Transcript
- 0:07Let's get right to it. Second hour, he's Jared, I'm Preston.
- 0:11It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott, and our guest is Lee Williams,
- 0:16the gun writer dot substack dot com. Lee, how in the world are
- 0:20you tired? I didn't sleep very well last night, worried about the state
- 0:26of the country. How about you, well, I see I go to
- 0:30bed before. Those types of things can affect my sleep. I come in
- 0:34early and ruin my day. But no, look, since you brought it
- 0:41up, it was a disaster and there's no way Democrats let Joe Biden be
- 0:46the nominee. That's been my take for a few years now. But what
- 0:49about you, well, I think the big lie is over. I want
- 0:54you to listen to a headline. It's a column I wrote it's time to
- 0:59talk about the president's mental health. The subtext is the mainstream media continues to
- 1:04ignore obvious signs that the president's cognitive abilities are declining. I wrote that on
- 1:11June twenty four, twenty twenty one, three years ago, and it's taken
- 1:17this long for the legacy, the corporate media to actually get out of the
- 1:22way and let Americans see what the hell is going on with Joe Biden.
- 1:26That was three years ago. I was calling on people to talk about Biden's
- 1:30cognitive issues. I hate to be right this way. That was disturbing last
- 1:37night. I'm glad the big lie is over, but you know there are
- 1:41other people around the world that saw that too. I'm wondering when we invade,
- 1:45when China invades Taiwan, I'm wondering how far Putin's going to go,
- 1:49what the fat boy king and North Korea is going to do. It was
- 1:53disgusting. Well, you know, the thing that I think is troubling to
- 1:57me Lee is that I believe that the moment Barack Obama left office and made
- 2:04residence in Washington, DC, he was going to make every effort to control
- 2:08the government. And I believe he is. I think he is in fact
- 2:12running the White House, and I think he has since Joe Biden took office.
- 2:16That might be the scariest part of all is that everything that's being done
- 2:21is being orchestrated by somebody else. Yeah, unelected bureaucrats, unelected former presidents,
- 2:29unelected, extremely lefty I would say, communist children who are getting their
- 2:36incredible agenda out there that America doesn't want because they're pulling Biden strings. And
- 2:42you know last night Jill Biden came across doctor Jill as just an evil,
- 2:46evil woman. I mean this was not bordering on elder abuse. This was
- 2:52elder abuse. Brother. Yeah, yeah, there's no doubt. The post
- 2:55debate party where she's trying to extol his virtues, he's looking around like he
- 3:00doesn't know where he is. You feel sorry for him until you recognize that
- 3:06he wanted this job so badly. I believe he sold his soul to the
- 3:08devil to have it, and we're paying the price for it as a nation.
- 3:15I mentioned to you, I've I've sat in stunned silence when I read
- 3:22that the Attorney General representing or the district attorney representing West Little Rock was not
- 3:29going to file any kind of charges and that that the the use of deadly
- 3:34force and the murder, the assassination of Brian Malinowski in Little Rock, Arkansas
- 3:39was legal and justified. Lee, What was your reaction? We knew it
- 3:46was going to happen. Unfortunately, I knew there were not going to be
- 3:50any charges against the ATF agent that murdered Melanowski in the No Knock search warrant
- 3:55of his home. We just could see that coming there were you know,
- 3:59after the killing. There are always two investigations that start. One the district
- 4:03attorney had decides whether or not to charge the ATF agent with murder. Okay,
- 4:08that's over. They're not going to charge anybody with anything. The other
- 4:12is an internal one that the ATF is doing to determine whether or not their
- 4:15agency violated policy. What do you think that one's gonna say? So?
- 4:18Yeah, for killing mister Melanosky in his home, terrorizing his wife, terrorizing
- 4:24his neighbors, The ATF is gonna walk away, just like they did after
- 4:28Fast and Furious, just like they did after Waco, just like they did
- 4:30after Ruby Ridge. That agency has never been held accountable. It certainly will
- 4:35not hold itself accountable. What happens next for the family. They could do
- 4:42a civil suit. It's gonna be difficult, but they have a former Attorney
- 4:46General of Arkansas as their personal attorney. I think. I don't know if
- 4:51they win. It's going to be difficult as hell, but they will be
- 4:55able to get some discovery and bring some issues to light. I'm sure ATF
- 5:01right now was scurrying. I can damn you're here, the shredders here in
- 5:05Sarasota, Florida from Arkansas. Uh. I guarantee you ATF is not gonna
- 5:11play along willingly with the civil suit. They're gonna drag their feet. Hopefully
- 5:16the Biden Harris administration will be gone soon and we can actually get people in
- 5:23charge of ATF who will hold that agency accountable before it's abolished. Nothing shows
- 5:30the need to get rid of ATF like the murder, like you said,
- 5:32the assassination of Brian Malanowski. I want to reset that for listeners who may
- 5:38not be fully up to speed on that story. Lee, standby to the
- 5:41men and women serving our great nation and our armed services, those serving communities
- 5:46as law enforcement officers and first responders, I say you are all essential workers.
- 5:51Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Twelve minutes past the hour,
- 6:01Lee Williams, the gunwriter. Whethers Lee reset Brian Malinowski and what the
- 6:06ATF claimed and what they accused him of doing and being and other ways they
- 6:14should have handled this. They really didn't have a good charge on Brian.
- 6:19They had surveiled him, they had his cell phoned, they had a tracker
- 6:26on his vehicle. They raided his home March nineteenth, and it just you
- 6:32know, he's fifty three years old. He's a former he was the current
- 6:35airport executive. He was a good guy, a guy that knew him that
- 6:40I spoke to. He said he was kind of a marshmallow. However,
- 6:43he sold some firearms at gun shows. So at the very least, at
- 6:47the very most, they had some type of process crime, some type of
- 6:50license crime. He did not have a federal firearms life. And they kicked
- 6:56him the door, no knock, they said. They waited for some seconds,
- 7:00but you know how that goes, kicking a door, and Brian thought
- 7:03he was defending himself against an armed home invaders, which he kind of was,
- 7:09and they shot him in the head. The protocols were completely out of
- 7:14whack. Arkansas State Police has investigated. They passed it off to the prosecuting
- 7:19attorney and that's that. It's a done deal. Nobody will be held accountable.
- 7:25We don't even know the name of the guy who shot him. Meanwhile,
- 7:29you got the lawmakers in Ohio ordered Jim Jordan ordered ATF to turn overall
- 7:34documents to the case. This thing may see, we may finally find out
- 7:39what happened there, but it's going to take a while. And nobody from
- 7:43the ATF has ever addressed this other than saying they followed policy. It's so
- 7:48sad. I mean it's literally thereby the grace of God who you and I
- 7:53Well, they obviously didn't follow policy because they didn't have their cameras running.
- 7:58No, they had no cameras, and they taped over the doorbell camera.
- 8:01So it's not to give any leave any evidence. I mean, this thing.
- 8:05All they had to do, since they knew the guy, like we've
- 8:09said before, was show up at his office and say, hey, you
- 8:11got to search warrns from your home, let's go. He worked at an
- 8:15airport. You think he's armed there, I highly doubt it. They could
- 8:18have pulled him over on the way home and hey, we got a search
- 8:20warran. They could have told his attorney, hey we got a search worm
- 8:22for your client, let's go. But instead it's ATF wanting to play commando
- 8:28like they do, and they always get in trouble. And now good Man
- 8:33is dead and his wife was held in the vehicle and a police car was
- 8:37thirty three. She's held in your night clothes for hours having seen her husband
- 8:41get shot in the head, and nobody's telling her the status, the mental
- 8:46anguish and mental torture that woman went through, she'll never overcome. Correct me
- 8:50if I'm wrong. In Arkansas, what he was engaging in. He was
- 8:54not just selling guns at gun shows. And it wasn't like he was selling
- 8:58them to make a lie living. He was buying and selling guns. I
- 9:01mean a lot of people do that. Ye. He was also buying and
- 9:05selling coins, wasn't he. Yeah, he had a great I always screw
- 9:09up this word newmismatic reputation for being a coin collector. And you know what,
- 9:15I hate to say, what ATF alleged he had done wrong with what
- 9:20potential charges they had on the guy, because he's not here to defend himself.
- 9:24So I know dozens of dudes that will go to gun shows and rent
- 9:28a table and move some guns if they no longer want and which is totally
- 9:31legal in Arkansas. Yet ATF killed him for it. Yeah, that's the
- 9:35point I wanted to make in Arkansas, what he engaged in. You know,
- 9:39though some might say, well he should have had a license. Okay,
- 9:41Well, let's adjudicate that they eliminated that opportunity. But in Arkansas,
- 9:46what he was engaged in was fully covered by the law. Yeah, it's
- 9:50debatable. It's debatable whether he needed a license or not. I mean,
- 9:56we could have that argument. I would say, you know, I know
- 9:58a lot of guys that don't. It's their hobby. And you know,
- 10:03he had a table, he had coins on the table. Too easy to
- 10:07make a case that he didn't. He eased to make a case he should
- 10:09have. But it's all moot now because he'll never be able to address those
- 10:13charges because as murdered the man in his own home. WFLR on your phone
- 10:18with the iHeartRadio app and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home,
- 10:22Xbox and Sonos and Ihearts Radio station twenty one past the Hour and the Break
- 10:31talking guns with Lee Williams. Imagine that the gunwriter dot substack dot com.
- 10:37All right, Lee, you've been busy pumping out content. Ironically, your
- 10:41latest post is surviving the Biden ad Man. Yeah. The upshot of this
- 10:48is that Joe Biden's policy. We look kind of pressyan for having this go
- 10:52out today, but we're not. It was lucky to draw long story short,
- 10:56We're not safe and Joe Biden's policies are making us less safe. And
- 11:00but here's the kicker. Even if Biden loses his reelection, and after the
- 11:03last night, it's obviously probably will, it's going to take years to undo
- 11:07the damage he's caused in this country. We're going to be living with threats
- 11:11that he is allowed to stream across our border for at least a decade.
- 11:16And as far as threats go, I mean, look who he's allowed gang
- 11:22members, cartel members, actual terrorists from Isis k Man And then you have
- 11:28these horrible, horrible crimes that these Venezuelan illegal immigrants are committee that the legacy
- 11:33media is just totally ignoring because they don't want to connect the dots because that
- 11:37could implicate Biden and that can harm us reelection chances. So we came out
- 11:41with some ideas how to you know, stay informed, get good instruction,
- 11:48learn how to gunfight, get some first aid training. Key triple C is
- 11:52probably the best. And we have to protect our Second Amendment because it's still
- 11:56under threat. And buddy, if we lose that, and we've never had
- 11:58a present and it was damaged and tried to damage the Second Amendment more than
- 12:03Joe we lose a Second Amendment game over. Yeah, I talked about it
- 12:07earlier this week. It's the one that protects all the rest. You've also
- 12:11done a piece on the mass shooting data being manipulated. Oh, CDC is
- 12:22just you know, you wish these people would just stay in their lane.
- 12:26I guess that's the bottom line. Everybody is using data from the Gun Violence
- 12:31Archive. It's fake data. We've got Biden citing it like it's cool.
- 12:37He's using. Joe Biden wants there to be a lot of crime when he
- 12:43wants to talk about, you know, assault weapons bands. But now these
- 12:46days in reelection, he wants crime to go down. So when he wants
- 12:50crime stats to go up, he cites the gun violence Archives. When he
- 12:52wants to give the impression that crime is going down, he sins he cites
- 12:56the FBI. However, yeah, FBI showing violent crime is going down.
- 13:01But there's reasons for that. I mean, the biggest cities in the country,
- 13:05New York, LA, they've stopped supplying crime data to the FBI,
- 13:07So of course it looks like it's going down Biden. It's just his typical
- 13:11gas lighting of the facts. You'd see the upper down he wants to have
- 13:15it both ways, depending on what he's trying to get across and who his
- 13:18audience is. And of late, that has led to the US Surgeon General
- 13:24wink wink, nod, nod. I mean air quotes all around that declaring
- 13:30a health emergency for the purpose of what well, you know, in the
- 13:39administration, there should be some positions that are sacricaying and that are politics free.
- 13:45At least there have been. The Surgeon General was always one of them.
- 13:48Leave the Surgeon General alone, don't bring him in to pay, you
- 13:52know, play these games, these political games. But nope, Vivic Murphy,
- 13:56our surgeon General declared, quote unquote gun violence is a public health crisis,
- 14:01you know, gun ownership, like my boss Alan Gottlieb. But the
- 14:03Second Amendment Foundation said, and ownership is not a disease. Brother, This
- 14:07guy used gun violence archives stats to make his point two, and we've debunked
- 14:13them. Gosh, Preston, I don't know how many dozens of times.
- 14:16This is the Surgeon General of the United States using fake data to further hit
- 14:24the administration's gun control efforts. I mean, think about you talk about gas
- 14:26lighting the GVA. All this stuff is made up they said they have such
- 14:31a wide open definition of what constitutes a mass shooting. They said they're four
- 14:37hundred and seventeen mass shootings. In twenty nineteen, FBI said there were thirty.
- 14:41This is the type of data our US Surgeon General is citing to further
- 14:48gun control efforts by the administration. It's sick and the Journal of the American
- 14:54Medical Associations jumping on board. They've just released a piece trying to bolster these
- 15:00claims. And you're right, we're putting this stuff in places where, quite
- 15:05honestly, they're going to create more soft zones. They're going to create more
- 15:09targets, and it's going to be worse. Yeah, they're going to get
- 15:15people killed. They're going to create gun free zones, which has always been
- 15:16their goal. They know the Second Amendment will prevent them. They know they
- 15:20can't get an assault weapon ban through Congress. So once again Joe's using his
- 15:26executive orders. They're going to declare places off limits, which creates gun free
- 15:33zones. And gun free zones are a magnet for mayhem. That's where these
- 15:35sick individuals go to commit these atrocities. Lee As always look forward to your
