Donald Trump threatens to sue BBC over a billion dollars for the January 6th speech edit, right?
00:00:08.520
So it's like, hey, you know, he said this, but he never said that.
00:00:13.480
That was not what he said next, but that's how they put it, Rob.
00:00:19.300
We're going to walk down to the Capitol, and I'll be there with you, and we fight.
00:00:32.140
Fast forward to the original clip to see what he says afterwards.
00:00:38.580
We're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave Senate.
00:00:54.540
Holy shit, we have to make sure we show what happened here.
00:01:06.000
BBC boss, Tim Davey, resigns over Trump documentary edit.
00:01:17.720
Do you have the interview of her stepping down?
00:01:25.180
I think we played that one yesterday, but there is one with the CEO, Rob.
00:01:28.920
Where the CEO, the lady is quitting, and she's being interviewed afterwards, okay?
00:01:48.780
So a woman quits, resigns, and does this interview.
00:02:05.280
She's being interviewed, and she comes up and saying, I'm stepping down.
00:02:16.960
So she's walking up to just kind of give the news.
00:02:24.000
If you go to it, Rob, you have to see this, folks.
00:02:35.280
I would like to say it has been the privilege of my career to serve as the CEO of BBC News
00:02:41.440
and to work with our brilliant team of journalists.
00:02:44.380
I stepped down over the weekend because the buck stops with me.
00:02:55.880
That's why it's the world's most trusted news provider.
00:02:59.800
By the way, by the way, she's not just the head of anything.
00:03:05.900
She's the CEO of BBC that resigns because they know a billion dollar lawsuit is coming
00:03:14.960
Provider, why did you fail to deal with the mistakes that were made?
00:03:25.960
President Trump says, do you think the journalists are corrupt?
00:03:29.600
Our journalists are hardworking people who strive for impartiality.
00:03:38.080
Mistakes are made, but there's no institutional bias.
00:03:40.940
There's no mistakes dealt with on Trump, on anti-Semitism, on women's rights.
00:03:54.160
And Pat, you proved that they even talked about it.
00:03:56.120
They even said, like, hey, listen, this is, you guys realize that we're putting something
00:04:19.160
They're trying to meddle with somebody else's politics in America that's taking place.
00:04:28.200
God knows how many other people are going to be stepping down.
00:04:33.480
And guess what he's going to do until he gets that?
00:04:43.500
What you see is an executive walking who has signed an exit agreement that has got non-disparagement.
00:04:48.720
So she's saying the only thing she can say and what she agreed to say.
00:04:53.040
It's just party line is what you're hearing from her.
00:04:55.260
But the reason she resigned is because there was bias.
00:04:58.420
The reason that Tim was his name resigned because there was bias.
00:05:02.560
And, by the way, if it's an isolated incident, they can go to the mat in a lawsuit on an isolated incident, Pat.
00:05:12.040
And they can say, hey, we terminated an editor.
00:05:25.420
And what he's bringing, he's bringing the hammer.
00:05:34.060
Instead of saying, we're going to walk down to the Capitol and root on our amazing congressmen and women and hopefully they do a good job.
00:05:42.480
We're going to walk down to the Capitol and we're going to go kick everybody's ass.
00:05:56.460
So they wanted history to say that Donald Trump told people to go there and fight.
00:06:02.400
By the way, what is the lawsuit here that they're talking about?
00:06:07.040
Donald Trump threatens to sue BBC for one billion dollars over January 6th speech.
00:06:12.860
Rob, is there a video on this I'm talking about it?
00:06:17.800
A legal representative for the president said that they were considering a billion dollar lawsuit.
00:06:23.000
So what you're seeing here, a pattern, a pattern, getting back to respect and not manipulating.
00:06:36.260
We had a call with, you take the AI companies out, the fastest growing company in America.
00:06:46.200
And we're having a conversation that says, you know what makes, what we like about PBD Podcasts?
00:06:54.120
Because you guys are processing stuff while you're in the middle of it.
00:07:03.440
It's not like it's like, today and I'm reading a teleprompter, right?
00:07:14.520
No, all these games today, this can be used in a positive way.
00:07:21.600
With all of this right now out there, it's very, very hard to try to manipulate because everybody is,
00:07:28.220
it's easy to manipulate short term, but long term you're getting caught.
00:07:31.840
The question becomes, that video that they cut the way that they did was effective at the time.
00:07:38.980
These videos that they cut this way, what Nancy Pelosi did, was effective on January 6th.
00:07:43.620
All the video, we're sitting here talking about insurrection.
00:07:46.480
I remember one time, Adam, I don't know if you remember this or not.
00:07:49.500
I'm like, do you even know what insurrection is?
00:07:54.860
The only person that you guys killed was one of the people on Trump's side.
00:07:58.500
Who is this guy that's walking up there telling people to run up, run up, run up?
00:08:08.780
All of these things are gradually being exposed, and it's exciting that this is taking place.
00:08:23.440
This is a level above a lawsuit, I think, though, too.
00:08:25.820
I mean, think of the danger that could have come from putting the idea in people's heads,
00:08:29.380
thinking that Trump was asking them to go there and fight and do what they're spending as an interaction or rebel against the government.
00:08:35.080
So I think it could be legal consequences of potentially jail time if you look at it a certain way.
00:08:42.180
It's crazier than the CBS thing with Kamala, where they're just trying to make it look like she didn't say something stupid.
00:08:48.020
They made it look like he said something dangerous.
00:08:52.240
It's a big difference between the Kamala thing, CBS, where they doctored her thing, the George Stephanopoulos thing.
00:08:58.520
This is a foreign media company, which is the equivalent, I would say, of PBS or NPR, interfering with American politics at the height of discord.
00:09:14.640
Where's the leverage in not just going and suing them now?
00:09:18.440
I'm curious to what would be a reason where he's just like, he wants the apology.
00:09:22.320
He wants to say, so you think if he gets the apology, he's not going to ask for the money of the lawyers to go sue them?
00:09:31.380
He says, all I want is an apology from last night.
00:09:34.420
I'm not in the suing business for something like that.
00:09:45.280
It's just the executive team, the guy that's the president, is horrible at what he does.
00:09:50.160
Lacks respect and is entitled and is arrogant, right?
00:09:53.540
And you learn about organizations on private calls, not on stage, on private calls.
00:09:59.340
I don't know whether BBC has privately called Trump yet.
00:10:04.920
I don't know if there's been a private phone call.
00:10:07.400
I don't know if anybody's reached out privately.
00:10:10.340
I don't know if anyone's called and said anything.
00:10:12.860
If they did, do you think Trump would leak that to the world?
00:10:16.100
Do you think Trump would say, I just had a good call with BBC.
00:10:32.720
This could have been a very catastrophic, if he doesn't get reelected, history books would
00:10:44.320
Her background here, according to the bio that's publicly available, she was president
00:10:49.260
of NBC News from 2013 to 2017 before she went back across to the BBC.
00:10:55.200
What happened in 2016 and how did NBC News cover that?
00:11:10.580
And you don't think her deposition would have included, well, let's look at your previous
00:11:17.720
She went educated at St. Francis College, age 12, expelled because she was kissing a boy
00:11:35.160
So she's got a long history of getting fired, apparently.
00:11:43.180
That's our sleuth Vinny out there finding the real movable investigation.
00:11:49.540
We haven't done this in a while, so this is probably going to go in 30 minutes.
00:11:53.720
We have a new hat that we've been working on for months, and it's officially here in
00:12:04.460
