  Speaker 1: JD. Vans he's got some unusual activities today that he's doing.

• 0:42
  Speaker 1: There's some interesting information there. We'll get to Mom Donnie.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: We'll get to the knick. Of course, we'll get to
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the parade and Gavin Newsom and a whole lot more so.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: The investigation is underway into Gavin Newsom. Apparently it's been
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: underway for weeks now. He is no about it because
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: a lot of documents have been subpoened.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: They've been issuing grand jury subpoenas to people to testify.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So knew some new about this for weeks and decided
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: to make it public and to go on the counter attack.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: And of course, why howdia you know defend yourself in
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: this and well, you claim it's Trump. It's law fair.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: He's out to get me because I'm running against him.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: You claim all that kind of stuff.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump isn't just coming after me because of my
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: mean tweets. He's coming after me because I'm considering running
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: for president, because he hates that I've consistently called him
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: out over and over again for his lies and deceit.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not used to being attacked Trump. Oh, it
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: must have really shook him up to be attacked for
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the first time anybody now, Actually, uh, and that's funny.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Newsom still will not admit he's running. Keeps saying he's
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: considering running, and he used the old Trump line, He's
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: not coming after me, He's coming after you and all
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: that stuff. A big part of this is his wife, Jennifer.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: That's who really has got the problem. They're scrutinizing the finances,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the salaries and the transactions, payments and stuff from her
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: nonprofit that she was running, the Representation Project. This is
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: her nonprofit where you can raise money in certain ways.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: It's a nonprofit, it's a charity. It's at five oh
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: one C three. But apparently some money they believe went
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: from that into her for profit film production company. Now
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you can't do that. That's illegal. In other words, if
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you're a charity and you receive money into your charity,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: you can give it to other charitable causes. It's charity money.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: It can only go to charitable stuff. It can't go
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to for profit stuff. Otherwise, every con man would just
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: set up a charity, raise money for his charity and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: then transfer it over to him or to his own business.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: You can't do that. So they're examining. And this is
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: a lot millions of dollars in donations that the Newsom's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: solicited for this nonprofit, millions and millions of dollars. And
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Newsom has his own nonprofit, the California Partners Project, including
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: funds from all kinds of people. And remember he's the governor,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: so a lot of people donate to his charity, hoping
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: to ingratiate themselves with the governor. Now, if any of
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: that money got transferred to anything else except charity, he's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: got a problem. There's former staff, his former chief of
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: staff is being investigated and the former chief of staff,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Dana Williamson, pled guilty to federal fraud and tax charges.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Now this was in a separate matter, but did admit
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to federal fraud and tax charges. Separate matter. But Jogly
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the type of guy this was. If it's Dana, a
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: guy or a woman, I don't know, but there's some definitely,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: definitely could have a problem of going through documents.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: They're demanding records, they're abusing the grand jury process, digging
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: through years and years of random documents.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Well, I think that's what you do an investigation with
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: a grand jury. I think you go through records.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: of family, friends and former employees, not because they found
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: a crime, because they're simply trying to find one.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Well, but again, from what I hear, it's not just smoke,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: there's some fire here. You know. This is the same
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: defense that John Bolton used. And of course in the end,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: even he had to admit he was one thousand percent guilty.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It wasn't just law fair. He really was guilty. This
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: happens so even in the case of Hillary Clinton, although
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: the dirty cop called me was in charge and let
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: her go into decline to prosecute, he did admit in
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that press com she was guilty as hell of taking illegally,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: taking all sorts of classified documents, top secret classified stuff,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: and putting it on her home computer. So case of Bolton,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: case of Hillary made it sound like they were being
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: targeted because they were Trump enemies. Turns out they were
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: both very very very guilty.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: of family friends.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: We already heard that. Here's another one. This is more newsome.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump is simply the most corrupt president in American history.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: He's turned the lovers of government into his own personal
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: power ministries to reward cronies and to try to jail
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: his opponents. So let me say it again, mister president,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: come after me. I'm not going anywhere, and the country
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: is watching.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that sounds pretty good there, But again it's
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the same stuff John Bolton said, And it turned out
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: he was absolutely guilty of everything he was accused of.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: And you know, Democrats knew some all these times that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: they love hyperbole.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump is simply the most corrupt president in American history.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: He's turned the lovers of government into his own personal
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: power ministries to reward cronies and to try to jail
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: his opponents.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Think that I think that was Biden and America Garland,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: if I recall, I think I think it was Robert
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Muller and Andrew Wiseman. I think that was going on
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: for four years, and this guy never ever said a
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: word about it. Hey, the Knicks Championship. The parade is
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Thursday morning.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: And part of the reason, mayor part of the reason
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: we're having this parade on Thursday, is to ensure the
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: players have enough time to bring their families because they've
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: been working their entire life for this.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, well, I think that's normal. Everybody brings
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: their family to the parade. Give them time. How much
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: time does it take to get your family here? You
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: got a day or two. So they had big apparently
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the Knicks, you know, they flew back from San Antonio.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: They got back, and then that night they had a
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: huge private party just for themselves at the exclusive the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: exclusive membership club, the fly Fish Club. This is down
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: the Lower East Side. If you go in there, it
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't look so exclusive. You got to be
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a member or a coman a member. It's not exactly
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the Metropolitan Club. It's it's not exactly the University Club.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: It's it says exclusive. But it just looks like a
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Lower east Side nightclub with a doorman. That's about all
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: it is. But the Knicks had quite a party there.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: The parade through the Canyon of Heroes Thursday starts at
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Battery Park ends at City Hall where they have a
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: big ceremony there. Now it turns out that James Dolan
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: about well, I think it was about ten weeks ago.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I went into the locker room and gave them a
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: ten minute pep talk speech. It was quite moving. You
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: can go online and see it, but he videotaped it
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and it's up online. It's pretty powerful about what it
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: could mean. You know, these are all young guys, and
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: he said to them, you know, I don't know if
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: you really know how significant this will be receiving the
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: winning the championship. He said, it will change your lives.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: It'll follow you for the rest of your life. It's
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: a great thing. It was quite a speech, so I
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: don't know if you understand what it would mean. It
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: will stick with you for the rest of your lives.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: And if you don't win, you'll be thinking about it
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: for the rest of your life. But if you win,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it'll be life changing and if you do win, this
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: team will be belonging up in the rafters with the
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy Knicks and the nineteen seventy three Knicks. It
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: was a pretty powerful speech. And then he told them
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: he would they would each have a championship ring. He
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: even said, and I promise you, I'll buy a ring
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: for each one of your significant others because their contributions
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: are very important to this team. That's a pretty generous thing. Now,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: a championship ring about two thousand dollars. There's different championship rings,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: even the World Series rings. All of that. They're made
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: by Balfour that makes the college rings, or Jostin's does
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: some teams. Barren is a new company some teams have used,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: but it's the company makes the college rings. They just
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: make a bigger, fancier one. And sometimes when they make
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of these rings for the team and the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: staff and the coaches, the player ones are eighteen Carrett gold.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Those are like thirty five hundred and four thousand, but
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: the staff ones are like fourteen carrot gold. Those are
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: like two thousand, and it's not unusual to give them
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: the wives. In fact, some years owners George Steinberner would give.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, I got World series rings. George Steinberner would
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: give World series rings to his friends to There's a
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: lot of restaurants you can go to where the owners
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: got a World Series ring because George eight there. They're
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: often given out all the time, and usually for the wives.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Though it wasn't a ring, it was the top of
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the ring chain. It was like a necklace. Really beautiful,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: but quite a speech from Dolan. So Hey, jd Vance,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the vice president. Jd Vance will be on the View today.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Now he's got a book out. That's why you see
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: him on every show in the world. And he's been
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: on twenty seven shows in the last two days, and
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: every time he's on an exclusive interview, exclusive interview. I
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: just saw on seven shows in one hour, but it's
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: an exclusive interview. Today he'll be on the View with
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: those clucking hens. And I guess it's good. It'll create
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: some viral stuff, I guess, but I can't imagine there's
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: anybody watching the View who's going to buy a jd
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Vance book, So I don't know what the point is.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: He's also going to be on Megan Kelly's podcast. Now,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: this is interesting because she's in a dilemma here. She's
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: what's known as a clickhore, do anything to go viral,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: anything they clicks. That's why she says outrageous things all
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: the time. They call that a clickhore. There's plenty of
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: those around, but that's her. So she's got to decide
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: does she want to really beat them up and go
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: viral and get her clicks or something. She's trying to
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: worm her way back into Trump world. She's trying to
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: get back in the inner circle there. So will she
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: be nice to them? Will she be mean to them?
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see. But again, she doesn't have a
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: big audience. It looks like she does. But again, she's
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: paying for clicks, paying for likes, paying for followers, all
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: that kind of stuff everybody, everybody alleges behind the scenes.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: But she'll be doing that today. So and the other
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: thing you to remember the big publishers. If you're a
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: vice president, you get one of the top publishing companies
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: in the world. The big publishing houses, their public relations,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: their PR department are always the worst, always the worst.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: That's why all the great authors. I don't think vance
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: knew this, but all the great authors hire their own
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: top publicists to do the publicity. Because the publisher's publicists,
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: they're all twenty four years old. They got a list
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: of anything they can book you on, and they just
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: book you on anything and everything. But expect some fireworks
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: from the view today. You don't have to watch it.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Just wait till later and the clips will come out.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: The Iran deal publicly, nobody likes it. They don't like
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: the idea of a deal. They don't like doing it.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: President Trump says, it'll be good. You know, you got
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: to trust the guy. He knows what he's doing. This
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: may be not the final chapter. This might be a
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: middle chapter, this deal. It's basically punting down the road
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: for a couple of months. People say, you know, a
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: lot of people say, well, he's playing chess. He's a
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: chess player. Well, I don't know if you know this.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Iran invented chess. It was invented in Iran, so they
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: know how to play chess. There here's President Trump, o flee.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: It's going to be a good relationship and we're going
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: to get along, and if we don't, we go back
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: to where we started. But I don't think it's going
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: to be necessary.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: No, that's the key may look like a bad deal,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: but if that's the case, go right back to bombing
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the hell out of them.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: He straight it's open now, but it opens completely wab
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: all the mines, knocks out them for the most but
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: we have a lot of aids right now already.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he opened the straight a couple of weeks ago
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: for ships we were sneaking him through. Basically, he did
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: get a hundred million barrels through the straits, which is
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: why oil is way way down. Hang on, let me
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: check here. Oil down three dollars again today it's at
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: seventy six dollars, seventy eight dollars a barrel. Seventy eight dollars.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: That's down from like one hundred and ten down to
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: seventy eight. It's dramatically down. Oil is way down. Stock
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: market is way up. Rising to the fourth day in
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a row. It's it fifty two thousand, that down. Nobody
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: ever dreamed they'd ever see fifty thousand. It's at fifty
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: two thousand. Unbelievable. Hey, by the way, SpaceX two hundred
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: and seventeen dollars a year. It's up. But don't worry,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: they'll they'll be ups and down. So anyway, the deal
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: will be signed on Friday and then they'll release it
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and let everybody read it.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: This is a very powerful document and I want it
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: to be released, so probably pretty soon, I would say
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: after some time after Friday.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Friday, they're going to sign it in Switzerland. JD.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Vans will fly over there. He was a big part
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: of the negotiation to sign it.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Heels O sign and these trainers already partially opened. As
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: you know, they're doing a little hunting for a couple
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: of minds they've already found. But it's essentially ships is
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: starting to go out now. On Friday, it'll be completely opened.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So again publicly, I don't think anybody likes the deal. JD.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Vance gotten his name all over it as one of
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: the chief architects negotiators of this debt. You know, if
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: he wants to run, if it goes badly, then he's
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: stuck with that. You know, he's got he's got this
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: on his resume.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: Now we'll be releasing the text this week and what
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: everybody will see is that Iran doesn't get a dime
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: of money unless they perform their obligations. And the money
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: that we're talking about is fundamentally sanctions relief. We're not
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: giving them American money. Not a single dollar of American
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: money will go to Iran.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: All right, so there's gonna be a lot of criticism,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: and of course that Obama will be all over the
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: place loose, is fundamentally innocence the deal that I signed, Yeah,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: it's not even close. There's no resemblance anyway. We'll take
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two one zero
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: seven ten is the number, eight hundred three to two,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: one zero seven ten,
