• 0:00
  Speaker 1: For more on that hearing and the Jeffrey Epstein files.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Let's bring in Texas Democratic Congressman Jasmine Crockett.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: You are in that hearing today.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a moment, but first, you've
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: now seen some of the unredacted Epstein files. What if
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: anything stands out or surprises you, I'm.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Going to tell you that they actually have not unredacted
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: a lot of the files. I went after the hearing
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: today and my staff had a number of specific files
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: for me to look at, and basically every single one
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: of them was still redacted. And I had to ask
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: them why are they still reacted? And they said they
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: came to us that way, So we will have to
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: follow up and try to get the unredacted files sent
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: to us.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Your colleague, Representative Jia Paul said a short time ago
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: on exit ag Bondi had a list at that hearing
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: today of which email she had searched when she went
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to view the unredacted files. Your response to this.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, we saw, We knew that ag Bondi had
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: what we called a burn book, and it seems like
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: that she also had a lot of intel that seems to,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: you know, be a violation of the separation of powers. Right.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: We know that we.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: As members of Congress, have been granted by a law,
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: law that was signed into law by this president, to
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: be able to review what is going on within that
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: branch of government. And she decided that basically she was
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: going to be big brother on us and have a
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: list of who all reviewed what and for why. I
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: don't know, but we absolutely learned of this today and
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: I absolutely believe that not only Judiciary, but most likely
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: oversight is going to respond in that hearing today.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: You didn't ask ag Bondi any questions.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: The next congressman who spoke after you gave the ag
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: time to respond, And here's what happened next.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: This is what you didn't want to talk about. Texas
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: from Cuba convicted homicide, arson weapon offense.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Convicted, So what we're talking about, convict some of these
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: perpetrators that rat these women that even acknowledge they are here.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Ag Bondi last a year before a Congressional panel in October.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Why did you not ask her any questions in your time?
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: Listen, I am the last Democrat on the committee. I
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: watched her the entire day and she wasn't answering questions,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: and I'm sure she didn't want to answer to many
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: questions because well, she doesn't want to necessarily lie to Congress,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: even though I'm sure that there is plenty of that
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: to go on. In fact, Ted lou caught her in
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: a lie, so you know, we'll see what happens maybe
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: in future administrations. But instead, she decided that she had
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: her own agenda. That agenda was to put out propaganda
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: for this president. She decided that she was going to
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: talk about the DOW, which has nothing to do with
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: the DOJ. She decided that she was going to talk
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: about how transparent and wonderful he is. She decided that
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: she wanted to challenge us on crime that was taking
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: place in our districts. And you know, she came into
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: the hearing room with pictures of individuals out of Texas.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: But the reality is that there were actual survivors sitting
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: behind her for crimes that currently need to be investigated,
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: and she's not doing anything.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Early voting in the Texas primary begins next week. As
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: you well know, you're locked in a tight race to
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: become the Democratic nominee for the Senate. Some Democrats have
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: expressed dismay over bitter campaign battle between you and your opponent,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Representative James Tallerico, and that it could impact the general election.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Are you concerned that whoever wins could perhaps come out
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: unnecessarily scarred.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Possibly, you know, we're ahead. There was polling that was
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: this release it so there were eight points ahead of
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: mister Salarico and based upon the fact that his super
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: is currently spending more money than John Cornyn's super Pac
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: in this primary. I think that you know, we know
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: that we're hits, so we're we're getting some pretty nasty things.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: It's quite unfortunate that, you know, mister tall Rico has
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: decided to campaign and say that he hates super PACs
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: and things like that. But as remained quiet as we
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: were notified that there was a mailer that came out
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: today that darkened my skin and so flat out lives
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: about me and it was done by his super pack.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: At the end of the day, we're going to keep running.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: We're gonna run hardly its tape. I think that you know,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Texans know who has the experience and who had, you know,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: real plans as well as real receipts for actually getting
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: the work done. Texans want a fighter, they don't want
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: to fold her.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: And we know that in one when we both form.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Mister tall Rico went back and gave the Republicans the
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: form that they needed to pass the voter's propression bills
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: that they decided to pass. And everyone knows that I
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: was one of the co leades of the FORRM break
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: and ultimately I ended up going.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: To US House Texas Democratic Congressman Jasmine Crockett.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: So appreciate your time. Thank you.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Absolutely have a good one.
