Jack Smith Under Oath · David Pollack Primetime

0:10
Speaker 1: YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THAT FAR BACK IN YOUR
0:12
Speaker 1: MEMORY TO REMEMBER A TIME WHERE THE IDEA OF INDICTING
0:19
Speaker 1: A FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, TARGETING A FORMER
0:22
Speaker 1: PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, BOOKING A FORMER PRESIDENT OF
0:26
Speaker 1: THE UNITED STATES, PUTTING HIM ON TRIAL, RAIDING HIS HOUSE.
0:30
Speaker 1: THAT WAS SOMETHING WE WOULD NEVER It's something you heard
0:38
Speaker 1: about in stories of maybe the old Soviet Union or
0:41
Speaker 1: maybe China, North Korea, any of those places. Never the
0:44
Speaker 1: United States. But they did it here. The Democrats did
0:51
Speaker 1: it here. They weaponized law enforcement powers of our government
0:57
Speaker 1: and targeted President Trump in hopes of keeping him from
1:01
Speaker 1: ever being able to run for office again. The two
1:02
Speaker 1: impeachments weren't enough. He was such a political threat. that
1:08
Speaker 1: they wanted not only to bankrupt him, but take away
1:12
Speaker 1: his freedom, as well as the freedom of many around him,
1:16
Speaker 1: punish him, teach him a lesson, teach everyone a lesson,
1:19
Speaker 1: whoever dared to run for office again. We've talked about
1:25
Speaker 1: Fannie Willis and good old Nathan Wade, Alvin Bragg, Letitia James,
1:31
Speaker 1: James Comey. We've talked about all of them. and as
1:35
Speaker 1: corrupt as all those investigations and prosecutions were, I don't
1:40
Speaker 1: think any one of them was as brazenly anti-American and
1:45
Speaker 1: corrupt as the investigation headed up by good old Jack Smith.
1:51
Speaker 1: For two years, Jack Smith hunted Donald Trump. He had
1:57
Speaker 1: two grand juries, two indictments, an army of FBI agents,
2:01
Speaker 1: and the full weight of Joe Biden's Justice Department.
2:34
Speaker 1: AND THE REST OF US. THIS MORNING, IN ROOM 216
2:38
Speaker 1: OF THE HART SENATE OFFICE BUILDING, JACK SMITH SAT DEFIANTLY
2:43
Speaker 1: UNDER OATH IN FRONT OF THE SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE AT
2:47
Speaker 1: A HEARING ON WHAT THAT COMMITTEE CALLS JACK SMITH'S ABUSE
2:51
Speaker 1: OF AUTHORITY AND THE TARGETING OF REPUBLICANS. the United States
2:57
Speaker 1: Senate in the eye and justified the scandal look.
3:02
Speaker 2: Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President
3:06
Speaker 2: Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation. If asked
3:11
Speaker 2: whether to prosecute a former president today based on the
3:16
Speaker 2: same facts, I would do so regardless of whether that
3:19
Speaker 2: president was a Republican or a Democrat.
3:24
Speaker 1: FOR THE RECORD, BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT, WELL, THAT'S A
3:27
Speaker 1: JURY INSTRUCTION AND NO JURY EVER MADE THAT CALL IN
3:30
Speaker 1: A JACK SMITH CASE. A FEDERAL JUDGE RULED HIS APPOINTMENT
3:34
Speaker 1: UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND THREW OUT HIS DOCUMENTS CASE, HIS ELECTION CASE,
3:39
Speaker 1: DIED BEFORE THE TRIAL. THE ONLY COURTROOM WHERE JACK SMITH
3:42
Speaker 1: EVER CONVICTED DONALD TRUMP IS IN HIS OWN OPENING STATEMENT.
3:46
Speaker 1: HIS VERSION, BACK IN JANUARY, HE He calls his subpoenas
3:54
Speaker 1: common practice. Common practice to subpoena anyone in the President
3:59
Speaker 1: of the United States orbit. Common practice to raid his
4:03
Speaker 1: home with federal agents' guns drawn. Common practice. Now, here's
4:10
Speaker 1: the record. His team subpoenaed the text records of 87
4:15
Speaker 1: Trump White House phones. Swept up inside were communications of
4:19
Speaker 1: nearly 50 journalists from 17 news organizations, including CBS, CNN, Fox,
4:26
Speaker 1: The Associated Press, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post.
4:30
Speaker 1: Swept up, too, were the private text messages of 44
4:34
Speaker 1: members of Congress. One of Smith's senior prosecutors downloaded those
4:39
Speaker 1: texts within 30 minutes of getting them. Records released by
4:43
Speaker 1: Senator Grassley showed the team went straight around the filter team,
4:47
Speaker 1: the lawyers whose only job is to screen out privileged material. First,
4:52
Speaker 1: 30 minutes. That's how long the Constitution slowed down Jack
4:57
Speaker 1: Smith's team. And the chairman who gaveled in this morning's hearing,
5:02
Speaker 1: Chuck Grassley, is one of those 44. Look.
5:05
Speaker 3: The Smith election case ultimately wasn't just about Trump. It
5:11
Speaker 3: was about partisan agents and prosecutors mapping out THE REPUBLICAN APPARATUS.
5:19
Speaker 1: HIS VERSION ON THE SENATOR'S PHONE RECORDS HAS ALREADY BEEN STATED.
5:24
Speaker 1: HE SAID EARLIER THIS YEAR, I DIDN'T CHOOSE THOSE NUMBERS,
5:28
Speaker 1: PRESIDENT TRUMP DID. THE RECORD, HIS OWN PEOPLE'S EMAILS, ONE
5:34
Speaker 1: WROTE BEFORE WE TELL MAINE, AS IN MAINE JUSTICE, WE'RE
5:39
Speaker 1: GOING TO FIRE OFF SUBPOENAS FOR SO MANY MEMBERS' TOLLS.
5:43
Speaker 1: I SHOULD MAKE SURE JACK'S AWARE. And Jack was aware.
5:47
Speaker 1: The House Judiciary Committee says he approved most of them.
5:50
Speaker 1: Another of his senior prosecutors work off the checklist. Look
5:55
Speaker 1: at page 608 of the House report and let me
5:58
Speaker 1: know if we have already gotten tolls for the members
6:02
Speaker 1: that Trump and Giuliani contacted, they said. The House report
6:07
Speaker 1: was Nancy Pelosi's January 6th committee's report. 16 days after
6:11
Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy became Speaker of the House, Smith's team subpoenaed
6:16
Speaker 1: his phone records. They even subpoenaed years of Kash Patel's
6:20
Speaker 1: phone records. They went after Senator John Kennedy, Lindsey Graham,
6:24
Speaker 1: Josh Hawley, Marshall Blackburn, and Mike Lee. And all five
6:28
Speaker 1: sit on the committee that questioned him today. His version
6:31
Speaker 1: on being targeted himself?
6:33
Speaker 3: Look.
6:34
Speaker 2: I stand by my testimony before the House of Representatives,
6:38
Speaker 2: and I will not be silenced by continued threats of
6:42
Speaker 2: prosecution from the president or others.
6:46
Speaker 1: I won't be silenced. Good, because they've picked a better villain. Now,
6:51
Speaker 1: here's the record. When his team took Republican lawmakers' phone records,
6:55
Speaker 1: Republican lawmakers' phone records, The phone companies got gag orders
7:01
Speaker 1: so the members would never find out. Senator Grassley says
7:07
Speaker 1: Smith's office never even told the judges signing those orders
7:10
Speaker 1: that the phones belonged to members of Congress. Jack Smith
7:16
Speaker 1: refuses to be silenced. He made sure his targets stayed silent.
7:22
Speaker 1: His version last December to House investigators, here was the question,
7:27
Speaker 1: It was just toll record, Smith. Correct, he says. But
7:32
Speaker 1: here's the thing. The record, Justice Department documents show his
7:36
Speaker 1: team had the text messages of 44 members of Congress
7:41
Speaker 1: in July. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan said the Justice
7:45
Speaker 1: Department had a criminal referral accusing Smith of willfully and
7:49
Speaker 1: intentionally making false statements of material facts. Smith's lawyers say
7:54
Speaker 1: it rests on spurious claims. The Justice Department said it
7:59
Speaker 1: will investigate all evidence of criminal conduct. So today, under oath,
8:04
Speaker 1: Smith was handed a chance to clean it all up.
8:08
Speaker 1: But as you heard him say, he stands by his testimony.
8:13
Speaker 1: The Justice Department's own records don't. Now, Jack Smith's defense
8:18
Speaker 1: in all of this is that he is unbiased, nonpartisan, independent.
8:25
Speaker 1: But Senator John Kennedy... one of the senators whose phone
8:29
Speaker 1: records Smith's team subpoenaed, checked the record on that for
8:33
Speaker 1: all of us, and look what he found.
8:36
Speaker 4: When President Trump defeated Secretary Clinton, you were bitterly disappointed,
8:42
Speaker 4: weren't you?
8:46
Speaker 2: I don't recall that.
8:48
Speaker 4: You don't recall at all?
8:51
Speaker 1: Mrs.
8:52
Speaker 4: Smith was, wasn't she?
8:57
Speaker 2: I'm not going to talk about my family.
8:59
Speaker 4: Your spouse, it's certainly her right, I'm not being critical,
9:03
Speaker 4: is an ardent supporter of President and First Lady Obama,
9:08
Speaker 4: is that right?
9:12
Speaker 2: I'm not going to talk about my family.
9:14
Speaker 1: Whose family supports is not relevant, right? He's a dependent.
9:18
Speaker 1: We'll put it all together. He claims... PROOF AND A
9:24
Speaker 1: JUDGE THROUGHOUT HIS CASE. HE SAYS HIS OFFICE DIDN'T SPY
9:27
Speaker 1: WHILE THE TEXTS OF 44 LAWMAKERS SAT IN HIS TEAM'S
9:31
Speaker 1: HANDS WITHIN 30 MINUTES. HE SAYS IT WAS JUST TOLL
9:33
Speaker 1: RECORDS AND HIS TEAM HAD THE TEXT MESSAGES. HE SAYS
9:37
Speaker 1: HE WON'T BE SILENCED AND HE GOT GAG ORDERS ON
9:40
Speaker 1: THE PHONE COMPANY SO NOBODY KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING. NOW,
9:44
Speaker 1: IF THEY'LL DO THAT TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE
9:48
Speaker 1: JUDICIARY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, THE SPEAKER OF
9:51
Speaker 1: THE HOUSE AND THE MAN WHO NOW RUNS THE FBI.
9:54
Speaker 1: I HAVE TO DO THAT TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE
9:55
Speaker 1: UNITED STATES. Well, your phone was never off limits, then,
9:58
Speaker 1: was it? Your text messages to a White House staffer
10:01
Speaker 1: or your calls to your congressman, all fair game. In
10:05
Speaker 1: the hands of a prosecutor who stands behind every one
10:08
Speaker 1: of those subpoenas, Jack Smith says he stands by his decisions,
10:12
Speaker 1: and I'm sure he does. I think after today's hearing...
10:15
Speaker 1: IT'S MORE CLEAR NOW THAN EVER BEFORE THAT HE WASN'T
10:18
Speaker 1: RUNNING A PROSECUTION. HE WAS RUNNING A POLITICAL OPERATION WITH
10:21
Speaker 1: SUBPOENA POWER AND CONSIDERING POLYMARKET HAS THE ODDS OF DEMOCRATS
10:26
Speaker 1: TAKING POWER AGAIN IN THE MIDTERM SOMEWHERE AROUND 91%. THIS
10:29
Speaker 1: SHOULD TERRIFY ALL OF US. So go grab your friends,
10:35
Speaker 1: drag them to the polls, tell the people that are
10:38
Speaker 1: thinking about sitting things out because they don't like the
10:40
Speaker 1: price of gas. Show them this monologue and remind them
10:46
Speaker 1: what the Democrats did the last time they have power.
10:50
Speaker 1: And they've already told us what they'll do should they
10:54
Speaker 1: get power again. Still ahead tonight, new satellite images of
11:01
Speaker 1: Gaza hit Google Earth, and now the left is screaming
11:05
Speaker 1: proof of genocide. But the map doesn't show the tunnels
11:09
Speaker 1: or even what Hamas does to its own people. And
11:12
Speaker 1: of course, Macklemore just launched his own free Palestine tour.
11:17
Speaker 1: But he calls ICE agents terrorists. Joy Vila joins me
11:21
Speaker 1: on a follow-up segment for when he first got kicked
11:23
Speaker 1: off Ed Sheeran's tour, plus Grant Cardone on the one
11:26
Speaker 1: move that separates the rich from the poor, hint, investing,
11:30
Speaker 1: and the socialist streamer who laughed at two Navy SEALs
11:34
Speaker 1: who died in the line of duty and the socialist
11:37
Speaker 1: Democrat friends he surrounds himself with. All that's coming up.
11:41
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere.

12:22
Speaker 1: The pictures went up this week and new Google Earth
12:24
Speaker 1: satellite images of Gaza. Whole neighborhoods flattened. Rafah, scraped nearly bare.
12:31
Speaker 1: The United Nations says 82% of the buildings in Gaza
12:35
Speaker 1: are damaged or destroyed. And of course, after that, Al
12:38
Speaker 1: Jazeera ran the images under a headline claiming it's Israel's
12:43
Speaker 1: genocidal war. Now, if you only looked at that map,
12:49
Speaker 1: you might believe them. BUT LOOK BENEATH IT. AND YOU
12:53
Speaker 1: SEE WHY IT WAS LEVELED. HAMAS, REMEMBER THEM? YOU KNOW,
12:59
Speaker 1: THE TERRORIST ORGANIZATION WHO ORCHESTRATED THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS THAT
13:03
Speaker 1: INVITED ISRAEL INTO GAZA TO BEGIN WITH. YOU KNOW, THE
13:06
Speaker 1: THING THAT EVERYBODY SEEMS TO FORGET WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT
13:09
Speaker 1: THE DESTRUCTION IN GAZA. They dug hundreds of miles of
13:17
Speaker 1: tunnels under those neighborhoods, under homes, under schools, under hospitals.
13:22
Speaker 1: They built their war machine inside the city on purpose.
13:27
Speaker 1: So when Israel told families to get out, even Hamas
13:31
Speaker 1: told them to stay, using people as human shields. And
13:35
Speaker 1: despite Hamas's best efforts to weaponize the people of Gaza,
13:40
Speaker 1: turn them into those human shields, The Hamas-run health ministry,
13:45
Speaker 1: which makes no distinction between civilians and terrorists, puts the
13:48
Speaker 1: dead at about 74,000 in a territory of more than
13:52
Speaker 1: 2 million people. Now, the Israeli military says at least 22,000
13:56
Speaker 1: of them were combatants. That's not genocide. It is still
14:00
Speaker 1: sad when civilians lose their lives, but it's not genocide.
14:05
Speaker 1: In fact, urban warfare expert John Spencer points to UN
14:09
Speaker 1: and EU estimates that civilians usually make up 80 to
14:12
Speaker 1: 90 percent of the dead in modern war. In Mosul,
14:15
Speaker 1: where U.S.-backed Iraqi forces fought ISIS, he counts some 10,000
14:19
Speaker 1: civilians dead against roughly 4,000 terrorists. And he says Israel
14:23
Speaker 1: took more precautions to protect civilians than any military in history.
14:29
Speaker 1: Millions of leaflets, millions of text messages, tens of thousands
14:33
Speaker 1: of phone calls telling families to leave before the strikes,
14:37
Speaker 1: when the buildings came down. But the warnings went out first,
14:41
Speaker 1: not a genocide. Hamas treats its own people differently, though.
14:46
Speaker 1: No sympathy for them. A United Nations human rights report
14:49
Speaker 1: in June documented executions, kneecappings, and bones broken with metal
14:54
Speaker 1: pipes and cement bricks with Hamas gunmen and Hamas police
14:59
Speaker 1: among the people doing it. Last October, days into the ceasefire,
15:03
Speaker 1: eight men were dragged into Gaza City Square and shot
15:06
Speaker 1: in front of a crowd. Even Amnesty International, no friend
15:09
Speaker 1: of Israel, IS DEMANDING HAMAS STOP THE EXECUTIONS. 1,200 ISRAELIS
15:16
Speaker 1: WERE MURDERED ON OCTOBER 7TH. 251 HOSTAGES WERE DRAGGED INTO GAZA.
15:22
Speaker 1: AND NEARLY A YEAR INTO THE CEASEFIRE, HAMAS STILL REFUSES
15:26
Speaker 1: TO DISARM. IF THERE'S A GENOCIDE IN GAZA, IT'S NOT
15:30
Speaker 1: AT THE HANDS OF ISRAEL. IT'S BURIED UNDERNEATH THE RADICAL
15:36
Speaker 1: IDEOLOGY OF THE TERROR GROUP HAMAS. And into all of
15:41
Speaker 1: this walks, can we call him an artist? A guy.
15:46
Speaker 1: A guy. You have to make good music to be
15:48
Speaker 1: called an artist. A guy named Macklemore. You know, the
15:52
Speaker 1: thrift shop rapper. You probably don't know the thrift shop
15:54
Speaker 1: rapper because it was like a decade ago that he
15:57
Speaker 1: made music that anybody actually cared about. Well, he was
16:00
Speaker 1: opening for Ed Sheeran at MetLife Stadium this month in
16:06
Speaker 1: front of fans who paid to hear music and instead
16:09
Speaker 1: he gave them this.
16:11
Speaker 2: I say to them, let it go.
16:14
Speaker 4: From Cuba to the Congo to Sudan to Iran.
16:17
Speaker 6: Let it go.
16:17
Speaker 7: The people we need in America, they have to live
16:22
Speaker 7: in fear because of this terrorist organization.
16:29
Speaker 1: TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. THAT'S WHAT HE CALLS THE MEN AND WOMEN
16:32
Speaker 1: ENFORCING AMERICA'S IMMIGRATION LAWS. HAMAS EXECUTES PEOPLE IN THE TOWN
16:36
Speaker 1: SQUARE AND MACKLEMORE SAVES THE WORD TERRORIST FOR ICE. As
16:43
Speaker 1: we discussed on this show, Robert Kraft, owner of the Patriots,
16:47
Speaker 1: he's pointed out Macklemore's broader history of anti-Semitic rhetoric. Venues
16:51
Speaker 1: refused to host him, and the promoter pulled him off
16:54
Speaker 1: the rest of the U.S.
16:55
Speaker 8: Tour.
16:56
Speaker 1: Four other acts walked off tour in solidarity with Macklemore.
16:59
Speaker 1: This is the same Macklemore who once took the stage
17:02
Speaker 1: in a wig and a beard and a fake nose
17:04
Speaker 1: that critics called an anti-Semitic caricature. AND WHO TOLD A
17:08
Speaker 1: SEATTLE CROWD TWO YEARS AGO, F-AMERICA. HE DIDN'T SAY F.
17:12
Speaker 1: HE ACTUALLY USED THE WORD. SO NOW HE'S LAUNCHED HIS
17:15
Speaker 1: OWN He said he joined Sheeran's tour to say it
17:21
Speaker 1: on stages and stadiums across America. His tour plays Dublin, Paris,
17:25
Speaker 1: and London. He's already pledged a million dollars to groups
17:28
Speaker 1: including UNRWA USA, a charity that raises money for the
17:33
Speaker 1: UN agency that fired nine staffers after a UN investigation
17:37
Speaker 1: found they may have been involved in the October 7th attacks.
17:40
Speaker 1: His explanation? Being apolitical during a genocide doesn't work anymore.
17:46
Speaker 1: So for me, I'm kind of tired of him and
17:48
Speaker 1: the nonsense of his friends in Hollywood and the music
17:51
Speaker 1: industry who think they know what they're talking about when
17:54
Speaker 1: they say free Palestine. I'm done with all of it.
17:57
Speaker 1: Lecturing from their award stages as they look down their
18:00
Speaker 1: offensively accessorized noses at the Jewish fans he told not
18:04
Speaker 1: to take it personally. I'm just curious why he doesn't
18:07
Speaker 1: go and take his tour to Gaza. I don't know.
18:09
Speaker 1: Maybe the public executions suppress concert attendance. Maybe too much
18:14
Speaker 1: to turn a profit. I don't know. Joining me now
18:16
Speaker 1: is singer-songwriter Joy Vila, who has been making her own
18:20
Speaker 1: political statements on music's biggest red carpet for years. Joy,
18:23
Speaker 1: welcome back to talk about Macklemore yet again, and also
18:28
Speaker 1: this greater sort of narrative that Israel's a bad guy
18:31
Speaker 1: and poor Gaza, right? I mean, what's going on?
18:35
Speaker 9: It's the same leftist victimhood. Again, he wants to be
18:39
Speaker 9: the victim, but he's empowered because, I mean, listen, this
18:43
Speaker 9: is the thing. If the entertainment industry can get us
18:46
Speaker 9: to hate the Jews, to hate Israel, then we can
18:49
Speaker 9: hate God, which is really what they want. This is
18:51
Speaker 9: a satanic agenda, okay? And Macklemore must be funded by
18:55
Speaker 9: some Muslims because all the Muslims are up against Israel
18:59
Speaker 9: and they want to claim that, oh, Hamas, oh, we
19:02
Speaker 9: don't even want to talk about Hamas.
19:03
Speaker 10: It's the Jews.
19:04
Speaker 9: It's the evil Jews. It's the pointed nose, evil Jews.
19:07
Speaker 9: This sounds exactly like what happened in Germany. So this
19:11
Speaker 9: is not OK. Macklemore pretending to be above. He's so
19:15
Speaker 9: you know, these liberals are just like this. He seems
19:18
Speaker 9: like one of those liberal guys you come across. I mean,
19:20
Speaker 9: you wouldn't know this, David. But unfortunately, I have some
19:23
Speaker 9: experience with this. You're scrolling through, you know, TikTok or
19:26
Speaker 9: Tinder and there's a liberal guy there. And my girlfriends are,
19:30
Speaker 9: you know, in this dating world and they're like, oh,
19:32
Speaker 9: should I date this guy? And they look exactly like
19:34
Speaker 9: Macklemore with the Palestinian scarf. the bleached hair, and the
19:38
Speaker 9: pecs that are bloated up from God knows what they're injecting.
19:41
Speaker 9: And they look like they have superiority. It's a superiority complex.
19:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is a narcissist, but he's a lot of
19:48
Speaker 1: other things. And the thing is, earlier in the show,
19:51
Speaker 1: I talked about Hasan Piker making fun of Dead Navy SEALs,
19:54
Speaker 1: and he pals around with Zoran Mandani, and El Said,
19:58
Speaker 1: and AOC, and all these people. And then you have
20:01
Speaker 1: Macklemore- America. What's that?
20:04
Speaker 8: THEY HATE AMERICA.
20:05
Speaker 1: THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT, JOY. THEY HATE AMERICA. AND THIS WHOLE
20:08
Speaker 1: FREE PALESTINE THING IS NOTHING BUT A SOCIALIST DOG WHISTLE.
20:12
Speaker 1: THE SAME THING WITH BLACK LIVES MATTERS, FREE PALESTINE, WOMEN'S RIGHTS,
20:17
Speaker 1: F TRUMP, WHATEVER THEY'RE MARCHING. NO KINGS. IT'S ALL THE
20:20
Speaker 1: SAME SOCIALIST, COMMUNIST, MARXIST NONSENSE. THEY'RE ALL BANDING TOGETHER. AND
20:25
Speaker 1: MACK LEMORE IS JUST ONE OF THEM. AND THIS LITTLE
20:26
Speaker 1: TOUR HE'S DOING ONLY JUST BASICALLY REITERATES EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN SAYING.
20:34
Speaker 9: They refuse to say Hamas is evil. We should be
20:38
Speaker 9: joining together Palestinians and Jews to see that Hamas is
20:42
Speaker 9: the real enemy. And Palestinians should be saying, you know what,
20:45
Speaker 9: you're right. This is wrong. Instead, they're playing the victim.
20:49
Speaker 9: People who support this are playing the victim yet again.
20:52
Speaker 9: And they're using it to turn the tables and say
20:54
Speaker 9: America bad, America so evil, white man bad, white man
20:58
Speaker 9: so evil, Christianity bad, Christianity so evil.
21:01
Speaker 7: Play the victim.
21:01
Speaker 9: Meanwhile, they're taking checks from God knows where. We know
21:05
Speaker 9: that they're taking a lot of money to say this.
21:08
Speaker 9: And I know why, you know, he can give away,
21:10
Speaker 9: Macklemore can give away that million dollars because he probably
21:12
Speaker 9: got a check for 10 million to do what he's doing.
21:15
Speaker 9: This doesn't just come out of nowhere. He's reaping the
21:18
Speaker 9: rewards for trying to play the anti-American hero. But he's
21:23
Speaker 9: going to fall and it's not going to be by
21:24
Speaker 9: the hands of the American public. It's going to be
21:26
Speaker 9: his own rotten heart. because he's gonna realize he's doing
21:29
Speaker 9: the wrong thing and he's on the wrong side of history.
21:32
Speaker 1: THAT'S A GREAT POINT, JOY. AND YEAH, IT IS THE
21:35
Speaker 1: HATRED FOR AMERICA. AND YOU MAKE A GOOD POINT, TOO.
21:38
Speaker 1: THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PEOPLE OF GAZA.
21:41
Speaker 1: IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BLACK PEOPLE IN AMERICA.
21:44
Speaker 1: BLM DIDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR BLACK PEOPLE, JUST LIKE HAMAS
21:47
Speaker 1: DOESN'T DO ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE OF GAZA. NONE OF
21:50
Speaker 1: THESE GROUPS THAT PEOPLE PRETEND TO BE SUPPORTING, THEY ACTUALLY
21:53
Speaker 1: CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT THESE GROUPS PRETEND TO SUPPORT. anti-Semitic, anti-Israel,
22:00
Speaker 1: anti-Western sort of groups who come in together and just
22:03
Speaker 1: pretending to represent people that they actually don't represent. It's terrible.
22:07
Speaker 1: We need to fight against it. Joy Vila, thank you
22:09
Speaker 1: so much for being here, as always. Love having you
22:11
Speaker 1: on the show.
22:12
Speaker 8: A pleasure.
22:13
Speaker 9: Great to see you, David.
22:14
Speaker 1: Good to see you, too. Stick around because it's Tuesday,
22:17
Speaker 1: and that means it's time for another Cardone Zone. And
22:20
Speaker 1: Grant Cardone says the rich and the poor handle their
22:23
Speaker 1: paychecks a little bit differently. He gives us some advice
22:26
Speaker 1: on how to trade one for the other. That's coming
22:29
Speaker 1: up next.
22:35

Speaker 5: you can't get anywhere else.
23:11
Speaker 1: IT'S TUESDAY, WHICH MEANS IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER INSTALLMENT OF
23:14
Speaker 1: THE CARDONE ZONE. AND TONIGHT, GRANT IS TURNING And it's
23:25
Speaker 1: not just the amount of money they have, it's how
23:28
Speaker 1: they handle it. Yesterday, Grant put it this way over
23:31
Speaker 1: posting on X. He says, poor people want cash to
23:34
Speaker 1: pay bills. Rich people convert their cash to invest. If
23:39
Speaker 1: you want to go from poor to rich, invest. Now,
23:43
Speaker 1: it's a classic Cardone line, blunt, provocative, guaranteed to start
23:47
Speaker 1: an argument. Because for millions of Americans, cash isn't just
23:51
Speaker 1: sitting around waiting to be invested. At least that's what
23:53
Speaker 1: they think. They think it's already spoken for. The paycheck
23:57
Speaker 1: arrives and the mortgage takes some. If you got a mortgage,
24:01
Speaker 1: the car payment takes some. Groceries, insurance, electric bill, all
24:05
Speaker 1: that stuff. Then the next paycheck arrives and the cycle
24:08
Speaker 1: starts all over again. They're trapped in a system where
24:11
Speaker 1: almost every dollar they earn seemingly belongs to somebody else.
24:15
Speaker 1: But Cardone's point is that if every dollar you earn
24:19
Speaker 1: disappears into another bill, nothing's ever going to change. You
24:22
Speaker 1: can earn more money, work more hours, even get a raise,
24:25
Speaker 1: but all of it goes towards maintaining your current life
24:27
Speaker 1: or whatever life you advance into. Maybe running faster without
24:31
Speaker 1: getting any closer to financial freedom. So how do you
24:34
Speaker 1: break that cycle? And even if you could, what would
24:37
Speaker 1: you invest in? The stock market is near record territory. Cryptocurrencies, well,
24:42
Speaker 1: they go up and down week to week. Real estate
24:45
Speaker 1: has created generations of wealth, but home prices have put
24:48
Speaker 1: traditional home ownership out of reach for many younger Americans.
24:51
Speaker 1: Everybody claims to have the answer, but when everybody comes
24:55
Speaker 1: around with a new investment idea, they all come with warnings.
25:00
Speaker 1: And doing nothing can feel like the safest choice. But
25:04
Speaker 1: if you do nothing, as Grant says... We stay poor.
25:07
Speaker 1: Inflation slowly eats away at the value of cash, prices rise,
25:10
Speaker 1: purchasing power falls, and the money that felt secure sitting
25:13
Speaker 1: in an account buys less with every passing year. At
25:17
Speaker 1: the same time, investing without a plan can even be
25:20
Speaker 1: more dangerous. CHASING GIMMICKS, ACTING OUT OF FEAR, OR PUTTING
25:23
Speaker 1: MONEY INTO SOMETHING YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND CAN TURN AN OPPORTUNITY
25:26
Speaker 1: INTO A VERY EXPENSIVE LIFE LESSON. SO WHERE'S THE LINE
25:30
Speaker 1: BETWEEN INVESTING AND GAMBLING? HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU NEED
25:33
Speaker 1: BEFORE YOU CAN REALISTICALLY INVEST? LOOK AT STOCKS, CRYPTO, REAL ESTATE,
25:38
Speaker 1: SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. AND PERHAPS THE BIGGEST QUESTION, HOW DO
25:42
Speaker 1: ORDINARY AMERICANS BEGIN BUILDING WEALTH WHEN MOST OF THEIR MONEY
25:47
Speaker 1: IS ALREADY GOING JUST TO SURVIVE? There are a million
25:51
Speaker 1: different opinions. But tonight, I'm bringing you the answer to
25:56
Speaker 1: when we asked a man who built a career investing
25:58
Speaker 1: in things where he would have put his money to work.
26:01
Speaker 1: I sat down with Grant Cardone, and here's what he said. Grant,
26:04
Speaker 1: welcome back. So listen, this is a question a lot
26:08
Speaker 1: of people have been asking because you see the stock
26:10
Speaker 1: market is at record highs, and a lot of people
26:12
Speaker 1: are sitting there with cash, even young people who've been
26:14
Speaker 1: playing around with the retail investing accounts. And they see
26:18
Speaker 1: the stock market like, oh, I don't know. Do I
26:20
Speaker 1: buy SpaceX? Do I not? Do I buy Google? Do
26:22
Speaker 1: I not? And then you see the price of cryptocurrencies
26:25
Speaker 1: where a lot of young people like to throw their money.
26:27
Speaker 1: And that Bitcoin is playing around a little bit. Some
26:29
Speaker 1: people think it might go 100. Some people might think
26:31
Speaker 1: it go to 40. So a lot of people are,
26:34
Speaker 1: what do I do with my money? And then, of course,
26:35
Speaker 1: last time we talked about the single family home and
26:38
Speaker 1: it may not be the best investment. You've suggested multifamily
26:41
Speaker 1: and strategies. So if I'm somebody with money, not a
26:44
Speaker 1: ton of money, just a little bit of money, but
26:46
Speaker 1: I want to become an investor. And where do I go?
26:49
Speaker 1: Do I look at the stock market? Do I look
26:51
Speaker 1: at crypto? Where do I go with money?
26:54
Speaker 10: Yeah, so first thing I would tell people about money.
26:56
Speaker 10: Before I tell you where to put it, I would tell.
26:58
Speaker 7: You what not to do first, okay?
26:59
Speaker 10: Because if you do the wrong thing first, you're not
27:02
Speaker 10: going to have any money.
27:04
Speaker 7: In life, you can fail. But with money, if you
27:06
Speaker 7: keep failing, you're going backwards.
27:09
Speaker 10: It's not good advice. I need to learn my lesson
27:12
Speaker 10: because I had to fail, blah, blah, blah. First thing
27:14
Speaker 10: I would tell people is do not save money. Saving
27:18
Speaker 10: money is for the banks. We talked about this on
27:20
Speaker 10: the housing. Save your money, save your money, save your money.
27:23
Speaker 10: You can't save money. You need to store the money
27:26
Speaker 10: someplace in preparation for it to go another place. Second
27:30
Speaker 10: thing I would tell you is do not stay liquid. Now,
27:32
Speaker 10: Wall Street's going to tell you to stay liquid because
27:35
Speaker 10: when you're liquid, you're a target, but you do not
27:37
Speaker 10: want liquidity.
27:40
Speaker 7: Third thing is you need cash flow. In the beginning,
27:42
Speaker 7: the guy you're describing, he should have cash flow from
27:46
Speaker 7: his investment. He shouldn't just be waiting for the appreciation.
27:49
Speaker 7: Most people need money, income to pay their bills.
27:53
Speaker 10: And the fourth thing I would tell you is you
27:56
Speaker 10: want to invest in one thing, not many things. So
28:01
Speaker 10: I've told you what not to do. Now, it's got
28:04
Speaker 10: a cash flow. You don't want to be liquid sitting
28:07
Speaker 10: there with money in a bank because you're going to
28:09
Speaker 10: go both ways. That's why I don't like Bitcoin because
28:11
Speaker 10: you're so liquid. You can sell it at any time.
28:15
Speaker 10: And if it goes down, you're going to get terrified
28:17
Speaker 10: and sell. And if it goes up, you're going to say,
28:18
Speaker 10: I didn't buy enough. So I would tell you to
28:21
Speaker 10: buy one thing that you can wait on.
28:24
Speaker 7: And, you know, in five, seven or 10 years, you're
28:27
Speaker 7: going to have a 10x.
28:29
Speaker 10: And you should be looking for a monster score or
28:32
Speaker 10: even bigger than a 10X. What would that be? Bitcoin
28:35
Speaker 10: could be that, but it doesn't cash flow. SpaceX could
28:38
Speaker 10: be that, but it probably needs to get to 80 bucks.
28:43
Speaker 10: You know, real estate's a great one because it cash
28:45
Speaker 10: flows and it has great tax write-offs and you're illiquid.
28:50
Speaker 7: And you're kind of forced to wait through the cycle.
28:56
Speaker 7: And the real estate's going to be here 10 years
28:58
Speaker 7: from now if you pick it right.
28:59
Speaker 1: So is real estate always the best investment?
29:02
Speaker 7: No, not always. Not always.
29:05
Speaker 10: But I think that there's a reason why so many
29:07
Speaker 10: wealthy people and families end up with a bunch of
29:11
Speaker 10: real estate.
29:12
Speaker 7: Because it has such a duration. It's the largest asset
29:17
Speaker 7: class on planet Earth.
29:18
Speaker 10: You could combine every other asset class, David, and they
29:22
Speaker 10: don't even equal it.
29:23
Speaker 7: All the stocks, all the bonds, all the cash.
29:26
Speaker 10: All the stocks, they still don't equal real estate. Real
29:30
Speaker 10: estate's a $ 390 trillion mega behemoth.
29:34
Speaker 1: And you mentioned cash.
29:35
Speaker 10: And the reason I love it is because it doesn't move,
29:38
Speaker 10: And that's why I hate it too, by the way.
29:39
Speaker 7: You can't move it. SpaceX, maybe it makes it, maybe
29:43
Speaker 7: it doesn't. I don't know. I know this. My real
29:45
Speaker 7: estate will be around longer than Google will. If Google
29:49
Speaker 7: does not make.
29:49
Speaker 10: The transition successfully to AI, it will cease to exist
29:53
Speaker 10: as an entity. Meta will cease to exist if it
29:56
Speaker 10: does not make the transition.
29:58
Speaker 7: So the company, the life of a company is getting
30:01
Speaker 7: shorter and shorter.
30:02
Speaker 10: Back when I was growing up, the average company lasted
30:05
Speaker 10: 75 years. Most of these companies are going to last
30:07
Speaker 10: eight or nine years and they're going to burn out.
30:09
Speaker 10: They're going to burn out because technology is going to
30:11
Speaker 10: replace them.
30:12
Speaker 1: So if I'm understanding correctly, if I have money, and
30:16
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter how much money I have, if I
30:18
Speaker 1: don't have money, get other people's money. But if I
30:20
Speaker 1: want to invest in something, from what I'm understanding, is
30:23
Speaker 1: I should invest in something that doesn't require me to
30:25
Speaker 1: have liquid cash sitting around and also.
30:29
Speaker 10: That can make me- Well, once you dump it, once
30:31
Speaker 10: you dump it, I don't want you to be liquid anymore.
30:33
Speaker 7: I don't want you to be able to change your mind.
30:36
Speaker 7: I want you to make a decision where you're stuck.
30:38
Speaker 1: Put a ring on it.
30:40
Speaker 6: You're committed.
30:40
Speaker 7: Put a ring on it, bro.
30:42
Speaker 1: So, all right. So the Cardone rule is- I don't
30:44
Speaker 1: have a prenup.
30:45
Speaker 7: I don't have a prenup. I'll tell you right now.
30:47
Speaker 7: The divorce would be so expensive. I'm just going to
30:50
Speaker 7: get along with it.
30:51
Speaker 1: All right. So the Cardone rule is when you invest,
30:53
Speaker 1: put a ring on it and make sure you can
30:56
Speaker 1: make money from it. Get some sort of a return.
30:58
Speaker 1: That cash flow you talk about. because it's one thing
31:00
Speaker 1: to park money and wait for it to appreciate. It's
31:02
Speaker 1: another thing to be able to make money on it
31:04
Speaker 1: while it's appreciating. And so real estate is obviously the
31:07
Speaker 1: obvious answer for things that you can cash flow because
31:10
Speaker 1: you can rent it to people. And you talked about
31:12
Speaker 1: the depreciation before. Are there other investments that cash flow
31:17
Speaker 1: other than real estate, like a vending machine? Does that appreciate?
31:20
Speaker 1: But what can you buy?
31:21
Speaker 7: Vending machines are great business. Storage is a great business.
31:26
Speaker 7: Laundry mats are a great business.
31:28
Speaker 10: If you could invest in a business, if you could
31:31
Speaker 10: be a partner in a business and trust the partner,
31:34
Speaker 10: like any of the health supplements that has some litigation risks, obviously,
31:39
Speaker 10: going forward. But the cosmetologists, the people that want to
31:43
Speaker 10: stay young, regenerative stuff, all that stuff is going to
31:46
Speaker 10: continue to be a fantastic business where people have to
31:49
Speaker 10: get serviced.
31:52
Speaker 1: So the end of the day is if you have money,
31:54
Speaker 1: you want to invest, don't invest in the traps. Invest
31:58
Speaker 1: in the things that will make you money. And don't
32:00
Speaker 1: lose your money before you invest it because that lesson
32:02
Speaker 1: results in you never having any, right? So that's the
32:04
Speaker 1: takeaway if you're a young investor or a new investor
32:07
Speaker 1: and you want to make some money.
32:08
Speaker 10: Yeah, until you have enough cash flow that you can
32:10
Speaker 10: take risks. Once you have cash flow, once you have
32:12
Speaker 10: enough passive income coming in, then you start. Look, this
32:16
Speaker 10: is just the game that I played. I mean, it's
32:18
Speaker 10: worked out really well for me, but- I think Lil
32:23
Speaker 10: Wayne says there's a million ways to get it, but
32:24
Speaker 10: you've got to pick one.
32:26
Speaker 1: That's it. Grant Cardone, always a pleasure. Thank you so much,
32:29
Speaker 1: my friend.
32:30
Speaker 6: Thanks.
32:32
Speaker 1: Still ahead, socialism just hit a record high. People are
32:37
Speaker 1: enthusiastic about it in a new Gallup poll. And the
32:40
Speaker 1: loudest voice selling it to young people mocked two fallen
32:44
Speaker 1: Navy SEALs. Former SEAL himself, Bill Brown, joins me with
32:48
Speaker 1: a reaction. And then an ABC host looks into a
32:51
Speaker 1: camera and tells a congressional district how to vote. Is
32:55
Speaker 1: the view breaking the rules? More on this later. Don't
32:58
Speaker 1: go anywhere.
33:04
Speaker 5: For all of our viewers out there asking where to

33:39
Speaker 1: In January of 2024, off the coast of Somalia, a
33:43
Speaker 1: team of Navy SEALs pulled up alongside a boat in
33:46
Speaker 1: the dark. It was loaded with Iranian-made missile parts, headed
33:51
Speaker 1: for Houthi terrorists firing on American ships. The CEEs were
33:55
Speaker 1: running eight feet. Chief Special Warfare Operator Christopher Chambers was
34:01
Speaker 1: climbing aboard with a heavy load of gear. When he
34:05
Speaker 1: slipped from the ladder, he went into the water. Special
34:08
Speaker 1: Warfare Operator First Class Nathan Gage, Ingram, 27 years old,
34:14
Speaker 1: and on his first deployment, jumped in after him. The
34:17
Speaker 1: Navy searched for 10 days, and neither man came home.
34:22
Speaker 1: This week, the most influential voice on the socialist left,
34:27
Speaker 1: the man they call the left's Joe Rogan, decided that
34:31
Speaker 1: was funny.
34:32
Speaker 3: Look.
34:33
Speaker 7: I think seals have.
34:34
Speaker 11: To swim sometimes. Yeah, like those two seals that tripped
34:37
Speaker 11: or slipped and fell off the f * * *
34:39
Speaker 11: ing ladder and died and drowned in the Red Sea.
34:44
Speaker 6: What?
34:45
Speaker 11: Oh, you didn't hear about that?
34:46
Speaker 6: No.
34:46
Speaker 11: Dude, yeah, the only time Navy seals have to swim
34:49
Speaker 11: is when they're in a f * * * ing
34:50
Speaker 11: osprey because you know that s * * * is
34:53
Speaker 11: going down. Okay, well, they die anyway, but still.
34:56
Speaker 1: Unpiker. He has more than 3 million followers on Twitch.
35:01
Speaker 1: He laughs at a man who died jumping into the
35:05
Speaker 1: sea to save his brother. This is the same Hasan Piker,
35:09
Speaker 1: by the way, who has said Hamas is a thousand
35:14
Speaker 1: times better than Israel and stood by it on one
35:18
Speaker 1: of the biggest Democratic podcasts in the country. He's the
35:22
Speaker 1: one who said America deserved 9-11, who called Hezbollah's flag
35:28
Speaker 1: his favorite, and who said it doesn't matter whether women
35:33
Speaker 1: were raped on October 7th. He isn't some fringe dude
35:41
Speaker 1: sitting in a basement. He's close enough. with some of
35:45
Speaker 1: the most powerful socialists in the Democratic Party. New York
35:50
Speaker 1: City Mayor Zoran Mondani shared an Eid dinner with him
35:54
Speaker 1: this spring. Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Saeed campaigned with him.
36:00
Speaker 1: And Piker says El-Saeed asked him to come stump for him.
36:03
Speaker 1: In fact, El-Saeed says it's critical to engage with Piker's audience. Really?
36:10
Speaker 1: And he won't condemn a word of it. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,
36:15
Speaker 1: Ilhan Omar, and Bernie Sanders have all appeared or engaged
36:20
Speaker 1: with his content. When some Democrats finally demanded distance this month,
36:26
Speaker 1: AOC called the focus on Piker absolutely ludicrous. That audience
36:33
Speaker 1: is growing. A new Gallup poll finds 43% of Americans
36:39
Speaker 1: now view socialism positively, the highest ever recorded. 65% of
36:46
Speaker 1: Democrats see socialism in a positive light, and just 35%
36:50
Speaker 1: say the same about capitalism. Among Americans under 35, socialism
36:56
Speaker 1: beats capitalism outright. Isn't it great? AND THIS YEAR'S JUMP
37:00
Speaker 1: CAME ENTIRELY FROM INDEPENDENCE TO VOTERS WHO DECIDE ELECTIONS. THOSE
37:03
Speaker 1: SWING VOTERS WHOSE POSITIVE RATING ON SOCIALISM ROSE FROM 37%
37:08
Speaker 1: TO 45 IN A SINGLE YEAR. PUT THOSE STORIES SIDE
37:11
Speaker 1: BY SIDE. SOCIALISM HAS NEVER BEEN MORE POPULAR IN AMERICA.
37:15
Speaker 1: AND THE LOUDEST VOICE SELLING IT TO YOUNG PEOPLE MOCKS
37:19
Speaker 1: DEAD NAVY SEALS. THAT IS THE MOVEMENT. THAT'S THE PEOPLE
37:27
Speaker 1: YOU'RE PUSHING OUR VOTERS TO. THOSE ARE THE PEOPLE ASKING
37:29
Speaker 1: YOU TO VOTE FOR THEM IN NOVEMBER. THOSE ARE THE
37:30
Speaker 1: PEOPLE WHEN YOU GO ON AND COMPLAIN ABOUT GAS PRICES
37:33
Speaker 1: AND TALK ABOUT DONALD TRUMP IN A NEGATIVE LIGHT, THOSE
37:36
Speaker 1: ARE THE PEOPLE YOU'RE PUSHING OUR VOTERS TO. IF JOKES
37:41
Speaker 1: ABOUT THE DEATHS OF MEN WHO STOOD BETWEEN IRANIAN MISSILES
37:45
Speaker 1: AND AMERICAN SAILORS, IF THAT'S, IF YOU WANT TO BELIEVE
37:57
Speaker 1: Chris Chambers, Gage Ingram gave their lives to protect Piker's
38:02
Speaker 1: right to say horrific things about their sacrifice. But just
38:07
Speaker 1: because Piker and the socialists he runs with have the
38:10
Speaker 1: right to say terrible things doesn't mean we have to
38:13
Speaker 1: vote for the people who stand by those idiots. As
38:17
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, nobody should. HE'S A LAWYER REPRESENTING
38:20
Speaker 1: GOLDSTAR FAMILIES AT PARLATORY LAW GROUP. BILL, WELCOME TO DAVID
38:23
Speaker 1: POLLACK PRIMETIME. was involved in it. Talk about what happened
38:42
Speaker 1: that night and talk about how insensitive Hassan Piker's comments
38:46
Speaker 1: are and how anybody running for office shouldn't ever be
38:48
Speaker 1: allowed to associate with that idiot.
38:52
Speaker 6: Well, the first thing I want to do is may
38:55
Speaker 6: God be with Chris Chambers and Nate Ingram's family. They
39:01
Speaker 6: love this country. They put themselves at risk out of
39:04
Speaker 6: love for this country to protect us. to protect the
39:08
Speaker 6: Navy sailors that were in the Red Sea. And we
39:12
Speaker 6: know that the IRGC was using the Houthis basically to
39:17
Speaker 6: threaten them and put them at risk. And that's what
39:20
Speaker 6: they were trying to do, not only to save sailors' lives,
39:23
Speaker 6: but also to enforce, protect one of the most vital
39:28
Speaker 6: energy shipping lanes in the Thai planet. Yes, you know,
39:32
Speaker 6: the Inquilatory Law Group, we take great honor in representing
39:37
Speaker 6: the men and women who put it on the line
39:38
Speaker 6: for a country. And we did represent Chris Chambers. And
39:43
Speaker 6: one of the things we were representing, Kevin Chambers, the
39:47
Speaker 6: gold star, his son, Chris Chambers, unfortunately drowned on that
39:51
Speaker 6: day in January 11, 2024. What we were trying to
39:56
Speaker 6: do was a bill called the Anti-Terrorism Act. And under
39:59
Speaker 6: the Anti-Terrorism Act, you can actually go after entities that
40:05
Speaker 6: sponsored terrorists, that those terrorist acts actually kill Americans. Now,
40:10
Speaker 6: I think of the despicable Hassan Pikers. And you think
40:14
Speaker 6: about his repetitive pattern that we deserve 9-11. And here
40:18
Speaker 6: he's going to basically prosecute and humiliate some of our
40:23
Speaker 6: beautiful warfighters. And so one of the things that I,
40:28
Speaker 6: it is actually a symptom of the jihadist ideology. He's
40:32
Speaker 6: a jihadist and he's promoting the jihadist ideology. And one
40:36
Speaker 6: of the things that I think a lot of Americans
40:38
Speaker 6: don't understand, I've seen horror. I've seen jihadist horror and
40:42
Speaker 6: I will stand against it. day I die, but a
40:44
Speaker 6: lot of Americans don't understand it. They haven't quite seen it,
40:48
Speaker 6: but here's the truth. There's no ideology in the face
40:51
Speaker 6: of humanity that's responsible for more death, more colonization, more rape,
40:59
Speaker 6: and torture. That's the truth. That's a jihadist ideology. There's
41:03
Speaker 6: no other ideology in the face of humanity that's responsible
41:06
Speaker 6: for more death, enslavement, colonization, rape, and torture. Now, I
41:12
Speaker 6: stand against it, and those beautiful seals, they stood against it. Now,
41:16
Speaker 6: here's the real issue that we have is a lot
41:18
Speaker 6: of people, they don't realize what's happening here. You look
41:21
Speaker 6: what happened in Europe.
41:22
Speaker 7: You look what happened in the UK.
41:23
Speaker 6: Look what happened in France. When you think of Mamdani
41:28
Speaker 6: as New York City's mayor, our nation's largest city, 8
41:33
Speaker 6: million people plus, economic, financial center, media center. And now
41:38
Speaker 6: we have somebody, a mayor, who, in my opinion, promoted Hezbollah,
41:43
Speaker 6: promoted the abuse of Israelis, promoted the abuse of Jewish Americans.
41:49
Speaker 6: This is somebody whose wife celebrated on social media the
41:53
Speaker 6: massacre of over 2,000 Jewish people on October 7, 2023.
41:59
Speaker 6: Now you talk about the missing Senate candidate, Abdul El-Saeed,
42:03
Speaker 6: and you think he's another individual that promoted terrorism. One
42:07
Speaker 6: of the things he said on a social media post
42:09
Speaker 6: now deleted is, yeah, I'll mourn the 2,977 Americans lost,
42:16
Speaker 6: but I'll also mourn the million others. So there he's
42:19
Speaker 6: justifying basically terrorism on us. And that's not the first time.
42:24
Speaker 6: He's also done it with the Jewish synagogue that was
42:27
Speaker 6: attacked in Detroit. And his response was hurt people, hurt people.
42:32
Speaker 6: And what here's, David, here's the real concern. There are
42:36
Speaker 6: a lot of these, you saw what happened in our
42:38
Speaker 6: college campuses, guitar and all these other petroleum rich Muslim
42:42
Speaker 6: nations are funding millions and millions of dollars and influencers
42:48
Speaker 6: like Hassan Piker are getting financed and it's a real
42:52
Speaker 6: problem and we need to follow the money and we
42:56
Speaker 6: need to call it out.
42:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's, I mean, it is crazy that here we
43:02
Speaker 1: are 25 years after 9-11, decades of war to root
43:08
Speaker 1: out terrorism. And the people we've been fighting, not only
43:12
Speaker 1: in this country now, but also getting elected to offices
43:15
Speaker 1: and their ideology is spreading. They're combining their efforts with
43:17
Speaker 1: the socialists. And we've seen this before in other countries.
43:21
Speaker 1: We have to call it out. You're exactly right. And
43:22
Speaker 1: I appreciate you being here and offering your take on this.
43:25
Speaker 1: And I do appreciate your service as well. And God
43:27
Speaker 1: bless those fallen heroes who were doing their job while
43:31
Speaker 1: Hassan Piker mocks them. Bill Brown, thank you so much
43:34
Speaker 1: for being here today.
43:35
Speaker 6: God bless, David. Thank you.
43:37
Speaker 1: God bless you, too. Coming up next, when the views
43:41
Speaker 1: Anna Navarro told Florida voters to knock this woman out,
43:46
Speaker 1: did ABC cross a legal line? MRCTV's Justine Brooke-Murray joins
43:52
Speaker 1: me next to answer that question. Don't go anywhere.
43:59

44:25
Speaker 5: you can't get anywhere else.
44:35
Speaker 1: Ah, The View. Every weekday morning, ABC hands a group
44:40
Speaker 1: of obnoxious women a national broadcast license. The studio audience
44:44
Speaker 1: laughs about everything they say, whether it's funny or not.
44:47
Speaker 1: And a few million viewers, although that number is declining.
44:50
Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if it's still a few million. Now,
44:52
Speaker 1: this week, one of them used it to run a
44:55
Speaker 1: campaign ad. It's a big no-no. Anna Navarro. looked into
45:00
Speaker 1: the camera and spoke directly to voters in Florida's 27th
45:04
Speaker 1: congressional district, and listen to what she had to say.
45:07
Speaker 12: So I don't know if you all heard about this,
45:09
Speaker 12: but this Cuban-American Republican congresswoman, María Elvira Salazar, right? She, uh,
45:15
Speaker 12: District 27 in Miami, she put out an ad where
45:19
Speaker 12: she's looking straight to camera and she says, Some of
45:22
Speaker 12: your immigration enforcement efforts have gone too far.
45:26
Speaker 1: Really, girl?
45:27
Speaker 12: This is after you voted for the big, beautiful bill
45:29
Speaker 12: that funded them. But, okay, so anybody who lives in
45:33
Speaker 12: Coral Gables, in Miami, in Key Biscayne, in downtown Miami,
45:36
Speaker 12: pay attention to that race and go vote, because it's
45:39
Speaker 12: going to matter. And we can actually knock this woman out.
45:42
Speaker 1: There's a great guy running. His name is Elliot Rodriguez.
45:45
Speaker 8: Give him a look.
45:47
Speaker 1: Knock this woman out! That came from a host on
45:52
Speaker 1: a network television show with a candidate's name in her
45:56
Speaker 1: mouth five weeks before an election. Now, the broadcast rules
46:00
Speaker 1: exist for this exact reason. When a station gives airtime
46:04
Speaker 1: to one candidate, the law requires it to offer equal
46:07
Speaker 1: time to others. The exception is legitimate news. A bona
46:11
Speaker 1: fide news interview program gets a pass. Back in 2002,
46:15
Speaker 1: ABC convinced regulators that The View qualified. And that exemption
46:21
Speaker 1: has never been overturned. So the view wants to have
46:24
Speaker 1: it both ways. Hypocrisy, imagine that. When it's time to
46:28
Speaker 1: pick a congresswoman to knock out, it's a news program.
46:32
Speaker 1: When the facts come up, it's just a talk show
46:34
Speaker 1: with opinions. Media Research Center has been documenting it for months.
46:41
Speaker 1: Its president, David Boesel, calls the view wannabe bona fide news.
46:47
Speaker 1: It's wannabe entertainment, that's for sure. Earlier this month, news
46:51
Speaker 1: busters caught the panel telling viewers to vote Democratic in
46:55
Speaker 1: the midterms or everyone will literally die. and floating the
47:01
Speaker 1: 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office. Back in June,
47:04
Speaker 1: by the way, a conservative watchdog went to the FCC
47:08
Speaker 1: and argued that The View functioned as a Democratic Party operation,
47:13
Speaker 1: not a news show. Joe Concha called this week's segment
47:17
Speaker 1: electioneering at this point, plain and simple, and a blatant
47:22
Speaker 1: violation by this network. Now, of course, ABC had nothing
47:25
Speaker 1: to say, and neither did the FCC so far. Now
47:29
Speaker 1: picture a conservative host on a broadcast network looking into
47:31
Speaker 1: the camera, naming a Democratic congressman or congresswoman, and telling
47:35
Speaker 1: her district or his district to go knock them out.
47:39
Speaker 1: By lunchtime, there would be an FCC complaint, calls for boycotts,
47:42
Speaker 1: a week of cable panels about the threats to democracy,
47:45
Speaker 1: and a demand that that host be taken off the air.
47:49
Speaker 1: The rules would suddenly matter a great deal more, wouldn't they? Now,
47:53
Speaker 1: this is the same network already fighting the FCC in
47:55
Speaker 1: court over its broadcast licenses. Those licenses let ABC use
47:59
Speaker 1: the public airwaves, and the public airwaves belong to you.
48:03
Speaker 1: You don't get to vote on who sits at that table.
48:06
Speaker 1: You certainly don't have to watch it. I don't. But
48:08
Speaker 1: the people of Florida's 27th district get to vote on
48:11
Speaker 1: Maria Elvira Salazar. ABC just handed one side a free
48:16
Speaker 1: commercial to try to decide that vote for them. Now,
48:19
Speaker 1: Salazar won her last race by 20 points in a
48:21
Speaker 1: district President Trump carried by 15. Ana Navarro says the
48:24
Speaker 1: race is now dead even. Who believes that? Not me.
48:28
Speaker 1: But if she's right, that's exactly why a free national
48:30
Speaker 1: plug for the Democrats is worth so much and exactly
48:33
Speaker 1: why the equal time rule was written. A news program
48:37
Speaker 1: informs voters the view just told one district had a vote.
48:41
Speaker 1: The Media Research Center has been tracking the views, politics
48:44
Speaker 1: all year, and I'm honored to be joined by Justine Brooke-Murray,
48:48
Speaker 1: one of the Media Research Center's people. Joining us now,
48:52
Speaker 1: thank you for joining me here, and welcome back, David Pollak,
48:54
Speaker 1: Prime Time. You guys have been great on this story,
48:57
Speaker 1: highlighting hypocrisy, highlighting the electioneering. What's going on with this story?
49:01
Speaker 1: It's a crazy one. Yeah. Hi, David.
49:03
Speaker 8: Always great to see you.
49:04
Speaker 13: The Media Research Center back in June, we submitted a
49:08
Speaker 13: report with the FCC and we noted an additional over
49:13
Speaker 13: 2400 pieces of evidence of the view electioneering and acting bias.
49:18
Speaker 8: They have done this throughout history.
49:20
Speaker 13: Sunny Hostin, not a long time ago, actually said that Americans,
49:25
Speaker 13: she said this on air, Americans should vote for Graham Plattner,
49:28
Speaker 13: even though that she did kind of believe the sexual
49:30
Speaker 13: abuse allegations against him, because of course she wanted, she said,
49:35
Speaker 13: we need.
49:35
Speaker 8: To take down those Republicans.
49:38
Speaker 13: But our elitist journalists, really our activist media, they believe
49:42
Speaker 13: that they're above everyone else, that the laws, the rules,
49:46
Speaker 13: the rules of the FCC, they don't apply to them.
49:48
Speaker 8: As long as they use the.
49:50
Speaker 13: Term journalism to describe their electioneering, as long as they
49:54
Speaker 13: pretend to be a legitimate news source, they think that
49:58
Speaker 13: they don't have to follow the equal time rule where
50:01
Speaker 13: you have to provide equal time to every candidate that
50:04
Speaker 13: you have on.
50:08
Speaker 1: So if they did violate the electioneering rule, if they
50:13
Speaker 1: didn't provide equal time, what is the remedy? Is it
50:16
Speaker 1: a fine? Do they have to invite Salazar on and
50:21
Speaker 1: her dog? She brings that dog around everywhere if you've
50:23
Speaker 1: ever seen her. Do they have to do that? What
50:25
Speaker 1: is the remedy for this? Because the damage is done
50:28
Speaker 1: at this point, right?
50:30
Speaker 13: It could start from a fine to possibly being taken off.
50:34
Speaker 8: But at the same time.
50:35
Speaker 13: The rule, unfortunately, has never really been applied, particularly to.
50:40
Speaker 8: The leftist, elitist media.
50:42
Speaker 13: So this is something that it's very long overdue for
50:48
Speaker 13: shows like The View. Just like what happened to Stephen
50:51
Speaker 13: Colbert when he cried because when he had James Tallarico on,
50:56
Speaker 13: he was clearly electioneering.
50:58
Speaker 8: He didn't have Jasmine Crockett on.
51:00
Speaker 13: And when he was called out for doing exactly that,
51:04
Speaker 13: He cried censorship.
51:05
Speaker 8: So there's, of course, as you know, seems to be
51:08
Speaker 8: a double standard.
51:08
Speaker 13: And you kind of mentioned this in your monologue, where
51:12
Speaker 13: these leftist outlets, for such a long time, they've cheered
51:16
Speaker 13: and celebrated each time a conservative outlet was taken off
51:20
Speaker 13: the air or almost taken off the air. I remember
51:23
Speaker 13: I remember when CNN said that we need to handle
51:27
Speaker 13: the OANs of the world. And they not only just
51:30
Speaker 13: like didn't want.
51:31
Speaker 8: OAN allowed in the White House.
51:33
Speaker 13: They wanted to force these cable companies to completely prevent
51:37
Speaker 13: OAN from simply existing.
51:39
Speaker 8: Then you had Anna Navarro.
51:42
Speaker 13: Saying in 2019 that these platforms, these social media platforms,
51:46
Speaker 13: should wipe out any beliefs right of woke because she
51:50
Speaker 13: complained that the First Amendment was too powerful in America
51:53
Speaker 13: and speech that is so-called dangerous or hurtful to people shouldn't.
51:58
Speaker 8: Be protected, a.k.a.
51:59
Speaker 13: Speech that she disagrees with, speech that threatens their dogma.
52:04
Speaker 13: It poses apparently an existential threat to them. So they're
52:07
Speaker 13: hypocrites because now they're crying censorship when we just want
52:11
Speaker 13: them held accountable for campaigning on the airwaves.
52:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point. The good news is nobody's
52:18
Speaker 1: really watching The View anymore anyway, so probably nobody saw that.
52:21
Speaker 1: But you're exactly right, the hypocrisy, the double standard. the
52:25
Speaker 1: dual treatment. It's all very obnoxious to all of us
52:28
Speaker 1: who've been in this business a long time and watched
52:30
Speaker 1: it happen and screamed at the top of our lungs
52:32
Speaker 1: just for it to fall on deaf ears. I don't know,
52:34
Speaker 1: maybe something will be done about it, but it's important
52:35
Speaker 1: to call it out. Great, great work from your organization.
52:38
Speaker 1: And thank you so much for being here and offering
52:40
Speaker 1: your take on this.
52:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, thanks for having me.
52:42
Speaker 1: Good seeing you. Yeah, great seeing you too. Before we
52:45
Speaker 1: go tonight, I want to make a personal request. A
52:49
Speaker 1: dear friend of mine and her family, they're going through
52:51
Speaker 1: something that no parent ever wants to go through. Her son, Kai,
52:56
Speaker 1: he's about to undergo brain surgery to remove a tumor.
52:59
Speaker 1: Starting tomorrow, they're beginning a nine-day prayer devotion, asking for
53:03
Speaker 1: Kai's complete healing and for strength and peace for his
53:07
Speaker 1: mom and the whole family. Now, if you're a praying person,
53:10
