00:01:01.380 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show,
00:01:03.200 live on SiriusXM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.
00:01:12.520 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly.
00:01:14.140 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show,
00:01:15.440 coming to you live from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
00:01:20.280 We will be here over the next couple of days,
00:01:22.180 and during today's show, we're going to be joined on set by two of the big convention speakers,
00:01:27.120 Congresswoman Elise Stefanik of New York and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:01:32.280 And we have a huge development involving the Democratic Party
00:01:35.740 and its efforts to get rid of President Biden as their nominee for a second term.
00:01:40.700 The guys from the Ruthless program,
00:01:43.140 now they're already booked,
00:01:44.000 they're also going to be here today,
00:01:45.000 it's a banner day,
00:01:45.660 they're going to be joining us during this show,
00:01:48.380 and they broke some major news on their show today.
00:01:51.560 These guys, you may know them as the lovable pundits
00:01:53.840 who have lots of smart thoughts on all things in the news,
00:01:57.040 but their day jobs are,
00:01:58.500 they work with Republicans to get them elected or re-elected,
00:02:01.080 and they've got a lot of good contacts on the Hill.
00:02:03.780 They are reporting
00:02:04.980 that they are hearing
00:02:06.920 that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer,
00:02:09.820 when we know he recently went
00:02:11.100 to President Biden's home in Delaware this weekend,
00:02:13.100 that what he did while there was asked Mr. Biden
00:02:16.880 to step aside as the party's nominee.
00:02:19.480 If that's true, that's huge.
00:02:21.380 We have not heard anything putting it right on Schumer yet.
00:02:23.500 We saw Pelosi's machinations about a week ago.
00:02:27.140 Haven't heard this from Schumer so far.
00:02:28.860 He was saying, I'm with Joe, I'm with Joe.
00:02:31.020 Or is he?
00:02:32.860 So we didn't know the details.
00:02:35.060 We don't know officially the details of what they talked about.
00:02:37.380 We're just saying what the Ruthless program reported.
00:02:40.300 We are told that Senator Schumer went over
00:02:42.780 recent polling with the president,
00:02:45.260 and in the end,
00:02:47.060 that wasn't received very well by the sitting president.
00:02:49.700 Apparently he wasn't persuaded.
00:02:51.400 But the fact that now Schumer's bringing it to him,
00:02:53.280 at least according to our friends,
00:02:54.860 is significant.
00:02:56.060 We'll get into all of that.
00:02:56.980 The guys will be here shortly.
00:02:57.840 We'll go in depth.
00:02:58.760 But back to what's happening here.
00:03:00.660 This week's big theme has been unity
00:03:02.860 in the wake of the assassination attempt
00:03:04.780 on former President Trump.
00:03:06.480 Some of his biggest GOP rivals
00:03:07.860 have been here on hand to make it clear
00:03:09.800 they are firmly,
00:03:11.280 not a little,
00:03:12.500 not sort of,
00:03:13.500 firmly and enthusiastically
00:03:15.000 on Team Trump
00:03:16.260 and urging other Republicans
00:03:18.300 and right-leaning independents
00:03:20.060 to do the same.
00:03:21.500 Among them,
00:03:22.220 former South Carolina governor
00:03:23.360 and UN ambassador Nikki Haley
00:03:24.940 and current Florida governor,
00:03:26.760 Ron DeSantis.
00:03:27.780 While the GOP has come together
00:03:29.500 in the days since Mr. Trump was nearly killed,
00:03:32.200 the left just cannot help themselves.
00:03:34.900 They cannot let go of their venom
00:03:37.880 for the former president,
00:03:39.900 even as he's literally still wearing a bandage,
00:03:42.380 even just for a few days.
00:03:44.300 Listen to the insanity spewed
00:03:46.600 by tech journalist Kara Swisher
00:03:48.900 and NYU professor Scott Galloway
00:03:51.820 on their Pivot podcast yesterday.
00:03:55.420 People on both sides of the political spectrum
00:03:56.960 are sharing theories,
00:03:58.280 the false flag claiming the picture was staged.
00:04:01.540 He certainly was fast on his feet,
00:04:03.500 so to speak.
00:04:04.060 Yeah, it wasn't staged.
00:04:06.000 Wow.
00:04:06.380 There's ridiculous theories on both sides,
00:04:08.200 the worst on the right,
00:04:08.940 but I don't know if you heard,
00:04:09.900 but right before Melania
00:04:11.740 gave her public statement,
00:04:13.020 she was heard yelling into a phone,
00:04:14.900 you had one job.
00:04:17.200 Too soon?
00:04:18.560 Too soon?
00:04:19.340 I like a joke.
00:04:20.380 My favorite joke was from someone
00:04:21.780 where they said,
00:04:22.700 let's hope it's not a time traveler
00:04:24.980 from the future who can't shoot.
00:04:27.220 It was something like that.
00:04:28.160 Anyway.
00:04:28.740 Oh, no.
00:04:29.380 The truth is,
00:04:30.540 I mean,
00:04:31.000 probably the most likely conspiracy theory
00:04:33.020 is the Democratic,
00:04:34.060 party ordered a hit,
00:04:36.000 but they used Timu for it.
00:04:37.660 They used Timu,
00:04:38.660 and it just didn't.
00:04:39.840 Oh, God.
00:04:40.920 All right, we'll stop with the jokes.
00:04:44.060 So funny that our former president
00:04:45.840 and the GOP nominee for president
00:04:47.780 almost got killed.
00:04:48.960 Such a topic full of levity.
00:04:52.620 And then there's the media reaction
00:04:53.940 to Trump supporters,
00:04:54.880 the so-called everyday Americans,
00:04:56.920 who stole the show last night
00:04:58.880 as they detailed truly moving
00:05:01.180 and at times very painful stories
00:05:03.440 of loved ones who were killed.
00:05:04.480 You looked at the audience reaction
00:05:05.880 and you saw delegates out there,
00:05:07.380 men and women,
00:05:08.720 openly crying.
00:05:09.740 And if you have a heart,
00:05:11.220 you felt it too.
00:05:11.880 So apparently that's not how they felt
00:05:15.080 over at MSNBC
00:05:17.100 and in the mainstream media
00:05:18.740 because, of course,
00:05:20.100 we channel surf to see
00:05:21.100 what they were saying
00:05:21.960 about these moments.
00:05:23.280 And apparently MSNBC did not feel
00:05:24.940 like any of this was worth
00:05:25.880 their precious airtime.
00:05:27.260 Among them,
00:05:28.520 among those that they ignored,
00:05:29.840 New York mother Madeline Brame.
00:05:32.640 This woman lit up the stage.
00:05:35.260 Her son, Sergeant Hassan Korea,
00:05:37.440 was an Afghanistan war vet
00:05:39.060 and married father of three.
00:05:41.320 In 2018, he was beaten
00:05:42.980 and stabbed in the heart
00:05:44.500 back home by a gang of people
00:05:47.580 he did not know.
00:05:48.640 She raised this point.
00:05:49.780 He survived service overseas.
00:05:51.220 He came home,
00:05:51.740 got killed in Harlem.
00:05:53.220 Two of his four attackers
00:05:54.300 were later given sweetheart plea deals
00:05:56.420 by none other than Manhattan DA
00:05:58.000 Alvin Bragg.
00:05:59.720 Watch.
00:06:01.480 He received enemy fire
00:06:03.540 from the Taliban
00:06:04.880 only to be murdered with a knife
00:06:08.000 on the streets of New York City.
00:06:11.760 The four assailants responsible
00:06:14.200 for his death
00:06:16.020 initially were facing justice.
00:06:20.300 But that changed
00:06:21.340 when District Attorney Alvin Bragg
00:06:25.120 was elected.
00:06:27.840 Suddenly,
00:06:29.520 two of the homicidal maniacs
00:06:32.880 responsible for my son's death
00:06:35.760 had their gang assault
00:06:37.640 and murder charges
00:06:39.340 completely dismissed.
00:06:42.260 And we need accountability
00:06:44.500 for prosecutors
00:06:46.380 who failed in their duty.
00:06:49.260 The Democratic Party
00:06:51.340 that poor minorities
00:06:53.600 have been loyal to
00:06:55.720 for decades,
00:06:57.200 including myself,
00:06:58.940 all right?
00:06:59.320 they betrayed us.
00:07:03.080 They stabbed us
00:07:04.040 in the back.
00:07:06.160 But my eyes
00:07:07.820 have been opened.
00:07:09.380 Donald Trump shares
00:07:10.580 our values.
00:07:11.820 He's been a victim
00:07:13.160 of the same corrupt system
00:07:15.620 that I have been
00:07:19.020 and my family has been.
00:07:21.200 Trump was right
00:07:22.480 when he said,
00:07:23.740 they're after us.
00:07:25.520 He's just standing
00:07:26.780 in the way.
00:07:31.220 Wow.
00:07:32.160 I've got chills
00:07:32.580 just listening to her again
00:07:33.600 and I've already heard it.
00:07:35.440 What was MSNBC doing
00:07:36.940 during her story?
00:07:38.300 Rachel Maddow,
00:07:38.940 Chris Hayes,
00:07:39.460 Stephanie Ruhle,
00:07:40.040 and Joy Reid
00:07:40.600 were at the desk
00:07:41.420 and went to commercial break.
00:07:43.860 When they came back,
00:07:45.340 there was no mention
00:07:46.540 of what was said
00:07:47.840 despite the huge reaction
00:07:49.760 from the crowd.
00:07:51.080 In fact,
00:07:51.500 Rachel Maddow
00:07:51.980 proceeded to talk about
00:07:52.980 anti-Republican protesters
00:07:54.540 who are outside
00:07:55.780 the convention.
00:07:56.800 You see,
00:07:57.120 Black Lives Matter
00:07:58.000 unless they are lost
00:07:59.620 at the hands
00:08:00.440 of a criminal
00:08:01.360 who then gets let off
00:08:02.880 by Alvin Bragg,
00:08:03.760 in which case,
00:08:04.320 we don't care.
00:08:05.000 We don't care about that man.
00:08:06.160 We don't care about
00:08:06.660 his grieving mom.
00:08:07.720 We move on to commercial.
00:08:09.380 And then there was the story
00:08:10.440 of Rachel Marin,
00:08:12.260 a mother of five
00:08:13.080 who was raped and killed
00:08:14.300 by a suspected illegal immigrant
00:08:16.120 with a very violent history.
00:08:18.860 Her brother spoke about her death
00:08:20.280 and laid into
00:08:21.060 the Biden administration's
00:08:22.180 border policy.
00:08:22.860 Open borders
00:08:25.180 are often portrayed
00:08:27.160 as compassionate
00:08:29.100 and virtuous.
00:08:31.180 But there is nothing
00:08:32.420 compassionate
00:08:33.220 about allowing
00:08:35.580 violent criminals
00:08:36.620 into our country
00:08:39.460 and robbing children
00:08:41.480 of their mother.
00:08:43.680 Joe Biden
00:08:44.400 and his designated border czar,
00:08:48.740 Kamala Harris,
00:08:50.680 opened our borders to him.
00:08:52.240 and others like him,
00:08:55.680 empowering them
00:08:56.580 to victimize the innocent.
00:08:59.140 Yet,
00:09:00.420 to this day,
00:09:01.980 we have not heard
00:09:03.400 from Joe Biden
00:09:04.320 or Kamala Harris.
00:09:06.560 Hmm.
00:09:08.120 What was happening
00:09:09.160 on MSNBC at the time?
00:09:10.940 Chris Hayes
00:09:11.520 was expressing
00:09:12.480 how upset he was
00:09:13.840 because these people
00:09:15.000 who were speaking
00:09:15.980 are called
00:09:16.980 everyday Americans.
00:09:18.140 I just want to note
00:09:20.660 that when it was coined
00:09:22.460 everyday American
00:09:23.480 rubbed me the wrong way
00:09:24.420 but it seems to have
00:09:25.080 taken off.
00:09:25.620 Just want to note
00:09:26.140 that everyday American,
00:09:27.260 which is the title
00:09:28.260 for the individual
00:09:29.080 speaking right now,
00:09:30.060 has seemed to work.
00:09:31.680 I didn't think
00:09:32.360 that had legs
00:09:32.900 but it has.
00:09:35.580 Inhuman.
00:09:37.700 Heaven forbid
00:09:38.300 MSNBC give any airtime
00:09:39.960 to people whose loved ones
00:09:41.000 died,
00:09:41.680 especially if they had
00:09:42.640 any criticism
00:09:43.780 for democratic policies.

00:10:42.620 Joining me now,
00:10:43.540 one of the stars
00:10:44.140 of last night
00:10:44.740 alongside the
00:10:45.540 Everyday Americans,
00:10:46.400 and that was
00:10:46.640 Congresswoman Elise Stefanik
00:10:48.320 of New York's
00:10:49.040 21st Congressional District.
00:10:50.380 She is chair
00:10:51.180 of the House
00:10:52.020 Republican Conference.
00:10:53.280 Congresswoman,
00:10:53.800 great to have you here.
00:10:54.680 Thanks for being here.
00:10:55.500 Great to be with you, Megan.
00:10:56.740 Can you believe
00:10:57.660 that is the reaction
00:10:59.060 to those testimonials
00:11:00.240 we heard?
00:11:00.820 No, it's unbelievable.
00:11:02.180 And these are
00:11:02.720 Everyday Americans,
00:11:03.520 and they're feeling
00:11:04.240 the impact of Joe Biden's
00:11:05.720 catastrophic leadership.
00:11:07.320 It was powerful.
00:11:08.400 The American people
00:11:09.080 are watching,
00:11:09.880 and that's why
00:11:10.460 you're seeing
00:11:10.940 a growing Republican Party,
00:11:12.900 and the unified support,
00:11:14.060 not just among
00:11:14.640 registered Republican, Megan,
00:11:16.200 but registered Democrats.
00:11:17.880 President Trump,
00:11:18.540 look at New York State.
00:11:19.540 He is winning
00:11:20.140 every single swing district
00:11:21.600 in New York State.
00:11:22.380 He is within single digits.
00:11:23.600 Historic support
00:11:24.300 among Hispanic voters,
00:11:25.740 African American voters,
00:11:27.180 young voters.
00:11:28.500 And the Democrats,
00:11:29.500 what do they have?
00:11:30.240 They attack
00:11:31.060 these Everyday Americans.
00:11:32.300 It's disgraceful.
00:11:33.400 It's why people
00:11:34.160 no longer have faith
00:11:35.280 in the mainstream media.
00:11:36.460 That's why your show
00:11:37.180 continues to grow,
00:11:38.280 because people want
00:11:39.200 to hear the real stories
00:11:40.160 of how these policies
00:11:41.220 are impacting their lives.
00:11:42.620 God bless these
00:11:43.600 Everyday Americans
00:11:44.340 for speaking out.
00:11:45.800 It is not easy
00:11:46.600 to get up and speak
00:11:47.560 in front of a convention floor
00:11:48.840 with tens of thousands
00:11:49.980 of people,
00:11:50.700 but they feel so strongly
00:11:52.160 about their family stories.
00:11:53.480 I am proud of them,
00:11:54.760 and I know as a member
00:11:55.520 of Congress,
00:11:56.000 it's my responsibility
00:11:56.760 to represent the people
00:11:58.320 in my district
00:11:59.000 every single day.
00:12:00.320 Yeah, exactly.
00:12:01.160 I mean, we heard that mom,
00:12:03.140 she's from New York,
00:12:04.020 not your district,
00:12:04.780 but she's from New York State,
00:12:05.780 and I'm from New York State,
00:12:06.700 50 years.
00:12:07.240 Now I'm in Connecticut.
00:12:08.420 You know why?
00:12:08.860 The crazy schools.
00:12:10.660 But this is a massive problem,
00:12:12.640 and the nerve for the media
00:12:14.320 to turn away,
00:12:15.080 they turn away every time
00:12:16.160 it comes on,
00:12:16.700 and that's why Democrats
00:12:17.760 continue to feel
00:12:18.940 it's not a problem.
00:12:20.220 You know, it's humane
00:12:21.220 to have an open border.
00:12:22.920 You know, we've been
00:12:23.620 too tough on criminals.
00:12:25.020 We need to go
00:12:25.900 the opposite direction,
00:12:26.980 because they're not
00:12:27.980 being told these stories,
00:12:29.260 and when they pop up,
00:12:30.440 they get ignored.
00:12:31.140 It's infuriating.
00:12:31.880 And what they do is,
00:12:32.820 the Democrats attack
00:12:33.720 the victims.
00:12:34.320 I've been in committee hearings
00:12:35.680 when we have victims
00:12:36.740 of heinous crimes testifying.
00:12:39.140 You have mothers
00:12:39.880 who have lost
00:12:40.480 their adult children.
00:12:41.540 You have spouses
00:12:42.220 who are sharing
00:12:42.960 their very heartfelt,
00:12:44.800 tearful stories,
00:12:45.820 and Democrat members
00:12:46.480 of Congress,
00:12:47.100 led by Joe Biden
00:12:48.000 at the top of the
00:12:48.580 Democrat Party,
00:12:49.460 attack the victims.
00:12:50.460 So they're not just
00:12:51.300 pro-criminal.
00:12:52.240 They're becoming
00:12:52.760 anti-victim, anti-American,
00:12:55.260 and those stories show
00:12:56.440 every state in the country
00:12:57.540 is a border state.
00:12:58.700 The crime scourge
00:12:59.780 and crime crisis,
00:13:00.900 it's not just in big cities,
00:13:02.200 Megan.
00:13:02.360 We see it in upstate New York.
00:13:04.080 We had a bank robbery
00:13:04.920 over the past two years
00:13:05.780 in Glens Falls, New York,
00:13:06.920 a small city in upstate
00:13:08.540 in the north country
00:13:09.280 known as Hometown USA.
00:13:10.520 We've had smash and grabs
00:13:11.860 in Saratoga Springs.
00:13:13.480 These are cities
00:13:14.020 where we did not
00:13:14.740 have crime issues.
00:13:15.540 We are now,
00:13:16.260 because of the failed policies
00:13:17.580 of the defund the police
00:13:19.140 Democrat Party today.
00:13:21.060 The reason all these folks
00:13:22.280 were there last night
00:13:22.920 is because the theme
00:13:23.540 of the evening
00:13:23.980 was make America safe again,
00:13:25.640 and they were speaking
00:13:26.580 about some of the problems
00:13:27.420 that we need to address
00:13:28.120 to do that.
00:13:29.120 They also,
00:13:30.020 on the theme of unity,
00:13:31.180 had,
00:13:31.460 as I mentioned,
00:13:32.840 Nikki Haley was there,
00:13:33.800 Ron DeSantis was there,
00:13:34.960 and unlike,
00:13:37.200 I think it was Ted Cruz
00:13:38.720 in 16 with Trump
00:13:40.040 who said,
00:13:40.420 and I like Ted,
00:13:41.300 but vote your conscience
00:13:42.520 or however he said it,
00:13:43.240 it was not a ringing
00:13:44.000 endorsement of Trump.
00:13:44.920 They had fought tooth and nail.
00:13:46.280 They're good now.
00:13:47.420 And he spoke,
00:13:48.860 was it last night?
00:13:49.560 I watched him.
00:13:49.920 He did speak.
00:13:50.300 Yeah,
00:13:50.440 it was last night.
00:13:50.900 He did a great job.
00:13:51.920 But anyway,
00:13:53.180 Nikki Haley came out
00:13:54.120 and she did not half-ass it.
00:13:55.620 She said,
00:13:56.340 strong endorsement.
00:13:57.660 Here's a bit.
00:13:58.200 I'll start
00:14:00.980 by making one thing
00:14:02.460 perfectly clear.
00:14:05.460 Donald Trump
00:14:06.900 has my strong endorsement,
00:14:10.000 period.
00:14:10.380 We should acknowledge
00:14:24.340 that there are some Americans
00:14:26.820 who don't agree with Donald Trump
00:14:29.080 100% of the time.
00:14:31.740 I happen to know some of them.
00:14:34.260 And I want to speak
00:14:37.840 to them tonight.
00:14:39.620 My message to them
00:14:41.180 is simple.
00:14:42.960 You don't have to agree
00:14:44.500 with Trump 100% of the time
00:14:46.680 to vote for him.
00:14:48.600 I'm here tonight
00:14:49.840 because we have
00:14:51.240 a country to save.
00:14:53.740 I thought that was
00:14:54.560 a very important moment
00:14:55.440 for Trump in this election.
00:14:56.920 What did you think?
00:14:57.520 I thought it was
00:14:58.000 an important moment.
00:14:58.820 I thought this unity,
00:15:00.400 this excitement,
00:15:01.400 it's historic.
00:15:02.260 And I've been a part
00:15:02.800 of many conventions
00:15:03.540 over the years.
00:15:04.100 I've never felt
00:15:05.180 a Republican Party
00:15:06.320 more unified.
00:15:07.380 And I think the fact
00:15:08.100 that Nikki Haley,
00:15:09.360 Rhonda Stantis,
00:15:10.580 Ted Cruz,
00:15:11.260 you know,
00:15:11.480 potential challengers
00:15:12.500 of President Trump
00:15:13.140 in the past,
00:15:13.900 both in 2016 and 2024,
00:15:16.800 stepped up and talked
00:15:17.780 about the stakes
00:15:18.380 of this election.
00:15:19.480 And she was spot on.
00:15:20.720 The state of our country,
00:15:21.720 we need to save our country.
00:15:23.000 And we know
00:15:23.560 that President Trump
00:15:24.440 is going to fire Joe Biden
00:15:26.040 with the support
00:15:26.820 of the American people
00:15:27.480 and save our country,
00:15:28.460 who we are
00:15:29.020 as a very nation.
00:15:30.020 If they can put
00:15:30.660 the differences they had
00:15:32.000 in the, you know,
00:15:32.860 primary campaign
00:15:34.280 behind them,
00:15:35.320 she's basically
00:15:35.820 telegraphing to her supporters,
00:15:37.080 so can you.
00:15:37.800 You know,
00:15:38.080 we have a country to save.
00:15:39.080 The stakes are too high
00:15:40.340 to not get this one right.
00:15:41.980 Ron DeSantis came out
00:15:43.020 with, you know,
00:15:43.720 a very strong message
00:15:44.600 on DEI
00:15:45.440 and the Democrats'
00:15:46.260 policies when it comes
00:15:46.980 to that stuff
00:15:47.460 and also said the following.
00:15:48.860 Watch.
00:15:50.700 They stand for DEI,
00:15:53.820 which really means
00:15:54.940 division, exclusion,
00:15:57.160 and indoctrination,
00:15:58.180 and it is wrong.
00:16:06.520 They mandated
00:16:07.880 that you show proof
00:16:09.440 of a COVID vaccine
00:16:10.900 to go to a restaurant,
00:16:12.920 but they oppose
00:16:14.040 requiring proof
00:16:15.260 of citizenship
00:16:16.080 to cast the vote.
00:16:22.780 They can't even define
00:16:24.960 what a woman is.
00:16:28.820 Now, Donald Trump
00:16:30.360 stands in their way
00:16:31.660 and he stands up
00:16:32.720 for America.
00:16:34.220 Donald Trump
00:16:35.040 has been demonized,
00:16:36.580 he's been sued,
00:16:37.640 he's been prosecuted,
00:16:39.360 and he nearly lost his life.
00:16:41.440 We cannot let him down,
00:16:43.500 and we cannot let America down.
00:16:52.000 For the listening audience,
00:16:53.280 Trump is sitting there,
00:16:54.000 he's listening,
00:16:54.420 he's smiling,
00:16:55.180 and he went on as well
00:16:56.980 to say that
00:16:58.840 we can't have,
00:17:00.100 America not afford
00:17:01.300 four more years
00:17:02.620 of another,
00:17:03.160 of a weekend
00:17:03.760 at Bernie's presidency,
00:17:05.380 which, let's face it,
00:17:06.460 many of us have used
00:17:07.200 that line.
00:17:07.820 I know it's not nice,
00:17:09.220 it's not polite,
00:17:09.680 but the point is
00:17:10.780 we don't feel
00:17:11.780 he's running the show,
00:17:13.260 that Joe Biden's running the show.
00:17:14.140 And the American people
00:17:15.180 understand exactly
00:17:16.220 what that line means
00:17:17.220 because it's what we see
00:17:18.280 every single day.
00:17:18.980 It's what the mainstream media
00:17:20.120 has tried to cover up.
00:17:21.580 It's what the entire
00:17:22.380 Democrat ecosystem
00:17:23.220 has tried to cover up
00:17:24.200 for two years.
00:17:24.760 Remember,
00:17:25.100 any Republican,
00:17:26.200 because I was one of them
00:17:26.960 that spoke out
00:17:27.600 and said Joe Biden
00:17:28.360 is unfit for the presidency,
00:17:30.300 is unfit to be
00:17:30.960 commander-in-chief,
00:17:31.920 we were smeared,
00:17:33.420 saying we're lying,
00:17:34.580 conspiracy theorists.
00:17:35.540 It is the truth.
00:17:36.540 And after the debate,
00:17:37.540 50 million Americans
00:17:38.500 saw that in a crisp way.
00:17:40.280 And what's so concerning
00:17:41.000 is the rest of the world
00:17:41.920 saw that as well.
00:17:42.740 But I want to go back
00:17:43.620 to the Ron DeSantis clip.
00:17:45.020 I'm glad you played that clip.
00:17:46.040 I was sitting in
00:17:46.880 the president's box
00:17:47.760 with President Trump
00:17:48.640 during that speech.
00:17:50.020 And that exact line,
00:17:51.280 that DEI is division,
00:17:53.320 exclusion,
00:17:53.900 and indoctrination,
00:17:55.100 I remember thinking to myself,
00:17:56.440 that is a great line,
00:17:57.220 that is exactly what it is.
00:17:58.640 This is exactly what
00:17:59.640 the agenda of the left is.
00:18:01.520 And that has to do
00:18:02.200 with a lot of work
00:18:02.820 that I've been doing
00:18:03.340 on college campuses,
00:18:04.360 where the root of DEI
00:18:06.880 is very much a part
00:18:08.040 of this root of anti-Semitism,
00:18:09.860 dividing, indoctrinating,
00:18:11.820 and it's morally bankrupt.
00:18:13.240 So I thought Ron did a great job
00:18:15.080 and it just was a unifying moment
00:18:16.720 and I was so proud
00:18:17.520 to sit there with President Trump.
00:18:19.180 Yes.
00:18:19.720 So the DEI,
00:18:20.420 I mean, like you've been
00:18:21.080 such a great fighter on this.
00:18:22.580 And when we saw you
00:18:23.780 cross-examine those,
00:18:26.400 as you put it last night,
00:18:27.660 now former college presidents,
00:18:29.880 it was a thing of beauty.
00:18:32.000 Instead, I want to show them,
00:18:33.420 let's just take a quick walk
00:18:34.660 down memory lane
00:18:35.460 with Elise Stefanik
00:18:36.940 and the presidents at the time
00:18:39.260 of Harvard, Stanford,
00:18:41.560 and what was the other one?
00:18:42.360 Harvard, MIT, and Penn.
00:18:43.720 Okay.
00:18:43.980 Then we had Columbia later.
00:18:44.860 Columbia came later.
00:18:45.440 Okay, watch.
00:18:45.880 Dr. Kornbluth,
00:18:49.420 at MIT,
00:18:50.980 does calling for the genocide
00:18:52.160 of Jews violate MIT's
00:18:54.860 code of conduct
00:18:56.080 or rules regarding
00:18:57.160 bullying and harassment,
00:18:58.320 yes or no?
00:18:59.240 We've targeted at individuals
00:19:00.520 not making public statements.
00:19:03.760 Yes or no?
00:19:04.920 Calling for the genocide of Jews
00:19:06.600 does not constitute
00:19:07.700 bullying and harassment?
00:19:08.800 I have not heard
00:19:09.900 calling for the genocide
00:19:11.100 for Jews on our campus.
00:19:12.300 But you've heard chants
00:19:13.080 for intifada.
00:19:14.880 I've heard chants,
00:19:16.340 which can be anti-Semitic
00:19:18.200 depending on the context,
00:19:19.440 when calling for the elimination
00:19:20.820 of the Jewish people.
00:19:22.120 Specifically calling
00:19:23.120 for the genocide of Jews,
00:19:24.800 does that constitute
00:19:26.320 bullying or harassment?
00:19:29.320 If it is directed
00:19:30.940 and severe or pervasive,
00:19:32.220 it is harassment.
00:19:33.460 So the answer is yes.
00:19:35.440 It is a context-dependent decision.
00:19:37.520 So the answer is yes,
00:19:39.320 that calling for the genocide
00:19:41.080 of Jews violates
00:19:43.020 Harvard's code of conduct.
00:19:44.380 Correct.
00:19:46.900 Again, it depends on the context.
00:19:49.300 It does not depend
00:19:50.280 on the context.
00:19:51.380 The answer is yes,
00:19:52.680 and this is why
00:19:53.480 you should resign.
00:19:54.600 These are unacceptable answers
00:19:56.020 across the board.
00:19:58.080 That was so powerful.
00:20:00.440 We were all cheering you
00:20:02.200 at these heartless people
00:20:04.240 who showed up there
00:20:05.260 like it was some sort
00:20:06.240 of advanced physics exam
00:20:07.620 instead of calling for
00:20:09.240 mass genocide
00:20:10.100 of the Jewish people.
00:20:11.400 So can I just ask you,
00:20:12.220 like, what's in your background?
00:20:14.260 Like, did you start off
00:20:15.240 as a prosecutor?
00:20:15.900 Forgive me, I should know this.
00:20:17.240 I'm not a lawyer.
00:20:18.200 You look like a lawyer.
00:20:19.260 I went to Harvard Underground.
00:20:20.380 I'm not a lawyer.
00:20:21.160 I've been in Congress
00:20:21.920 for 10 years,
00:20:22.700 and what's interesting
00:20:23.280 about that question, Megan,
00:20:24.460 is it was the last question
00:20:26.020 of the hearing.
00:20:26.680 It was the most junior member
00:20:27.740 who yielded me
00:20:28.460 the last three minutes.
00:20:29.420 I hadn't prepared that question.
00:20:30.780 What?
00:20:30.880 I thought, how can I ask them
00:20:32.640 in a straightforward moral way
00:20:33.860 to box them in
00:20:34.740 to answer it correctly?
00:20:36.160 And my follow-up
00:20:36.960 was going to be
00:20:37.500 what disciplinary action
00:20:38.620 has been taken
00:20:39.320 against students
00:20:39.980 who have violated
00:20:40.680 the code of conduct.
00:20:41.740 So I wrote it down in pencil
00:20:42.960 literally two minutes beforehand.
00:20:45.080 Started with MIT thinking
00:20:46.280 this is a technical school.
00:20:47.500 They're not as far gone
00:20:48.460 as Harvard and Penn.
00:20:49.820 And then it was shocking
00:20:50.680 to me real time
00:20:51.680 that they said basically verbatim,
00:20:54.340 it depends on the context.
00:20:56.120 And the interesting thing
00:20:57.560 about the hearing was
00:20:58.540 there was no media in there.
00:20:59.580 That's the C-SPAN clip.
00:21:01.200 And they stood up.
00:21:02.700 They left.
00:21:03.220 It was the last question.
00:21:04.100 They didn't think
00:21:04.540 there was anything wrong.
00:21:05.440 And then in a week,
00:21:06.540 a billion people saw that
00:21:08.220 because of the moral bankruptcy
00:21:09.380 of their answers,
00:21:10.240 it is now the most viewed testimony
00:21:12.020 in the history
00:21:12.760 of the United States Congress.
00:21:13.800 Oh, wow.
00:21:14.240 More than Watergate,
00:21:15.060 more than any other
00:21:15.900 congressional hearing
00:21:16.800 because, again,
00:21:19.080 they're so out of touch
00:21:20.500 with everyday Americans.
00:21:22.600 You put up three constituents
00:21:23.760 in my district,
00:21:24.860 a farmer,
00:21:25.580 a suburban mom,
00:21:26.620 a manufacturing worker,
00:21:27.840 they know how to answer
00:21:28.620 the question.
00:21:29.400 It is a disgrace
00:21:30.280 that the presidents
00:21:31.060 of our so-called elite universities,
00:21:32.920 one of which is my alma mater,
00:21:34.180 or I graduated from Harvard
00:21:35.400 as the first member
00:21:36.140 of my immediate family
00:21:36.740 to have that opportunity.
00:21:37.920 It was not like that
00:21:38.860 when I was there 20 years ago.
00:21:40.640 So it took 48 hours
00:21:42.160 for the Penn president
00:21:42.920 to be forced out.
00:21:43.820 It took a month
00:21:44.360 for the Harvard president
00:21:45.140 to be forced out.
00:21:46.100 The MIT president
00:21:46.880 is clinging on.
00:21:48.100 We have since seen
00:21:48.740 the Columbia president's
00:21:49.820 catastrophic testimony as well.
00:21:52.900 And this is pervasive
00:21:53.940 in higher ed.
00:21:54.780 We have worked
00:21:55.820 on this investigation.
00:21:56.780 If you think the hearing
00:21:57.560 was bad, Megan,
00:21:58.580 we're going to have to talk
00:21:59.640 about all the documents
00:22:00.680 that have been turned over
00:22:01.540 because of our subpoena.
00:22:02.640 We'll put out a report
00:22:03.560 later this year.
00:22:04.520 That's even more
00:22:05.360 bombshell material in there.
00:22:07.080 It's a disgrace
00:22:07.800 what's happening
00:22:08.340 at these universities.
00:22:09.980 The sad part is,
00:22:11.580 among many sad parts of this,
00:22:13.260 is it's not just the top,
00:22:14.940 the presidents.
00:22:15.660 It goes deep.
00:22:16.840 It's these offices of DEI.
00:22:18.760 It's the administrators.
00:22:20.180 It's 95% of the tenured faculty
00:22:22.340 who supported the presidents
00:22:23.840 and didn't speak out
00:22:25.160 on behalf of what's morally correct,
00:22:27.260 that you condemn
00:22:28.020 calling for the genocide of Jews,
00:22:29.500 and it violates
00:22:30.280 the code of conduct.
00:22:31.120 Can I tell you something?
00:22:31.940 These are the same people
00:22:32.720 who lecture us every other day
00:22:33.780 about empathy.
00:22:35.060 You know, we really just need
00:22:35.920 to be more empathetic,
00:22:36.880 and what they mean by that
00:22:37.760 is we need to support DEI.
00:22:39.140 We need to promote
00:22:39.960 or dismiss people
00:22:40.920 based on the color of their skin,
00:22:42.260 based on their gender,
00:22:43.700 based on their sexual preferences.
00:22:44.920 That's what's empathetic,
00:22:46.340 no matter who gets screwed
00:22:47.600 as a result of these insane policies.
00:22:50.220 And in that same category
00:22:51.720 would be Kara Swisher.
00:22:53.720 And I like Scott Galloway.
00:22:55.820 I'm shocked to hear him
00:22:56.740 talk like this with her.
00:22:57.740 I know it was a joke.
00:22:58.880 It's inappropriate.
00:22:59.680 A man was killed,
00:23:02.520 two people are still
00:23:03.180 fighting for their lives,
00:23:04.120 and President Trump
00:23:04.940 dodged a bullet
00:23:06.060 within an inch of his life
00:23:07.120 and was grazed by it.
00:23:08.420 I hadn't heard that
00:23:09.540 until you played it
00:23:10.420 at the start of this show,
00:23:11.580 and I was appalled
00:23:12.340 listening to it.
00:23:13.360 I cannot believe
00:23:14.400 that these are media personalities
00:23:16.420 who are spewing this hate,
00:23:18.480 who are essentially
00:23:19.760 making light
00:23:20.740 of an assassination attempt.
00:23:22.300 And you're right,
00:23:22.740 a 50-year-old
00:23:23.640 former fire chief
00:23:25.420 who is a dad,
00:23:26.700 a husband,
00:23:27.340 who died
00:23:28.140 as a result of this assassin.
00:23:29.880 So it is a disgrace
00:23:31.060 what the media is doing.
00:23:32.100 They have fueled this hate
00:23:33.540 towards President Trump,
00:23:35.020 but it's really a hate
00:23:36.240 of Americans
00:23:37.060 who support President Trump,
00:23:38.460 which is a diverse group
00:23:39.460 of Americans.
00:23:40.560 It is a disgrace,
00:23:41.760 and this is about unity.
00:23:43.200 This is about saving
00:23:44.000 who we are as America.
00:23:45.320 So this is an exciting,
00:23:46.660 historic moment
00:23:47.360 at this convention.
00:23:48.460 You see a stark contrast
00:23:49.520 with the hate on the left
00:23:50.740 versus the unity
00:23:51.820 that we have
00:23:52.460 in the Republican Party.
00:23:53.480 You can't be empathetic
00:23:54.340 after the man gets shot at,
00:23:56.680 right?
00:23:57.400 The ear,
00:23:58.640 a man is dead.
00:23:59.500 You can't be empathetic,
00:24:01.000 period.
00:24:01.460 Like, don't ask me
00:24:02.420 for empathy
00:24:03.300 when I don't favor
00:24:04.440 quotas in hiring,
00:24:05.940 and yet I can see
00:24:07.520 the man's humanity
00:24:08.340 and you cannot.
00:24:09.460 She said in that clip
00:24:10.680 we played in the intro,
00:24:11.860 he was awfully fast
00:24:12.780 on his feet,
00:24:13.460 about President Trump.
00:24:16.420 Like, that's unbelievable.
00:24:18.140 I talked with a Secret Service
00:24:19.080 agent just the other day
00:24:19.940 who we talked about
00:24:20.600 how they do train them
00:24:21.480 to go down
00:24:22.220 and that he was being
00:24:23.000 yelled at by the Secret Service,
00:24:24.200 get down,
00:24:24.840 and that they'd train them.
00:24:26.000 There's armor
00:24:26.520 behind those lecterns.
00:24:28.320 So it's,
00:24:29.220 that's what you do,
00:24:30.000 right,
00:24:30.200 to save your life.
00:24:31.340 She thinks it's suspicious
00:24:32.500 and she's not the only one.
00:24:34.720 There's plenty of crackpots
00:24:35.900 out there I could bring
00:24:36.780 before you and say,
00:24:37.580 look at this nutcase.
00:24:38.980 Michael Steele.
00:24:40.540 Michael Steele,
00:24:42.060 the former head
00:24:42.860 of the RNC.
00:24:43.960 He's now one of those
00:24:44.880 never Trump Republicans
00:24:46.180 or maybe he's one of those
00:24:47.080 never more Republicans.
00:24:49.880 Listen to him.
00:24:50.780 It's been three days
00:24:53.220 going on four
00:24:54.000 since this horrific event
00:24:55.980 occurred.
00:24:56.740 A person lost their life
00:24:57.860 to have been severely injured.
00:24:59.560 And yet we've not received
00:25:00.740 a medical report
00:25:01.620 from the hospital
00:25:02.320 nor have we received
00:25:03.160 a medical report
00:25:03.920 from the campaign
00:25:04.780 or from the Trump organization
00:25:06.800 about the extent
00:25:07.780 of the damage
00:25:08.860 to his ear.
00:25:09.840 If he was shot
00:25:10.860 by a high caliber bullet,
00:25:12.480 there's probably be
00:25:14.140 very little ear there.
00:25:15.260 And so we'd like
00:25:17.200 to know that.
00:25:17.920 Is there cosmetic
00:25:18.600 surgery involved?
00:25:20.200 What is the prognosis
00:25:22.160 for recovery?
00:25:23.080 Were there stitches?
00:25:24.440 What is the extent
00:25:25.600 and nature
00:25:26.180 of the damage
00:25:26.960 to his ear?
00:25:27.880 Was it caused
00:25:28.680 by a bullet
00:25:29.240 as opposed
00:25:30.000 to some reports
00:25:31.180 from those on the scene,
00:25:33.340 other reporters,
00:25:34.380 saying that it was
00:25:35.640 actually shards
00:25:37.160 of glass
00:25:37.800 from the teleprompter
00:25:39.440 itself,
00:25:39.960 not the bullet.
00:25:41.340 So there are
00:25:41.920 a lot of questions
00:25:42.840 around that ear.
00:25:43.780 Michael Steele
00:25:44.500 is correct.
00:25:45.320 While there is
00:25:45.740 a certain amount
00:25:46.300 of time
00:25:46.880 that could be
00:25:47.600 understandable
00:25:48.100 for any medical scenario,
00:25:49.960 the calls around
00:25:50.880 the current president's
00:25:51.800 medical condition,
00:25:52.680 the questions
00:25:53.080 around his capacity,
00:25:54.280 right,
00:25:54.600 are also the same
00:25:55.860 questions you have
00:25:56.680 in a medical event
00:25:57.860 like this.
00:25:59.140 Certainly the public
00:25:59.840 would want to know
00:26:00.460 as much as possible
00:26:01.240 about both incidents
00:26:02.800 and the Trump campaign
00:26:03.860 has not been
00:26:04.500 the most transparent.
00:26:06.580 So I think
00:26:06.860 getting medical records
00:26:07.900 and briefing on that
00:26:09.220 at some point
00:26:10.300 would be appropriate.
00:26:11.420 That's what journalists
00:26:12.020 often ask.
00:26:12.580 I don't watch
00:26:14.940 MSDNC.
00:26:16.080 You shouldn't.
00:26:16.320 So I'm seeing
00:26:17.820 these clips
00:26:18.460 for the first time.
00:26:20.120 This is appalling.
00:26:21.320 The questions I have
00:26:22.240 is how has this
00:26:23.300 security lapse
00:26:24.000 even happened?
00:26:24.720 We need to get
00:26:25.180 an answer to that.
00:26:26.220 How is this assassin
00:26:27.160 able to get on the roof
00:26:28.140 in being able
00:26:29.640 to take a clean shot
00:26:30.880 at the president
00:26:31.380 of the United States?
00:26:32.160 Those are the questions
00:26:32.860 we are asking
00:26:33.460 to make sure
00:26:33.980 this never happens again
00:26:35.340 to any president
00:26:36.300 and just make sure
00:26:37.780 of any party
00:26:38.680 you need to stand up
00:26:39.740 for the safety
00:26:40.280 and security
00:26:40.780 of the president
00:26:41.800 no matter who it is.
00:26:42.740 It is a disgrace.
00:26:43.900 And yet the media
00:26:44.540 calls us conspiracy theorists.
00:26:46.580 That conspiracy theory
00:26:47.700 that I just heard spewed
00:26:48.800 is despicable
00:26:49.740 and it is tearing
00:26:51.080 this country apart.
00:26:52.400 We stand strongly
00:26:53.320 with President Trump.
00:26:54.160 The American people
00:26:54.980 understand that
00:26:55.920 he is a grandfather.
00:26:56.940 He is a father.
00:26:57.780 He is a former
00:26:58.320 president of the United States
00:26:59.120 and he's going to be
00:26:59.880 the next president
00:27:00.440 of the United States.
00:27:01.380 So that is a disgrace.
00:27:02.300 What we are focused on
00:27:03.240 as members of Congress
00:27:04.060 is asking those
00:27:05.160 very important questions
00:27:06.180 of the Secret Service,
00:27:07.480 making sure we get
00:27:08.100 all the information possible
00:27:09.300 as to how this possibly
00:27:10.540 that is starting.
00:27:11.500 OK, can you talk about that?
00:27:12.500 Because I think
00:27:12.960 a lot of us are shocked
00:27:13.740 that the head
00:27:14.280 of the Secret Service
00:27:14.820 has not tendered
00:27:15.560 her resignation.
00:27:16.640 She went on the record
00:27:17.620 and said the reason
00:27:18.860 we didn't have somebody
00:27:19.560 on that roof
00:27:20.300 where the shooter was
00:27:21.120 was it's sloped.
00:27:23.100 And so there's
00:27:23.520 a safety concern.
00:27:24.500 She's on camera saying it.
00:27:25.980 There's no question
00:27:26.500 she said it,
00:27:27.420 which had people
00:27:28.280 like Rob O'Neill
00:27:29.380 who shot Bin Laden
00:27:30.120 saying, you know,
00:27:30.720 sure glad the roof
00:27:31.680 there wasn't sloped.
00:27:32.940 You know, Bin Laden
00:27:33.400 still be.
00:27:33.800 It's absurd.
00:27:34.840 The two positions
00:27:35.540 from which the counter snipers
00:27:37.000 were firing
00:27:37.900 were sloped more so
00:27:39.520 than the roof
00:27:40.100 that the shooter was on.
00:27:41.360 So that doesn't make any sense.
00:27:42.740 It's an obvious lie
00:27:43.860 to cover up what was
00:27:45.180 at best for them
00:27:46.780 now gross negligence.
00:27:48.160 So why is she not fired?
00:27:50.180 And what do you think
00:27:51.100 we're going to learn
00:27:51.720 at these hearings?
00:27:52.780 Well, we will have
00:27:53.500 our first call
00:27:54.100 this afternoon.
00:27:54.740 We had an initial briefing
00:27:56.080 from the sergeant at arms
00:27:57.000 about the security posture here.
00:27:58.600 Today we'll have
00:27:59.200 the deputy director
00:27:59.940 of the FBI
00:28:00.560 as well as her deputy
00:28:01.900 of the Secret Service.
00:28:02.700 I don't anticipate
00:28:03.740 getting a lot of
00:28:04.780 transparent and fulsome answers,
00:28:07.080 but we will have
00:28:07.780 our first hearing next week
00:28:08.880 by the House Oversight Committee.
00:28:10.680 And what is really important
00:28:11.860 in these cases, Megan,
00:28:12.740 these agencies can't drag on
00:28:14.480 turning over documentation,
00:28:16.120 turning over the full truth.
00:28:17.100 We need 100% transparency
00:28:18.560 on the front.
00:28:19.460 We will not hesitate
00:28:20.160 to use our subpoena power
00:28:21.400 and hold these people accountable
00:28:23.040 so this never happens again.
00:28:24.900 I also want to get
00:28:25.680 to the bottom of
00:28:26.400 the fact that
00:28:27.380 President Trump's campaign
00:28:28.580 had requested
00:28:29.420 additional Secret Service requests
00:28:30.820 because of the heightened threats.
00:28:32.200 And he gets more threats
00:28:33.220 probably than anyone,
00:28:34.760 probably than anyone
00:28:35.800 in the world, Megan.
00:28:37.120 And I believe
00:28:37.980 that was denied.
00:28:38.840 I want to know
00:28:39.460 the answers to that question
00:28:40.680 and why that decision
00:28:41.540 was made.
00:28:42.300 And you know I...
00:28:42.940 The Secret Service spokesperson
00:28:43.480 says it wasn't denied,
00:28:44.860 but he's been a little cagey
00:28:46.140 in his language.
00:28:47.020 They always try to,
00:28:48.360 they answer it in a way
00:28:49.720 to try to protect and...
00:28:51.500 He gave resources.
00:28:52.900 Well, what does that mean?
00:28:53.660 He got new laptops?
00:28:55.260 That's why it's important
00:28:55.940 to ask the right questions.
00:28:57.020 And you know I do my oversight
00:28:58.200 like I did
00:28:58.660 for the university presidents.
00:28:59.720 We are going to do that
00:29:00.540 to make sure that we hold
00:29:01.520 these folks accountable again
00:29:02.760 so it doesn't happen again.
00:29:04.140 And so we have safety
00:29:05.060 and security
00:29:05.480 for presidents of the United States
00:29:06.860 and candidates
00:29:07.380 for federal office.
00:29:08.420 Do you think that
00:29:09.180 Kim Cheadle should be forced
00:29:10.080 to resign?
00:29:10.680 She should tend to her resignation?
00:29:11.760 You know, I believe that yes.
00:29:14.260 I want to see how this call goes.
00:29:16.180 I do not have optimism
00:29:18.240 that we're going to get
00:29:19.100 a lot of information
00:29:19.800 on this call,
00:29:20.460 but the buck stops with you.
00:29:21.860 When you're head
00:29:22.300 of these agencies,
00:29:23.160 the buck stops with you.
00:29:24.700 So I'm very concerned
00:29:25.700 when I see finger pointing
00:29:27.000 in other directions.
00:29:28.040 So I would lean towards yes.
00:29:29.540 I do want to have
00:29:31.080 one opportunity
00:29:31.760 to ask direct questions
00:29:33.140 because I don't hesitate
00:29:34.160 to call for people to resign
00:29:35.100 if they don't know
00:29:35.560 how to answer the questions.
00:29:36.920 In that clip,
00:29:37.520 we had an MSNBC anchor
00:29:39.340 comparing President Trump's
00:29:41.360 ear information
00:29:42.360 to Joe Biden's
00:29:43.880 cognitive decline
00:29:44.880 as like, you know,
00:29:45.520 the same thing.
00:29:46.520 We're entitled to.
00:29:47.560 OK, President Trump
00:29:48.540 did put out a statement
00:29:49.940 saying that the bullet
00:29:51.040 grazed his ear.
00:29:52.120 They just don't believe it.
00:29:53.920 They want it
00:29:54.480 as if any of it matters.
00:29:56.080 I mean, it's absurd.
00:29:56.920 We saw it's on camera.
00:29:59.200 A man is dead.
00:30:00.920 So it's absolutely insane.
00:30:03.000 OK, but anyway,
00:30:03.560 I got to end with this
00:30:05.000 on the subject
00:30:06.200 of Biden's cognitive decline.
00:30:07.740 We broke the news
00:30:09.360 at the top
00:30:09.920 from our friends
00:30:10.880 who are in politics,
00:30:12.020 the guys who host
00:30:12.600 this ruthless program,
00:30:13.900 which we love,
00:30:15.160 that Schumer actually
00:30:16.060 did go to Biden
00:30:17.160 over the weekend
00:30:17.800 and ask him to step down
00:30:19.000 as the nominee.
00:30:20.020 And that, according
00:30:20.800 to our friends
00:30:21.760 who are up next,
00:30:23.120 many news organizations
00:30:24.260 know this
00:30:24.960 and haven't yet reported it.
00:30:27.080 I think they're probably
00:30:27.740 looking to shore up
00:30:28.540 the sources
00:30:28.900 because there are only
00:30:29.340 two men in the room.
00:30:30.520 But if that is true,
00:30:32.220 how significant is that
00:30:33.280 in the wave
00:30:33.800 to get Biden
00:30:34.920 to step aside?
00:30:35.920 You know,
00:30:36.100 that's very significant.
00:30:37.480 I will have to tell you,
00:30:38.200 Megan, I'm not surprised
00:30:39.300 at the highest levels.
00:30:40.540 There is sheer panic
00:30:41.580 because of they see
00:30:42.560 the polling
00:30:43.060 and Leader Schumer
00:30:44.740 sees the polling
00:30:45.540 bottoming out.
00:30:46.240 We are going to flip
00:30:46.860 the Senate
00:30:47.280 and he's no longer
00:30:47.980 going to be the majority
00:30:48.620 leader of the United States
00:30:49.640 Senate.
00:30:50.320 But that will be
00:30:51.020 a bombshell.
00:30:51.940 But I don't think,
00:30:52.800 regardless of what
00:30:53.580 Schumer, Pelosi,
00:30:54.540 and Jeffrey says,
00:30:55.320 I think Joe Biden
00:30:56.140 is in it for,
00:30:57.600 he is going to be
00:30:58.520 on the ballot.
00:30:59.240 He was elected
00:30:59.840 by the Democrat
00:31:00.800 primary voters.
00:31:02.000 I think they are dug
00:31:02.800 in as a family
00:31:03.700 and we're going to
00:31:04.420 defeat Joe Biden
00:31:05.100 this November
00:31:05.680 because I believe
00:31:06.960 the Democratic Party
00:31:07.840 is, we see this
00:31:08.740 in the House,
00:31:09.240 it's so fractured.
00:31:10.760 They are anything
00:31:11.660 but unified
00:31:12.740 and imagine
00:31:14.220 the infighting,
00:31:15.240 imagine with Kamala Harris.
00:31:16.480 So I don't think
00:31:17.360 he steps down
00:31:18.000 but for Schumer
00:31:18.660 to make that call
00:31:19.520 and the media
00:31:20.060 not reporting it,
00:31:21.000 they need to put
00:31:21.580 that reporting out there
00:31:22.380 instead of covering up
00:31:23.160 for them,
00:31:23.660 it doesn't surprise me.
00:31:25.120 Should have had a primary.
00:31:26.940 It's too late now.
00:31:27.780 It is too late now
00:31:28.440 and because they cover.
00:31:29.440 People knew about
00:31:30.140 this cognitive
00:31:30.660 and physical decline
00:31:31.740 and yet they forced it through.
00:31:33.320 This goes back to 2020
00:31:34.300 when he campaigned
00:31:35.040 from his basement,
00:31:35.720 remember?
00:31:36.320 The media protected him
00:31:37.220 campaigning from his basement,
00:31:38.380 the Democratic ecosystem
00:31:39.320 protected him
00:31:40.020 and yet we see
00:31:41.180 just a significant decline.
00:31:43.740 Wow, what a day.
00:31:45.240 This has been quite a week
00:31:46.420 for Republicans.
00:31:47.220 Some shocking things happened,
00:31:48.820 some very positive things happened,
00:31:50.680 the lawfare against
00:31:51.500 President Trump collapsed
00:31:52.620 and we're only,
00:31:54.120 is it Wednesday?
00:31:55.300 Day three.
00:31:55.980 Wednesday, right?
00:31:57.140 Thank you.
00:31:58.060 Thanks for being here.
00:31:59.000 Great to be with you, Megan.
00:31:59.740 Great to see you,
00:32:00.400 to be continued.
00:32:01.200 All right, and up next,
00:32:02.700 the guys from Ruthless.
00:32:03.740 We'll ask them all
00:32:04.340 about their big scoop.
00:32:05.220 Do you ever think,
00:32:06.080 how can I work this hard
00:32:06.880 and still be in debt?
00:32:08.140 The piles of overdue bills,
00:32:09.500 the threatening phone calls,
00:32:10.920 never having money
00:32:11.780 to do anything.
00:32:13.080 If you are trapped in debt,
00:32:14.220 done with debt
00:32:14.960 can be a way out.
00:32:16.680 They have developed
00:32:17.400 aggressive new strategies
00:32:18.680 to end your debt permanently.
00:32:21.100 Done with debt
00:32:21.540 stands between you
00:32:22.740 and the harassing,
00:32:24.380 annoying bill collectors.
00:32:26.000 Who wants to deal with them?
00:32:27.420 They tirelessly negotiate
00:32:28.900 with your creditors
00:32:29.720 to lower
00:32:30.160 or even forgive
00:32:31.340 what you may owe.
00:32:32.720 And they do it all
00:32:33.540 without bankruptcy
00:32:34.220 or new loans.
00:32:35.740 One client said,
00:32:36.820 one phone call
00:32:37.420 saved us a fortune.
00:32:39.400 I only wish
00:32:39.900 we'd done this long ago.
00:32:41.800 Done with debt
00:32:42.420 has unique strategies
00:32:43.520 to get you out of debt faster
00:32:45.000 and put more money
00:32:45.800 in your pocket every month.
00:32:47.300 But you need to hurry

00:33:26.500 Republican National Convention
00:33:27.640 in Milwaukee
00:33:28.200 where we have some
00:33:29.160 major breaking news
00:33:30.160 from the guys
00:33:31.120 of the Ruthless Program
00:33:32.340 involving President Biden's
00:33:34.320 re-election campaign.
00:33:35.400 Joining me now on set
00:33:36.380 Josh Holmes,
00:33:37.240 Michael Duncan,
00:33:38.060 John Ashbrook
00:33:38.760 and the man known
00:33:39.780 to his minions
00:33:40.340 as Comfortably Smug.
00:33:41.980 We've all gone smug.
00:33:43.280 We've all gone the full smug.
00:33:44.680 It's great.
00:33:45.120 It's a good look.
00:33:45.640 It's nice.
00:33:46.660 It is rather sunny
00:33:47.700 so why not
00:33:48.540 if you can't beat him
00:33:49.060 join him.
00:33:49.540 That's a beautiful day
00:33:50.340 here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
00:33:51.740 All right.
00:33:51.980 So I want to get to your news
00:33:52.940 on Schumer first
00:33:53.520 but I do want to tell
00:33:54.160 the audience
00:33:54.460 this is just in.
00:33:55.720 This is from Fox News
00:33:56.820 about the shooter
00:33:58.400 in the attempted assassination
00:33:59.760 of President Trump
00:34:00.580 via Fox News.
00:34:01.880 Thomas Matthew Crook's
00:34:02.760 parents were looking
00:34:04.660 for him on Saturday
00:34:05.780 in the hours leading up
00:34:07.320 to the Trump shooting
00:34:08.240 and eventually called
00:34:09.740 law enforcement
00:34:10.420 to indicate he was missing
00:34:12.400 and they were worried.
00:34:14.340 It is unclear
00:34:14.920 what his parents
00:34:15.580 told authorities
00:34:16.340 but the call happened
00:34:17.180 on Saturday
00:34:17.660 before Crook's
00:34:19.280 later opened fire
00:34:20.360 at Trump
00:34:21.120 during the rally.
00:34:22.560 The parents are being
00:34:23.120 cooperative with authorities
00:34:24.160 and the FBI is still
00:34:24.960 trying to determine
00:34:25.640 a motive for the attack.
00:34:27.080 I mean that to me says
00:34:28.020 that you don't call
00:34:28.680 the cops on your
00:34:29.520 20-year-old son
00:34:30.340 when you just can't
00:34:30.840 find him for the morning.
00:34:31.860 Oh totally.
00:34:32.420 He left a note
00:34:33.260 so there's going
00:34:33.700 to be something.
00:34:34.440 Yeah.
00:34:35.000 They had reason
00:34:36.380 to believe he was
00:34:37.280 up to no good.
00:34:37.880 That's my assumption
00:34:38.500 based on what we just read.
00:34:39.520 Yeah I mean something
00:34:40.260 short of like
00:34:40.800 a schizophrenic break
00:34:41.900 there has to be signs.
00:34:43.360 Right.
00:34:43.520 There has to be something
00:34:44.600 somebody knew
00:34:45.300 and clearly they were
00:34:45.880 worried if they called
00:34:46.620 the authorities.
00:34:47.860 Just a huge
00:34:49.200 malfunction here
00:34:50.500 overall.
00:34:51.520 And now it's in the news
00:34:52.340 as we knew it would be.
00:34:54.020 He did indeed
00:34:54.640 have mental health problems
00:34:56.140 according to some
00:34:56.980 of the friends
00:34:57.380 who knew him.
00:34:58.360 It wasn't just odd.
00:34:59.500 He seemed to be off.
00:35:00.640 Something changed in him.
00:35:01.980 And it's no accident
00:35:02.660 he was 20.
00:35:03.200 We see this a lot
00:35:03.840 with young male shooters
00:35:05.580 when they're around 19
00:35:06.620 or they're around 20 years old.
00:35:08.040 There can be a mental break.
00:35:09.500 This is not any sort
00:35:10.460 of an excuse
00:35:10.940 but it's just
00:35:11.520 we've seen it a million times.
00:35:12.860 We'll find out.
00:35:13.540 We don't know
00:35:13.840 whether that's what happened here
00:35:14.880 but the fact that the parents
00:35:15.880 knew law enforcement
00:35:18.040 needed to be called
00:35:18.680 about this kid
00:35:19.620 is huge.
00:35:21.020 So is your news
00:35:21.740 about Schumer.
00:35:22.640 Who wants to take that one?
00:35:23.860 Let's start with
00:35:24.400 Smash down on the end.
00:35:25.260 He's kind of our
00:35:25.980 Washington correspondent.
00:35:27.920 You look so grown up.
00:35:29.980 I can't
00:35:30.360 I kind of can't get over it.
00:35:32.020 Thank you guys.
00:35:32.760 He fakes it super well.
00:35:35.560 One of the things
00:35:36.440 we all know
00:35:36.920 about the Washington media
00:35:38.220 is that they don't report
00:35:39.540 everything they know
00:35:40.900 but often there are rumors
00:35:42.640 that circulate among them
00:35:44.020 that they cannot put
00:35:44.940 in the newspaper
00:35:45.440 because they don't want
00:35:46.720 to burn their bosses
00:35:48.080 their Democrat sources.
00:35:49.760 What we understand
00:35:51.340 is that Chuck Schumer
00:35:53.480 drove himself
00:35:54.780 or was driven
00:35:55.740 to Delaware
00:35:56.760 to have a personal
00:35:58.260 one-on-one meeting
00:35:59.380 with Joe Biden
00:36:00.140 to make his appeal
00:36:01.280 that Biden
00:36:02.140 should not be the nominee.
00:36:03.580 They're trying to steal
00:36:04.320 the nomination
00:36:05.000 from this old man.
00:36:06.560 Arm wrestle it away.
00:36:09.120 And it apparently
00:36:09.980 didn't go over well.
00:36:10.820 It didn't.
00:36:11.260 Josh has the details
00:36:12.140 on the meeting.
00:36:12.600 What a shock.
00:36:13.440 Yeah well I mean
00:36:14.300 so look I think
00:36:15.680 knowing Schumer
00:36:16.540 I speculate what he does
00:36:18.020 but I'm sure that he had
00:36:18.920 poll numbers
00:36:19.420 and all kinds of things
00:36:20.240 indicating it was
00:36:20.880 a huge problem
00:36:21.540 for the party
00:36:22.040 down ballot obviously.
00:36:23.400 And this is the moment
00:36:23.960 right Biden said
00:36:24.820 I'll resign if somebody
00:36:25.540 shows me that I can't win
00:36:26.560 so he goes in with polls.
00:36:27.420 So I think he took
00:36:28.100 advantage of it
00:36:28.840 and had this conversation
00:36:30.460 ultimately didn't get
00:36:31.880 the answer that he wanted
00:36:32.900 when he came out
00:36:33.840 of the meeting
00:36:34.220 he said good meeting
00:36:35.160 which to me
00:36:36.180 immediately was a huge sign
00:36:37.980 right if you're meeting
00:36:38.700 with a nominee
00:36:39.280 of your party
00:36:40.200 100 days before an election
00:36:41.840 and you don't say
00:36:43.260 I fully support Joe Biden
00:36:44.920 and you know
00:36:45.300 he's twisting in the wind.
00:36:46.220 Yeah I fully support him
00:36:47.700 our conference supports him
00:36:48.800 we can't wait to vote
00:36:49.660 for him in November
00:36:50.420 something short of that
00:36:51.600 indicates there's
00:36:52.600 something else that happened
00:36:53.520 and then what we found out
00:36:54.660 when we got to Milwaukee
00:36:55.720 it's the worst kept secret
00:36:57.500 every single journalist
00:36:58.580 whether it's you know
00:36:59.280 you name the publication
00:37:00.360 we've talked to him
00:37:01.520 over the last few days
00:37:02.440 every single person
00:37:03.580 knows exactly what happened
00:37:04.800 but they asked Chuck Schumer
00:37:05.840 and it's a one-on-one meeting
00:37:07.280 and he denies it
00:37:08.260 so they're not reporting.
00:37:09.740 Well I mean obviously
00:37:10.300 he's spoken
00:37:11.420 and so has Biden to others
00:37:12.820 and that's how these
00:37:13.380 reporters get it
00:37:14.140 and you know
00:37:14.520 they always report things
00:37:15.440 that are not
00:37:15.860 you don't get
00:37:16.280 from the direct source
00:37:17.040 so this is kind of sketchy
00:37:18.000 to me
00:37:18.280 there's a reason
00:37:18.940 well it's about a democrat
00:37:19.920 Megan
00:37:20.380 but now the press
00:37:22.280 has turned on him
00:37:23.080 so they want this out
00:37:24.860 probably
00:37:25.300 and so the interesting thing
00:37:26.260 is as soon as we
00:37:27.360 bring this up
00:37:28.420 I check my twitter
00:37:29.420 after we put it out there
00:37:31.020 and Schumer's press secretary
00:37:32.660 starts following me
00:37:33.520 yeah he's not a huge fan
00:37:34.760 not a known fan
00:37:35.580 I appreciate him
00:37:37.000 I appreciate him
00:37:38.700 confirming that
00:37:39.560 be like well I gotta
00:37:40.780 keep an eye on these guys
00:37:41.860 because somehow
00:37:42.360 they hear it
00:37:43.200 maybe he wants to
00:37:43.940 DM you something exciting
00:37:45.200 be like hey
00:37:45.760 can you please get this
00:37:46.740 guy off the ballot
00:37:47.600 we don't know how to do it
00:37:48.740 well speaking of that
00:37:49.740 I checked
00:37:51.180 Drudge before we came to air
00:37:53.040 and the headlines are
00:37:54.340 Adam Schiff warning
00:37:55.840 big democrat losses
00:37:57.100 if you know
00:37:58.120 Biden stays on
00:37:59.060 the ballot
00:37:59.560 and then they're citing
00:38:00.340 this poll
00:38:01.040 by Blue Labs analysis
00:38:02.740 I guess this is a
00:38:03.360 democrat pollster firm
00:38:04.400 they had to have
00:38:06.180 Jonathan Martin of Politico
00:38:07.100 which is where the article
00:38:08.040 was from
00:38:08.540 just showing that
00:38:10.000 every single other
00:38:11.000 possible candidate
00:38:11.800 outperforms Joe Biden
00:38:13.140 versus Donald Trump
00:38:14.700 every single one of them
00:38:15.480 every one of them
00:38:16.200 you name it
00:38:16.740 it's not hard
00:38:18.220 to come to that conclusion
00:38:19.440 I mean there's an
00:38:19.980 AP poll out today
00:38:21.200 that stunned me
00:38:22.240 because it shows
00:38:23.200 two thirds of democrats
00:38:24.860 democrats want their nominee
00:38:26.640 to not be the nominee
00:38:28.100 right now
00:38:28.720 that is an astounding
00:38:29.960 we're 100 days out
00:38:31.240 this is a republican
00:38:32.180 national convention
00:38:33.040 we're just weeks away
00:38:33.980 from a democrat
00:38:34.580 national convention
00:38:35.360 not only did they not
00:38:36.560 unify behind an incumbent
00:38:38.100 president of the United States
00:38:39.160 they're actively trying
00:38:40.520 to push them out
00:38:41.140 in the waning days
00:38:41.960 before they actually
00:38:42.720 are stuck with them
00:38:43.660 right now they have
00:38:44.500 till August 7th
00:38:45.880 unless they move
00:38:46.780 that online vote
00:38:48.040 or I think they moved
00:38:48.920 their nomination process
00:38:51.240 up to a virtual thing
00:38:52.480 on August 7th
00:38:53.340 because of some weird
00:38:54.060 Ohio rule
00:38:54.800 but then the Ohio rule
00:38:56.360 got changed
00:38:56.900 so they don't have to do it
00:38:57.940 on August 7th
00:38:58.700 and all these house dems
00:38:59.740 are saying
00:39:00.120 then don't
00:39:00.880 I mean that's the
00:39:01.920 incredible thing
00:39:02.420 is again
00:39:03.380 you've got the head
00:39:04.140 of the DNC
00:39:04.960 fighting with progressive
00:39:06.480 activists saying that
00:39:07.440 oh you know
00:39:08.380 our hands are tied
00:39:09.520 and everyone is telling him
00:39:10.900 look we know
00:39:12.120 you're lying to us
00:39:13.160 this is not the case
00:39:14.620 you can still replace him
00:39:15.860 and he's like
00:39:16.600 well here's what
00:39:17.120 we're gonna do
00:39:17.620 is we're gonna secretly
00:39:18.640 online just make him
00:39:19.900 the nominee
00:39:20.380 that's how democracy
00:39:21.520 is seen
00:39:21.980 just be quiet
00:39:23.520 but you know
00:39:25.260 it is funny
00:39:25.760 I was saying this
00:39:26.300 last week
00:39:26.720 but it's like
00:39:27.120 the Republicans
00:39:28.080 the MAGA supporters
00:39:29.800 are completely aligned
00:39:31.280 with the Joe Biden
00:39:32.040 diehards
00:39:32.760 democracy
00:39:34.000 you chose him
00:39:35.280 it's very wrong
00:39:37.340 to deprive his voters
00:39:38.800 of their vote
00:39:39.580 I think there is more
00:39:41.440 support in this convention
00:39:42.620 hall for Joe Biden
00:39:43.560 than there will be
00:39:44.140 in Chicago
00:39:44.640 I think that's a safe assumption
00:39:48.620 did you guys notice
00:39:49.360 last night
00:39:49.920 and a little bit
00:39:50.800 on Monday too
00:39:51.380 I heard Kamala Harris's
00:39:52.560 name a lot more
00:39:53.300 than I would expect to
00:39:54.420 like Joe Biden
00:39:55.480 and Kamala Harris's
00:39:56.260 policies this
00:39:56.980 they keep
00:39:58.020 like they're
00:39:58.660 they're hedging
00:39:59.460 they're smart
00:40:00.060 they know she might be coming
00:40:01.480 yeah I mean Duncan
00:40:02.120 we've talked about
00:40:02.780 this is like something
00:40:03.720 that somewhere along
00:40:05.800 the way you get
00:40:06.560 the impression
00:40:07.080 that this is
00:40:07.820 they're gonna have
00:40:08.640 to do something drastic
00:40:09.600 or they're gonna
00:40:10.160 lose by a lot here
00:40:11.260 yeah I mean
00:40:12.360 I don't know
00:40:12.920 if you guys have
00:40:13.320 noticed this
00:40:13.920 is it Duncan
00:40:14.600 or is it J.D. Vance
00:40:15.540 it's J.D. Vance
00:40:16.160 it's J.D. Vance
00:40:17.560 it's Michael Clark Duncan
00:40:19.560 Michael Clark
00:40:20.120 but if you've noticed
00:40:23.120 like after
00:40:23.720 you know
00:40:24.580 the shooting
00:40:25.220 on Saturday
00:40:26.120 the White House
00:40:27.420 put out a bunch
00:40:27.940 of photos
00:40:28.540 of Joe Biden
00:40:29.680 meeting with
00:40:30.400 you know
00:40:30.640 security
00:40:31.180 intel
00:40:31.860 all of these
00:40:32.340 and Kamala Harris
00:40:33.720 was in all of those
00:40:34.500 photos
00:40:34.920 sitting next to him
00:40:36.480 which is
00:40:37.060 sort of rare
00:40:38.020 yeah
00:40:38.540 situations
00:40:39.300 and unnecessary
00:40:40.080 and unnecessary
00:40:40.840 yeah
00:40:41.600 you saw him say
00:40:42.800 when he was asked
00:40:44.140 about Kamala Harris
00:40:44.760 in this one interview
00:40:45.420 like
00:40:45.740 I don't
00:40:46.500 was it Lester
00:40:47.040 I can't remember
00:40:47.460 who it was
00:40:47.800 he's done a few lately
00:40:48.620 and he was like
00:40:49.700 yeah
00:40:49.900 the reason I
00:40:51.100 made her my vice president
00:40:52.140 she could be president
00:40:52.880 she would be great president
00:40:53.880 like even he's
00:40:55.060 starting to allow
00:40:56.180 a little window there
00:40:57.180 I know
00:40:57.660 but you mentioned
00:40:58.200 Saturday night
00:40:58.700 I wanted to show you this
00:40:59.520 it's been on my mind
00:41:00.720 we saw President Trump
00:41:01.760 now in this famous moment
00:41:03.320 right
00:41:03.580 with the blood
00:41:04.280 and the fight
00:41:05.660 iconic
00:41:06.860 that night
00:41:07.680 when Joe Biden
00:41:08.400 flew back to D.C.
00:41:09.800 from his
00:41:10.380 weekend vacation home
00:41:11.620 there was this moment
00:41:13.560 on CNN
00:41:14.100 when he walked
00:41:14.880 up
00:41:15.360 the stairs
00:41:16.680 of Air Force One
00:41:17.840 I want to show it to you
00:41:18.720 look at this
00:41:19.340 he looked
00:41:20.580 so
00:41:21.340 feeble
00:41:22.240 guys
00:41:22.660 just look at it
00:41:24.500 just watch this
00:41:25.880 oh
00:41:28.260 man it's just
00:41:31.700 watch him
00:41:32.240 watch it
00:41:32.940 it's like you're like
00:41:33.420 oh god don't
00:41:34.200 you don't hit your head
00:41:34.940 careful
00:41:35.220 yeah don't
00:41:36.240 look at that
00:41:37.980 all the steps
00:41:39.780 and the split screen
00:41:40.760 right
00:41:41.020 it's like
00:41:41.520 this is what America's
00:41:43.320 feeling
00:41:44.340 egg in their heart
00:41:45.740 and their gut
00:41:46.340 no matter what
00:41:47.600 these polls
00:41:47.940 I don't care about
00:41:48.540 it's the story
00:41:49.800 of the election
00:41:50.380 Megan
00:41:50.760 it's a contrast
00:41:52.000 between the weakness
00:41:53.200 we have in the White House
00:41:54.240 right now
00:41:54.820 or the strength
00:41:55.660 that a real
00:41:56.200 commander in chief
00:41:57.040 is projecting
00:41:57.680 at this convention
00:41:58.600 this week
00:41:59.360 what Donald Trump
00:42:00.480 did Saturday
00:42:01.680 when he raised his fist
00:42:03.140 and he told people
00:42:04.220 to fight
00:42:04.700 was he sent a message
00:42:06.520 not just to our country
00:42:07.560 but to the entire world
00:42:08.780 that he is back
00:42:10.160 that America is back
00:42:11.500 and all of a sudden
00:42:12.360 I'm sure you noticed this
00:42:13.420 I know we noticed this
00:42:14.500 more and more people
00:42:16.240 these suburban voters
00:42:17.400 they are slowly coming out
00:42:20.140 and saying
00:42:20.540 you know what
00:42:21.020 Trump's doing the right thing
00:42:22.120 might be the right guy
00:42:22.800 at the right time
00:42:23.400 right
00:42:23.580 I mean we talked a lot
00:42:24.660 about this the last couple of days
00:42:25.860 and regardless of what
00:42:26.960 you thought about Trump
00:42:27.800 for the last eight years
00:42:29.000 when you look at
00:42:30.420 what happened on Saturday
00:42:31.560 and you look at the contrast
00:42:32.940 as John just said
00:42:34.040 of strength
00:42:35.020 both in policy
00:42:36.100 and how you run a country
00:42:37.720 in a White House
00:42:38.380 and the sort of feeling
00:42:39.520 that you have as an American
00:42:40.820 was just sort of
00:42:42.160 iconically embodied
00:42:43.460 by that moment
00:42:44.220 when he raised his fist
00:42:45.240 and said fight fight fight
00:42:46.340 with blood dripping
00:42:47.020 down his face
00:42:47.660 and it's
00:42:48.400 now is the time
00:42:49.740 right now is the time
00:42:51.060 we didn't know
00:42:51.740 how depressed
00:42:52.300 we actually were
00:42:53.240 yeah
00:42:53.640 until we saw somebody
00:42:55.420 just want to fight for us
00:42:56.980 and that was a moment
00:42:58.380 that you just
00:42:59.000 crossed party lines
00:43:00.240 huge amount of people
00:43:01.780 beginning to entertain
00:43:02.780 the unthinkable
00:43:03.580 for them
00:43:04.260 you see him
00:43:05.240 in a different light
00:43:06.260 it's like
00:43:07.360 the guy who did
00:43:08.740 all the controversial stuff
00:43:10.040 had to be that way
00:43:11.940 because he's that way
00:43:13.160 like they go together
00:43:14.720 that's right
00:43:15.160 it's just
00:43:15.700 you can't get one
00:43:16.460 without the other
00:43:17.000 and we really want that one
00:43:18.240 we really
00:43:18.860 we need that one
00:43:19.920 that's why after Afghanistan
00:43:21.140 a lot of us were saying
00:43:21.900 there's just no way
00:43:23.000 President Trump
00:43:23.480 would have allowed this
00:43:24.120 even though he proposed
00:43:25.060 the Afghanistan withdrawal plan
00:43:26.300 you knew in your gut
00:43:27.400 he wouldn't have allowed it
00:43:28.180 to go that badly
00:43:28.960 give up Bagram Air Force Base
00:43:31.220 because he is such a fighter
00:43:33.500 when things start going south
00:43:35.060 his instinct is to fight harder
00:43:37.320 not to cave
00:43:38.380 now over on the Joe Biden side
00:43:42.120 oh actually wait
00:43:42.700 before I do that
00:43:43.320 did you see by chance
00:43:44.680 the Michael Steele clip
00:43:45.480 that I played
00:43:46.040 with Elise Stefanik
00:43:47.140 that might be worth a re-rack
00:43:48.620 control room team
00:43:49.740 let's get
00:43:50.240 let's take it
00:43:50.680 Michael Steele
00:43:51.260 is he
00:43:51.800 can you
00:43:52.320 maybe you guys can tell me
00:43:53.240 is he officially
00:43:54.640 out of the Republican Party
00:43:56.940 is he one of those
00:43:57.780 like Joe Scarborough
00:43:58.560 I have a big announcement
00:43:59.440 I'm now an independent
00:44:00.500 oh
00:44:01.360 we're shocked
00:44:02.320 I think he might still be
00:44:04.280 technically
00:44:04.800 a member of
00:44:06.440 the party
00:44:07.420 that's celebrating
00:44:08.140 its nominee
00:44:08.780 I don't know
00:44:09.480 Megan I don't know
00:44:10.200 it feels like Serpico
00:44:11.100 he's been so deep
00:44:12.220 undercover for so long
00:44:13.540 yes
00:44:14.020 I mean he went
00:44:15.120 even deeper Duncan
00:44:16.060 he flipped
00:44:16.560 he went another level
00:44:17.720 okay look at this
00:44:18.620 it's been three days
00:44:20.880 going on four
00:44:21.680 since this horrific
00:44:23.120 event occurred
00:44:24.180 a person lost their life
00:44:25.520 two have been
00:44:26.040 severely injured
00:44:26.760 and yet we've not
00:44:27.860 received a medical report
00:44:29.280 from the hospital
00:44:30.000 nor have we received
00:44:30.820 a medical report
00:44:31.600 from the campaign
00:44:32.420 or from the Trump
00:44:33.800 organization
00:44:34.440 about the extent
00:44:35.440 of the damage
00:44:36.520 to his ear
00:44:37.260 if he was shot
00:44:38.520 by a high caliber bullet
00:44:39.880 there should probably
00:44:41.520 be very little ear there
00:44:42.940 and so we'd like
00:44:44.860 to know that
00:44:45.400 is there cosmetic
00:44:46.260 surgery involved
00:44:47.660 what is the
00:44:48.320 prognosis for recovery
00:44:50.580 were there stitches
00:44:51.420 what is the extent
00:44:53.260 and nature
00:44:53.860 of the damage
00:44:54.620 to his ear
00:44:55.320 was it caused
00:44:56.340 by a bullet
00:44:56.920 as opposed to
00:44:57.880 with some reports
00:44:58.820 from those
00:44:59.960 on the scene
00:45:00.840 other reporters
00:45:01.780 saying that
00:45:02.940 it was actually
00:45:03.900 shards of glass
00:45:05.480 from the teleprompter
00:45:07.100 itself
00:45:07.500 not the bullet
00:45:08.580 so there are a lot
00:45:09.820 of questions
00:45:10.420 around that ear
00:45:11.460 are there
00:45:11.980 are there
00:45:12.600 are you gotta forget
00:45:13.620 our email
00:45:14.080 we already played him
00:45:15.300 can you believe that
00:45:16.240 no
00:45:16.620 I'm shocked
00:45:18.600 ballistics expert
00:45:19.900 Michael Steele
00:45:20.620 right
00:45:20.980 what are you doing dude
00:45:23.100 your ear would be gone
00:45:24.260 we saw it
00:45:25.160 right like
00:45:25.600 is he suggesting
00:45:26.540 that it was all
00:45:27.440 a deep fake
00:45:28.140 he's doing
00:45:28.720 he's doing the homage
00:45:29.680 to the online left
00:45:31.940 or something there
00:45:32.780 where it's like
00:45:33.220 all a big conspiracy
00:45:34.400 Olbermann's been going
00:45:35.680 off on this for days
00:45:36.580 was he shot by a bullet
00:45:38.680 or was it
00:45:39.880 the theory is that
00:45:41.440 the teleprompter
00:45:42.500 which was there
00:45:43.200 was shot
00:45:43.900 and the glass
00:45:44.560 hit Trump's ear
00:45:45.380 who gives a flying fig
00:45:47.020 who cares
00:45:48.160 and so
00:45:48.840 here's the thing is
00:45:49.800 they know
00:45:50.780 they are so cooked
00:45:52.000 they want to find
00:45:53.040 no matter how minimal
00:45:54.220 any way to
00:45:55.460 undermine the courage
00:45:56.760 and strength
00:45:57.520 that Donald Trump
00:45:58.220 showed in that moment
00:45:58.920 that theory
00:46:00.220 that harebrained theory
00:46:01.300 about the teleprompter
00:46:02.140 was disproven
00:46:02.860 within minutes
00:46:03.640 by reporters on the scene
00:46:04.840 who saw every single
00:46:05.820 teleprompter was intact
00:46:07.100 and it's been
00:46:08.240 already reported
00:46:09.000 that it was a bullet
00:46:09.720 that pierced his ear
00:46:10.700 and the president
00:46:11.600 has said
00:46:12.160 it was a bullet
00:46:12.940 but Donald Trump
00:46:13.980 has said
00:46:14.400 I was hit by a bullet
00:46:15.360 there's been nothing
00:46:16.880 to contradict that
00:46:17.740 but I couldn't care less
00:46:18.960 I saw him get hit
00:46:20.480 with something
00:46:21.080 and a man is dead
00:46:22.240 and two others
00:46:22.900 are fighting for their lives
00:46:23.920 right now
00:46:24.300 what I don't understand
00:46:25.120 is why is it always
00:46:26.520 the former Republicans
00:46:27.980 who go so hard left
00:46:29.680 yes did you see
00:46:30.340 the Lincoln Project today
00:46:31.500 it's insane
00:46:32.600 well we saw
00:46:33.180 six of their trucks
00:46:34.100 that somebody paid for
00:46:35.160 lined up and parked outside
00:46:36.460 that nobody's looking at
00:46:37.420 which you know
00:46:37.920 people still donate money
00:46:38.940 to that
00:46:39.220 it's hard to believe
00:46:40.420 they are today
00:46:41.200 comparing him to Hitler
00:46:43.620 no way
00:46:44.340 today
00:46:45.040 they're insane lunatics
00:46:47.120 so why
00:46:48.260 to be institutionalized
00:46:49.320 yes
00:46:49.640 oh here it is
00:46:50.420 look
00:46:50.660 Hitler's power wasn't taken
00:46:52.240 it was given
00:46:53.020 and once he had control
00:46:54.460 he enacted his horrifying
00:46:55.920 dictatorial agenda
00:46:57.180 the same dynamic
00:46:58.720 is at play with Trump
00:46:59.740 with a picture of Adolf Hitler
00:47:01.040 and you know what
00:47:01.840 this is very much on purpose
00:47:04.040 because there is a very significant
00:47:06.060 portion of the Democrat party
00:47:08.500 which is that kind of brain damaged
00:47:11.640 to think these things that
00:47:13.020 oh it was a shard of glass
00:47:14.320 or no it was a blood pack
00:47:15.300 this is all a setup
00:47:16.100 this is fake
00:47:16.740 and those people want someone
00:47:18.680 to voice their insanity
00:47:20.060 and they're happy to voice it
00:47:21.600 to take money from it
00:47:22.600 yes
00:47:22.820 and we started the show
00:47:24.080 with Kara Swisher
00:47:24.760 out there saying
00:47:25.560 well
00:47:25.820 I wrote down
00:47:26.740 disgusting
00:47:27.480 he was pretty fast on his feet
00:47:28.820 pointing out Trump got up fast
00:47:31.260 and so she's suspicious
00:47:32.280 and then they were making jokes
00:47:33.400 about
00:47:33.700 they were making jokes
00:47:34.440 her and Scott Galloway
00:47:35.360 about it
00:47:36.080 should we say jokes about it
00:47:37.420 for a while
00:47:37.800 yeah sure
00:47:38.300 they thought it was hilarious
00:47:39.180 and then he goes
00:47:39.940 too soon
00:47:40.480 I got an answer for you
00:47:41.580 yes it's too soon
00:47:42.440 it actually is too soon
00:47:43.560 there are a lot of people
00:47:44.160 who are really rattled by that
00:47:45.720 not only because they love Trump
00:47:47.840 but even if you're not
00:47:48.920 in love with Trump
00:47:49.660 you're in love with the country
00:47:50.940 and you realize
00:47:51.680 that in that split second
00:47:52.880 it could have exploded
00:47:54.300 the country
00:47:55.120 the country would be
00:47:56.820 burning right now
00:47:57.980 if President Trump's
00:48:00.040 head had blown up
00:48:00.960 I mean it's unthinkable
00:48:02.920 right
00:48:03.340 it's unthinkable
00:48:04.220 and also for these people
00:48:05.500 not to realize
00:48:06.160 what a fragile state
00:48:06.980 we're in
00:48:07.400 just as a country
00:48:08.400 overall
00:48:09.280 I mean things are
00:48:10.460 polarized
00:48:11.080 things are tough
00:48:12.220 what we saw
00:48:13.120 out of President Trump
00:48:13.780 was really a unifying moment
00:48:15.300 I thought what we heard
00:48:16.220 last night
00:48:16.760 from all the speeches
00:48:17.880 were exceptional
00:48:19.040 there was a point
00:48:21.120 to each of them
00:48:22.300 there was a constituency
00:48:23.420 not just within
00:48:24.940 the Republican Party
00:48:25.840 but well into the
00:48:27.000 center right center left
00:48:28.080 of potential voters
00:48:30.060 that was directly delivered
00:48:31.620 by Nikki Haley
00:48:32.400 Ron DeSantis
00:48:33.200 I thought Ramaswamy
00:48:34.180 did an incredible job
00:48:35.160 outstanding
00:48:35.620 it's coming up
00:48:36.560 they just sort of
00:48:37.560 figured out
00:48:38.180 how to have this
00:48:39.020 unifying message
00:48:39.760 and meanwhile
00:48:40.380 you got that nonsense
00:48:41.940 from the left
00:48:42.720 I mean they look insane
00:48:43.820 right
00:48:44.200 really like genuinely insane
00:48:46.160 openly speculating
00:48:47.640 I mean suggesting
00:48:48.660 that this didn't happen
00:48:50.200 that it was some sort
00:48:51.280 of a fake
00:48:52.040 I mean tell it
00:48:53.680 to the fire chief's widow
00:48:55.360 exactly
00:48:55.940 that was a point
00:48:56.760 we made yesterday
00:48:57.480 I'm sure they have
00:48:58.220 a different opinion
00:48:58.740 about the realness
00:48:59.680 of the impact
00:49:00.640 of all of that
00:49:01.320 right
00:49:01.620 like how dare she
00:49:02.780 go out there
00:49:03.560 and make fun
00:49:05.240 of the situation
00:49:06.140 when people
00:49:07.280 haven't even had
00:49:08.160 funerals yet
00:49:09.140 and there's two people
00:49:10.420 right now
00:49:10.940 who we don't know
00:49:11.860 how they're gonna
00:49:12.380 we hope they're gonna
00:49:13.300 come through
00:49:13.800 but they're not
00:49:14.700 the only ones
00:49:15.300 you guys know
00:49:16.300 Daily Coase
00:49:16.960 right
00:49:17.260 is that still around
00:49:19.060 yes it's still around
00:49:20.040 I thought that went
00:49:20.540 the way of the
00:49:21.040 Lincoln Project intern
00:49:22.140 I'm sorry
00:49:22.320 it's still around
00:49:23.980 oh my god
00:49:27.020 did you say
00:49:27.700 Lincoln Project intern
00:49:28.820 program
00:49:29.340 yeah
00:49:29.740 okay yeah
00:49:30.320 right now
00:49:31.300 world renown
00:49:32.160 here's from Daily Coase
00:49:33.500 this is just this morning
00:49:34.500 unfortunately this is
00:49:35.860 looking like they will
00:49:36.580 need to be stopped
00:49:37.320 no matter what
00:49:38.000 and that will require
00:49:39.080 having an uncomfortable
00:49:40.060 conversation
00:49:40.740 about how certain
00:49:41.980 things are not
00:49:43.080 unconditionally evil
00:49:44.180 and how collective
00:49:45.360 self-defense
00:49:46.000 in the name of liberty
00:49:47.220 no
00:49:47.800 is not the same
00:49:48.580 and never has been
00:49:49.400 the same as
00:49:50.000 domestic terrorism
00:49:50.960 in the name of
00:49:51.920 oppression
00:49:52.340 and then another post
00:49:53.760 somebody else
00:49:54.540 the official policy
00:49:55.520 of the United States
00:49:56.180 toward the GOP
00:49:56.940 should be identical
00:49:58.040 to the policies
00:49:58.840 Germany has
00:50:00.000 against the Nazis
00:50:00.900 this
00:50:01.960 what
00:50:02.580 these are all leftists
00:50:04.080 they're saying
00:50:05.000 how they really feel
00:50:06.160 that too bad
00:50:07.800 he missed
00:50:08.260 there was nothing
00:50:09.360 wrong with what he did
00:50:10.320 Trump does need
00:50:11.480 to be taken out
00:50:12.220 and maybe the whole
00:50:13.500 thing was false
00:50:14.000 to make him look good
00:50:14.820 let's see the damn
00:50:16.080 ear
00:50:16.540 by the way
00:50:17.380 not for nothing
00:50:17.960 but Eric Trump
00:50:18.680 apparently just
00:50:19.880 put out the fact
00:50:20.900 that the ear
00:50:22.500 is not in stitches
00:50:23.500 but he has a quote
00:50:26.120 nice flesh wound
00:50:27.120 we know
00:50:27.820 because we saw
00:50:29.320 we saw it
00:50:29.680 we watched it
00:50:30.100 it's all on camera
00:50:31.040 it's not like this
00:50:31.940 happened in a dark
00:50:32.900 room
00:50:33.540 a smoky back room
00:50:34.620 or off cam
00:50:35.300 like where nobody
00:50:36.180 could see
00:50:36.620 it just happened
00:50:37.360 it was there
00:50:38.200 everybody saw with
00:50:39.620 their eyes
00:50:39.960 we also know the
00:50:40.560 impact
00:50:40.880 like you mentioned
00:50:41.340 the firefighter
00:50:42.180 like none of this
00:50:42.840 stuff is a secret
00:50:43.640 these are crazy people
00:50:45.200 they should be
00:50:45.980 let me just say
00:50:46.960 about that kind of thing
00:50:48.220 it is absolutely
00:50:49.900 essential
00:50:50.640 that if secret service
00:50:52.080 is doing their job
00:50:52.980 they go visit
00:50:53.800 100%
00:50:54.400 yes
00:50:54.720 go on Daily Coast
00:50:55.880 go on
00:50:56.720 check the comments
00:50:57.500 you'll be there all day
00:50:58.420 if those people
00:50:59.000 don't get a knock
00:50:59.580 on the door
00:50:59.980 it is
00:51:00.900 they're not
00:51:01.240 doing their job
00:51:02.080 that's basic
00:51:02.780 buddy
00:51:03.420 the problem
00:51:04.200 isn't limited
00:51:05.260 to Daily Coast
00:51:06.180 commenters
00:51:06.880 there were people
00:51:08.060 who have jobs
00:51:09.400 in the federal government
00:51:10.820 who were tweeting memes
00:51:12.080 about Trump
00:51:12.860 should have died
00:51:13.680 about how it should
00:51:14.900 have been different
00:51:15.480 in the federal government
00:51:16.640 there's an employee
00:51:17.900 of the FBI
00:51:18.660 everybody was tweeting
00:51:19.840 about this over the weekend
00:51:20.780 it is
00:51:21.500 it's horrifying
00:51:22.580 I mean he's a leader
00:51:23.980 he's an American leader
00:51:25.220 for crying out
00:51:25.900 agree with his politics
00:51:27.080 or not agree with his politics
00:51:28.260 that doesn't matter
00:51:30.060 well look at the outpouring
00:51:31.160 from across the world
00:51:31.980 I mean there were world leaders
00:51:32.860 everywhere that put out statements
00:51:34.080 right
00:51:34.460 and that should tell you
00:51:35.660 right away
00:51:36.020 the significance
00:51:36.660 that he has
00:51:37.620 to our country
00:51:38.760 they see him
00:51:39.540 do you see that video today
00:51:40.600 with those kids in Uganda
00:51:41.640 doing like a reenactment of it
00:51:43.300 and they were
00:51:43.720 they were like celebrating
00:51:45.020 his fight
00:51:46.200 fight moment
00:51:47.140 it was actually
00:51:47.760 pretty extraordinary
00:51:49.060 but that
00:51:49.500 it's had a worldwide
00:51:50.380 impact
00:51:51.280 stand by
00:51:51.760 quick break
00:51:52.340 so much more to get to
00:51:53.580 with the fellas
00:51:54.040 don't go anywhere
00:51:54.660 do you think America's heading
00:51:56.100 in the right direction
00:51:57.040 unfortunately
00:51:58.240 the next generation
00:51:59.180 does not understand
00:52:00.040 the values
00:52:00.480 that have made America
00:52:01.220 the greatest nation
00:52:02.000 on earth
00:52:02.720 but PragerU

00:53:28.160 in Sirius XM
00:53:29.340 the best
00:53:30.400 it's
00:53:32.760 this montage
00:53:33.680 is fantastic
00:53:34.560 that's the same dance
00:53:36.520 I do when Mr. Brightside
00:53:38.000 comes on at a wedding
00:53:39.040 yeah
00:53:39.800 you know
00:53:40.960 that's a standard dance
00:53:42.980 I guess
00:53:43.320 those are his moves
00:53:44.160 well at some point
00:53:45.320 we all get to
00:53:45.960 we have one move
00:53:47.100 yeah
00:53:47.400 just the fist
00:53:48.160 alright that's enough of that
00:53:49.260 they played this by the way
00:53:50.840 as Trump came out
00:53:52.160 last night
00:53:52.620 as he came
00:53:53.220 what is the standard move
00:53:56.000 Josh
00:53:56.260 well everybody has one
00:53:57.880 I kind of have like a
00:53:59.160 Deion Sanders type skip
00:54:00.780 but that's all I can do
00:54:02.220 I've got one move
00:54:03.600 I need to stand up
00:54:04.300 and if you see it
00:54:05.120 you're like wow
00:54:05.720 that guy can dance
00:54:06.440 and that's it
00:54:07.020 really
00:54:07.340 and that's the only thing
00:54:08.440 I can do
00:54:08.900 can I tell you
00:54:09.360 I have a dear dear friend
00:54:10.560 who is a very successful
00:54:12.160 choreographer
00:54:12.760 and she teaches amazing dance
00:54:14.560 and I watch these young women
00:54:15.900 and I'm like
00:54:16.660 Joelle you gotta teach me
00:54:17.900 some of those moves
00:54:18.520 and this is all she gave me
00:54:20.540 is that like a serpentine
00:54:27.040 it's like a Guns N' Roses serpentine
00:54:29.820 it's all I get
00:54:31.860 Axl Rose
00:54:32.700 but to the right tune
00:54:33.640 you can really make that work
00:54:34.900 I mean it's a versatile move
00:54:36.480 if you're drunk enough
00:54:37.640 I look good
00:54:38.380 so that was Trump
00:54:41.440 all I could think
00:54:42.280 when I watched it
00:54:42.880 last night guys
00:54:43.440 was can you imagine
00:54:44.320 the Democratic staffers
00:54:45.360 trying to put together
00:54:46.000 something fun like that
00:54:46.820 for Biden
00:54:47.200 in front of an air convention
00:54:48.600 I watched that video earlier
00:54:50.480 of him getting on
00:54:51.560 Air Force One
00:54:52.120 I counted five steps
00:54:53.340 to get through the doorway
00:54:54.220 and then you've got
00:54:55.700 a guy dancing on stage
00:54:56.660 it couldn't be clearer
00:54:57.440 I know
00:54:58.420 Democrats are putting
00:54:59.500 the old Lang Syne
00:55:00.820 sort of montage
00:55:02.300 together
00:55:02.680 for this guy
00:55:03.380 ushering him
00:55:04.840 out the back door
00:55:05.620 hey it's been real
00:55:06.740 great experiences
00:55:08.080 in the past
00:55:08.660 well you know
00:55:09.380 it's like my
00:55:10.280 my old agent
00:55:11.860 who I've told
00:55:12.780 this story before
00:55:13.160 but she came to a speech
00:55:13.980 I gave it
00:55:14.460 which I bombed
00:55:15.220 I emceed
00:55:16.260 I wasn't speaching
00:55:17.120 I emceed
00:55:18.620 with Bob Costas
00:55:19.720 I tried to joke
00:55:20.820 and you can't joke
00:55:21.540 with Washington crowds
00:55:22.400 anyway she comes up
00:55:23.580 to me at the end
00:55:23.980 and I'm like
00:55:24.900 it didn't seem to go
00:55:26.320 very well
00:55:26.960 and she goes
00:55:27.740 onward
00:55:29.360 that needs to be
00:55:34.080 their theme
00:55:34.540 that should be
00:55:35.660 the theme
00:55:36.000 of the damn convention
00:55:36.820 I like how she
00:55:37.940 prefaced it with
00:55:38.620 former agent
00:55:39.460 it's a whole other story
00:55:44.100 at least have to
00:55:46.100 pump my tires
00:55:46.760 a little bit
00:55:47.620 so we gotta talk
00:55:49.280 about Joe Biden
00:55:50.000 because in the wake
00:55:51.840 of Saturday's
00:55:52.800 huge news
00:55:54.040 with President Trump
00:55:55.120 some important news
00:55:56.360 got lost
00:55:57.020 and namely
00:55:57.640 President Biden
00:55:58.820 was having a meltdown
00:55:59.980 on internal calls
00:56:02.280 between Democrats
00:56:03.340 like with fellow Democrats
00:56:04.800 and hold on
00:56:06.320 I thought I heard
00:56:06.860 do I
00:56:07.220 yes I do
00:56:07.720 okay
00:56:08.480 so first there was
00:56:09.480 a report
00:56:09.940 that Democrats
00:56:11.880 were talking to him
00:56:12.480 about these are bad polls
00:56:13.740 for you Mr. President
00:56:14.580 and he was absolutely
00:56:15.940 yelling at them
00:56:17.240 and they said
00:56:18.940 that he was
00:56:19.780 the debate
00:56:20.760 Joe Biden
00:56:21.520 hold on
00:56:22.620 oh god
00:56:23.140 wait I've gotta find it
00:56:24.140 he was like doing
00:56:25.460 the get off my lawn
00:56:26.580 routine
00:56:26.820 if my team finds
00:56:28.780 this before I do
00:56:29.420 tell me what pages
00:56:30.140 it's on
00:56:30.400 because there's
00:56:30.760 so many good things
00:56:31.920 but he started
00:56:33.600 yelling at them
00:56:34.480 and was like
00:56:36.180 bullying
00:56:36.820 and the Democrats
00:56:37.740 were not responding
00:56:38.520 well to it
00:56:39.120 and congressional
00:56:39.960 progressives
00:56:40.540 like couldn't believe
00:56:42.320 like his behavior
00:56:43.480 is this the
00:56:44.060 bronze star thing
00:56:44.980 no I'm getting
00:56:45.680 to that too
00:56:46.240 oh shit
00:56:47.420 my team will
00:56:48.180 get it to me
00:56:48.940 I was in the AM update
00:56:50.000 wait is it
00:56:50.680 is it just
00:56:51.240 is the AM update
00:56:52.540 just the bronze star one
00:56:53.720 yeah okay
00:56:54.440 alright so we'll get
00:56:55.320 to the bronze star
00:56:55.880 and then I'll backfill
00:56:57.280 on that other one
00:56:57.760 because I want you
00:56:58.200 to know what I'm
00:56:58.540 talking about
00:56:58.940 so on this
00:56:59.940 rambling call
00:57:00.620 per puck news
00:57:02.280 there were
00:57:04.000 moderate
00:57:04.760 not progressive
00:57:05.660 congressional Democrats
00:57:06.580 on
00:57:06.800 and they said
00:57:07.420 it was even worse
00:57:07.960 than the debate
00:57:08.340 yes this is it
00:57:09.000 okay
00:57:09.200 it was less than an hour
00:57:10.640 before the assassination
00:57:11.400 attempt
00:57:11.820 which is why
00:57:12.280 it didn't make news
00:57:13.080 one person on the call
00:57:14.260 the call was even worse
00:57:15.340 than the debate
00:57:15.900 he was rambling
00:57:16.880 he would start an answer
00:57:17.920 then lose his train of thought
00:57:19.420 then would just say
00:57:20.460 whatever
00:57:20.920 we've seen
00:57:22.380 anyway
00:57:23.040 anyway
00:57:23.700 that's his new crutch
00:57:24.600 yeah
00:57:24.980 I've lost a ton of respect
00:57:26.220 for him
00:57:26.640 had the assassination attempt
00:57:28.400 another one said
00:57:29.100 not occurred an hour later
00:57:30.840 I think 50 people
00:57:32.400 on that zoom
00:57:33.080 were ready to come out
00:57:33.920 publicly against him
00:57:34.920 and then there was
00:57:36.140 this notable exchange
00:57:36.880 with representative
00:57:37.480 Jason Crowe
00:57:38.240 democrat from Colorado
00:57:39.160 who received a bronze star
00:57:41.040 as an army ranger
00:57:41.940 fighting for us
00:57:42.740 in Iraq
00:57:43.200 and here's that exchange
00:57:45.440 okay
00:57:45.840 he writes
00:57:47.240 the reporting from Puck
00:57:48.960 is as follows
00:57:50.780 the Biden campaign
00:57:51.600 did not dispute
00:57:52.320 this next part
00:57:52.880 about Crowe
00:57:53.540 and his bronze star
00:57:54.320 in a video
00:57:55.340 of the zoom
00:57:56.120 that I was able to view
00:57:57.580 writes the reporter
00:57:58.620 you can hear Biden
00:57:59.620 chastising Crowe
00:58:00.760 who asked about
00:58:01.540 the importance
00:58:02.040 of national security
00:58:02.800 to voters
00:58:03.280 first of all
00:58:04.260 I think you're dead wrong
00:58:05.160 on national security
00:58:06.060 the president says
00:58:06.680 you have to imagine
00:58:07.220 it much more slow
00:58:08.120 and slurry
00:58:08.940 the emotion at times
00:58:11.040 garbling his words
00:58:12.440 you saw what happened
00:58:13.800 in terms of the meeting
00:58:15.180 we had with NATO
00:58:16.220 I put NATO together
00:58:17.960 name me a foreign leader
00:58:19.300 who thinks
00:58:19.740 I'm not the most effective leader
00:58:21.600 in the world
00:58:22.140 on foreign policy
00:58:23.060 tell me
00:58:23.880 tell me who the hell that is
00:58:25.400 tell me who put NATO
00:58:26.500 back together
00:58:27.060 tell me who enlarged NATO
00:58:28.520 tell me who did
00:58:29.460 the Pacific Basin
00:58:30.360 tell me who did something
00:58:31.600 that you've never done
00:58:33.080 with your bronze star
00:58:34.360 like my son
00:58:35.380 and I'm proud of your leadership
00:58:36.980 but guess what
00:58:37.700 what's happening
00:58:38.340 we've got Korea
00:58:39.480 and Japan working together
00:58:40.520 I put a coos together
00:58:41.920 anyway
00:58:42.560 anyway
00:58:43.620 things are in chaos
00:58:45.780 and I'm bringing
00:58:46.780 some order to it
00:58:47.660 and again
00:58:48.120 find me a world leader
00:58:49.180 who's an ally of ours
00:58:50.360 who doesn't think
00:58:50.940 I'm the most respected
00:58:52.560 person they've ever
00:58:53.860 response from Crowe
00:58:55.900 it's not breaking through
00:58:57.860 Mr. President
00:58:58.740 to our voters
00:59:00.160 you ought to talk about it
00:59:02.120 the reenactment
00:59:04.620 on national security
00:59:10.220 nobody's been a better
00:59:11.780 president than I've been
00:59:12.960 name me one
00:59:14.100 name me one
00:59:15.460 so I don't want to hear
00:59:16.800 that crap
00:59:17.520 now go get in the
00:59:19.700 overflow room
00:59:20.520 number one
00:59:25.420 we need to have Megan
00:59:26.420 do like a dramatic
00:59:27.500 radio theater reading
00:59:28.720 of this entire
00:59:29.940 zoom call
00:59:30.840 yes
00:59:31.220 I'll do it
00:59:32.600 also if the reporter's
00:59:35.120 able to get their hands
00:59:36.460 on the video
00:59:37.020 why aren't we seeing the video
00:59:38.380 yeah where is the video
00:59:39.180 where is the video
00:59:40.000 I mean we know
00:59:40.820 her video must be a disaster
00:59:42.540 which we're still waiting
00:59:43.500 to see
00:59:43.860 we've got the transcript
00:59:45.060 and you did an admirable
00:59:46.780 job of reenacting it
00:59:48.220 but I want to actually
00:59:49.480 see the video
00:59:50.360 where everything
00:59:51.680 that President Trump
00:59:52.860 has been accused of
00:59:53.780 is that he's a megalomaniac
00:59:55.140 this guy says
00:59:55.720 everyone in the world
00:59:57.040 knows I'm the best
00:59:57.880 they know I'm the best
00:59:58.760 what have you done
00:59:59.220 with your bronze star
00:59:59.900 that's crazy
01:00:01.080 he just attacked someone
01:00:02.080 is that suckers and losers
01:00:03.280 is that suckers and losers
01:00:04.380 there you go
01:00:04.840 it does like it
01:00:05.460 and I do want to see
01:00:06.960 the video
01:00:07.340 because you just know
01:00:08.360 as he's gone downhill
01:00:10.040 Biden has this new
01:00:11.500 like sort of pain
01:00:12.440 look in his face
01:00:13.460 at all times
01:00:13.840 mouth agape
01:00:14.680 well it's like
01:00:15.300 he stretched a balloon
01:00:16.480 over a skeleton
01:00:17.220 it's just horrible
01:00:17.740 I mean it's
01:00:18.860 there's an image
01:00:19.800 it kind of is though
01:00:21.120 right
01:00:21.280 it's just it's tough
01:00:22.540 also just speaking
01:00:23.720 on behalf of all Republicans
01:00:24.900 let's keep
01:00:25.460 let's bury the video
01:00:26.320 get that thing in
01:00:27.220 let's not talk about it
01:00:28.920 anymore
01:00:29.140 we're all set
01:00:29.660 nothing to hasten
01:00:31.340 his departure
01:00:31.900 we're all set
01:00:32.620 he doesn't sound
01:00:34.000 like the kind of guy
01:00:34.700 who's interested
01:00:35.300 in going anywhere
01:00:36.060 I mean it seems like
01:00:37.500 he's digging in
01:00:38.380 and digging in
01:00:39.100 every single day
01:00:40.040 it doesn't matter
01:00:40.580 who's talking
01:00:41.140 so my team
01:00:41.880 cued this video up
01:00:42.760 I haven't seen it
01:00:43.540 but they said
01:00:43.920 this just came in
01:00:44.500 from an interview
01:00:44.980 he gave to BET
01:00:45.980 suggesting maybe
01:00:47.980 there's a glimmer
01:00:50.160 of
01:00:50.800 well let's
01:00:51.620 let's listen
01:00:52.160 if there had
01:00:54.240 some medical condition
01:00:55.280 that emerged
01:00:55.860 if somebody
01:00:56.400 if the doctors
01:00:57.200 came to me
01:00:57.640 and said
01:00:57.780 you got this problem
01:00:58.640 that problem
01:00:59.220 but I made a serious
01:01:01.080 mistake
01:01:01.640 in the whole debate
01:01:04.240 and uh
01:01:05.680 and look
01:01:07.320 when I originally ran
01:01:08.320 you may remember it
01:01:09.040 I said I was going
01:01:09.780 to be a transitional
01:01:10.420 candidate
01:01:11.000 and I thought
01:01:12.340 that I'd be able
01:01:12.940 to move from this
01:01:13.960 just pass it on
01:01:14.860 to someone else
01:01:15.560 but I didn't anticipate
01:01:17.780 things getting
01:01:18.560 so so so
01:01:20.180 divided
01:01:21.180 and quite frankly
01:01:22.760 I think
01:01:23.480 the only thing
01:01:25.520 age brings
01:01:26.080 is a little bit
01:01:26.460 of wisdom
01:01:26.820 and I think
01:01:28.080 I've demonstrated
01:01:28.800 that I know
01:01:29.420 how to get things
01:01:30.840 done
01:01:31.180 for the country
01:01:32.260 in spite of the fact
01:01:33.920 that we couldn't
01:01:34.580 get it done
01:01:35.160 but there's more to do
01:01:36.540 and I'm reluctant
01:01:37.280 to walk away from that
01:01:38.280 so you heard
01:01:39.980 at the top though
01:01:40.680 if my team
01:01:41.780 came to me
01:01:42.160 with a medical
01:01:42.760 condition
01:01:43.340 is that
01:01:44.800 that's new
01:01:45.260 the whole thing
01:01:46.460 makes me super sad
01:01:47.320 because
01:01:48.000 like look
01:01:48.680 we don't know
01:01:49.260 what medical
01:01:49.840 can do
01:01:50.180 there's all kinds
01:01:50.620 of speculation
01:01:51.100 out there
01:01:51.760 but most of us
01:01:52.880 know what this looks
01:01:53.460 it's just old age
01:01:54.080 right
01:01:54.720 I mean we've had
01:01:55.240 parents
01:01:55.580 we've had great
01:01:56.020 parents
01:01:56.540 at best
01:01:56.960 we watch this
01:01:58.040 every single person
01:01:58.920 listening to this show
01:02:00.080 watching this show
01:02:00.940 has experienced this
01:02:01.980 at some level
01:02:02.580 it's like
01:02:04.060 there's something
01:02:04.660 beyond the partisanship
01:02:05.660 that just bothers me
01:02:06.560 about Democrats
01:02:07.960 now having to frame
01:02:09.040 all this thing
01:02:09.660 of well I've made
01:02:10.740 a serious mistake
01:02:11.800 and I have
01:02:12.460 you know
01:02:13.040 I screwed this up
01:02:14.080 no Joe
01:02:14.900 you're just really old
01:02:16.240 you know
01:02:17.180 and it's sad
01:02:18.100 that there isn't
01:02:18.680 anybody around him
01:02:19.440 to say like
01:02:19.980 look this isn't
01:02:20.760 great job
01:02:21.620 you know
01:02:22.120 if you're a Democrat
01:02:22.600 you think he's done
01:02:23.520 a great job
01:02:24.060 but like let's
01:02:25.080 let's move on
01:02:25.760 because this is
01:02:26.220 you're embarrassing
01:02:26.780 someone with influence
01:02:27.580 someone who loves him
01:02:28.620 and who he loves
01:02:29.180 you can't unpack
01:02:30.260 the toothpaste
01:02:30.900 is not going back
01:02:32.140 into that tube
01:02:33.180 tomorrow will be
01:02:34.640 worse than the day before
01:02:35.620 the day after that
01:02:37.060 will be worse
01:02:37.720 than that day
01:02:38.400 it's just
01:02:39.260 it's progression
01:02:40.500 it's life
01:02:41.120 we all know it
01:02:42.180 but apparently
01:02:42.640 they're trying to like
01:02:43.480 push the sun
01:02:44.420 back up in the sky
01:02:45.320 for one more day
01:02:46.220 and it just doesn't work
01:02:47.080 but it does feel like
01:02:48.200 he's trying to give himself
01:02:49.480 a little bit of an escape hatch
01:02:50.740 and you remember
01:02:51.520 the reporting last week
01:02:52.980 after the debate
01:02:53.900 Jill Biden
01:02:55.060 being like
01:02:56.860 that can't be
01:02:57.780 his swan song
01:02:58.620 and it feels like
01:03:00.160 they're sort of
01:03:01.300 in it still
01:03:02.360 to fight for his legacy
01:03:03.880 like I'm the greatest
01:03:04.620 I'm the greatest
01:03:05.280 the greatest
01:03:05.700 the greatest
01:03:06.080 right more than
01:03:06.780 the election itself
01:03:07.900 and that's the disconnect
01:03:09.520 between rank and file Democrats
01:03:10.860 and sort of the Biden family
01:03:13.120 I think
01:03:13.700 well it's not just rank and file Democrats
01:03:15.420 who have skin in the game here
01:03:16.440 unsaid in all of this
01:03:18.400 Democrat backdrop
01:03:19.260 are the 2028 candidates
01:03:20.960 the Gretchen Whitmers
01:03:21.860 the Gavin Newsom
01:03:22.660 the Westmoors of the world
01:03:23.900 who would be perfectly comfortable
01:03:25.560 with Donald Trump
01:03:27.260 beating Joe Biden
01:03:28.620 and then they start their rise
01:03:30.300 in 2028
01:03:31.380 I mean they don't
01:03:32.440 they don't care
01:03:33.000 oh they're so cynical
01:03:33.960 they'll be willing to do
01:03:35.600 whatever they need
01:03:36.220 and what actually happens
01:03:38.060 you know
01:03:38.700 to the Democrats
01:03:39.640 and their nominations
01:03:40.480 the second greatest mystery
01:03:41.800 that we've all followed
01:03:42.720 this entire year
01:03:43.620 it is the second greatest mystery
01:03:45.300 and I gotta tell you
01:03:47.280 I don't know
01:03:48.380 what's gonna happen
01:03:49.000 Democrats don't know
01:03:49.900 what's gonna happen
01:03:50.560 which is the best part about it
01:03:52.060 yeah they don't have a plan
01:03:53.260 I know that
01:03:53.660 how about this
01:03:54.180 name me a foreign leader
01:03:55.280 who thinks
01:03:55.680 I'm not the most effective leader
01:03:57.860 in the world
01:03:58.900 on foreign policy
01:04:00.180 well that Italian gal
01:04:01.380 didn't seem too
01:04:02.120 I saw her face
01:04:06.700 she didn't look like
01:04:07.400 she was
01:04:07.700 I mean
01:04:08.740 you know
01:04:09.420 I feel like
01:04:10.240 if we weren't funding Zelensky
01:04:12.320 to the tune of
01:04:13.080 tens of billions
01:04:13.820 every other month
01:04:14.640 he might have an issue
01:04:15.820 because I think
01:04:16.340 he might not have
01:04:16.920 gotten invaded
01:04:17.600 if it hadn't been for you
01:04:19.140 or called President Putin
01:04:19.840 well yeah
01:04:21.260 it's a very tough situation
01:04:22.480 around the world
01:04:22.900 if you're trying to say
01:04:23.680 that I'm the most respected leader
01:04:25.580 and interview after interview
01:04:28.220 shows you don't know
01:04:29.260 what you're talking about
01:04:30.340 your own country
01:04:31.360 because the entire world
01:04:32.220 is watching
01:04:32.720 everyone is seeing
01:04:34.040 not just how terrible job
01:04:36.020 Biden's doing
01:04:36.500 but the comparison
01:04:37.260 they know an election's coming
01:04:38.460 they see this moment
01:04:39.940 of strength
01:04:40.560 resilience and hope
01:04:41.540 when Donald Trump
01:04:42.160 raises his fist
01:04:42.920 and meanwhile
01:04:43.920 you have someone clearly
01:04:45.280 fighting only for themselves
01:04:46.940 to hold their power
01:04:48.260 for themselves
01:04:48.900 and how he said
01:04:49.980 that I would step aside
01:04:50.960 if a doctor told me to
01:04:52.440 I think the problem
01:04:53.740 is a doctor
01:04:54.240 is telling him
01:04:55.020 to stay in
01:04:55.560 and that's Dr. Jill Biden
01:04:56.660 he's not the best doctor
01:04:59.140 to be given that advice
01:05:00.060 alright so now
01:05:03.720 he's getting
01:05:04.260 really desperate
01:05:05.240 because you saw
01:05:05.840 the news yesterday
01:05:06.880 that now
01:05:07.640 he's soon going
01:05:08.720 to be announcing
01:05:09.300 proposed big changes
01:05:11.320 to the U.S. Supreme Court
01:05:13.200 and while it's not
01:05:14.660 packing the court
01:05:15.540 yet
01:05:15.980 yet
01:05:16.760 with additional seats
01:05:18.240 it's imposing
01:05:19.780 term limits
01:05:20.720 and also
01:05:22.820 mandating ethical rules
01:05:24.380 which is like
01:05:25.000 it's a violation
01:05:25.940 of the separation of powers
01:05:26.760 that's not going to happen
01:05:28.080 he has no
01:05:29.160 constitutional authority
01:05:30.260 to do any of it
01:05:31.020 it's all just nonsense
01:05:32.580 street talk
01:05:33.680 is what we talked about
01:05:34.480 when I was a kid
01:05:35.120 it's like somebody
01:05:36.020 who has absolutely no idea
01:05:37.180 the way things work
01:05:38.520 and they just talk
01:05:39.160 as though they do
01:05:40.020 there's no chance
01:05:41.220 that you could ever do that
01:05:42.220 now if Democrats
01:05:43.220 had a codlock on government
01:05:44.340 like if Joe Biden
01:05:45.400 got re-elected
01:05:46.280 Democrats took the House
01:05:47.480 and Democrats somehow
01:05:48.780 added to a majority
01:05:49.660 in the Senate
01:05:50.180 that is a real thing
01:05:51.200 all of those people
01:05:51.880 would do radical
01:05:52.680 radical things
01:05:54.060 he's going to say
01:05:55.140 we need a constitutional
01:05:56.560 amendment
01:05:57.400 that imposes
01:05:59.120 term limits
01:06:00.020 on the Supreme Court
01:06:00.940 do you know
01:06:02.440 what you have to do
01:06:03.380 to get a constitutional
01:06:04.420 amendment
01:06:04.860 you gotta go find
01:06:05.400 36 states for starters
01:06:06.760 right
01:06:07.260 three-fourths of the states
01:06:09.060 are gonna get behind that
01:06:10.320 so here's the thing
01:06:11.200 I think it's interesting
01:06:12.100 you brought up that
01:06:12.900 you know
01:06:13.240 this isn't packing
01:06:14.400 the court yet
01:06:15.220 if I had to
01:06:16.120 try to understand
01:06:17.160 what thinking
01:06:17.760 his team has behind him
01:06:18.720 because he doesn't know
01:06:19.360 this policy
01:06:19.860 it's all the leftists
01:06:20.940 who are calling
01:06:21.320 the shots there
01:06:21.860 they want to try
01:06:23.060 to pass a bill
01:06:23.700 that says
01:06:24.200 oh well
01:06:24.780 you know
01:06:25.140 all of a sudden
01:06:25.760 Congress
01:06:26.720 can impose rules
01:06:28.640 over the Supreme Court
01:06:29.560 they'll get to the Supreme Court
01:06:30.680 they'll say
01:06:30.960 this is unconstitutional
01:06:31.820 and say
01:06:32.080 wow
01:06:32.800 the Supreme Court
01:06:33.760 they're out of pocket
01:06:35.000 I'm gonna have to pack
01:06:35.880 the court
01:06:36.200 this is proof
01:06:36.760 everybody
01:06:37.120 it is
01:06:38.300 but it's also
01:06:38.880 a total political move
01:06:40.540 dealing with
01:06:41.740 and you see this
01:06:42.300 over the last two months
01:06:43.200 when you're dealing
01:06:43.540 with student loans
01:06:44.240 you're dealing with
01:06:44.980 all these sort of
01:06:45.500 fringe issues
01:06:46.280 that the mainstream
01:06:47.200 part of the electorate
01:06:48.360 is like
01:06:48.560 what the hell
01:06:48.860 are you doing here
01:06:49.720 the problem for Joe Biden
01:06:51.200 is his numbers
01:06:52.020 are like 43
01:06:52.840 right
01:06:53.680 I mean it's just
01:06:54.340 dead low
01:06:55.000 for somebody on the ballot
01:06:56.320 as an incumbent president
01:06:57.360 and the biggest missing gap
01:06:59.440 in the coalition
01:07:00.280 that he put together
01:07:01.220 in 2020
01:07:01.820 is the progressive left
01:07:03.340 it's the young
01:07:04.500 progressive left
01:07:05.200 they're just totally
01:07:05.820 unenthused
01:07:06.420 and so all of these
01:07:07.560 little moves
01:07:08.380 are just
01:07:08.960 they're trying to
01:07:09.640 pull every trigger
01:07:10.700 they can to figure out
01:07:11.940 if there is a way
01:07:12.960 to get them
01:07:13.500 back on board
01:07:14.500 in the way they were
01:07:15.480 in 2020
01:07:16.040 and it's
01:07:16.920 the problem is
01:07:18.260 it's mutually exclusive
01:07:19.300 right
01:07:20.020 the majority making
01:07:21.400 the people that get you
01:07:22.220 to 270 electoral votes
01:07:23.980 are the ones in the middle
01:07:25.300 looking at that stuff
01:07:26.440 and being like
01:07:26.860 what the hell is this
01:07:28.280 and every day
01:07:29.140 I mean he's like
01:07:29.840 he's gonna cap rents
01:07:31.980 on any apartment
01:07:34.560 owned by a corporate landlord
01:07:36.760 making it up
01:07:38.120 and apparently he misspoke
01:07:39.720 and he was like
01:07:40.400 we're gonna cap the rents
01:07:42.380 and his cockamamie policy
01:07:45.100 would cap them
01:07:45.840 at no more than
01:07:46.340 5% increase in a year
01:07:48.020 and he said
01:07:49.160 to the group
01:07:49.960 he's like
01:07:50.300 I'm gonna cap it
01:07:51.120 at $55
01:07:52.100 he's like
01:07:55.200 back in my day
01:07:56.640 you could buy a house
01:07:57.320 for that much
01:07:57.920 that's amazing
01:07:58.880 I want it
01:08:00.440 I'm in
01:08:02.680 it's like
01:08:04.220 that's the man
01:08:05.020 who has the nuclear codes
01:08:06.080 it's terrifying
01:08:07.220 you know you talk
01:08:07.640 about the old age
01:08:08.300 my mom
01:08:09.160 I may have told
01:08:09.900 this story
01:08:10.200 but she's so funny
01:08:11.740 my mom's 83 this month
01:08:12.980 and she's having
01:08:14.480 some of these name
01:08:15.340 and memory issues
01:08:16.100 she's not like Biden
01:08:17.000 but she's never been
01:08:18.820 particularly good on names
01:08:19.860 and for a while there
01:08:21.520 we had a
01:08:22.560 long time housekeeper
01:08:24.020 in our family
01:08:24.500 who we absolutely loved
01:08:25.320 Carla
01:08:25.740 and for a while there
01:08:27.540 we had a temporary babysitter
01:08:28.620 whose name was Kiana
01:08:29.500 and my mom could not
01:08:30.940 remember their names
01:08:31.740 at all
01:08:32.000 and Carla was with us
01:08:32.980 for over a decade
01:08:33.680 my mom could not
01:08:35.000 she can't remember
01:08:35.540 anybody's name
01:08:36.180 and so one day
01:08:38.220 our
01:08:39.140 okay
01:08:41.540 one day
01:08:42.600 she was there
01:08:44.000 and she kept calling
01:08:44.940 Kiana
01:08:45.480 Jenna
01:08:46.020 Jenna
01:08:46.780 Jenna
01:08:47.420 Jenna
01:08:47.880 Jenna
01:08:48.200 and I'm like
01:08:48.680 mom
01:08:49.000 it's Kiana
01:08:50.180 it's Kiana
01:08:50.700 it's Kiana
01:08:51.000 so finally Kiana's
01:08:52.080 leaving one day
01:08:52.740 and my mom goes
01:08:54.020 bye Kiana
01:08:55.160 I'm like
01:08:55.940 ma
01:08:56.360 you got it
01:08:57.460 how'd you get it
01:08:58.100 and she goes
01:08:58.480 Carmen helped me
01:08:59.920 that is so good
01:09:10.000 so my point is
01:09:11.320 she's Joe Biden's
01:09:13.060 contemporary
01:09:13.740 she doesn't have
01:09:15.140 the nuclear code
01:09:15.840 so it's funny
01:09:16.560 and she can make fun
01:09:17.520 of herself
01:09:17.920 she's very good
01:09:18.700 humored about it
01:09:19.520 she'll forget a word
01:09:20.780 here or there
01:09:21.320 and she'll say
01:09:21.660 help me with my word
01:09:22.540 he just did that
01:09:23.960 the other day
01:09:24.400 what was the word
01:09:24.920 I'm looking for
01:09:25.400 somebody who served
01:09:26.160 in Afghanistan
01:09:26.680 or whatever
01:09:27.200 yeah veteran
01:09:28.780 veteran
01:09:29.400 I mean
01:09:30.320 that's not one
01:09:31.200 that escapes
01:09:31.760 a president
01:09:32.320 no
01:09:32.820 it's just not
01:09:34.020 alright let me
01:09:34.540 shift gears
01:09:34.940 before you guys
01:09:36.340 go and ask you
01:09:37.080 quickly about
01:09:37.700 this
01:09:38.360 the investigation
01:09:40.040 into the Trump
01:09:40.820 assassination attempt
01:09:42.220 do we trust
01:09:43.640 anybody who's
01:09:44.980 investigating
01:09:45.480 and what do you
01:09:47.440 guys make
01:09:47.840 because we played
01:09:48.920 the lunacy
01:09:49.460 on the left
01:09:50.780 now I know
01:09:51.880 that many people
01:09:52.400 on the right
01:09:52.800 think this is
01:09:53.400 all a government
01:09:53.860 plan to
01:09:54.600 assassinate
01:09:55.300 Donald Trump
01:09:56.040 and that is
01:09:57.420 also deemed
01:09:59.040 a conspiracy
01:09:59.520 theory
01:09:59.920 I don't
01:10:01.060 personally believe
01:10:01.800 that
01:10:02.080 I don't think
01:10:02.880 our government
01:10:03.260 tried to take
01:10:04.000 out the former
01:10:05.060 president
01:10:05.420 but I do think
01:10:06.580 there's enough
01:10:06.980 problems here
01:10:07.680 that we actually
01:10:08.480 do need these
01:10:09.020 hearings
01:10:09.300 because every day
01:10:11.200 we're hearing
01:10:12.260 more and more
01:10:13.160 disturbing things
01:10:14.000 Dan Bongino
01:10:14.700 went on Don
01:10:15.420 Jr.'s podcast
01:10:16.500 Tucker was also
01:10:17.740 there was an
01:10:18.500 explosive exchange
01:10:19.480 and listen to
01:10:21.100 Dan Bongino
01:10:22.600 is talking here
01:10:23.180 about how
01:10:23.700 they had staffed
01:10:25.180 that building
01:10:26.000 at which the
01:10:27.060 shooter got
01:10:27.460 on the roof
01:10:27.900 they had
01:10:28.600 staffed
01:10:29.040 somebody to
01:10:29.500 go there
01:10:29.840 and be on
01:10:30.160 the roof
01:10:30.480 and that
01:10:32.360 while the
01:10:32.800 head of the
01:10:33.200 secret service
01:10:33.600 now is saying
01:10:34.440 oh it has
01:10:35.380 sloped roof
01:10:36.040 so we didn't
01:10:36.960 put anybody up
01:10:37.580 there we just
01:10:37.940 put him in
01:10:38.380 the building
01:10:38.860 he's saying
01:10:40.000 that's bullshit
01:10:41.140 which makes
01:10:41.940 sense because
01:10:42.380 it sounds like
01:10:43.080 bullshit
01:10:43.420 here's Dan
01:10:44.640 I was just
01:10:46.200 showing Tucker
01:10:46.780 some material
01:10:48.180 from an
01:10:49.160 unimpeachable
01:10:51.040 source let's
01:10:51.760 just say on
01:10:52.300 the matter
01:10:52.680 that post
01:10:54.540 according to
01:10:55.080 my source
01:10:55.720 that roof
01:10:56.500 was supposed
01:10:57.280 to be a
01:10:57.920 police post
01:10:58.840 it was supposed
01:10:59.760 to be someone
01:11:00.560 there
01:11:00.940 they're now
01:11:01.920 making up
01:11:02.440 excuses saying
01:11:03.540 the pitch
01:11:04.080 of the roof
01:11:04.620 my source
01:11:05.920 says to me
01:11:06.320 no one knows
01:11:07.440 why the post
01:11:07.960 didn't show up
01:11:08.660 so that's a
01:11:09.860 nonsense story
01:11:10.560 they're putting
01:11:10.880 out in the media
01:11:11.380 and I was also
01:11:12.080 told that the
01:11:13.380 secret service
01:11:13.900 director has been
01:11:14.580 giving instructions
01:11:15.320 from the
01:11:15.680 administration
01:11:16.160 and the DHS
01:11:16.940 secretary
01:11:17.460 you want to
01:11:18.260 keep your job
01:11:18.920 you'll keep your
01:11:19.580 mouth shut
01:11:20.000 about this
01:11:20.500 they're not
01:11:21.100 putting that out
01:11:21.640 there but if
01:11:22.140 you get those
01:11:22.660 site post logs
01:11:23.540 and those
01:11:24.120 police instructions
01:11:24.920 and there was
01:11:25.380 a post on there
01:11:25.960 and they didn't
01:11:26.320 show up and no
01:11:26.940 one checked
01:11:27.360 someone could
01:11:28.440 have got your
01:11:28.780 dad killed
01:11:29.320 within millimeters
01:11:30.160 yeah I mean I
01:11:32.200 think it's
01:11:32.520 particularly meaningful
01:11:33.240 from Dan
01:11:33.720 Bongino who of
01:11:34.660 course had a
01:11:35.600 career in the
01:11:36.060 secret service
01:11:36.620 before he became
01:11:37.560 famous media guy
01:11:38.720 and there are a
01:11:40.240 lot of questions
01:11:40.980 and I think that
01:11:42.260 when you when you
01:11:44.360 have a government
01:11:45.600 that's staffed with
01:11:46.440 people who are
01:11:47.140 willing to publicly
01:11:48.180 post memes about
01:11:49.700 the death of
01:11:50.800 president trump
01:11:51.560 and make light of
01:11:52.420 it then people
01:11:53.460 are going to
01:11:54.020 have questions
01:11:54.700 they're going to
01:11:55.540 have suspicions
01:11:56.420 and it is up to
01:11:57.700 the government to
01:11:58.740 show people that
01:11:59.600 that's not what
01:12:00.220 happened it's it's
01:12:01.200 incumbent upon them
01:12:02.120 really I mean if
01:12:03.020 you if you are going
01:12:03.660 to have lunatics
01:12:04.860 staffing these
01:12:06.220 organizations then
01:12:07.740 part of the
01:12:08.380 consequence of that
01:12:09.340 is you're going to
01:12:10.060 have to answer the
01:12:10.800 questions that people
01:12:11.680 have when they
01:12:12.180 don't understand
01:12:12.840 why we had
01:12:14.040 democratic congressmen
01:12:15.020 calling to strip
01:12:16.160 donald trump of his
01:12:17.180 secret service
01:12:17.760 protection exactly
01:12:18.500 yeah benny thompson
01:12:19.340 yeah why would you
01:12:20.540 do that unless you
01:12:21.180 have no problem
01:12:21.920 with him being in
01:12:22.480 danger exactly
01:12:23.240 yeah I think I
01:12:24.560 mean look you take
01:12:25.580 it at face value
01:12:26.400 obviously is a
01:12:27.540 manifest failure
01:12:28.460 obviously question
01:12:30.260 is why right and
01:12:31.780 we don't know the
01:12:32.240 answer to that yet
01:12:32.840 we have to figure it
01:12:33.660 out but there is no
01:12:34.520 planet that that is
01:12:36.260 not I mean just
01:12:37.280 look at you
01:12:37.640 everybody's seen the
01:12:38.220 pictures right you're
01:12:39.440 130 yards away on
01:12:41.080 an elevated surface
01:12:41.860 the only elevated
01:12:43.260 surface anywhere within
01:12:44.720 proximity of the stage
01:12:45.740 that's not something
01:12:46.440 you keep an eye on
01:12:47.180 right and they did
01:12:48.400 say I you know I
01:12:49.140 saw in the report
01:12:49.720 that it was supposed
01:12:50.360 to be staffed and
01:12:51.920 that there were
01:12:52.440 actually not just
01:12:53.740 local police as it
01:12:55.160 was first talked
01:12:55.840 about it was you
01:12:56.560 know there was
01:12:56.880 potentially secret
01:12:57.580 service there too
01:12:58.440 and so I wonder you
01:13:00.520 know when you see the
01:13:01.200 the video of the
01:13:03.040 sniper that ultimately
01:13:03.900 got the you know
01:13:05.060 the counter sniper
01:13:05.680 team that ultimately
01:13:06.280 got the the would-be
01:13:07.980 assassin there was a
01:13:09.740 hesitation there and I
01:13:11.040 wonder if they thought
01:13:12.460 well is this our guy
01:13:13.800 or is this not our guy
01:13:14.900 a CNN's reporting
01:13:16.000 John Miller they're
01:13:17.780 reporting over there
01:13:18.600 who does you know
01:13:19.420 national security and
01:13:20.420 and this type of
01:13:21.600 reporting was saying
01:13:22.840 that they actually
01:13:24.520 looked at each other
01:13:25.140 the sniper was looking
01:13:26.360 through his forgive me
01:13:28.600 I don't remember what
01:13:29.220 you call it scope yeah
01:13:30.480 and and range finder
01:13:32.960 there we go and that
01:13:34.120 that did you say that
01:13:34.900 and this the shooter was
01:13:36.380 looking through his
01:13:37.000 range finder at the
01:13:38.020 same time they were
01:13:39.040 looking at each other
01:13:40.020 chilling and I I think
01:13:42.080 what was happening on
01:13:43.080 the ground was they
01:13:44.340 had noticed this guy
01:13:45.140 he'd been deemed
01:13:45.700 suspicious they saw
01:13:46.560 that he had a range
01:13:47.160 finder but he didn't
01:13:48.020 have a gun and then
01:13:49.160 what they reported is
01:13:50.100 he left the secured
01:13:51.200 area and they let him
01:13:53.260 go out of their sight
01:13:54.560 like they were like
01:13:55.140 okay he's no longer
01:13:55.840 our problem he left
01:13:56.640 the secure area and I
01:13:58.300 mean one of the basic
01:13:59.200 problems here is why
01:14:00.740 was the secured area
01:14:01.840 so small yeah right
01:14:03.240 why wasn't that
01:14:04.420 building in the secured
01:14:05.520 area and why did you
01:14:06.480 then pretend that it
01:14:07.940 was nothing to worry
01:14:08.900 about and that local
01:14:10.220 law enforcement could
01:14:11.060 handle it and not you
01:14:13.140 know you'd had a
01:14:13.760 suspicious guy called
01:14:14.580 in at least 30 minutes
01:14:15.580 beforehand they're
01:14:16.500 saying potentially
01:14:17.480 longer than that
01:14:18.140 according to some
01:14:18.680 reports you have the
01:14:19.800 people jumping up and
01:14:20.660 down saying he's on
01:14:21.380 top of the roof right
01:14:22.240 there you have the one
01:14:23.580 cop who gets up who
01:14:24.920 sees him and then they
01:14:25.860 say he had to go back
01:14:26.920 down because you can't
01:14:27.660 grab your gun and hold
01:14:28.560 yourself up on a
01:14:29.200 rooftop with the other
01:14:29.960 hand that makes some
01:14:30.780 sense to me but why
01:14:32.240 was it just that guy
01:14:33.280 why you know why
01:14:34.280 wasn't there an
01:14:34.720 immediate radio to the
01:14:35.680 secret service of the
01:14:36.500 snake or up on the
01:14:37.280 roof knew where's the
01:14:38.400 comms yeah anyway do
01:14:40.440 you trust we're gonna
01:14:41.020 get to the bottom of
01:14:41.640 this or do you think
01:14:42.260 well i do think look
01:14:43.600 i think the house
01:14:44.620 oversight committee in
01:14:45.700 particular has done
01:14:46.500 some really good work
01:14:47.500 at getting to a whole
01:14:48.360 lot of things that the
01:14:49.060 biden administration
01:14:49.640 didn't want to talk
01:14:50.360 about over the last
01:14:50.980 couple years right we
01:14:51.960 wouldn't know anything
01:14:52.520 about all the llc's or
01:14:53.880 the chinese payments or
01:14:54.960 the ukrainian payments or
01:14:56.180 anything to do with
01:14:57.060 hunter biden at all
01:14:58.100 first of all he wouldn't
01:14:59.200 have been prosecuted
01:15:00.040 without all of that
01:15:01.360 coming out so i think
01:15:02.680 that jamie comer and
01:15:03.440 that committee is going
01:15:04.360 to do good work here
01:15:05.520 just like they've done
01:15:06.480 in the past and my
01:15:07.260 sense is getting to a
01:15:08.660 half answer isn't
01:15:10.080 going to be enough for
01:15:10.720 anybody yeah that's
01:15:11.480 right and in this
01:15:12.220 particular case the
01:15:12.920 biden administration
01:15:13.560 cannot look like they
01:15:14.680 want to slow roll it
01:15:15.540 there's no executive
01:15:16.400 privilege to assert like
01:15:18.920 it's all going to be
01:15:19.780 coming out unless it's
01:15:21.280 getting burned i don't
01:15:22.380 not just the whole thing
01:15:23.360 makes me feel
01:15:23.920 uncomfortable i just
01:15:24.760 it's just a tragic
01:15:25.460 situation why is the head
01:15:26.460 of the secret service
01:15:26.980 lying to us because she's
01:15:27.840 definitely lying about
01:15:28.420 that sloped roof there's
01:15:29.600 just it's obvious she
01:15:31.140 ain't good at her job i
01:15:32.320 know that i mean what i
01:15:33.700 am afraid of is that has
01:15:35.820 this been another example
01:15:37.220 of you know there's been
01:15:38.640 discussion of is this dei
01:15:39.940 policy that was put in
01:15:41.180 place and could that
01:15:42.240 have compromised the
01:15:43.380 integrity of the secret
01:15:44.800 service to be able to
01:15:45.800 execute the job of
01:15:46.920 protecting these people
01:15:48.040 clearly clearly there's a
01:15:50.940 problem if someone is
01:15:51.780 allowed to take that
01:15:52.720 shot yeah so it's clear
01:15:53.920 something needs to be
01:15:54.780 done about it yeah we
01:15:55.500 need like a 9-11 style
01:15:57.060 yes who did the
01:15:58.100 planning and i did the
01:15:59.220 perimeter i think the
01:16:00.100 communications thing is
01:16:01.140 going to be key because
01:16:01.880 remember after 9-11 we
01:16:02.980 realized there was a
01:16:03.940 lack of communication
01:16:04.740 between like the cia and
01:16:05.860 the fbi yeah for
01:16:06.780 example and i'm curious
01:16:08.200 if we're having that
01:16:08.880 same breakdown of
01:16:09.520 communication between
01:16:10.380 secret service and the
01:16:11.640 local you know police who
01:16:13.940 are sort of yeah well
01:16:15.420 if you're not if someone
01:16:16.560 didn't know if they
01:16:17.580 encountered this guy right
01:16:18.780 and they didn't know
01:16:19.880 like this guy's on the
01:16:22.360 roof you know you know
01:16:23.740 that like now if this
01:16:25.000 happened today they'd have
01:16:27.060 a much different reaction
01:16:27.820 i feel like they let their
01:16:28.660 guard down you know they
01:16:29.540 could very well have been
01:16:30.680 incompetence driven by the
01:16:33.020 guard was down they didn't
01:16:33.880 think anything would
01:16:34.440 happen they weren't taking
01:16:35.360 the threat seriously
01:16:36.100 enough all right i gotta
01:16:37.220 leave it there because i
01:16:38.060 have vivek ramaswamy in
01:16:39.840 there hey guys thanks so
01:16:41.280 much for being here such a
01:16:42.540 fun time together always i
01:16:44.700 found out during the break
01:16:45.420 why they have their
01:16:46.160 sunglasses on let's just
01:16:47.320 say the fellas have been
01:16:48.360 enjoying
01:16:48.980 some americans enjoy using
01:16:58.100 their credit cards because
01:16:59.300 it can be a hassle-free and
01:17:00.840 secure way to pay but our
01:17:02.380 sponsor the american
01:17:03.580 payments coalition says that
01:17:04.940 some dc politicians want to
01:17:07.100 change that with the durbin
01:17:08.700 marshall credit card bill
01:17:09.820 they say the bill lets
01:17:11.260 corporate mega stores pick
01:17:12.860 how your credit card is
01:17:14.100 processed allowing them to
01:17:15.900 use untested payment
01:17:17.180 networks that jeopardize
01:17:18.860 your data security and
01:17:20.200 rewards they say corporate
01:17:22.040 mega stores will make more
01:17:23.320 money and you will end up

01:18:33.460 this time last year i was a
01:18:38.640 candidate for u.s president and i'm
01:18:40.380 proud to say that i achieved the
01:18:42.740 impossible which is that most of you
01:18:45.440 actually know how to say my name by
01:18:47.520 now so so thank you for that
01:18:50.080 vivek ramaswamy welcome back to the
01:18:53.140 megan kelly show that was former
01:18:54.340 2024 presidential candidate vivek
01:18:56.340 ramaswamy who took the stage last
01:18:58.260 night and killed he did so well jokes
01:19:01.180 aside he also came out swinging on
01:19:03.420 the topic of immigration sharing how
01:19:05.760 his personal story shaped his view and
01:19:08.100 his solution to fixing the crime
01:19:09.720 stemming from the border crisis in
01:19:11.660 our country our message to every legal
01:19:16.480 immigrant in this country is this you're
01:19:20.380 like my parents you deserve the opportunity
01:19:23.300 to secure a better life for your children
01:19:25.300 in america but our message to illegal immigrants
01:19:29.140 is also this we will return you to your country of origin not because you're all bad
01:19:35.380 people but because you broke the law and the united states of america was founded
01:19:40.880 on the rule of law
01:19:42.600 powerful words but over on cnn former biden white house communications director kate beddingfield
01:19:55.320 had this tone deaf reaction
01:19:57.720 there was a lot in there about rule of law there was this like constant hammering of rule of law and you know he talked about the you know the border and if you break the law we're sending back rule of law rule of law i don't that is an incredibly rich message coming from a party that has spent the last year you know essentially like tearing down the justice system in this country saying it's politicized saying you know trump shouldn't be trump should be above the law has really been their argument so i think there is a fundamental plus the insurrection
01:19:59.720 plus the insurrection
01:20:06.720 so i actually think there's a fundamental tension there in that argument so i think there's a fundamental tension there in that argument
01:20:16.720 or that's critical about the rule of law there was a constant hammering of rule of law and you know he talked about the border and if you break the law we're sending back rule of law rule of law i don't that is an incredibly rich message coming from a party that has spent the last year you know essentially like tearing down the justice system in this country saying it's politicized saying you know trump should be trump should be above the law has really been their argument so i think the
01:20:27.720 fundamental tension there in that argument uh that's it's it's not particularly well delivered
01:20:32.920 from the vic there but also i think it's going to be a problem for republicans if that's where
01:20:36.720 they're hanging their hat you think joining me now vivek ramaswamy former 2024 presidential
01:20:41.960 candidate and host of the truth podcast vivek welcome back good to be here so the republicans
01:20:46.920 like you you're not allowed to raise law and order anymore because you objected to what was
01:20:52.160 done to president trump with the law fair yeah well the reality is that too is a violation of
01:20:56.060 law and order megan and one of the things i also said in this speech was addressing black americans
01:21:00.240 where i think this issue actually does land is that for a long time republicans were maybe a little
01:21:04.840 tone deaf to black americans who said for a long time the justice system was unfair well the reality
01:21:09.500 is we don't want a justice system that's unfair either on the basis of your skin color or your
01:21:13.860 political beliefs so i think this culture of the abandonment of the rule of law actually runs deep
01:21:18.700 the same reason we have the southern border crisis is in many ways linked to the reason why we have
01:21:24.640 an abandonment of the rule of law when the people at the top of the chain themselves view the law as
01:21:29.300 an inconvenience people at the doj people at even investigative agencies like the fbi local
01:21:34.720 prosecutors like those who have abused the law to not only pursue lawfare against president trump
01:21:38.820 but even countless other politically unsympathetic defendants that is part of a cultural breakdown and
01:21:44.520 and so you know what i disagree with her characterization that's either or they go together so i think that's
01:21:49.160 we need to restore uh over on i mean i i watch all the channels because i love seeing reactions to
01:21:52.920 all this stuff van jones was saying i don't think black people want to be patronized like vivek did
01:21:57.140 so any outreach by a republican to black voters saying you know what because you had a great part in your
01:22:02.480 speech about that that's patronizing that you're not allowed to do it's better just to remain silent
01:22:07.040 not seek their vote you see yeah and so i think that aoc was reacting to my speech last night as well
01:22:12.280 she was rather frenetic about it i think part of what's going on is the thing they're upset about is not
01:22:17.160 actually republican policies because i think there's not a lot to be upset about they're upset
01:22:20.980 we're picking off their voters that's actually what's going on don't fish in our pond there's a
01:22:25.760 little bit of territorialism we own these people and i don't mean that in a loaded sense i mean in an
01:22:30.580 accurate sense they view this as our pond the democrats view it don't come over and invade our
01:22:35.920 pond what actually the way we look at it is every american ought to be persuaded based on the merits of
01:22:40.360 what you're offering them and a lot of black voters a lot of hispanic voters a lot of gay voters are
01:22:45.620 actually saying you know what the republican party isn't the one that it was portrayed to be in in
01:22:49.420 some sense isn't the one that it was 20 years ago so look don't worry because cnn did have on a
01:22:54.760 republican to defend you it was jonah goldberg of the dispatch oh really i didn't i missed that it was
01:23:00.120 it was terrible it was so mean i i was like he clearly doesn't like you i won't bore you with what
01:23:05.260 he said but i was like that's the defense like you know this is the new cnn with the fair and balanced
01:23:10.400 you know commentary in response to one of the stars at the convention yeah somebody who hates him
01:23:14.260 you know i think part of me last year every time this would happen would take this as the short-term
01:23:20.120 thing is a reactionary impulse is a badge of honor and it sort of is but it's also kind of sad in the
01:23:24.460 country where i would love the country that i knew where we could debate vigorously like not in some
01:23:31.740 sort of light-hearted kid gloves kind of way but debate like hell really disagree on the issues but
01:23:37.160 to still be friends at the end of it or if not friends at least have some level of mutual respect
01:23:41.100 to say that we actually care about the country but we have deeply differing visions
01:23:44.780 and i think much of what the modern left particularly in the media has become is to use
01:23:49.160 the issue of labeling whether trump was you could say insurrectionist to dictator to rapist now trump
01:23:56.960 itself is become too popular that they're replacing it with fill in the blank product 2025 whatever you
01:24:01.720 want to call it that's right they have to have some label that affixes an emotional response to that
01:24:06.320 label rather than actually engaging in just an underlying debate on the merits which is too bad
01:24:11.500 for the country yeah because i think the republican party would be better off if we were challenged
01:24:14.960 by the best version of the other side but we're not getting that today it's so true it's too bad it
01:24:19.000 was and i again it's not important but it was a personal attack you know it was his feelings about
01:24:23.000 you and and your ambition or whatever it was but it was it was not on the merits it did not take on
01:24:28.820 the substance yeah and of course you know there's a reason too bad people don't i just don't think
01:24:32.720 the country's better off for that the aoc tweet which you refer to reads as follows young people
01:24:37.420 don't take well to bigoted leaders who attack lgbtq rights outlaw abortion cozy up to gun
01:24:43.100 manufacturers and oil execs and support a rapist for a president if you want to be cool so badly try
01:24:48.840 giving a damn about other people beyond yourself might open a few doors so the problem here is the
01:24:53.420 young people are taking well to republicans these are not things that republicans stand for yeah but
01:24:58.620 they are that so she's just pronouncing this is what they want and yet the polls are showing us
01:25:03.560 something different this election absolutely and that i think is just the beginning of a tidal wave
01:25:07.560 that's coming so she was responding to a section of my speech where i directly addressed gen z and
01:25:12.240 again it's fishing in their pond that they're offended by how to be revolutionary absolutely and i think the
01:25:17.000 revolutionary thing right now is to say something maybe different than what you're expected to say on
01:25:20.840 your college campus call yourself a conservative is what i said and i do think that that's the more
01:25:25.100 rebellious move today but nonetheless one of the interesting things about the attack she took is
01:25:29.840 she at least was a little bit more elegant than some of the cnn people trying to wrap it around a
01:25:34.000 policy disagreement let's just double click on that for a second she talks about gay rights this is
01:25:39.520 the republican platform right now is the republican platform as it exists today at this convention is
01:25:45.180 not opposed to gay marriage no she points to abortion women and their bodies literally this is said it
01:25:50.440 is a not a federal issue donald trump to myself when i ran for president to now the republican party
01:25:55.560 opposes a federal ban on abortion so part of their strategy now megan seems to be there's only four
01:26:01.160 months left on the election until the election just tell the voters something other than the republican
01:26:05.820 policies because the actual republican policy platform is quite appealing to most americans so we
01:26:10.540 can't compete on that just assume for the next four months we can tell them that the republican
01:26:14.220 platform is something that is other than what it actually is and maybe most voters won't notice
01:26:18.900 and it might be their best bet actually if you think about it winning on the merits in this short
01:26:23.840 of a time with the numbers looking like what they are instead people get their news from different
01:26:28.400 places just bet on the fact that enough americans are going to think that republicans support a federal
01:26:32.340 ban couple harris and joe biden have both said donald trump would sign a federal ban that's false in
01:26:36.380 fact he's taken heat from republicans yes for saying that he's opposed to a federal ban that's right
01:26:40.040 but their strategy now seems to be less on the merits and even less on the histrionics it's one of the
01:26:45.560 forks in the road for biden which i can come back to in a second but the remaining strategy is just
01:26:49.860 lie about what the republicans actually believe and then just hope the voters don't notice between
01:26:54.100 now and november um i definitely want to talk about what's happening with biden and there's news
01:26:58.040 breaking on that which i will get to in one second but i have to ask you jd vance is the big speaker
01:27:03.180 tonight he was the pick i know you were in favor of it i think this guy is absolutely just delightful
01:27:09.680 i he's a good man said yesterday i have a soft spot in my heart for him you've known him for a long time
01:27:13.440 did not realize you're at yale law school at the same time we were classmates did not get that
01:27:17.300 funny enough is we actually grew up so i grew up in southwest ohio where i lived till kindergarten
01:27:22.360 was probably 10 15 minutes from where he grew up middletown as well so he's in middletown i was in
01:27:26.080 westchester okay butler county it's right there in southwest ohio so i moved to evendale which is
01:27:30.820 10 minutes away but we were grew up the same part of southwest ohio went to yale law school we only met
01:27:35.880 when we were classmates in law school i didn't know he was a conservative and he i don't think knew quite as
01:27:40.540 quite the same about me we used to watch bengals games because we were both from there we were the
01:27:44.740 lone students long suffering bengal they were i know so we were toiling and in dive bars in new
01:27:49.140 haven watching like a pretty terrible football team at the time but so what was your impression of him
01:27:52.980 back then you know it was he was he was smart guy of course i mean you're surrounded by a lot of
01:27:58.780 smart people but he was he was earnest actually he was sincere and one of the things that's been
01:28:03.000 true about my relationship with him even dating back to then but all the way back to even this monday
01:28:07.540 with this monday morning we were having text message exchanges before he even formally knew
01:28:11.400 he was vice president yeah they just revealed he just found out like a half an hour before oh yeah
01:28:14.860 absolutely literally that morning it seemed to me like it was going to be him so i i congratulated him
01:28:19.280 he's like well i don't know that it's going to be yeah but but what but what i was going to say is
01:28:24.720 even in that even recently it's been this case for a decade now we agree on most things but we
01:28:31.220 actually spend a lot of time on areas where we disagree jd and i have some differences in our views for
01:28:36.580 the correct policy the correct direction for america first and i think those are interesting
01:28:40.480 but what i love about my relationship with him is he's really intellectually interested and he's
01:28:45.800 open-minded and i think he has pushed me to think about things differently than i would have and i'd
01:28:50.200 like to say the same in return and i think that says something about him as the kind of leader he's
01:28:54.900 going to be he's already reached across the aisle uh in his short term in he doesn't care about
01:28:59.500 these he doesn't care so much about these silly partisan boundaries versus actually having an
01:29:04.240 independent vision for america is pretty unique in politics the one downside of picking him is that
01:29:08.200 leaves an open senate seat that the republicans controlled in ohio republican governor in in ohio
01:29:13.060 mike dewine now the the quick 411 is he's not going to pivot he's going to not going to pick
01:29:19.280 vivek ramaswamy he's more of an establishment guy he's not going to want like an america first guy there
01:29:23.840 no offense to you do you think that's a smart calculation let's let's even about uh governor
01:29:30.640 dewine who i haven't had any conversations with about this topic but you know even for myself i'm
01:29:35.420 reflecting on keeping a really open mind into what's the right way to drive impact in the country
01:29:39.680 in the next chapter as you all know one of my top passions is to dismantle bureaucracy dismantle the
01:29:45.960 administrative state there's definitely an executive angle there foremost but there's also legislative
01:29:51.260 angle to be able to really pave the way for that and one of the things i thought was outstanding
01:29:55.580 about jd in the senate is he did have a clear-eyed view and vision for the country and he was smart
01:30:01.460 and energetic and willing to engage with people who disagreed with him on some things but to be
01:30:06.120 able to still find common ground on others we need more people like that you would be like that but
01:30:10.120 if asked i mean i would have to consider it right if i asked i would have to consider it
01:30:14.660 if i was imagine being a senator i would have run for senate there was two opportunities i
01:30:18.740 had to do it potentially in ohio in 22 and 24 i chose not to that being said in the moment we live in
01:30:24.660 i think this is a historic moment to really revive the country and we've got to each ask ourselves
01:30:29.140 how are we going to maximally have an impact and play a role in doing it so if asked i would
01:30:33.800 definitely consider it but i would also want to have a serious conversation with president trump
01:30:37.420 about i think it'd be crazy for him to go other than you're a local boy they all love you like
01:30:42.780 your name recognition has never been greater it's president trump's party i like he'd have to at
01:30:47.380 least consider so we'll see i'll i'll look forward to watching that story unfold respectful of his
01:30:51.420 you know his ability to make his decision and if asked i would consider it but i would also have
01:30:55.900 to make mine yeah oh you got a lot going on uh we know this you have your businesses to run as well
01:31:00.220 okay i want to get to this news on um biden's possibly stepping down uh there it hasn't died
01:31:05.780 this push to get him to step aside it got quieted down a little bit in the wake of what happened to
01:31:10.180 trump but today representative adam schiff is out via the la times saying biden needs to go yeah
01:31:17.560 schiff says quote he uh that biden has been one of the most consequential presidents in our nation's
01:31:22.780 history and his lifetime of service as a senator vice president now as president has made our country
01:31:26.460 better but our nation is at a crossroads a second trump presidency will undermine the very foundation
01:31:30.880 of our democracy and i have serious concerns about whether the president can defeat donald trump in
01:31:35.040 november he said the choice to withdraw from the campaign is president biden's alone but he believes
01:31:39.040 it's time for him to quote pass the torch and quote secure his legacy of leadership by allowing
01:31:44.040 another democrat to beat trump the the calls are resuming in earnest what's going to happen over
01:31:49.100 there well i think they're not only resuming i think they have an even more powerful case because
01:31:53.300 before it rested on and i say this as somebody who has been saying for a long time that biden is
01:31:58.560 unlikely to be the nominee even back when this was you know in supposed conspiratorial land i think we
01:32:03.640 talked about that yeah i mean we might have talked about it but but regardless right now it's
01:32:07.500 become mainstreamed by the debate performance but then that's the argument that oh it's just one night
01:32:12.880 and is it a matter of comparing performances at this nato summit versus that debate and that's a
01:32:17.560 relatively thin basis but there's actually something deeper now that's played out in the last week
01:32:21.680 which is that after saturday's tragic event and it was a tragedy but it was a near national tragedy
01:32:27.440 by a breadth of centimeters what we've learned is biden now says that we need to tone down the
01:32:33.920 political rhetoric and yet his entire campaign message is about how donald trump is a threat to
01:32:39.520 democracy with all the histrionics to go around it so he's at a fork in the road either he's violating
01:32:44.420 his own pledge to dial down political rhetoric or he does not have a message left neither one ends in a
01:32:50.560 good place for biden neither of which ends in a good place for the democratic party so i think that
01:32:54.860 has strengthened the case amongst democrats i'm saying even in a deeper way to say this is a man who's not
01:32:59.880 only suffering from cognitive impairment but more importantly he lacks any case or message because
01:33:05.800 the entire case he's been making against donald trump is now one that he has himself if he sticks
01:33:10.180 to his own principles has to abdicate so the questions are there's all kinds of mechanical
01:33:14.540 issues we could get into that's kind of boring as to why they might face some difficulties if they
01:33:18.080 swap biden out they may be relevant but i personally believe that they were not in a rush before the
01:33:23.840 republican convention they wanted this to play out let the vp nomination play out let the celebratory
01:33:29.060 biden or his detractors the democratic machine the democratic machine wanted to let this
01:33:33.500 the collective machine largely populated by detractors but the democratic machine that's
01:33:39.980 hopeful to eventually nudge him to one side didn't see a particular rush to do that before this
01:33:44.200 convention think about it in terms of business terms you give the other side more information
01:33:48.040 they're able to make a better play instead if you withhold your information until this time you
01:33:52.420 have your own convention i think what they're trying to set up for and it's not some person in a
01:33:57.280 smoke-filled back room but i think the collective incentives are for them to wait till august
01:34:01.700 you're within then a couple months of the election there's always going to be a honeymoon phase
01:34:05.660 when there's a new candidate in this particular phase it'd be like the equivalent of your attitude
01:34:09.780 towards somebody who releases you from captivity if you're a tortured prisoner the first person you
01:34:14.220 see you're going to fall in love with it's going to last for a few months before the scrutiny phase
01:34:17.320 begins november comes around before that scrutiny even starts and the media will help of course the
01:34:22.880 media will help and the media actually gets to wear the mantle of credibility right now they say oh no no
01:34:27.220 they've already turned on biden so when they prop up the new candidate they get to do so with this
01:34:31.660 artificial yeah we're tough on democrats of course yeah but this is just us playing it fair so i think
01:34:36.240 the stars could i think you have some people on the other side certainly the smarter ones who may be
01:34:40.720 thinking about the stars aligning right around august through november after this wave post convention
01:34:46.780 post writing this high plays out and i think the risk is people around here are getting to a place
01:34:51.860 where we're celebrating like this election is over don't measure the drapes well when in fact it may not
01:34:56.000 have even started really you're right who's the candidate who the candidate actually is so you still
01:35:00.240 think they'll sub they'll find a way i think so some of the way i come from this is not some sort of
01:35:04.440 sources or whatever i'm not in that world i don't think it matters anyway i just look at these things
01:35:08.660 in terms of what are the collective incentives on the chessboard and you know i've been wrong about
01:35:15.040 predicting a lot of things but i tend to i've tended to be better on contrarian things than most and this is the
01:35:20.640 way business wise or in this landscape one of my views is just analyze what everybody's incentives
01:35:26.040 are it's like an occam's razor more often than not an organization or a movement or a person tends to
01:35:32.060 behave according to its best incentives map that out and i think that's where these incentives point
01:35:36.580 so most people believe that any sub would be a bad thing for the republicans that joe biden would be
01:35:42.860 the best candidate to run against and because of the dynamic you just described that the odds would go
01:35:47.300 down for trump not not that he would be in a worse position overall but that they would go down
01:35:52.700 versus somebody other than joe biden so i think we have a way to insulate ourselves against that
01:35:56.620 i think we're seeing some of that happen here focus less on the other side so i said my speech last
01:36:02.960 night as well and focus more on who we are and what we stand for and i think donald trump has how could
01:36:08.460 you not have have been affected by what happened any human being would be on what happened on saturday
01:36:14.200 i think it's just his demeanor the tenor the restraint but the restraint without compromise
01:36:21.680 as well on his core principles and vision i think set up for i think what we're going to see in the
01:36:27.060 next couple of days here certainly on thursday night for a message that says you know what joe
01:36:30.420 biden said he was going to unite the country so did a lot of other presidents it hasn't happened yet
01:36:34.320 but i in my second term am going to be the one who actually unites this country not through words but
01:36:40.060 through action and in that way whoever they put up right that it takes the deflation takes the air
01:36:46.080 out of it it deflates the air in their balloon before it could take off because there's real
01:36:50.200 no space to claim them they're going to be the ones for a message of national unity for somebody who
01:36:54.020 just gets trotted out in august it starts to look more artificial and cynical which is what it will
01:36:58.340 be we've got like gretchen whitmer who's big on abortion but as you point out trump has already
01:37:02.080 kind of taken a lot of the air out of that balloon and a lot of the years took even to this
01:37:05.620 convention yes that's credible for general election and by the way it's completely the right
01:37:09.080 policy to not have a federal abortion ban once you can see that that's even possible then the
01:37:12.840 democrats will just make it a federal abortion free for all when they have power again i'd agree
01:37:16.440 with that but anyway the the other possible name we hear of course in many circles is gavin newsom who
01:37:20.920 literally yesterday you saw what he did he i didn't see what he did he passed legislation he signed into
01:37:26.660 law legislation that will make it impossible for any school to ban secrets between teachers and the
01:37:35.020 children when it comes to gender transition so some of the more conservative districts in
01:37:39.000 california were saying it's not appropriate if a kid goes by a girl when he goes but he's actually
01:37:43.140 a boy that you keep that a secret from the parents and he just made that an impossibility saying you
01:37:48.500 will keep the secret and social transitioning is very hard to undo once they go down that path
01:37:54.180 they almost never come back i don't think it could be gavin gavin's playing for 2028 i think that
01:37:58.600 seems pretty clear to me i think he understands correctly he's a smart guy he understands that it
01:38:02.880 couldn't possibly be this time because they have the kamal harris albatross issue right so if you make
01:38:07.760 your vice presidential nominee based on race and gender and don't take it from me or anybody else
01:38:13.500 that's literally what the democrats were saying the democratic machine oh yeah from even fellow
01:38:17.940 contenders say this is our moment to put a woman of color on the ticket not my words theirs that's how
01:38:21.860 biden became the nominee that's how that's with cliburn and that's exactly how kamal harris then he
01:38:26.400 made good on the promise so that's just hard fact but when that was their basis for appointing her
01:38:31.260 it makes it very difficult to pass her over unless it's for a candidate who checks the same boxes and
01:38:37.380 i come back to the collective incentives if you're going to take your one shot you're going to take
01:38:41.660 the best option you possibly have somebody who checks those same boxes and gavin newsom doesn't
01:38:46.780 do that i have some ideas on who might but i think that gavin newsom's playing for 2028
01:38:50.940 michelle obama yes i know you've mentioned that but we have to talk about she doesn't want to but
01:38:55.060 that assumes that that's her choice which i think views this machine in the very wrong way
01:38:59.040 oh it's a san antonio spurs a sort of upside down distorted version of it in a sports reference
01:39:04.000 stop it i mean people understand this i i all i had was that bangles comment okay so the san
01:39:09.960 antonio spurs are famous for it doesn't matter who the player is on the court the coach greg popovich
01:39:14.180 said it was a machine that ran right so it didn't matter who the point guard was it didn't matter who
01:39:18.280 the center was the machine still worked and so that's my point about how the modern why do they
01:39:22.580 need her then why do they need her because it's for the public they still need it right they need it
01:39:26.260 for their own ideology tethered to race and gender and they believe they need to take the
01:39:30.240 best shot they possibly can in one final you really think she'll do it even though she hates
01:39:33.320 politics and every statement is i'm sure i'm sure she hates it i think that um you know i think that
01:39:38.520 that makes her slightly more sympathetic i think most people will truthfully see that this is a person
01:39:43.160 who doesn't want to do it so there's all kinds of logistical reasons where that why that's about as
01:39:48.020 crazy of a thing to say today as it would have been for us to say that biden was going to be
01:39:51.620 ousted at this nominee a year ago as i was saying so we'll see i don't know if i'm right about that
01:39:55.640 specific prediction but just understand the incentives are for the democrats to let all of
01:39:59.840 this pass take their best shot and what's the lesson for us two things one is complacency is
01:40:05.620 not an option why am i saying all of this i'm saying all this to warn people you got to play
01:40:09.960 like you're behind or else you soon will be and number two is forget the other side actually even
01:40:14.800 in this conversation play your game yeah as soon as when it comes to convention or our own vision
01:40:19.160 this is our chance to define who we are and what we stand for so why are we going to waste our own
01:40:22.980 mental bandwidth focusing on what the other side is going to do when we have a historic opportunity
01:40:26.980 to do an even better job of defining how we're going to actually shut down the deep state how
01:40:31.160 we're going to end illegal immigration how we're going to revive the economy and by the way those
01:40:34.720 two things would automatically accomplish that go deep on that run to something rather than from
01:40:40.240 something and then i think we're good no matter who they put up and that's where i want to be well
01:40:43.760 they may be putting up somebody else uh this just breaking chad pergram of fox news fox is told that
01:40:49.580 indeed senator chuck schumer we started the show with this news that he had met with biden and that
01:40:54.160 he had personally urged him to step aside okay this is not yet out there in all of the uh reporting but
01:41:00.800 our friends from the ruth is program who are you know republican uh i don't want to call them operatives
01:41:05.040 but they work in republican politics reported it uh fox is told schumer pushed the dnc to delay its
01:41:11.540 virtual roll call of its presidential nominee was set for august 7th and moreover fox is told schumer
01:41:17.520 and hakeem jeffries both spoke and agreed to make the push that the dnc delay the balloting
01:41:23.700 so they don't want it's begun it was supposed to happen on august 7th it's not going to happen
01:41:29.220 yeah it's begun they need more time i think they want to wait to do this at the convention i think
01:41:33.540 it will have a dramatic flare later the better i think they can't do it much later than that
01:41:37.600 but the later the better because what that's two and a half months from the time of the election
01:41:41.560 you're still in the honeymoon phase yeah so it's again when i say when i say that they want this
01:41:46.820 it's not that i'm implying that there are four or five actors in the smoke-filled room that are
01:41:50.880 this carefully plotted out it looks like chaos because it is chaos but the chaos has a direction
01:41:55.900 to it it's not they're not going to willingly just lose the house the senate and the white house
01:42:00.520 you find that really hard to believe and the people who you know butter the bread the providers of the
01:42:05.360 mother's milk of politics money are now having a significant view on this as well one of the things
01:42:10.260 because the donations dried up absolutely the left used to be the ones that that said that we want
01:42:15.160 to keep mega money out of politics they're actually the party that is far more controlled by mega money
01:42:18.680 than even the republican party is today but with that fact being what it is i just have a hard time
01:42:24.260 seeing they're going to put up a not only mentally frail candidate but by demonstrably the weakest
01:42:30.020 candidate without a message and so i just think we have to be alert to that so that we don't fall into
01:42:34.660 an otherwise trap that's been laid for us so the republicans are getting richer by the moment there
01:42:38.960 was an announcement yesterday that elon musk is going to donate 45 million dollars a month
01:42:43.860 to helping trump get re-elected so we'll watch it we'll watch it all vivek great to see you good
01:42:49.560 can't wait to watch jd vance tonight and we'll have a full report on how that went tomorrow see you all
