Verdict with Ted Cruz - Bombshell Durham Report Vindicates Trump!

00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.

00:00:02.560 Guaranteed human.

00:00:05.380 Welcome. It is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz.

00:00:07.960 Ben Ferguson with you as well.

00:00:09.700 Senator, the Durham report is out,

00:00:12.640 and it's very clear that it vindicates Donald Trump.

00:00:17.220 I can't believe I'm saying this,

00:00:18.340 but even CNN said it vindicates Donald Trump.

00:00:21.400 It was very clear a witch hunt from the deep state

00:00:24.220 to go after the President of the United States of America

00:00:26.640 and to try to destroy him, his family,

00:00:29.480 his entire life,

00:00:31.260 and to remind people of how much

00:00:33.520 they wanted to destroy Donald Trump.

00:00:36.780 Let's remind people of what Nancy Pelosi said

00:00:39.920 when all this started many years ago.

00:00:43.300 This week we saw cold, hard evidence

00:00:46.440 of the Trump campaign,

00:00:48.580 indeed the Trump family,

00:00:50.860 eagerly intending to collude possibly

00:00:53.900 with Russia,

00:00:55.440 a hostile foreign power 1.00

00:00:58.280 to influence American elections.

00:01:01.480 In the month, again, as we celebrate

00:01:03.520 the courage of our founders,

00:01:05.640 Republicans in Congress have become

00:01:07.620 enablers of the Trump-Russia assault

00:01:11.380 on our democracy.

00:01:13.540 After these latest revelations,

00:01:15.580 it's becoming clear we have suffered

00:01:17.060 a desecration of our democracy

00:01:19.460 not seen since Watergate.

00:01:22.020 Speaker Ryan must allow a vote

00:01:24.260 on an outside, independent commission

00:01:26.940 to get to the bottom

00:01:28.200 of the Trump campaign's rule

00:01:30.080 and Russia's assault on our democracy 0.92

00:01:31.980 and prevent Putin from ever doing it again,

00:01:35.260 immediately.

00:01:36.500 Outside, independent commission.

00:01:39.240 It's not just about what happened in the past,

00:01:41.900 it's to prevent it from happening again.

00:01:44.480 Senator, she knew she was lying

00:01:47.060 and she was calling for a full-on investigation

00:01:49.440 of Donald Trump and she got it.

00:01:52.900 Every word Nancy Pelosi said there was a lie.

00:01:56.120 You're right, she knew she was lying.

00:01:58.280 The media knew she was lying.

00:02:01.060 The Department of Justice knew she was lying.

00:02:04.760 The FBI knew she was lying.

00:02:08.820 Congressional Democrat leadership knew she was lying.

00:02:11.780 As I read this report, I'm angry.

00:02:14.700 I'm angry on multiple fronts.

00:02:17.400 Let me quote from the Durham report.

00:02:20.420 Quote,

00:02:21.140 Based on the evidence gathered

00:02:22.880 in the multiple exhaustive

00:02:24.060 and costly federal investigations

00:02:25.640 of these matters,

00:02:26.500 including the incident investigation,

00:02:29.020 neither U.S. law enforcement

00:02:31.020 nor the intelligence community

00:02:32.700 appears to have possessed

00:02:34.680 any actual evidence

00:02:37.440 of collusion

00:02:39.040 in their holdings

00:02:40.780 at the commencement

00:02:42.240 of the crossfire hurricane investigation.

00:02:44.700 The report continues,

00:02:46.300 Quote,

00:02:47.220 Our investigation determined

00:02:48.960 that the crossfire hurricane investigators

00:02:51.200 did not

00:02:51.980 and could not corroborate

00:02:54.180 any,

00:02:55.200 any

00:02:55.880 of the substantive allegations

00:02:58.240 contained in the Steele reporting,

00:03:00.420 nor was Steele able

00:03:02.100 to produce corroboration

00:03:03.960 for any of the reported

00:03:05.800 allegations,

00:03:06.700 even after being offered

00:03:09.520 one million dollars

00:03:11.640 or more

00:03:12.380 by the FBI

00:03:13.800 for such corroboration.

00:03:15.820 This investigation

00:03:16.920 was started as a lie

00:03:18.600 and it was started

00:03:20.480 as a political witch hunt.

00:03:22.160 Actually,

00:03:22.360 the words Trump used

00:03:23.360 were accurate.

00:03:24.080 This was a witch hunt.

00:03:25.340 This was Democrats

00:03:26.760 in Congress.

00:03:27.800 This was rabid

00:03:28.920 left-wing partisans

00:03:30.360 burrowed into the FBI.

00:03:31.940 This was rabid

00:03:33.100 left-wing partisans

00:03:34.140 burrowed into

00:03:34.800 the Department of Justice

00:03:35.920 all using the machinery

00:03:37.980 of law enforcement

00:03:39.880 to target

00:03:40.840 what was then

00:03:42.280 the Republican nominee

00:03:43.440 for president.

00:03:44.640 This is a grotesque

00:03:46.560 abuse of power

00:03:47.800 and if you're not angry at it,

00:03:50.380 even if you're a Democrat,

00:03:51.920 even if you can't stand Trump,

00:03:54.160 the idea that the federal government

00:03:56.640 would go after

00:03:58.620 one of the two major party nominees

00:04:01.220 and try to destroy them 0.75

00:04:02.860 because they hate him 0.87

00:04:04.080 is an incredible threat

00:04:06.620 to our liberty

00:04:07.400 and to our democracy

00:04:08.700 and I use those words

00:04:10.260 without a sense of irony

00:04:12.480 because the Democrats,

00:04:14.380 as you just played,

00:04:15.140 Nancy Pelosi said, 0.96

00:04:16.260 we're defending democracy,

00:04:17.380 defending democracy.

00:04:18.760 She was engaged

00:04:20.060 in as fundamental

00:04:21.500 an assault on democracy

00:04:22.820 as our country

00:04:23.480 has ever seen.

00:04:24.220 It was using law enforcement

00:04:26.440 to try

00:04:27.340 to prevent

00:04:28.700 the American people

00:04:29.660 from electing someone

00:04:30.560 she didn't want 1.00

00:04:31.420 and then to try

00:04:32.420 to remove

00:04:33.100 a duly elected president

00:04:34.580 because she hated

00:04:36.340 the voters

00:04:36.860 for electing him.

00:04:37.700 Is it too strong,

00:04:39.180 Senator,

00:04:39.360 to call this,

00:04:40.460 and I think it's time

00:04:41.740 just that we're blunt,

00:04:44.040 is this,

00:04:44.680 was this basically

00:04:45.600 in essence

00:04:46.100 a coup attempt

00:04:46.680 by the deep state

00:04:47.460 to say,

00:04:47.980 we don't like

00:04:48.480 who the American people chose

00:04:49.780 and therefore

00:04:50.740 we're going to fix it

00:04:51.620 by,

00:04:52.240 on false pretenses,

00:04:54.580 framing someone

00:04:55.460 for crimes,

00:04:56.560 framing somebody

00:04:57.420 for things

00:04:57.920 they never did,

00:04:59.580 writing a script

00:05:00.940 to frame them for it

00:05:02.280 and then get rid

00:05:03.280 of that person?

00:05:04.060 So yes and no.

00:05:06.260 There were some

00:05:07.060 engaged in a coup attempt.

00:05:09.320 In fact,

00:05:10.460 if I may be so bold

00:05:12.280 as to use the word

00:05:13.240 insurrection,

00:05:14.580 when you're trying

00:05:15.600 to topple

00:05:16.320 a duly elected government,

00:05:17.700 it's an insurrection

00:05:18.560 and what Nancy Pelosi 0.69

00:05:20.060 was trying to do,

00:05:20.960 what congressional Democrats

00:05:22.040 were trying to do

00:05:22.780 was an insurrection.

00:05:25.140 I think some of the

00:05:26.700 hard partisans

00:05:27.980 at DOJ

00:05:28.680 and the FBI

00:05:29.340 were doing the same.

00:05:31.160 I think others

00:05:32.040 were just complacent.

00:05:33.180 So let me read again

00:05:34.660 from the Durham report.

00:05:36.920 Quote,

00:05:37.600 based on the review

00:05:39.060 of Crossfire Hurricane

00:05:40.120 and related intelligence

00:05:41.220 activities,

00:05:42.520 we conclude

00:05:43.380 that the department

00:05:44.560 and the FBI

00:05:45.760 failed to uphold

00:05:46.900 their important mission

00:05:48.100 of strict fidelity

00:05:49.780 to the law

00:05:50.540 in connection

00:05:51.880 with certain events

00:05:52.740 and activities

00:05:53.360 described in this report.

00:05:55.040 As noted,

00:05:56.580 former FBI attorney

00:05:57.960 Kevin Clinesmith

00:05:59.240 committed a criminal

00:06:01.020 offense

00:06:01.600 by fabricating

00:06:03.420 language in an email

00:06:04.580 that was material

00:06:05.500 to the FBI

00:06:06.300 in obtaining

00:06:07.000 a FISA surveillance order.

00:06:09.500 In other instance,

00:06:11.660 FBI personnel

00:06:12.800 working on the same

00:06:14.060 FISA application

00:06:15.140 displayed at best

00:06:16.840 a cavalier attitude

00:06:19.320 towards accuracy

00:06:20.600 and completeness.

00:06:22.380 Now,

00:06:23.340 the Durham report continues.

00:06:24.700 Our investigation

00:06:26.560 also revealed

00:06:27.540 that senior FBI

00:06:28.500 personnel

00:06:29.140 displayed a serious

00:06:31.060 lack of analytical

00:06:32.100 rigor

00:06:32.920 towards the information

00:06:34.700 that they received,

00:06:36.600 especially information

00:06:38.220 from politically

00:06:39.200 affiliated

00:06:40.020 persons

00:06:40.860 and entities.

00:06:42.400 and the report

00:06:44.260 continues

00:06:44.820 in light

00:06:45.220 of the foregoing.

00:06:46.880 There is a continuing

00:06:47.620 need for the FBI

00:06:48.760 and the department

00:06:49.400 to recognize

00:06:50.100 that lack

00:06:50.960 of analytical rigor,

00:06:52.160 apparent

00:06:52.640 confirmation bias,

00:06:55.040 and an over-willingness

00:06:56.700 to rely on information

00:06:58.000 from individuals

00:06:59.100 connected

00:07:00.220 to political opponents

00:07:01.920 caused investigators

00:07:04.160 to fail

00:07:04.780 to adequately consider

00:07:05.900 alternative hypotheses

00:07:07.080 and to act

00:07:08.320 without appropriate

00:07:09.180 objectivity

00:07:10.400 or restraint

00:07:12.060 in pursuing

00:07:12.760 allegations

00:07:13.460 of collusion

00:07:14.240 or conspiracy

00:07:14.860 between a U.S.

00:07:15.800 political campaign

00:07:16.680 and a foreign power.

00:07:19.000 This is damning

00:07:20.540 and it shows

00:07:22.040 a combination

00:07:22.580 of people

00:07:23.440 on a

00:07:24.360 mission

00:07:26.000 to destroy

00:07:26.940 their political opponents

00:07:27.980 and perfectly happy

00:07:28.880 to use law enforcement

00:07:29.780 to do it

00:07:30.340 and others

00:07:31.640 who had

00:07:32.960 such a sense

00:07:33.900 of laxity

00:07:34.720 that they were

00:07:36.000 perfectly fine

00:07:36.840 to be part

00:07:37.260 of the process

00:07:37.860 and no one

00:07:38.760 who stood up

00:07:39.460 and said 0.78

00:07:39.880 what the hell

00:07:41.780 are we doing?

00:07:43.760 And that's what I wonder

00:07:44.980 is there no one

00:07:45.760 in DOJ,

00:07:46.580 no one in FBI

00:07:47.480 who had a shred

00:07:48.320 of integrity

00:07:49.020 who said

00:07:50.340 even if they're

00:07:52.740 a Democrat,

00:07:53.440 gosh,

00:07:53.740 I don't like Trump

00:07:54.500 but we don't have

00:07:55.800 evidence here

00:07:56.480 to launch

00:07:57.060 a massive investigation

00:07:58.120 to try to

00:07:59.000 influence

00:08:00.080 and shift

00:08:01.000 the results

00:08:01.720 of an election

00:08:02.340 and try to remove

00:08:03.360 a duly elected president.

00:08:04.800 As far as

00:08:05.920 this report

00:08:06.920 indicates

00:08:07.500 nobody

00:08:08.880 had that

00:08:10.260 integrity

00:08:10.700 to say that.

00:08:12.320 I want to talk

00:08:12.860 about naming names

00:08:13.740 and I think

00:08:14.220 this is part

00:08:14.980 of the accountability

00:08:15.740 that the American

00:08:16.720 people,

00:08:17.340 Senator,

00:08:17.560 are just sick

00:08:18.060 and tired of

00:08:18.620 and I've got

00:08:19.060 a list of people

00:08:19.840 and I want to ask

00:08:20.680 you if you believe

00:08:21.660 are they guilty

00:08:22.920 and should the

00:08:24.400 American people

00:08:25.000 trust them

00:08:25.540 and before I go

00:08:26.220 through that list

00:08:26.840 I want to talk

00:08:27.340 to you about

00:08:27.640 our friends over at

00:08:36.540 don't feel like

00:09:40.960 Senator, let's go

00:09:41.760 through this list

00:09:42.540 and very clearly

00:09:44.720 let's talk about

00:09:46.760 the players.

00:09:47.900 First of all,

00:09:48.620 let's start at the

00:09:49.220 top with the

00:09:49.740 FBI.

00:09:50.880 Is it clear that

00:09:51.680 the FBI was

00:09:52.420 guilty of lying to

00:09:53.120 the American people?

00:09:55.700 Unquestionably,

00:09:56.220 yes.

00:09:56.640 And in fact,

00:09:57.500 it is a fact.

00:09:59.060 So Andrew

00:09:59.480 Klein-Smith,

00:10:00.240 who I mentioned

00:10:01.440 before,

00:10:02.360 he was an

00:10:03.060 assistant general

00:10:03.780 counsel at the

00:10:04.360 FBI.

00:10:05.420 He fabricated,

00:10:06.900 he created a

00:10:07.720 counterfeit document.

00:10:08.900 He committed a

00:10:09.420 felony.

00:10:10.500 And the

00:10:11.440 circumstances of

00:10:13.020 that, as you

00:10:14.020 know, we've talked

00:10:14.720 about this on the

00:10:15.400 pod before.

00:10:16.460 The last book I

00:10:17.720 wrote,

00:10:18.200 Justice Corrupted,

00:10:19.200 How the Left

00:10:19.760 Has Weaponized

00:10:20.460 the Legal System.

00:10:21.160 And I encourage

00:10:21.760 folks, go buy

00:10:22.560 Justice Corrupted.

00:10:23.760 There's an entire

00:10:24.600 chapter that walks

00:10:25.880 through what the

00:10:27.360 DOJ did, what

00:10:28.260 the FBI did.

00:10:29.520 But Andrew

00:10:30.080 Klein-Smith was

00:10:32.320 seeking a

00:10:33.520 wiretap on

00:10:35.260 Carter Page.

00:10:36.120 Carter Page was

00:10:36.800 an academic.

00:10:37.540 He was giving

00:10:37.940 foreign policy

00:10:38.680 advice to the

00:10:39.380 Trump campaign.

00:10:40.240 This is in

00:10:40.820 2016, in the

00:10:42.480 summer and fall

00:10:43.100 of 2016.

00:10:44.840 And the

00:10:47.240 basis for the

00:10:48.160 wiretap was

00:10:48.980 Carter Page was

00:10:49.820 talking to some 0.66

00:10:50.660 shady Russians. 1.00

00:10:51.660 Now, generally

00:10:52.200 speaking, you

00:10:53.200 probably shouldn't

00:10:53.920 talk to shady 0.99

00:10:54.620 Russians.

00:10:55.860 But Andrew

00:10:56.700 Klein-Smith engaged

00:10:58.160 in a little due

00:10:58.740 diligence, and he

00:10:59.460 sent an email to

00:11:00.360 the CIA.

00:11:01.880 And he asked,

00:11:02.880 hey, is this

00:11:04.480 guy, Carter Page,

00:11:05.480 a source for the

00:11:06.640 CIA?

00:11:07.460 Now, if you

00:11:08.880 think about it,

00:11:09.760 the fact that

00:11:10.440 you're talking to 0.91

00:11:11.100 shady Russians, 0.97

00:11:11.940 ordinarily, maybe

00:11:12.780 that would be a

00:11:13.780 cause for suspicion.

00:11:15.420 But if you're

00:11:16.240 working for the

00:11:17.100 CIA, if you're

00:11:17.920 doing it on

00:11:18.740 behalf of the

00:11:19.540 United States

00:11:20.100 government, if

00:11:20.660 you're serving the

00:11:22.100 American people by

00:11:23.020 talking to shady 0.83

00:11:23.760 Russians, that's 1.00

00:11:25.060 that doesn't

00:11:25.460 raise suspicion,

00:11:26.140 that's actually a

00:11:26.940 good thing, you

00:11:27.440 ought to say

00:11:27.780 thank you.

00:11:29.140 So, Andrew

00:11:30.120 Klein-Smith emails

00:11:31.140 the CIA, says,

00:11:32.180 is Carter Page

00:11:32.800 a source for

00:11:33.360 you?

00:11:34.180 CIA emails back

00:11:35.320 and says, yes,

00:11:36.680 he is a source.

00:11:38.540 And Andrew

00:11:39.100 Klein-Smith, he

00:11:39.820 was such a

00:11:40.620 hardcore partisan,

00:11:41.860 he hated Trump

00:11:42.560 so much, he was

00:11:43.500 in an environment

00:11:44.260 where he was

00:11:45.080 surrounded by

00:11:45.740 hardcore partisans

00:11:46.620 that hated Trump

00:11:47.320 so much, they

00:11:48.040 wanted to go

00:11:48.640 after him.

00:11:49.480 He takes that

00:11:50.320 email, and he

00:11:51.780 alters it.

00:11:52.460 And he

00:11:53.300 doesn't alter

00:11:53.820 it slightly.

00:11:55.160 The email

00:11:55.620 says, yes,

00:11:56.580 Carter Page

00:11:57.120 is a source.

00:11:58.420 And Andrew

00:11:59.200 Klein-Smith changes

00:12:00.220 the email to

00:12:00.920 say, no,

00:12:02.980 Carter Page

00:12:03.600 is not a

00:12:04.580 source.

00:12:05.020 So he

00:12:05.600 alters it so

00:12:06.920 it says 180

00:12:08.240 degrees the

00:12:08.960 opposite of what

00:12:09.720 it said.

00:12:10.400 And then he

00:12:11.000 takes that

00:12:11.720 fraudulent

00:12:12.400 counterfeit

00:12:12.900 document, he

00:12:13.580 submits it to

00:12:14.440 the federal

00:12:14.820 court, the

00:12:15.280 FISA court,

00:12:15.860 and that

00:12:16.760 becomes one of

00:12:17.560 the important

00:12:18.140 bases for

00:12:19.880 seeking the

00:12:20.740 wiretap.

00:12:21.300 that is an

00:12:24.080 absolute

00:12:25.080 bombshell of

00:12:27.880 the FBI lying

00:12:29.120 to the American

00:12:29.700 people.

00:12:30.200 And listen, did

00:12:31.140 the other people

00:12:31.740 of the FBI lie?

00:12:32.860 Not directly, but

00:12:34.760 they created the

00:12:35.600 environment where

00:12:37.380 the DOJ and

00:12:38.460 the FBI viewed

00:12:39.820 getting Donald

00:12:41.300 Trump as the

00:12:43.300 preeminent

00:12:43.940 objective.

00:12:44.780 And so they

00:12:45.220 were willing to

00:12:46.440 ignore the

00:12:47.620 evidence.

00:12:48.820 And critically,

00:12:49.600 look, you look

00:12:50.100 at what Durham

00:12:50.600 said, they

00:12:52.080 had plenty of

00:12:52.780 indication that

00:12:53.720 this Steele

00:12:54.340 report was 1.00

00:12:55.420 garbage, that 1.00

00:12:57.120 it came for, 1.00

00:12:58.080 that it was

00:12:58.380 paid for by

00:12:59.080 the Hillary

00:12:59.440 Clinton campaign,

00:13:00.360 that it was

00:13:00.640 paid for by

00:13:01.260 the DNC.

00:13:02.080 And by the

00:13:02.440 way, law

00:13:03.340 enforcement in

00:13:04.040 a political

00:13:04.420 campaign ought

00:13:05.300 to view with

00:13:05.800 great skepticism

00:13:07.040 any oppo

00:13:08.820 document that

00:13:09.660 they receive

00:13:10.320 from someone's

00:13:11.040 political

00:13:11.380 opponent.

00:13:11.720 It doesn't

00:13:12.100 mean it

00:13:12.640 could never

00:13:13.200 be accurate,

00:13:14.380 but they

00:13:14.840 ought to

00:13:15.080 recognize whoever

00:13:15.880 prepared this

00:13:16.540 document has

00:13:17.220 every incentive

00:13:18.120 to lie, to

00:13:19.000 twist the

00:13:19.500 facts.

00:13:20.180 They want

00:13:20.780 to tear

00:13:21.160 this person

00:13:21.740 down, so

00:13:22.400 we should be

00:13:22.900 skeptical.

00:13:23.880 We should

00:13:24.420 not accept

00:13:25.080 it as face

00:13:25.600 value.

00:13:26.560 Because DOJ

00:13:27.660 and the FBI

00:13:28.360 hated Trump

00:13:29.040 so much,

00:13:30.300 they had none

00:13:31.160 of that

00:13:31.540 skepticism.

00:13:32.500 And that

00:13:33.500 is a failure

00:13:35.200 in the very

00:13:35.960 foundations of

00:13:37.200 how law

00:13:37.660 enforcement is

00:13:38.300 supposed to

00:13:38.680 operate.

00:13:39.600 The scary

00:13:39.920 part is what

00:13:40.540 you just

00:13:40.900 explained is

00:13:41.440 just the

00:13:41.960 FBI.

00:13:42.540 So let's

00:13:42.900 move on to

00:13:43.340 the DOJ.

00:13:44.180 Are they

00:13:44.440 guilty of lying

00:13:45.120 to the

00:13:45.360 American people

00:13:45.880 as well?

00:13:46.320 Of course

00:13:47.320 they are.

00:13:48.640 And the

00:13:49.500 DOJ, you

00:13:51.240 had people

00:13:51.680 like Bruce

00:13:52.280 Orr, whose

00:13:53.280 wife was 0.99

00:13:54.100 working with

00:13:54.840 Fusion GPS,

00:13:55.940 which was the

00:13:56.400 OPPO research

00:13:57.140 firm being

00:13:58.040 paid for by

00:13:58.820 Hillary Clinton,

00:13:59.500 and Bruce

00:13:59.860 Orr was an

00:14:00.480 associate deputy

00:14:01.520 attorney general

00:14:02.320 at the

00:14:02.540 Department of

00:14:03.000 Justice.

00:14:03.740 By the way,

00:14:04.420 under George

00:14:04.920 W. Bush, I

00:14:06.140 was an

00:14:06.460 associate deputy

00:14:07.220 attorney general

00:14:07.920 at the

00:14:08.120 Department of

00:14:08.540 Justice.

00:14:08.920 I've had

00:14:09.240 that job.

00:14:10.140 As an

00:14:10.520 aside, how

00:14:12.160 many times

00:14:12.760 do you have

00:14:13.120 a job that

00:14:13.680 has that many

00:14:14.280 modifiers?

00:14:15.460 Associate?

00:14:16.320 Yeah.

00:14:17.120 Deputy

00:14:17.640 attorney general.

00:14:19.260 It's a little

00:14:19.620 weird.

00:14:20.100 Government's

00:14:20.560 weird.

00:14:20.940 They call

00:14:21.620 that in

00:14:22.140 DOJ

00:14:22.560 parlance

00:14:23.100 an

00:14:23.720 ADAG.

00:14:24.380 By the

00:14:24.680 way, there's

00:14:25.040 a more

00:14:25.280 complicated

00:14:25.820 acronym, which

00:14:27.200 is there are

00:14:27.640 multiple

00:14:27.980 associate

00:14:28.480 deputies,

00:14:29.500 deputy

00:14:29.780 attorneys

00:14:30.180 general.

00:14:31.060 There's

00:14:31.540 also one

00:14:32.240 who is

00:14:32.560 the

00:14:32.740 principal

00:14:33.300 associate

00:14:34.440 deputy

00:14:34.920 attorney

00:14:35.240 general.

00:14:35.860 Instead

00:14:36.240 of an

00:14:36.540 ADAG,

00:14:36.980 that person's

00:14:37.520 called a

00:14:37.880 paydag,

00:14:38.920 because

00:14:39.420 government

00:14:39.920 can't exist

00:14:40.580 without

00:14:40.820 acronyms.

00:14:41.440 Bruce

00:14:42.640 Orr was

00:14:43.160 an

00:14:43.320 ADAG.

00:14:44.380 His

00:14:44.700 wife,

00:14:45.400 Nellie

00:14:45.700 Orr,

00:14:46.020 was working

00:14:46.600 for Fusion

00:14:47.120 GPS,

00:14:48.100 which was

00:14:48.580 on the

00:14:49.120 payroll of

00:14:49.760 Hillary Clinton.

00:14:51.060 And once

00:14:52.300 the FBI and

00:14:54.280 the Department

00:14:54.660 of Justice

00:14:55.140 stopped

00:14:55.780 dealing with

00:14:57.140 Steele,

00:14:58.100 who created

00:14:58.520 the Steele

00:14:58.940 dossier,

00:14:59.500 because he

00:14:59.840 had all

00:15:00.120 sorts of

00:15:00.560 reasons to

00:15:01.040 be untrustworthy,

00:15:03.000 Bruce Orr

00:15:03.480 and Nellie

00:15:03.900 Orr became

00:15:04.360 a back

00:15:04.800 channel,

00:15:05.400 and he

00:15:05.720 didn't tell

00:15:06.160 anyone.

00:15:06.500 So it

00:15:06.940 was the

00:15:07.260 Department

00:15:07.640 of Justice

00:15:08.180 again,

00:15:09.220 he was

00:15:09.760 perfectly

00:15:10.280 willing to

00:15:10.980 circumvent

00:15:11.640 the process

00:15:12.260 because he

00:15:14.040 hated Donald

00:15:14.680 Trump.

00:15:15.120 And it's

00:15:15.480 important to

00:15:15.940 understand,

00:15:17.140 the environment,

00:15:18.420 everyone there

00:15:19.260 thought there

00:15:20.120 is no universe

00:15:21.020 in which Trump

00:15:21.660 can win.

00:15:22.540 So we can

00:15:23.440 use all of

00:15:24.240 government to

00:15:24.760 attack him,

00:15:25.900 because Hillary 0.98

00:15:26.920 Clinton will be

00:15:27.580 president,

00:15:28.200 will have some

00:15:29.020 radical left

00:15:29.900 winger as

00:15:30.380 attorney general,

00:15:32.160 and so whatever

00:15:32.900 we do, we'll

00:15:33.580 never see the

00:15:34.080 light of day.

00:15:34.560 No one will

00:15:35.020 know it,

00:15:35.480 because Trump

00:15:37.220 will lose,

00:15:39.060 we're safe.

00:15:40.420 And then

00:15:40.820 suddenly Trump

00:15:41.500 won, and

00:15:41.940 they're like, 0.71

00:15:42.320 holy crap, 0.87

00:15:43.000 what do we 0.99

00:15:43.460 do, what do

00:15:43.900 we do?

00:15:44.220 And they

00:15:44.420 made a

00:15:44.760 decision.

00:15:45.800 So November,

00:15:47.120 December 2016,

00:15:48.920 January 2017,

00:15:50.340 they had a

00:15:51.000 moment where

00:15:51.420 they could

00:15:51.760 have said,

00:15:52.480 you know,

00:15:52.960 abandon ship,

00:15:53.860 let's stop

00:15:54.460 this attack,

00:15:55.200 he's the

00:15:55.520 newly elected

00:15:56.080 president,

00:15:56.680 let's respect

00:15:57.320 democracy.

00:15:58.720 He's the

00:15:59.180 president, we

00:15:59.720 don't like him,

00:16:00.380 but he's the

00:16:00.900 president, let's

00:16:02.700 accept his

00:16:03.960 legitimacy.

00:16:04.540 They not

00:16:05.300 only didn't

00:16:05.880 do that,

00:16:06.820 they made

00:16:07.500 the decision

00:16:08.240 to do

00:16:08.740 everything they

00:16:09.720 could to

00:16:10.160 tear him

00:16:10.580 down.

00:16:11.600 This was,

00:16:12.900 I believe,

00:16:13.760 the greatest

00:16:14.560 internal coup

00:16:16.020 within the

00:16:17.300 federal government

00:16:17.960 that our

00:16:18.660 nation has

00:16:19.500 ever seen.

00:16:20.320 And Trump

00:16:20.740 said,

00:16:21.220 they're

00:16:21.640 wiretapping

00:16:22.340 me, he

00:16:22.740 was right.

00:16:23.520 Trump said

00:16:24.120 they're coming

00:16:24.520 after me, he

00:16:25.180 was right.

00:16:25.980 Trump said

00:16:26.520 this is a

00:16:26.980 witch hunt, he

00:16:27.600 was right.

00:16:28.580 Listen, there

00:16:29.320 are lots of

00:16:29.780 things that

00:16:30.260 Trump says and

00:16:30.920 does that I

00:16:31.480 don't agree

00:16:31.920 with, but

00:16:33.460 the behavior

00:16:34.280 of DOJ

00:16:36.200 and the

00:16:36.680 FBI in

00:16:38.520 this

00:16:38.860 investigation

00:16:39.560 is without

00:16:40.820 exaggeration

00:16:41.880 the most

00:16:43.300 shameful

00:16:43.960 chapter in

00:16:44.800 the history

00:16:45.460 of the

00:16:46.220 Department of

00:16:46.760 Justice and

00:16:47.380 the FBI,

00:16:48.280 and there

00:16:49.200 is yet to

00:16:50.040 be real

00:16:51.060 accountability

00:16:51.560 for this

00:16:52.380 absolute

00:16:53.200 abuse of

00:16:53.900 power.

00:16:55.000 Yeah, it's

00:16:55.720 truly incredible

00:16:56.780 to see two

00:16:57.420 organizations use

00:16:58.460 this way.

00:16:58.860 Let's start

00:16:59.400 talking about

00:16:59.820 individuals.

00:17:01.160 Senator James

00:17:01.980 Comey, did he 0.97

00:17:02.840 lie to the

00:17:03.280 American people?

00:17:05.860 Repeatedly,

00:17:06.600 shamelessly,

00:17:07.440 unabashedly.

00:17:08.440 Look, James

00:17:09.020 Comey is

00:17:09.580 someone who

00:17:10.100 is deeply

00:17:10.800 political.

00:17:11.940 He was

00:17:12.660 deeply

00:17:13.040 political under

00:17:13.900 George W.

00:17:14.580 Bush.

00:17:15.220 He was

00:17:15.520 Deputy Attorney

00:17:16.140 General under

00:17:16.820 George W.

00:17:17.460 Bush.

00:17:18.300 He was

00:17:19.040 deeply

00:17:19.460 political under

00:17:20.280 Barack Obama.

00:17:21.860 He held

00:17:22.360 his big

00:17:22.800 press conference

00:17:23.620 where he

00:17:24.160 said, okay,

00:17:25.100 Hillary violated

00:17:26.460 the law when

00:17:27.380 she dealt with

00:17:27.860 her emails, but

00:17:28.680 it's not

00:17:29.060 enough to

00:17:29.580 indict.

00:17:30.240 That was

00:17:30.600 not the

00:17:30.980 job of

00:17:31.660 an FBI

00:17:32.120 director, but

00:17:32.880 he, I

00:17:33.840 think James

00:17:34.540 Comey fancies

00:17:36.200 himself as

00:17:36.940 J. Edgar

00:17:37.340 Hoover.

00:17:38.260 He wanted to

00:17:39.120 be the most

00:17:39.640 powerful FBI

00:17:40.560 director ever.

00:17:41.540 He wanted to

00:17:42.000 use his

00:17:42.580 power.

00:17:44.040 And look,

00:17:45.740 when I look

00:17:46.360 back to the

00:17:46.920 Trump presidency,

00:17:48.300 there are many,

00:17:49.620 many big

00:17:50.500 victories that we

00:17:51.480 won during the

00:17:52.220 Trump presidencies,

00:17:53.220 victories that I

00:17:53.960 worked hand in

00:17:54.860 hand with Donald

00:17:55.520 Trump to win,

00:17:56.700 big victories for

00:17:57.580 the American

00:17:58.000 people.

00:17:58.680 When I look

00:17:59.840 back at mistakes

00:18:01.120 in the Trump

00:18:01.740 presidency, there

00:18:03.620 were multiple,

00:18:05.120 but I don't know

00:18:05.900 that any was as

00:18:07.120 big as the fact

00:18:08.860 that Trump did

00:18:09.580 not fire James

00:18:10.700 Comey.

00:18:11.200 On January 20,

00:18:12.840 2017, I believe

00:18:14.060 Donald Trump

00:18:14.640 should have called

00:18:15.180 James Comey in

00:18:16.000 and said, Mr.

00:18:16.620 Comey, thank you

00:18:17.760 for your service

00:18:18.280 to the nation.

00:18:19.000 Your services

00:18:19.560 are no longer

00:18:20.260 required.

00:18:21.140 And the Trump

00:18:21.940 White House, I

00:18:22.640 think very naively,

00:18:24.060 believed they could

00:18:25.460 co-opt James

00:18:26.660 Comey.

00:18:27.020 They could bring

00:18:27.640 him on board,

00:18:28.260 they could make

00:18:28.700 him on board

00:18:29.160 the team,

00:18:29.640 and they did

00:18:30.140 not understand

00:18:31.060 the radiant

00:18:32.500 ambition in James

00:18:33.740 Comey, where 1.00

00:18:34.720 Comey went in

00:18:36.000 wanting to take

00:18:37.360 down Donald Trump,

00:18:38.500 and he should

00:18:38.860 have, if he'd

00:18:39.500 been fired on

00:18:40.380 day one, it

00:18:41.880 would have saved

00:18:42.680 the Trump

00:18:43.140 administration

00:18:44.020 thousands upon

00:18:46.040 thousands of

00:18:46.840 hours of

00:18:47.420 misery.

00:18:48.860 And it was a

00:18:49.560 serious mistake

00:18:50.300 because Comey 1.00

00:18:51.180 was more than

00:18:52.120 happy to try

00:18:53.600 to weaponize

00:18:54.580 the FBI

00:18:55.180 against a

00:18:55.900 president he

00:18:56.480 did not like

00:18:57.180 and did not

00:18:57.620 agree with.

00:18:58.920 Canadian women

00:18:59.780 are looking for

00:19:00.460 more.

00:19:01.100 More out of

00:19:01.480 themselves, their

00:19:02.300 businesses, their

00:19:03.240 elected leaders,

00:19:04.080 and the world

00:19:04.640 around them.

00:19:05.300 And that's why

00:19:05.740 we're thrilled to

00:19:06.440 introduce the

00:19:07.280 Honest Talk

00:19:07.940 podcast.

00:19:17.880 and newsmakers

00:19:24.160 Listen to the

00:19:26.760 wherever you

00:19:27.300 listen to your

00:19:27.740 podcasts.

00:19:29.880 Let's talk about 0.68

00:19:30.760 the biggest liar 0.98

00:19:31.580 of all who 0.99

00:19:32.460 started all,

00:19:33.420 Hillary Clinton.

00:19:34.780 And should

00:19:35.560 Hillary Clinton

00:19:36.380 have actually not

00:19:37.880 just be called

00:19:39.460 a liar, 0.89

00:19:40.180 Senator, but 0.99

00:19:40.620 should she be

00:19:42.100 held accountable

00:19:42.980 for what she

00:19:44.360 did?

00:19:44.800 And let me

00:19:45.240 remind everybody

00:19:46.300 of what Hillary

00:19:47.660 Clinton said

00:19:48.640 about this

00:19:50.300 lie back in

00:19:51.440 the day in

00:19:52.200 one of her

00:19:52.660 interviews.

00:19:53.440 To our

00:19:53.740 future, the

00:19:54.400 damage being

00:19:55.000 done to our

00:19:55.720 values, our

00:19:56.700 institutions, and

00:19:57.920 try to think of

00:19:58.700 ways that I can

00:19:59.560 help those who

00:20:00.280 are on the

00:20:00.800 front lines of

00:20:01.400 the fight.

00:20:01.900 Your name

00:20:02.220 doesn't come

00:20:02.740 up much on

00:20:03.820 any campaign

00:20:05.260 except for

00:20:06.280 Donald Trump's.

00:20:08.220 Lock her up 0.79

00:20:09.000 is still a big

00:20:10.500 popular line.

00:20:12.560 I believe he

00:20:13.400 knows he's an

00:20:14.080 illegitimate

00:20:14.640 president.

00:20:15.100 He knows, he

00:20:16.660 knows that there

00:20:18.400 were a bunch of

00:20:20.220 different reasons

00:20:21.000 why the election

00:20:22.440 turned out the

00:20:23.340 way it did.

00:20:24.080 And I take

00:20:24.580 responsibility for

00:20:25.460 those parts of

00:20:26.040 it that I

00:20:26.660 should, but

00:20:27.380 Jane, it was

00:20:27.760 like applying

00:20:28.360 for a job and

00:20:29.200 getting 66

00:20:30.360 million letters

00:20:31.920 of recommendation

00:20:33.360 and losing to

00:20:34.800 a corrupt 0.99

00:20:35.940 human tornado. 0.99

00:20:37.200 And so I

00:20:38.060 know that he

00:20:39.120 knows that this

00:20:40.700 wasn't on the

00:20:41.220 level.

00:20:41.700 I don't know

00:20:42.220 that we'll ever

00:20:42.720 know everything

00:20:43.440 that happened,

00:20:44.240 but clearly we

00:20:44.980 know a lot and

00:20:46.060 are learning more

00:20:46.640 every day and

00:20:47.300 history will probably

00:20:48.440 sort it all out.

00:20:49.400 So of course he's

00:20:50.060 obsessed with me and

00:20:51.440 I believe that it's

00:20:53.820 a guilty conscience

00:20:54.780 in so much as

00:20:55.400 it's a guilty

00:20:56.480 conscience.

00:20:57.220 Quote, he knows

00:20:57.820 he's an illegitimate

00:20:58.740 president.

00:20:59.920 I know that he

00:21:01.100 knows this wasn't

00:21:02.160 on the level.

00:21:03.600 History will probably

00:21:04.600 sort it all out.

00:21:05.840 Well, we now know

00:21:06.540 the history,

00:21:07.280 Senator.

00:21:07.480 Well, I gotta

00:21:09.360 say in 2023

00:21:10.580 I'm shocked

00:21:11.540 to hear a

00:21:12.760 Democrat

00:21:13.160 saying that

00:21:14.640 someone is an 0.71

00:21:15.300 illegitimate president

00:21:16.320 because I thought

00:21:17.800 that was like

00:21:18.840 undermining

00:21:19.440 democracy.

00:21:20.340 I thought that

00:21:20.840 was election

00:21:21.400 denialism.

00:21:22.760 And you'll

00:21:23.500 recall

00:21:23.980 when I went

00:21:26.020 last year,

00:21:27.460 last October

00:21:28.220 on The View

00:21:29.460 it was,

00:21:30.740 all right,

00:21:31.040 candidly,

00:21:32.000 you want to

00:21:32.680 talk about some

00:21:33.260 of the most

00:21:33.620 fun 24 hours

00:21:34.640 I had in my

00:21:35.140 life.

00:21:35.500 That was a

00:21:37.960 great trip

00:21:38.440 for you.

00:21:39.240 So, on October

00:21:40.240 evening,

00:21:41.160 a crisp,

00:21:42.060 beautiful fall

00:21:43.140 evening,

00:21:43.960 I go up to

00:21:44.820 New York City

00:21:45.420 and I go to

00:21:46.540 Yankee Stadium.

00:21:48.120 And in Yankee

00:21:48.760 Stadium,

00:21:49.520 I watch my

00:21:51.260 Houston Astros

00:21:52.220 sweep the 0.98

00:21:53.180 Yankees.

00:21:54.420 In Yankee

00:21:55.180 Stadium,

00:21:55.740 it's game

00:21:56.080 four,

00:21:56.520 we won four

00:21:57.120 games in a

00:21:57.580 row in the

00:21:57.940 ALCS.

00:21:59.360 And as you

00:22:00.280 know,

00:22:00.900 I was in

00:22:02.020 the second

00:22:02.520 row behind

00:22:04.620 home

00:22:05.340 plate and

00:22:06.780 I was in

00:22:07.440 bright orange

00:22:08.620 Astros colors

00:22:10.180 proudly representing

00:22:11.520 the Astros.

00:22:12.280 And I got to

00:22:12.620 say there were

00:22:13.080 at least

00:22:13.700 a hundred,

00:22:14.720 if not more

00:22:15.260 New Yorkers

00:22:15.940 who suggested

00:22:17.400 that I do

00:22:18.060 something

00:22:18.620 anatomically

00:22:20.000 impossible.

00:22:22.200 They were

00:22:22.860 fairly energized.

00:22:24.320 They were

00:22:24.940 fairly pissed.

00:22:25.880 And look,

00:22:26.400 my response

00:22:27.120 when they were

00:22:27.600 mad,

00:22:27.980 I'd just smile

00:22:28.740 and point up

00:22:29.400 and say

00:22:29.680 scoreboard.

00:22:30.720 Because,

00:22:31.540 look,

00:22:31.800 I get it.

00:22:32.400 If you're a 0.88

00:22:32.900 sports fan

00:22:33.460 and you go

00:22:33.820 into the

00:22:34.140 opposing team

00:22:34.960 stadium and

00:22:36.240 you sweep

00:22:36.700 them,

00:22:37.020 they're pissed.

00:22:38.160 That was

00:22:38.740 fun.

00:22:39.960 I will say,

00:22:41.020 and by the

00:22:41.400 way,

00:22:41.640 the press

00:22:42.060 and the

00:22:42.740 Twitter went

00:22:43.940 crazy with

00:22:44.520 all the people

00:22:45.040 yelling expletives

00:22:46.440 at me.

00:22:46.820 They didn't

00:22:47.440 actually write

00:22:48.100 down the

00:22:48.620 hundreds of

00:22:49.360 New Yorkers

00:22:49.800 who took

00:22:50.040 pictures with

00:22:50.640 me and

00:22:51.000 said,

00:22:51.800 even in

00:22:52.280 Yankee

00:22:52.580 Stadium,

00:22:53.400 thank you

00:22:54.040 for fighting

00:22:54.520 to save

00:22:54.860 our country.

00:22:55.300 Now,

00:22:55.400 they also

00:22:55.800 said,

00:22:56.420 I hate

00:22:57.140 the Astros

00:22:57.580 and want

00:22:57.840 the Yankees

00:22:58.200 to win.

00:22:58.580 Okay,

00:22:58.780 that's great.

00:22:59.280 That's sports.

00:22:59.840 That's the

00:23:00.160 beauty of sports

00:23:00.820 is you root

00:23:01.280 for your

00:23:01.560 teams.

00:23:03.720 The next

00:23:04.500 day,

00:23:05.480 after we

00:23:06.700 swept the

00:23:07.100 Yankees and

00:23:07.520 went to the

00:23:07.860 World Series

00:23:08.280 and went on

00:23:08.680 to win the

00:23:09.040 World Series,

00:23:09.640 not to

00:23:10.220 irritate any

00:23:11.540 of the sore

00:23:12.200 sentiments of

00:23:13.120 other teams

00:23:13.860 that did not

00:23:14.480 win last

00:23:14.940 year,

00:23:15.880 but the

00:23:16.220 next day I

00:23:16.760 went on

00:23:17.040 the View

00:23:17.360 and the

00:23:18.260 View,

00:23:18.700 if anything,

00:23:19.640 the View

00:23:20.000 was more

00:23:20.740 hostile than

00:23:22.660 being in

00:23:23.200 Yankee Stadium

00:23:24.000 in Game

00:23:24.420 4 of the

00:23:24.860 LCS in

00:23:25.780 Astros

00:23:26.220 Orange.

00:23:27.480 The View,

00:23:28.980 these rabid 0.57

00:23:30.760 left-wing 0.97

00:23:31.340 women, 1.00

00:23:31.820 and by

00:23:32.080 the way,

00:23:32.300 they were

00:23:32.480 nasty when

00:23:32.980 the camera

00:23:33.360 was off.

00:23:33.960 It wasn't

00:23:34.340 even just

00:23:34.960 like that's

00:23:35.740 their persona.

00:23:37.500 They look

00:23:38.240 at you,

00:23:38.920 Ben,

00:23:39.140 they look

00:23:39.460 at me,

00:23:39.900 they look

00:23:40.220 at conservatives,

00:23:41.120 they hate

00:23:41.500 us,

00:23:41.960 but one

00:23:42.520 of the

00:23:42.800 things they

00:23:43.320 said is

00:23:43.800 they screamed,

00:23:45.200 you are

00:23:45.660 election

00:23:46.300 deniers,

00:23:47.480 and I

00:23:47.740 pulled out

00:23:48.500 quote after

00:23:49.380 quote that I

00:23:49.940 brought with

00:23:50.500 me of Hillary

00:23:51.540 Clinton saying

00:23:52.180 what you just

00:23:52.960 played,

00:23:53.380 of Joe Biden

00:23:54.040 saying that

00:23:55.100 George W.

00:23:55.840 Bush was an

00:23:56.360 illegitimate

00:23:56.840 president.

00:23:58.580 Over and

00:23:59.340 over again,

00:23:59.860 Democrats saying

00:24:00.740 this,

00:24:01.220 and they

00:24:02.580 didn't know

00:24:02.940 what to say

00:24:03.380 in response.

00:24:04.040 They're just

00:24:04.400 like,

00:24:04.700 no,

00:24:05.280 no,

00:24:05.640 we have

00:24:05.940 alternate

00:24:06.280 facts.

00:24:07.180 We don't

00:24:07.500 believe Democrats

00:24:08.880 have ever

00:24:09.180 said that,

00:24:09.780 and what's

00:24:10.160 funny,

00:24:11.540 a couple of

00:24:12.160 weeks later,

00:24:13.960 Chelsea Clinton,

00:24:14.820 Hillary's daughter,

00:24:15.540 was on the

00:24:16.000 View,

00:24:16.260 and they

00:24:16.480 asked her,

00:24:16.960 they said,

00:24:17.340 Cruz said

00:24:18.040 that your

00:24:18.580 mom denied

00:24:20.020 the election

00:24:21.560 was legitimate.

00:24:23.300 What do you

00:24:23.760 say to that?

00:24:24.500 And Chelsea

00:24:25.280 was perfectly

00:24:26.000 happy to repeat

00:24:26.860 their talking

00:24:27.380 points and say,

00:24:27.880 oh,

00:24:28.060 my mom never

00:24:28.540 said that.

00:24:29.520 Now,

00:24:29.820 mind you,

00:24:31.260 what Hillary 0.96

00:24:31.760 said is public

00:24:32.440 record.

00:24:32.860 She said that

00:24:33.480 repeatedly,

00:24:34.060 that he's an

00:24:34.780 illegitimate

00:24:35.420 president.

00:24:36.240 Why?

00:24:37.220 Because Democrats

00:24:38.220 are willing to

00:24:39.200 abuse government

00:24:41.080 and to lie

00:24:42.620 when they don't

00:24:43.380 get the political

00:24:44.020 outcome they

00:24:44.680 want.

00:24:45.780 No doubt.

00:24:46.820 There's also

00:24:47.680 another part of

00:24:48.440 this that's

00:24:48.820 infuriating for,

00:24:49.920 I think,

00:24:50.120 so many Americans

00:24:51.080 listening,

00:24:52.400 Senator,

00:24:52.560 and that's the

00:24:53.000 fact,

00:24:53.360 you just

00:24:53.740 mentioned,

00:24:54.340 obviously,

00:24:55.020 Hillary Clinton

00:24:55.680 there.

00:24:56.020 But you

00:24:56.780 mentioned James

00:24:57.440 Comey.

00:24:58.020 You have

00:24:58.620 Andrew McCabe.

00:24:59.820 You have

00:25:00.120 Peter Strzok.

00:25:01.400 You have

00:25:01.800 Lisa Page.

00:25:03.140 Hell,

00:25:03.360 you've got

00:25:03.640 the FISA

00:25:04.340 judges.

00:25:06.340 You've got

00:25:06.800 Rod Rosenstein.

00:25:08.200 You have

00:25:08.760 Christopher

00:25:09.240 Ray.

00:25:10.280 You have

00:25:11.160 Lisa Monaco.

00:25:12.760 You have

00:25:13.200 John Brennan.

00:25:14.800 You've got

00:25:15.220 James Clapper,

00:25:16.880 Christopher

00:25:17.220 Steele,

00:25:18.520 and John

00:25:19.480 Podesta.

00:25:20.580 All of these

00:25:21.280 people.

00:25:21.580 Are you

00:25:22.360 trying to 0.97

00:25:22.760 piss me

00:25:23.140 off?

00:25:23.640 Like,

00:25:23.720 with that

00:25:24.940 array of

00:25:26.060 names,

00:25:27.040 I'm sitting

00:25:27.620 here very

00:25:28.080 calm and

00:25:28.560 peaceful,

00:25:29.140 and you

00:25:29.800 really are

00:25:30.460 pushing my

00:25:31.580 buttons.

00:25:33.240 It's my

00:25:33.840 job,

00:25:34.240 sir.

00:25:34.540 I get

00:25:35.100 paid to

00:25:35.500 do this.

00:25:36.280 But you

00:25:36.580 listen to

00:25:37.180 that list.

00:25:38.420 And by

00:25:38.840 the way,

00:25:39.300 the dollar

00:25:40.020 an hour we

00:25:40.620 pay you,

00:25:41.100 we'll double

00:25:41.500 it right now.

00:25:42.340 Thank you.

00:25:42.840 Good.

00:25:43.100 I like that,

00:25:44.280 because that

00:25:44.520 was a hell

00:25:44.920 of a montage

00:25:45.460 of guilty

00:25:46.000 people I

00:25:46.560 just mentioned.

00:25:47.320 So I

00:25:47.600 deserve a

00:25:48.200 bonus for

00:25:48.740 that.

00:25:49.480 But there

00:25:49.840 are people

00:25:50.320 that are

00:25:50.700 going to

00:25:50.900 listen.

00:25:51.160 They're

00:25:51.380 going to

00:25:51.560 say,

00:25:52.140 look,

00:25:52.620 it's

00:25:53.180 infuriating

00:25:54.020 that this

00:25:54.440 term report

00:25:55.020 is confirming

00:25:55.700 that Russian 1.00

00:25:56.220 collusion was

00:25:56.900 a lie.

00:25:57.820 And if you

00:25:58.180 have a

00:25:58.480 brain,

00:25:59.020 we all

00:25:59.580 knew that

00:26:00.040 since day

00:26:00.640 one.

00:26:01.260 But knowing

00:26:02.380 that these

00:26:03.380 people that

00:26:04.080 we just

00:26:04.580 mentioned

00:26:05.200 were guilty

00:26:07.020 of doing

00:26:08.420 this,

00:26:09.060 and they're

00:26:09.780 all going

00:26:10.280 to walk

00:26:10.640 around,

00:26:10.920 is there

00:26:11.240 going to

00:26:11.420 be any

00:26:12.340 accountability

00:26:13.000 for them?

00:26:15.580 Sadly,

00:26:16.400 I'm not

00:26:17.040 convinced there

00:26:17.620 will be.

00:26:18.540 The New York

00:26:19.460 Times and the

00:26:20.060 Washington

00:26:20.420 Post both

00:26:22.040 won Pulitzer

00:26:22.820 prizes for

00:26:24.320 their reporting

00:26:25.080 on this 1.00

00:26:25.820 garbage Russian 1.00

00:26:27.080 collusion 1.00

00:26:27.600 story.

00:26:28.700 We now

00:26:29.380 know from

00:26:30.020 the Durham

00:26:30.560 report that

00:26:31.200 the story

00:26:31.640 was a

00:26:32.060 lie from

00:26:32.480 day one,

00:26:33.680 and yet I

00:26:35.540 feel absolutely

00:26:36.260 certain the

00:26:36.840 New York

00:26:37.140 Times will

00:26:37.740 not return

00:26:38.280 their Pulitzer.

00:26:39.400 The Washington

00:26:40.220 Post will

00:26:40.780 not return

00:26:41.280 their Pulitzer.

00:26:42.580 The reporters

00:26:44.140 who reported

00:26:45.020 on lies,

00:26:45.700 who were

00:26:45.900 complicit with

00:26:46.520 lies,

00:26:46.860 who these

00:26:47.300 FBI and

00:26:47.960 DOJ people

00:26:48.620 were leaking

00:26:49.180 to like

00:26:49.720 sieves to

00:26:50.620 spread the 0.92

00:26:51.160 lies.

00:26:52.500 They will

00:26:52.960 continue to

00:26:53.980 go to

00:26:54.280 parties,

00:26:54.760 to go to

00:26:55.100 professional

00:26:55.540 gatherings,

00:26:56.060 where they

00:26:56.520 will be

00:26:56.860 introduced as

00:26:57.840 the Pulitzer

00:26:59.060 prize-winning

00:27:00.120 journalist,

00:27:01.540 and they are

00:27:02.140 literally lying

00:27:03.180 propagandists. 0.54

00:27:04.740 If there was a

00:27:05.740 shred of 0.91

00:27:06.360 integrity in the

00:27:07.220 New York

00:27:07.500 Times or the

00:27:08.040 Washington Post,

00:27:08.760 they'd return the

00:27:09.420 Pulitzers and 0.81

00:27:10.120 say, we're

00:27:10.980 sorry we're

00:27:11.620 participating in a

00:27:12.460 lie.

00:27:13.120 The chances

00:27:13.840 of that

00:27:14.220 happening are

00:27:14.780 zero, because

00:27:15.980 there's not a

00:27:16.620 shred of 0.91

00:27:16.940 integrity in

00:27:17.600 them.

00:27:18.420 But I will

00:27:19.700 say also, as

00:27:20.500 I read this

00:27:21.120 report, listen,

00:27:23.080 I'm glad that

00:27:23.820 Durham has

00:27:24.400 cataloged that

00:27:25.400 these were

00:27:25.780 lies, but I'm

00:27:27.540 also angry.

00:27:29.540 Durham was

00:27:30.320 not a

00:27:31.540 blogger.

00:27:32.820 He was not

00:27:33.380 someone who

00:27:33.960 was just

00:27:34.360 entitled to

00:27:35.000 write some

00:27:35.460 thoughts.

00:27:36.520 He was not

00:27:36.960 a podcaster,

00:27:37.760 by the way.

00:27:39.500 Durham was

00:27:40.160 a special

00:27:41.080 counsel,

00:27:41.860 with the

00:27:43.300 power to

00:27:43.980 bring

00:27:44.360 indictments.

00:27:45.780 I read this

00:27:46.760 whole thing and

00:27:47.420 I say, Mr.

00:27:48.720 Durham, who 0.65

00:27:49.320 the hell did

00:27:49.900 you indict?

00:27:51.540 If we saw

00:27:53.140 a massive

00:27:54.000 dishonesty, if

00:27:55.080 we saw a

00:27:55.640 massive lie to

00:27:56.620 the American

00:27:57.120 people, if we

00:27:58.220 saw a massive

00:27:59.040 corruption of

00:28:00.280 the Department

00:28:00.820 of Justice and

00:28:01.620 the FBI, bring

00:28:02.980 an indictment.

00:28:04.580 Stand up and

00:28:05.520 hold people to

00:28:06.320 accountable.

00:28:07.260 And there's a

00:28:07.940 paragraph in

00:28:08.700 Durham's report

00:28:09.540 that makes me

00:28:10.040 particularly angry.

00:28:10.840 I just want to

00:28:11.300 read it.

00:28:12.380 This report

00:28:13.480 does not

00:28:14.760 recommend any

00:28:15.520 wholesale changes

00:28:16.580 in the guidelines

00:28:17.380 and policies that

00:28:18.800 the Department

00:28:19.800 and the FBI

00:28:20.540 now have in

00:28:21.260 place to

00:28:22.320 ensure proper

00:28:23.140 conduct and

00:28:23.820 accountability in

00:28:25.300 how counterintelligence

00:28:26.540 activities are

00:28:27.200 carried out.

00:28:28.560 Rather, it is

00:28:29.580 intended to

00:28:30.200 accurately describe

00:28:31.260 the matters that

00:28:31.960 fell under our

00:28:32.720 review and to

00:28:34.020 assist the

00:28:34.620 Attorney General

00:28:35.300 in determining

00:28:35.880 how the

00:28:36.260 Department and

00:28:36.860 the FBI can

00:28:37.680 do a better,

00:28:38.720 more credible

00:28:39.820 job.

00:28:40.380 I've got to

00:28:41.460 admit, reading

00:28:41.940 that is just,

00:28:44.020 it puts me

00:28:44.600 to sleep.

00:28:45.500 But let me

00:28:45.940 continue.

00:28:46.960 Ultimately, of

00:28:47.660 course, meeting

00:28:48.140 these responsibilities

00:28:48.940 comes down to

00:28:49.960 the integrity

00:28:50.680 of the people

00:28:51.860 who take an

00:28:52.440 oath to follow

00:28:53.040 the guidelines.

00:28:53.840 As an aside,

00:28:55.000 their integrity

00:28:55.600 was zero because

00:28:56.420 they didn't follow

00:28:57.000 the guidelines and

00:28:57.840 they corrupted

00:28:58.680 the process.

00:28:59.920 And policies

00:29:00.920 currently in

00:29:01.660 place.

00:29:02.820 Guidelines that

00:29:03.540 date from the

00:29:04.320 time of Attorney

00:29:05.200 General Levi

00:29:06.040 and that are

00:29:06.600 designed to

00:29:07.280 ensure the

00:29:07.880 rule of law

00:29:08.480 is upheld.

00:29:09.840 As such, the

00:29:11.800 answer is not

00:29:13.040 the creation of

00:29:14.060 new rules, but

00:29:15.760 a renewed

00:29:16.440 fidelity to the

00:29:18.380 old.

00:29:19.160 What utter and 1.00

00:29:20.420 complete garbage. 1.00

00:29:23.080 If we've seen, 0.99

00:29:24.460 look, I'm an

00:29:26.300 alumnus of the

00:29:26.940 Department of

00:29:27.440 Justice.

00:29:27.900 I revere the

00:29:28.660 Department of

00:29:29.180 Justice.

00:29:30.100 In my role as

00:29:31.120 senator, I hear

00:29:32.320 routinely from

00:29:34.800 FBI agents, from

00:29:36.020 DOJ prosecutors

00:29:38.000 who are furious.

00:29:39.660 How was our

00:29:41.000 institution of

00:29:42.700 law enforcement

00:29:43.460 that is

00:29:43.920 decidedly

00:29:46.060 apolitical,

00:29:47.240 how was it

00:29:48.180 turned into

00:29:48.860 corrupt and 1.00

00:29:49.740 dishonest

00:29:50.400 machinery that

00:29:51.980 became the

00:29:52.720 legal attack

00:29:53.880 dogs of the 0.86

00:29:55.140 Hillary Clinton

00:29:55.720 Nopo Research

00:29:56.600 Department?

00:29:58.100 What John

00:29:59.020 Durham did is

00:29:59.900 say this is all

00:30:00.640 terrible, but

00:30:01.940 we're not going

00:30:02.300 to do anything.

00:30:03.380 Nobody's going

00:30:03.840 to be indicted.

00:30:04.500 Nobody's going

00:30:04.940 to be fired.

00:30:05.660 Nobody's going

00:30:06.100 to be held to

00:30:06.520 consequence.

00:30:07.600 Oh, it's a

00:30:08.340 shame we just

00:30:09.840 saw a bloodless

00:30:11.580 coup unfold in

00:30:14.660 our Department of

00:30:15.620 Justice and

00:30:16.200 FBI, but

00:30:17.220 tsk, tsk, let's

00:30:18.820 try not to do

00:30:19.500 that again.

00:30:20.760 Nobody's held

00:30:21.500 accountable.

00:30:22.240 That makes me

00:30:23.380 angry.

00:30:24.600 Mr. Durham,

00:30:25.840 you're not in

00:30:27.080 charge of writing

00:30:27.920 op-eds.

00:30:28.820 You have the

00:30:29.440 power of

00:30:29.940 convening a

00:30:30.460 grand jury.

00:30:31.000 You have the

00:30:31.480 power of

00:30:31.980 bringing

00:30:32.220 indictments,

00:30:33.460 and you

00:30:34.720 failed in

00:30:36.080 that task.

00:30:37.100 What you

00:30:37.540 described was

00:30:39.020 an absolute

00:30:40.020 dereliction of

00:30:41.060 duty, and yet

00:30:42.600 nobody was held

00:30:43.460 to account for

00:30:44.180 it.

00:30:44.860 There's another

00:30:45.580 name that has

00:30:46.500 to be brought

00:30:47.080 up, and that

00:30:47.640 is the name

00:30:48.240 of former

00:30:48.980 President of

00:30:49.500 the United

00:30:49.660 States of

00:30:49.980 America,

00:30:50.520 Barack Obama,

00:30:51.680 and I want

00:30:52.480 to talk about

00:30:53.220 what this

00:30:53.760 report also

00:30:54.620 says about

00:30:55.660 his leadership,

00:30:56.940 but before I

00:30:57.660 get to that,

00:30:58.100 let me tell

00:30:58.460 you about

00:30:58.780 Patriot

00:30:59.180 Mobile.

00:30:59.900 I had the

00:31:00.660 privilege of

00:31:02.000 going and

00:31:02.540 playing in

00:31:03.180 the Folds of

00:31:03.860 the Fallen

00:31:04.480 golf tournament

00:31:05.200 with Patriot

00:31:05.920 Mobile on

00:31:07.280 Monday, and I

00:31:08.220 can tell you

00:31:09.200 that it is

00:31:10.060 really fun to

00:31:11.520 work with a

00:31:12.340 company that

00:31:13.620 takes money

00:31:14.680 every month

00:31:15.540 from your

00:31:16.440 bill, and

00:31:17.500 they give it

00:31:18.000 back to

00:31:18.900 support causes

00:31:20.100 that we stand

00:31:20.840 with.

00:31:22.100 Folds of the

00:31:22.480 Fallen is an

00:31:23.080 incredible

00:31:23.340 organization that

00:31:23.980 gives scholarships

00:31:24.680 to children

00:31:27.020 of men and

00:31:27.980 women who 0.99

00:31:28.420 have given

00:31:28.660 the ultimate

00:31:29.020 sacrifice protecting

00:31:30.180 and defending

00:31:30.560 our country,

00:31:31.440 whether it is

00:31:32.240 here or

00:31:33.020 abroad, and

00:31:34.240 that is what

00:31:35.220 Patriot Mobile

00:31:35.980 does.

00:31:36.600 They take a

00:31:37.100 portion of

00:31:37.600 your bill every

00:31:38.240 month, and

00:31:38.680 they give it

00:31:39.080 back to

00:31:40.040 organizations that

00:31:41.060 stand up for

00:31:41.440 our First and

00:31:42.000 our Second

00:31:42.380 Amendment rights,

00:31:43.560 that stand up

00:31:44.180 for our

00:31:44.460 religious freedom,

00:31:45.580 stand up for

00:31:45.940 the sanctity of

00:31:46.400 life, and

00:31:47.320 they also stand

00:31:48.180 with our

00:31:48.480 military heroes,

00:31:49.680 our veterans,

00:31:50.260 our first

00:31:50.620 responders.

00:31:51.780 This is why

00:31:52.720 I want you to

00:31:53.560 switch to

00:31:54.020 Patriot Mobile.

00:31:55.120 Put your

00:31:56.020 money where

00:31:57.080 your values

00:31:57.820 are.

00:31:58.560 For years,

00:31:59.420 Big Mobile has

00:32:00.980 been dumping

00:32:01.600 millions into

00:32:02.480 leftist causes,

00:32:03.440 and we had to

00:32:04.060 take it because

00:32:04.620 we didn't have

00:32:04.960 another option.

00:32:05.720 Well, now

00:32:06.060 another option

00:32:06.720 exists.

00:32:07.260 Patriot Mobile

00:32:07.820 is America's

00:32:08.500 only Christian

00:32:09.540 conservative

00:32:10.220 wireless provider

00:32:11.640 offering you

00:32:12.360 dependable

00:32:19.380 the woke

00:32:20.080 propaganda

00:32:21.020 pushed by

00:32:21.820 leftists working

00:32:22.620 hard to destroy

00:32:23.240 this country.

00:32:43.060 Senator,

00:32:43.460 let's talk about

00:32:44.380 one player here

00:32:46.040 that really has

00:32:47.060 kind of,

00:32:47.700 I think,

00:32:48.440 he's really

00:32:51.200 gone away

00:32:52.180 kind of

00:32:52.620 unscathed

00:32:53.400 from all

00:32:53.840 of this

00:32:54.300 and that's

00:32:55.520 a guy

00:32:55.820 who knew

00:32:56.240 all about

00:32:57.100 what was

00:32:57.460 happening here.

00:32:58.480 Former

00:32:58.880 President

00:32:59.320 Barack Obama.

00:33:00.940 How guilty

00:33:01.860 is he

00:33:02.420 of allowing

00:33:03.200 all this

00:33:03.620 to start

00:33:03.960 because he's

00:33:04.560 the one

00:33:04.880 that knew

00:33:05.220 they were

00:33:05.540 spying

00:33:06.020 on the

00:33:06.960 Trump campaign.

00:33:07.940 He was

00:33:08.320 the one

00:33:08.640 that was

00:33:08.960 briefed

00:33:09.580 on all

00:33:10.000 of this.

00:33:10.760 He was

00:33:11.260 the one

00:33:11.600 that allowed

00:33:12.120 them to

00:33:12.540 keep moving

00:33:13.180 forward

00:33:13.680 when

00:33:14.340 Donald

00:33:14.700 Trump

00:33:14.980 was

00:33:15.200 running

00:33:15.480 against

00:33:15.860 Hillary 0.96

00:33:16.200 Clinton.

00:33:17.240 So

00:33:17.860 Barack

00:33:18.300 Obama

00:33:18.740 sadly

00:33:19.280 was

00:33:19.600 utterly

00:33:20.060 complicit

00:33:21.540 in this

00:33:22.640 entire

00:33:23.080 scheme

00:33:23.620 to abuse

00:33:24.340 the

00:33:24.520 Department

00:33:24.860 of

00:33:25.080 Justice

00:33:25.400 to

00:33:25.680 abuse

00:33:26.280 the

00:33:26.860 FBI

00:33:27.280 to

00:33:27.620 target

00:33:28.180 his

00:33:29.440 political

00:33:29.880 opponent

00:33:30.320 to

00:33:30.540 target

00:33:30.840 the

00:33:31.040 Republican

00:33:31.460 nominee

00:33:31.880 who

00:33:32.220 was

00:33:32.400 running

00:33:32.820 against

00:33:33.620 Hillary 0.96

00:33:33.920 Clinton

00:33:34.220 to

00:33:34.560 succeed

00:33:35.140 him.

00:33:36.260 Let me

00:33:36.840 tell you

00:33:37.120 what the

00:33:37.560 Durham

00:33:37.860 report

00:33:38.200 concluded.

00:33:38.860 The

00:33:38.940 Durham

00:33:39.200 report

00:33:39.520 concluded

00:33:39.920 that the

00:33:40.260 FBI

00:33:40.600 was

00:33:40.940 tipped

00:33:41.200 off

00:33:41.580 about

00:33:42.400 the

00:33:42.580 Hillary 0.96

00:33:42.860 Clinton's

00:33:43.380 plan

00:33:43.620 to

00:33:43.800 vilify

00:33:44.600 Donald

00:33:44.980 Trump

00:33:45.320 by

00:33:46.140 tying

00:33:46.600 him

00:33:46.820 to

00:33:46.980 Russian

00:33:47.260 President

00:33:47.800 Vladimir

00:33:48.220 Putin.

00:33:49.240 But

00:33:49.880 it

00:33:50.020 didn't

00:33:50.280 investigate

00:33:50.780 that

00:33:51.080 tip.

00:33:52.180 According

00:33:52.860 to the

00:33:53.200 report,

00:33:53.720 the

00:33:53.800 FBI

00:33:54.180 received

00:33:54.780 highly

00:33:56.240 significant

00:33:57.000 intelligence

00:33:57.640 from a

00:33:58.260 trusted

00:33:59.480 foreign

00:33:59.940 source

00:34:00.460 pointing

00:34:01.420 to a

00:34:01.800 Clinton

00:34:02.060 campaign

00:34:02.720 plan

00:34:03.420 to

00:34:03.680 vilify

00:34:04.180 Trump

00:34:04.580 by

00:34:05.480 tying

00:34:05.900 him

00:34:06.100 to

00:34:06.240 Vladimir

00:34:06.560 Putin

00:34:07.040 so as

00:34:07.560 to

00:34:07.720 divert

00:34:08.000 attention

00:34:08.440 from

00:34:08.680 her

00:34:08.840 own

00:34:09.080 concerns

00:34:09.620 relating

00:34:10.500 to

00:34:10.700 her

00:34:10.880 use

00:34:11.200 of

00:34:11.320 a

00:34:11.460 private

00:34:11.760 email

00:34:12.080 server.

00:34:13.380 The

00:34:13.580 report

00:34:13.860 continued

00:34:14.360 quote

00:34:14.760 unlike

00:34:15.780 the

00:34:16.060 FBI's

00:34:16.620 opening

00:34:16.900 of a

00:34:17.120 full

00:34:17.280 investigation

00:34:17.800 of

00:34:18.180 unknown

00:34:18.560 members

00:34:18.900 of the

00:34:19.100 Trump

00:34:19.300 campaign

00:34:19.720 based on

00:34:20.240 raw

00:34:20.620 uncorroborated

00:34:21.480 investigation

00:34:22.240 in this

00:34:23.360 separate

00:34:23.700 matter

00:34:24.000 involving

00:34:25.120 a purported

00:34:25.900 Clinton

00:34:26.180 campaign

00:34:26.660 plan.

00:34:27.800 The

00:34:28.000 FBI

00:34:28.380 never

00:34:28.820 opened

00:34:29.320 any

00:34:30.180 type

00:34:30.480 of

00:34:30.620 inquiry,

00:34:32.220 issued

00:34:32.540 any

00:34:32.820 taskings,

00:34:33.980 employed

00:34:34.360 any

00:34:34.700 analytical

00:34:35.120 personnel,

00:34:35.660 or produced

00:34:36.940 any analytical

00:34:37.660 products in

00:34:38.440 connection

00:34:38.800 with the

00:34:39.140 information.

00:34:39.680 The

00:34:41.000 report

00:34:41.500 said

00:34:42.100 that the

00:34:43.100 lack

00:34:43.360 of

00:34:43.520 action

00:34:43.800 by

00:34:43.980 the

00:34:44.140 FBI

00:34:44.520 was

00:34:44.840 despite

00:34:45.240 the

00:34:45.440 fact

00:34:45.740 that

00:34:46.600 the

00:34:46.800 Clinton

00:34:47.060 plan

00:34:47.560 was

00:34:47.840 so

00:34:48.240 significant

00:34:48.920 that

00:34:50.220 CIA

00:34:50.840 Director

00:34:51.420 John

00:34:51.900 Brennan

00:34:52.340 briefed

00:34:54.220 President

00:34:54.860 Barack

00:34:55.320 Obama,

00:34:56.480 Vice

00:34:57.240 President

00:34:57.740 Joe

00:34:58.140 Biden,

00:34:59.620 Attorney

00:35:00.040 General

00:35:00.540 Loretta

00:35:01.040 Lynch,

00:35:02.400 FBI

00:35:03.260 Director

00:35:03.840 James

00:35:04.240 Comey, 1.00

00:35:04.700 and

00:35:05.660 other

00:35:06.000 senior

00:35:06.400 government

00:35:06.840 officials

00:35:07.380 days

00:35:08.380 after

00:35:08.880 the

00:35:09.100 tip

00:35:09.340 was

00:35:09.560 received.

00:35:11.240 And

00:35:11.880 the

00:35:12.120 report

00:35:12.420 continues,

00:35:13.040 quote,

00:35:14.240 the

00:35:14.420 speed

00:35:14.760 manner

00:35:15.180 in

00:35:15.420 which

00:35:15.620 the

00:35:15.800 FBI

00:35:16.160 opened

00:35:16.580 and

00:35:16.740 investigated

00:35:17.260 crossfire

00:35:17.880 hurricane

00:35:18.240 during

00:35:18.560 the

00:35:18.740 presidential

00:35:19.160 election

00:35:19.600 season

00:35:20.060 based

00:35:20.840 on

00:35:21.080 raw,

00:35:22.180 unanalyzed

00:35:22.860 and uncorroborated

00:35:23.700 intelligence

00:35:24.400 also

00:35:25.560 reflected

00:35:26.460 a

00:35:26.720 noticeable

00:35:27.560 departure

00:35:28.340 from

00:35:29.520 how it

00:35:29.900 handled

00:35:30.160 matters

00:35:30.540 involving

00:35:30.940 Hillary 0.96

00:35:31.240 Clinton.

00:35:32.660 This

00:35:32.860 was

00:35:33.440 corruption

00:35:34.380 that

00:35:35.500 went

00:35:35.740 to

00:35:35.900 the

00:35:36.040 very

00:35:36.260 top

00:35:36.720 and

00:35:37.820 yet

00:35:38.060 John

00:35:38.460 Durham

00:35:38.860 held

00:35:40.300 nobody

00:35:40.680 accountable.

00:35:43.060 No one.

00:35:44.260 And that's

00:35:44.700 the part

00:35:45.100 here

00:35:45.440 that I

00:35:46.120 think

00:35:46.340 people

00:35:46.620 say

00:35:46.940 is

00:35:47.180 did

00:35:47.460 he

00:35:47.680 not

00:35:48.000 have

00:35:48.320 the

00:35:48.480 power

00:35:48.880 and

00:35:49.160 there's

00:35:49.440 been

00:35:49.640 debate

00:35:49.980 on

00:35:50.180 this

00:35:50.400 there's

00:35:50.640 some

00:35:50.820 saying

00:35:51.240 he

00:35:51.980 really

00:35:52.200 didn't

00:35:52.460 have

00:35:52.640 the

00:35:52.800 power

00:35:53.060 to

00:35:53.280 do

00:35:53.460 anything

00:35:53.840 there's

00:35:54.600 others

00:35:54.800 saying

00:35:55.160 that's

00:35:55.500 BS

00:35:56.000 yes

00:35:56.720 he

00:35:56.940 had

00:35:57.160 the

00:35:57.320 power

00:35:57.580 to

00:35:57.780 do

00:35:57.960 something

00:35:58.440 Senator

00:35:59.260 give

00:35:59.940 me

00:36:00.100 your

00:36:00.460 reaction

00:36:01.660 to

00:36:01.980 that

00:36:02.240 idea

00:36:02.620 did

00:36:03.180 what

00:36:03.640 were his

00:36:04.180 hands

00:36:04.600 tied

00:36:05.120 in your

00:36:06.080 opinion

00:36:06.540 is there

00:36:07.420 two sides

00:36:08.180 to the

00:36:08.480 story

00:36:08.680 that maybe

00:36:09.060 hey

00:36:09.300 all they

00:36:09.760 would allow

00:36:10.160 him to

00:36:10.400 do

00:36:10.560 is write

00:36:11.040 what is

00:36:11.520 in essence

00:36:12.140 a

00:36:12.720 fact

00:36:14.100 finding

00:36:14.480 op-ed

00:36:14.980 of okay

00:36:15.420 here's

00:36:15.720 what I

00:36:15.940 found

00:36:16.280 and this

00:36:16.640 is what

00:36:16.900 we've

00:36:17.100 got

00:36:17.380 but no

00:36:17.840 one's

00:36:18.100 going to

00:36:18.260 get in

00:36:18.480 trouble

00:36:18.660 for

00:36:18.920 anything

00:36:19.320 what

00:36:20.000 what

00:36:20.020 utter

00:36:20.320 nonsense 0.82

00:36:20.960 he 0.60

00:36:21.600 was

00:36:21.780 a

00:36:21.920 special

00:36:22.220 prosecutor

00:36:22.900 he

00:36:23.140 could

00:36:23.380 indict

00:36:23.780 anybody

00:36:24.520 he

00:36:25.020 could

00:36:25.200 indict

00:36:25.460 you

00:36:25.720 Ben

00:36:25.980 Ferguson

00:36:26.420 tonight

00:36:27.700 now

00:36:28.780 presumably

00:36:29.600 there's

00:36:30.100 no evidence

00:36:30.840 or at least

00:36:31.280 not much

00:36:31.920 that you've

00:36:32.820 committed a

00:36:33.260 felony

00:36:33.560 recently

00:36:34.480 sure I

00:36:35.060 have

00:36:35.200 I'm a

00:36:35.480 conservative

00:36:35.940 that speaks

00:36:36.460 out

00:36:36.700 isn't that

00:36:36.960 enough

00:36:37.180 now I

00:36:37.580 thought

00:36:37.780 that's

00:36:38.060 the

00:36:38.180 bar

00:36:38.460 you know

00:36:39.300 it may

00:36:39.580 well

00:36:39.840 be

00:36:40.040 but

00:36:40.660 look

00:36:41.180 he was

00:36:41.660 a

00:36:41.820 special

00:36:42.120 prosecutor

00:36:42.760 had the

00:36:43.200 ability

00:36:43.580 to convene

00:36:44.160 a grand

00:36:44.520 jury

00:36:44.740 and bring

00:36:45.120 charges

00:36:45.540 against

00:36:45.900 anyone

00:36:46.360 who

00:36:46.580 committed

00:36:46.880 illegal

00:36:47.260 conduct

00:36:49.320 there

00:36:51.180 are

00:36:51.380 some

00:36:51.700 that

00:36:51.920 are

00:36:52.240 debating

00:36:52.660 well

00:36:53.240 it

00:36:54.120 wasn't

00:36:54.580 his

00:36:54.820 job

00:36:55.400 to

00:36:55.640 recommend

00:36:56.140 reforms

00:36:56.940 to the

00:36:57.540 Department

00:36:57.900 of Justice

00:36:58.420 procedures

00:36:59.080 or the

00:36:59.700 FBI

00:37:00.060 procedures

00:37:00.700 and on

00:37:02.280 some

00:37:02.640 level

00:37:02.940 that's

00:37:03.340 true

00:37:03.600 and on

00:37:03.940 some

00:37:04.200 level

00:37:04.500 who

00:37:04.700 cares

00:37:05.100 if

00:37:06.140 he

00:37:06.320 wanted

00:37:06.680 to

00:37:06.920 recommend

00:37:07.280 reforms

00:37:07.860 he

00:37:08.040 could

00:37:08.240 have

00:37:08.360 he

00:37:08.480 could

00:37:08.640 have

00:37:08.740 written

00:37:08.920 that

00:37:09.100 in

00:37:09.180 the

00:37:09.240 report

00:37:09.580 and said

00:37:09.940 you

00:37:10.080 know

00:37:10.220 what

00:37:10.500 the

00:37:11.240 current

00:37:11.520 rules

00:37:11.860 don't

00:37:12.140 work

00:37:12.400 change

00:37:12.760 them

00:37:12.940 that

00:37:13.120 would

00:37:13.260 have

00:37:13.320 been

00:37:13.440 something

00:37:13.880 but

00:37:15.120 instead

00:37:15.480 he

00:37:15.720 went

00:37:15.920 out

00:37:16.060 of

00:37:16.140 his

00:37:19.320 it's

00:37:19.480 just

00:37:19.720 here

00:37:20.000 the 1.00

00:37:20.160 bastards 1.00

00:37:20.540 didn't 1.00

00:37:20.900 follow

00:37:21.200 them

00:37:21.480 and

00:37:21.640 by

00:37:21.880 the

00:37:22.020 way

00:37:22.300 I'm

00:37:23.680 not

00:37:23.880 going

00:37:23.980 to

00:37:24.080 prosecute

00:37:24.660 or

00:37:24.800 indict

00:37:25.080 any

00:37:25.340 of

00:37:25.480 them

00:37:25.760 for

00:37:26.520 not

00:37:26.760 following

00:37:27.160 them

00:37:27.420 we

00:37:27.600 just

00:37:27.900 are

00:37:28.060 going

00:37:28.160 to

00:37:28.280 say

00:37:28.620 in

00:37:29.500 the

00:37:29.720 future

00:37:30.140 it

00:37:30.500 would

00:37:30.700 be

00:37:30.900 nice

00:37:31.440 if

00:37:31.880 people

00:37:32.180 followed

00:37:32.580 the

00:37:32.780 rules

00:37:33.080 now

00:37:33.340 that's

00:37:33.740 true

00:37:34.220 but

00:37:35.520 the

00:37:35.760 job

00:37:36.280 of

00:37:36.440 a

00:37:36.600 special

00:37:36.960 prosecutor

00:44:33.060 plain

00:44:33.300 sight

00:44:33.680 well

00:44:35.220 apparently

00:44:36.500 there

00:44:36.720 wasn't

00:44:37.540 no

00:44:37.800 there

00:44:38.140 was

00:44:38.360 no

00:44:38.960 evidence

00:44:39.420 it was

00:44:40.240 made

00:44:40.460 up

00:44:40.700 it was

00:44:41.380 made

00:44:41.580 up

00:44:41.780 by the

00:44:42.060 opa

00:44:42.340 researchers

00:44:42.860 of

00:44:43.260 hillary 0.96

00:44:43.540 clinton

00:44:43.860 but adam

00:44:44.820 schiff

00:44:45.080 was happy

00:44:45.420 to get

00:44:45.660 on tv

00:44:46.020 and scream 1.00

00:44:46.400 about it

00:44:46.700 here's

00:44:46.900 what chuck

00:44:47.300 schumer

00:44:47.580 said

00:44:47.860 in

00:44:47.980 2018

00:44:48.420 quote

00:44:48.900 a single

00:44:50.880 ominous

00:44:51.580 question

00:44:52.080 now hangs

00:44:52.840 over the

00:44:53.240 white house

00:44:53.760 what could

00:44:55.220 possibly cause

00:44:56.340 president trump

00:44:57.180 to put the

00:44:57.680 interests of

00:44:58.240 russia

00:44:58.620 over those

00:44:59.740 of the

00:45:00.020 united

00:45:00.320 states

00:45:00.900 quote

00:45:02.180 millions

00:45:03.200 of americans

00:45:04.140 will continue

00:45:04.860 to wonder

00:45:05.380 if the

00:45:05.860 only possible

00:45:06.960 explanation

00:45:07.680 for this

00:45:08.540 dangerous

00:45:09.140 behavior

00:45:09.620 is the

00:45:10.820 possibility

00:45:11.380 that president

00:45:12.160 putin

00:45:12.720 holds damaging

00:45:13.980 information

00:45:14.700 over president

00:45:15.580 trump

00:45:16.280 look i gotta

00:45:18.040 admit this

00:45:18.640 pisses me

00:45:19.380 off 0.98

00:45:19.760 democrats

00:45:21.100 were lying

00:45:21.720 the doj

00:45:23.380 launched an

00:45:24.560 investigation

00:45:25.080 with no

00:45:25.780 evidence

00:45:26.280 based on

00:45:27.300 partisan

00:45:27.840 hatred

00:45:28.380 and the

00:45:29.760 corporate

00:45:30.220 media

00:45:30.760 amplified

00:45:31.580 those lies

00:45:32.660 shamelessly

00:45:34.260 it is an

00:45:36.200 utter and

00:45:36.740 complete failure

00:45:37.560 of our

00:45:37.940 system and

00:45:38.660 nobody's been

00:45:39.540 been held to

00:45:40.120 account nobody's

00:45:41.280 prosecuted nobody's

00:45:42.400 fired nobody's

00:45:43.240 lost their job

00:45:44.180 and they

00:45:44.820 continue to

00:45:45.900 do the

00:45:46.500 same going

00:45:47.540 forward

00:45:48.020 this is i

00:45:49.640 have a feeling

00:45:50.220 why it's going

00:45:50.720 to end up

00:45:51.140 being a big

00:45:52.000 election year

00:45:52.840 issue not just

00:45:53.660 on the

00:45:53.880 presidential

00:45:54.200 level but

00:45:55.320 also in

00:45:56.840 senate and

00:45:57.380 house races

00:45:58.100 and it

00:45:58.560 should be

00:45:59.080 because this

00:45:59.700 is going to

00:46:00.160 be about

00:46:00.680 accountability

00:46:01.320 for the

00:46:01.840 people that

00:46:02.360 did this
