00:00:00.000 Pam Bondi. Trump fires Pam Bondi yesterday. Lots of stories come out.
00:00:05.600 Okay, a lot of stories. So you got Christy Noem is gone. Some say because of balloons,
00:00:10.180 but whatever. Christy Noem is gone. Party animal. So now Pam Bondi is gone. The announcement is
00:00:15.120 made all over the place. And there's a lot of stories that are coming out with this Pam Bondi
00:00:19.460 firing. The White House, first play the clip. Let's read this one here. Pam Bondi is a great 1.00
00:00:24.860 American patron, true lawyer, friend, who faithfully serves as attorney general over the past year.
00:00:28.920 Pam did a tremendous job overseeing a massive crackdown in crime across this country with murders plummeting to their lows since 1900.
00:00:35.200 We love Pam, and she would be transiting to a much-needed and important new job in the private sector to be announced at a later date. 0.98
00:00:41.860 And our deputy attorney general and a very talented, respected legal mind, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as the acting attorney general.
00:00:52.300 While that's being announced, Rob, there are stories that came out.
00:00:55.300 Todd Blanche was asked about the rumors with Eric Swalwell.
00:00:59.940 I think you have that clip, Rob.
00:01:01.360 Go for it.
00:01:02.180 Here's Jesse asking Todd Blanche the question about was the reasoning for this having to do with her relationship with Eric Swalwell.
00:01:11.080 Go for it.
00:01:11.740 Pam Bondi, too, but she didn't give Swalwell a heads up on the Fang Fang files, did she?
00:01:16.560 I would not believe that for a second.
00:01:19.480 Absolutely, positively not.
00:01:22.320 Tom, what do you think?
00:01:23.440 So there's a lot of rumors that float out. Whenever there's a change in administration, here you go. It's, you know, it's the parlor game of what really happened, what was really said, what was, you know, behind it all.
00:01:35.200 You know, I think the fact that that's being brought up, maybe there's some, I only give that probably about a 20 percent credence. If she did that, that would be such a lapse of judgment because it was so high stakes at that time.
00:01:49.580 it's like three things can happen and two of them are bad one is nobody finds out about it
00:01:54.700 second swalwell or somebody talks about it and third somebody on her team talks about it it's
00:02:00.080 like i i just i see the rumors i see that because everybody wants a reason pat right everybody wants
00:02:06.080 okay what's the real reason here she's going by the way she's going to a job in the private sector 1.00
00:02:10.620 okay you know what do you think happened um honestly i i like pam but i'll tell you objectively
00:02:18.540 if I was her manager sitting down there, I said, Pam, you got caught talking in a restaurant about
00:02:24.520 the Epstein files. Then you had to do this, this press conference at the front of the White House.
00:02:30.360 And then we had leaks and things going on. This project just hasn't been handled very good at all.
00:02:36.000 I mean, you and I both run businesses and I've been able to sit with you and be a part of your
00:02:41.420 businesses. And I've seen where we have to talk with good people about this. So you just didn't
00:02:46.180 do a good job there. You just didn't get it done. I got to make a change. It doesn't mean you hate
00:02:51.200 the person at all. It doesn't mean you don't think they'll thrive in some other job and you may help
00:02:55.820 them get that other job. But I think that the Epstein files and what was going on there and
00:03:00.920 just kind of the way that was handled, I don't think it was a passing grade and they made a
00:03:04.400 change. Yeah, I think Tom nailed it. I think you said it previously. The only thing that can really
00:03:08.500 hurt Trump outside of Iran and the economy, arguably, is the Epstein files. I think it's 0.70
00:03:13.060 one of the few things that's nonpartisan i think every american citizen wants transparency wants
00:03:17.180 it released and most politicians are fighting against that and trump came in very strongly
00:03:21.860 on that premise that he's gonna get the information out and we haven't seen it happen
00:03:25.960 and it needs morale now um well i think her getting fired besides everybody else christy
00:03:32.120 noem the whole crew this one was the most one that was overdue okay she's had a year and two
00:03:37.760 months to bring actual justice. Instead, we just got TV appearances, her yelling in front of 1.00
00:03:43.320 Congress, and anti-promises. Think about this, Tommy. Under Merrick Garland, the attorney general
00:03:47.460 under Biden, in less than a year, the Department of Justice appointed Jack Smith built 44 federal
00:03:53.540 cases against Trump. Two major cases, expanded January 6th prosecutions, prosecuted 1,500 people
00:03:59.600 that were just standing there. Grandmothers that were there with a flag were put in prison, okay?
00:04:03.980 they didn't love it or hate it that proved that an actual attorney general that cares about that
00:04:08.840 like cares but does what they're supposed to be doing in that sense fast at scale and force
00:04:13.560 that's what they want to do so the question becomes if he could do it why did bondi spent
00:04:17.900 so much time promising stuff to people like me i'm the base i'm the trump race has been down with
00:04:23.500 him since 2016 no accountability that we've we've i voted for no fauci no russia gate no justice to
00:04:30.900 the censorship machine about the government big tech no accountability for mar-a-lago the catholic
00:04:35.400 targeting memo the lawfare crowd or the weaponization of the doj and the fbi going to twitter paying
00:04:40.840 the money uh suppressing the hunter biden story and then the biggest thing like you guys said
00:04:45.020 is epstein that right there and he said it he said it first was the biggest like shot in the
00:04:51.460 like what the hell self-inflicted gun gunshot wound biggest fumble the biggest fumble you go 0.55
00:04:56.940 on camera and you say you have what she say tens of thousands of videos involving kids and this is
00:05:03.100 the most important of this she didn't know she was being recorded so that's when you're saying the
00:05:07.140 truth yeah she's speaking the truth and then when it leaked because of james o'keefe she had to come
00:05:12.320 out and say that okay instead you know what we got um elon we got binders that was the most
00:05:18.280 bothersome thing binders social media content creator may i and it's who received those binders
00:05:23.960 Those binders weren't given out to Department of Justice or given out to congressmen heading up maybe committees or they were going to have hearings.
00:05:32.240 They were given to, who got them?
00:05:33.820 Libs of TikTok, D.C. Drano, Jack Solbeck, Scott Pressler, right?
00:05:41.300 Yeah.
00:05:41.700 They give it out to influencers?
00:05:43.320 Yeah.
00:05:43.620 We live in the twilight zone.
00:05:45.020 Why not line up, say, hey, here's the people that are going to run the hearings, and here they go.
00:05:49.800 This is a good fire.
00:05:51.080 I actually support this firing.
00:05:52.260 I think it's the right move.
00:05:53.960 And by the way, let me tell you, I said this yesterday on Twitter is, you know, politics is a very, very nasty game.
00:06:03.060 It's not for everybody.
00:06:04.780 I agree.
00:06:05.240 One day you're a rock star.
00:06:06.300 Next day you're a laughingstock.
00:06:08.720 But it's attractive because it's a contact sport.
00:06:11.580 So people want to get into it.
00:06:12.880 But guess what?
00:06:13.900 This is not going to be a good week for Pam Bondi. 0.99
00:06:15.740 She's got to kind of go through it and move on to the next phase.
00:06:17.960 And, look, for the rest of her family's life, her grandkids or her family is going to say what?
00:06:25.060 My, you know, Pam Bondi was the former attorney general.
00:06:29.220 Go ahead.
00:06:29.700 That's history books.
00:06:30.860 That's permanently cemented.
00:06:32.240 So good for you.
00:06:32.940 You did your part.
00:06:33.560 You went all the way to the top.
00:06:35.020 Now go do whatever you're going to be doing next.
00:06:36.660 But the next move.
00:06:38.080 Now, I wonder what Todd Blanche is going to be doing now.
00:06:40.780 So, for example, Todd Blanche comes in.
00:06:42.940 So I am meeting with him.
00:06:44.120 So, okay, Todd, how do we handle that?
00:06:45.380 You got it.
00:06:45.720 What's your new plan for Epstein?
00:06:46.660 What are we going to do it?
00:06:47.360 Because this is an opportunity for Todd Blanch to do what?
00:06:50.540 Help Pam Bondi save face and come up with a better approach with Epstein. 1.00
00:06:55.660 So if he comes out and he says, hey, he's defending Pam Bondi,
00:07:00.400 but he also comes out and aggressively moves quickly with certain topics,
00:07:04.680 people might be like, oh, wow.
00:07:06.340 So it was Pam Bondi.
00:07:08.480 Todd Blanch is moving more assertively.
00:07:10.740 It helps the president.
00:07:12.040 This could be a good move.
00:07:12.800 So I don't know what's going to happen with Todd Blanch.
00:07:15.460 I hope he doesn't become a vanilla AG where you come in and you don't really do anything.
00:07:20.260 You just kind of stay quiet and go under the radar and nothing really happens.
00:07:23.760 Rob, is this a clip as well you have from last night?
00:07:25.540 So I have two.
00:07:26.140 This is Todd Blanche talking about what the Department of Justice is currently focusing on.
00:07:30.240 And then I have a separate clip where he's asked if Pam Bondi was fired because of the Epstein. 0.65
00:07:34.680 Let's listen to both.
00:07:35.720 Go for it.
00:07:36.500 I will tell you this.
00:07:37.720 You are right.
00:07:38.300 This is an important and long overdue objective.
00:07:40.380 Just today in Los Angeles, we had to take down eight individuals who were arrested for allegedly bilking over $50 million of intended loss from our taxpayer monies.
00:07:51.340 And yes, this includes leadership in state governments, our investigations do, because guess what?
00:07:56.800 They are in many ways the actual conduit.
00:07:59.960 They're letting it happen by not doing anything to stop these individuals stealing from the American people.
00:08:06.480 And so you're going to see this Department of Justice pour all of our heart and soul into the next one, Rob.
00:08:13.440 Let's go to the next one. The Epstein one. Go for it.
00:08:17.540 Now, the Epstein files, you'd agree not handled well.
00:08:23.140 And I don't. First of all, I have never heard President Trump say that the attorney general was that anything that happened to her had anything to do with the Epstein files.
00:08:30.900 And so, look, the Epstein files has been a saga that's lasted for the entire for the past year.
00:08:36.480 And what happened when the president signed the Transparency Act is the Department of Justice has now released all the files with respect to the Epstein saga.
00:08:45.800 And the attorney general Bondi and I appeared in front of Congress voluntarily a couple weeks ago to answer any questions they had.
00:08:51.900 We have made every single congressman, senator available to come and see any document redacted, unredacted that they want.
00:08:59.000 And so I think that to the extent that the Epstein files was a part of the past year of this Justice Department, it should not be a part of anything going forward.
00:09:08.320 OK, well, I have one more clip I sent Rob about if he's going to be vanilla or how he's going to be.
00:09:14.860 I just sent it to Rob. Pat, you guys have to understand that he's out of all people.
00:09:18.740 That's Trump's old lawyer. He's the one that went to interview Ghislaine Maxwell.
00:09:22.940 and then she got moved to a more pushy, poshy prison cell 1.00
00:09:28.060 or whatever you want to call it.
00:09:29.540 By the way, she came in after Acosta, Alex Acosta, in Florida.
00:09:34.380 Her connection to Epstein is so intertwined.
00:09:36.600 She wasn't there for him, but after he was gone, she came in.
00:09:39.480 They didn't pursue anything for Epstein.
00:09:41.300 If you want to know, Pat, his attitude towards it,
00:09:43.140 look at the question they ask and look at his response
00:09:45.160 and you guys tell me what you think he's going to be pursuing after this.
00:09:47.640 Go ahead.
00:09:48.300 I have one thing to say.
00:09:49.060 You said this is the end of the Epstein, of your review of the Epstein files.
00:09:53.540 So just to clarify, is the public going to learn the identities of the men who abused the girls with the information that you're releasing?
00:10:03.940 And if not, why not?
00:10:06.020 And then I have a quick follow-up.
00:10:07.820 You just baked in an assumption into your question that I have never said and I don't know to be true.
00:10:12.600 Is the public going to learn about men that abused these girls?
00:10:17.360 What does that mean?
00:10:18.020 What do you mean? Well, I mean, they're the men who abused the young women through Epstein's.
00:10:28.860 We said in July and it remains as true today as it was in July.
00:10:34.000 If we had information, we meaning the Department of Justice about men who abused women, we would we would we would prosecute them.
00:10:43.000 Right. We talked about the work that we're doing. That's why I said that.
00:10:45.840 I said this earlier.
00:10:49.160 He's so
00:10:49.920 because they're all connected
00:10:52.100 and I want to say this, Pat, FYI
00:10:54.000 Pam Bondi is supposed to go 1.00
00:10:56.020 in front of the House Oversight Committee on April
00:10:57.820 14th because of Epstein files.
00:11:00.120 Number one. Number two, Thomas Massey came out
00:11:02.060 and he congratulated Todd Blanche
00:11:03.880 and he said, now, this was yesterday,
00:11:05.820 you have 30 days to release the rest of the files
00:11:08.000 so that's a lot because there's over 3 million
00:11:09.960 left. He goes, I'm sorry
00:11:11.760 you have 30 days to release the files before
00:11:13.540 becoming criminally liable for failure to comply with the epstein files transparency act we're
00:11:18.460 being gaslit bro you know it's interesting you said earlier today you feel like something
00:11:21.840 spiritual is going on in society this to me is the ultimate you want it you want to look at the
00:11:26.580 most evil disturbing thing and it's done by people of all the power all the control we're sitting
00:11:32.120 here we feel helpless and if you're going to attack anything destroy anything you would destroy
00:11:36.640 god's most beautiful creation children and it's it's just i don't know i can't well i get very
00:11:41.880 emotional sometimes when i want makes me very upset i don't know i really it's one of the
00:11:45.780 things that drives me crazy oh by the way you can replace pam bondy todd 50 different times
00:11:53.340 the american people are not going away with epstein i really can replace anybody you want
00:11:59.460 it's not going away adam i don't want to go epstein i just i want to stay here on trump look
00:12:07.100 uh i figured out kind of how trump operates everyone kind of speculates how trump operates
00:12:13.740 you tell me if you agree or disagree with this you've heard of the hot crazy matrix 0.52
00:12:17.540 never heard of that the hot crazy matrix the hotter the girl the hotter the girl the crazier 0.95
00:12:22.080 she is you got to figure out is she crazy is she not is she hot then you kind of figure out what
00:12:26.080 that goes from there okay you've heard of the uh navy seal trust versus skill matrix the navy seal
00:12:32.060 want people to trust they obviously want high skilled but trust is more important than skilled
00:12:35.980 what's the trump matrix in my opinion it's loyalty and competence the number one thing is are you
00:12:43.540 with me or against me if you're not loyal that's it there's no place in this administration for you
00:12:48.840 but are you competent are you actually good at your job do you have skill are you talented are
00:12:54.760 you gonna help me win we're gonna win so big so to me everyone is judged on this matrix are you
00:13:00.080 loyal or disloyal are you basically screwing things up or doing a good job and that's how
00:13:04.640 trump operates to me loyalty for trump will get you in the door but competence will keep you in
00:13:11.440 the house just like in a dating situation to use the hot crazy matrix beauty will keep you in the 1.00
00:13:16.240 door and get you in the door inner beauty of being a good person will keep you in the house
00:13:20.340 so to me trump is looking at everybody jd vance rubio rfk bondi christy noem goes are they loyal
00:13:28.660 are they with me and are they doing a good job and to me if you want to question pam bondi do
00:13:34.260 You think Pam Bondi was loyal?
00:13:35.800 I think she was pretty damn loyal.
00:13:37.380 I think her flaw was competence.
00:13:40.300 J.D. Vance, in another capacity, is he loyal?
00:13:45.120 Maybe.
00:13:46.160 Maybe there's some questions.
00:13:47.560 I don't know.
00:13:48.580 Is he competent?
00:13:49.500 Yeah.
00:13:49.820 It seems so.
00:13:50.700 Yeah.
00:13:50.920 That's how you judge Trump.
00:13:52.080 Remember his first pick?
00:13:53.160 His first pick was Matt Gaetz.
00:13:54.940 Yeah.
00:13:55.120 And the Senate told that there were 64 senators that said,
00:13:59.460 we will never vote for Matt Gaetz.
00:14:01.760 So it was impossible confirmation.
00:14:03.420 For Attorney General, you're talking about.
00:14:04.120 For AG.
00:14:04.700 Right.
00:14:05.060 He was the one.
00:14:06.340 Trump wanted a pit bull.
00:14:07.940 He wanted a pit bull to go out and prosecute the people that had illegally prosecuted him and to go right those wrongs.
00:14:15.260 Those were real things.
00:14:16.720 You look at all the things that he went through.
00:14:18.860 And I'm not a cheerleader for him.
00:14:19.980 Forget his name is Trump.
00:14:21.100 Just go down the list and say a sitting president and then a citizen after he left office was subjected to all of this and how much of it turned out to be wrong.
00:14:30.340 Yeah.
00:14:30.600 Why wouldn't you want people prosecuted?
00:14:32.460 You think he wanted a pit bull, but he got a chihuahua on Pan Bundy. 0.63
00:14:35.200 No, I didn't say that.
00:14:36.540 You just said that.
00:14:37.400 I did.
00:14:37.680 I would never care.
00:14:38.400 I inferred that.
00:14:39.220 What I would say is the following.
00:14:42.600 There is difference between competency.
00:14:45.800 I would add one more thing to it, to that.
00:14:48.780 Trust competency, and I would add one other one.
00:14:51.040 It's media prepared, and she failed in the media side. 1.00
00:14:55.120 She did.
00:14:55.600 When she went in the hearing, that was not good.
00:14:58.340 When she didn't realize when you're in the market,
00:15:00.820 at MP, you have to always assume cameras are on you
00:15:02.740 and, you know, people are asking you a question at a coffee shop.
00:15:05.680 Media trained, you have to
00:15:06.900 know, you have to be
00:15:08.740 bulletproof with secret sauce.
00:15:11.040 You know, I always explain the
00:15:12.480 circles, you've got people that are in different circles
00:15:14.900 and you have the smallest circle where you open up
00:15:16.680 and talk about anything, and you'll always
00:15:18.740 test the circle by dropping stuff that nobody
00:15:20.700 else will know to see if it leaks out and like,
00:15:22.320 I can't trust that guy,
00:15:24.740 and going out. So, you have to make sure
00:15:26.660 who you trust, the loyalty part is there, but
00:15:28.600 it's also not bragging about the intel that

00:16:06.200 you as well. You ready for the next thing that they're going
00:16:08.160 to say about Trump? By the way, I agree with you on the media
00:16:10.120 savviness. That's obviously a major 0.99
00:16:12.040 component. The next attack
00:16:14.140 line on Trump is that he hates women. Look at him. 1.00
00:16:16.620 He fires Kristi Noe and then it's Van Bondi.

00:16:25.960 Oh, now we're giving the media the benefit of the doubt
00:16:27.880 of what they're going to do with Trump?
