00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.
00:00:02.560 Guaranteed human.
00:00:05.200 Welcome.
00:00:06.080 Verdict to Senator Ted Cruz.
00:00:07.640 Ben Ferguson with you.
00:00:08.900 Senator, the babysitting interview took place
00:00:11.900 and it started with CNN lying
00:00:13.680 by having the word live up on the screen
00:00:16.440 while the interview was taped.
00:00:18.140 You can't make that up, can you?
00:00:20.160 Well, you can't, but to call it an interview
00:00:22.680 is actually false advertising.
00:00:25.320 This was a Harris presidential campaign ad.
00:00:31.900 They hired a situation actor named Dana Bash
00:00:36.440 to read the Kamala Harris talking points to her
00:00:40.360 and then she repeated them back at her.
00:00:43.120 I have to say, this interview,
00:00:45.520 and we're going to break it down,
00:00:46.280 we're going to break it down systematically,
00:00:48.260 but this interview was embarrassing.
00:00:50.020 Like everybody at CNN,
00:00:52.860 whoever thought they were a journalist,
00:00:55.000 every producer, every reporter,
00:00:57.480 every host ought to be collectively embarrassed
00:01:00.100 because this was not news.
00:01:01.740 Can you imagine if Tim Russert
00:01:04.880 had done this interview?
00:01:05.960 How massively, totally different it was.
00:01:09.220 This was Dana Bash.
00:01:10.500 The interview would not have been different
00:01:13.080 if Kamala Harris had seated her own press secretary 0.99
00:01:17.680 to ask her the questions.
00:01:19.900 The same questions would have been asked.
00:01:21.760 It was, it was, it was, it was embarrassing,
00:01:26.700 but it was, it was pure propaganda.
00:01:29.080 It was, it actually is what RFK Jr. said
00:01:34.040 when he endorsed Trump.
00:01:35.440 The press is the, is the media organ
00:01:38.620 of the Democrat campaign.
00:01:40.380 CNN were not journalists tonight.
00:01:42.780 They were part of the Kamala Harris campaign
00:01:45.000 and anyone watching it, it was embarrassing.
00:01:47.860 Yeah, it really was.
00:01:49.500 I want to tell you quickly about our friends
00:01:51.600 at the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
00:01:54.460 And I say this because many of you
00:01:57.180 are just incredible patriots
00:01:59.160 and you are standing with the people in Israel.
00:02:01.680 We're quickly approaching the one year anniversary
00:02:04.340 of the horrific Hamas attack on Israel.
00:02:06.920 And still the Holy Land continues to be attacked
00:02:10.360 on multiple fronts.
00:02:11.960 Deadly threats are increasing in Northern Israel.
00:02:14.340 They're still dealing with constant rocket attacks
00:02:17.440 from Hezbollah that have been fired at Israel
00:02:19.600 causing widespread damage
00:02:21.300 with raging wildfires destroying precious farmland.
00:02:25.820 Since the war started,
00:02:27.460 the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
00:02:29.520 has been on the front lines in Israel
00:02:31.380 addressing the needs of the most vulnerable people there.
00:02:35.500 That's why I have partnered with IFCJ
00:02:37.940 and many of you have already given
00:02:40.240 life-saving donations
00:02:42.620 that are helping provide emergency food
00:02:45.180 as well as critical security needs
00:02:47.640 such as flat jackets,
00:02:49.360 firefighting equipment,
00:02:51.240 armored vehicles that include armored ambulances
00:02:54.280 that have already gone into hot areas
00:02:57.400 and saved people's lives.
00:02:59.680 It is amazing to see the donations
00:03:02.140 and how they're being used.
00:03:03.900 They've also put in bomb shelters
00:03:05.840 and much more.
00:03:07.400 Now we're asking for 500 of you
00:03:09.700 to join the fellowship and me
00:03:12.340 by donating $150
00:03:14.020 to help meet the urgent security needs
00:03:17.960 of the Jewish people.
00:03:19.420 Now thanks to a generous IFCJ donor,
00:03:22.760 your gift will be matched,
00:03:24.920 meaning it's going to double your impact
00:03:27.160 in the Holy Land.
00:03:28.340 Now to make your gift right now
00:03:29.920 and to help the people in Israel
00:03:31.660 and to say I stand with the people in Israel,
00:03:34.380 call 888-488-IFCJ.
00:03:39.400 That's 888-488-IFCJ
00:03:43.400 or 4325
00:03:44.540 or go online
00:03:46.220 and you can donate securely there
00:03:47.900 at supportifcj.org to give.
00:03:51.360 That's one word,
00:03:52.720 supportifcj.org.
00:03:55.120 Israel needs your support now
00:03:57.260 more than ever.
00:03:58.560 Senator, let's go back
00:03:59.840 to the very beginning.
00:04:01.860 CNN was promoting 0.96
00:04:03.260 the crap out of this interview 0.90
00:04:05.200 wall-to-wall 0.95
00:04:06.880 all day long
00:04:08.100 with, you know,
00:04:09.180 just everything
00:04:10.040 was about this big day
00:04:11.760 and that
00:04:12.920 right there
00:04:13.980 I think tells you
00:04:14.960 just how messed up
00:04:15.920 this race is
00:04:17.020 and how messed up
00:04:17.900 the media is.
00:04:19.220 It should not be
00:04:20.640 a must-see TV moment
00:04:22.500 for the person
00:04:23.880 who's running
00:04:24.420 for President
00:04:25.060 of the United States of America 1.00
00:04:26.300 to do a damn interview. 1.00
00:04:28.940 Yeah, look, 1.00
00:04:29.460 I mean,
00:04:29.620 it's been over a month
00:04:30.460 since she was
00:04:30.880 the presumptive nominee.
00:04:32.160 Kamala Harris
00:04:32.680 has done zero interviews
00:04:34.120 prior to this one.
00:04:35.120 None whatsoever.
00:04:37.560 Then this one,
00:04:38.860 her campaign reached out
00:04:41.280 and presumably asked
00:04:42.300 every network
00:04:43.680 who will do
00:04:44.640 the softest interview?
00:04:45.720 Who will give us
00:04:46.260 the most softballs? 0.81
00:04:47.840 Who will not push us?
00:04:49.100 Who will make sure
00:04:50.220 Kamala is protected?
00:04:51.740 And you know what?
00:04:52.820 Winner, winner,
00:04:53.320 chicken dinner,
00:04:53.960 CNN stepped up
00:04:54.860 and said,
00:04:55.220 we have no journalistic
00:04:56.140 integrity whatsoever.
00:04:57.080 We are happy to be
00:04:58.460 part of the Kamala Harris campaign.
00:05:00.500 So Dana Bash won. 0.97
00:05:02.680 You look at this interview,
00:05:06.120 the opening question,
00:05:09.520 you know,
00:05:09.880 the nation is so excited
00:05:11.560 to hear what you're going
00:05:12.600 to do as president.
00:05:14.420 Breathlessly.
00:05:15.440 Oh, it's like a group.
00:05:16.820 Oh, we're so excited.
00:05:17.800 Oh, we're so excited.
00:05:18.700 What are you going to do
00:05:19.340 as president?
00:05:19.900 Please tell us.
00:05:20.760 What are you going to do
00:05:21.880 on day one?
00:05:23.700 Now, let me start by saying
00:05:25.680 this is not
00:05:26.620 a difficult question
00:05:29.080 for most candidates
00:05:30.120 for office.
00:05:31.040 This is not a surprise question.
00:05:33.280 This is not an unexpected question. 0.84
00:05:35.420 What the hell
00:05:35.980 are you going to do 0.93
00:05:36.540 in office
00:05:36.940 is pretty simple
00:05:38.020 and basic.
00:05:39.880 Kamala's answer,
00:05:41.560 I'm going to strengthen
00:05:42.820 the middle class.
00:05:45.040 What?
00:05:46.040 Like what?
00:05:47.260 Like she gave this
00:05:48.480 this word salad answer
00:05:50.840 about fortify
00:05:53.040 the middle class
00:05:54.040 that is not actually
00:05:55.480 anything the president
00:05:56.780 does on day one
00:05:57.940 or any day thereafter.
00:05:59.680 Like it actually
00:06:00.820 meant anything,
00:06:01.720 meant nothing.
00:06:02.600 And so,
00:06:03.060 so,
00:06:04.040 Dana Bash didn't point out,
00:06:05.560 yeah,
00:06:05.720 you didn't answer
00:06:06.180 my question at all,
00:06:06.860 but she did at least
00:06:07.600 repeat the question
00:06:08.480 for a moment
00:06:09.280 that there was a tiny bit
00:06:11.200 of being a question.
00:06:11.980 She said,
00:06:12.300 okay,
00:06:12.520 so what are you going
00:06:13.500 to do on day one?
00:06:15.060 And again,
00:06:16.780 Kamala has no answer.
00:06:18.360 And let me give,
00:06:19.460 look,
00:06:20.260 the fundamental disconnect
00:06:21.860 in this fake interview
00:06:24.480 was the same
00:06:26.300 as the fundamental disconnect
00:06:27.440 in Kamala's convention speech,
00:06:29.160 which is the entire
00:06:30.760 Kamala Harris campaign
00:06:32.180 is pretending
00:06:32.960 she's the candidate 0.99
00:06:33.820 of change
00:06:34.700 and is ignoring
00:06:36.760 it,
00:06:37.120 it is utterly divorced
00:06:38.580 from reality
00:06:39.360 that she's the sitting
00:06:40.460 vice president,
00:06:41.220 that Joe Biden
00:06:41.820 is the sitting president
00:06:42.640 today,
00:06:43.180 right now.
00:06:44.100 So,
00:06:44.320 by the way,
00:06:45.440 the question,
00:06:46.220 what are you going
00:06:46.600 to do on day one
00:06:47.540 is a weird question
00:06:48.360 for any VP running
00:06:49.360 to succeed a president
00:06:50.260 because the way
00:06:51.360 VPs running
00:06:52.040 to succeed presidents run
00:06:53.400 is they say,
00:06:55.160 hey,
00:06:55.760 we've had a great record,
00:06:57.480 here's what we've done
00:06:58.260 in office,
00:06:58.720 we're going to continue
00:06:59.360 these policies,
00:07:00.140 we're going to grow
00:07:00.580 these policies,
00:07:01.480 but we're running
00:07:02.980 on our success.
00:07:04.000 Kamala,
00:07:05.180 she's claiming
00:07:06.120 that she is going
00:07:07.320 to turn the page,
00:07:08.320 she's going to change,
00:07:09.560 there's an exchange
00:07:10.620 later in the interview
00:07:11.500 where she says,
00:07:12.100 we're going to put
00:07:12.720 the past decade
00:07:13.620 behind us.
00:07:14.860 The past decade,
00:07:16.400 she and Joe Biden
00:07:17.140 have been president
00:07:18.040 and vice president
00:07:18.640 for four years,
00:07:19.340 and by the way,
00:07:20.820 before Trump,
00:07:21.840 Obama was president
00:07:22.820 for eight years.
00:07:24.280 Like,
00:07:24.840 it is,
00:07:25.600 we're going to put
00:07:26.660 this horrible decade
00:07:27.820 behind us,
00:07:28.900 all but four years
00:07:30.180 of which the Democrats
00:07:31.640 have been in charge
00:07:32.320 of the White House.
00:07:33.880 There was a moment
00:07:35.160 in this conversation
00:07:36.900 as I was watching it
00:07:38.420 tonight,
00:07:38.960 and I was sitting there,
00:07:40.780 and Joe Concha
00:07:41.560 over at Fox came on,
00:07:42.760 he had a great way
00:07:43.760 of putting it
00:07:44.220 after he was fact-checking
00:07:45.360 Harris on her fracking,
00:07:46.860 for example,
00:07:47.460 flip-flop,
00:07:48.440 and he said,
00:07:48.860 Harris is a human
00:07:49.860 Chernobyl
00:07:50.580 when you take out
00:07:51.900 the teleprompter,
00:07:53.220 and that really
00:07:54.380 is what it was.
00:07:55.240 It was a train wreck,
00:07:56.920 but at the same time,
00:07:58.100 Senator,
00:07:58.720 train wrecks don't mean
00:07:59.940 what they used to mean.
00:08:01.500 Like,
00:08:01.820 the only way
00:08:02.680 that there is
00:08:03.240 accountability
00:08:03.740 for doing a bad interview
00:08:05.220 or having a bad moment
00:08:07.180 is if it's as bad
00:08:08.940 as Joe Biden
00:08:09.840 in the first debate.
00:08:11.520 I think Democrats
00:08:12.820 probably look at this
00:08:13.500 and they're like,
00:08:13.860 ah,
00:08:14.160 it wasn't that bad.
00:08:15.840 No,
00:08:16.240 Democrats are happy.
00:08:17.320 Democrats are very happy,
00:08:18.680 and I actually don't think
00:08:20.000 it was a train wreck
00:08:20.900 for Kamala Harris.
00:08:22.280 I think it was a train wreck
00:08:23.140 for CNN.
00:08:24.180 This was not an interview.
00:08:26.240 This is a campaign commercial,
00:08:28.340 and you know what?
00:08:29.080 They did fine
00:08:30.060 for a campaign commercial,
00:08:31.800 so on questions,
00:08:33.240 Kamala would say something
00:08:34.340 like strengthen
00:08:35.040 the middle class.
00:08:36.000 I'm just gonna,
00:08:36.920 I'm gonna lift people up,
00:08:38.180 not push people down.
00:08:39.840 I'm gonna go forward,
00:08:40.880 not backwards.
00:08:42.000 I'm gonna hope he changed,
00:08:43.460 not,
00:08:43.880 not,
00:08:44.200 not saddy hurt.
00:08:46.720 Like,
00:08:47.420 there was a bunch
00:08:48.260 of vapid,
00:08:49.240 empty statements,
00:08:51.440 and it would be
00:08:55.220 a train wreck
00:08:56.020 if there had been
00:08:57.440 a journalist in the room,
00:08:58.860 because a journalist
00:09:00.460 in the room
00:09:01.200 would point out
00:09:02.140 the actual record.
00:09:03.820 So,
00:09:04.960 she flip-flops
00:09:05.720 on fracking,
00:09:07.240 and,
00:09:08.020 and,
00:09:09.020 you know,
00:09:09.480 Dana bashed so gently, 0.77
00:09:11.080 well,
00:09:11.320 you said you would
00:09:12.360 cancel fracking.
00:09:13.540 Well,
00:09:13.780 no,
00:09:13.940 no,
00:09:13.960 no,
00:09:14.060 I changed my mind
00:09:14.940 in 2020.
00:09:15.740 Why?
00:09:16.340 Well,
00:09:16.520 I did.
00:09:17.300 Why?
00:09:17.820 Well,
00:09:18.000 why I did?
00:09:20.660 Why?
00:09:21.400 So,
00:09:21.620 there was no question
00:09:22.860 about Biden
00:09:25.560 and Harris's record.
00:09:26.720 So,
00:09:26.900 for example,
00:09:27.280 the fracking thing.
00:09:28.360 All right,
00:09:28.620 you want to ask
00:09:29.040 about energy?
00:09:30.180 Okay,
00:09:30.580 Dana,
00:09:30.880 here's a rocket,
00:09:32.240 rocket scientist idea.
00:09:35.420 Ask about the disastrous
00:09:36.840 record of Joe Biden
00:09:38.140 and Kamala Harris
00:09:38.820 on energy.
00:09:39.940 Kamala,
00:09:40.280 why on the first day
00:09:41.060 in office
00:09:41.560 did,
00:09:41.900 did,
00:09:42.180 did Joe Biden
00:09:43.640 and your administration
00:09:44.540 cancel the Keystone Pipeline?
00:09:46.420 Kamala,
00:09:46.820 why,
00:09:47.260 why did Joe Biden
00:09:50.000 and your administration
00:09:51.480 shut down oil
00:09:52.280 and gas leasing
00:09:53.080 on federal lands?
00:09:54.780 Why did your administration
00:09:55.900 shut down offshore drilling?
00:09:58.360 Kamala,
00:09:58.740 why did your administration
00:10:00.400 ban new permits,
00:10:02.700 new export permits
00:10:03.580 for liquid natural gas?
00:10:05.840 Why do you not want America
00:10:07.580 to produce oil and gas?
00:10:08.920 Why have you implemented
00:10:10.180 over 90 different
00:10:11.640 executive orders,
00:10:12.940 regulations,
00:10:13.680 designed to destroy jobs
00:10:15.860 in oil and gas?
00:10:16.620 That would be an actual reporter.
00:10:18.160 By the way,
00:10:18.520 Tim Russert
00:10:19.080 would have played the clips
00:10:20.860 one after the other.
00:10:21.680 Well,
00:10:21.760 here's you doing this,
00:10:22.500 here's you doing this,
00:10:23.260 here's you doing this.
00:10:24.180 And she'd say,
00:10:24.720 well,
00:10:24.820 no,
00:10:24.920 no,
00:10:25.240 we're going to,
00:10:27.300 we're going to just,
00:10:28.700 you know,
00:10:29.880 help the middle class. 0.90
00:10:31.080 Well,
00:10:31.180 what about all the middle class
00:10:32.040 jobs you destroyed?
00:10:33.340 That's actually an interview,
00:10:35.080 an interview that is based
00:10:36.160 on facts.
00:10:38.000 None of those words
00:10:39.520 came out of
00:10:41.100 Dan Abash's mouth.
00:10:43.160 The new word for flip-flopping
00:10:44.680 is clarify.
00:10:46.240 And you mentioned this,
00:10:47.460 so let's play part of it.
00:10:49.020 Again,
00:10:49.700 CNN lying to you on screen,
00:10:51.180 saying this is live,
00:10:52.040 it's nighttime,
00:10:52.580 but if you look at the setting
00:10:54.280 where they were doing the interview,
00:10:55.200 it's daytime outside.
00:10:56.520 So CNN exclusive,
00:10:58.800 let's lie to the American people 0.99
00:11:00.080 just on the premise
00:11:01.040 of the interview.
00:11:01.880 But then this was the question.
00:11:03.680 I want to get some clarity
00:11:04.560 on where you stand
00:11:05.800 on some key policy issues.
00:11:09.360 Energy is a big one.
00:11:11.460 When you were in Congress,
00:11:12.740 you supported the Green New Deal.
00:11:15.040 And in 2019,
00:11:16.320 you said,
00:11:16.760 quote,
00:11:17.080 there is no question
00:11:18.180 I'm in favor of banning fracking.
00:11:20.280 Fracking, as you know,
00:11:21.500 is a pretty big issue,
00:11:22.840 particularly in your
00:11:23.860 must-win state of Pennsylvania.
00:11:26.080 Do you still want
00:11:26.980 to ban fracking?
00:11:28.440 No,
00:11:28.980 and I made that clear
00:11:30.140 on the debate stage in 2020,
00:11:32.220 that I would not ban fracking.
00:11:34.540 As vice president,
00:11:35.620 I did not ban fracking.
00:11:37.100 As president,
00:11:37.760 I will not ban fracking.
00:11:39.640 In 2019,
00:11:40.780 I believe,
00:11:41.660 at a town hall,
00:11:42.740 you said,
00:11:43.300 you were asked,
00:11:44.240 would you commit
00:11:44.780 to implementing
00:11:45.420 a federal ban on fracking
00:11:46.720 on your first day in office?
00:11:47.880 And you said,
00:11:48.300 there's no question
00:11:48.880 I'm in favor of banning fracking.
00:11:50.280 So, yes.
00:11:51.480 So,
00:11:51.920 it changed in that campaign?
00:11:54.720 In 2020,
00:11:55.660 I made very clear
00:11:56.420 where I stand.
00:11:57.200 We are in 2024,
00:11:58.380 and I've not changed
00:11:59.060 that position,
00:11:59.660 nor will I going forward.
00:12:01.040 I kept my word,
00:12:01.880 and I will keep my word.
00:12:03.380 What made you change
00:12:04.560 that position at the time?
00:12:06.420 Well,
00:12:07.220 let's be clear.
00:12:08.380 My values have not changed.
00:12:10.480 I believe it is very important
00:12:12.200 that we take seriously
00:12:13.620 what we must do
00:12:14.940 to guard against
00:12:17.560 what is a clear crisis
00:12:19.240 in terms of the climate.
00:12:21.220 And to do that,
00:12:22.820 we can do
00:12:23.700 what we have accomplished
00:12:24.800 thus far,
00:12:25.540 the Inflation Reduction Act,
00:12:26.980 what we have done
00:12:27.660 to invest,
00:12:28.200 by my calculation,
00:12:29.780 over probably a trillion dollars
00:12:31.700 over the next 10 years,
00:12:33.040 investing in a clean energy economy,
00:12:35.220 what we've already done,
00:12:36.540 creating over 300,000 new
00:12:38.840 clean energy jobs.
00:12:40.520 By the way,
00:12:41.020 I just have to stop there,
00:12:42.080 Senator,
00:12:42.440 and go back.
00:12:43.340 How much money did they get
00:12:44.620 from the American people
00:12:45.700 to build a bunch of
00:12:46.880 charging stations
00:12:47.760 they were going to build
00:12:48.300 all over the country,
00:12:49.020 and we built,
00:12:49.460 I think it's three of them.
00:12:49.740 And they built virtually
00:12:50.600 none of them.
00:12:51.300 Yeah,
00:12:51.560 like two or three,
00:12:52.380 I think is what we've done so far.
00:12:53.980 And she sits there,
00:12:55.080 and she's just flat out lying
00:12:56.240 to the American people.
00:12:57.420 She absolutely has said.
00:12:58.060 And by the way,
00:12:58.780 why didn't Dana Bash 1.00
00:12:59.760 point that out?
00:13:00.920 Why didn't Dana Bash 1.00
00:13:01.880 point that out?
00:13:03.020 And look,
00:13:03.640 so Dana focuses on
00:13:05.900 one quote from 2019.
00:13:07.680 What about the rest
00:13:08.360 of her record?
00:13:09.940 This is the incumbent
00:13:11.300 administration right now.
00:13:13.160 And by the way,
00:13:13.820 on this front,
00:13:15.940 well,
00:13:16.240 hold on.
00:13:17.080 I want you to keep playing
00:13:18.620 that clip you were playing
00:13:19.840 because then Dana tries 1.00
00:13:21.380 to coax her in an answer,
00:13:23.520 and it really is pitiful.
00:13:25.040 It is as if they brought in 0.99
00:13:26.560 Corrine Jean-Pierre
00:13:27.340 to do the interview.
00:13:28.420 Play the rest of what Dana says.
00:13:30.760 That tells me,
00:13:32.540 from my experience
00:13:33.560 as vice president,
00:13:34.280 we can do it
00:13:34.760 without banning fracking.
00:13:35.880 In fact,
00:13:36.440 Dana,
00:13:36.900 Dana,
00:13:37.380 excuse me,
00:13:37.840 I cast the tie-breaking vote
00:13:40.840 that actually increased
00:13:43.340 leases for fracking
00:13:44.280 as vice president.
00:13:45.840 So I'm very clear
00:13:46.680 about where I stand.
00:13:47.640 And was there some
00:13:48.340 policy
00:13:49.560 or scientific data
00:13:51.540 that you saw
00:13:52.140 that you said,
00:13:52.680 oh, okay,
00:13:53.040 I get it now?
00:13:54.520 What I have seen
00:13:55.640 is that we can
00:13:56.760 grow
00:13:58.480 and we can increase
00:13:59.700 a thriving
00:14:00.640 clean energy economy
00:14:01.840 without banning fracking.
00:14:02.980 Okay.
00:14:03.760 Okay.
00:14:04.160 There we go.
00:14:04.940 Like, okay.
00:14:05.520 Sounds great.
00:14:06.340 Thank you.
00:14:06.780 I'm glad we summed that up.
00:14:07.880 It's embarrassing,
00:14:08.900 by the way,
00:14:09.480 for Dana Bash.
00:14:10.380 I'm sorry.
00:14:10.860 It just is.
00:14:11.360 It's embarrassing.
00:14:13.260 She goes on to say,
00:14:15.140 she goes on to say,
00:14:16.060 how should voters look
00:14:17.580 at some of the changes
00:14:18.400 you've made?
00:14:19.020 Is it because
00:14:19.600 you have more experience now
00:14:21.660 and you've learned
00:14:23.180 more about the information?
00:14:24.460 Is it because you were
00:14:25.240 running for president
00:14:25.980 in a Democratic primary?
00:14:27.420 And should they feel
00:14:28.260 comfortable
00:14:28.980 and confident
00:14:30.000 that what you're saying now
00:14:32.000 is going to be
00:14:32.760 your policy moving forward,
00:14:34.520 Madam President?
00:14:35.120 I'm so excited
00:14:36.260 to see you as president
00:14:37.580 and I'm going to be
00:14:38.180 cheering and crying
00:14:39.140 the moment you're elected.
00:14:40.280 Oh, my God,
00:14:40.800 I'm so excited.
00:14:41.860 Yay, Kamala.
00:14:43.120 Oh, wait,
00:14:43.480 I'm a journalist. 1.00
00:14:44.140 Crap. 1.00
00:14:45.040 And let's go back 1.00
00:14:46.220 to what she said
00:14:47.500 when she said,
00:14:48.540 and I'm sorry, 0.99
00:14:49.160 she's a liar. 0.97
00:14:50.420 My values have not changed. 0.88
00:14:52.440 Let's remind people
00:14:53.660 of Kamala Harris's values then.
00:14:56.080 This is a montage
00:14:57.160 of her values.
00:14:58.820 My values have not changed.
00:15:00.680 Produce red meat specifically.
00:15:02.000 Yes.
00:15:02.380 The Boston Marathon bomber.
00:15:03.420 They should be able to vote.
00:15:04.420 I think we should have
00:15:05.020 that conversation.
00:15:05.880 Abolish ICE.
00:15:06.800 Yes.
00:15:07.060 Would you ban offshore drilling?
00:15:08.340 Yes.
00:15:08.700 I'm in favor of banning fracking.
00:15:10.040 I am prepared
00:15:10.900 to pass a greener deal.
00:15:12.100 I support a mandatory 0.94
00:15:13.060 buyback program.
00:15:14.080 We're not going to treat people
00:15:15.060 who are undocumented
00:15:16.340 across the border as criminals.
00:15:17.560 The idea that more police
00:15:19.320 equals more safety,
00:15:20.540 that's just wrong.
00:15:21.720 Policing, as we know,
00:15:22.700 goes all the way back
00:15:23.480 to slave patrols
00:15:24.640 and that idea.
00:15:25.520 Yes, you are absolutely right.
00:15:26.960 Where do you stand
00:15:27.560 on defund the police?
00:15:28.780 We need to take a look
00:15:29.620 with these budgets.
00:15:30.380 Do you ban plastic straws?
00:15:31.760 I think we should.
00:15:32.300 70 to 80% tax rate.
00:15:34.180 I think that's fantastic.
00:15:35.580 Chipping now
00:15:36.360 to the Minnesota Freedom Fund.
00:15:38.340 How dare we speak
00:15:39.440 Merry Christmas?
00:15:40.420 Yeah, I am radical.
00:15:41.360 I do believe that
00:15:42.300 we need to get radical
00:15:43.360 about what we are doing.
00:15:44.460 I mean, she says,
00:15:46.940 my values have not changed.
00:15:49.280 You might as well believe
00:15:50.220 Comrade Kamala on this one.
00:15:51.720 She's somebody that wants 0.99
00:15:52.940 a 70 to 80% tax rate
00:15:55.100 and said it was awesome.
00:15:57.420 No cash bail,
00:15:58.780 gun confiscation,
00:16:00.440 zero fracking,
00:16:01.520 a ban on gasoline-powered cars
00:16:03.540 she's in favor of as well.
00:16:04.980 So, Ben,
00:16:07.240 on all of those,
00:16:08.300 so it's clear the phrase
00:16:09.360 my values have not changed
00:16:10.680 is something
00:16:11.360 your campaign came up.
00:16:12.500 She said that like,
00:16:13.440 I don't know,
00:16:13.780 three or four times
00:16:14.440 in the interview
00:16:14.960 that they scripted.
00:16:16.660 That was her lead talking point
00:16:18.080 on any flip-flop
00:16:19.000 that she got pressed with
00:16:20.540 is, well,
00:16:20.820 my values have not changed.
00:16:22.440 And actually,
00:16:23.800 at some level,
00:16:25.380 that's the truest statement
00:16:26.460 she made
00:16:26.880 in the entire interview.
00:16:28.320 Yeah, great point.
00:16:28.580 Because Kamala Harris
00:16:29.580 is a radical leftist.
00:16:32.000 She is extreme. 0.70
00:16:34.080 And she still believes
00:16:35.060 all this stuff.
00:16:35.760 And you know what?
00:16:36.720 It's the reason why 0.58
00:16:38.260 nobody on the left
00:16:40.320 is unhappy
00:16:40.960 that she's suddenly
00:16:41.820 running away
00:16:42.860 from her positions
00:16:43.580 because they know
00:16:44.060 she's lying.
00:16:45.320 Like, let's be clear.
00:16:48.200 Border czar Kamala Harris
00:16:49.360 was in charge
00:16:49.980 of this invasion.
00:16:50.820 It happened on her watch.
00:16:52.200 And if, God forbid,
00:16:53.200 she becomes president,
00:16:54.420 it will get worse
00:16:55.520 and everyone gets the joke.
00:16:57.240 All the leftists know
00:16:58.240 she still believes
00:16:59.320 all this stuff.
00:17:00.300 She just has to say
00:17:01.800 some more conservative things
00:17:03.980 in the campaign
00:17:04.780 to fool the gullible voters.
00:17:06.960 But none of her
00:17:08.280 radical supporters
00:17:09.340 believe for a moment
00:17:10.160 she's right.
00:17:11.020 Her values have not changed.
00:17:12.500 She still believes
00:17:13.420 every word of that montage
00:17:15.420 and God forbid
00:17:16.340 if she's in the Oval Office
00:17:17.480 she'll do all of that
00:17:19.080 and more.
00:17:19.860 Unlike Joe Biden, 1.00
00:17:20.980 Joe Biden is a senile puppet. 0.99
00:17:25.100 Kamala Harris 0.98
00:17:25.900 is a true believer.
00:17:28.240 Canadian women
00:17:29.000 are looking for more.
00:17:30.400 More out of themselves,
00:17:31.400 their businesses,

00:17:55.700 or wherever you listen
00:17:56.740 to your podcasts.
00:17:59.240 It was also
00:18:00.380 a very weird interview
00:18:02.240 for the fact that
00:18:03.640 Walsh,
00:18:04.180 who was,
00:18:04.580 I guess,
00:18:05.060 there to babysit
00:18:06.240 and to hold her hand
00:18:07.100 and try to,
00:18:07.780 you know,
00:18:08.060 get her out of trouble 1.00
00:18:08.760 if she got in trouble
00:18:09.680 without a teleprompter.
00:18:11.240 He really didn't say much.
00:18:13.120 It was very awkward,
00:18:14.900 just kind of nodding
00:18:15.960 and laughing.
00:18:17.040 He did,
00:18:17.920 he was asked one question
00:18:19.360 about stolen valor
00:18:20.820 and the claims
00:18:21.560 that he saw combat
00:18:22.540 and Dana asked him
00:18:24.340 a question
00:18:24.860 and I want you
00:18:25.560 to hear his excuse.
00:18:26.860 A,
00:18:27.220 it's his wife's fault 0.99
00:18:29.220 in some capacity
00:18:30.540 that she says,
00:18:33.020 or his wife says
00:18:33.880 it's his fault
00:18:34.620 that sometimes
00:18:35.400 he just misspeaks
00:18:37.000 about if he did
00:18:38.860 or didn't go to war.
00:18:40.760 Listen to this.
00:18:41.640 Governor Walsh,
00:18:42.720 the country is just
00:18:44.100 starting to get to know you.
00:18:45.780 I want to ask you
00:18:47.160 a question about
00:18:47.900 how you've described
00:18:48.920 your service
00:18:49.640 in the National Guard.
00:18:50.820 You said that you
00:18:51.920 carried weapons in war
00:18:53.480 but you have never
00:18:54.880 deployed actually
00:18:55.760 in a war zone.
00:18:57.560 A campaign official
00:18:58.380 said that you misspoke.
00:19:00.000 Did you?
00:19:01.100 Well, first of all,
00:19:01.940 I'm incredibly proud.
00:19:03.280 I've done 24 years
00:19:04.280 of wearing the uniform
00:19:05.240 of this country.
00:19:06.380 Equally proud of my service
00:19:07.500 in a public school classroom,
00:19:08.940 whether it's Congress
00:19:09.640 or the governor.
00:19:11.540 My record speaks for itself
00:19:13.240 but I think people
00:19:14.400 are coming yet to know me.
00:19:15.460 I speak like they do.
00:19:16.920 I speak candidly.
00:19:18.160 I wear my emotions
00:19:18.860 on my sleeves
00:19:19.520 and I speak
00:19:21.320 especially passionately
00:19:22.480 about our children
00:19:24.080 being shot in schools
00:19:25.100 and around guns.
00:19:26.880 So I think people know me.
00:19:28.380 They know who I am.
00:19:29.260 They know where my heart is
00:19:31.220 and again,
00:19:32.180 my record has been out there
00:19:33.260 for over 40 years
00:19:34.300 to speak for itself.
00:19:35.460 And the idea that you said
00:19:38.560 that you were in war.
00:19:39.960 Did you misspeak
00:19:40.840 as the campaign has said?
00:19:41.940 Yeah, I said we were talking
00:19:43.180 about in this case
00:19:43.920 this was after a school shooting
00:19:45.100 the ideas of carrying
00:19:46.180 these weapons of war
00:19:47.160 and my wife,
00:19:48.540 the English,
00:19:48.920 she told my grammar
00:19:49.720 it's not always correct.
00:19:50.720 But again,
00:19:51.260 if it's not this,
00:19:52.460 it's an attack on my children
00:19:53.440 for showing love for me
00:19:55.060 or it's an attack on my dog.
00:19:56.440 I'm not going to do that
00:19:57.500 and the one thing
00:19:58.000 I'll never do is
00:19:58.700 I'll never demean
00:19:59.420 another member's service
00:20:00.960 in any way.
00:20:01.860 I never have
00:20:02.480 and I never will.
00:20:03.940 By the way,
00:20:04.440 yes, you did.
00:20:05.600 You said that you had
00:20:07.300 a rank you didn't have.
00:20:08.740 You said you saw combat
00:20:10.040 that you didn't see.
00:20:11.180 You said you had these guns
00:20:12.920 in wartime
00:20:14.100 that you didn't have
00:20:15.180 and then he says
00:20:16.100 I would never take away
00:20:17.100 from anybody else.
00:20:18.160 You absolutely did.
00:20:19.100 I think this is now
00:20:20.320 going to become
00:20:20.840 even a bigger issue for him
00:20:22.020 because he's like,
00:20:22.560 oh, it was just,
00:20:23.720 you know,
00:20:24.080 it was my grammar.
00:20:25.560 My grammar's not always correct.
00:20:27.400 Claiming you went to war,
00:20:28.880 Senator,
00:20:29.320 has nothing to do
00:20:30.320 with your grammar
00:20:30.920 if you didn't go to war.
00:20:33.260 Yeah, Ben,
00:20:33.740 I've got a different
00:20:34.560 take on this.
00:20:35.300 I think that whole exchange
00:20:36.440 is exactly what
00:20:37.700 the Kamala Harris campaign
00:20:38.840 wanted.
00:20:39.860 It was a softball 0.78
00:20:41.300 for him to talk about.
00:20:42.500 I served 24 years.
00:20:44.000 I'm proud of my service
00:20:45.220 and I also care about kids
00:20:47.100 and keeping kids safe.
00:20:48.140 Like you listen
00:20:48.620 at everything he said.
00:20:50.260 It was their campaign
00:20:51.740 talking points.
00:20:52.660 She just,
00:20:53.440 Dana said,
00:20:53.940 okay, here,
00:20:54.480 talk about praise
00:20:55.460 serving our nation
00:20:56.420 and be a little
00:20:58.120 self-effacing
00:20:59.080 and it,
00:21:00.960 again,
00:21:03.060 so reporters,
00:21:05.560 real reporters
00:21:06.440 actually focus on records.
00:21:08.240 Tim Waltz
00:21:08.920 may well be
00:21:10.200 the most radical governor
00:21:11.400 in the entire
00:21:12.200 United States of America.
00:21:14.240 Governor Waltz,
00:21:14.900 you signed legislation
00:21:15.940 putting tampons
00:21:16.860 in boys' restrooms.
00:21:18.440 Is that a mainstream view?
00:21:20.320 Governor Waltz,
00:21:21.100 you signed legislation
00:21:22.900 giving children
00:21:26.340 a right
00:21:27.360 to being sterilized 0.98
00:21:31.940 and mutilated 1.00
00:21:32.840 if they believe 0.77
00:21:33.620 they're a different gender 0.99
00:21:34.700 and setting the stage
00:21:36.840 for parents
00:21:37.640 to have
00:21:38.400 their parental rights
00:21:39.700 terminated
00:21:40.480 if they object
00:21:42.100 to their child
00:21:43.020 being sterilized.
00:21:44.380 You wanted to make
00:21:45.300 Minnesota
00:21:45.760 a sanctuary state
00:21:47.660 for children
00:21:48.920 who are getting
00:21:49.980 permanently mutilated.
00:21:51.480 Is that a mainstream
00:21:52.820 position,
00:21:53.520 Governor Waltz?
00:21:54.420 Governor Waltz,
00:21:55.240 you said in an interview
00:21:56.680 that the First Amendment
00:21:58.060 does not protect
00:21:59.200 what you call
00:21:59.820 misinformation
00:22:00.420 or hate speech.
00:22:02.220 Do you get to decide
00:22:03.420 what is and isn't
00:22:04.180 misinformation
00:22:04.740 and what exactly,
00:22:07.680 why do you think
00:22:09.380 you ought to have
00:22:10.000 the power
00:22:10.420 to take away
00:22:10.940 the free speech rights
00:22:11.860 of the American people?
00:22:13.460 Those would actually
00:22:14.540 be questions
00:22:15.320 about his actual record,
00:22:18.800 but it would take
00:22:20.000 a journalist
00:22:20.820 raising his record.
00:22:22.480 Now, to be honest,
00:22:24.180 Waltz shouldn't
00:22:24.760 have been there.
00:22:25.980 There is no
00:22:26.540 presidential candidate
00:22:27.540 in history
00:22:28.460 who has been
00:22:29.860 so weak
00:22:30.700 that they needed
00:22:31.380 their vice presidential
00:22:32.260 nominee there. 0.95
00:22:33.160 It was ridiculous 0.96
00:22:34.140 that he was sitting next. 0.97
00:22:35.500 Can you imagine
00:22:36.600 Trump being interviewed
00:22:37.980 and saying,
00:22:38.500 I need J.D. Vance there,
00:22:39.980 I need Mike Pence there?
00:22:41.300 For the first interview
00:22:42.220 ever, by the way,
00:22:43.060 as the candidate, right?
00:22:44.520 Like, let's be clear,
00:22:45.860 they've done
00:22:46.540 candidate two together
00:22:47.900 before,
00:22:48.500 and that's what the left
00:22:49.240 has been saying
00:22:50.000 is like,
00:22:50.660 well, hold on,
00:22:51.600 we've had interviews
00:22:52.460 that have been
00:22:53.140 president and vice president.
00:22:54.580 That is true,
00:22:55.460 but not the first one
00:22:56.960 and not after no one
00:22:58.600 voted for you
00:22:59.480 and you become
00:23:00.020 the nominee.
00:23:01.240 You should be able
00:23:01.800 to stand alone.
00:23:02.340 Tim Waltz was there
00:23:03.120 to be an emotional
00:23:03.900 support puppy.
00:23:05.180 He was just there
00:23:06.520 in case Kamala
00:23:07.200 got into trouble
00:23:08.020 to jump in and save her,
00:23:09.680 and he mostly
00:23:10.400 stayed quiet,
00:23:11.900 but the questions
00:23:13.180 Dana asked him
00:23:14.200 were perfectly
00:23:15.980 calibrated
00:23:16.880 to let him
00:23:18.540 give emotional
00:23:19.540 speeches about
00:23:20.320 what a great guy
00:23:21.200 he is,
00:23:22.260 how much he loves
00:23:23.480 kids,
00:23:23.940 he's been a teacher,
00:23:25.020 he loves kids.
00:23:25.920 Did you mention
00:23:26.320 he loves kids?
00:23:27.580 And he served
00:23:28.740 his nation,
00:23:29.340 and it's great,
00:23:30.040 and he also loves
00:23:31.080 kids.
00:23:32.740 That's not actually
00:23:34.060 an interview.
00:23:35.260 It's a great point.
00:23:36.380 It's not an interview.
00:23:37.280 I also want to get
00:23:38.060 to Harris
00:23:38.540 on the issue
00:23:40.380 of the border.
00:23:41.580 She was asked
00:23:42.260 a question about that,
00:23:43.320 but before I get
00:23:44.200 to that,
00:23:44.960 let me tell you
00:23:45.500 about my friends
00:23:46.080 over at Bond Arms.

00:23:59.780 It is to honor

00:24:06.760 attacks and the
00:24:08.040 attempted assassination

00:24:09.720 has and immediately
00:24:10.940 go back to work

00:25:21.160 You know, Kamala
00:25:22.160 Harris is the
00:25:23.180 border czar.
00:25:24.120 Anyone with a
00:25:24.760 brain center knows
00:25:25.760 that's what they
00:25:26.640 called her.
00:25:27.220 We played the
00:25:27.840 montage on this
00:25:28.640 show several times
00:25:29.780 of the media and
00:25:31.660 liberal members of
00:25:33.560 the media calling
00:25:34.760 her the border czar.
00:25:36.760 Then it became the
00:25:38.140 inconvenient truth,
00:25:39.100 so they're like,
00:25:39.420 well, she never 0.98
00:25:40.000 really was the
00:25:40.780 border czar, and
00:25:41.500 we were like,
00:25:42.040 yes, she was.
00:25:42.680 You guys called
00:25:43.240 her that. 0.97
00:25:43.980 Here's when you
00:25:44.480 called her that.
00:25:45.460 But she was asked
00:25:46.560 another softball 0.98
00:25:47.480 question.
00:25:48.440 This was Dana
00:25:49.020 Bash and Harris.
00:25:50.700 ...to my desk and
00:25:51.580 I would sign it.
00:25:52.480 Just one other
00:25:53.000 question about
00:25:53.820 something that you
00:25:55.280 said in 2019
00:25:56.720 when you first ran.
00:25:58.340 There was a debate.
00:25:59.000 You raised your
00:25:59.560 hand when asked
00:26:00.620 whether or not
00:26:01.880 the border should
00:26:03.240 be decriminalized.
00:26:05.480 Do you still
00:26:05.880 believe that?
00:26:07.400 I believe there
00:26:08.080 should be
00:26:08.380 consequence.
00:26:08.860 We have laws
00:26:09.800 that have to be
00:26:10.960 followed and
00:26:11.680 enforced, that
00:26:13.260 address and deal
00:26:14.420 with people who
00:26:15.080 cross our border
00:26:16.020 illegally, and there
00:26:17.700 should be consequence.
00:26:18.580 And let's be clear,
00:26:19.420 in this race, I'm the
00:26:20.980 only person who has
00:26:23.040 prosecuted transnational
00:26:25.340 criminal organizations
00:26:26.300 who are trafficking
00:26:27.040 guns, drugs, and
00:26:28.300 human beings.
00:26:29.200 I'm the only person in
00:26:30.740 this race who actually
00:26:32.360 served a border state
00:26:34.480 as attorney general to
00:26:35.640 enforce our laws, and
00:26:36.780 I would enforce our
00:26:37.880 laws as president
00:26:38.740 going forward.
00:26:39.500 I recognize the
00:26:40.380 problem.
00:26:41.560 Generally speaking...
00:26:42.760 So let me jump in
00:26:44.140 there.
00:26:44.320 Let me jump in there
00:26:45.000 and say a couple of
00:26:45.540 things.
00:26:45.800 Number one, her
00:26:47.460 statement there that
00:26:48.240 she's the only person
00:26:49.060 that has prosecuted
00:26:49.920 transnational border...
00:26:51.580 transnational gangs
00:26:52.920 is completely wrong.
00:26:54.520 Donald Trump was
00:26:55.100 president for four
00:26:55.840 years.
00:26:56.360 The Trump
00:26:57.080 administration
00:26:57.760 prosecuted drug
00:26:59.560 traffickers, human
00:27:00.560 traffickers, transnational
00:27:01.920 gangs over and over and
00:27:03.460 over again.
00:27:04.380 He had an entire
00:27:05.340 Department of Justice.
00:27:06.260 So her premise...
00:27:07.320 Now, she could say,
00:27:08.320 well, but I was the
00:27:09.120 lawyer.
00:27:09.960 Okay, when you were
00:27:11.140 attorney general, I'm
00:27:12.760 not aware of Kamala
00:27:13.620 actually going to
00:27:14.320 court.
00:27:14.620 If her argument was
00:27:15.380 she went to court,
00:27:16.340 I'm not aware of her
00:27:17.380 actually being personally
00:27:18.640 in court.
00:27:19.580 It's the same thing,
00:27:20.760 which is...
00:27:22.020 Except the difference
00:27:23.560 is the Trump
00:27:24.320 administration had
00:27:25.240 incredible success,
00:27:27.180 and Kamala's
00:27:28.200 position, she 0.99
00:27:29.120 repeatedly...
00:27:31.080 And let me say
00:27:32.280 something else.
00:27:32.700 I'm going to go back
00:27:33.140 to her position
00:27:33.660 in a second.
00:27:35.020 Dana Bash's
00:27:35.880 question, Kamala
00:27:37.340 didn't answer.
00:27:38.020 It's one of the
00:27:38.360 reasons this was...
00:27:39.480 It wasn't an
00:27:40.120 interview, but it
00:27:41.160 was also terrible.
00:27:43.760 Most of the
00:27:44.460 questions Dana Bash
00:27:45.440 asked, Kamala
00:27:47.340 didn't answer.
00:27:48.760 Do you still
00:27:49.860 support decriminalizing
00:27:51.640 crossing illegally
00:27:52.560 into this country?
00:27:53.340 She didn't answer
00:27:53.780 that at all.
00:27:54.820 She said there must
00:27:55.400 be consequences.
00:27:56.240 Okay, let me go
00:27:56.680 back.
00:27:57.400 You said it should
00:27:58.260 be decriminalized.
00:27:59.520 Do you still
00:28:00.000 support that?
00:28:00.640 Yes or no?
00:28:01.100 She didn't get
00:28:02.560 an answer to
00:28:03.140 that.
00:28:03.880 She also did 0.96
00:28:05.520 not get at all
00:28:06.960 into the
00:28:08.340 disastrous record.
00:28:09.620 So this entire
00:28:10.500 interview is
00:28:11.920 designed to let
00:28:13.320 Kamala run
00:28:14.580 away from Joe
00:28:15.540 Biden and her
00:28:16.420 own record
00:28:17.180 to pretend
00:28:19.560 that her record
00:28:20.620 does not exist.
00:28:21.780 and so there
00:28:25.060 wasn't a word
00:28:25.660 about under
00:28:27.340 your administration
00:28:29.200 11.5 million
00:28:30.300 illegal aliens
00:28:30.900 have come into
00:28:31.320 this country.
00:28:32.360 Under your
00:28:33.160 administration,
00:28:34.540 Barack Obama
00:28:36.020 used the power
00:28:37.440 of parole to
00:28:38.120 parole roughly
00:28:38.860 5,000 illegal
00:28:39.840 aliens a year to
00:28:40.600 release them into
00:28:41.100 the country.
00:28:41.600 Donald Trump
00:28:42.080 used the power
00:28:42.660 of parole to
00:28:43.680 parole roughly
00:28:45.000 5,000 illegal
00:28:45.880 immigrants a year 1.00
00:28:46.680 to release them
00:28:47.580 into this country.
00:28:48.380 Parole is an
00:28:48.900 extraordinary
00:28:49.500 discretion given
00:28:51.620 to the president.
00:28:52.880 Under Joe
00:28:53.440 Biden, your
00:28:54.100 administration,
00:28:55.100 you and Joe
00:28:55.860 Biden used
00:28:57.040 that to parole
00:28:57.880 over 800,000
00:29:00.160 illegal immigrants
00:29:00.920 a year over
00:29:01.720 and over and
00:29:02.400 over again.
00:29:03.140 Was that a
00:29:03.800 mistake?
00:29:04.380 Will you stop
00:29:05.260 doing that?
00:29:05.920 Was Joe
00:29:06.440 Biden wrong?
00:29:07.320 Did you disagree?
00:29:08.400 Did you ever
00:29:08.820 say you disagreed?
00:29:10.500 You were widely
00:29:12.160 reported to be
00:29:13.040 the border czar.
00:29:14.200 Did you have any
00:29:15.240 responsibility for
00:29:16.100 what was happening
00:29:16.800 at the border or
00:29:17.440 are you saying you
00:29:18.020 had no responsibility
00:29:18.920 whatsoever?
00:29:19.900 Like those would
00:29:20.980 be questions a
00:29:22.700 journalist would
00:29:23.820 ask.
00:29:24.380 Not a word of
00:29:24.940 that came out of
00:29:25.600 CNN's mouth.
00:29:26.920 Yeah, not one
00:29:27.880 single bit of it.
00:29:28.660 And then you go
00:29:29.260 back to the
00:29:29.920 policy.
00:29:30.500 She says I
00:29:31.200 would enforce
00:29:31.820 the law.
00:29:33.280 They haven't
00:29:34.080 enforced the
00:29:34.720 law the entire
00:29:35.780 time they've been
00:29:36.600 in office, which
00:29:37.300 goes back to the
00:29:38.200 bigger conversation
00:29:39.340 here about this
00:29:40.120 interview.
00:29:40.920 She said she's
00:29:41.960 going to come in
00:29:42.540 day one and fix
00:29:43.420 all these problems.
00:29:44.740 What's stopping
00:29:45.580 her from doing it
00:29:46.360 right now?
00:29:46.960 Clearly Joe
00:29:47.600 Biden's not running
00:29:48.460 the country.
00:29:49.040 And then she
00:29:49.940 says on the
00:29:50.800 border, she's the 1.00
00:29:51.800 damn border czar 1.00
00:29:52.680 unless she got 1.00
00:29:53.480 fired from that
00:29:54.220 job, which has
00:29:54.920 not been publicized.
00:29:56.660 Hold on a second.
00:29:58.300 Dana Bash starts
00:29:59.580 the border discussion
00:30:00.620 not by saying you're
00:30:02.580 the border czar, but
00:30:04.020 by saying you were
00:30:05.880 asked to address the
00:30:07.360 root causes of
00:30:08.760 migration.
00:30:09.940 Yeah.
00:30:10.500 in northern Central
00:30:12.740 America.
00:30:13.340 Literally, those are
00:30:15.160 the Kamala Harris
00:30:16.040 talking points.
00:30:16.980 That's what they
00:30:17.840 say.
00:30:18.880 That's Dana Bash's
00:30:19.900 question.
00:30:20.960 Hey, here's your
00:30:21.540 talking points on
00:30:22.320 this.
00:30:22.500 And she says, oh, I
00:30:23.560 did great things to
00:30:25.900 address the root
00:30:26.720 causes.
00:30:28.880 It there is.
00:30:31.020 By the way, let's
00:30:33.100 go back again.
00:30:33.760 I actually think the
00:30:34.420 Tim Russert contrast
00:30:35.360 is is enormously like
00:30:37.320 Tim Russert was the
00:30:38.840 most feared interviewer
00:30:40.080 in in journalism
00:30:41.120 because he would have
00:30:42.120 a politician on and
00:30:43.800 he would take your
00:30:44.660 prior statements and
00:30:45.580 your prior record and
00:30:46.400 he put your record in
00:30:47.180 front of you over and
00:30:47.900 over and over and
00:30:48.500 over again.
00:30:48.820 It was the gold
00:30:49.260 standard.
00:30:50.260 In this instance,
00:30:51.600 Anna Bash didn't
00:30:52.280 ask.
00:30:53.180 Madam Vice President,
00:30:54.500 the Inspector General
00:30:55.340 of the Department of
00:30:56.140 HHS found that your
00:30:57.680 administration lost
00:30:59.480 320,000 children.
00:31:03.360 What should the
00:31:03.880 American people think
00:31:04.920 of your administration
00:31:05.720 losing 320,000?
00:31:07.760 Do you know where
00:31:08.740 they are?
00:31:09.300 What are you doing
00:31:09.920 to find them?
00:31:10.840 Have you done
00:31:11.280 anything to find
00:31:12.040 them?
00:31:12.640 How many of those
00:31:13.500 children right now
00:31:14.740 are being sexually 0.87
00:31:16.080 abused? 0.74
00:31:17.060 How many of them
00:31:17.840 are trapped in
00:31:19.080 horribly abusive
00:31:19.940 situations?
00:31:21.120 Do you take any
00:31:21.880 responsibility for
00:31:22.820 that?
00:31:23.540 Like that would be
00:31:25.000 normal questioning
00:31:27.420 that a journalist
00:31:28.480 would ask.
00:31:29.560 So, of course,
00:31:30.620 because there was
00:31:31.420 not a journalist in
00:31:32.340 the room, none of
00:31:33.500 those questions
00:31:34.060 happened.
00:31:35.120 When you look at
00:31:36.240 this interview and
00:31:37.240 it obviously depends
00:31:38.460 on who you talk
00:31:39.220 to, right?
00:31:39.760 You go and look
00:31:40.660 at conservative
00:31:41.260 headlines and it's
00:31:42.320 like train wreck.
00:31:43.820 CNN pushes Kamala 0.98
00:31:44.980 Harris hard on
00:31:45.860 issues, another
00:31:46.600 headline says.
00:31:47.920 Harris unprepared,
00:31:49.180 no good answers.
00:31:50.900 Walt's hit on
00:31:51.840 stolen valor.
00:31:53.020 VP defends
00:31:53.900 Bidenomics fails to
00:31:55.520 explain why she did 0.99
00:31:56.860 not lower prices.
00:31:58.320 I mean, the
00:31:58.760 headlines, my point
00:31:59.760 is, are all over
00:32:00.680 the place.
00:32:01.240 But when Bidenomics
00:32:03.360 is a great example,
00:32:04.960 she referred to it
00:32:06.240 as good work,
00:32:07.640 Senator.
00:32:08.000 It's good work.
00:32:09.320 Really?
00:32:09.760 Like Bidenomics,
00:32:10.700 which has been a
00:32:11.460 disaster, she says,
00:32:13.460 no, no, no, it's
00:32:14.140 not really a disaster.
00:32:15.680 It's pretty good work.
00:32:16.960 You maintain
00:32:17.480 Bidenomics is a
00:32:19.340 success.
00:32:19.920 I maintain that
00:32:21.360 when we do the
00:32:22.300 work of bringing
00:32:22.940 down prescription
00:32:23.600 medication for the
00:32:24.520 American people,
00:32:25.280 including capping
00:32:26.060 the cost of the
00:32:27.240 annual cost of
00:32:28.100 prescription medication
00:32:28.840 for seniors at
00:32:29.540 $2,000, when we do
00:32:31.480 what we did in the
00:32:32.600 first year of being
00:32:33.400 in office to extend
00:32:35.180 the child tax credit
00:32:36.300 so that we cut child
00:32:37.420 poverty in America by
00:32:38.640 over 50 percent, when
00:32:40.400 we do what we have
00:32:41.580 done to invest in the
00:32:43.160 American people and
00:32:44.160 bringing manufacturing
00:32:45.360 back to the United
00:32:46.360 States so that we
00:32:47.440 created over 800,000
00:32:49.120 new manufacturing jobs,
00:32:50.840 bringing business back
00:32:52.220 to America, what we
00:32:53.740 have done to improve
00:32:55.140 the supply chain so
00:32:56.180 we're not relying on
00:32:57.640 foreign governments,
00:32:58.840 to supply American
00:33:00.200 families with their
00:33:01.000 basic needs, I'll say
00:33:02.780 that that's good work.
00:33:04.060 There's more to do,
00:33:05.100 but that's good work.
00:33:06.780 I mean, where do you
00:33:09.460 even start?
00:33:10.160 Grocery prices?
00:33:11.160 Home prices?
00:33:12.160 Food?
00:33:12.360 I mean, where do you
00:33:13.480 want to go with this?
00:33:14.680 But let me give my
00:33:16.280 bottom line.
00:33:18.100 This interview did
00:33:20.120 absolutely nothing to
00:33:21.620 impact the presidential
00:33:22.640 election in November.
00:33:24.800 The Kamala Harris
00:33:25.640 campaign is high-fiving.
00:33:27.180 They're thrilled.
00:33:28.840 Because now they have
00:33:30.000 an excuse not to do
00:33:31.000 another interview for
00:33:31.940 at least another month
00:33:32.800 because they'll say they
00:33:34.180 did an interview.
00:33:34.900 So they will quickly
00:33:36.480 rush her back to Joe
00:33:37.680 Biden's basement and
00:33:38.600 hide her there.
00:33:40.340 And all this was was a
00:33:42.740 campaign commercial.
00:33:43.740 What she's saying there,
00:33:44.880 she's reading their
00:33:45.520 talking points.
00:33:47.660 It, the headlines you
00:33:49.800 read, I don't know what
00:33:50.740 outlets they are, but I'm
00:33:51.820 going to guess that
00:33:52.420 everyone that says
00:33:53.180 train wreck is a right of
00:33:55.280 center outlet.
00:33:55.780 You've got Breitbart and
00:33:56.880 Fox News and all of
00:33:58.220 those.
00:33:58.920 And you know what?
00:33:59.580 So what?
00:34:00.060 The people reading that
00:34:00.960 aren't going to vote for
00:34:01.620 her anyway.
00:34:02.220 Like, like, I don't think
00:34:03.680 there was a single thing in
00:34:05.380 this interview that moved
00:34:07.700 even one voter to change
00:34:11.200 how they're going to vote in
00:34:12.160 November.
00:34:13.560 And if there was, I'm sorry
00:34:16.620 to say it moved them
00:34:17.800 towards Kamala Harris,
00:34:19.520 because if there's a voter 1.00
00:34:20.740 who's a naive and ignorant 1.00
00:34:22.940 voter who doesn't know 1.00
00:34:24.020 anything, they listened
00:34:26.160 to 20 some odd minutes
00:34:28.680 of her reading campaign
00:34:30.780 talking points.
00:34:33.580 Look, foreign policy.
00:34:35.980 On foreign policy,
00:34:38.980 okay, there was no question
00:34:39.860 about Ukraine and the
00:34:40.740 disaster that the
00:34:41.520 administration has done on
00:34:42.560 that.
00:34:42.940 There was no question about
00:34:43.900 Afghanistan and the
00:34:44.840 disaster there.
00:34:45.760 There was no question about
00:34:46.720 why Joe Biden denied that
00:34:48.900 13 servicemen and women were
00:34:50.300 killed in Afghanistan due to
00:34:51.540 their utter incompetence in
00:34:52.720 the disgrace of this
00:34:54.140 administration.
00:34:54.720 None of those were
00:34:55.200 questions.
00:34:56.060 The question was instead
00:34:57.200 about Israel.
00:34:58.660 And what did it do?
00:34:59.540 It gave Kamala Harris a 0.99
00:35:00.620 chance to say October 7th
00:35:02.460 was terrible and to say,
00:35:03.600 I will always stand for
00:35:05.060 Israel.
00:35:05.540 And Dana Bash asked,
00:35:06.760 as president, will you cut
00:35:09.100 off weapons to Israel?
00:35:11.320 And Kamala Harris refuses
00:35:13.700 to answer.
00:35:14.240 She says, Israel has a right 0.98
00:35:16.020 to defend itself.
00:35:16.740 Doesn't answer the question
00:35:17.560 at all.
00:35:18.800 Okay, Dana, here's a crazy
00:35:20.920 question.
00:35:21.460 Joe Biden right now, this
00:35:23.780 instant, your administration
00:35:25.320 has frozen weapons to
00:35:26.920 Israel, is not sending the 0.99
00:35:28.480 weapons to Israel that
00:35:29.340 Congress appropriated.
00:35:30.580 Do you agree with that?
00:35:31.740 Is Joe Biden wrong to refuse
00:35:34.260 to send weapons to Israel?
00:35:36.280 That would be a real
00:35:37.500 question.
00:35:38.020 So, of course, Dana Bash
00:35:38.880 didn't ask that.
00:35:39.480 She also didn't ask, Madam
00:35:41.820 Vice President, you and Joe
00:35:43.200 Biden sent hundreds of
00:35:44.200 millions of dollars to Gaza.
00:35:45.740 You did so after your
00:35:47.280 administration concluded
00:35:48.420 that it was likely that that
00:35:49.540 money would be used by Hamas
00:35:50.780 to carry out terrorism.
00:35:52.520 In light of October 7th, in
00:35:54.020 light of the determination
00:35:55.120 that it was highly likely,
00:35:56.480 that was your administration's
00:35:57.740 determination, it would be
00:35:58.920 used for terrorism.
00:35:59.760 Was it a mistake to send
00:36:01.200 hundreds of millions of
00:36:01.980 dollars that were highly
00:36:02.820 likely to be used by
00:36:03.720 terrorism?
00:36:04.400 By the way, you want to
00:36:05.300 talk foreign policy, Iran.
00:36:06.780 Your administration, Madam
00:36:07.860 Vice President, has sent over
00:36:10.000 $100 billion to Iran.
00:36:14.000 Iran provides 90% of the
00:36:15.600 funding for Hamas, 90% of
00:36:17.000 the funding for Hezbollah.
00:36:18.280 In a very real sense, the
00:36:19.560 death squads on October 7th
00:36:21.200 was funded by your
00:36:23.340 administration.
00:36:24.180 Do you regret that?
00:36:25.180 Was that a mistake?
00:36:26.620 Madam Vice President, why do 1.00
00:36:28.420 you continue today to refuse
00:36:31.240 to enforce the oil sanctions
00:36:32.540 against Iran?
00:36:33.580 Why are you allowing Iran to 1.00
00:36:35.280 sell 2 million barrels a day
00:36:38.120 of oil?
00:36:38.900 When you became Vice
00:36:40.040 President, they were selling
00:36:41.020 300,000 barrels a day.
00:36:43.020 It was crushing the Iranian 1.00
00:36:44.340 economy.
00:36:44.940 And Madam Vice President, by
00:36:46.720 the way, on fracking, you
00:36:47.700 said a minute ago you
00:36:48.520 weren't going to ban
00:36:49.080 fracking.
00:36:49.860 Why is it that you're so
00:36:51.200 eager to support oil and
00:36:52.620 gas production in Iran, led 0.99
00:36:54.780 by a theocratic lunatic who 0.98
00:36:56.360 chanced death to America, but 0.99
00:36:58.080 you and your administration
00:36:59.820 have put in regulation after
00:37:01.240 regulation, hammering oil and
00:37:03.180 gas jobs in the United
00:37:04.140 States?
00:37:05.040 Those are questions an actual
00:37:07.260 journalist would ask.
00:37:08.560 There's only one moment in
00:37:10.320 this whole debate, Senator,
00:37:11.880 or I should say this
00:37:12.900 television interview.
00:37:14.940 Um, that I think that the
00:37:17.440 Trump campaign could really
00:37:19.620 use to their advantage in a
00:37:21.480 TV ad.
00:37:22.520 And I want to play it for you
00:37:24.060 and get your thoughts, because
00:37:25.100 there was this moment for me
00:37:27.620 where I was like, OK, maybe
00:37:28.860 this is useful.
00:37:29.720 So you have been vice
00:37:31.060 president for three and a
00:37:32.040 half years.
00:37:33.160 The steps that you're talking
00:37:34.420 about now, why haven't you
00:37:36.520 done them already?
00:37:37.920 Well, first of all, we had to
00:37:39.460 recover as an economy and we
00:37:41.420 have done that.
00:37:41.920 And I'm very proud of the
00:37:43.060 work that we have done that
00:37:44.120 has brought inflation down to
00:37:45.480 less than 3 percent.
00:37:46.860 The work that we have done to
00:37:48.020 cap the cost of insulin at $35 a
00:37:50.380 month for seniors.
00:37:51.500 Donald Trump said he was going
00:37:52.500 to do a number of things,
00:37:53.420 including allowing Medicare to
00:37:54.940 negotiate drug prices.
00:37:55.880 Never happened.
00:37:57.060 We did it.
00:37:57.720 So now, as I travel in the state
00:38:00.540 of Georgia and around our
00:38:01.640 country, the number of seniors
00:38:02.960 that have benefited, I've met, I
00:38:05.460 was in Nevada recently, a
00:38:07.380 grandmother who showed me her
00:38:09.860 receipts.
00:38:11.240 And before we kept the cost of
00:38:13.080 insulin for seniors at $35 a
00:38:14.860 month, she was paying hundreds of
00:38:16.280 dollars, up to thousands of
00:38:17.840 dollars a month for her insulin.
00:38:19.700 She's not doing that anymore. 1.00
00:38:21.820 I mean, that's the, that might be
00:38:24.600 your only moment where you could
00:38:26.040 say, okay, maybe we can make a
00:38:28.740 campaign out of this that why
00:38:30.480 didn't you do what you say you're
00:38:33.000 going to do day one now?
00:38:35.240 I'm not with you on that.
00:38:36.340 I actually think Dana Bash gave
00:38:39.440 her a perfect opportunity.
00:38:40.880 Give me your talking point.
00:38:42.240 So, so the only questions that
00:38:44.240 she had that were sort of pretend
00:38:45.640 questions when she asked Tim
00:38:47.680 Waltz about stolen valor, it was a
00:38:50.100 softball for him to give a speech
00:38:52.640 about how much, how important
00:38:54.200 military service is and how
00:38:56.000 much he loves America.
00:38:57.380 When she, he, she asked her that
00:38:59.960 question, look, it's such an
00:39:01.840 obvious question that it was sort
00:39:03.260 of like, what is your talking
00:39:05.580 point in response to this?
00:39:07.140 And that whole riff there, if you
00:39:09.360 are a voter who's not paying much
00:39:12.120 attention, who doesn't know the
00:39:13.100 record, that riff sounds pretty
00:39:15.020 good.
00:39:15.360 Okay.
00:39:15.680 So we had a pandemic, you had to
00:39:16.900 deal with that.
00:39:17.660 And, and then, Hey, we did this
00:39:19.500 thing on insulin.
00:39:20.200 I'm not sure what the thing on
00:39:21.520 insulin is.
00:39:22.200 See it that the person listening
00:39:23.820 might be saying, but, but you
00:39:25.880 told me about a woman who had
00:39:26.900 really high receipts and then they
00:39:28.120 went down.
00:39:28.740 So, wow.
00:39:29.160 Okay.
00:39:29.340 Apparently you did something.
00:39:31.720 That whole riff is a prepared
00:39:33.860 riff.
00:39:35.260 That is their defense.
00:39:37.080 And, and, and there is, there was
00:39:41.020 nothing actually calling to account
00:39:43.700 for the actual record, the disaster
00:39:47.580 of the record.
00:39:48.920 But by the way, going back to the
00:39:51.140 border, her statements were not
00:39:54.180 just, not just the statement you
00:39:57.020 raised your hand and said that you
00:39:58.340 would decriminalize illegal
00:40:00.160 immigration.
00:40:00.620 You've also said you would abolish
00:40:02.060 ICE.
00:40:02.500 Do you still want to abolish ICE?
00:40:03.800 You've also said the wall was 0.97
00:40:05.180 ridiculous. 0.87
00:40:05.780 Do you still want to do that? 0.99
00:40:06.700 Well, now you've said you want to
00:40:08.180 build the wall.
00:40:10.100 You know, her position, you said,
00:40:13.080 and by the way, a real interview
00:40:14.720 would, would play this.
00:40:16.580 You said on day one, you would shut
00:40:20.100 down every ICE detention center and
00:40:21.980 you would not detain illegal
00:40:23.280 immigrants.
00:40:24.300 Abolish ICE.
00:40:24.640 Do you still believe that?
00:40:26.420 Abolish ICE.
00:40:26.880 Yeah.
00:40:27.100 But, but also shut down the
00:40:28.860 detention centers.
00:40:30.220 You know, you know what was nowhere
00:40:31.480 in the question?
00:40:34.440 Jocelyn Nungary, Lakin Riley,
00:40:36.700 Rachel Morin, like a real question
00:40:39.620 would be, Lakin Riley was killed by an
00:40:43.040 illegal immigrant that you and Joe
00:40:44.820 Biden released.
00:40:45.620 Was that a mistake to release that
00:40:46.820 immigrant? 0.98
00:40:48.080 Rachel Morin was raped and murdered by 1.00
00:40:49.900 an illegal immigrant that you and Joe 0.97
00:40:51.320 Biden released.
00:40:51.980 Was that a mistake to release that
00:40:53.220 illegal immigrant?
00:40:53.780 Jocelyn Nungary was, was, was, was, was 1.00
00:40:56.160 raped and killed by two illegal 0.99
00:40:57.940 immigrants that you and Joe Biden 0.99
00:40:59.160 released.
00:40:59.540 Was that a mistake to release that
00:41:00.740 immigrant?
00:41:01.800 How many is enough?
00:41:02.900 Like, like, like that actually would
00:41:04.760 be laying out.
00:41:06.900 And have you changed anything?
00:41:08.280 Why do you continue to release
00:41:10.260 illegal immigrants who go on every 1.00
00:41:13.120 day to murder Americans, to rape 1.00
00:41:15.700 women, to, to violate children? 1.00
00:41:18.100 You know, we talked about the previous 0.70
00:41:20.360 podcast, the, the, they just halted
00:41:22.880 their plan.
00:41:24.320 Your administration flew into America 0.74
00:41:27.220 over 300,000 illegal immigrants a
00:41:29.580 year, flew them in.
00:41:30.940 They didn't cross the border.
00:41:31.900 You flew them in from Haiti, from 0.99
00:41:33.860 Cuba, from Nicaragua and Venezuela.
00:41:36.300 One of the illegal immigrants you flew 1.00
00:41:38.060 in, you flew into Boston, you released 0.99
00:41:39.800 him in Boston and he, he raped a 15 0.99
00:41:42.560 year old girl with severe mental 1.00
00:41:44.840 disabilities.
00:41:45.480 Was that a mistake to fly into this
00:41:48.160 country, an illegal immigrant who 1.00
00:41:50.080 raped a teenage girl? 1.00
00:41:51.920 You know what? 0.99
00:41:52.460 Those are hard questions for her to
00:41:54.320 answer.
00:41:55.360 That's why she doesn't do interviews, 1.00
00:41:57.700 but she still doesn't do interviews. 0.98
00:42:00.620 This was not an interview.
00:42:02.040 They sat there and knew Dana Bash is 0.52
00:42:05.380 part of the campaign.
00:42:06.980 Just like if she was sitting there with
00:42:09.660 Corrine Jean-Pierre to do a fake
00:42:11.740 interview, they'd know they would never
00:42:13.260 get those questions because those are
00:42:14.700 questions that are a real problem.
00:42:16.960 They knew they'd never get them from
00:42:18.340 Dana Bash either.
00:42:20.280 Yeah.
00:42:20.740 And it was apparent that, like you
00:42:22.300 said, this was nothing but propaganda.
00:42:25.120 Patriot Mobile is the only conservative
00:42:27.500 Christian wireless provider in the
00:42:29.860 country.
00:42:30.320 And I've been telling you about them for
00:42:32.240 quite some time.
00:42:33.120 And if you haven't switched to Patriot
00:42:35.680 Mobile, now's the time to do it,
00:42:37.500 especially in this election cycle.
00:42:39.980 Patriot Mobile is proud of what they
00:42:42.900 believe in and what they stand for.
00:42:45.220 And they take 5% of your bill every
00:42:47.480 single month and they give it back to
00:42:50.100 conservative causes at no extra cost to
00:42:53.380 you.
00:42:54.120 They give them the causes that support and
00:42:56.520 are fighting on the front lines for our
00:42:58.120 first and our second amendment rights, the
00:42:59.820 sanctity of life, our military, our wounded
00:43:02.620 warriors, our veterans, and our first
00:43:05.160 responders who are our heroes.
00:43:07.060 This is why I switched to Patriot Mobile.
00:43:11.080 Because Big Mobile gives big donations,
00:43:14.080 especially right now in this election
00:43:15.820 cycle, to hardcore Democrats that are
00:43:20.120 running for office.
00:43:21.520 They also give money to radical organizations
00:43:23.820 that pay in support for abortions.

00:44:16.500 Senator, finally on this, I want to go over
00:44:19.220 the list.
00:44:19.820 It was an interesting list that was thrown
00:44:21.260 out right after the interview.
00:44:23.040 Trump and Vance put this out, the campaign.
00:44:25.560 It said, here are all the things Kamala Harris
00:44:28.220 failed to address tonight with CNN.
00:44:30.280 Kamala support for ending cash bail for violent
00:44:32.420 criminals, Kamala's fundraising for the Minnesota
00:44:35.040 Freedom Fund, which freed rioters, Kamala's
00:44:37.820 tie-breaking vote for the American Rescue Plan,
00:44:40.360 which economists say fueled inflation, Kamala's
00:44:43.920 support for defunding the police, Kamala's comments
00:44:47.420 comparing policing to slavery, Kamala's repeated
00:44:50.740 praise of Bidenomics, Kamala's support for Medicare
00:44:53.780 for All, a socialist takeover of our health care system.
00:44:56.680 And that's just some of the highlights here.
00:45:00.100 Is that really what this election is going to be
00:45:02.720 about?
00:45:03.200 And is that what he has to bring out in the debate
00:45:05.740 that's going to be coming up fairly soon?
00:45:08.180 Yes.
00:45:09.020 Look, if this election is on Kamala's record and
00:45:13.240 Donald Trump's record, if this election is on the
00:45:15.420 issues, we win.
00:45:16.540 If it's not, if it is all about hopey, changey joy and
00:45:24.640 Trump derangement syndrome, then Kamala could win. 1.00
00:45:30.260 And the media is going to spend billions of dollars trying
00:45:33.740 to cover up all of the substantive issues.
00:45:37.240 Look, you want to see what propaganda is like.
00:45:40.480 Look at the last two questions Dana Bash has.
00:45:43.940 Now, understand, this is the first interview in over a
00:45:48.440 month of the Democrat nominee to be president.
00:45:51.960 So she has been hiding from interviews for more than a
00:45:53.960 month.
00:45:54.840 Like, every question is precious real estate.
00:45:57.460 Her last two questions, she turns to Tim Waltz and says,
00:46:01.200 oh, there was an amazing image of your son at the
00:46:04.020 convention, so excited, saying, I'm proud of my dad.
00:46:07.520 They play the video and he says, oh, I'm so, that was an
00:46:10.780 amazing moment of his dad.
00:46:12.160 I feel great.
00:46:12.940 Like, cue the music.
00:46:16.400 Could we put some kittens and puppies around him?
00:46:19.480 You know, maybe hearts like he's a soft, tender dad.
00:46:23.940 And then, that's not enough.
00:46:27.180 Then she turns to Kamala.
00:46:28.780 Oh, there was a picture from the convention of your niece,
00:46:33.280 an adorable little girl with two pigtails.
00:46:35.500 And the picture shows her looking at you speaking, gazing
00:46:39.260 adoringly.
00:46:40.560 It was inspirational.
00:46:43.240 It's a moment.
00:46:44.240 Oh, Kamala.
00:46:45.520 I mean, this is not journalism.
00:46:51.720 This is, Karine Jean-Pierre would not have gushed more.
00:46:55.500 If it was the campaign putting out a fake documentary,
00:47:01.540 the fake documentary would have closed with those two questions.
00:47:06.880 And the image, in fact, they would have faded out on the image of
00:47:11.040 the little girl with pigtails gazing at Kamala as an inspirational hero.
00:47:16.760 That was CNN's objective.
00:47:19.820 And that's a lot of things.
00:47:22.080 But you know what?
00:47:22.840 It ain't.
00:47:23.580 It ain't journalism.
00:47:24.860 Yeah.
