support the impeachment of Mayorkas.
00:02:48.020
It seems like everyone in the Biden regime could be impeached.
00:02:54.600
He's former special assistant to President Trump.
00:02:57.640
And Peter, it's great to have you with us on The Great America Show.
00:03:01.040
Joe Biden completed his annual physical this past week,
00:03:04.320
and the White House doctor says he's in tip-top shape.
00:03:07.320
We all know that's not true, and Joe Biden knows it's not true.
00:03:14.280
which is why he's throwing indictment after indictment at him.
00:03:17.500
What are your thoughts on this gross weaponization of our federal government?
00:03:23.540
As soon as they started throwing all those indictments, the gloves had to come off.
00:03:34.820
I could go to be in prison a couple weeks for, what, doing my duty to the Constitution in my country.
00:03:43.140
And being in prison for a crime that never was a crime.
00:03:47.220
I'm literally the first person in history, first senior White House advisor ever charged with this.
00:03:53.040
And it's the same kind of thing that they're doing with Trump.
00:03:56.520
These novel, twisted, tortured applications of inapplicable laws
00:04:02.120
that try to deny Americans the opportunity to be able to choose their next president.
00:04:11.540
But we are here, and we have to acknowledge that, and we have to do what we must do.
00:04:15.640
And I think of those 1,200 Americans who have been sent to the gulag, the D.C. gulag,
00:04:23.800
some for three years without a trial date, without a trial.
00:04:29.080
You and Steve Bannon, the charges that are brought.
00:04:35.760
This is absolutely, unequivocally, nothing more than simple, just persecution without cause, without law.
00:04:48.320
No one is stopping what's happened to those 1,200 folks in the gulag.
00:04:52.240
We are watching this country with one illegitimate president just tearing up the Constitution and law.
00:05:00.660
Well, it's going to be up to the higher courts now.
00:05:03.040
I mean, in the best case scenario, Lou, my case will be what it should be,
00:05:07.500
which is a landmark case involving the constitutional separation of powers.
00:05:13.480
And the role that since George Washington has executive privilege has played in promoting effective presidential decision-making.
00:05:23.980
And right now, my case is about how Congress, the Democrat-controlled Congress,
00:05:31.100
assaulted the separation of powers in a way where they abused their subpoena power.
00:05:35.820
And look, if I'm able to win at the higher level and what they call settle a good law on this,
00:05:43.860
then it'll all have been worth it, even if I have to go to prison for some months while it plays out.
00:05:53.660
For them to sit and shoot a prison, to bring the charges to begin with,
00:06:00.000
to overthrow the concept of presidential privilege, executive privilege, is outrageous.
00:06:09.220
And I'm telling you this, I care deeply about you as a person, your good friend.
00:06:18.040
And I have to say, I don't know how you keep your equanimity,
00:06:21.680
because I'm outraged to the point, and so frustrated as are most Americans,
00:06:26.820
that's because we can't do a damn thing to offset what is obvious political persecution and corruption
00:06:33.640
in the Department of Justice of the United States.
00:06:37.000
Look, whenever I try to think about any kind of pity party for myself,
00:06:42.840
they say, yeah, you know, four months, you're going to put me in prison.
00:06:45.220
They want to put Donald Trump in for 700 years.
00:06:48.420
OK, and I just take strength from the way he has been able to handle four different criminal court cases
00:06:59.240
coming at him and then the theft of his property in New York by a rogue judge.
00:07:05.060
And, yeah, look, look, the men and women in this country who go over to places like Afghanistan
00:07:12.560
and Iraq and God knows where to risk their lives.
00:07:17.540
I mean, look, I'm not that I'm not brave like those folks are.
00:07:27.660
But I know, Lou, in my heart, I'm standing up for principle here.
00:07:31.680
Well, and we all respect you immensely for what you're doing.
00:07:34.860
But that does not for one moment lessen the outrage of the American public at this Justice Department,
00:07:42.880
this president, and this FBI for what they have done to you.
00:07:51.500
The president, as you say, facing 700 years on the basis of four indictments and ancillary charges.
00:08:00.940
Because we're in a place right now, you're a scholar, you're as well as a presidential assistant.
00:08:10.200
And we are in a place that has never been dreamed of in this country.
00:08:16.160
And we have people walking around here who are as outraged as I am, many of them more so, I suppose.
00:08:25.940
But right now, we seem to be in the minority in this country.
00:08:31.480
Well, I'm glad you say that, Lou, because it's not the American people who are outraged in my situation or Donald Trump's situation.
00:08:43.720
And the radical Democrats, I think you coined the term years back,
00:08:48.260
get the hate mail, the social media bullshit, and all that crap.
00:08:55.240
They love seeing folks like me and Donald Trump in prison.
00:08:59.120
And they don't understand that the bigger issue here is that if the justice system can be weaponized in such a way
00:09:08.620
as to put people like me and Donald Trump in prison,
00:09:11.960
what happens when the other party gets control of that?
00:09:17.760
I'm fighting for the de-weaponization of our justice system
00:09:22.700
so that what we can have is the rule of law which the Democrats purport to support,
00:09:31.860
Well, as you put it that way, when you look at this moment in history,
00:09:42.280
The Democrat Party, and now I have updated the lingo.
00:09:52.440
And they've proved it time and time again in the persecutions that they've carried out,
00:09:59.820
and the Constitution they violate with impunity.
00:10:05.180
And so I wonder when we're going to accept the reality that the Democrat,
00:10:12.760
what was the Democrat Party, is now the Marxist-led Democrat Party,
00:10:22.320
And with this weaponization you're talking about,
00:10:24.580
I don't see anything other than to say they have declared us the enemy,
00:10:28.720
and therefore they are the enemy of the people.
00:10:31.780
Let me try, I want to refine this a little bit.
00:10:36.320
They are Marxists, I think, in an economic sense,
00:10:39.020
but to me they're more like Stalinists and the Chinese Communist Party
00:10:45.060
with respect to how they've weaponized the criminal justice system.
00:10:49.460
And one of the biggest surprises and shocks to me, Lou,
00:10:58.420
the judge had stripped me of every single defense.
00:11:07.200
by the time the case was able to be allowed before the jury.
00:11:14.560
As my lawyer loves to say, that can't be the law.
00:11:20.400
But that's what a court in Russia or Communist China,
00:11:27.240
So, let's assume that there is an opportunity here
00:11:41.440
that intervention can only come from one place now,
00:11:44.840
and that is the Supreme Court, as I understand it.
00:11:50.240
we're going to be talking about the prospects of intervention
00:11:53.020
and the possibilities that this country can be righted.
00:12:04.240
It's sickening, and it's disgusting to all of us.
00:12:13.860
because we're going to be right back with Peter Navarro,
00:12:20.960
Folks, you know I beg everyone to get ready for the next crisis,
00:12:26.780
and when it comes, our lives will likely change overnight,
00:12:30.240
whether it's natural disaster, war, or another disease.
00:12:37.660
when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains.
00:12:41.060
We're still dependent on China and other countries
