0:00
Speaker 1: It is official. We have a highly redacted Affidavid that
0:05
Speaker 1: actually doesn't explain why the Marlago rate occurred and when
0:11
Speaker 1: it was even time to happen has also been redacted.
0:16
Speaker 1: This is exactly what I expected. Another perfect example of
0:21
Speaker 1: the disgusting display of the deep state trying to attack
0:25
Speaker 1: a president, a former president in a way that is
0:28
Speaker 1: un American, and it tells us exactly what we expected.
0:32
Speaker 1: They thought they could get away with it, and now
0:34
Speaker 1: people are asking questions. So here's your document redacted. The
0:38
Speaker 1: focus what we do know on is on the documents
0:41
Speaker 1: and the classification markings national defense information. They want you
0:45
Speaker 1: to believe Donald Trump was stealing state secrets. How redacted
0:49
Speaker 1: of it is? It so redacted that over a fourth

2:39
Speaker 1: So how do you even know what's in here? Right?
2:42
Speaker 1: The DOJ affidavit seeking the search warrant for the FBI
2:46
Speaker 1: raid on Donald Trump's private residence at Marlago, Big deal,
2:52
Speaker 1: it's unsealed by the federal judge Friday afternoon. Doesn't matter
2:56
Speaker 1: because you can't read any of it. The affidavit, signed
3:01
Speaker 1: by a special agent with the FBI, contends that after
3:04
Speaker 1: reviewing fifteen boxes of material that Trump handed over voluntarily
3:09
Speaker 1: by the way to the government, the DOJ determined that
3:13
Speaker 1: classified information had not been stored quote properly, and that
3:17
Speaker 1: there might be more of it at Marlago might be quote.
3:21
Speaker 1: The FBI's investigation has established that documents bearing classification markings
3:27
Speaker 1: which appeared to contain national defense information, which appear keyword appear,
3:33
Speaker 1: we're among the materials contained in the fifteen boxes, and
3:37
Speaker 1: we're stored at the premises in the unauthorized location. Now,
3:41
Speaker 1: let's just compare this real quick to Hillary Clinton's storing
3:44
Speaker 1: of hundreds of thousands of classified documents on an unsecure
3:48
Speaker 1: server that could have easily been hacked. It may have
3:50
Speaker 1: been hacked by our world adversaries, and then when we
3:53
Speaker 1: asked for those documents, she actually deleted them and destroyed
3:57
Speaker 1: them and bleached them and smashed the self phones. The
4:00
Speaker 1: Blackberries had her staff do it, and no one went
4:03
Speaker 1: to jail, and no one got raided. Quote Further, there
4:08
Speaker 1: is probable cause to believe that additional documents that contain
4:13
Speaker 1: classified Nassal defense information or that our presidential records subject
4:19
Speaker 1: to record retention requirements currently remain at the premises all
4:23
Speaker 1: capital letters. I'm again reading from the affidavit. There is
4:27
Speaker 1: also probable cause to believe that evidence of obstruction will
4:32
Speaker 1: be found on the premises. Really, and one of the
4:36
Speaker 1: government's concerns was that the material in the boxings, when
4:39
Speaker 1: they say, was quote poorly organized. Let me read that
4:44
Speaker 1: statement for you again. One of the government's core concerns
4:47
Speaker 1: for raiding Donald Trump's house was his organizational skills. Now
4:54
Speaker 1: we're rating people's houses because they don't, Martha Stewart categorize things, right,
5:01
Speaker 1: I'm reading from the Affidavid ready for this. Preliminary review
5:05
Speaker 1: of the fifteen boxes indicated that they contained newspapers, magazines,
5:11
Speaker 1: printed news articles, photos, miscellaneous pronounced notes, presidential correspondence, personal
5:19
Speaker 1: and post presidential records, and a lot of classified records.
5:24
Speaker 1: Of most significant concern was that highly classified records were unfolded,
5:30
Speaker 1: intermixed with other records, and otherwise unproperly identified. So the
5:36
Speaker 1: government says, let's raid in the president's house because the
5:39
Speaker 1: material in the boxes that he gave us voluntarily was
5:42
Speaker 1: poorly organized. The agent did not personally know that there
5:47
Speaker 1: was defense related information, by the way, in the documents
5:52
Speaker 1: with alleged classification markings, but said that quote, based on
5:56
Speaker 1: my training and experience, I know the documents it's classified
6:00
Speaker 1: at these levels typically contain national defense information. Really, you
6:07
Speaker 1: can just say that without having any reason to believe
6:10
Speaker 1: it other than that's what you just want people to believe,
6:13
Speaker 1: that national defense informations in these boxes. Do you know
6:16
Speaker 1: it's in the boxes? No? I don't, But I know
6:18
Speaker 1: because I'm such a good person at my job that
6:22
Speaker 1: by default there must be these highly classified documents in
6:28
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's possession. Did you know personally that the self
6:31
Speaker 1: defenser or the defense information was actually there. No. The
6:37
Speaker 1: agent also cited this is not a joke a bright
6:40
Speaker 1: Bart News article in which former White House a nasal
6:44
Speaker 1: security officials cash Betel said that Trump had classified the
6:48
Speaker 1: documents number fifty three, line fifty three. In this heavily
6:56
Speaker 1: redacted Affidavid says, quote, I'm aware of an article published
7:01
Speaker 1: in Breitbart on May fifth, twenty twenty two, available at
7:04
Speaker 1: with a link to Breitbart, which states that Caspatel, who
7:07
Speaker 1: has described as a former top administration official for the
7:14
Speaker 1: First Lady, by the way, characterized as misleading reports and
7:22
Speaker 1: other news organizations that NARA had found classified materials among
7:26
Speaker 1: records that Floats provided to the NARA from Marlago. Patel
7:32
Speaker 1: LEDs that such reports were misleading because the First Lady
7:36
Speaker 1: had to classify the material at issue. Really, that's now
7:40
Speaker 1: what we're doing now. So we're going off the First
7:42
Speaker 1: Lady and people that worked with the president and others.
7:45
Speaker 1: That's now what we're saying. So so Potus and Flotus, Yeah,
7:48
Speaker 1: that's what we're doing. Now. We're saying this is this
7:52
Speaker 1: is literally what they're now saying. You understand how messed
7:57
Speaker 1: up this is that. This is what they're now saying.
8:01
Speaker 1: This is what they're this is what they're now saying.
8:04
Speaker 1: There's now saying, well, we have people around the former
8:06
Speaker 1: president of the United Stents America. The First Lady and
8:09
Speaker 1: others are saying they believe that there was classified documents there,
8:13
Speaker 1: so therefore it must be true, right, it must be true.
8:17
Speaker 1: This must be a thing, This must be real. This
8:20
Speaker 1: must have actually happened. There's no way it didn't happen.
8:25
Speaker 1: So do we actually really know anything at this point?
8:28
Speaker 1: Let me tell you the truth. We don't, because all
8:31
Speaker 1: the good stuff we don't know. Okay, all the all
8:35
Speaker 1: the all the good stuff, we don't know about. All
8:40
Speaker 1: the good stuff. In fact, we have no clue about.
8:45
Speaker 1: And the reason why we don't know about it is
8:47
Speaker 1: because it's too redacted. It's a lot of accusations, but
8:53
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of facts here. Take a listen
8:56
Speaker 1: to how Brett bar talked about this when the news
8:59
Speaker 1: broke on five. So listen carefully. Could there have been
9:02
Speaker 1: and was there room here for another subpoena to happen
9:07
Speaker 1: before the raid of a former president's home, and to that,
9:10
Speaker 1: that's the question you've had since the release of this
9:12
Speaker 1: redacted affidavit. Yeah, that's the timing that this affidavit doesn't
9:17
Speaker 1: because of the redactions, doesn't show us, doesn't tell us
9:21
Speaker 1: why that all fell apart did they believe that there
9:24
Speaker 1: was a reason that the former president was somehow holding
9:28
Speaker 1: them off. There was a reason in their justification that
9:32
Speaker 1: they had had to move. Now, why didn't they, when
9:35
Speaker 1: they find the documents in the fifteen boxes in January,
9:39
Speaker 1: move quicker to go after these highly highly sensitive documents
9:44
Speaker 1: that they believe are still on the premises after looking
9:47
Speaker 1: at the fifteen boxes that they retrieved back in January,
9:50
Speaker 1: why does it take to June to get a subpoena
9:52
Speaker 1: and then why does it take to August eighth to
9:54
Speaker 1: then launch this raid that is not laid out in
9:58
Speaker 1: these documents. It in the part that we can read,
10:01
Speaker 1: It may be in the part that we can't read.
10:05
Speaker 1: It may be in the part that we can't read. Well,
10:08
Speaker 1: that's good to know, right, I'm glad. I'm glad to
10:11
Speaker 1: at least know we have that. Now. We have no
10:15
Speaker 1: idea what's going on here, folks. What we do know
10:18
Speaker 1: is they clearly wanted to grab something and go into
10:20
Speaker 1: a fishing exploration and do everything they could to grab
10:24
Speaker 1: something on the president of the United States of America,
10:27
Speaker 1: and they just needed somebody to sign off on this,
10:29
Speaker 1: and they found the guy. They found a guy that
10:32
Speaker 1: would sign off on it, and the guy that signed
10:34
Speaker 1: off on it made it very clear why sign off
10:36
Speaker 1: it because he hates the president too. He had disparaging
10:39
Speaker 1: comments on his social media pages about the president. He's
10:43
Speaker 1: a guy that gave major donations to Barack Obama and
10:46
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's when he was the vice president. He's a
10:50
Speaker 1: guy that actually protected and defended the worst people that
10:53
Speaker 1: work for Jeffrey Epstein. So why would you not say,
10:59
Speaker 1: go out after Donald Trump and weaponize the deep state
11:02
Speaker 1: to do exactly that. Now this comes, by the way,
11:04
Speaker 1: as there's another part of the story, and that deals
11:07
Speaker 1: with jeff Mark Excuse me, I say Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook.
11:12
Speaker 1: He did an interview where he admitted that the FBI
11:15
Speaker 1: told them not to report on the story. Told Facebook
11:19
Speaker 1: to not report on the story of Hunter Biden's laptop.
11:23
Speaker 1: So if you don't think the deep state's all up
11:25
Speaker 1: in all of this, you are stupid. Now, I mentioned
11:31
Speaker 1: a moment ago that the FBI, and this is another
11:34
Speaker 1: example of the corruption of the deep state. The FBI
11:37
Speaker 1: told Facebook not to report on the story of Hunter
11:41
Speaker 1: Biden's laptop. We know this because Mark Zuckerberg decided it
11:45
Speaker 1: was a good idea to go on a podcast and
11:50
Speaker 1: have a conversation about Facebook or Meta or whatever the
11:53
Speaker 1: hell they name their company now, right, and to talk
11:56
Speaker 1: about what's going on with Facebook. He decides to go
12:01
Speaker 1: on a very famous podcast of Joe Rogan experience. Joe
12:06
Speaker 1: Rogan has been attacked by the intolerant left. They try
12:10
Speaker 1: to cancel his show from Spotify. They have attacked his advertisers,
12:15
Speaker 1: trying to get them to stop as well. It's not working,
12:19
Speaker 1: and Zuckerberg decided to go on the show. I want
12:22
Speaker 1: you to hear what he admitted, all right, and I'm
12:25
Speaker 1: gonna give you the gist of it because I want
12:27
Speaker 1: you to listen for this exact moment where Mark Zuckerberg
12:33
Speaker 1: admits that the FBI was heavily involved and basically fixing
12:40
Speaker 1: the two thousand and twenty election. They were colluding with
12:47
Speaker 1: the Democrats and Joe Biden to shut down Donald Trump.
12:52
Speaker 1: Because the FBI went to Facebook and they warned them
12:56
Speaker 1: of quote Russian propaganda dump before the Hunter Biden laptop story.
13:01
Speaker 1: They knew it was coming. They didn't want it to
13:03
Speaker 1: be real news. They went to Facebook and said, you
13:06
Speaker 1: may want to limit this story. You want to be
13:08
Speaker 1: aware of this, and so he admitted that literally the FBI,
13:12
Speaker 1: at the highest levels under you know, those that hated
13:16
Speaker 1: Donald Trump were colluding to make sure that Donald Trump
13:19
Speaker 1: would not get a free and fair election. Is that
13:23
Speaker 1: not the same thing as an actual coup attempt? The
13:27
Speaker 1: same people, by the way, they did that just rated
13:30
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's home. They will stop at nothing, by the way,
13:34
Speaker 1: to stop you, or Donald Trump or anyone else if
13:38
Speaker 1: you get in their way of power. And listen to
13:40
Speaker 1: this conversation where Facebook is is openly admitting that the
13:45
Speaker 1: FBI came to Facebook warning them a propaganda dump right
13:50
Speaker 1: before the Hunter Biden's story broke, which they knew was
13:53
Speaker 1: factual and real. Like there was a lot of attention
13:57
Speaker 1: on Twitter during the election because of the Hunter Biden
14:01
Speaker 1: laptop story. Yeah, so you guys censored that as well.
14:06
Speaker 1: So we took a different path than Twitter. Um, I
14:09
Speaker 1: mean basically the background here is the FBI, I think
14:12
Speaker 1: basically came to us some some folks on our team.
14:14
Speaker 1: It was like, hey, um, just so you know, like
14:17
Speaker 1: you should be on high alert. There was We thought
14:20
Speaker 1: that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the
14:22
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen election. We have it on notice that basically
14:27
Speaker 1: there's about to be some kind of dump of of
14:30
Speaker 1: uh that's similar to that, so just be vigilant. So
14:35
Speaker 1: our protocol is different from Twitters. What Twitter did is
14:38
Speaker 1: they said you can't share this at all. UM. We
14:41
Speaker 1: didn't do that. What we do is we have UM
14:44
Speaker 1: if something's reported to us as potentially UM misinformation important misinformation.
14:50
Speaker 1: We also the third party fact checking program because we
14:52
Speaker 1: don't want to be deciding what's true and false. And
14:55
Speaker 1: for the I think it was, by the way, that's
14:57
Speaker 1: such a lie. They the hardcore leftists in America to
15:03
Speaker 1: then masquerade is fact checkers right, and to act like
15:08
Speaker 1: they would never do something to limit conservative information. This
15:14
Speaker 1: is how Facebook can operate and one degree of separation, right.
15:18
Speaker 1: And this is what fact checkers do before the election.
15:21
Speaker 1: They go on to every conservatives pages that has a
15:23
Speaker 1: large following and they immediately start tagging things as partially
15:28
Speaker 1: false or false. And then you have to go through
15:30
Speaker 1: an appeals process so that nine percent of the time
15:32
Speaker 1: you lose no matter what. And they will then say
15:35
Speaker 1: that you're not allowed to send out or you're not
15:39
Speaker 1: allowed to reach your audience. They put you in jail.
15:41
Speaker 1: So you lose your reach. That's what Facebook does. And
15:45
Speaker 1: Facebook says, well, it's not us that's doing this, right,
15:48
Speaker 1: calm down, right, it's not us. We're not doing this.
15:52
Speaker 1: These are third party party fact checkers that are doing this.
15:55
Speaker 1: Third party fact checkers, folks, Okay, third party fact checkers
16:01
Speaker 1: that they hand select and give money to and pay
16:04
Speaker 1: to fact check. And they're a bunch of hardcore leftists,
16:09
Speaker 1: so of course they're going to use their power to
16:12
Speaker 1: silence conservatives. And the FBI now is in on it too.
16:18
Speaker 1: The FBI is literally going to Facebook saying, hey, there's
16:22
Speaker 1: gonna be some stuff dumped, and that gives Facebook all
16:25
Speaker 1: they needed. That's all the political cover you need, folks.
16:31
Speaker 1: That's it. It's all you need, folks. They come to you,
16:36
Speaker 1: and then you can say, well, they told us this, right,
16:38
Speaker 1: they said this was coming, So we're not going to
16:40
Speaker 1: allow you to see the hunter Biden's story. Keep listening
16:43
Speaker 1: to this crap from from from Facebook five or seven
16:47
Speaker 1: days when it was basically being being determined whether it
16:52
Speaker 1: was false. The distribution on Facebook was decreased, but people
16:58
Speaker 1: were still allowed to share it, so you could still
17:00
Speaker 1: share it, you could still consume it. We see the
17:02
Speaker 1: distribution is decreased. It got shared it basically the ranking
17:07
Speaker 1: of news feed was a little bit less, so fewer
17:09
Speaker 1: people saw it than would have otherwise. So it definitely
17:13
Speaker 1: by what percentage, I don't know off the top of
17:15
Speaker 1: my head, but it's it's it's meaningful. But I mean,
17:18
Speaker 1: but basically I love this. It's meaningful. We didn't ban
17:22
Speaker 1: the story like Twitter. We just made it where when
17:25
Speaker 1: you shared the story, none of your friends saw the story.
17:28
Speaker 1: And as he just described it, well, it was meaningful.
17:31
Speaker 1: It was I mean, it was a meaningful ban, right,
17:34
Speaker 1: It was a meaningful ban, but it wasn't something that
17:40
Speaker 1: was like super sick, you know. We didn't. We didn't.
17:43
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a meaningful you know, suppressing of
17:46
Speaker 1: the story getting out, but we didn't outright ban it.
17:48
Speaker 1: That's what you could still consume it if you could
17:51
Speaker 1: find it. So the FBI goes to Facebook and says
17:56
Speaker 1: to Facebook, hey don't let this get out, and Facebook says, okay,
18:02
Speaker 1: if you want to know what a coup is, this
18:03
Speaker 1: is what a coup looks like. Folks. This is how
18:05
Speaker 1: cous work, right, I mean, this is literally how cou's work.
18:12
Speaker 1: This is how they happen, folks, Right, this is what
18:16
Speaker 1: happens when you have a government that is totally out
18:20
Speaker 1: of control. This is how they act, and this is
18:26
Speaker 1: what they do. And his explanation gets even worse. A
18:33
Speaker 1: lot of people are still able to share it. We
18:35
Speaker 1: got a lot of complaints that that was the case.
18:37
Speaker 1: You know, obviously this is a hyper political issue. So
18:40
Speaker 1: depending on what side of the political spectrum, you either
18:42
Speaker 1: think we didn't censor it enough or censored it way
18:44
Speaker 1: too much. But but we weren't sort of as black
18:47
Speaker 1: and white about it as Twitter. We just kind of thought, hey,
18:49
Speaker 1: look if the FBI, which I still view as a
18:53
Speaker 1: legitimate institution in this country, it's a very professional law enforcement,
18:57
Speaker 1: they come to us and tell us that we need
18:58
Speaker 1: to be on guard about something that I want to
19:00
Speaker 1: take that seriously. Did they specifically say you need to
19:03
Speaker 1: be on guard about that story? I no, I don't
19:06
Speaker 1: remember if it was that specifically, but it was it
19:09
Speaker 1: basically fit the pattern when something like that turns out.
19:12
Speaker 1: They didn't say it was that story exact actually right,
19:16
Speaker 1: but it fit the pattern. Well, what's the pattern here?
19:19
Speaker 1: Your Facebook and your hardcore commies, And as a hardcore
19:25
Speaker 1: commie you don't want a story that makes Joe Biden
19:28
Speaker 1: look bad. That's is that what it means, because that's
19:32
Speaker 1: what it seems like you're implying here. It seems like
19:35
Speaker 1: that's in fact, all you're implying here. Now, before I
19:40
Speaker 1: get into more of this story, I want to say
19:42
Speaker 1: thank you and tell you about our good friends at
19:44

20:41
Speaker 1: I want to go back to what I was talking
20:43
Speaker 1: about a moment ago with the FBI, and you know
20:47
Speaker 1: the FBI we now know told Facebook not to report
20:50
Speaker 1: in the story of Hunter Biden's laptop. I want you
20:53
Speaker 1: to hear this part where Joe Rogan goes into all right,
20:56
Speaker 1: so you've given us the reason, right, You've given us
21:00
Speaker 1: this reason to censor a story. But what happens when
21:03
Speaker 1: you guys turn out like where it's not true, Like
21:06
Speaker 1: where you guys get it wrong, where you act like
21:09
Speaker 1: something was a lie when in fact the story is true.
21:12
Speaker 1: What does Facebook have to say about getting the Hunter
21:15
Speaker 1: Biden's story wrong? In essence, listen to this response from
21:19
Speaker 1: the head of Facebook. When something like that turns out
21:23
Speaker 1: to be real, is there regret for not having it
21:28
Speaker 1: evenly distributed and for throttling the distribution of that story?
21:34
Speaker 1: What do you mean evenly distributed? I mean evenly in
21:38
Speaker 1: that it's not suppressed. It's not yeah, yeah, yeah, I
21:41
Speaker 1: mean it's it sucks. Yeah yeah, I mean because of
21:43
Speaker 1: it had turned out after the fact. I mean the
21:45
Speaker 1: fact checkers looked into it, no one was able to
21:47
Speaker 1: say it was false, right, So so basically it had
21:50
Speaker 1: this period where it was getting less distribution. So yeah,
21:55
Speaker 1: I mean, I but I think, like I think it
21:58
Speaker 1: probably it sucks, though I think in the same way
22:01
Speaker 1: that probably having to go through like a criminal trial,
22:04
Speaker 1: but being proven innocent in the end, it sucks. Like
22:06
Speaker 1: it still sucks to have like that. You had to
22:08
Speaker 1: go through a criminal trial, but at the end you're free.
22:12
Speaker 1: So it's I don't know if the answer would have
22:14
Speaker 1: been don't do anything or don't have any process. I
22:17
Speaker 1: think the process was pretty reasonable. You know, we still
22:20
Speaker 1: let people share it, but but obviously you don't want
22:23
Speaker 1: but no, it could see it. I love this from
22:25
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg here, right, He's like, well, it sucks if
22:28
Speaker 1: you get accused of committing a crime and then you
22:30
Speaker 1: go through and then you're found out in something you
22:31
Speaker 1: started to go through it. But what we did was reasonable.
22:33
Speaker 1: He's another word saying he would do exactly the same
22:36
Speaker 1: thing again, because this is what the leaf does, right,
22:39
Speaker 1: they get something wrong, they have to admit they got
22:41
Speaker 1: it wrong. So then what they say as well. It
22:43
Speaker 1: sucks that we got it wrong, but we had a
22:46
Speaker 1: moral obligation to do everything we could and make sure
22:48
Speaker 1: that we you know that we we didn't let the
22:51
Speaker 1: election be influenced by Russian disinformation. And the FBI came
22:57
Speaker 1: to us and told us these are their words, right,
23:02
Speaker 1: the FBI came to us and told us that there
23:05
Speaker 1: was going to be Russian disinformation. So we didn't really
23:08
Speaker 1: do anything wrong. In fact, we actually did everything right.
23:11
Speaker 1: You guys just don't understand it. It sucks for everybody,
23:15
Speaker 1: but we didn't do anything wrong, right. We somehow we
23:20
Speaker 1: got it all wrong, but we did it all right,
23:22
Speaker 1: and we would do it all over again. So let's
23:26
Speaker 1: go back to mar Lago for a second. We know
23:29
Speaker 1: the FBI is constantly involved in trying to manipulate you.
23:36
Speaker 1: We know that the FBI went to Facebook and told Facebook,
23:40
Speaker 1: don't do the story right, don't whatever you do, just
23:44
Speaker 1: don't publish the story or or don't let it be
23:47
Speaker 1: seen by a lot of people on Hunter Biden. All right,
23:50
Speaker 1: that's number two. We know that, like, that's that's part
23:53
Speaker 1: of the facts here. And now that same FBI that
23:57
Speaker 1: was that was literally doing what they said Russia was
24:00
Speaker 1: trying to do right, have outside influence on the election.
24:04
Speaker 1: Right medal in our elections is what the FBI did
24:08
Speaker 1: during before and after the election. They were meddling in
24:12
Speaker 1: all of it. And they then want you to believe
24:16
Speaker 1: that by releasing this one fourth of everything redacted reason
24:22
Speaker 1: for going into mar Lago is going to clear it
24:24
Speaker 1: all up when there's nothing in there. They're even quoting
24:28
Speaker 1: Brightbart articles as justification for why they went in there,
24:32
Speaker 1: right the I mean the headline here, Justice Department releases
24:35
Speaker 1: redacted Marla affidavit justifying their raid. There's nothing in here
24:41
Speaker 1: that's justifiable. I mean, the release of this redacted affidavit
24:46
Speaker 1: by the Justice Department used to obtain a search warrant
24:49
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump's home does not shed new light on
24:52
Speaker 1: the federal investigation into Donald Trump. It sheds light on
24:56
Speaker 1: how shady the deep state actually is. And he can't
25:00
Speaker 1: see anything here that looks like it was a legitimate
25:04
Speaker 1: reason to do it. The FBI said there was quote
25:07
Speaker 1: likely evidence of obstruction and classified defense documents. Even no,
25:13
Speaker 1: they did not find classified defense documents that were turned
25:17
Speaker 1: over the fifteen boxes they did willingly, the FBI says,
25:22
Speaker 1: when we found one hundred and eighty four classified documents
25:25
Speaker 1: from fixed fifteen boxes earlier this year, that sounds like
25:29
Speaker 1: a lot if you don't know what you're talking about.
25:31
Speaker 1: But if you look at Hillary Clinton's servers, she had
25:33
Speaker 1: what hundreds of thousands, three hundred thousand classified documents. Almost
25:37
Speaker 1: everything the presidents see is classified when you're the president, right,
25:42
Speaker 1: They said among the materials, there were sixty seven documents
25:45
Speaker 1: marked as confidential, ninety two documents marked as secret, and
25:49
Speaker 1: twenty five documents marked as top secret, according to the filing.
25:53
Speaker 1: So they're saying, all right, we're gonna redact everything, but see,
25:55
Speaker 1: somehow we were right. And then Joe Biden gets in
25:59
Speaker 1: on this, Right, the guy who clearly isn't control of
26:03
Speaker 1: his cognitive functions, comes out and mocks Trump's claim that
26:07
Speaker 1: all the classified material brought to Marlago was declassified beforehand,
26:11
Speaker 1: because this is how you turn a shadiest hell story
26:15
Speaker 1: of the government's corruption into somehow they of course it's
26:19
Speaker 1: what's happening, and they do it under the pretense with
26:21
Speaker 1: you know, Donald Trump's crazy. He's been right on everything,
26:23
Speaker 1: by the way, the media has been wrong on everything.
26:26
Speaker 1: Russian collusion. Donald Trump was right on his campaign being
26:29
Speaker 1: spied on Russia. Russia, Russia was ala lie. He was
26:33
Speaker 1: right on that. He was right to say they were
26:36
Speaker 1: trying to overthrow the will of the people. Right, Donald
26:38
Speaker 1: Trump keeps being right, but somehow he's still crazy. Right.
26:42
Speaker 1: The media is the media is not corrupt and shady. No, no, no,
26:45
Speaker 1: social media, big tech, they're not shady at all. Right, no, no,
26:48
Speaker 1: they do everything perfect except when they get it wrong.
26:50
Speaker 1: And we just talked about that. You know, the president
26:53
Speaker 1: keeps being right, but somehow he's the nut job here.
26:57
Speaker 1: He is the one you can't trust. That's what they
26:59
Speaker 1: keep going back, So you can't trust us for guy,
27:01
Speaker 1: he's crazy. Former president. It's Americas is. We had to
27:05
Speaker 1: raid his house. We had another option here, We just
27:08
Speaker 1: had to. There's nothing that we could have done to
27:10
Speaker 1: say no to this. Peter Navarro who came on this show,
27:13
Speaker 1: and if you miss that conversation, go back on our
27:15
Speaker 1: podcast and grab it. Peter Navarre has been arrested by
27:18
Speaker 1: the FBI. Right, they came in rated his house, did
27:20
Speaker 1: the whole thing right, because he's he's associated with Donald Trump.
27:25
Speaker 1: He went on TV today and said, screw this judge
27:28
Speaker 1: that's involved in this. Listen, well, well, clearly clearly embedded
27:33
Speaker 1: within the FBI. And by the way, there's a revolving
27:35
Speaker 1: door between the FBI and the Department of Justice. I
27:39
Speaker 1: don't even know this. For example, Lisa Monaco used to
27:42
Speaker 1: work at the FBI. Now she's over over on the
27:44
Speaker 1: other side of the street working for DJ. So it's
27:48
Speaker 1: the very incestuous relationship. And and look it's like these
27:53
Speaker 1: are partisans. They have weaponized the FBI. We just need
27:58
Speaker 1: answers here, yea at this point point and redacting the
28:02
Speaker 1: entire after day that accept a small reference to some
28:06
Speaker 1: media outlet is not transparency. Okay, that judge, I mean,
28:11
Speaker 1: screw that judge. That guy had no business approving the
28:14
Speaker 1: warrant to begin with, and now he gives us this.
28:17
Speaker 1: That guy is a joke. We should send him to
28:19
Speaker 1: Epstein's low Lead to Island because he was part of
28:23
Speaker 1: that joke. And so what the what the hell is
28:26
Speaker 1: going on here? Me and leg irons Trump have an
28:29
Speaker 1: FBI agent's rifle of panty draws, Roger Stone having CNN
28:34
Speaker 1: be ready to do a million dollar raid on his house.
28:39
Speaker 1: Paul man Afford going to prison, Mike Flynn in twenty
28:43
Speaker 1: sixteen getting entrapped by the FBI and winding up causing
28:49
Speaker 1: a ripple effect in the Trump administration. We really needed
28:53
Speaker 1: can we get to because of at FBI? Because of
28:56
Speaker 1: the FBI, because the FBI says, don't screw with us,
29:00
Speaker 1: and if you do screw with us, it's on, we'll
29:03
Speaker 1: ruin your life. Right. This is no different than Jager
29:06
Speaker 1: Hoover right that when he had his files as blackmail
29:09
Speaker 1: files on everyone. You don't do what I tell you
29:12
Speaker 1: to do, and I will ruin your life. I've got
29:15
Speaker 1: dirt on you and said, now it's not dirt, it's
29:19
Speaker 1: just hey, we'll ruin your life and make up lies
29:21
Speaker 1: about you. Now, let's talk about problem, cause or justification here.
29:26
Speaker 1: Shannon Beam over at Fox going through this release the
29:31
Speaker 1: mar Lago raid documents, she said it absolutely correct. This
29:36
Speaker 1: has so many more questions, its leaves and answers because
29:41
Speaker 1: this was not about evidence. This was about fishing for
29:44
Speaker 1: things to then attack the president over. If you heard
29:47
Speaker 1: what Chris was saying that he thinks that this is
29:49
Speaker 1: a real case for a Trump's argument on a special
29:52
Speaker 1: Master here because when you look at the fifteen boxes
29:55
Speaker 1: of documents that the President surrendered back in January this year.
29:59
Speaker 1: There were all sorts of other materials in there besides
30:02
Speaker 1: classification related materials that the National Archives and Records Administration
30:08
Speaker 1: we're looking for. It was newspaper articles, other writings, things
30:11
Speaker 1: like that. So, does President Trump have a case here
30:16
Speaker 1: when he's asking a judge to appoint a special master
30:18
Speaker 1: to say, take this stuff out of the hands of
30:19
Speaker 1: the DOJ, getting into the hands of a neutral third
30:22
Speaker 1: party to determine what exactly the DOJ and the FBI
30:25
Speaker 1: should hang onto and should get back. So a lot
30:27
Speaker 1: of folks will say, you should have asked for that
30:29
Speaker 1: right away. There should have been this delay because now
30:31
Speaker 1: the documents have been out there. But interesting in the
30:33
Speaker 1: material that we got to do, it wasn't blacked out.
30:35
Speaker 1: We see there that there was a plan to go
30:37
Speaker 1: through with teams to separate things out. That is traditionally
30:40
Speaker 1: what would happen in one of these cases anyway. So
30:42
Speaker 1: the very specific procedures for handling potential attorney client privileged
30:46
Speaker 1: information is part of what happened in authorizing this rate.
30:50
Speaker 1: And so it goes on to say they're going to
30:52
Speaker 1: be different teams, They're going to separate things out. They're
30:54
Speaker 1: going to decide what is attorney client privileged and what
30:57
Speaker 1: goes to law enforcement personnel. Says, if at any point
31:00
Speaker 1: enforcement personnel assigned to this investigation, then identify any data
31:03
Speaker 1: or documents they consider potentially attorney client privilege, you have
31:07
Speaker 1: to stop review immediately and get rid of these documents.
31:09
Speaker 1: So this is much like what they had asked for
31:12
Speaker 1: with the Special Master. But it looks like one of
31:15
Speaker 1: the things the FBI the DJ was trying to do
31:17
Speaker 1: in advance of this raid, which they had to know
31:19
Speaker 1: would would attract a lot of attention, is to say,
31:22
Speaker 1: we already have these teams in place. This is how
31:24
Speaker 1: we're going to handle the information to make sure that
31:25
Speaker 1: those objections are met. Well, you know, in the irony
31:29
Speaker 1: of the fact that this redacted affidavit was released because
31:33
Speaker 1: the public wanted to know more why this happened, Shannon,
31:36
Speaker 1: perhaps you can make the quick case that this leaves
31:38
Speaker 1: more questions than answers at this point. Yeah, And there
31:42
Speaker 1: was an interesting piece yesterday by a former federal prosecutory.
31:44
Speaker 1: Actually he was counseled to the US one of the
31:47
Speaker 1: top House committees over there, and he said, I don't
31:49
Speaker 1: think you should let anything be released because it's going
31:52
Speaker 1: to do that. It's going to fuel some conspiracy theories
31:54
Speaker 1: or more questions. All of those dark, blacked out pages
31:58
Speaker 1: will lead people to their own assessments about what they
32:00
Speaker 1: think may or may not be there. So there's the
32:02
Speaker 1: argument about not releasing at all. But I think that listen,
32:05
Speaker 1: the Trump team the New York Times, you don't often
32:07
Speaker 1: see them aligned. They were together in these core battles
32:11
Speaker 1: to try to make sure that they could get as
32:12
Speaker 1: much information released as possible. And the president's team and
32:16
Speaker 1: his legal team has said, oh along, we're not worried
32:18
Speaker 1: about what's in there. There's a lot we can't see,
32:21
Speaker 1: but now we know at least the basic gist of
32:23
Speaker 1: what was going on, and from what we know so far,
32:25
Speaker 1: you're right, I think it leaves more questions than answers
32:27
Speaker 1: for a lot of folks, Sandra, a lot of more
32:32
Speaker 1: questions and answers. So what did we actually learn from
32:36
Speaker 1: this affidavit? We learned one thing, and that's that the
32:40
Speaker 1: FBI's playbook is very simple. Number One, target your political enemies.
32:46
Speaker 1: Number two, say you can't comment on an ongoing investigation.
32:50
Speaker 1: Once you target your political enemies. Number three, then leak
32:55
Speaker 1: certain information to the press to make your political enemies
32:59
Speaker 1: look bad, and then go back and say you can't
33:01
Speaker 1: comment on the ongoing investigation, even on the information that
33:05
Speaker 1: you just lead to the press. Then when you're asked questions,
33:09
Speaker 1: you redact your documents when releasing the documents for disclosure.
33:15
Speaker 1: Then eventually you get caught lying. But does it really
33:17
Speaker 1: matter because you get to keep your job and you
33:18
Speaker 1: get a promotion, and then you just rinse and repeat
33:21
Speaker 1: over and over again. It's pretty brilliant. Say slap put
33:25
Speaker 1: that out there, and I'm like, spot on, you're exactly right.
33:28
Speaker 1: This is now what this is the game plan, and
33:31
Speaker 1: this is what we've learned. You can do whatever the
33:33
Speaker 1: hell you want to do if you're the FBI, and
33:34
Speaker 1: you just keep doing it over and over again until
33:37
Speaker 1: eventually you get rid of every person that stands in
33:39
Speaker 1: your way of your power or questions your power.
