GOP Moves to Ban LGBTQ+ Flag from Public School Rooms · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: There is a law that is being passed in some
0:04
Speaker 1: states around the country.
0:05
Speaker 2: It is being discussed in many states, and it's.
0:07
Speaker 1: Something that the mainstream media in the left don't want
0:10
Speaker 1: you to know is an issue because they do not
0:12
Speaker 1: want you to show up and they do not want
0:14
Speaker 1: you to put pressure on your elected officials to do this.
0:18
Speaker 1: My home state of Tennessee, and the House there in
0:22
Speaker 1: Tennessee has passed a bill that bans LGBTQ flags in
0:29
Speaker 1: public school classrooms. The vote was seventy to twenty four
0:34
Speaker 1: and could be voted on by the Senate as early
0:36
Speaker 1: as later this week. Now, the argument is it has
0:40
Speaker 1: no place in the classroom. Right, we've removed religion from
0:43
Speaker 1: the classroom, why would we not remove the LGBTQIA.
0:48
Speaker 2: Plus plus plus flag, which.
0:49
Speaker 1: For many is in fact a religion. This is not
0:53
Speaker 1: what schools should be about. I don't think there should
0:56
Speaker 1: be any political flags in our schools. In fact, the
0:58
Speaker 1: only flag I think should be in and there should
1:00
Speaker 1: be the state flag of the state where the school
1:04
Speaker 1: is and the flag of the United States of America.
1:07
Speaker 2: That's it.
1:08
Speaker 1: There shouldn't be gay flags or advocacy flags of anything
1:13
Speaker 1: else flying in our public schools. The schools need to
1:16
Speaker 1: go back to stop indoctrinating our kids. And what they
1:19
Speaker 1: need to do is they need to go back to
1:21
Speaker 1: teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic. I'm going to give you
1:24
Speaker 1: that in a second, but i want to tell you
1:25
Speaker 1: real quick about our good friends over at Patriot Mobile.
1:28
Speaker 1: If you have a cell phone, I want you to
1:30
Speaker 1: take a listen. I switch to Patriot Mobile and it's
1:33
Speaker 1: been amazing. Switching was easy. But what happens when I
1:37
Speaker 1: use my phone and what happens when I pay my
1:39
Speaker 1: bill is truly incredible because they take five percent of
1:42
Speaker 1: my bill every month and they give it back to
1:45
Speaker 1: conservative causes and organizations that I help them choose to support.
1:51
Speaker 1: I'm talking about every time I send a message, every
1:53
Speaker 1: time I make a phone call, I am supporting free speech.
1:57
Speaker 1: I'm supporting religious freedom, the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment,
2:01
Speaker 1: as well as our military, our veterans, our first responders,
2:05
Speaker 1: and our wounded warriors.
2:06
Speaker 2: Now why would that matter?
2:08
Speaker 1: Well, Big Mobile that you're with right now has been
2:11
Speaker 1: big proponents of woke ideology, woke agendas, including countless dollars
2:19
Speaker 1: going to Democrats running for local office, state office, even
2:23
Speaker 1: the presidency.
2:24
Speaker 2: They also have.
2:25
Speaker 1: Given big donations to Planned Parenthood. If you're like me
2:29
Speaker 1: and you're tired of giving your mind to people that
2:30
Speaker 1: are fighting against your traditional family values, switch to Patriot
2:34
Speaker 1: Mobile and I'm going to give you free activation right
2:36
Speaker 1: now nine seven to two Patriots the number that's nine
2:40
Speaker 1: seven to two Patriot or Patriotmobile dot com slash ben
2:44
Speaker 1: that's Patriot Mobile dot com slash venue Ben. Use the
2:47
Speaker 1: promo code Ben and you'll get free activation nine seven
2:51
Speaker 1: to two Patriot.
2:52
Speaker 2: That's nine seven to two Patriot. While this is also.
2:55
Speaker 1: Happening, and the reason why I wanted to put this
2:57
Speaker 1: on your radar screen, is there something else that's happening
3:00
Speaker 1: When it comes to the same exact issue this time
3:03
Speaker 1: in Utah, the Utah House has now killed a bill
3:06
Speaker 1: banning the LGBTQ plus pride flags and political views from
3:11
Speaker 1: the classroom. This coming out of Salt Lake City, Utah,
3:15
Speaker 1: teachers will be free to display LGBTQ plus pride flags
3:20
Speaker 1: and other social, political, or religious imagery after the House.
3:25
Speaker 2: The State House blocked a.
3:26
Speaker 1: Bill on Monday that would aband teachers from using their
3:29
Speaker 1: position to promote or disparage certain beliefs. Now let's just
3:33
Speaker 1: talk about that idea real quick, and why the teachers
3:37
Speaker 1: unions are so hell bent and the left is so
3:39
Speaker 1: hell bent on making sure that you and I cannot
3:43
Speaker 1: stop them from basically indoctoring our kids on a multitude
3:47
Speaker 1: of issues in Utah.
3:50
Speaker 2: These teachers unions fought tooth and nail.
3:53
Speaker 1: In the left fought tooth and nail to allow the
3:55
Speaker 1: teachers to put this stuff up.
3:57
Speaker 2: And there was only one reason.
3:59
Speaker 1: These teachers want and desperately need to use their position
4:04
Speaker 1: of power and their monopoly on your kid's mind and
4:08
Speaker 1: a monopoly on your kids classroom to promote certain beliefs.
4:13
Speaker 1: They also want to use their position and have been
4:15
Speaker 1: for years to alter and change this country, and their
4:19
Speaker 1: monopoly on your kid's mind and a monopoly on that
4:22
Speaker 1: classroom to promote positions that they believe in. Now, the
4:28
Speaker 1: Republican led Chamber defeated the proposal in a thirty nine
4:31
Speaker 1: to thirty two vote as they race to address hundreds
4:34
Speaker 1: of outstanding bills during the final week of the twenty
4:37
Speaker 1: twenty four legislative session in Utah. Both Democrats and Republicans
4:41
Speaker 1: criticized the bill's vague language and warned that it could
4:44
Speaker 1: stemy important lessons.
4:45
Speaker 2: In critical thinking. Quote unquote.
4:48
Speaker 1: Educators would have been prohibited under the bill from encouraging
4:53
Speaker 1: a student to reconsider their sexual orientation or gender, and
4:57
Speaker 1: they could have faced punishment for affirming or refusing to
5:01
Speaker 1: affirm a student's identity. Challenging a student's political viewpoints or
5:06
Speaker 1: religious views, even within the context of an educational exercise,
5:12
Speaker 1: also could have left a teacher vulnerable to a lawsuit.
5:15
Speaker 1: There's the reason why they then said, all right, we're
5:17
Speaker 1: going to basically table this slash defeat it.
5:20
Speaker 2: Now.
5:21
Speaker 1: You go back to what happened in Tennessee. Tennessee kept
5:24
Speaker 1: it very simple. What Tennessee said instated was you can't
5:28
Speaker 1: put these flags up there. You can't put flags up
5:32
Speaker 1: there pushing for certain things. That's not our job, right.
5:36
Speaker 1: Our job is not to basically use the classroom as
5:40
Speaker 1: a bully pulpit for the teacher's ideology and or the
5:45
Speaker 1: teacher's viewpoint.
5:46
Speaker 2: That is not our job. Now.
5:48
Speaker 1: Some teachers back in Utah, they pleaded with lawmakers earlier
5:53
Speaker 1: this month to reject the bill, which they say would
5:56
Speaker 1: have made them afraid to speak openly in the classroom.
6:00
Speaker 1: Couldn't disagree more with that, by the way, that's their
6:02
Speaker 1: fear mongering. The bill's primary sponsor, however, encourage educators of
6:07
Speaker 1: view it as a tool to improve trust in the
6:09
Speaker 1: state's education system by the parents and the taxpayers knowing
6:15
Speaker 1: that you're not sitting there all day long and doctrinating
6:17
Speaker 1: a kid in your ideology. Teachers they that said then
6:22
Speaker 1: claim they would have had to been quote more careful.
6:24
Speaker 1: Are the same teachers that have the gay pride flags
6:27
Speaker 1: up in their classroom, which is something that should not
6:30
Speaker 1: be up in the classroom in my viewpoint.
6:33
Speaker 2: Now you go to Washington, d C.
6:35
Speaker 1: And the Hill newspaper is warning elected officials about this.
6:39
Speaker 1: Right now, the Tennessee House has passed a stringent restrictions
6:45
Speaker 1: bill on pride flags in school That is what the
6:49
Speaker 1: headline reads, and they're warning the nation now, this could
6:52
Speaker 1: be something that could happen nationwide. I'm encouraging you to
6:56
Speaker 1: do this nationwide. Tennessee is a Republican controlled house. The
6:59
Speaker 1: Hill Rights voted Monday to approve legislation that would largely
7:03
Speaker 1: prevent pride flags from being displayed in public school classrooms.
7:07
Speaker 1: Seeing the measure of the Senate, where it is expected
7:09
Speaker 1: to pass the measure.
7:10
Speaker 2: House Bills sixteen oh five.
7:12
Speaker 1: Would prohibit local education agencies from displaying flags other than
7:17
Speaker 1: the United States flag in the Tennessee state flag in
7:19
Speaker 1: public schools, which is exactly what I said a moment ago.
7:22
Speaker 1: This is all that we should be advocating for period.
7:26
Speaker 1: It would allow schools to display the pow Mia flag
7:31
Speaker 1: missing an action, a flag that represents a city or
7:35
Speaker 1: metropolitan government, or an official school flag, among other exceptions.
7:41
Speaker 1: While the bill does not mention LGBTQ Pride flag's outright GOP,
7:46
Speaker 1: state lawmakers have said it is meant to restrict them.
7:50
Speaker 1: Republican state Representative Geno Bulso, the bill's primary sponsor in
7:54
Speaker 1: the House, on Monday, city draft of the bill after
7:56
Speaker 1: several parents and one school board member in his district
7:59
Speaker 1: complained that serve and teachers and counselors were displaying large
8:03
Speaker 1: Pride flags in their classroom despite objections from the parents.
8:06
Speaker 1: Because remember these socialists and Marxists, okay, that are educating
8:11
Speaker 1: your kids. They don't believe that you have rights over
8:14
Speaker 1: your kids. They believe the state owned your kids. That's
8:17
Speaker 1: what communism and socialism believes.
8:20
Speaker 2: Right.
8:20
Speaker 1: There's no parent to right that really is it should
8:24
Speaker 1: matter the parents don't have rights over their kids. We've
8:27
Speaker 1: seen this happen in schools all over the country. Let
8:30
Speaker 1: me also remind you the same federal government is under
8:34
Speaker 1: the Biden administration, classified parents that are showing up to
8:38
Speaker 1: school board meetings as domestic terrorists if they disagreed with
8:41
Speaker 1: what the school board was doing, which was actually covering
8:44
Speaker 1: up assaults of children by students that quote identified as transgender,
8:48
Speaker 1: that were really dudes with a penis in a girl's bathroom.
8:52
Speaker 1: And when parents got angry that there was a child
8:55
Speaker 1: that was assaulted, for example, and then that child was
8:58
Speaker 1: not punished but moved another school, and then that child
9:00
Speaker 1: assaulted another girl in another bathroom in another school.
9:05
Speaker 2: Then it came to light and parents got enraged.
9:07
Speaker 1: And what happened when the parents showed up at the
9:09
Speaker 1: angry school board meetings, they declared they were domestic terrorists,
9:12
Speaker 1: no different than al Qaeda. This is an important opportunity
9:17
Speaker 1: for us to seize a moment, go to our state
9:20
Speaker 1: legislatures and say we do not want political advocacy in
9:26
Speaker 1: the classroom, especially by a teacher that has a monopoly
9:30
Speaker 1: over our kids' minds for hours on end.
9:33
Speaker 2: During the day number one.
9:35
Speaker 1: The Tennessee Democrats, of course, responded by arguing that this
9:38
Speaker 1: bill disparaged the rights of LGBTQ parents and parents who support.
9:43
Speaker 2: The LGBTQQ community. That's not true.
9:46
Speaker 1: Pro family flags wouldn't be allowed, or traditional family flags
9:49
Speaker 1: or traditional marriage flags, or the Christian flag or church
9:52
Speaker 1: flags wouldn't be allowed in the classroom either. A Donald
9:54
Speaker 1: Trump flag would not be allowed, a Joe Biden flag
9:57
Speaker 1: wouldn't be allowed.
9:58
Speaker 2: Because at school, we shouldn't be doing this.
10:00
Speaker 1: We should be teaching reading, teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic.
10:05
Speaker 2: They also argued this that it would also fuel a.
10:07
Speaker 1: Stigma against LGBTQ people, particularly students.
10:11
Speaker 2: They said, I think that's total crap as well.
10:14
Speaker 1: Quote it seems a genuine concern behind the bill is
10:16
Speaker 1: better described as preventing social representation or a sense of
10:20
Speaker 1: belonging in one's community. That's what's a state representative, a
10:23
Speaker 1: national Democrat said about this bill, I couldn't disagree more.
10:30
Speaker 2: This is all about indoctrinating.
10:32
Speaker 1: Your child, and wherever you live in the country, you
10:35
Speaker 1: really should pay attention to this. You should be calling
10:39
Speaker 1: your city council members, you should be calling your state legislators.
10:43
Speaker 1: You should be calling your elected officials and demanding that
10:46
Speaker 1: they get rid of all political advocacy flags in the
10:50
Speaker 1: public schools.
10:52
Speaker 2: I want to also move to another story real quick.
10:55
Speaker 1: That is an important one, and there are a lot
10:58
Speaker 1: of people that haven't been touched the story.
11:00
Speaker 2: I actually think that that is a mistake.
11:02
Speaker 1: I think when you cover a story, for example, like
11:06
Speaker 1: the Biden crime family, and something happens that doesn't quote
11:10
Speaker 1: look good for the Republican side, I actually don't think
11:13
Speaker 1: we should run away from it. I think we should
11:15
Speaker 1: talk about it and see if it is actually really
11:17
Speaker 1: bad news or if it's propaganda coming in from our government.
11:23
Speaker 1: Now you may have seen that Democrats have been losing
11:26
Speaker 1: their minds over the last week as an ex FBI informant,
11:31
Speaker 1: Alexander Smirnoff has been accused of lying about the Bidens.
11:37
Speaker 1: We also have another headline from ABC News hunter Biden
11:41
Speaker 1: informant charged with line had high level Russian contacts and documents.
11:48
Speaker 1: ABC News ran with this story and I want you
11:52
Speaker 1: to hear what they said. And the reason why I'm
11:53
Speaker 1: going to play this for you is because I'm going
11:55
Speaker 1: to let you hear what James camer and Jim Jordan
11:58
Speaker 1: had to say about this story.
11:59
Speaker 2: But listen to this leading the news.
12:02
Speaker 1: Okay, ABC News, this is the right good news for
12:05
Speaker 1: the Biden's, bad news for the Republicans, bad news for impeachment. Right,
12:09
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's informant, you know, re arrested days after release
12:13
Speaker 1: by a court is another headline. Hunter Biden's lawyer suggests
12:16
Speaker 1: this case is tainted by claims of an ex FBI informant.
12:20
Speaker 2: Line.
12:20
Speaker 1: Right, these are all the headlines, and there's a lot
12:24
Speaker 1: of conservatives that have just been completely silent on this,
12:27
Speaker 1: and that's the wrong play. I want to talk about it,
12:31
Speaker 1: and I'm going to explain to you both sides of this.
12:33
Speaker 1: I'm going to start with what the Democrats are trying
12:35
Speaker 1: to sell you. Listen carefully to ABC News when they
12:38
Speaker 1: broke in with this big news.
12:40
Speaker 3: The former FBI informant charged with lying about President Biden
12:44
Speaker 3: and his son Hunter and Ukraine. That former informant in
12:47
Speaker 3: court late today. The informant who made claims but Hunter
12:50
Speaker 3: Biden and his father, Alexander Smirnoff is his name, and
12:53
Speaker 3: tonight with authorities now say the informant has told them
12:56
Speaker 3: about his connections to Russian intelligence officials, who he says, we're.
13:00
Speaker 2: Feeding him information.
13:02
Speaker 3: Late tonight, the Special Council saying he must be kept
13:04
Speaker 3: behind bars, arguing he is a flight risk. Here's our
13:07
Speaker 3: Chief Justice course by the peer Thomas leading us off tonight.
13:10
Speaker 4: Tonight, federal prosecutors say the former FBI informant accused of
13:15
Speaker 4: spreading lines about Joe and Hunter Biden, has admitted that
13:18
Speaker 4: officials associated with Russian intelligence were involved in passing a
13:22
Speaker 4: story about the President's son. The informant, Alexander Spiredov, was
13:26
Speaker 4: arrested last week and is being charged with lyne to
13:30
Speaker 4: the FBI, claiming that the Bidens accepted a five million
13:33
Speaker 4: dollar bride from Barisma, the Ukrainian energy company where Hunter
13:37
Speaker 4: Biden once sat on the board. House Republicans have used
13:41
Speaker 4: that story as a justification in their efforts to impeach
13:44
Speaker 4: President Biden, Prosecutors now calling it a fabrication. In a
13:48
Speaker 4: new court filing, Special Council David Weiss described Spiritoff as
13:52
Speaker 4: a longtime FBI informant of ten years who spoke with
13:55
Speaker 4: his handler nearly every day, and alarmingly, they note that
13:59
Speaker 4: his efforts spread misinformation about a candidate of one of
14:02
Speaker 4: the two major parties in the United States continues. In fact,
14:06
Speaker 4: Special Council White's claims that Spirinoff was actively peddling new
14:10
Speaker 4: lies that could impact US elections after meeting with Russian
14:13
Speaker 4: intelligence officials in November. Tonight, Smirnoff is asking a judge
14:18
Speaker 4: to release him pending trial, but prosecutors called him a
14:21
Speaker 4: flight risk, saying he has access to more than six
14:24
Speaker 4: million dollars and noting that his ties to foreign intelligence
14:28
Speaker 4: agencies could resettle him outside the United States if he
14:31
Speaker 4: were released. The Special Council believes Spinoff is a flight
14:36
Speaker 4: risk and wanted him in jail pending trial, but tonight
14:39
Speaker 4: a federal judges or in Spinoff released under strict conditions.
14:43
Speaker 4: He must give up his passport, he must wear an
14:45
Speaker 4: ankle monitor, and he is not allowed to travel overseas.
14:49
Speaker 1: David, Now I play that for you because I want
14:52
Speaker 1: you to understand the media's propaganda.
14:55
Speaker 2: Here.
14:56
Speaker 1: They started ABC World News tonight with this story. They
15:01
Speaker 1: never start ABC World News tonight with de Muir with
15:05
Speaker 1: a story that's negative towards Joe Biden, or towards Hunter Biden,
15:09
Speaker 1: or towards the Biden crime family.
15:11
Speaker 2: They don't break in with a Hunter Biden laptop. They
15:13
Speaker 2: say it's different's information.
15:16
Speaker 1: They do break in, however, and give you their big
15:18
Speaker 1: story when it was the fifty intelligence individuals that lied
15:21
Speaker 1: to you about the Hunter Biden laptop, claiming it was
15:23
Speaker 1: rushing this information campaign.
15:25
Speaker 2: But now this is the first piece of good.
15:28
Speaker 1: News and the Biden crime family investigation, and so therefore
15:32
Speaker 1: what you're witnessing right now is they are going all
15:36
Speaker 1: in to try to imply that this entire investigation is
15:40
Speaker 1: now completely made up and completely tainted. Which brings me
15:46
Speaker 1: to the other side of this. Maria Bartiromo set down
15:51
Speaker 1: with Jim Jordan and James Comer for an exclusive one
15:56
Speaker 1: on one interview with both men side by side. I
15:59
Speaker 1: want you to hear what they had to say about
16:01
Speaker 1: this latest development and what I just played you, and how.
16:04
Speaker 2: The media is covering this as front page news.
16:06
Speaker 5: Listen carefully, Chairman Comer, your Democrat colleagues are mocking the investigation.
16:11
Speaker 5: You know that they say it's all Russian disinformation. So
16:15
Speaker 5: give us your take on mister Smirnoff now being indicted
16:20
Speaker 5: and saying that Russian passed on the story. And I
16:23
Speaker 5: also want to get your take on this latest information
16:27
Speaker 5: that you have gotten from mister Galanis, who is still
16:30
Speaker 5: in prison.
16:31
Speaker 6: Yeah, all we know you about Thronoff was the ten
16:35
Speaker 6: twenty three allegation. We knew from FBI swortses that the
16:38
Speaker 6: FBI had never investigated it, and all we knew was
16:41
Speaker 6: what Christopher Ray told us that this informant was one
16:46
Speaker 6: of their most trusted and highest paid in the bureau
16:48
Speaker 6: and he had been in that position for over ten years.
16:51
Speaker 6: So that's all we knew about him. He wasn't an
16:53
Speaker 6: important part of the case, but it was a tip
16:56
Speaker 6: that we should investigate. We are not going to leave
16:58
Speaker 6: any stone unturned. We're going to invest gate every allegation
17:01
Speaker 6: of Biden influence peddling with respect to Galanis. The individual
17:06
Speaker 6: we interviewed this past Friday. What we learned was very
17:10
Speaker 6: similar to what Tony Bobolinski said, that he was familiar
17:15
Speaker 6: with the CEFC deal. He knew that Joe Biden played
17:19
Speaker 6: an integral role in helping set this up, that this
17:22
Speaker 6: deal was set up when Joe Biden was vice president,
17:26
Speaker 6: and that they believe the Chinese believed that Joe Biden
17:29
Speaker 6: was going to be an equity owner in this Just
17:31
Speaker 6: like what we saw with AmeriCorps Health. This is how
17:34
Speaker 6: the Biden sold the brand. They didn't just use Joe
17:37
Speaker 6: Biden as a crutch. They used Joe Biden as a
17:40
Speaker 6: potential board member, as a potential equity owner, and that's
17:44
Speaker 6: how they were able to receive tens of millions of
17:47
Speaker 6: dollars from our enemies around the world.
17:50
Speaker 5: So what do you think was most egregious or important
17:54
Speaker 5: for us to understand about the testimony you took from
17:57
Speaker 5: Gallanis who was sitting in an Alabama prison.
18:00
Speaker 6: Well, there are three people now, three former associates. There
18:04
Speaker 6: aren't that many former Biden associates, but we now have
18:08
Speaker 6: three that have testified that Joe spoke with all the
18:12
Speaker 6: principles that we're sending money mysteriously to the Biden shell
18:16
Speaker 6: companies that were then being laundered down to the Biden
18:19
Speaker 6: family members. Three different people that have said now that
18:22
Speaker 6: Joe was going to be involved in some type of
18:24
Speaker 6: ownership arrangement.
18:26
Speaker 2: This is a pattern, and.
18:27
Speaker 6: It didn't just happen with the CEFC deal in China.
18:30
Speaker 6: It also happened with the AmeriCorps scam with the healthcare
18:34
Speaker 6: company in Florida. So we're establishing a pattern here of
18:38
Speaker 6: not only influence peddling, but also of Joe Biden's involvement
18:42
Speaker 6: in the influence peddling schemes.
18:44
Speaker 5: Chairman Jordan, I find it really stunning that Smirnoff gets
18:48
Speaker 5: indicted and they say that it's because he got information
18:52
Speaker 5: from Russians and it was not true, and yet Christopher
18:55
Speaker 5: Steel is.
18:56
Speaker 2: Still out there.
18:57
Speaker 5: There has been no accountability whatsoever. You all have been
19:00
Speaker 5: unable to pin anybody down about what we know to
19:03
Speaker 5: be true. Now that the Russia collusion story was a
19:05
Speaker 5: lie and that Stele dossier was made up, how come
19:08
Speaker 5: Christopher Steel was never indicted?
19:10
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, Kennedy, and he continued to get paid after
19:13
Speaker 7: they found out what he told the FBI wasn't true.
19:15
Speaker 7: And of course now we have this smearoff guy and
19:17
Speaker 7: he gets indicted and arrested not once, but twice. Here's
19:22
Speaker 7: the interesting thing about Smirnoff. David Weiss, the guy who's
19:25
Speaker 7: been investigating Hunter Biden for now almost five years.
19:28
Speaker 2: David Weiss had this.
19:29
Speaker 7: Information the ten twenty three back in twenty twenty. What
19:33
Speaker 7: did he do for the last three years? What did
19:35
Speaker 7: he do for the last three and a half years.
19:37
Speaker 7: Why didn't he look into it before? Because all we
19:39
Speaker 7: knew is what Cherry macomber just said. Christopher Ray said,
19:41
Speaker 7: this was a great source, confidential human source that we've
19:45
Speaker 7: been paying for fourteen years. He's helped put away bad guys.
19:49
Speaker 7: The safety of him is jeopardized if we give the
19:51
Speaker 7: access to this ten twenty three and now maybe the
19:54
Speaker 7: guy did lie. I don't know, but it seems strange
19:57
Speaker 7: to me because it looks like David Weiss didn't do
19:59
Speaker 7: a darn with this until after the plea deal falls
20:03
Speaker 7: apart last July, because if you read the indictment, is
20:06
Speaker 7: when in July is when they go talk to the
20:07
Speaker 7: confidential human sources handler and start this process that ultimately
20:11
Speaker 7: led to his arrest.
20:12
Speaker 2: So we'll have to see.
20:13
Speaker 7: The other thing is, as you point out, in twenty sixteen,
20:16
Speaker 7: it was Trump Russian clusion, we found out that was garbage.
20:19
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty it.
20:20
Speaker 7: Was oh, the laptops of Russian Information Operation.
20:23
Speaker 2: We knew that was garbage.
20:25
Speaker 7: And now here we go the third time, one more
20:27
Speaker 7: time they're bringing out this story again. Maybe this Smirnoff
20:30
Speaker 7: guy did like toilim. We'll have to see. But there's
20:33
Speaker 7: a lot of questions that I think many people have
20:35
Speaker 7: about how it was all dealt with.
20:37
Speaker 5: We're going to connect the dots to the national security threat.
20:40
Speaker 1: Here, But Truman, this is exactly the reason why we
20:43
Speaker 1: shouldn't be afraid of these stories when they come out,
20:46
Speaker 1: is because when you listen to what James Comer had
20:48
Speaker 1: to say, and then you listen to like, hey, why
20:51
Speaker 1: didn't they arrest him several years ago? Why is it
20:54
Speaker 1: only now that they're arresting him? And then Jim Jordan
20:58
Speaker 1: comes in and says he continued to get paid after
21:01
Speaker 1: they found out what he told the FBI wasn't true.
21:04
Speaker 1: And of course now we have this smartof guy and
21:08
Speaker 1: he gets and died and arrested not once but twice.
21:12
Speaker 1: And he goes through this guy's history. So am I
21:15
Speaker 1: concerned about this?
21:16
Speaker 2: I'm not.
21:18
Speaker 1: If he lied to them, does that change the case?
21:22
Speaker 1: It shouldn't based on the facts we have right now.
21:27
Speaker 1: Let me say one other thing real quick about what
21:29
Speaker 1: I was just talking about with James Comber and Jim
21:31
Speaker 1: Jordan this investigation. Expect there to be more things like
21:36
Speaker 1: this that come out. If people are getting arrested to
21:40
Speaker 1: undermine their testimony and what they've said that shouldn't surprise
21:45
Speaker 1: you at all, based on what we've just witnessed with
21:47
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. None of this should surprise you, just based
21:51
Speaker 1: on what we've seen with how they're treating political adversaries
21:56
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party.
21:58
Speaker 2: So when there is.
21:59
Speaker 1: Something like this, it comes out and there will be more.
22:02
Speaker 1: I'm just going to tell you that in the weeks ahead,
22:04
Speaker 1: as they try to save Joe Biden, know that when
22:08
Speaker 1: you see the headline they're leading with it, they're probably
22:11
Speaker 1: lying to you or trying to manipulate you into believing something.
22:17
Speaker 1: Keep digging and I'm going to bring it to you
22:19
Speaker 1: every day. But the rest of the media, many Republicans
22:21
Speaker 1: just kind of walked away from the story. And I'm like, guys,
22:23
Speaker 1: this is not a bad story for us. Tell the
22:26
Speaker 1: truth of what's happening here and explain why it's happening,
22:29
Speaker 1: and don't just run away from it because the headline
22:31
Speaker 1: looks like, oh, it might be bad news for Republicans
22:34
Speaker 1: who are going after Joe Biden. Look into the story,
22:38
Speaker 1: ask questions, ask questions about why it's happening now, and
22:43
Speaker 1: ask questions the same way that Jim Jordan and James
22:47
Speaker 1: Cummerson whine they had died him two three years ago
22:50
Speaker 1: because it's the political operation.
22:52
Speaker 2: Now.
22:53
Speaker 1: Also something else that I have to make sure you
22:56
Speaker 1: know about, and there's a big trip coming up to
22:58
Speaker 1: the southern border. Governor of Texas Center Ted Cruz, former
23:03
Speaker 1: President Donald Trump are going to the border.
23:05
Speaker 2: This is going to be a very big moment in
23:07
Speaker 2: this presidential.
23:08
Speaker 1: Campaign cycle and this Senate and House cycle, with this
23:11
Speaker 1: presidential election year. They're going to the border as things
23:15
Speaker 1: are continuing to get out of control and more people
23:18
Speaker 1: are dying every day from fentnyl overnesses than we've ever
23:21
Speaker 1: had before. The Republican National Committee put together what they
23:26
Speaker 1: refer to as a chronicled evolution of Joe Biden's Border
23:32
Speaker 1: lies in a new montage. This took I can't even
23:36
Speaker 1: imagine how many hours.
23:37
Speaker 2: To put together.
23:39
Speaker 1: But it's entitled the Evolution of Biden's Border Lies, and
23:43
Speaker 1: I'm going to play it for you because it's four
23:45
Speaker 1: minutes of Joe Biden not just lying to you, but
23:49
Speaker 1: changing his story while lying to you. And I hope
23:53
Speaker 1: that every one of you, when you hear this, will
23:55
Speaker 1: share this with your family, with your friends, with your colleagues,
23:59
Speaker 1: because this is excellent work done by the Republican National Committee.
24:04
Speaker 1: Take a listen again. This is the R and C
24:07
Speaker 1: from beginning to end, chronicling the lies and the evolution
24:10
Speaker 1: of Biden's border lies.
24:12
Speaker 2: In one video.
24:13
Speaker 8: It happens every single solitary year, there is a significant
24:20
Speaker 8: increase the number of people coming to the border in
24:23
Speaker 8: the winter months of January, February, March.
24:28
Speaker 2: That happens every year.
24:29
Speaker 5: That's a record that suttons to most folks like a crisis.
24:32
Speaker 8: Well, look it's way down now, we've now gotten control.
24:36
Speaker 2: We're making progress. But it's not going to evidence itself overnight.
24:41
Speaker 2: It will not. We're the vice president on any of this.
24:44
Speaker 6: Isn't she supposed to be addressing the root causes of migration?
24:47
Speaker 8: Absolutely, and she has been addressing the root causes of migration,
24:50
Speaker 8: but actually seeing some reductions in some of those numbers.
24:53
Speaker 2: Do you have lands to visit the southern border.
24:55
Speaker 8: I've been there before, I haven't. I mean, I know it, well,
24:59
Speaker 8: I guess I should go down. But the whole point
25:02
Speaker 8: of it is, I haven't had a whole hell of
25:04
Speaker 8: a lot of time to get down. You notice you're
25:06
Speaker 8: not seeing a lot of pictures of kids lying on
25:08
Speaker 8: top of one another with you know, with with with
25:11
Speaker 8: with black with you know, it looks like PARPs on
25:15
Speaker 8: top of it.
25:16
Speaker 2: Here here's the way I see it. We've got to
25:19
Speaker 2: deal with the root.
25:21
Speaker 9: Causes in addition to what are the effects.
25:24
Speaker 2: Right now, my focus has been on the root cos.
25:27
Speaker 5: We are certainly focused on continuing to assert order at
25:32
Speaker 5: the border.
25:32
Speaker 10: If we have effectively managed an unprecedented number of non
25:36
Speaker 10: citizens seeking to enter the United States, I think that
25:39
Speaker 10: we are doing a good job to.
25:41
Speaker 6: Night people across this border for the first time.
25:43
Speaker 3: You're confident of this border security.
25:47
Speaker 2: We have.
25:49
Speaker 9: A secure border and that that is a priority for
25:53
Speaker 9: any nation, including hours in our administration.
25:56
Speaker 2: What is that solution?
25:57
Speaker 11: Can you understand the frustration though that America and have
26:00
Speaker 11: about the situation at the border.
26:04
Speaker 9: It's not a monolist there are very there are a
26:07
Speaker 9: variety of components to this.
26:09
Speaker 2: Do you continue to maintain that the border is secure?
26:13
Speaker 10: Yes, and we are working day in and day out
26:16
Speaker 10: to enhance its security.
26:18
Speaker 8: Comment so the border were more important and go around.
26:21
Speaker 10: We're executing a comprehensive strategy to secure our borders and
26:26
Speaker 10: build a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system.
26:30
Speaker 9: As we advance our efforts to address the root causes
26:33
Speaker 9: of migration, our administration is simultaneously working to ensure a safe, orderly,
26:40
Speaker 9: and humane processing system at the borders.
26:43
Speaker 10: By that definition, no administration has ever had operational control.
26:49
Speaker 10: So the way I define it is maximizing the resources
26:52
Speaker 10: that we have to deliver the most effective results, and
26:56
Speaker 10: we are indeed doing that. It is my testimony that
26:59
Speaker 10: the order is secure.
27:01
Speaker 2: Things are going to at the border.
27:02
Speaker 7: Sir my Brandon, you all expected.
27:07
Speaker 2: Do you have any plans to the border? I think, pardon,
27:10
Speaker 2: do you have any plans to visit the border? Not
27:13
Speaker 2: in your term?
27:14
Speaker 10: Now, our approach to managing the borders securely and humanely,
27:18
Speaker 10: even within our fundamentally broken immigration system, is working.
27:22
Speaker 11: We have seen his border plan management be effective and
27:25
Speaker 11: so we have taken actions. But again, this happens at
27:28
Speaker 11: ebbs and flows. That's what we see at the border
27:30
Speaker 11: for different trends, for different reasons. And what we're seeing
27:33
Speaker 11: here at the border the migration flow, increased migration flow, certainly,
27:39
Speaker 11: you know it ebbs and flows, and we're at a
27:41
Speaker 11: time of the year where we're seeing more at the border,
27:44
Speaker 11: and it's not unusual at all I can do.
27:47
Speaker 2: Give me the power? Are that because we're very day.
27:49
Speaker 2: I got it all giving the border control.
27:53
Speaker 7: There the people digiting, the big of the drudge Gary,
27:55
Speaker 7: the people just stop. This price of work.
27:58
Speaker 11: We're seeing at the is ebbs and flows and how
28:03
Speaker 11: many migrants arrive at the border is something that happens
28:05
Speaker 11: every year. It ebbs and.
28:06
Speaker 8: Flows for much too long. As you all know. The
28:08
Speaker 8: immigration system isn't broken. This long pastime to fix it.
28:13
Speaker 9: We need help.
28:14
Speaker 8: Why won't they give me the health all this time
28:17
Speaker 8: of mouth, I sorry about about the border.
28:19
Speaker 6: It's out of control.
28:24
Speaker 2: You listen to those lies.
28:26
Speaker 1: I gotta say well done to the RNC for chronicling this.
28:30
Speaker 2: This four minute audio I just played for you.
28:34
Speaker 1: Shows the footage of the Biden and top ranking officials
28:37
Speaker 1: of vis administration from twenty twenty one, twenty two, twenty
28:41
Speaker 1: twenty three, with many claiming that the border is under control.
28:46
Speaker 1: You go back to one of those clips from March
28:48
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one, Biden claimed his administration had quote
28:51
Speaker 1: gotten control after an influx of migrants in the previous months,
28:56
Speaker 1: and a part of this audio I just played for you.
28:59
Speaker 2: In September twenty twenty two.
29:00
Speaker 1: In that interview with NBC News Meet the Press, the
29:03
Speaker 1: Vice President Kaalah Harris said, quote, we have a secure border.
29:10
Speaker 1: She also said America's immigration system is broken during the interview,
29:14
Speaker 1: but it was a controlled and a secured border.
29:18
Speaker 2: That's what she said. It's a secure border.
29:22
Speaker 1: The video also includes footage of Department of Homeland Security
29:25
Speaker 1: Secretary Alejandro maorc Is testifying under oath in November of
29:30
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two that the border is secure and we
29:36
Speaker 1: are working day in and day out to enhance its security.
29:41
Speaker 1: And then again he lied to you in April of
29:44
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. My arc has said it is my
29:48
Speaker 1: testimony that the border is secure.
29:51
Speaker 2: That was under oath.
29:53
Speaker 1: You look at the end of this video and includes
29:56
Speaker 1: that clip from February of this year, earlier this month
30:01
Speaker 1: showing Biden saying, for much too long his words, as
30:05
Speaker 1: you all know, the immigration system has been broken.
30:07
Speaker 2: In it's long pastime to fix it.
30:10
Speaker 1: That comment cames days after the release of the Senate
30:13
Speaker 1: pro immigration border bill that ultimately collapse submitted resounding opposition
30:19
Speaker 1: from Republicans. Many Republicans contended that Biden had has the
30:25
Speaker 1: power to address the border through executive action, if he
30:27
Speaker 1: just went back to exactly what Donald Trump was doing.
30:31
Speaker 1: The RNC chairwoman who's just resigned, Ronald McDaniel, slammed Biden
30:37
Speaker 1: in a statement, saying this, Joe Biden ignored the southern
30:41
Speaker 1: border and denied that a crisis existed for years, but
30:44
Speaker 1: now he's pretending to change his tune when it's politically convenient.
30:48
Speaker 1: There's no doubt Biden's open border policies have led to
30:51
Speaker 1: criminals entering our country, deadly fetnol in our communities in
30:55
Speaker 1: an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. No matter how he spends it,
31:00
Speaker 1: every state is a border state under Joe Biden. I
31:03
Speaker 1: hope all of you will take what I just played
31:05
Speaker 1: for you and share it on social media. Please share
31:08
Speaker 1: it wherever you can, and I'll see you back here
31:12
Speaker 1: tomorrow
