00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.

00:00:02.480 Guaranteed human.

00:00:05.500 It's Verdict Live from Arizona

00:00:08.160 at the Goldwater Institute dinner.

00:00:10.680 Welcome.

00:00:14.440 Senator, good to be with you.

00:00:16.040 We are here in Arizona.

00:00:18.000 Goldwater Institute had an amazing dinner

00:00:20.040 with an incredible crowd that many people

00:00:22.260 will hear in the background here.

00:00:23.960 Thank you guys for having us.

00:00:25.620 And we've got a lot to talk about tonight

00:00:31.020 and we're also going to get some Q&A in here

00:00:32.940 from the audience,

00:00:33.640 which is one of your favorite things to do on the road.

00:00:35.580 You love that.

00:00:36.320 Look, Ben, that's exactly right.

00:00:37.740 And let me say, Goldwater Institute

00:00:39.000 is an amazing institution.

00:00:40.820 It is the premier free market think tank in Arizona.

00:00:44.840 It has been a leading advocate for liberty

00:00:47.400 here in Arizona and across the nation.

00:00:49.920 And Goldwater in particular

00:00:51.120 has been extraordinary leading on school choice.

00:00:53.840 Arizona has been at the tip of the spear

00:00:57.000 on school choice.

00:00:59.760 They've made an incredible difference,

00:01:01.460 not just with the kids in Arizona,

00:01:03.720 but they've been a model to the entire nation.

00:01:06.200 And so you and I are proud to be here

00:01:07.840 to support the great work Goldwater does,

00:01:10.360 but also to bring this podcast to everyone here.

00:01:14.260 And as we get started,

00:01:16.260 I want to let everyone here know,

00:01:18.320 this podcast we have just under a million viewers

00:01:21.760 and listeners that listen every month

00:01:24.040 to this podcast.

00:01:25.620 On Verdict, we are beating CNN every single week.

00:01:33.560 And so every one of you,

00:01:35.280 there's a very simple path.

00:01:36.560 If you have your cell phone,

00:01:37.640 you can take your cell phone out right now.

00:01:39.920 And you can text the word Verdict

00:01:43.260 to the number 24005.

00:01:48.320 Let me give that to you again.

00:01:49.920 The number is 24005.

00:01:53.480 If you text the word Verdict,

00:01:56.060 what you will get back is a link

00:01:58.040 to subscribe to the podcast.

00:01:59.800 And I'll say something.

00:02:00.640 Which is free.

00:02:01.800 This is the best part.

00:02:02.700 And that's the point my dad,

00:02:04.320 my dad is 84 years old.

00:02:07.720 And he pointed out to me,

00:02:08.960 look, when you say subscribe,

00:02:11.200 my generation thinks you mean magazine subscriptions

00:02:13.780 and you're going to charge me.

00:02:15.560 So there ain't any cost,

00:02:17.100 but you can get it downloaded to your phone

00:02:19.240 every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

00:02:21.500 And it is a tool to give you the information

00:02:25.340 about what's happening in this country

00:02:26.780 because we know that the corporate media

00:02:29.440 is profoundly dishonest.

00:02:31.740 And this is designed to empower patriots in Arizona

00:02:35.780 and across the country

00:02:37.420 who are fighting to pull our country back.

00:02:39.900 You mentioned school of choice

00:02:41.140 and we're going to get to that.

00:02:42.080 We're also going to get some breaking news

00:02:43.540 that deals with the Supreme Court.

00:02:44.680 But before we get to that,

00:02:46.400 let's start and talk about

00:02:47.780 what's going on in Israel right now.

00:02:49.880 There has been over the last 24, 48 hours

00:02:52.500 a pretty significant shift,

00:02:54.920 especially from the media in this country

00:02:58.220 and also around the world

00:02:59.560 and more calls for a, quote,

00:03:01.660 humanitarian ceasefire.

00:03:04.040 It is frustrating when you see this

00:03:06.260 because it's clear that Israel

00:03:08.360 is having to defend itself

00:03:10.040 from these horrific terrorists.

00:03:12.460 We've heard even more about their atrocities,

00:03:14.560 including putting children in ovens,

00:03:16.380 babies in ovens that were found.

00:03:18.480 We know that they beheaded infant children.

00:03:20.900 And yet the media is now trying to put pressure,

00:03:22.820 not on the terrorists,

00:03:24.380 but on Israel to just say pause

00:03:27.240 so that many of these terrorists

00:03:28.800 would not be brought to justice,

00:03:30.220 which I think for many we agree

00:03:31.440 should be that they are taken off

00:03:33.120 the face of this earth.

00:03:39.160 Well, Ben, as you know,

00:03:40.760 this has been a battle

00:03:42.220 and it's been a battle

00:03:43.040 with the Biden administration

00:03:44.480 from the very beginning of this war.

00:03:46.160 This war began on October 7th

00:03:49.140 with a grotesque act of atrocities.

00:03:54.200 The attacks of Hamas

00:03:55.960 were the worst attacks

00:03:58.260 on the state of Israel

00:03:59.200 in over 50 years.

00:04:01.840 On October 7th,

00:04:03.180 it was the single greatest mass murder

00:04:05.540 of Jews in any single day

00:04:07.740 since the Holocaust.

00:04:10.320 And Hamas terrorists,

00:04:11.760 the death squads,

00:04:13.160 went house to house,

00:04:14.660 murdering every person in that house,

00:04:17.860 seeking out civilians,

00:04:19.660 murdering elderly people,

00:04:21.700 murdering women,

00:04:22.620 murdering children,

00:04:24.720 violently raping women

00:04:26.440 and little girls,

00:04:27.380 dragging them into the streets,

00:04:29.500 and murdering,

00:04:30.220 murdering, beheading,

00:04:31.460 and burning alive infants.

00:04:34.480 It has been sick.

00:04:36.040 It has been grotesque.

00:04:38.240 Over 1,400 Israelis

00:04:40.060 have been murdered.

00:04:40.760 Over 200 Israelis

00:04:43.120 are held hostage right now.

00:04:46.160 And not only was this

00:04:47.440 one of the worst attacks

00:04:48.580 on Israel in history,

00:04:50.020 this is also one of the worst

00:04:51.440 terrorist attacks

00:04:52.320 on the United States in history.

00:04:54.320 On that day,

00:04:55.440 31 Americans were murdered.

00:04:57.320 There are roughly

00:04:57.840 a dozen Americans

00:04:59.360 that are held hostage right now.

00:05:01.640 And I want to say

00:05:02.800 at the outset,

00:05:03.560 it is critical

00:05:04.500 that we should be unequivocal

00:05:08.040 that America stands squarely

00:05:10.940 with the state of Israel.

00:05:12.840 Amen.

00:05:16.400 It's also shocking,

00:05:18.580 I think,

00:05:19.200 to so many people

00:05:20.360 that there is such a divide

00:05:22.200 right now

00:05:22.840 on the issue of Israel

00:05:24.200 within the Democratic Party.

00:05:26.260 When you talk about

00:05:27.140 the atrocities

00:05:27.940 that you just mentioned,

00:05:29.380 it should be a pretty easy

00:05:30.940 political moment,

00:05:32.360 I would argue.

00:05:33.740 And 10, 15, 20 years ago,

00:05:36.240 this would not have been hard.

00:05:38.040 How is it that so many Democrats,

00:05:39.880 they're not just screwing it up,

00:05:41.000 they are actually advocating

00:05:43.480 for the terrorist organization,

00:05:46.320 for those supporting

00:05:47.180 the terrorist organization,

00:05:48.420 and we're witnessing it

00:05:49.640 in the streets in America,

00:05:50.860 we're witnessing it

00:05:51.520 on college campuses,

00:05:52.860 we're witnessing it

00:05:53.820 all over the world,

00:05:54.880 whether it's in Berlin,

00:05:55.900 whether it's in France,

00:05:56.960 whether it's at the Opera House

00:05:58.600 in Australia.

00:05:59.580 There are large groups of people

00:06:01.320 in countries all over the world

00:06:04.100 and college campuses

00:06:05.680 that are advocating

00:06:06.680 for Hamas and the Palestinians.

00:06:09.140 Look, it has been tragic to watch

00:06:10.900 that on the far left today,

00:06:13.380 there is a blatant strain

00:06:17.060 of hatred for Israel

00:06:19.400 and virulent anti-Semitism.

00:06:22.640 We see it in the House of Representatives

00:06:24.220 in the squad,

00:06:25.460 and the squad are viciously anti-Israel.

00:06:28.720 You and I on this podcast

00:06:29.720 talked about the video

00:06:30.880 of Rashida Tlaib

00:06:31.680 walking down the halls

00:06:33.420 of the House

00:06:34.700 when being asked,

00:06:36.060 what do you think

00:06:36.700 about women and children

00:06:37.560 being raped?

00:06:38.300 What do you think

00:06:38.880 about infants being murdered?

00:06:40.340 And she refused to answer.

00:06:41.940 And I will say

00:06:42.760 it has been tragic

00:06:43.860 to watch college campuses

00:06:46.040 across this country

00:06:47.100 as vicious anti-Semitism

00:06:49.260 has broken out.

00:06:50.560 This week,

00:06:51.280 I saw a video

00:06:52.480 from my alma mater,

00:06:53.540 from Harvard,

00:06:54.720 of a Jewish student

00:06:55.980 being harassed,

00:06:57.160 being threatened,

00:06:58.320 being surrounded

00:06:58.680 surrounded by angry protesters

00:07:00.760 screaming shame, shame, shame.

00:07:03.520 Look, I called on Harvard.

00:07:05.040 Any student doing that

00:07:06.380 to another student

00:07:07.260 should be expelled immediately.

00:07:12.780 But let me say something else, Ben,

00:07:15.480 because unfortunately

00:07:16.620 it's not just the radicals

00:07:18.460 in the House.

00:07:19.320 It's not just the radicals

00:07:20.900 on university campuses.

00:07:23.260 The Biden administration

00:07:24.880 from the very beginning

00:07:26.820 of this war

00:07:27.600 has systematically

00:07:28.620 undermined Israel.

00:07:30.520 When the war began

00:07:31.820 on October 7th,

00:07:33.740 early in the morning,

00:07:35.040 at 3 in the morning,

00:07:36.060 the State Department,

00:07:37.020 the Office of Palestinian Affairs,

00:07:38.680 tweeted out,

00:07:40.380 they said,

00:07:41.020 we condemn the attack of Hamas,

00:07:43.460 but we urge both sides

00:07:45.100 to engage in no retaliation,

00:07:47.600 no military acts.

00:07:49.640 Violence solves nothing.

00:07:51.520 This is literally,

00:07:52.620 as Israel is having

00:07:53.680 terrorists murder

00:07:54.740 that night,

00:07:56.400 upwards of 1,000 Israelis.

00:07:59.060 The U.S. State Department

00:08:00.500 said, Israel,

00:08:01.220 don't respond at all.

00:08:02.560 Do nothing.

00:08:03.280 Do not strike back

00:08:04.460 at the terrorists.

00:08:05.540 Now, my staff and I,

00:08:06.640 we spotted that tweet

00:08:07.760 at 3 in the morning.

00:08:10.200 And we condemned it loudly.

00:08:12.080 I said, look,

00:08:12.800 everyone involved

00:08:13.620 in drafting this tweet,

00:08:15.100 everyone involved

00:08:15.800 in approving it

00:08:16.520 should be fired.

00:08:17.540 The State Department,

00:08:18.660 within hours,

00:08:19.760 deleted the tweet.

00:08:20.500 The next day,

00:08:22.160 Tony Blinken,

00:08:22.840 the Secretary of State,

00:08:24.520 sent out another tweet.

00:08:26.220 He said he had just talked

00:08:27.620 with the Turkish

00:08:28.180 Foreign Minister

00:08:29.000 and they had agreed

00:08:30.460 that it was imperative

00:08:31.560 to have a ceasefire.

00:08:34.640 Understand that the word

00:08:36.000 ceasefire,

00:08:36.780 listen,

00:08:37.460 Hamas does not intend

00:08:38.600 to have a ceasefire

00:08:39.640 until they murder

00:08:40.760 every Jew they can find.

00:08:43.080 That's when they intend

00:08:44.180 to stop.

00:08:45.440 Prime Minister Netanyahu

00:08:46.580 has rightly said

00:08:47.700 that they are going

00:08:49.040 to utterly eliminate Hamas.

00:08:51.720 And every time you hear

00:08:52.960 a Democrat or the media

00:08:55.040 saying the word ceasefire,

00:08:59.380 what they are saying

00:09:00.600 is protect Hamas

00:09:01.760 and stop Israel

00:09:03.400 from retaliating.

00:09:04.840 Right now,

00:09:05.940 the U.S. Secretary of State,

00:09:07.240 Tony Blinken,

00:09:08.500 is in Israel

00:09:09.280 and he went there

00:09:11.220 to argue for what he called

00:09:13.200 a, quote,

00:09:14.440 humanitarian pause.

00:09:16.520 Yeah.

00:09:16.620 Now that's just

00:09:18.060 fancy Orwellian speak

00:09:19.740 for a ceasefire.

00:09:21.440 What he's saying

00:09:22.400 is Israel,

00:09:23.580 please don't kill

00:09:24.620 the terrorists.

00:09:25.280 He's also arguing,

00:09:26.860 Israel,

00:09:27.700 please give fuel

00:09:30.100 to the terrorists.

00:09:32.600 So in the Gaza Strip,

00:09:34.160 many of the Hamas terrorists

00:09:35.480 are in tunnels

00:09:36.480 that they have dug

00:09:37.300 underground.

00:09:38.360 Those tunnels

00:09:39.080 are ventilated,

00:09:40.160 they are powered

00:09:40.960 by fuel generators.

00:09:42.820 And so Israel has said,

00:09:44.000 we're cutting off

00:09:45.000 your fuel.

00:09:45.460 What is the Biden

00:09:47.080 State Department saying?

00:09:48.460 Send fuel in there.

00:09:49.680 The reason Israel's

00:09:50.580 cutting off the fuel

00:09:51.480 is to get the terrorists

00:09:52.960 out of the tunnels

00:09:53.840 so they can kill

00:09:55.220 the terrorists

00:09:56.120 who are targeting

00:09:57.160 and murdering civilians.

00:09:59.240 And I got to say,

00:10:00.900 and this is something,

00:10:01.900 so in the last three weeks,

00:10:04.240 this podcast,

00:10:05.240 we've done a deep dive

00:10:06.220 on what's happening

00:10:06.900 in Israel,

00:10:07.540 examining

00:10:08.080 the atrocities

00:10:10.960 that were carried out,

00:10:11.860 but also examining

00:10:13.000 the complicity

00:10:14.340 of the Biden administration.

00:10:15.400 It is funding

00:10:16.680 this attack.

00:10:17.880 It has flowed

00:10:18.560 over $100 billion

00:10:20.440 to Iran

00:10:21.720 who planned

00:10:23.180 and directed

00:10:23.880 this attack.

00:10:25.200 But not only that,

00:10:26.640 on this podcast,

00:10:27.540 we've explained

00:10:28.460 how the corporate media

00:10:29.540 is an integral part

00:10:31.500 of Hamas's war plan.

00:10:33.200 We had a podcast episode

00:10:34.400 that was entitled,

00:10:36.020 CNN

00:10:36.400 is Hamas's Air Force.

00:10:40.380 So is MSNBC,

00:10:42.240 so is ABC.

00:10:43.400 It's scary,

00:10:44.040 it's accurate.

00:10:44.500 It's terrifying.

00:10:45.320 Yeah.

00:10:45.700 And we went through

00:10:47.060 a dozen different clips,

00:10:49.440 including,

00:10:50.180 we played one

00:10:50.880 on this podcast.

00:10:51.920 By the way,

00:10:52.260 go back and download this.

00:10:53.340 If you did not

00:10:54.780 get to hear this,

00:10:56.220 this is why I love

00:10:57.480 doing this show with you

00:10:58.440 because we take time

00:11:00.140 and we pulled

00:11:01.120 all these clips

00:11:01.960 and we played them

00:11:03.060 back to back.

00:11:03.400 And you can't get it

00:11:03.840 anywhere else.

00:11:04.480 Yeah,

00:11:04.640 no one else is playing this

00:11:05.680 and we put it

00:11:06.280 back to back

00:11:07.060 to back to back

00:11:07.900 so you can watch

00:11:09.120 the American media

00:11:10.460 defend this

00:11:11.580 terrorist organization.

00:11:12.960 Well,

00:11:13.180 and one of the most

00:11:14.020 stunning is CNN

00:11:14.920 had a spokesperson

00:11:16.400 for the Palestinians

00:11:17.580 who went on CNN

00:11:19.520 and said,

00:11:21.200 Hamas only attacks

00:11:22.740 military targets,

00:11:23.820 they never attack

00:11:24.580 civilians,

00:11:25.420 and the Israelis

00:11:27.020 deliberately target

00:11:28.480 civilians.

00:11:30.480 And CNN sat there

00:11:32.260 as they utterly lied,

00:11:33.720 they erred globally,

00:11:35.680 terrorist propaganda,

00:11:38.120 which is exactly

00:11:39.180 opposite of the truth.

00:11:40.280 And I'll point out,

00:11:40.940 not only is it the case

00:11:42.620 that Hamas deliberately

00:11:43.700 was murdering civilians,

00:11:44.740 and by the way,

00:11:45.560 they don't keep this

00:11:46.360 a secret.

00:11:47.380 They videoed themselves

00:11:48.640 and put the videos

00:11:49.620 out for the world.

00:11:50.540 They're proud of it.

00:11:52.160 But not only that,

00:11:53.360 the Israelis go

00:11:54.400 to extraordinary lengths,

00:11:55.940 more than any military

00:11:57.780 on the face of the planet

00:11:58.820 to avoid civilian deaths.

00:12:00.280 Now, tragically,

00:12:02.840 we know there will be

00:12:03.720 Palestinian civilian deaths,

00:12:05.120 but the reason for that

00:12:06.160 is Hamas deliberately

00:12:07.720 using human shields.

00:12:09.560 They want Palestinian

00:12:11.120 civilians to die.

00:12:12.340 So, for example,

00:12:13.640 they put their military

00:12:14.560 headquarters in the basement

00:12:15.680 of a hospital.

00:12:16.760 They put missiles

00:12:17.880 in kindergarten classrooms

00:12:19.960 because when the Israelis

00:12:21.080 take out military targets,

00:12:23.340 they want there to be

00:12:25.540 dead Palestinians

00:12:26.620 because they then know,

00:12:28.640 Hamas knows they're not

00:12:29.740 strong enough

00:12:30.360 to defeat Israel.

00:12:32.480 But their plan

00:12:33.540 is for the useful idiots

00:12:35.120 in the global media

00:12:36.300 to take those images

00:12:38.260 and demonize Israel,

00:12:40.320 which is why it is

00:12:41.220 so important

00:12:42.020 to speak out

00:12:43.080 and speak the truth.

00:12:44.140 One of the things

00:12:44.900 about being here

00:12:45.840 at the Goldwater Institute

00:12:46.720 for this event

00:12:47.600 is we get to talk

00:12:48.720 about a subject

00:12:49.320 that's really important

00:12:50.320 that I know many of you

00:12:51.460 care about,

00:12:52.520 and that's an issue

00:12:53.360 at the Supreme Court.

00:12:54.420 There is a really

00:12:56.860 important week coming up

00:12:58.480 that deals with

00:12:59.120 the Supreme Court, Senator,

00:13:00.200 and I want you to talk

00:13:01.240 about this,

00:13:02.180 a vote that's coming up

00:13:03.260 in judiciary

00:13:03.800 and it's not being

00:13:05.720 covered by anyone.

00:13:06.740 Yep.

00:13:07.140 And it's going to have

00:13:08.160 or could have

00:13:08.820 major consequences,

00:13:10.180 and part of this

00:13:11.180 is the left's

00:13:12.380 clear vision

00:13:14.960 to change

00:13:16.180 or alter the Supreme Court

00:13:17.540 and how the American

00:13:18.680 people look at it,

00:13:19.520 how they view it,

00:13:20.700 undermining the Supreme Court,

00:13:22.500 undermining directly

00:13:23.580 justices,

00:13:24.420 influencing justice.

00:13:25.580 We saw this

00:13:26.160 with Roe v. Wade

00:13:26.880 and the leaking

00:13:27.880 of that document beforehand.

00:13:29.520 We saw how the left

00:13:31.020 allowed them to go

00:13:32.040 after these Supreme Court

00:13:33.040 justices at their homes

00:13:34.020 and no one was held

00:13:35.120 accountable for that either.

00:13:36.660 So the left

00:13:37.680 has been engaged

00:13:38.680 in a multi-year

00:13:39.820 systematic effort

00:13:41.000 to undermine

00:13:42.540 and delegitimize

00:13:43.840 the Supreme Court.

00:13:45.700 They view it

00:13:46.580 as the one institution

00:13:47.640 of government.

00:13:48.320 They don't have

00:13:48.660 a stranglehold on it.

00:13:50.080 Yeah.

00:13:50.420 And so their intention

00:13:51.760 is to destroy the court.

00:13:53.220 And it has featured

00:13:54.880 things including

00:13:55.700 Chuck Schumer

00:13:56.460 standing on the steps

00:13:58.040 of the court

00:13:58.640 threatening justices

00:14:00.480 by name

00:14:01.200 and saying

00:14:02.120 if you do not rule

00:14:03.140 the way he wants them to

00:14:04.600 that you have

00:14:05.800 unleashed

00:14:06.660 the whirlwind

00:14:07.720 and you will pay

00:14:09.280 the price.

00:14:09.840 We saw

00:14:11.420 we saw the leak

00:14:12.380 of the Supreme Court's

00:14:13.980 Dobbs decision.

00:14:14.820 We then also have seen

00:14:16.080 week after week

00:14:17.540 month after month

00:14:18.640 angry violent protesters

00:14:20.520 outside the homes

00:14:22.040 of Supreme Court justices.

00:14:23.760 Now it's a federal crime

00:14:25.000 to protest

00:14:26.460 at the home

00:14:27.220 of a federal judge

00:14:28.200 trying to influence

00:14:29.320 the outcome

00:14:29.860 of an election.

00:14:30.620 Let's just say that again

00:14:31.560 because I don't think

00:14:32.120 people realize that

00:14:32.700 of any federal judge

00:14:33.840 not just Supreme Court.

00:14:35.500 You can't go

00:14:36.360 and threaten

00:14:36.860 a federal judge

00:14:37.680 at their home.

00:14:38.120 It's a federal crime.

00:14:39.120 Now the Biden

00:14:40.120 Justice Department

00:14:40.980 you know how many people

00:14:41.820 they prosecuted

00:14:42.640 for violating that law?

00:14:45.360 Zero.

00:14:46.320 Not a single one.

00:14:48.080 Now it got so bad

00:14:49.280 there was one lunatic

00:14:50.820 that traveled

00:14:51.500 from California

00:14:52.420 all the way

00:14:53.800 to Bethesda, Maryland.

00:14:54.940 He brought a gun

00:14:55.740 he brought a knife

00:14:56.780 he brought duct tape

00:14:57.820 and he came there

00:14:58.680 to murder

00:14:59.560 Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

00:15:01.540 He was apprehended.

00:15:03.440 He's being prosecuted

00:15:04.700 for attempted murder.

00:15:06.480 But every night

00:15:07.720 and he should be

00:15:08.460 but every night

00:15:09.740 the people who are

00:15:10.440 committing criminal

00:15:11.200 criminal offenses

00:15:12.100 in front of the

00:15:13.280 justices' houses

00:15:14.140 trying to intimidate them

00:15:16.040 the Biden Department

00:15:16.840 of Justice Merrick Garland

00:15:18.100 refuses to follow

00:15:19.900 federal law.

00:15:20.720 So the latest iteration

00:15:22.960 in the Democrats' efforts

00:15:24.160 to undermine

00:15:24.720 the Supreme Court

00:15:25.580 is they have been

00:15:27.380 targeting a smear campaign

00:15:28.960 directed at Clarence Thomas.

00:15:30.920 Now I know

00:15:31.420 Justice Thomas very well.

00:15:33.320 I believe

00:15:33.900 Justice Clarence Thomas

00:15:35.060 is an American hero.

00:15:36.960 He's an extraordinary man

00:15:43.720 he's a brilliant man

00:15:44.620 actually I want to

00:15:45.120 take a digression

00:15:45.760 he's so funny by the way

00:15:47.000 I want to tell you

00:15:47.860 a fun story

00:15:48.720 about Justice Thomas

00:15:49.620 so I was a law clerk

00:15:51.660 at the Supreme Court

00:15:52.540 from 1996 to 1997

00:15:54.280 and when I was

00:15:55.560 clerking at the court

00:15:56.380 I clerked for Chief

00:15:58.420 Justice William Rehnquist

00:15:59.460 I got to know

00:16:00.080 Justice Thomas

00:16:00.740 very well

00:16:01.320 and at the time

00:16:03.560 two stories

00:16:04.220 about Justice Thomas

00:16:05.020 number one

00:16:05.840 one of my co-clerks

00:16:07.100 was a guy named Rick Gardner

00:16:08.060 he's a professor of law

00:16:08.980 at Notre Dame

00:16:09.480 and Rick and his wife

00:16:11.260 had tutored

00:16:12.540 a young African American kid

00:16:15.220 in Arkansas

00:16:15.780 the year before

00:16:16.440 his name was Carlos

00:16:17.140 he was a 7th grader

00:16:18.060 and Rick and Nicole said

00:16:20.260 okay we want to fly Carlos

00:16:21.640 to Washington DC

00:16:22.920 he'd never left Arkansas

00:16:24.900 he'd never seen it

00:16:25.700 and they said

00:16:26.040 we want to bring him there

00:16:26.800 and so Carlos came

00:16:28.800 and Rick sent an email

00:16:29.740 to all nine Supreme Court

00:16:30.900 justices

00:16:31.440 and he said

00:16:32.480 hey this kid

00:16:33.180 my wife and I tutored

00:16:34.240 is coming

00:16:35.600 would you be willing

00:16:36.460 to meet with him

00:16:37.200 two said yes

00:16:39.480 Ruth Bader Ginsburg

00:16:41.040 and Clarence Thomas

00:16:41.900 now Ruth Bader Ginsburg

00:16:43.900 it was very nice

00:16:44.800 of her to meet with him

00:16:45.840 and they had a conversation

00:16:47.860 but look

00:16:48.380 it was a little stilted

00:16:49.840 she was very prim

00:16:51.000 she was very proper

00:16:52.480 she was like a librarian

00:16:53.540 and for a kid

00:16:55.580 who grew up

00:16:56.120 in rural Arkansas

00:16:56.920 it was difficult

00:16:57.660 to understand

00:16:58.680 and really connect

00:17:00.220 with Mrs. Ginsburg

00:17:01.320 but it was very gracious

00:17:02.960 of her to say yes

00:17:03.900 the other who said yes

00:17:05.880 was Clarence Thomas

00:17:06.720 now Clarence Thomas

00:17:08.240 grew up in Pinpoint, Georgia

00:17:09.700 Pinpoint is a tiny

00:17:10.960 rural town in Georgia

00:17:12.200 he grew up

00:17:13.400 in abject poverty

00:17:14.600 and he sat there

00:17:16.200 talking with Carlos

00:17:17.360 he spent over an hour

00:17:18.500 with his 7th grade kid

00:17:20.520 talking with him

00:17:21.420 at the end of the discussion

00:17:23.720 Carlos

00:17:25.960 the Supreme Court

00:17:26.860 didn't mean a whole lot

00:17:27.700 to him

00:17:28.060 but Justice Thomas

00:17:30.180 had a picture of himself

00:17:31.520 with Troy Aikman

00:17:32.220 he's a huge Dallas Cowboys fan

00:17:33.800 and that impressed Carlos

00:17:36.520 like wow

00:17:37.180 that's a big deal

00:17:38.820 you know Aikman

00:17:39.680 that's yeah

00:17:40.180 you're in

00:17:40.860 and Justice Thomas

00:17:43.020 saw how impressed he was

00:17:44.680 and he had on his desk

00:17:45.780 he had a ticket

00:17:46.620 to the Super Bowl

00:17:48.080 encased in Lucite

00:17:50.620 and signed by Emmett Smith

00:17:52.300 and he grabbed it

00:17:54.180 off his desk

00:17:54.780 he said Carlos

00:17:55.440 I'm going to give you

00:17:55.980 this ticket

00:17:56.400 but he said

00:17:58.480 I want you to promise me

00:18:00.400 you're going to get A's

00:18:02.160 in school next year

00:18:03.040 and Carlos

00:18:04.980 with wide open eyes

00:18:06.420 nodded and said

00:18:07.320 yes sir I will

00:18:08.360 that's one day

00:18:10.040 that was never reported

00:18:11.020 that was never commented

00:18:11.900 there were no cameras there

00:18:13.000 that's who Justice Thomas is

00:18:14.960 here's a second story

00:18:15.820 so my college roommate

00:18:18.140 and best friend

00:18:19.360 other than Heidi

00:18:20.080 it's a guy you know well

00:18:21.580 David Panton

00:18:22.260 oh yeah

00:18:22.740 he is Jamaican

00:18:24.220 he is an extraordinary guy

00:18:26.380 and he was president

00:18:28.700 of the Harvard Law Review

00:18:29.760 so the first black president

00:18:31.980 of the Harvard Law Review

00:18:32.820 was a guy named Barack Obama

00:18:34.200 I'm not sure what he went on

00:18:36.220 to do after that

00:18:37.000 you can google it

00:18:39.140 if you need to check that out later

00:18:40.300 the second black president

00:18:42.120 of the Harvard Law Review

00:18:43.020 was my old roommate

00:18:43.980 David Panton

00:18:44.580 and so David

00:18:46.440 when I was clerking

00:18:47.380 he said look

00:18:47.980 I'd really love to meet

00:18:48.960 Justice Thomas

00:18:49.600 and so I asked the justice

00:18:51.120 hey my roommate's

00:18:52.680 president of the Law Review

00:18:53.420 would you be willing

00:18:54.000 to meet with him

00:18:54.480 he said sure

00:18:54.920 so they came

00:18:57.280 David came up

00:18:58.960 and the two of them sat

00:18:59.960 and I sat in on the meeting

00:19:00.960 they spent again

00:19:01.700 about an hour

00:19:02.240 hour and a half

00:19:02.740 talking

00:19:03.060 got along famously

00:19:04.400 Justice Thomas

00:19:06.940 wanted David

00:19:07.580 to come clerk for him

00:19:08.580 and David

00:19:10.240 David is

00:19:10.860 in private equity

00:19:12.160 he's gone into business

00:19:13.060 and David says

00:19:14.480 David says

00:19:16.020 no no no

00:19:16.760 I leave

00:19:18.060 he's Jamaican

00:19:18.900 so he has this

00:19:19.420 lilting Jamaican accent

00:19:20.560 he goes no no no

00:19:21.280 I leave law

00:19:22.900 to the smart people

00:19:24.380 and Justice Thomas

00:19:27.080 leans forward

00:19:27.760 and says

00:19:28.180 so do I

00:19:29.060 and it was just

00:19:32.100 I'm sitting there

00:19:32.780 like holy cow

00:19:33.580 how am I sitting there

00:19:34.520 watching this

00:19:35.560 extraordinary exchange

00:19:36.760 by the way

00:19:37.300 side note

00:19:37.860 because this is the best

00:19:38.800 part about doing this show

00:19:39.480 and they're both brilliant

00:19:40.280 both brilliant

00:19:40.840 but this is the best part

00:19:41.540 about doing this show

00:19:42.140 I get to pull back the curtain

00:19:43.480 you are obsessed

00:19:45.100 with basketball

00:19:45.800 people may not realize that

00:19:47.940 you play

00:19:48.580 at least what

00:19:49.400 twice a week

00:19:50.080 I play twice a week

00:19:50.960 obsessed is strong

00:19:52.080 I should have a better game

00:19:53.340 if I was actually obsessed

00:19:54.240 you love it

00:19:54.300 you love basketball

00:19:55.220 it is your thing

00:19:56.520 Clarence Thomas likes basketball

00:19:58.080 he does

00:19:58.940 he used to play

00:19:59.320 did you ever play

00:20:00.080 did y'all ever play

00:20:00.860 when you were working

00:20:01.560 no and sadly I didn't

00:20:02.900 because his wife Jenny

00:20:03.800 won't let him play anymore

00:20:04.680 he hurt his knee

00:20:05.320 he used to play

00:20:06.560 we begged him to come out

00:20:07.860 and play

00:20:08.280 now Byron White

00:20:09.920 who was

00:20:11.800 who was

00:20:12.500 okay here's an interesting

00:20:14.060 bit of trivia

00:20:14.600 sorry we're taking

00:20:15.200 a total digression

00:20:15.940 but the fun thing

00:20:16.480 about a podcast

00:20:17.000 is we can do that

00:20:18.420 alright so let's do

00:20:20.200 a little bit of history

00:20:21.080 World War II

00:20:23.180 a boat

00:20:26.760 known as PT-109

00:20:28.900 is sunk in World War II

00:20:30.120 an intelligence report

00:20:33.180 is written

00:20:34.260 that describes

00:20:36.560 in the sinking of PT-109

00:20:38.400 incredible heroism

00:20:40.180 from a young sailor

00:20:42.960 by the name of

00:20:44.000 John Fitzgerald Kennedy

00:20:45.120 and this intelligence report

00:20:47.160 described

00:20:47.940 Kennedy as an incredible hero

00:20:49.820 fast forward 20 years

00:20:52.800 and JFK's president

00:20:53.940 JFK appointed one

00:20:56.260 and only one person

00:20:57.140 to the Supreme Court

00:20:57.880 do you know who that was

00:20:58.660 I don't

00:20:59.260 Byron White

00:21:00.700 do you know who wrote

00:21:02.060 the intelligence report

00:21:03.020 Byron White

00:21:05.020 that is the absolute

00:21:07.180 that's one way to get

00:21:07.740 on the Supreme Court

00:21:08.500 I guess right

00:21:09.060 that's the easiest way

00:21:09.820 it is the absolute truth

00:21:10.920 now Byron White

00:21:12.300 is someone that I think

00:21:14.720 would only exist

00:21:15.840 in like a

00:21:16.620 a fictional

00:21:17.520 Tom Wolfe book

00:21:18.660 Byron White

00:21:20.880 was second

00:21:23.740 in the balloting

00:21:24.520 for the Heisman Trophy

00:21:25.620 Byron White

00:21:28.300 was first

00:21:30.080 in his class

00:21:30.880 at Yale Law School

00:21:31.860 and the same year

00:21:34.360 he was first

00:21:34.980 in the class

00:21:35.600 in the Yale Law School

00:21:36.520 he led the NFL

00:21:38.640 in rushing

00:21:39.180 wow

00:21:40.800 like holy cow

00:21:42.580 who does that

00:21:43.440 and so

00:21:45.000 when I clerked

00:21:46.020 Byron White

00:21:46.500 was retired

00:21:47.080 he was like 80

00:21:47.860 and he used to play

00:21:50.120 play hoops

00:21:50.700 with the law clerks

00:21:51.460 and so

00:21:52.400 at the Supreme Court

00:21:53.780 there's a basketball court

00:21:54.920 and the basketball court

00:21:56.860 guess what it's named

00:21:57.640 by the way

00:21:58.040 it's at the top

00:21:59.140 and so the floor

00:22:01.140 of the court

00:22:01.860 is the ceiling

00:22:02.800 of the courtroom

00:22:03.480 so they don't let you

00:22:04.240 play during an argument

00:22:05.200 because you can literally

00:22:06.160 hear the dribbling

00:22:06.920 through the ceiling

00:22:07.540 and it's nicknamed

00:22:09.260 the Supreme Court

00:22:11.380 no no no no

00:22:12.560 that's what I was told

00:22:13.480 no no no

00:22:13.800 it's wrong

00:22:14.340 all right

00:22:14.700 I was told

00:22:15.780 I was told

00:22:16.320 it was the Supreme Court

00:22:17.200 all right what is it

00:22:17.900 it's nickname

00:22:18.540 is the highest court

00:22:19.540 in the land

00:22:19.900 oh well okay

00:22:20.560 there you go

00:22:21.020 but Byron White

00:22:23.840 used to play

00:22:24.660 and he was

00:22:25.440 look the guy

00:22:26.460 led the NFL

00:22:27.280 in rushing

00:22:27.900 he was a massive guy

00:22:29.620 and apparently

00:22:30.820 he'd play with

00:22:31.560 pencil neck law clerks

00:22:32.720 and he would foul

00:22:33.720 like crazy

00:22:34.560 and just throw them down

00:22:36.180 nothing he would do

00:22:37.840 would ever be a foul

00:22:38.680 and he would just

00:22:39.320 brutalize them

00:22:40.200 when I was clerking

00:22:41.960 he was like 80

00:22:42.720 so we couldn't get him

00:22:43.600 to play

00:22:43.960 but I just shook his hands

00:22:45.280 and like his fingers

00:22:47.220 were the diameter

00:22:48.700 of a quarter

00:22:49.340 I mean it was weird

00:22:50.940 so he didn't play anymore

00:22:53.900 and sadly

00:22:54.480 Justice Thomas

00:22:55.160 didn't play anymore

00:22:55.920 when I was there either

00:22:56.720 because Ginny

00:22:57.300 wouldn't let him

00:22:57.900 because he hurt

00:22:58.820 his knee playing

00:22:59.520 when you clerked

00:23:00.380 last question on this

00:23:01.300 and then we'll get back

00:23:01.980 to this vote this week

00:23:03.040 but I gotta ask

00:23:03.800 what was the coolest part

00:23:05.380 about clerking

00:23:05.880 in the Supreme Court

00:23:06.540 being part of

00:23:10.260 the decision making

00:23:11.180 so I clerked

00:23:12.300 for Chief Justice Rehnquist

00:23:13.440 he was an extraordinary man

00:23:15.880 he was someone

00:23:16.800 he was born

00:23:17.600 in Milwaukee

00:23:19.480 he was born

00:23:21.440 in a blue collar family

00:23:23.160 he enlisted

00:23:26.100 in the army

00:23:27.240 in World War II

00:23:27.980 so he was a sergeant

00:23:29.980 he was a weather observer

00:23:31.140 in North Africa

00:23:31.960 during World War II

00:23:32.820 it's one of the really

00:23:34.940 cool things

00:23:35.620 I've always loved

00:23:36.380 that the Chief Justice

00:23:37.180 of the United States

00:23:38.080 was not an officer

00:23:39.300 he was an enlisted man

00:23:41.220 and years later

00:23:43.020 when he was serving

00:23:43.640 on the court

00:23:44.100 Lewis Powell

00:23:44.780 who served with him

00:23:45.600 was a colonel

00:23:46.480 in World War II

00:23:47.180 and Powell used to say

00:23:49.840 you know

00:23:51.220 I outrank you

00:23:52.360 and the Chief Justice

00:23:54.220 would say

00:23:54.680 oh not anymore

00:23:55.980 but Rehnquist

00:24:00.100 was spectacularly brilliant

00:24:02.680 so he had a purely

00:24:06.860 photographic memory

00:24:08.040 at a level

00:24:08.620 I've never seen

00:24:09.560 anyone else

00:24:10.260 so here's an amazing story

00:24:12.360 so Rehnquist

00:24:13.640 graduated from

00:24:14.380 Stanford Law School

00:24:15.240 he was first

00:24:17.000 in his class

00:24:17.560 at Stanford

00:24:18.120 in the same class

00:24:20.560 was Sandra Day O'Connor

00:24:21.660 she was third

00:24:22.440 in her class

00:24:22.820 no way

00:24:23.460 at Stanford

00:24:24.120 I've always wondered

00:24:25.820 what happened

00:24:26.320 to the poor

00:24:26.740 schlub who was second

00:24:27.500 yeah

00:24:28.360 so Rehnquist

00:24:30.520 and O'Connor

00:24:31.400 dated

00:24:32.280 they dated

00:24:34.660 in law school

00:24:35.480 and they actually

00:24:37.560 he asked her

00:24:38.440 to marry him

00:24:39.140 and she said no

00:24:41.280 now as y'all know

00:24:43.820 Sandra Day O'Connor

00:24:44.840 came back to Arizona

00:24:46.460 was an Arizona legend

00:24:47.900 was the Senate

00:24:49.260 majority leader

00:24:50.140 here in the state

00:24:50.820 of Arizona

00:24:51.300 and they served together

00:24:53.480 and she and her husband

00:24:54.520 and he and his wife

00:24:56.520 were friends

00:24:57.560 for 50 years

00:24:58.340 they were very close friends

00:24:59.500 a great story

00:25:00.540 from Sandra Day O'Connor

00:25:01.500 so when she was

00:25:02.820 Sandra Day

00:25:03.420 and she was dating

00:25:04.100 John O'Connor

00:25:04.840 she describes

00:25:06.240 in her autobiography

00:25:07.240 how she brought

00:25:08.820 this young

00:25:09.660 Stanford law student

00:25:10.600 she was dating

00:25:11.260 back to meet her dad

00:25:12.240 on the ranch

00:25:12.840 and she said

00:25:14.300 that day

00:25:15.040 dad just happened

00:25:17.040 to be castrating calves

00:25:18.540 just happened to be

00:25:21.520 and she writes

00:25:22.000 in the book

00:25:22.500 I wonder if he was

00:25:23.460 trying to send a message

00:25:24.500 that's like

00:25:25.880 gun cleaning night

00:25:26.640 in the south

00:25:27.120 when you just have

00:25:28.000 to have a daughter

00:25:28.580 having a date

00:25:29.260 right

00:25:29.520 as the father

00:25:30.720 of two daughters

00:25:31.640 I find that exquisite

00:25:33.620 Patriot Mobile

00:25:37.320 for 10 years

00:25:38.300 has been America's

00:25:39.360 only Christian

00:25:40.440 conservative

00:25:40.960 wireless provider

00:25:45.060 the only one

00:25:45.920 the team at Patriot Mobile

00:26:07.060 against your values

00:26:07.860 you may not realize

00:26:08.880 that the Big Mobile

00:26:11.340 millions to liberal

00:26:13.080 democrats

00:26:18.500 has decided to do

00:26:19.340 something else

00:26:33.100 the lives of

00:26:34.200 unborn children

00:26:35.280 it is pretty awesome

00:26:36.960 and then every month

00:26:37.980 when you pay your bill

00:26:38.920 they take a portion

00:26:40.160 of your bill

00:26:40.620 at no extra cost

00:26:41.340 to you

00:26:41.520 and they give it back

00:26:42.200 to hardcore

00:26:43.260 conservative Christian

00:26:44.600 organizations

00:26:45.220 they stand up

00:26:45.960 for freedom of speech

00:26:47.340 religious freedom

00:28:00.380 and explain what the plan

00:28:02.260 is for the Democrats

00:28:04.060 to accomplish

00:28:04.540 so the Democrats

00:28:07.080 subpoenas for three people

00:28:08.260 for Harlan Crowe

00:28:10.400 for Leonard Leo

00:28:12.060 and for Robin Arkley

00:28:14.180 the second

00:28:14.600 now all three of them

00:28:15.980 Harlan Crowe

00:28:17.240 is a very successful

00:28:18.120 businessman in Texas

00:28:19.360 Leonard Leo

00:28:20.400 is a very close friend

00:28:21.780 who has helped

00:28:23.700 lead the Federalist Society

00:28:25.000 for 30 years

00:28:25.860 I've known Leonard Leo

00:28:26.840 for 30 years

00:28:27.720 he's been actively involved

00:28:29.640 in fighting to confirm

00:28:30.860 conservative Supreme Court

00:28:32.520 justices for 30 years

00:28:33.920 the purpose of this subpoena

00:28:36.480 is there is a

00:28:37.960 concerted smear campaign

00:28:40.640 directed

00:28:41.260 at Justice Thomas

00:28:42.780 and so you've seen

00:28:43.680 the stories about

00:28:44.520 Justice Thomas

00:28:45.660 flew on a private plane

00:28:46.960 Justice Thomas

00:28:47.840 was the guest

00:28:49.620 at the vacation home

00:28:50.900 of a billionaire

00:28:51.940 and so he must be corrupt

00:28:53.500 now

00:28:54.640 I'm going to tell you

00:28:55.880 two things

00:28:56.600 about that

00:28:57.520 smear campaign

00:28:58.920 number one

00:29:00.540 it is utterly

00:29:02.700 and completely

00:29:03.900 hypocritical

00:29:04.800 in that

00:29:06.560 if you look at

00:29:08.100 the numbers

00:29:09.420 from 2004

00:29:11.640 to 2018

00:29:12.640 the justices

00:29:15.480 disclosed

00:29:16.120 how many trips

00:29:16.660 do you think they took

00:29:17.340 the nine justices?

00:29:18.180 I have no idea

00:29:19.680 1,306

00:29:21.720 that's a hell of a lot

00:29:22.860 of travel

00:29:23.260 that's nine people

00:29:24.200 they travel a lot

00:29:26.140 six of the Supreme Court's

00:29:28.400 nine members

00:29:28.980 received paid trips

00:29:29.980 to Europe

00:29:30.520 in 2014

00:29:31.480 including Berlin

00:29:33.000 London

00:29:33.520 Zurich

00:29:34.180 Justice Stephen Breyer

00:29:38.180 was repeatedly

00:29:40.380 flown around

00:29:41.240 by the billionaire

00:29:41.960 Pritzker family

00:29:42.860 from Chicago

00:29:43.540 by the way

00:29:44.160 one of whom

00:29:44.920 is the Democrat

00:29:45.500 Governor of Illinois

00:29:46.280 right now

00:29:47.000 Justice Sotomayor

00:29:49.560 likewise

00:29:50.120 flew all over

00:29:50.940 the place

00:29:51.280 Justice Ruth Bader

00:29:52.140 Ginsburg

00:29:52.540 flew all over

00:29:53.620 the place

00:29:54.080 Justice Breyer

00:29:55.480 took more

00:29:57.400 reimbursed trips

00:29:58.840 219

00:30:00.500 than any other

00:30:03.260 member

00:30:03.640 from 2004

00:30:04.640 to 2018

00:30:05.640 and the attack

00:30:08.140 that's directed

00:30:08.800 at Clarence Thomas

00:30:09.600 look

00:30:09.920 if you want to

00:30:11.360 argue Supreme Court

00:30:12.320 justices

00:30:12.920 shouldn't be able

00:30:13.600 to fly on trips

00:30:15.060 or on private planes

00:30:16.040 fine

00:30:16.580 if you want to

00:30:17.100 talk about rules

00:30:17.940 that apply to everyone

00:30:19.120 that's fine

00:30:19.600 that's a reasonable

00:30:20.320 conversation

00:30:21.020 what's not reasonable

00:30:22.940 is to say

00:30:23.720 we're going to attack

00:30:24.740 Clarence Thomas

00:30:25.440 for doing the same

00:30:26.280 thing the other

00:30:26.880 eight justices

00:30:27.500 are doing

00:30:28.040 and we're going to

00:30:28.760 hypocritically apply

00:30:29.720 rules to him

00:30:30.620 that don't apply

00:30:31.540 to anyone else

00:30:32.280 now let me tell you

00:30:32.920 something on top

00:30:33.600 of that

00:30:33.940 which is

00:30:35.900 this smear campaign

00:30:37.800 is funded by

00:30:41.160 and is driven by

00:30:42.420 in particular

00:30:43.100 ProPublica

00:30:44.180 that has been

00:30:45.600 the organization

00:30:46.520 that's putting out

00:30:47.440 all of these

00:30:48.440 attack pieces

00:30:49.120 now who is

00:30:49.700 ProPublica

00:30:50.320 funded by

00:30:51.000 I'm going to

00:30:52.200 quote from

00:30:53.080 the Daily Caller

00:30:53.860 quote

00:30:54.260 non-profit news

00:30:55.900 outlet

00:30:56.220 ProPublica

00:30:57.020 which published

00:30:57.600 multiple stories

00:30:58.520 detailing

00:30:59.060 Supreme Court

00:31:00.000 Justice Clarence

00:31:00.760 Thomas

00:31:01.040 alleged ethics

00:31:02.020 violations

00:31:02.640 has many

00:31:04.420 of the same

00:31:05.160 donors

00:31:05.600 as multiple

00:31:06.420 groups

00:31:06.940 actively

00:31:07.920 campaigning

00:31:08.680 for Thomas

00:31:09.480 to be

00:31:10.520 investigated

00:31:11.140 or resign

00:31:11.960 the Sandler

00:31:13.020 Foundation

00:31:13.460 which launched

00:31:14.340 ProPublica

00:31:15.060 in 2007

00:31:15.980 and is the

00:31:17.080 news outlet's

00:31:18.080 largest donor

00:31:18.920 has given it

00:31:20.340 almost 40

00:31:21.440 million dollars

00:31:22.660 since 2010

00:31:24.360 for general

00:31:24.940 support

00:31:25.360 the Sandler

00:31:26.320 Foundation

00:31:26.860 has also given

00:31:27.620 over 7.5

00:31:28.900 million dollars

00:31:29.660 to the campaign

00:31:30.940 legal center

00:31:31.640 since 2015

00:31:32.480 and over 6

00:31:33.960 million dollars

00:31:34.700 to the American

00:31:35.280 Constitutional

00:31:36.200 Society

00:31:36.760 for general

00:31:37.760 support

00:31:38.160 since 2010

00:31:39.140 those are all

00:31:40.600 rabid left-wing

00:31:41.940 organizations

00:31:42.540 so understand

00:31:43.200 this smear

00:31:43.780 campaign

00:31:44.280 is driven

00:31:46.040 by left-wing

00:31:46.780 billionaires

00:31:47.420 and it is

00:31:48.920 funded to

00:31:49.660 delegitimize

00:31:50.600 the Supreme

00:31:51.140 Court

00:31:51.420 and in

00:31:51.700 particular

00:31:52.280 the left

00:31:53.440 hates

00:31:54.080 Clarence

00:31:54.560 Thomas

00:31:54.860 and they

00:31:56.140 hate him

00:31:56.800 with an

00:31:58.300 intensity

00:31:58.900 that is

00:32:00.480 different

00:32:00.800 from any

00:32:01.180 other

00:32:01.400 conservative

00:32:01.820 justice

00:32:02.220 look

00:32:02.460 I knew

00:32:02.820 Antonin

00:32:03.200 Scalia

00:32:03.460 very well

00:32:04.100 he was

00:32:04.980 brilliant

00:32:05.380 he was

00:32:05.740 an

00:32:05.860 extraordinary

00:32:06.320 justice

00:32:06.980 he was

00:32:08.100 every bit

00:32:08.520 as

00:32:08.680 conservative

00:32:09.120 as Clarence

00:32:09.740 Thomas

00:32:10.020 and yet

00:32:10.680 the left

00:32:11.180 did not

00:32:11.780 heap

00:32:12.600 contempt

00:32:13.320 on Antonin

00:32:14.940 Scalia

00:32:15.260 the way

00:32:15.680 they do

00:32:16.040 justice

00:32:16.480 Thomas

00:32:16.820 the left's

00:32:17.880 view

00:32:18.280 is for a

00:32:19.760 black man

00:32:20.540 to dare

00:32:21.420 to be

00:32:21.820 conservative

00:32:22.380 is an

00:32:24.320 unacceptable

00:32:25.040 crime

00:32:25.580 is something

00:32:26.160 that has

00:32:26.940 to be

00:32:27.240 punished

00:32:27.580 the left

00:32:28.200 refers to

00:32:29.380 they do

00:32:29.740 magazine

00:32:30.420 covers

00:32:31.080 with pictures

00:32:32.760 of Clarence

00:32:33.460 Thomas

00:32:33.800 as an

00:32:34.560 Uncle Tom

00:32:35.580 sitting at

00:32:36.840 the feet

00:32:37.200 of Antonin

00:32:37.640 Scalia

00:32:38.100 it is

00:32:38.780 bigoted

00:32:39.300 it's

00:32:39.860 racist

00:32:40.500 it's

00:32:41.020 a lie

00:32:41.660 it's

00:32:42.180 immoral

00:32:42.780 and this

00:32:43.280 viciousness

00:32:43.940 directed at

00:32:44.520 Clarence

00:32:44.840 Thomas

00:32:45.140 these subpoenas

00:32:46.220 we're going to

00:32:46.680 vote on

00:32:47.100 this week

00:32:47.780 in the

00:32:48.280 judiciary

00:32:48.680 committee

00:32:49.100 the democrats

00:32:49.740 are going to

00:32:50.420 have the votes

00:32:50.940 to issue

00:32:51.320 them from

00:32:51.640 judiciary

00:32:52.260 but the

00:32:53.420 good news

00:32:53.940 is they

00:32:54.260 don't have

00:32:54.600 legal force

00:32:55.260 unless they

00:32:55.720 get 60

00:32:56.820 votes on the

00:32:57.440 floor of the

00:32:57.940 senate

00:32:58.180 and the

00:32:58.820 chances of

00:32:59.280 that happening

00:32:59.880 are zero

00:33:00.640 thank goodness

00:33:01.740 for that

00:33:02.240 before we

00:33:04.780 get into

00:33:05.220 Q&A

00:33:05.880 I want to

00:33:06.760 ask you

00:33:07.220 one other

00:33:07.620 thing

00:33:07.960 and it's

00:33:08.440 it's the

00:33:08.920 issue

00:33:09.340 and I

00:33:09.740 have a

00:33:10.080 feeling

00:33:10.360 a lot

00:33:10.660 of people

00:33:10.900 are going

00:33:11.100 to like

00:33:11.380 this idea

00:33:12.000 here

00:33:12.400 school choice

00:33:13.900 I am a

00:33:15.980 huge proponent

00:33:16.800 of school

00:33:17.220 choice

00:33:17.580 it's been

00:33:18.000 something that

00:33:18.480 you have

00:33:19.080 been a

00:33:20.040 champion of

00:33:20.800 for years

00:33:21.800 but it's

00:33:23.020 also become

00:33:23.840 in many

00:33:24.260 circles

00:33:24.680 they say

00:33:25.080 a third

00:33:25.400 rail

00:33:25.640 don't touch

00:33:26.200 it

00:33:26.300 don't talk

00:33:26.760 about it

00:33:27.060 don't deal

00:33:27.460 with it

00:33:27.720 in politics

00:33:28.340 do you

00:33:29.780 believe in

00:33:30.360 this next

00:33:30.900 election

00:33:31.340 Scott

00:33:31.700 cycle

00:33:32.180 that

00:33:32.440 conservatives

00:33:33.280 can win

00:33:34.140 on the

00:33:34.660 issue

00:33:34.960 of school

00:33:35.300 choice

00:33:35.760 and how

00:33:37.040 would they

00:33:37.460 best do

00:33:37.900 that

00:33:38.060 nationwide

00:33:38.520 look I

00:33:39.140 think

00:33:39.340 absolutely

00:33:40.000 yes

00:33:40.480 I am

00:33:41.200 there is

00:33:42.580 no domestic

00:33:43.340 issue I

00:33:43.920 care about

00:33:44.420 more than

00:33:44.820 school choice

00:33:45.460 I think

00:33:46.420 school choice

00:33:47.300 is the

00:33:48.380 civil rights

00:33:49.240 issue

00:33:49.660 of the

00:33:50.340 21st

00:33:50.900 century

00:33:51.260 and listen

00:33:54.300 it is worth

00:33:54.980 noting that

00:33:55.600 school choice

00:33:56.600 has been

00:33:56.980 around

00:33:57.420 from the

00:33:57.800 dawn of

00:33:58.140 time

00:33:58.420 the rich

00:34:00.100 and the

00:34:00.360 middle class

00:34:00.920 have always

00:34:01.360 had school

00:34:01.780 choice

00:34:02.200 if you

00:34:04.340 were

00:34:04.740 a student

00:34:06.700 at the

00:34:07.420 Bethesda

00:34:07.960 public schools

00:34:08.640 in Maryland

00:34:09.080 Bethesda

00:34:09.560 is this

00:34:09.840 very wealthy

00:34:10.480 suburb of

00:34:11.060 Washington

00:34:11.380 D.C.

00:34:13.580 if that

00:34:14.500 school had

00:34:15.100 a 50%

00:34:15.720 dropout rate

00:34:16.500 if among

00:34:18.700 the students

00:34:19.360 that remained

00:34:20.060 there

00:34:20.480 fewer than

00:34:22.200 half of them

00:34:22.840 graduated

00:34:23.480 reading at

00:34:23.960 grade level

00:34:24.460 if drug dealers

00:34:26.620 were walking

00:34:27.200 in the hallways

00:34:28.020 if little

00:34:28.520 girls were

00:34:29.060 getting sexually

00:34:29.880 assaulted

00:34:30.440 in the

00:34:31.180 bathrooms

00:34:31.700 the

00:34:33.560 Bethesda

00:34:34.360 public schools

00:34:34.980 would be

00:34:35.260 empty

00:34:35.600 immediately

00:34:36.680 because the

00:34:38.320 parents there

00:34:38.720 are rich

00:34:39.080 so they would

00:34:40.380 do one of two

00:34:41.020 things

00:34:41.340 they would

00:34:41.620 either write

00:34:42.100 checks

00:34:42.560 and pay

00:34:43.840 tuition at a

00:34:44.520 private school

00:34:45.080 or they would

00:34:46.740 move to another

00:34:47.640 neighborhood that

00:34:48.280 had a better

00:34:48.720 public school

00:34:49.400 and they would

00:34:50.580 exercise choice

00:34:51.600 through choosing

00:34:52.180 where to live

00:34:52.700 that's what

00:34:54.280 the rich

00:34:54.620 have always

00:34:55.000 been able

00:34:55.340 to do

00:34:55.640 that's what

00:34:56.140 the upper

00:34:56.520 middle class

00:34:57.160 have always

00:34:57.920 been able

00:34:58.240 to do

00:34:58.600 it is

00:35:00.660 low income

00:35:02.000 Americans

00:35:02.620 it is single

00:35:03.620 moms in

00:35:04.220 inner cities

00:35:04.800 who are trapped

00:35:06.680 with failing

00:35:07.320 schools

00:35:07.760 and those

00:35:08.120 numbers I've

00:35:08.680 described

00:35:09.000 are true

00:35:10.120 in school

00:35:10.780 after school

00:35:11.400 after school

00:35:11.980 in this country

00:35:12.640 and it

00:35:13.260 predominantly

00:35:14.140 hurts low

00:35:14.900 income kids

00:35:15.620 it hurts

00:35:16.260 African American

00:35:17.040 kids

00:35:17.480 it hurts

00:35:18.080 Hispanic

00:35:18.600 kids

00:35:19.120 and the

00:35:20.220 Democrat

00:35:20.660 party

00:35:21.300 is

00:35:22.360 bought

00:35:22.820 and paid

00:35:23.400 for

00:35:23.660 by the

00:35:23.980 teachers

00:35:24.260 unions

00:35:24.720 if you

00:35:29.120 look at

00:35:29.480 African

00:35:29.820 American

00:35:30.200 communities

00:35:30.740 or Hispanic

00:35:31.300 communities

00:35:31.800 systematically

00:35:32.700 60-70

00:35:33.720 as much

00:35:34.160 as 80%

00:35:35.280 of African

00:35:36.580 American

00:35:37.000 parents

00:35:37.920 as much

00:35:38.360 as 60-70

00:35:39.740 80%

00:35:40.420 of Hispanic

00:35:41.020 parents

00:35:41.520 support

00:35:42.300 school choice

00:35:43.120 I believe

00:35:44.300 every child

00:35:45.520 in America

00:35:46.240 deserves

00:35:48.940 a right

00:35:49.720 to have

00:35:50.080 access

00:35:50.460 to an

00:35:50.920 excellent

00:35:51.260 education

00:35:51.920 regardless

00:35:52.800 of their

00:35:53.240 race

00:35:53.600 of their

00:35:54.120 ethnicity

00:35:54.620 of their

00:35:55.440 wealth

00:35:55.860 of their

00:35:56.420 zip code

00:35:56.940 so how do we

00:36:02.800 win

00:36:02.960 I gotta say

00:36:03.440 we are sitting

00:36:04.840 in actually

00:36:05.780 extraordinary

00:36:06.340 place

00:36:06.840 because I

00:36:07.200 want to say

00:36:07.660 to the men

00:36:08.060 and women

00:36:08.320 here

00:36:08.660 thank you

00:36:10.320 for your

00:36:10.840 leadership

00:36:11.320 Arizona

00:36:12.100 has led

00:36:14.240 the nation

00:36:15.040 in providing

00:36:16.840 choice to your

00:36:17.680 students

00:36:18.020 it has been

00:36:18.540 extraordinary

00:36:19.140 it has been

00:36:20.200 inspirational

00:36:20.940 it has been

00:36:22.060 powerful

00:36:22.860 and the

00:36:24.940 Goldwater

00:36:25.420 Institute

00:36:25.760 has been

00:36:26.260 pivotal

00:36:26.760 in making

00:36:27.300 that happen

00:36:27.980 and if you

00:36:28.660 look nationally

00:36:29.360 the two

00:36:29.820 states at the

00:36:30.500 front

00:36:30.860 of this

00:36:32.080 fight

00:36:32.380 have been

00:36:32.680 Arizona

00:36:33.120 and Florida

00:36:33.680 and I will

00:36:35.240 say something

00:36:35.840 you and I

00:36:36.320 are both

00:36:36.680 Texans

00:36:37.180 and look

00:36:37.600 Texans

00:36:38.160 we are known

00:36:39.460 for being

00:36:40.000 quiet

00:36:40.520 and for our

00:36:41.060 humility

00:36:41.540 look

00:36:44.140 as Texans

00:36:44.820 I hate

00:36:45.720 that there

00:36:47.020 is anything

00:36:47.960 Texans

00:36:49.040 are not

00:36:49.420 leaning on

00:36:50.020 but when

00:36:51.980 it comes

00:36:52.400 to school

00:36:52.840 choice

00:36:53.280 Texans

00:36:53.800 have been

00:36:54.120 lagging

00:36:54.460 behind

00:36:54.860 and I

00:36:56.160 can tell

00:36:56.560 you

00:36:56.700 there is

00:36:57.000 a major

00:36:57.480 battle

00:36:57.900 playing out

00:36:58.500 in the

00:36:58.660 Texas

00:36:58.940 legislature

00:36:59.580 right now

00:37:00.340 we have

00:37:01.560 the single

00:37:02.220 best moment

00:37:02.900 we have

00:37:03.280 ever had

00:37:03.700 in our

00:37:03.940 lifetimes

00:37:04.580 to pass

00:37:05.660 real and

00:37:06.320 meaningful

00:37:06.660 school

00:37:07.000 choice

00:37:07.400 in Texas

00:37:07.940 the governor

00:37:08.880 Greg Abbott

00:37:09.500 has said

00:37:09.800 he is going

00:37:10.040 to keep

00:37:10.440 calling

00:37:11.080 special

00:37:11.560 sessions

00:37:12.060 until

00:37:12.720 they

00:37:12.960 pass

00:37:13.340 it

00:37:13.460 and I'll

00:37:13.680 tell you

00:37:13.960 something

00:37:14.320 that I

00:37:15.660 do in

00:37:16.040 Texas

00:37:16.360 that is

00:37:16.740 unusual

00:37:17.220 Ben

00:37:17.520 so

00:37:19.060 virtually

00:37:20.660 every

00:37:21.140 U.S.

00:37:21.640 senator

00:37:21.920 stays

00:37:23.660 out of

00:37:24.320 state

00:37:24.680 primaries

00:37:25.480 in their

00:37:26.280 own

00:37:26.440 state

00:37:26.720 and the

00:37:28.540 reason

00:37:28.880 is

00:37:29.240 getting

00:37:29.540 involved

00:37:29.980 in a

00:37:30.220 primary

00:37:30.560 in your

00:37:30.940 own

00:37:31.120 state

00:37:31.340 is just

00:37:31.660 stupid

00:37:31.960 it hurts

00:37:32.380 you

00:37:32.640 that if

00:37:33.660 you make

00:37:34.060 an endorsement

00:37:34.820 in your

00:37:35.080 own

00:37:35.280 primary

00:37:35.760 in a

00:37:36.080 primary

00:37:36.380 in your

00:37:36.660 state

00:37:37.000 the rule

00:37:38.420 of thumb

00:37:38.840 is you

00:37:39.220 get half

00:37:39.820 of their

00:37:40.100 friends

00:37:40.600 and you

00:37:41.640 get all

00:37:41.960 of their

00:37:42.200 enemies

00:37:42.500 I don't

00:37:46.360 do that

00:37:46.720 I regularly

00:37:48.540 endorse in

00:37:49.320 primaries

00:37:49.700 to the best

00:37:50.280 of my

00:37:50.640 knowledge

00:37:50.960 I don't

00:37:51.440 know another

00:37:51.920 U.S.

00:37:52.340 senator that

00:37:52.820 does

00:37:53.140 to the best

00:37:53.800 of my

00:37:54.060 knowledge

00:37:54.360 99 of my

00:37:55.180 colleagues

00:37:55.540 do not

00:37:56.020 and I

00:37:56.680 endorse in

00:37:57.500 lots of

00:37:58.260 primaries

00:37:58.680 in Texas

00:37:59.120 and here's

00:37:59.580 how

00:37:59.840 I have

00:38:00.880 my staff

00:38:01.580 prepare an

00:38:02.360 excel

00:38:02.620 spreadsheet

00:38:03.140 of every

00:38:05.100 vote

00:38:05.640 that a

00:38:06.940 state

00:38:07.180 legislator

00:38:07.880 has cast

00:38:08.460 on school

00:38:08.900 choice

00:38:09.320 and my

00:38:11.400 rule is

00:38:12.020 if you

00:38:12.320 voted in

00:38:12.820 favor of

00:38:13.260 school

00:38:13.460 choice

00:38:13.920 and you're

00:38:15.200 otherwise

00:38:15.660 relatively

00:38:16.780 conservative

00:38:17.420 you're quite

00:38:18.980 likely to get

00:38:19.580 my support

00:38:20.140 if you

00:38:21.940 voted against

00:38:22.860 choice

00:38:23.420 the chances

00:38:24.800 of getting

00:38:25.220 my support

00:38:25.840 are essentially

00:38:26.480 zero

00:38:27.020 and it is

00:38:29.040 very likely

00:38:29.880 that I will

00:38:30.440 endorse your

00:38:31.320 primary opponent

00:38:32.240 and when I do

00:38:34.100 that I don't

00:38:34.620 do it gently

00:38:35.320 I come in

00:38:36.240 and I cut

00:38:36.900 radio and TV

00:38:37.820 ads and I

00:38:38.480 come in

00:38:39.040 and I beat

00:38:40.220 your ass

00:38:40.280 You're accused

00:38:40.500 of a lot of

00:38:40.960 things

00:38:41.380 you going

00:38:42.300 gently in a

00:38:42.980 political time

00:38:43.860 is not one

00:38:44.540 of them sir

00:38:44.960 Look the stakes

00:38:45.580 are too high

00:38:46.780 and so we

00:38:47.800 had last

00:38:48.640 election cycle

00:38:50.280 seven runoffs

00:38:51.200 with the

00:38:51.920 teachers unions

00:38:52.560 on one side

00:38:53.340 and me on

00:38:53.800 the other

00:38:54.160 and we beat

00:38:55.120 them in a

00:38:55.520 majority of

00:38:56.040 those races

00:38:56.580 and the reason

00:39:00.700 I do that

00:39:01.500 and listen

00:39:01.940 it hurts me

00:39:02.700 politically to

00:39:03.340 do that

00:39:03.600 I am losing

00:39:04.460 votes

00:39:05.040 when I do

00:39:05.940 that

00:39:06.240 but the reason

00:39:07.720 I'm doing

00:39:08.280 that is that

00:39:08.980 I want for

00:39:09.740 the state

00:39:10.240 legislators

00:39:10.960 when they're

00:39:11.380 thinking about

00:39:12.040 what do I

00:39:12.460 do on this

00:39:13.200 for it to be

00:39:14.860 a carrot and

00:39:15.540 stick

00:39:15.900 that if there

00:39:16.660 is a

00:39:18.600 Republican

00:39:19.520 House member

00:39:20.500 that's on

00:39:21.000 the fence

00:39:21.540 do I support

00:39:22.360 it

00:39:22.520 do I not

00:39:23.280 I want

00:39:24.820 them to

00:39:25.100 say you

00:39:25.460 know

00:39:25.700 I really

00:39:27.360 don't want

00:39:27.880 Cruz to

00:39:28.380 screw around

00:39:28.860 in my

00:39:29.080 primary

00:39:29.500 so maybe

00:39:31.060 I'll just

00:39:31.480 do the

00:39:31.840 right thing

00:39:32.380 and I'll

00:39:33.920 tell you

00:39:34.340 something

00:39:34.720 and it's

00:39:35.080 something

00:39:35.340 why I'm

00:39:35.820 so inspired

00:39:36.660 by the

00:39:37.020 men and

00:39:37.240 women in

00:39:37.540 this room

00:39:38.000 when I

00:39:39.020 was first

00:39:39.500 elected to

00:39:40.020 the Senate

00:39:40.360 in 2012

00:39:40.960 here's what

00:39:41.420 I told

00:39:41.760 Heidi

00:39:42.040 I said

00:39:43.880 sweetheart

00:39:44.340 if when

00:39:44.880 I die

00:39:45.580 if my

00:39:47.600 tombstone

00:39:48.440 says

00:39:49.040 Ted

00:39:49.980 played a

00:39:50.520 meaningful

00:39:50.940 role

00:39:51.460 in bringing

00:39:51.980 about

00:39:52.360 school

00:39:52.740 choice

00:39:53.260 to every

00:39:54.040 child in

00:39:54.640 Texas

00:39:54.920 and every

00:39:55.320 child in

00:39:55.820 America

00:39:56.180 I will

00:39:57.400 die a

00:39:58.080 very very

00:39:58.860 happy man

00:39:59.620 amen to that

00:40:00.680 so we really

00:40:01.640 get to do

00:40:02.020 this so I

00:40:02.380 want to say

00:40:32.200 name at the

00:40:32.720 beginning and

00:40:34.980 and then we'll

00:40:35.560 go there go

00:40:36.040 ahead

00:40:36.280 hi Senator

00:40:38.400 I'm Mark

00:40:39.780 Volker from

00:40:40.720 Las Vegas

00:40:41.680 a few weeks

00:40:44.460 ago Jay

00:40:45.180 Powell

00:40:45.720 chairman of

00:40:46.420 the Fed

00:40:46.940 was asked

00:40:48.740 if the

00:40:49.300 Federal Reserve

00:40:50.040 was going to

00:40:51.100 issue a

00:40:52.000 central bank

00:40:52.940 digital currency

00:40:54.060 and his

00:40:55.340 response was

00:40:56.520 that would

00:40:57.540 have to be

00:40:58.220 authorized by

00:40:59.300 Congress

00:40:59.920 so my

00:41:01.160 question is

00:41:02.360 when

00:41:03.620 legislation is

00:41:04.860 introduced

00:41:05.420 to authorize

00:41:07.240 a central bank

00:41:08.260 digital currency

00:41:09.280 what will be

00:41:10.940 the response

00:41:12.020 in Congress

00:41:13.340 thank you

00:41:14.260 so Mark

00:41:15.380 thank you for

00:41:15.900 that question

00:41:16.560 for anyone

00:41:17.020 who didn't

00:41:17.500 hear he

00:41:18.000 asked about

00:41:18.780 the Federal

00:41:19.700 Reserve

00:41:20.180 potentially issuing

00:41:21.380 a central bank

00:41:22.120 digital currency

00:41:22.980 and how Congress

00:41:23.820 would respond

00:41:24.720 if legislation

00:41:25.960 was issued

00:41:27.140 I'll tell you

00:41:27.920 I am

00:41:29.160 passionately

00:41:30.240 opposed

00:41:30.900 to any

00:41:31.900 central bank

00:41:32.680 digital currency

00:41:33.440 and in fact

00:41:37.820 Mark

00:41:38.200 I have

00:41:38.680 introduced

00:41:39.080 legislation

00:41:40.020 to prohibit

00:41:40.840 the Fed

00:41:41.340 from ever

00:41:42.420 issuing a

00:41:43.260 central bank

00:41:43.860 digital currency

00:41:44.700 when it

00:41:47.660 comes to

00:41:48.460 Bitcoin

00:41:48.860 when it

00:41:49.380 comes to

00:41:49.920 cryptocurrency

00:41:50.420 generally

00:41:51.320 I am

00:41:51.920 very

00:41:52.400 bullish

00:41:52.820 on Bitcoin

00:41:53.620 I'm

00:41:56.280 personally

00:41:56.760 an investor

00:41:57.420 in Bitcoin

00:41:57.960 I have a

00:41:58.620 standing buy

00:41:59.320 order

00:41:59.580 I buy

00:42:00.140 Bitcoin

00:42:00.580 every Monday

00:42:01.600 on an

00:42:02.040 automatic

00:42:02.540 buy order

00:42:03.180 that's

00:42:04.500 just

00:42:04.820 my meager

00:42:06.060 resources

00:42:06.660 that's

00:42:07.100 part of

00:42:08.360 our

00:42:08.520 investment

00:42:09.020 I think

00:42:10.640 Bitcoin

00:42:11.040 is an

00:42:11.580 extraordinary

00:42:12.300 number one

00:42:13.220 hedge

00:42:13.500 against

00:42:13.840 inflation

00:42:14.440 but number

00:42:15.940 two

00:42:16.620 look

00:42:17.680 I love

00:42:18.480 Bitcoin

00:42:19.040 for the

00:42:19.480 same

00:42:19.960 reason

00:42:20.680 that

00:42:21.380 collectivists

00:42:22.100 and statists

00:42:22.840 hate it

00:42:23.560 which is

00:42:24.840 that it

00:42:25.220 cannot be

00:42:25.960 controlled

00:42:26.600 communist

00:42:27.740 China

00:42:28.260 has banned

00:42:29.120 Bitcoin

00:42:29.700 China

00:42:31.500 hates

00:42:31.920 Bitcoin

00:42:32.460 for the

00:42:33.660 same

00:42:33.980 reason

00:42:34.380 Elizabeth

00:42:34.820 Warren

00:42:35.240 hates

00:42:35.560 Bitcoin

00:42:36.060 because

00:42:37.180 they

00:42:37.540 cannot

00:42:37.960 control

00:42:38.580 it

00:42:38.720 the

00:42:38.900 left

00:42:39.260 wants

00:42:39.880 to

00:42:40.040 control

00:42:40.400 your

00:42:40.620 finances

00:42:41.160 and

00:42:41.420 they

00:42:41.540 want

00:42:41.760 to

00:42:41.980 monitor

00:42:42.520 every

00:42:43.440 monetary

00:42:44.000 exchange

00:42:44.600 you

00:42:44.920 have

00:42:45.500 including

00:42:46.460 the

00:42:46.780 original

00:42:47.200 version

00:42:47.620 of the

00:42:47.940 so-called

00:42:48.360 Build Back

00:42:48.860 Better

00:42:49.140 bill

00:42:49.460 which I

00:42:50.200 called

00:42:50.460 Build Back

00:42:50.920 Broke

00:42:51.380 required your

00:42:53.680 bank to

00:42:54.240 report to

00:42:54.860 the federal

00:42:55.240 government

00:42:55.680 every single

00:42:56.540 transaction

00:42:57.160 you made

00:42:57.860 in excess

00:42:58.620 of $400

00:42:59.240 that meant

00:43:01.000 that meant

00:43:01.020 every

00:43:01.200 mortgage

00:43:01.540 payment

00:43:01.980 that meant

00:43:02.300 every

00:43:02.460 car

00:43:02.800 payment

00:43:03.240 with

00:43:04.160 inflation

00:43:04.700 that damn

00:43:05.260 near meant

00:43:05.620 every time

00:43:06.060 you filled

00:43:06.440 up your

00:43:06.740 gas tank

00:43:07.420 I think

00:43:09.960 it is insane

00:43:10.720 the federal

00:43:11.160 government

00:43:11.520 has no

00:43:11.980 business

00:43:12.620 monitoring

00:43:13.340 the financial

00:43:14.520 transactions

00:43:15.400 of a free

00:43:16.060 people

00:43:16.480 I will tell

00:43:21.460 you also

00:43:22.040 I'm a big

00:43:22.760 proponent

00:43:23.360 Texas is

00:43:24.360 becoming an

00:43:25.000 oasis for

00:43:25.760 Bitcoin

00:43:26.260 and cryptocurrency

00:43:26.980 mining

00:43:28.080 that people

00:43:28.720 are coming

00:43:29.200 to Texas

00:43:29.780 to be free

00:43:30.920 it is a

00:43:31.380 benefit to

00:43:32.000 have low

00:43:33.020 cost

00:43:33.460 abundant

00:43:33.920 energy

00:43:34.400 and if that's

00:43:34.900 one thing

00:43:35.260 Texas has

00:43:35.980 we have a

00:43:36.860 lot of it

00:43:37.380 I will say

00:43:38.240 I'm glad

00:43:39.120 Jay Powell

00:43:39.740 says that

00:43:40.380 I have asked

00:43:41.080 him in my

00:43:41.720 office

00:43:42.200 about a

00:43:43.420 central bank

00:43:43.980 digital currency

00:43:44.920 what he said

00:43:46.620 in my office

00:43:47.280 sounded pretty

00:43:47.980 good

00:43:48.340 now it worries

00:43:49.040 me sometimes

00:43:49.880 that when

00:43:50.620 Jay Powell

00:43:51.160 is talking

00:43:51.660 to Democrats

00:43:52.340 what he says

00:43:53.060 doesn't sound

00:43:54.060 pretty good

00:43:54.620 and so I

00:43:55.980 remain worried

00:43:56.820 the Fed

00:43:57.240 will try

00:43:57.620 to do

00:43:57.900 this on

00:43:58.260 their own

00:43:58.640 but I

00:43:59.820 can tell

00:44:00.260 you

00:44:00.520 if they

00:44:01.600 do

00:44:01.920 I will

00:44:02.360 lead the

00:44:02.760 fight

00:44:02.960 against

00:44:03.340 it

00:44:03.620 and I

00:44:04.100 don't

00:44:04.240 think

00:44:04.420 the

00:44:04.580 federal

00:44:04.800 government

00:44:05.200 should

00:44:05.480 ever

00:44:05.780 get in

00:44:06.080 that

00:44:06.200 business

00:44:06.640 go ahead

00:44:08.560 next up

00:44:20.200 rest

00:44:20.580 of

00:44:20.760 the

00:44:20.960 Senate

00:44:21.320 that

00:44:22.280 without

00:44:22.760 border

00:44:23.320 security

00:44:24.080 we

00:44:24.840 don't

00:44:25.160 have

00:44:25.480 any

00:44:25.880 U.S.

00:44:26.600 security

00:44:31.480 amen

00:44:31.960 thank you

00:44:33.920 we

00:44:34.080 we talked

00:44:35.080 about

00:44:35.360 were we

00:44:35.640 going to

00:44:35.900 talk about

00:44:36.420 securing

00:44:36.800 the border

00:44:37.220 or not

00:44:37.700 and I

00:44:38.000 told him

00:44:38.400 Ben

00:44:38.660 we're in

00:44:39.380 Arizona

00:44:39.880 the chances

00:44:40.500 that we

00:44:40.840 go through

00:44:41.240 Q&A

00:44:41.860 without talking

00:44:42.860 about border

00:44:43.440 security

00:44:43.920 are zero

00:44:44.520 look it is

00:44:46.160 an absolute

00:44:46.940 manifest

00:44:47.560 disaster

00:44:48.540 y'all know

00:44:49.220 that you

00:44:49.660 deal with it

00:44:50.300 every day

00:44:50.900 in Texas

00:44:51.780 we know

00:44:52.360 that we

00:44:52.800 deal with

00:44:53.260 it every

00:44:53.560 day

00:44:53.880 I was

00:44:54.740 down at

00:44:55.120 our

00:44:55.300 southern

00:44:55.560 border

00:44:55.880 last

00:44:56.300 week

00:45:10.760 political

00:45:12.140 nincompoops

00:45:28.300 Corrine

00:45:29.680 Jean-Pierre

00:45:37.940 technical term

00:45:40.040 that is

00:45:41.240 called

00:45:41.640 a lie

00:45:42.540 it is not

00:45:44.720 a point of

00:45:45.580 view

00:45:45.900 it is not

00:45:46.560 spin

00:45:47.180 it is not

00:45:47.820 advocacy

00:45:48.560 it is a

00:45:49.720 brazen

00:45:50.720 flat out

00:45:52.140 lie

00:45:52.800 and I

00:45:54.240 responded

00:45:55.040 actually on

00:45:55.640 this podcast

00:45:56.240 I said

00:45:56.800 Corrine

00:45:57.100 Jean-Pierre

00:45:57.800 come with

00:45:58.580 me to the

00:45:58.980 southern border

00:45:59.580 let's go

00:46:00.120 out

00:46:00.420 and in

00:46:00.920 one hour

00:46:01.400 I promise

00:46:01.960 you we

00:46:02.300 will encounter

00:46:02.940 illegal aliens

00:46:03.980 because over

00:46:04.780 eight million

00:46:05.880 have crossed

00:46:06.840 since Joe

00:46:07.320 Biden became

00:46:07.920 president

00:46:08.380 now let me

00:46:10.280 tell you

00:46:10.660 something

00:46:11.040 one of the

00:46:12.780 last times

00:46:13.360 I was there

00:46:13.920 a reporter

00:46:15.940 asked me

00:46:16.540 said

00:46:16.900 well aren't

00:46:18.180 the policies

00:46:18.880 of Democrats

00:46:19.720 much more

00:46:21.400 compassionate

00:46:22.080 and humane

00:46:22.740 on immigration

00:46:23.400 than you mean

00:46:25.020 old Republicans

00:46:25.740 who want to

00:46:26.220 secure the border

00:46:26.860 and I just

00:46:28.480 started laughing

00:46:29.160 and I said

00:46:30.620 you know who

00:46:30.960 doesn't believe

00:46:31.440 that anymore

00:46:32.020 the Democrats

00:46:34.080 I said

00:46:36.080 where's Joe

00:46:36.520 Biden

00:46:36.820 where's Kamala

00:46:38.960 Harris

00:46:39.360 where is a

00:46:41.320 single

00:46:41.920 Democrat

00:46:42.820 senator

00:46:43.440 none of

00:46:45.320 them come

00:46:45.820 to the border

00:46:46.360 and there's a

00:46:46.900 reason for that

00:46:47.720 because you

00:46:48.560 cannot see

00:46:49.520 what is

00:46:49.940 happening

00:46:50.340 you cannot

00:46:51.720 see the

00:46:52.400 dead bodies

00:46:53.140 last year

00:46:53.920 853 migrants

00:46:55.960 died crossing

00:46:56.820 illegally into

00:46:57.380 this country

00:46:57.900 Texas farmers

00:46:59.160 and ranchers

00:46:59.720 find dead

00:47:00.220 bodies on

00:47:01.160 their property

00:47:01.780 every single

00:47:02.820 day they do

00:47:03.400 the same

00:47:03.780 thing here

00:47:04.240 in Arizona

00:47:04.700 you cannot

00:47:06.360 see the

00:47:07.180 children

00:47:07.660 who have

00:47:09.340 been brutalized

00:47:10.420 by human

00:47:10.940 traffickers

00:47:11.580 you can't

00:47:13.020 see the

00:47:13.420 women who've

00:47:13.980 been sexually

00:47:14.600 assaulted

00:47:15.140 you can't

00:47:16.240 see the

00:47:16.720 more than

00:47:17.220 100,000

00:47:18.960 drug overdoses

00:47:20.320 last year

00:47:21.140 70% of

00:47:22.560 which came

00:47:23.140 from Chinese

00:47:24.060 fentanyl

00:47:24.460 you can't

00:47:25.040 see that

00:47:25.680 and argue

00:47:26.420 this is

00:47:26.840 humane

00:47:27.380 or compassionate

00:47:28.440 it is a

00:47:29.080 disaster

00:47:29.740 and we're

00:47:31.840 seeing blue

00:47:32.680 state governors

00:47:33.400 and mayors

00:47:34.220 people like

00:47:35.220 Mayor Erica

00:47:35.820 Adams

00:47:36.280 in New York

00:47:36.840 City

00:47:37.160 declaring an

00:47:41.000 emergency

00:47:41.620 and saying

00:47:42.360 illegal immigration

00:47:43.400 is destroying

00:47:45.020 New York

00:47:46.200 City

00:47:46.520 New York

00:47:48.300 City has

00:47:48.700 9 million

00:47:49.180 people

00:47:49.560 they've had

00:47:50.000 roughly

00:47:50.440 110,000

00:47:52.220 illegal immigrants

00:47:53.060 Adams

00:47:55.260 blames

00:47:55.920 that madman

00:47:57.240 down in

00:47:57.720 Texas

00:47:58.160 by which I

00:47:59.940 think he

00:48:00.340 means Governor

00:48:00.940 Greg Abbott

00:48:01.600 frankly I was

00:48:02.480 offended he

00:48:02.980 didn't mean

00:48:03.320 me

00:48:03.540 like what

00:48:05.240 do I have

00:48:05.660 to do

00:48:06.260 I'm sure

00:48:07.000 we can get

00:48:07.300 a reporter

00:48:07.700 to ask

00:48:08.120 that question

00:48:08.600 if I

00:48:08.800 clarify

00:48:09.260 right

00:48:09.680 I don't

00:48:12.060 disagree

00:48:12.440 with him

00:48:12.920 that 110,000

00:48:14.160 illegal immigrants

00:48:14.960 threatens to

00:48:15.600 destroy New York

00:48:16.380 City

00:48:16.640 but my

00:48:17.040 question is

00:48:17.880 if that's

00:48:19.040 true

00:48:19.440 what the

00:48:20.780 hell do you

00:48:21.300 think 8

00:48:22.100 million

00:48:22.720 is doing

00:48:24.140 for Texas

00:48:24.820 and Arizona

00:48:25.520 and the rest

00:48:26.340 of the

00:48:26.600 southern border

00:48:27.120 amen

00:48:28.220 so I can

00:48:31.300 tell you

00:48:31.860 periodically

00:48:32.640 I bring

00:48:33.320 my colleagues

00:48:34.080 down

00:48:34.420 so on

00:48:34.840 Thursday

00:48:35.300 I brought

00:48:36.320 five senators

00:48:37.100 down to the

00:48:37.820 southern border

00:48:38.360 to see

00:48:38.740 firsthand

00:48:39.180 what is

00:48:39.780 happening

00:48:40.160 the

00:48:41.160 Democrats

00:48:41.940 quite simply

00:48:43.040 do not

00:48:43.720 care

00:48:44.160 it is

00:48:45.800 the fault

00:48:46.520 this crisis

00:48:48.040 is man

00:48:48.560 made

00:48:48.820 Joe Biden

00:48:49.440 created it

00:48:50.200 Kamala Harris

00:48:51.280 created it

00:48:51.940 and every

00:48:52.800 single

00:48:53.300 Democrat

00:48:53.800 senator

00:48:54.320 created it

00:48:55.120 and they

00:48:56.340 could stop

00:48:56.880 it tomorrow

00:48:57.400 so I

00:48:59.020 cannot promise

00:48:59.800 you that I'm

00:49:00.340 going to

00:49:00.620 change

00:49:01.140 their view

00:49:02.380 but I can

00:49:03.700 promise you

00:49:04.300 I will continue

00:49:04.940 doing everything

00:49:06.000 humanly

00:49:06.680 possible

00:49:07.220 to tell

00:49:08.720 the American

00:49:09.380 people

00:49:09.840 the nightmare

00:49:10.780 the national

00:49:11.840 security

00:49:12.560 disaster

00:49:13.400 that they

00:49:14.280 are creating

00:49:14.900 the San

00:49:15.380 Diego

00:49:16.060 Customs

00:49:16.700 and Border

00:49:17.000 Patrol

00:49:17.420 last week

00:49:18.500 put out

00:49:18.860 a written

00:49:19.200 memo

00:49:19.580 directing

00:49:21.000 Border

00:49:21.360 Patrol

00:49:21.700 to be

00:49:22.000 on guard

00:49:22.540 for Hamas

00:49:23.200 and Hezbollah

00:49:23.800 terrorists

00:49:24.480 crossing our

00:49:25.760 southern border

00:49:26.420 and I

00:49:27.560 gotta tell you

00:49:28.080 I

00:49:28.280 changed his

00:49:28.920 words this

00:49:29.380 week

00:49:29.620 saying

00:49:30.020 he's

00:49:30.720 terrified

00:49:31.080 over this

00:49:31.780 this is

00:49:32.580 our last

00:49:33.060 podcast

00:49:33.480 on Wednesday

00:49:34.220 we played

00:49:35.000 Christopher

00:49:35.740 Ray

00:49:36.020 the director

00:49:36.460 of the

00:49:36.740 FBI

00:49:37.100 his words

00:49:37.940 before

00:49:38.640 Congress

00:49:39.160 where he

00:49:39.520 said

00:49:39.760 there's

00:49:39.980 a real

00:49:40.320 risk

00:49:40.660 of a

00:49:40.880 Hamas

00:49:41.240 attack

00:49:41.680 in the

00:49:42.760 United

00:49:43.060 States

00:49:43.500 right now

00:49:44.180 and I

00:49:45.740 am sorry

00:49:46.220 to say

00:49:46.680 I think

00:49:47.240 we're at

00:49:48.300 a greater

00:49:48.780 risk

00:49:49.240 today

00:49:49.700 of a

00:49:50.040 major

00:49:50.360 terrorist

00:49:50.860 attack

00:49:51.260 in America

00:49:51.840 than at

00:49:52.960 any point

00:49:53.820 since

00:49:54.160 September

00:49:54.620 11th

00:49:55.620 and as

00:49:56.160 long as

00:49:56.660 Joe Biden

00:49:57.260 and the

00:49:57.600 Democrats

00:49:58.080 keep

00:49:58.580 an open

00:49:59.280 border

00:49:59.700 we are

00:50:00.200 jeopardizing

00:50:01.160 the safety

00:50:02.120 of every

00:50:02.540 American

00:50:02.900 in our

00:50:03.180 country

00:50:03.480 one

00:50:05.060 final question

00:50:05.900 real quick

00:50:06.480 and we'll

00:50:06.900 wrap it

00:50:07.240 up

00:50:07.520 hello

00:50:08.600 senator

00:50:09.040 my name

00:50:09.540 is Matt

00:50:09.860 McGill

00:50:10.220 I'm from

00:50:10.540 Alexandria

00:50:11.140 Virginia

00:50:11.600 we have

00:50:12.500 a common

00:50:13.220 mentor

00:50:13.620 and Chuck

00:50:14.280 Cooper

00:50:14.600 oh fantastic

00:50:15.620 yeah so

00:50:16.400 my question

00:50:17.060 for you

00:50:17.440 is about

00:50:18.040 Citizens

00:50:18.800 United

00:50:19.280 versus

00:50:19.680 FEC

00:50:20.160 so

00:50:21.300 you know

00:50:23.140 this is

00:50:23.580 something

00:50:23.880 that Chuck

00:50:24.400 and I

00:50:24.760 worked on

00:50:25.340 together

00:50:25.740 going back

00:50:27.020 I don't

00:50:28.080 know

00:50:28.300 way back

00:50:29.160 to 2002

00:50:29.920 so

00:50:30.880 all of a

00:50:31.980 sudden

00:50:32.300 after the

00:50:33.240 Supreme Court's

00:50:34.280 decision in

00:50:35.060 2010

00:50:35.760 13 years

00:50:36.580 later

00:50:36.880 it's suddenly

00:50:37.380 controversial

00:50:38.000 again

00:50:38.460 just wondering

00:50:39.380 if you could

00:50:39.860 explain why

00:50:40.860 it's controversial

00:50:41.600 and where you

00:50:42.360 stand on that

00:50:43.000 please

00:50:43.320 thank you

00:50:43.860 so it is a

00:50:44.620 great question

00:50:45.340 I will say

00:50:46.860 that the

00:50:47.280 gentleman who

00:50:47.700 just asked

00:50:48.200 he said

00:50:48.520 that he

00:50:48.820 had worked

00:50:49.300 with Chuck

00:50:49.720 Cooper

00:50:50.080 Chuck

00:50:50.400 Cooper

00:50:50.700 was

00:50:51.100 my very

00:50:52.060 first boss

00:50:52.780 that I

00:50:53.080 worked for

00:50:53.600 after

00:50:53.900 clergy for

00:50:54.400 Chief Justice

00:50:54.920 Rehnquist

00:50:55.480 he's one of

00:50:56.420 my closest

00:50:56.900 friends and

00:50:57.480 mentors

00:50:57.820 he's one of

00:50:58.260 the top

00:50:58.720 Supreme Court

00:50:59.760 and constitutional

00:51:00.360 lawyers in

00:51:00.900 the country

00:51:01.300 the question

00:51:02.800 was about

00:51:03.220 Citizens

00:51:03.620 United

00:51:04.000 and I

00:51:05.520 have a

00:51:06.000 crazy

00:51:06.420 radical

00:51:06.880 view

00:51:07.280 which is

00:51:08.420 we should

00:51:08.760 protect

00:51:09.160 free speech

00:51:09.820 free speech

00:51:11.380 matters

00:51:11.980 you know

00:51:13.840 what Citizens

00:51:14.280 United was

00:51:14.880 about

00:51:15.180 so if you

00:51:17.640 look at the

00:51:18.020 case

00:51:18.260 Citizens

00:51:18.620 United

00:51:19.040 is a

00:51:19.420 non-profit

00:51:19.900 organization

00:51:20.600 that made

00:51:22.140 a movie

00:51:22.720 that was

00:51:24.020 critical of

00:51:24.620 Hillary Clinton

00:51:25.160 and the

00:51:27.060 Obama

00:51:27.500 administration

00:51:28.180 wanted to

00:51:28.920 go after

00:51:29.560 and fine

00:51:30.400 and punish

00:51:31.300 this

00:51:31.960 non-profit

00:51:32.560 organization

00:51:35.800 critical

00:51:36.260 of a

00:51:37.540 and it

00:51:43.060 there's

00:51:43.360 an exchange

00:51:44.220 where

00:51:47.080 Justice

00:51:47.460 Department

00:51:47.980 under

00:51:49.500 your

00:51:49.860 theory

00:51:50.420 that

00:51:51.460 the

00:51:55.620 critical

00:51:56.340 of a

00:52:01.820 books

00:52:02.240 you

00:52:02.400 didn't

00:52:02.700 like

00:52:03.060 that

00:52:04.280 criticize

00:52:04.840 politicians

00:52:05.520 and the

00:52:08.060 said

00:52:08.760 yes

00:52:09.700 that's

00:52:10.020 exactly

00:52:14.620 quite

00:52:15.020 rightly

00:52:18.400 the

00:52:18.660 First

00:52:18.960 Amendment

00:52:38.180 of my

00:52:38.500 adult

00:52:38.840 life

00:52:39.120 fighting

00:52:41.520 my

00:52:43.480 in

00:53:01.740 don't

00:53:01.940 know

00:53:02.120 that

00:53:02.320 because

00:53:02.480 the

00:53:02.620 news

00:53:02.780 didn't

00:53:03.040 cover

00:53:03.480 the

00:53:04.920 first

00:53:22.060 that

00:53:24.080 involves

00:53:24.460 politics

00:53:25.060 that

00:53:48.920 the
