  Speaker 1: Welcome. It is Vernict with center, Ted Kruz, Ben Ferguson
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with you, and uh, we got a country to say.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: I am under the weather. So if I sound a
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: little bit lower key, I want you to know why,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Senator you're beating me today.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: You're somewhat under the weather. But I think you've got
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: more energy than I do. Well, I think that's probably right.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: But but but hopefully neither of us cough cough up
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: along and we can we can talk about the great
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: things that that that that are happening in this country,
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: that are are really threatening our nation, and and that
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: gives you reason to fight even when you may not
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: feel great.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Amen to that. We've got a very interesting subject that
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: has popped up, and that deals with Kamala Harris. Well,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Kamala's radical past keeps coming back to haunt her. She's
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: trying to run a presidential campaign pretending not to be
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: a radical leftist, and the problem is truth keeps getting
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: in the way. We now have video and audio of
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: her at a rally chanting down with deportation and amazingly
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: doing it right next to discredited hustler Jesse Smolette, and
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: they're chatting with the whole mob. Up with education, down
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: with deportation. It's really quite remarkable. We're going to talk
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: about that. We're also going to talk about a story
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: unlike any I've ever seen before, which is Ukraine's president
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Zelenski came to Pennsylvania and is essentially campaigning for Kamala
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Harris and he's attacking Donald Trump and JD. Vance. It
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: is shocking. I do not recall ever seeing a foreign
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: leader do this. It's infuriating. We're going to talk about
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: that too. And finally, we're going to talk about a
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: hearing yesterday in the Senate Judiciary Committee where the Senate
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Democrats once again are attacking the US Supreme Court. And
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: this hearing was all about the Supreme Court's decision on
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: presidential immunity, and they're trying to wrongly convince the voters
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: that it's some sort of outrageous decision that allows Trump
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: to do whatever he wants. That is a lie. We're
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: going to talk about that hearing and what the actual
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: truth is.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very interesting to see that to take place there,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and we'll chat about that in a moment. I want
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to tell you real quick about Ammo squared. Ammo squared
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: is amazing. If you love to shoot, you're gonna love
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: what I'm about to tell you about Amo squared because
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it is the easiest way to stock up on ammunition
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: at a great price and never have to worry about
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: not being able to find Ammo. Ever, again, there were
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of people during COVID where you couldn't find
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Amo and the price of Ammo went through the roof.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Ammo Squared helps ensure that you have Ammo when you
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: need it, and it's an automatic approach to purchasing Ammo
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: on any budget. It's simple. You pick your calibers, you
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: set your budget, you select a shipping trigger, and that's it.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Your Ammo grows slowly over time. And here's the other
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: big perk for me. It's stored for free as it
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: builds up, and then it's shipped with a click of
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: a button or automatically on your schedule whatever you want
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to do. Now, unlike a traditional subscription service, you aren't
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: forced into a set budget or a monthly shipment. You
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: decide your budget and chang any time you want to,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: and you schedule when you want your AMMO to arrive.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Ammo squared also offers nearly seventy different caliber options. So
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: maybe you have a hard time finding unique calibers for
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: your collection. Not anymore with Amo squared, and each shipment
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: can take a carefully curated mix of factory new ammunition
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: from brands that you know and love. It's budget friendly, customizable,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: buy as little as a few dollars a month, and
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: use costs dollar averaging to your advantage. Now, if you
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: ever want to trade out a caliber, maybe you switch firearms,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: not a problem. You can trade it back in for
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: another caliber. And if prices go through the roof and
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: you ever want to sell your AMMO back, you can
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: do it for big profits. There's no minimum to buy,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: no memberships needed, and no extra fees. Customers can buy
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: AMMO on a small budget and watch it grow. Sign
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: up today and I'm gonna give you free AMMO in
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: your account amosquared dot com slash ben ammosquared dot com
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: slash bend today and you're gonna get free AMMO in
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: your account. So center if you go back, and it's
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: amazing how many of these video start to surface here
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and the media clearly isn't doing their job. You've got
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: this video and it's Kamala Harris. She's straight up out there,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: she's very proud of it, shouting she's down, she's not
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: down with deportations at this rally. And when you see
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: this resurface video of her protesting against deporting migrants with
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: a disgraced celebrity, you go, man, I wonder how long
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the media had this and they decide to sit on it.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Well clearly that they don't want people to see it,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: and and and give a listen. You need to listen
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: to what Kamala Harris, the sitting vice president and someone
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: who right who wants to be president of the United States,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: what she was happily chanting with the mob on the street.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I mean there it is up up with education, down,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: down with deportation, saying we're not deporting anybody.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: This is what she believes. Believe her when she says it.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you watch the video, they're all dancing joyously.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I mean it is. These are a bunch of radicals.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: They support open borders. Kamala Harris is a radical. She
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: supports open borders. She always has. She's always voted for
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: open borders. She's always advocated for open borders, and right
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: now her strategy is to try to lie to the
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: American people. She is literally right now spending millions of
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: dollars running ads TV ads with video of Trump's border wall,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: something she's opposed from day one, But for the next
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: six weeks on the campaign trail, she is going to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: pretend that that she's all for securing the border and
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: all for deportation, unless God forbid, she wins, and then
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: you're gonna discover the open borders we've had in the
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: last four years, they're just getting started, and they're only
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: getting worse.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Well, and you talk about that just a straight up lying.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: You know, her new ad shows Trump's wall, which she
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: said was inhumane and that she would tear down and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: never allow and it should never be allowed to be built.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Now apparently she's in favor of it, but she's obviously not.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: She's just trying to buy votes because she understands it's
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: a liability what's going on at the southern border right now,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and how every city in America has become a border city,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and every liberal city that was a sanctuary city has
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: now turned into a total disaster. And then you see
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: this video come back out, or this video come back up.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: That they were a guest trying to hide because it's
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: not popular right now. And you know what she believes center, Like,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: it's very clear she wants to flood the border with
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants if she is elected president. And this also
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: comes as a new report has come out talking about
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: how Mexico has launched a massive operation through which migrants
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: are intercepted and apprehended in northern States, brought to the
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: corner of the country furthest from the US border, then
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: process and released. As the Washington Post summarized it, quote
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: aided by the military agents, added checkpoints on the highways,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: and ramped up searches of trains and buses. In the
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: first half of twenty twenty four, Mexico log seven hundred
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: and twelve thousand apprehensions, nearly triple the number in the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: same period last year. And what we're being told now
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: is this all came out of the deal with Biden
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Harris when they had that meeting with the leadership in Mexico, Like, hey,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: right before election day, we need the number of border
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: crossings to drop. Can you guys help us out? And
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: now we know the plan is actually working very well
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: in Mexico.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Well and listen. There is a reason that the left
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: is not upset with Kamala because they know this is
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: who she is. They know this is what she believes.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: She's been the borders are for four years. If she's president,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: the open borders get worse. The eleven and a half
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: million illegal aliens becomes twenty million, becomes thirty million. That
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: is their plan to fundamentally change the American electorate. They
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: view all of them as future Democrat voters, some voting
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: illegally immediately and some voting when Democrats seize control and
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: give them amnesty. That is their plan. And nobody, you know,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: the radicals who were dancing in the street with Kamala
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: chanting down with deportation, they're not upset with Kamala's ads
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: with the border wall. Why is that because they know
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: she's lying. They're perfectly happy for her to lie to
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: the voters. And they think the voters are gullible enough
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: that they'll be like, oh, oh, she agrees with me
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: on border security. I gotta say, I don't think the
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: American people are nearly as gullible as Democrats think they are.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: You look at the headline and it says Mexico goes
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: into overdrive to help Biden Harris administration slow illegal immigration
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: before a day. So it's all a POI. This is
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: all being done clearly on purpose. They're saying today the
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: illegal border crossings are now over thirty five one hundred
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: for the day that's down, and then they're going to
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: campaign on this. Do you really believe that this is
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: going to work with the American people?
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: I don't, But I got to say, the President of
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Mexico is not the only foreign leader who is trying
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: to influence this election and wants Kamala Harris elected president.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: President Zelenski is in the United States and he's effectively
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: campaigning for Kamala That this is a story, as I
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: said at the outset, that just shocks me. I've never
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: seen this happen where a foreign leader comes. He went
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: to Pennsylvania, the biggest swing state in the country, He
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: went to an ammunition factory. He arrived on an Air
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Force jet, presumably paid for by the taxpayers. And he
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: does this whole interview in The New Yorker where he
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: slams Donald Trump, and he slams jd. Vance. Zelenski says
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: in the interview that Trump quote doesn't really know how
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: to stop the war, even if he might think he
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: knows how. And then on Vance, he attacks Vance directly
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: and says Vance's quote too radical. Now, I got to say,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: who the hell is Zelensky to be trying to interfere
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: in our election? The arrogance of this guy, And you
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: know what, in the Congress, this guy has gotten Republican
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: support for military aid. You want to find a way
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: for that to disappear, This is an awfully good way
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: to do it. And the guy, I've got to say,
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: is an absolute moron for coming to the US six
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: weeks before the election and attacking Trump and Vance. I
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: don't care if Selensky likes or dislikes what they have
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: to say. He is if he had the sense God
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: gave a cricket, he would have said on that question,
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: you know what, I'm not gonna comment about US elections.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: That's for the people of America to decide. That would
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: have been smart. But you know what, Kamala Harris is
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: perfectly happy to use this guy as essentially a campaign prop.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: And as I said, it is absolutely infuriating.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you look at what he was here for, and
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: it was to get a check and that's the part
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I think people need to understand. And it wasn't just
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: to get a check. It was also to They described
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: it as a victory plan quote unquote that he was
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: going to lay out the President, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: They also said he was going to show it to Trump,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: which made me laugh. This is a two and a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: half years of war with Russia and now they've come
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: up with a victory plan. It look he knows if
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: he wants unlimited cash, then then Biden and Harris are
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: the team. And that means Harris now is a team
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: because they will write him a check whenever he needs it,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: and they will continue this for apparently another two and
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: a half years or another five years, whatever it is.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: But when he comes here on our dollar, how is
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: this not an enkind donation? I mean it used to
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: be that when I was on campaigns, they would spend
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: hours with us senator going over campaign finance rules and
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: laws so that none of us ever made a mistake.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: And it was not a joke, like they took real
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: time of like the dues and don'ts and and certain
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: things that you can and cannot do. This dude's flying
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: over here. Taxpayers are paying for it. He's on a
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: big I mean a big jet. He lands in a
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: swing state, he gets off the plane, he does the interview.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: This is this is obviously a campaign contribution to the
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Harris campaign, and no one bats and I that the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: taxpayers are paying for this propaganda.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: So Ben, you're saying they didn't pick Pennsylvania at random.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: It wasn't just oh, let's throw a dart at the
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: map and see where it hits. That the fact that
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: it's the most critical swing state in the entire country
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: was was was a factor in why why Kamala Harris
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: wanted him in Pennsylvania.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, I mean pretty obvious.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: And listen to combine that ostensibly what he said he
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: was there as he was thanking the ammunition plant because
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: they were making the ammunition that's being sent to Ukraine.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Doing that I think is unacceptable, but combining it with
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: explicitly attacking both Donald Trump and JD. Vance is incredibly foolish.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: And let's be clear. Look, look, if you look at
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: the polling, I don't know what the odds are that
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: that that that Trump wins. I certainly hope and pray
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: he wins, but the odds are significant, whatever they are,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: not of us know what the odds are. Sitting here today,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Zelensky that this is just dumb on his part, because
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: if Trump wins, he's got a huge problem that just
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: got bigger. And if Trump loses, you know, good luck
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: trying to get Republicans to listen to what he has
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: to say, if he just behaves like a Democrat campaign activist.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I want to tell you real quick about our friends
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: over at IFCJ, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: With the rise in anti Semitism and continue attacks on Israel,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: it is more important than ever to stand with Israel
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: and the Jewish people. And as we approach the one
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: year anniversary, the one year mark of October seventh, the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is partnering with over
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty churches and other organizations across America
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: in Flags of Fellowship by planting Israeli flags to remember
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the over one thousand, two hundred victims. Now you can
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: be a part of Flags of Fellowship as well. There
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: is tremendous need for food and basic supplies for evacuated
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: families trying to survive in communities that are impacted by
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the ongoing war. And that's why I'm asking twelve hundred
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: of you today to make a gift of one hundred
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: dollars to help provide emergency food boxes for displaced families
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: in Israel. Israel needs are support now more than ever,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: So join me and let the world know that you
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: stand with Israel. You can make your gift right now
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: by calling eight eight eight for eight eight IFCJ. That's
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: eight eight eight four eight eight four three two five,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Or you can go online and securely give there at
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: support IFCJ dot org. That's one word support if CJ
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: dot org or eight eight eight for eight IFCJ. One
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: other question I want to ask you is about Zelensky.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Real quick was going to this you know Ammo plant
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: that they went to. It made me laugh that he's
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: like acting like, you know, there's some do gooders that
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: are giving him this amo. To be clear, the American
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: tax dollars are paying for them. He would never need
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: to go there if this wasn't for a political stunt,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: because they're going to cast a check and that's how
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: they've set this up where hey, they make them America
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: get pays for that AMO. The AMO then goes to Ukraine,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: and it just was such a made for TV propaganda moment.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: And I want people to understand that that's what this was,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: to support and advocate for the campaign.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's exactly right. And I'll tell you an
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: additional point that was made by Donald Trump Junior on
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Twitter I think is really quite significant. So Trump Junior tweeted, So,
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: a foreign leader who has received billions of dollars in
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: fun from American taxpayers comes to our country and has
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: the nerve to attack the GOP ticket for president. And
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: he does this right after a pro Ukraine Zelot tried
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: to assassinate my father. Disgraceful and and and and that's
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: a point. Look, this this this lunatic who camped out
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: on the golf course and was there to assassinate President Trump.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: The facts that have come out on him as he
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: was truly a pro Ukraine Zelot, so much so that
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: he flew over there and was trying to enlist to
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: fight with the Ukrainians. And he was such a kook.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: The Ukrainians said, we don't want you. But but that
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: that really does add insult to injury.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: It does, and also, I think tells you just how
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: tone death they are, or maybe they just don't care
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: at all. I'm not sure that they care at all.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Look, I think I don't know, but I think it
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: was remarkably foolish. And and and you know, look, I
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: normally try to give some grace and leniency to a
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: leader in wartime. I mean, he's fighting for his country.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: I understand what he's doing. This was foolish. I still
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: want Russia to lose, but I think what Zelensky did
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: today was one of the greatest unforced errors I've seen
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: a foreign leader do. I've never seen this happen in
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: my entire life, and I think it really was a bad,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: bad mistake by Zelensky.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and it could. And again, if you're
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: going all in, because you know, you get unlimited funds,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: and you came over here for a check, and every
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: time you show up, America writes you that check. He's
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: probably just looking at the politics, going, hey, this is
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: my meal ticket, Harris is the meal ticket. Let's go
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: help her win reelection or get elected, I should say.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: And then I get the funds flowing for another four years.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: And they obviously made that calculated decision. I agree with you.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I think it was really really foolish. I want to
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: move on. Also something else that you mentioned earlier, and
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: it's happened today. UH set the stage for everybody in Congress, UH,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and and explain exactly what was going on, and it
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: dealt with presidential immunity.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Well, Senate Democrats for two years have been engaged in
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: a relentless assault on the Supreme Court and trying to
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: undermine the Supreme Court. And so today the Senate Judiciary
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Committee held a hearing on the Supreme Court's decision on
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: presidential immunity, and the whole purpose of the hearing was
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: to say that the Supreme Court decision is ridiculous, that
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: it's out of bounds, that it basically said Trump is
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: a king, that he's unaccountable, that it that it's some
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: you know, bizarre decision, and they're trying both to attack
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Trump UH and to delegitimize the Supreme Court.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: And and and so.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Among the witnesses testifying was was Michael Mukasey, who was
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: the former Attorney General of the United States under George W. Bush,
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: and he was a federal judge for nearly twenty years
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: before that. And he was one of the witnesses, and
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: so I took the opportunity to actually question the former
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Attorney general and to lay out the utterly false narrative
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: the Democrats were putting forward. Give a listen to my
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: questioning of Attorney General mucasey. Thank you, mister chairman. The
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: nub of the Democrats argument today is that the concept
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: of presidential immunity is somehow unprecedented, is somehow remarkable. That
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: claim is utterly a historical and disconnected from the entire
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: constitutional history of the Republic. General MW. Casey before twenty
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: twenty three, how many times has the President of the
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: United States been indicted? John before twenty twenty three? How
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: many times has the former president of the United States
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: been indicted?
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Done?
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: In the last two years? How many times has President
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Donald J. Trump been indicted?
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Four times? I believe.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Many presidents of both parties have engaged in controversial actions,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: and yet none of them have been indicted. Let me
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: ask you, General mc caasey, if a private citizen were
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: to erect an internment camp and to forcibly kidnap American citizens,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: to single them out because of race, and to imprison
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: them based on their race. Would that private citizen be
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: subject to criminal prosecution? Would When President Franklin delan Or
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Roosevelt did the exact same thing and erected Japanese internment camps,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: was FDR prosecuted?
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: He was not?
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Similarly, if a private citizen were, say to detonate a
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: nuclear weapon over a city and kill over one hundred
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: and forty thousand people, and then if that private citizen
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: a few days later detonated another nuclear bomb over another
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: city and killed seventy five thousand people, could that private
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: citizen be criminally prosecuted?
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: Would?
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Was President Harry Truman prosecuted for detonating nuclear weapons over
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: He was not?
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: How about this, If a private citizen launched a weaponized
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: drove and killed a United States citizen, could that private
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: citizen be criminally prosecuted?
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: He would?
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Was President Barack Obama criminally prosecuted when he killed United
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: States citizens using drones without notice and without due process?
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: He was not? Although as far as due process is concerned,
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: I believe the comment of my successor to that question
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: was that anmaala'laki got quote all the process that was necessary.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Well, although I suspect he might disagree with that assessment
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: were he able to present his case. Right, all right,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: let's contrast that with the rules that govern other federal officials.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: You were a judge for nineteen years as a federal judge.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Did you have immunity from your.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Official acts from my official act? Yes?
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Do federal prosecutors have an immunity from their official acts?
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: They do? Now, the distinction between official acts and personal
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: acts is not a terribly shocking distinction. Under the decision
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: of Trump versus United States, if any president walks the
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: walks onto the sidewalk and just shoots a citizen, is
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: that president libel to be prosecuted?
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: He is?
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: How about this? If a president steals funds from his campaign,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: does that president face criminal liability?
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: He does?
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: How about this?
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: If a president sexually assaults let's say, an intern in
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: the oval office, is the president subject criminal prosecution for that?
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: He could be?
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: So that distinction, again, is not a shocking distinction. The
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: founding fathers vested the executive power in a single president
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: of the United States. What we have seen in the
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: last two years is we have seen Democrats deliberately weaponizing
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: the Department of Justice and our legal system to target
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: their political opposition. It is not an accident that every
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: indictment against President Trump was brought by a Democrat and
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: was brought after he announced his campaign for president of
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: the United States. Understand, the target of those indictments was
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: not ultimately President Trump. It was the voters. It was
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: prosecutors who were terrified that the voters would choose to
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: re elect President Trump. One of the great things about
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: the United States is we're not a bin out of republic.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Since two thousand, the nation of Pakistan has had six
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: former prime ministters prosecuted and convicted. Brazil has had three
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: former presidents arrested and imprisoned. Last year, Nicaragua and President
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Daniel or Tega arrested, charged, and imprisoned forty political opponents.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: General Man Casey, you are Attorney General of the United States,
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: it is Is it the proper role of the Department
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: of Justice to prosecute and target the political opponents of
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: whoever happens to be President of the United States.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: It is, most assuredly not, thank you.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: He says. It most certainly is not. But the reality
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: is Donald Trump keeps getting attacked by the left and
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: they keep trying to lock up their political opponent.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's exactly what they're doing. And their claim
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: that the ruling that a president can't be criminally prosecuted
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: for his official acts is contrary to the law. It's
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: what's why I use the examples I used. It's why
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: I use Look, the Japanese and Tournament camp. Presidents can
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: do a lot of things in exercising their official power
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: that ordinary citizens cannot, and we would want our commander
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: in chief. Our commander in chief can send our troops
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: into combat, can use lethal force, and they do regularly.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: And so the Supreme Court naturally said, well, we don't
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: want a situation where each new president who comes in
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: the first order of business is let's criminally prosecute the
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: last guy for the things he did as president that
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: I disagreed with.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: And so.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: You know, the hearing was really a dog and pony
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: show by the Democrats to mischaracterize the Supreme Court decision.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: So I thought it was important to explain the actual
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: law in the real context.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you another question about this. Will there
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: be a correction? I mean, if Donald Trump is the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: president next time, will there be a correction? Or once
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: the cats out of the bag, is there any way
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: of getting it back to where we were before as
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: you described it twenty twenty three.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I certainly hope we are not in
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: a world where we are a banana republic where it
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: is routine to prosecute your predecessors. I don't know, but
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: I do think the Democrats have gone down a road
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: that it's very hard to turn around and.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Come back from. Yeah, it is going to be very
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: very tough, to put it mildly, to turn this thing around.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: And I think once they realize they can do this,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I don't see Democrats being responsible moving forward with it.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: That's my biggest concern. So is there anything we can
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: do to protect former presidents? Or it is something need
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: to change with the law.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: And Look, the biggest thing we can and should do
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: is reelect Donald Trump as president. Elections have consequences. We're
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: six weeks away from election day. The outcome of this
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: election matters immensely.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: I want to tell you about Patriot Mobile. If you
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: have a cell phone and your cell phone is with
• 27:56

  Speaker 1: Because with Patriot Mobile, every month when I pay my bill,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I know that about five percent of my bill, no
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: extra cost to me, is actually going back to support
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: conservative causes, candidates, organizations that are fighting for my First
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: and my Second Amendment rights, and that are fighting for

  Speaker 1: the sacty of life and standing with our military, our
