• 0:54
  Speaker 4: James Coby, former director of the FBI, indicted. Arrest warrants
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: have been filed along with the indictment. The Attorney General
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: of the United States joined the current FBI director, Cash
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: Pattel to make this announcement, and we've got some audio
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: of that. Check this out. Good afternoon.
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: Today, a grand jury sitting in the Eastern District of
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: North Carolina returned an indictment against James call Me on
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: two counts. The first count is a honor about May
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: fifteenth of last year, he knowingly and wilfully making a
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: threat to take the life of and to inflict bodily
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: harm upon the President of the United States. Count two,
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: same day, May fifteenth, twenty twenty five, that the defendant
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: James call Me, knowingly and wilfully transmitting an interstate commerce
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: a communication that contained a threat to kill the President
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: of the United States. Both of these counts carry a
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: maximum term of imprisonment of ten years.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Good afternoon. Now that wasn't all he had to say.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: He went on. He actually started sparring with a reporter.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: But before that happened, I wanted to get to Cash
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: pttel Or, the FBI director who also weighed in on
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: the arrest of James Comy. From the investigative perspective. Listen
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: to this one, Cash Pattel, as.
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: You heard from the Attorney General in the US attorney
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: former FBI Director James Comy has now been indicted for
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: two felony counts. While many of you may read this
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: indictment in view this matter as a simple investigation, is
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: the farthest thing from that. Every single investigation this FBI
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: and our partners at the Department of Justice undertake, especially
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: those that involve the threats to harm or hurt or
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: even kill individuals, whether they behold public office or civilians
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: in our country, are met with the same measure of
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: investigative prowess and tools and personnel in partnership with the
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: Department of Justice as anyone else. As the US Attorney indicated,
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: James Comey will be afforded every matter of due process
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: under the United States Constitution, And as the Attorney General indicated,
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: this has been a case that's been investigated over the
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: past nine ten eleves months. These cases take time. Our
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: investigators work methodically. They are career agents, career prosecutors who
• 3:07
  Speaker 6: work these matters. They call the balls and strikes in
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: the field as they see fit pursuant to the facts
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: of the case and the law. They took that information
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: and made a presentment to a grand jury, a jury
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: of a peers in the district in which the alleged
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: crime took place, and that grand jury spoke, and that
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: grand jury returned to two count indictment against James Comy.
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: James Comy allegedly threatened the life of the President of
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: the United States, and as you all now know, shortly
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: after posting that threat, he deleted that threat and then
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: issued an apology. All of that information was presented to
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: the grand jury, and mister Komy will have his day
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: in court and his ability to speak to a jury
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: of his peers.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Thank you. Now, that again is Cash Mattel, the director
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: of the FBI, discussing the investigative part of this, the
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: actual arrest that is likely forthcoming. Now, how do we
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: know there's a arrest coming because there were arrest documents
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: in the actual indictment package. And this is an interesting thing,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: and CNN gets into that. I'm going to get you
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: that audio in a moment. But what I thought was
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: really interesting here is that the media is holding on
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: to something that Director Patel just mentioned, which is the
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: fact that James Comey posted this threat to Instagram in
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: a cryptic manner. Right. He put eighty six forty seven,
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: which was an old mob term which is used in
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: restaurants as well to eighty six to nix, to kill,
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: to dead that and forty seven being the forty seventh
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: president of the United States. And of course he did
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: it so that he would have plausible deniability, so that
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: he could say, look, I didn't really, I don't know
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: what they're talking about. I thought like exactly like he did.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: And he said, when they thought it was whatever, I
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: took it down right. Same thing they were saying about
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: ed Trumpeto with the picture of him wearing the white
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: robe in the red vestiment around him, you know where
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: he said, I thought I was a doctor, and they're saying,
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: they look like Jesus. He looked like the cartoon Jesus.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: So many kids have grown up with. Right, people do
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: things to push the envelope. Sometimes I get that the
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: difference is Trump putting a picture of Jesus healing people
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: and doing whatever, really to get at the enemy, right,
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: because we're in a time of war with Iran, and
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: he posted this specifically at that time, I would suggest
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: to ruffle their feathers, not to ruffle mine. But whatever
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: the case may be. In my speculation aside, James Comy
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: did this, and it is in contravention of the law right.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: It is against the law. At least this is what
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: they're alleging, and a grand jury decided that they were right.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: So this is a very different charge than the first
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: time that they indicted him on some process crimes, which
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: it was a summons to appear. This time around, there's
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: an actual warrant for his arrest. Now I don't know
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: if they're going to negotiate, you know, one of those
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: things where he doesn't get handcuffed. He walks in and
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: they take his picture and they're all nice to him
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: and deferential, which likely will be the case where you
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: know he's gonna you know, charm them and be the
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: former FBI director and get treated with that level of respect. However,
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: it is going to be an arrest, and these are
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: criminal charges, and each one carries ten years, and I
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: don't know if they're going to get a conviction or not.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: And this broke a little while ago, so I didn't
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: have the time to get in touch with our production
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: team and get Doug Burns on the phone, our friend
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: from the former Department of Justice head over there, chief
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: of the Criminal Division. But I can tell you from
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: what I'm looking at that I don't think they're going
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: to take this shot unless they think it can inflict
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: some sort of damage. Now there's a political upside to this, right,
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: The political upside is people have been saying we want accountability,
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: we want blood. So this actually, in effect, there's a
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: part of the base, the magabase at least, that says, hey,
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: we want to see people pay for the crimes they've committed,
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: and James Comy is chief among them. Now, I know
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: I have so many friends that don't follow politics, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: some of my friends do follow politics but disagree with
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: me vehemently on this stuff. Excuse me, however, our difference
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: is aside. We have to try to remain objective here
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: and realize that there was I'm going to use the
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: term Mark Levin coined, a soft coup, right, a soft coup.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: It wasn't a full on coup where they used the
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: military to overthrow the government, but they tried to usurp
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: the power of candidate Trump and then President Trump in
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: this Russia Russia Russia hoax. Excuse me, frog in the throat,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: I guess I should say a little coquie in my throat. Anyway,
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: the bottom line here is that really happened. Now, some
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: people will never admit that that happened, that the Russia Russia, Russia,
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Russia Gate, Russia hoax, that it didn't happen, that this
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: was all a fabrication. But the reality is James Komi
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: was involved in this. So was President Obama, So was
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: Vice President Biden at the time. All right, Valerie Jared,
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: the whole crew, James Clapper, John Brennan, these people were
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: all instrumental in coming up with this strategy. Hillary Clinton
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: then candidate right with the fabrication of the Steel dossier
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: that said that President Trump was urinating on Russian hookers.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: All this stuff was fabricated, It was fake, it was phony,
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: was fraud, It was proven to be fraud. Right. Even
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: the Muller investigation proved this. At the end of the day.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: They didn't hold anyone accountable, but they said that Trump
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: didn't do those things, and so did the John Brennan,
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Not John Brennan, what's the other John guy? Oh, geez,
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: I'm forgetting his name, but the other Independent Council. Bottom
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: line here, this stuff happened, whether people choose to, and
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: somebody went to jail, right, Kevin Kleinsmith went to jail
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: for fabricating. He's an FBI lawyer that fabricated an email
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: to get this stuff done. We had FISA overhaul last
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: year because of the abuse of the FISA system, the
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and the court that they used
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: to get these warrants to surveil people. So we can't
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: bury our head in the sand and say that these
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: things didn't happen just because we don't like Trump or
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: we don't like the way he presents it in the media.
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: These things did happen. There was an active political attempt
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: to take away the power he had as president, and
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: I would say ultimately topple him as president, and it failed.
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: Now potentially the goal was maybe just to hurt him right,
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: to hurt him politically and slow him down and stymy him,
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: which again criminal, right, I mean, that is in effect
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: a coup when you try to slow someone down through
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: lawfare and whatnot. So all of that happened, And if
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: you don't believe me, I want you to look it
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: up on your own time, look it up independently and
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: realize that although people weren't held accountable, the documents, the
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: Moller investigation and the.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: You know, let me look this up. I can't believe
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: I'm forgetting.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: His name, John Durham. There we go. I can't believe
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: that that escaped me like that. The Durham Report that
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: he issued, and there was also the Inspector General's report, Horowitz.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: These are all documents that if you want to argue
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: with me, or you want to argue with anybody, you
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: should read them in their entirety. You know, some of
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: them are very long documents, but you should read them
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: so you understand exactly what's in these documents because they
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: say a lot of stuff. And again, just because people
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: didn't go to jail doesn't mean these things didn't happen.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: And that's where this appetite comes from for people that
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: did do this. Reading the people that said, you know what,
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna instead of watching the game, instead of taking
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: my kids to the park, instead of doing whatever I
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: normally would do, I'm going to become an internet sleuth.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: I'm going to become a detective over here to start
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: taking apart things I would never have done in the past.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Because people were being lied to left and right by
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: the fake news media. And that's why we call them
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: the fake news media, because they were carrying the water
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: for the fake news doing the work of i should say,
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: of the left within the Democrat Party, And when people
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: realized what was in there, they said, man, these people
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: have to be held to account. But it seems that
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: the media hasn't learned its lesson. They are still at
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: it just the same way. They haven't learned a damn
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: thing right. In fact, the media and one of their
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: first questions to Attorney General Todd blanche the first question
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: they have is, well, Director Patel just said that James
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Comy posted this threat alleged threat to Instagram and then
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: he took it right down. So you know, what's the
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: big deal. How are you going to prosecute him for
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: that crime? Literally acting as a defense attorney for James Comy,
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: I thought you were the media man. Listen to this,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: go ahead, sir.
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: How will you prove intent when, as the director had acknowledged,
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: mister Comy said he did not associate eighty six with
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: doing harm and he took it down promptly said it
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: was political speech, not an intent.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: To harm the president.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Now, hold on a second, I just want to be
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: clear here. This is in fact a reporter saying, look
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: he did it. He said he was sorry, How are
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: you going to prosecute him for this crime? How are
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: you going to prove that he really meant to harm
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: the president and he really wanted somebody to take that
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: threat actively. Just imagine any other person committing a crime
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: and the media asking this type of question. Well, I
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: mean he said, he was sorry. Right, this is a act, right,
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: this is not a traffic infraction. Just imagine any criminal
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: act you fill in the blank that you've committed you're
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: being accused of, and all of a sudden, the media
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: just comes in and says, oh, yeah, you know what
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: he said.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: It was sorry. I mean, what's the big deal?
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Imagine getting pulled over by the police and the cops said, hey,
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: look you're doing you know, ninety and a sixty five
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: and you go. But listen, I said, I was sorry,
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: what's the big deal? On what planet? Is that a
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: justifiable defense? But listen to what Attorney General Todd Blanche
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: had to say. Brilliant, brilliant response.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: This case was indicted today. This conduct occurred about a
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: year ago, May fifteenth of last year. There's been a
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: tremendous amount of investigation, and how do you prove intent
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: in any case, you prove intent with witnesses, with documents,
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: with the defendant himself to the extent, to the extent
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: is appropriate, and that's how we'll improve an intent in
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: this case. And so I think that talking about what
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: mister Calemy will do will not do if there's a trial.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: When there's a trial, it's not as very premature for
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: me to do that today.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Outstanding slow clap for Attorney General Todd Blanche. This response,
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: like many of his responses, was in fact a master
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: class in taking these people on. He never takes their bait, right,
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: they try to throw him off with but he said,
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: he was sorry, how are you going to do this?
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: How are you going to do putting him somehow at
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: a deficit and him standing his ground and saying, hold
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: on a second, let me make this extraordinarily clear to you.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: We're gonna do what we do in every single case.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I loved it. I thought that was a brilliant response.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: And the fake news media is so good at getting people,
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: in particular politicians to take the bait. And that's why
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: I like Todd Blanch because he was the president's defense
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: lawyer on the.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Hush money case. Right, the alleged hush money case.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: And what was interesting about this was he was just
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: a good lawyer. He was a good lawyer, and now
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: he's here, and now he was a deputy ag. Now
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: he is the acting AG. And I think Todd blanche
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: is fantastic because he's not a politician, because he's a litigator,
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: because he's really tried and tested. I don't know, a
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: year and a half or two years ago, this guy
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: was in a courtroom defending his client, Donald Trump and others.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: I love that. I love that he is truly independent
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: and away from the sphere of politics. This is not
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: somebody that's coming to the table where you know, we're
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: reading this long resume saying he was Attorney General of
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: the state of blah blah blah. Before that, he was
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: a county prosecutor. Was somebody with a decade or two
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: decades of experience in government service as an attorney. And yes,
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: I am disparaging that, right, I'm not saying exclusively that
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: it's a bad thing. And in fact, whenever I have
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: questions about these things, I bring in somebody that had
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: decades of experience working for the Department of Justice. Doug Burns.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: He's my go to on these things, and you'll be
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: hearing from him in a couple of days for sure,
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: when you know is this develops with Komy. But my
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: point is that sometimes if you want someone in an
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: independent position and you want them to think like a lawyer,
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: you want them to be free of things, what do
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: you do. You get a guy like Todd Blanche. You
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: get a guy like Donald Trump who's been building buildings
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: for forty years, not messing around with the government for
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: forty years or thirty years or twenty years, who's free
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: from all of that swampiness. And that's how you get
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: the ball rolling in the right direction. You bring about
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: a real change. So kudos to El Trompito, kudos to
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: Todd Blanche, and even kudos here I'm going to give
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: to CNN because CNN weighed in on their analysis here
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: of the indictment and one of the charges, the most serious,
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: I would say, is threatening the life of the President
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: that James Comy is facing. And this is the legal
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: analysis from CNN. I want you to listen to how
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: they break it down.
• 16:03
  Speaker 8: I'm looking at this doc at Casey as the prosecutors
• 16:05
  Speaker 8: are putting different things in there, and there's an arrest
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: warrant that is in the docket for James Comy. I
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: was able to see it on through the court's system,
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: and it says that the marshals are being asked to
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: both provide Comy with the indictment and they are issuing
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: an arrest warrant. We don't know what that means, but
• 16:26
  Speaker 8: I will say as far as the docket goes, it's
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: a very different thing than how this played out in
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: the Eastern District of Virginia. When Comy was indicted there
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: on the perjury count. A summons was issued instead, So
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: that would be a direct missive to Komy to say
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: it's time to appear in court to face this charge
• 16:45
  Speaker 8: on said day. That's a bit of a different thing.
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: But Casey, this is a very fluid situation. Given that
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: we are just getting court documents in one at a time.
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: I am able to see the warrant request from the
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: Justice Department potentially escal things in a way that they
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: hadn't with the Eastern District of Virginia perjury case previously
• 17:06
  Speaker 8: against Komy that was dismissed. But I'm going to keep
• 17:10
  Speaker 8: watching here to see how else this plays out.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: And again that is Caitlin Pollins, the legal analyst at CNN,
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: giving her analysis on this, and again, I'm pretty sure
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: if I had to bet on this, I would bet
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: that these guys, neither of them, these women are fans
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: of Eldrompeito, fans of the president. They're not maga people.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: They're calling it the way they're calling it because those
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: are the facts, right, This is a real charge. Now
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: the question is will a jury of his peers agree.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm never convinced on that. I do
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: truly feel, and I hope that I'm wrong. I hope
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: it's me being jaded. I hope it's me being stuck
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: in my own bubble that I believe that most Democrats
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: truly are above the law. They can do whatever they
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: want and nobody's going to touch them. Because we are
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: in a post vigilante society. We live in a place
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: where there is no accountability or very little accountability. Right,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: people truly can amass a level of political power that
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: can get them multiple get out of jail for free cards.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: I believe that to be true. I've seen it time
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: and again. Even if it looks like you're not right,
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: I'll give you an example the other day, I saw
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: a video, and again I don't know the adjudication of this.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: I'm just speaking out of my rear end here, pure conjecture,
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: pure opinion, free speech. I saw a video of a
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: rapper's son and he's driving an expensive car and he
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: gets pulled over by the police. The police ask him,
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: you know whatever, and he says, hey, do me a
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: favorite get out of the car. And the kid says,
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: I don't feel safe getting out of the car. You're
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: pulling me over for what to tell me to get
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: out of the car. What's going on here? Now? I'm
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: going to tell you that I would likely feel the
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: same way. I know that you know the standard line
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: is just cooperate and everything will be I get that.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: But I also understand that I'm a citizen of the
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: United States, and if you want to pull me over
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: and ask for my license and my paperwork, that's part
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: of how the deal works, right. I get to drive
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: on your roads, you get to pull me over getting
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: me out of the car. I'm old enough to know
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: that the minute you're asked to get out of the car,
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: you're going to jail. There might be a point one
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: percent chance that you're not going to jail, but you're
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: going to jail. It's just a process, right, It starts
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: all right, Just do me a favorite, Hang up by
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: the front of the car for me, do me a favorite.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Just hang out by the back of the car for me.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: It's always do me a favor, right, It's always doing
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: the government to favor. And I'm super pro police. My
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: brothers are cops, are retired now from the NYPD. My
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: other brother retired from the NYPD, went on to be
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: a FED and he just retired from that. And I
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: volunteered with the police in Nutley, New Jersey as a
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: volunteer cop for a couple of years. I went to
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: the Police CA Academy and everything, albeit abbreviated. But my
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: point is I support the men and women in law enforcement.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: I back the blue, but I support the constitution even more.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: And sometimes and I know that this is in fact
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: a thing, at least in the state that I live in, in
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: New Jersey, some cops are constitutionally illiterate and they don't care.
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: They feel that they have the tools and the position
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: of authority, and that that authority supersedes your rights, and
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: that by them asking you to do them a favor
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: and do this and come over here and asking you
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: questions that you are not allowed to refuse, that you
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: are not allowed to exercise your rights. And I like
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: to exercise my rights because I don't like the government
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: knowing my business. I want you to know my business.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: You want to know my business. Listen to my show anyway.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Bottom line is, I'm not here to give anybody a
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: hard time. But this guy says, look, and I thought
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: quite respectfully. The young man tells the copy. He's like, look,
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: I don't feel safe about this. I don't want to
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: get out of the car. And he's like, tell me
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: what's going on? Going on? So, after like four or
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: five requests, the cop says, I see there's a gun
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: on your dashboard, and I want to separate you from
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: that gun. I want you to get out the car.
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: So now this is where i'd say it goes sideways.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: It's a licensed gun. The kid is rich, he has
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: a nice car, he's probably got a lot of jewelry on.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: He wants to protect himself. He's in a state where
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: you can carry Nothing wrong with him having a gun.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: But the cop felt uncomfortable. I get that too, I
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: totally get that. These things can escalate quickly, and that
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: cop wants to go home alive, and I support that.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: So the young man at that point calls his lawyer,
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: gets the lawyer on FaceTime, and the lawyer says, listen,
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: if they're telling you to get out of the get
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: out of the car, that's it, you know what I mean.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: We're at that point getting locked up. So he gets
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: locked up anyway. The rapper's dad, I mean the rapper dad, right,
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: because this is the son of a rapper. The rapper
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: dad shows up and he's like, is there any way
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: we could fix this? Did he explain to you that
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: he wasn't feeling safe? And at the end of the day,
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: I have to side on the side of the cop here, right,
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: I think the cop did everything right. Maybe he in
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: the beginning wasn't very clear. But bottom line here is
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: you don't get to get into this back and forth.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: You can when you're within your rights, but when it's over,
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: it's over. And the question here is going to be
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: is it over for James Comy. I don't know if
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: it's going to be over for James Comy. I do
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: believe that in the case that I'm making here for
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: the rapper. That kid went to jail that night. So
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: for some justice was done, somehow we got a bad guy.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: I don't know if this guy was speeding, if he
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: got pulled over for having tinted windows. I don't know
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: what they pulled this kid over for. But he didn't.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: He didn't act as a criminal. Maybe he looked like
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: what that cop thought was a criminal, but he wasn't
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: doing anything that was a crime. It wasn't a crime
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: to have a gun. It wasn't a crime. It's not
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: even a crime to drive fast, right, it's a violation
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: of whatever the ordinances. So my bottom line here is
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: I'm not here to defend the criminal. I'm here to
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: defend what's right. And I would bet you my bottom
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: dollar that the influence and the power that this rapper
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: dad had likely got this kid off, right. He probably
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: got a great lawyer that has great connections and went
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: in there and said look, Mike, and rightfully so. But
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: I would say that if that were me, I'd probably
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: get in trouble for something, right, just like every other
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: time that I've been innocent and had gotten a ticket.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: You know, I got a ticket once because there was
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: a leaf on a windy day. A leaf like attached
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: to a little tiny piece of a branch had gotten
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: stuck on my license plate. And you could see the
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: license plate and has six letters on it, and you
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: could see five of them, but the sixth one was
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: kind of covered with the leaf. I was pulled over
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: by the Port Authority police on the George Washington Bridge
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: going to work and this man through the loud speaker, driver,
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: put your hands out the window, take the keys out,
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: throw them on the roof. I never in my life
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: have been pulled over that way in the middle of
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: the day drive into work. I was so nervous. I
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: didn't understand the commands. I could barely hear what he
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: was yelling. He comes over barking up a storm, yelling
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: at me like I just killed somebody. And he's like,
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: I told you to put the keys on the roof.
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: What's wrong with you? You no hand on the gun?
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: All that stuff that they do. And I was just like,
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: what is going on here? Like what did I do?
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: Was I speeding? Like what is your beef? And he
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: tells me, oh, you always drive around with your license
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: plate covered up. I was like, I don't even know
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: what you're talking about anyway. Do you think I got
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: a warning? Nope? I got a ticket for obstructing government property.
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: Apparently your license plate is government property. I also got
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: a ticket for toll evasion. And I said, what told
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: did I evade? I have an easy pass. I went
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: through the easy pass. The easy pass pays the easy pass.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: He's like, you have a receipt. I said, it's easy passed,
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: it's online. He's like, all right, then prove it when
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: you go to court. So just imagine that they charged
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: me with this. I had to prove that I did
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: not commit any infraction for no reason. Right. You think
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: I got out of that place scott free, even though
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: I was completely innocent of anything. Nope. The prosecutor when
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: I went to court said, oh, I showed him the
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: easy pass. He's like, all right, we'll get rid of
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: the toll evasion, but you're going to get the plate
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: or the vice versa. He's like, you got it. One
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: of these tickets you're going to get and court cost
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: of thirty five dollars or fifty dollars or something like that.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: And I thought to myself, because the wind deposited a
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: leaf on my car that I didn't realize on my
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: back license plate front license plate was not obstructed anyway,
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: and I live in a state where you have to
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: have two license plates. I ended up paying a ticket
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: for something I didn't do. I was found guilty of
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: this infraction of whichever one it was, either obstructing government property,
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: which was covering the plate because the plate technically below
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: belongs to the state, so that's the government property, or whatever.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: The other charge was total evasion. I thought I was respectful.
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: Was I scared? Definitely? Did he think I was uncooperative?
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: Probably because I couldn't hear him yelling at me through
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: the loud speaker, Because he didn't pull me over like
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: a normal person, and pulled me over on the Washington Bridge,
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: like on the actual bridge, like didn't even wait for
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: me to get off or into a shoulder or anything
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: like in the actual lane. The whole thing was wild.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: And I bring all that up to say there are
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: times where police can be unreasonable. And I'm so off
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: topic here, but hopefully it was an interesting story for you.
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: They threw the book at me, right. I ended up
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: having to pay at least one of those two tickets,
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: even though in my opinion, I did nothing wrong, and
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: this kid, I would bet you, And maybe I'll do
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: some research and find out if I'm right or wrong.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: But I'm sure he's going to get off. Even if
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: he went to jail that day. I'm sure there's no charge,
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: there's no record. I'm sure everything will be wipe clean
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: because in fact, I'd say he did nothing wrong either
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: other than maybe not get out of the when he
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: was asked to. But did he have to get out
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: of the car right? Was it an absolute imperative? I
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: don't know. I don't know the law in that state,
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: but to me, it sounds like are you pulling out
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: every single person that has a gun in their car?
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: And I understand some people will have their gun on
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: their hip and they'll say, hey, yeah, you know it's
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: a constitutional carry state. I have a gun on my
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: right hip and the three o'clock position. What's going on?
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: How can I help you? You could do that. This
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: guy's gun was in plain view and his hands were
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: on the steering wheel.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: So again, I think the argument can benate both ways.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: But my point is his dad's power and influence I
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: would bet got him out now. If that's going to
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: happen with a rapper and his son and somebody who
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: has money. Imagine what happens when your James call me
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: the former director of the FBI. When you are connected
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: to a deep state apparatus, and I use the term
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: deep state, I don't want to lose anybody, but I'll
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: say it in a more polished term, the administrative state. Right,
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: when you are connected to many career people apparatics in
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: the federal government may be retired. What do you think
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: FBI guys do when they retire. Do they cut their
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: grass and just go to the yard and grill, or
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: do they go and take very high powered positions in
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: different places? Right? Many of them are lawyers, so they
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: go and they start practicing law. Many of them become
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: as lawyers. They go on to be judges, they go
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: on to be you know, all sorts of different things.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: When you're a former director, I'm sure you make some
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: enemies along the way, but I'm pretty sure you make
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: a lot of friends along the way too, especially when
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: you were the FBI director. And like many FBI directors,
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: you have to work with the media. So you make
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: friends in the media that you know, you leak to
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: over the years, and when it's your turn now you
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: get the media come into your defense saying, well, how
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: do you intend to prove intent? And that's the point
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: I'm making. So I am not extraordinarily confident that James
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: Comby is going to be found guilty on this stuff.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: I hope I'm wrong. I really do. I hope that
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: I am dead wrong, because I would love to see
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: some accountability here, but mainly not because of an instagram
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: that' say eighty six forty seven, but because he actually
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: tried to usurp the authority of a sitting president of
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: the United States, and prior to that, he actively engaged
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: in using the power of his office in a way
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: that was, I'm going to say, not not lawful. When
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: he did the whole memo for Hillary Clinton saying I
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: think Hillary and yeah, he swayed it in my opinion
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: for Trump. And I'm not saying I didn't want Trump
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: to win. I did. But I still think what James
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: Gomi did was wrong. What FBI director gets to go
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: and play, you know, judge, jury executioner, all that he's
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: not the ag He doesn't determine what happens. If he
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: thinks there's a crime he should call his version of
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: Todd Blanche at the time of Loretta Lynch, and he
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: should have said, hey, look, I think this is what's
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: going on Hillary Clinton. But instead he took it upon
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: himself to hold a major press conference and read this
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: famous memo of his saying I think what she did
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: was stupid and incompetent and whatever other words he used.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: But ultimately he says, but I don't think there's a
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: crime here, so take care. That's it. I don't think
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: it works that way, sir. Bottom line, I don't know
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: what happens here with Comy. I hope we get some
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: poetic justice. I'm just not holding my breath anyway. I
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: was a little long winded there, but we're coming back.
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: Guess who's in town?
• 30:16
  Speaker 9: Elray, El Ray joins El Trumpito done all this, magnus,
• 30:21
  Speaker 9: the forty fifth to forty seventh president of these United States,
• 30:24
  Speaker 9: who's ruffling all sorts of feathers for the British crown,
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: King Charles visiting, giving an address in Congress, and then
• 30:31
  Speaker 9: a little bit later he goes over to the White House.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: We're gonna bring you that as that happens, don't go anywhere.
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: I'm rich Faldes.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: This is America. This is America.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: The forty fifth President Donald Trump thinks it's an honor
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: to speak with Rich Valdez.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Oh, very good, bug and honor, thanks Rich.
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: The honor is all yours. Conservative talk with a dash
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: of sofrito.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Now here's Rich Valdez.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: All right, and it goes, welcome back, Rich Valdez, keeping
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: your company tonight. And King Charles sending on Washington, d C. Today,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: the King making his triumphant entrance and saying a lot
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: of things, a lot of things. I got a lot
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: of clips for you. I want you to work with me,
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: bear with me, have some patience, because this is stuff
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: that I think you need to hear. There was a
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: lot said earlier in the day in the White House,
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: Rose Garden and all that stuff as the President received
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: the King. But the dinner that's about to go down
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: right now. So we're gonna bring you that live as
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: soon as we get the heads up that that's about
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: to go down, and we'll bring you those remarks as well.
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: But I want to start off with that, and I
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: also want to just quick caveat here. I want to
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: say that in the last segment I meant to mention
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: that doctor Fauci's top advisor has been indicted. Now I
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: don't know if that is you know, most people think,
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: oh good, they get the top guy. Then the top
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: guy rolls on him, and then we take down Fauci.
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: Wishful thinking again back to my theory that there's no accountability.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: This is likely this guy getting his slap on the
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: wrist the appearance of accountability, and that's the best that
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: we can do. Again my thinking, you know me, we
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: see the glasses half empty when it comes to this stuff.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: But I just wanted to put that out there before
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: I jump into the king and his visit to the
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: United States. What it means. Is it really all about
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America's independence? Or
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: is there more to it? Is this about the king
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: losing some of his strategic advantage over different countries? Is
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: this the king pandering to the Muslim nations to make
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: the UK the biggest Muslim nation in Europe? Is that
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: his power play. There's a lot of things going on here,
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: the things that he says, the things that Trump says.
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: I'll give you my best estimation of the tea leaves,
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: But to me, it just seems Trump is changing the
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: world order. He just truly is. He is making things different.
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: Some people think that is chaotic and catastrophic and horrible,
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: And in many ways I could understand why they see that,
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: because they're used to things the way they are. Right.
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: Imagine you are living comfortably and you are ripped from
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: your home only to end up in a nicer home
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: and a better situation, a better income. But you don't
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: know that, and because you don't know it, you don't
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: see what the future has. You want to hold on
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: to what you currently have. And in many ways, politics
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: is the same way. And I think King Charles is
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: holding on to his power and trying to keep power
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: in the British Empire. But a Trumpito's doing the same
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: exact thing, and it seems like he's winning in my opinion.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: But the King came, he gave an address to Congress.
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: I have a couple of key clips on and that.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: The first thing that happened, of course, was the President
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: welcoming the King outside the White House Milania decked out
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: in a beautiful white outfit with a white hat. So
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: the white hats are here representing the United States. And
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: here's what President Trump had to say to the King
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: as he arrived outside the White House, Listen to this.
• 34:21
  Speaker 10: Mother had a crush on Charles. Can you believe it?
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: My mother?
• 34:27
  Speaker 10: I just see it so clearly. She loved that. I
• 34:31
  Speaker 10: told the King this. She loved the royal family, and
• 34:35
  Speaker 10: she loved the Queen. And anytime the Queen was involved
• 34:42
  Speaker 10: in a ceremony or anything, my mother would be glued
• 34:46
  Speaker 10: to the television and she'd say, look, Donald, look how
• 34:51
  Speaker 10: beautiful that is. She really did love the family. But
• 34:55
  Speaker 10: I also remember her saying, very clearly, Charles, look, young Charles,
• 35:04
  Speaker 10: he's so cute.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: My mother.
• 35:09
  Speaker 10: My mother had a crush on Charles. Can you believe it? Amazing?
• 35:14
  Speaker 10: How I wonder what she's thinking right now.
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: You know what's funny is that President Trump and King
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: Charles are fifteenth cousins. I bet you didn't know that, right.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: It's a distant relation. This came out a little while ago.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: To be precise, they share a common ancestor in the
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: third Earl of Lennox John Stuart Stuart. This lineage reported
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: by the Daily Beast of all places. But it's from
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: Trump's Scottish ancestry, from his mother's side, and it's a
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: distant relation. The connection is traced back to King James
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: the second of Scotland, making them distant relatives rather than
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: part of the same immediate royal family. And Trump jokingly
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: referenced this saying, you know, hey, maybe one day he'll
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: live in Buckingham Palace, which is pretty funny. And this
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: is again one of those things that he tweeted out
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: this evening from his Team Trump account. So the Trump
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: team tweeting it out that he is in fact the
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: fifteenth cousin to King Charles, which is pretty funny, right.
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: So Trump I think making himself a royal through this genealogy,
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: that he's his newfound genealogy. Just to really to get
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: at King Charles anyway, elray Carlos, King Charles. He addressed Congress,
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: just like many foreign dignitaries that are invited to the
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: United States get to address a joint session of Congress.
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: And I have a couple of clips of what he
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: had to say in his address, with of course the
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, President right behind him,
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: and Vice President JD. Vance. This is one of a
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: couple of clips I'm going to play that I thought
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: were interesting.
• 36:59
  Speaker 11: Check this out President, mister speaker, members of Congress, representatives
• 37:06
  Speaker 11: of the American people across all states, territories, cities, and communities.
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: I just want to say, he makes me want to
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: talk like him and say things like territory and community,
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: and it so sophisticated his British vernacular in his accent.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I do it well, but JA,
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: I'm enjoying doing it here on this microphone. Okay, we
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: shall continue.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 37:34
  Speaker 11: I would like if I meant to take this opportunity
• 37:36
  Speaker 11: to express my particular gratitude to you all for the
• 37:41
  Speaker 11: great honor of addressing this joint meeting of Congress, and
• 37:46
  Speaker 11: on behalf of the Queen and myself to thank the
• 37:50
  Speaker 11: American people for welcoming as us to the United States
• 37:55
  Speaker 11: to mark this semi quin centennial year of the Declaration
• 38:00
  Speaker 11: of Independence.
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: Semi queinstenial and and independence. And sorry I had to
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: do that. I just had to go.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: And for all of that time.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: We'll delayed applied then, you know, Quinn Chin, you guess
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: it's stand the nation. We just had been it for
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: five minutes. But they're applying ourgacy, American our dependence, and
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: it's both above sided.
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: Out, which is nice.
• 38:40
  Speaker 11: And for all of that time, our destinies as nations
• 38:45
  Speaker 11: have been interlinked. As Oscar Wilde said, we have really
• 38:50
  Speaker 11: everything in common with America nowadays, except of course language.
• 38:57
  Speaker 11: Of course, so that we meet in times of great uncertainty,
• 39:06
  Speaker 11: in times of conflict from Europe to the Middle East,
• 39:11
  Speaker 11: which pose immense challenges for the international community, and whose
• 39:16
  Speaker 11: impact is felt in communities the length and breadth of
• 39:20
  Speaker 11: our own countries.
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: Before he continues, I just want to translate that what
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: I hear him saying, and.
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: I don't mean to translate in his own voice. Maybe
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: I'll do the rest of the segment in my King
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: Charles Imbrussian. But I think what he's really saying is
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: here is that the UK, the British Empire, has loose,
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: has lost some power, and as we are losing power,
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: we want to reconcile some of that power by making
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: a deal with the United States before I have to
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: make an even bigger deal with the devil, meaning I
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: will do whatever I have to do. If these are
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: the radical crazies that are taking over the rest of Europe,
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: I will concentrate them in the UK and I will
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: use them as my own person a law me because
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: you are getting in the way of the King's business.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: Do you understand what I'm saying, mister President, right, And
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: he's trying to negotiate here from a position of power.
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: The problem is he doesn't really have this hard power,
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: which of course I mean the Royal Navy is still
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: a thing, and he has that type of power, and
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: he's a monarch. He's not Keir Starmer. But many would
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: suggest that here Starmer, the Prime Minister of England, is
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: nothing more than a figurehead of the monarchy's power. And
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: I'd be one of those people, right, I'd say he
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: is just that he's not a maverick, he's not an outsider. Right.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: In many ways, I'd say, like Obama, Obama was a figurehead,
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: and Biden the same way for the power of the
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: Administrative State for America and all of its dealings, in
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: the dealings that it does, like all the dealings we
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: did with Ukraine, all the money we're transferring all over
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: the place. Everybody's getting rich off of the taxpayer dollar
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: and the printing of our cash and devaluing of our
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: own currency. And President Trump says, no, no, let's make money. Differently,
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: Let's bolster our military, let us get paid for the
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: security that we're providing to our quote unquote allies and friends,
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: and let us dominate the world in terms of resources,
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: natural resources and things that are necessary for technology and
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: for energy production. And I think Trump's onto something. I
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: think he's on the right track. King Charles clearly sees
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: what Trump is doing and is saying, hey, look, we
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: need to shore this up. Remember, hey, Bud, we're pals.
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: Of course, we're old friends.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: We're not We're not just our allies and colleagues, but
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: we are cousins.
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: Of course, all right, play to take.
• 41:35
  Speaker 11: We meet too, in the aftermath of the incident, not
• 41:40
  Speaker 11: far from this great building that sought to harm the
• 41:43
  Speaker 11: leadership of your nation and to ferment wider fear and discord,
• 41:50
  Speaker 11: let me say, with unshakable resolve, such acts of violence
• 41:56
  Speaker 11: will never succeed.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: Here here. I'm not going to play the whole speech,
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: but I have a public clips that I think you
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: want to hear. They're just a little bit slow because
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: of all this. Who's kind of slow.
• 42:19
  Speaker 11: Whatever our differences, whatever disagreements we may have, we stand
• 42:25
  Speaker 11: united in our commitment to uphold democracy, to protect all
• 42:31
  Speaker 11: our people, from harm and to salute the courage of
• 42:35
  Speaker 11: those who daily risk their lives in the service of
• 42:39
  Speaker 11: our countries.
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: Presidents to speaking of King Charles, thank you. And again,
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: I don't want to bo you. I don't want to
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: be labor this too much, but there are a number
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: of things that the King said that I think are
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: worthy of listening to. In this clip, he continues, and
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: it's conciliatory, but yet smuck. And that's really what I'm
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: trying to convey here. Listen to this.
• 43:08
  Speaker 11: It is extraordinary to think that I am the nineteenth
• 43:12
  Speaker 11: in our line of sovereigns to study with daily attention
• 43:17
  Speaker 11: the affairs of America. This is a city which symbolizes
• 43:21
  Speaker 11: a period in our shared history, or what Charles Dickens
• 43:25
  Speaker 11: might have called a tale of two Georges.
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: That was pretty funny.
• 43:41
  Speaker 11: The first President, George Washington and my five times great grandfather,
• 43:45
  Speaker 11: King George. The third King George, as you know, never
• 43:49
  Speaker 11: set foot in America. And please rest assured, I am
• 43:55
  Speaker 11: not here as part of some cunning rear guard action.
• 44:02
  Speaker 11: The founding fathers were bold and imaginative rebels with a
• 44:07
  Speaker 11: cause two hundred.
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: It is extraordinary rebels with a cause. Rebels with the cause.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: And I think that that is a great clip, right,
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: a great clip because he's acknowledging right, Hey, look, you
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: guys spanked us two hundred and fifty years ago, the
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: crown of the world, right, the British Empire. You spanked us,
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: and you became the new big guy on the block.
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: We still have the Crown Jewels, we still pretend to
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: have the power and the pomp and circumstance. And in
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: many ways they've held onto a lot of power globally, right,
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: They've got a lot of money, they've got a lot
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: of power, and they've made peace with the United States
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: so that we can always do things the same way.
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: In my opinion, that we work with Israel. Israel, I
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: would say, is a product of the United States and
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: maybe of the English right because they did put forth
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: the Balfort Accords, and Israel exists on his face, yes,
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: to be the Jewish state. I agree with that, But
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: I think in many ways Israel is the place where
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: we test our weapons. Israel is the place where we
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: test new technologies, and Israel is the place where those guys,
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: the IDF they're fighting our battles. When we see something
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: getting out of line that can potentially harm our nation
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: or the global order that would affect us. We step
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: in and we nudge them to do what they've got
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: to do. And everybody that suggests the other way around,
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: it just doesn't make sense in the dynamic of the power.
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: They are a very small country. Any power that they have,
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: I'd say, is because of their ingenuity, and because of
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: their tenacity and hard work, and because of the strife
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: that they've gone through, and they're trying to protect what
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: they have. But in large part it's because we have
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: paved the way. We have enabled them with a lot
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: of funding, with a lot of weapons, with a lot
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: of open doors. And it's not that they're forcing us
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: to open those doors. It's that it behooves us to
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: open those doors. And that's the essence of a good ally,
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: of a good alliance, I should say. But I'm going
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: to leave you with this final clip from this particular
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: joint session of Congress with King George, you know, standing
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: in front of JD. Vance and Speaker Johnson, who were
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: seated behind him, with his closing remarks about the alliance.
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: Before we get to further remarks from President Trump and
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: King Charles at their state dinner tonight.
• 46:32
  Speaker 11: Story of the United Kingdom and the United States is
• 46:36
  Speaker 11: at his heart, a story of reconciliation, renewal, and remarkable partnership.
• 46:44
  Speaker 11: From the bitter divisions of two hundred and fifty years ago,
• 46:48
  Speaker 11: we forged a friendship that has grown into one of
• 46:52
  Speaker 11: the most consequential alliances in human history. I pray with
• 46:57
  Speaker 11: all my heart who continue to defend our shared.
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: Values again, shared values? Right now, what I hear is
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: we got.
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: Along so well with Barack Obama and with Joe Biden,
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: and continuing the global order, with the British Crown dominating
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: so much of what we have dominated for several centuries.
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: And now we have this Orange man bad that is
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: getting in the way doing exactly what we do, amassing
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: power for his own empire, the American Empire, and we
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: don't like it. There's god to be a way that
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: we can make a deal to coexist with one another.
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: And I haven't practiced this accent, by the way, but
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: I'm stuck in it now, so you might have to
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: deal with it for the rest of the show, or
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: at least the rest of the segment. But when he
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: says shared values in this alliance and reconsolution. To me,
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: that's all flowery language to say, look, let's be friends,
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: let's not you know, stop you're interfering with my cash
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: flow here.
• 47:59
  Speaker 11: With our partners in Europe and the Commonwealth and across
• 48:03
  Speaker 11: the world. And and that we ignore the clarion calls
• 48:14
  Speaker 11: to become ever more inward looking, mister speaker.
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: We ignore the clarion calls to become ever more inward looking.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: He's saying, ignore America first, and he could also be
• 48:29
  Speaker 4: saying ignore isolationism. Right the people that say America only,
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: and in that I agree, I agree with the United States
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: has to be a global player. I'm going to up
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: that ante and say the United States has to be
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: the global player. Why my own American arrogance. I believe
• 48:49
  Speaker 4: that if somebody is going to hold the keys to
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: the Kingdom, it'd better be a suitable American president. Why
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: because I don't trust anybody else, and I barely trust
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: the American presidents that we have. And I'm not referring
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: to Trump per se. I'm saying the United States needs
• 49:07
  Speaker 4: to be in the driver's seat. Joe Biden advocated this role.
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: Barack Obama just played ball with the Crown and everyone else,
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: including Iran. And as long as everybody makes you know,
• 49:18
  Speaker 4: it's kind of like honor amongst thieves. As long as
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: everybody's getting by, we're good. Trump says, uh uh, hell no,
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: we're not doing it like that, my friend. Here's what
• 49:28
  Speaker 4: we're gonna do. Chuck, Can I call you Chuck? Do
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: you mind if I call you Chuck? Chuckie King, Charles, Charlie. Baby, listen,
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: here's how it's gonna be Fellas. What we're gonna do
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: here is we're gonna be in charge. We're gonna have
• 49:40
  Speaker 4: all the energy. If you need step, we're gonna cut
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: out Iran. We're gonna go cut you out too, if
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: you don't get fresh. And we're gonna we're gonna run
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: this show. And everybody's gonna come to us because a
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: new sheriff in town. His name is the dun El
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: don El Trompeto. And you listen, call it gangster, call
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: it what you want. I call it rugged Americanism. You
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: can call it colonialists, you can call it imperialism, you
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: can call it authoritarian. To call it whatever you want.
• 50:03
  Speaker 4: I call it dominating the free market, the free market
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: actually working. I call it American exceptionalism. I call it
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: putting my country first, America first, and I'm not ashamed
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: of that. Go right ahead, King Charles.
• 50:18
  Speaker 11: Mister Vice President, distinguish, ladies and gentlemen. America's words carry
• 50:25
  Speaker 11: weight and meaning, as they have since independence.
• 50:30
  Speaker 4: When we spend actions.
• 50:32
  Speaker 11: Of this great nation matter even more. President Lincoln understood
• 50:38
  Speaker 11: this so well with his reflection in the Magisterial Gettysburg
• 50:42
  Speaker 11: Address that the world may little note what we say,
• 50:48
  Speaker 11: but we'll never forget what do we do. And so
• 50:53
  Speaker 11: to the United States of America, on your two hundred
• 50:56
  Speaker 11: and fiftieth birthday, that our two countries rededicate ourselves to
• 51:03
  Speaker 11: each other in the selfless service of our peoples and.
• 51:08
  Speaker 4: Of all the peoples of the world.
• 51:12
  Speaker 11: God bless the United States, and God bless the United Kingdom.
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: All right, That was King Charles, and I thought it
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: was an interesting speech. He at the end acknowledges that
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: he's not holding the cards, and he says, I hope
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: that we can have the partnership we once had, because
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: he views it as look, this is where we need
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: to be. But he acknowledges, look, you guys are holding
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: the cards. Ed Trompito is the man, and I got
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: to tell you for the sake of optics. And I
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: know Trump uses us their advantage all the time, and
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: God bless him for it. He knows that he is
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: a big man, like physically in stature, you know, six
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: foot two, six foot three. He towers over King Charles.
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: He has this statuesque model wife, Milania, who towers over
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: the the Queen. And when you see them make their entrance,
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: I think it's just it's just so telling, right. It
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: sends a message. And I love it when he does
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: I love it when he does it to putin you know,
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: I don't know if there should be a height requirement
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: for president because that would preclude me at five foot
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: eight inches, a whopping five foot eight, but I will
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: say it just is a thing. It is a thing
• 52:26
  Speaker 4: when you walk into a room and people can see
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: you literally head and shoulders above your rivals. And I
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: want to tap into Newsmax over here because they are
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: holding court over here as we await the arrival of
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: President Trump and the King of England for the White
• 52:46
  Speaker 4: House State Dinner, which is going to happen right now.
• 52:49
  Speaker 12: We're back out live at the White House now and
• 52:52
  Speaker 12: the President and first lady coming down the steps for
• 52:55
  Speaker 12: the big state dinner, the music playing. There's the King
• 52:58
  Speaker 12: and Queen coming in right behind him. I have a
• 53:01
  Speaker 12: little moment here and just kind of watch this play
• 53:04
  Speaker 12: out for a second. I have to say they look spectacular.
• 53:08
  Speaker 12: I can't even fathom how much the Queen's jewels costs,
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: which you can see around her neck a longer ears.
• 53:15
  Speaker 12: The King looks very dapper as well. The President looks great,
• 53:18
  Speaker 12: much taller Millennia, much taller. Kind of funny there, Let's
• 53:22
  Speaker 12: take this in for a moment.
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: Listen to music. It's a stark difference.
• 53:45
  Speaker 13: You've got the Queen of England, the King of Land,
• 53:48
  Speaker 13: President Chimburn Millennial standing there taking photos, posing for the canvas,
• 53:54
  Speaker 13: and making their way over to their table.
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: And say, I mean, this is about as American royal
• 54:04
  Speaker 3: as it gets, right, the Marines and Colored Guard.
• 54:08
  Speaker 4: And all sorts of pop standing erotics. Quite the event,
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: Quite the thing.
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: Now, in a moment, we'll bring you President Trump's remarks
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: as he makes his way over to the podium to
• 54:19
  Speaker 3: introduce the King and the state dinner, and of course
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: King Charles will also make some remarks, and then I'll
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: give you a couple more of my remarks and then
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: we'll move on to some of the other topics that
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: I have.
• 54:32
  Speaker 4: But I wanted to give you a deep dive on
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: this because I know you're not going to get it everywhere,
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: and if you missed a lot of this while it
• 54:37
  Speaker 4: was happening, if you're listening to this later on the podcast,
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: which many of you will because nobody's listening live but
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: me and my producer, the task of having to listen
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: to all of this and get to the meat and
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: potatoes of it is done by me. All right. We've
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: done all the heavy lifting for you, so you only
• 54:57
  Speaker 4: get to hear the necessary parts of it. But I
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: am told we now have a clip of the President
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: Trump making his address, and I want to go to
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: that right now. Let's go for it.
• 55:08
  Speaker 10: Congratulate Charles on having made a fantastic speech today at Congress.
• 55:15
  Speaker 10: He got the Democrats to sand I've never been able
• 55:17
  Speaker 10: to do that.
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it.
• 55:22
  Speaker 10: I couldn't believe it. They liked him more than they've
• 55:26
  Speaker 10: ever liked any Republican or Democrat actually, so I just
• 55:31
  Speaker 10: want to thank you.
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: Congratulations. It's not an easy thing to do. That's a
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: tough place. I want to congratulate, yes, and he goes
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: on to congratulate the King on a number of things there.
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: But what's important is the diplomacy being displayed. Right. They
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: say that President Trump is this, and President Trump is that.
• 55:50
  Speaker 4: He is playing this remarkably well. Right. He is literally
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: respanking the British. And again, we're not at warring. We
• 55:58
  Speaker 4: don't have a conflict with the British. But the British
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: have had their hands in everything for quite a long time,
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: and it's about time the United States gets its due.
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: We've been investing in the security of many for a
• 56:13
  Speaker 4: long time and for a long time. And I would
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: say but for President Reagan, President Kennedy, President Eisenhower, we
• 56:21
  Speaker 4: haven't even had very many presidents that are willing to
• 56:24
  Speaker 4: challenge the global status quo, right, saying well, you know,
• 56:28
  Speaker 4: these people are our ally, and they are and I
• 56:30
  Speaker 4: think they're a valiant ally and great, let's continue. And
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: I think for the most part, we've always had a
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: very good relationship with England. I think when it comes
• 56:40
  Speaker 4: to reshaping the global order of things, like right now,
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: with you've got people saying, you know, and it's not
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: worth my time to go through the Strait of Hormuz anymore.
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: I'm going to go start getting oil from the Americans.
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: That's a win for American I don't think that was
• 56:53
  Speaker 4: the end game. I think that is a lesson being taught. Right,
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: we are siphoning gas from China. We have now told China, hey,
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: look China. As I discussed in my interview with Major
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: Doran Compel, the geopolitical analysis I think that we got
• 57:11
  Speaker 4: out of that conversation was that as long as the
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: United States has a blockade on Iranian ports they have,
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: they're busy fighting us to be able to sell oil,
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: to move oil, to control the straight, which was their
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: nuclear option, shut it down, mess up everybody's gas prices.
• 57:26
  Speaker 4: So guess what. We're here and now we're in control
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: of that. And one would think, out of desperation, we
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: would quickly say let's resolve this, let's bring the prices now.
• 57:34
  Speaker 4: President Trump is doing the right thing here and saying, hey,
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: look it sucks that we have to pay all these prices,
• 57:39
  Speaker 4: but we're going to win this thing. We are going
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: to control this straight. Because controlling this straight controls how
• 57:44
  Speaker 4: much energy gets into China. That's a power play and
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: as a result of that, and I guess an unintended
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: consequence is that people are now buying oil from America
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: because they don't want to go through the Strait. Now,
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: this is very good for us, because Putin's got his
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: hands tied with Russia and the war with Ukraine. So
• 58:06
  Speaker 4: the Russia Ukraine war is kind of keeping them busy
• 58:09
  Speaker 4: over there. They don't really have much footing to say, oh,
• 58:14
  Speaker 4: let's go get involved in that war. China is getting
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: strangled economically because we are cutting off their supply, and
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: it's better for them to be our friend than otherwise.
• 58:23
  Speaker 4: And yes, they are becoming a formidable challenger. But guess what.
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: Something that's been pointed out by Gordon Chang, and by
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: Blaine Hold and the General, and by Dora and Compell
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: and others that I've spoken with, is that they don't
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: have a tried and tested military. And if you've never
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: been in the ring, do you really want to spar
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: with the heavyweight champion of the world the first time
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: you get in the ring. I think many of you,
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: if you're like me, you're like, yeah, who cares, you know,
• 58:54
  Speaker 4: let's do it. But I think most people say no, no, no,
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: we want to start with smaller skirmishes. We need to
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: get people that are tested, which is why when we
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: had our conversation with the journalists out of Mexico. I'm
• 59:07
  Speaker 4: forgetting his name right now, but you could look back
• 59:08
  Speaker 4: and just look for independent Journalists Mexico, Rich Fildest. You
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: can google it. You'll find that episode. It was about
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: a month or two ago. He was explaining that you've
• 59:17
  Speaker 4: got cartel members now sending their people to Ukraine to
• 59:21
  Speaker 4: get actual field experience in war, to make the cartel
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: militias that much more ruthless, and many ways their militias
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: are paid for. They might be exclusive, but they're hired
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: by groups like the Wagner Group and others that train
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: their people and really run their military operations. So fascinating
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: to see how this stuff all plays out geopolitically. But
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: the President making a very nice introduction of King Charles,
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: and King Charles responding in kind with his own words
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: at the state dinner. Let's go to those as well.
• 59:59
  Speaker 4: This is King Charles in the White House for a
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: state dinner.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 11: Speaking of submarine alliances. There was one particular Orchus predecessor
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 11: launched from a UK Shipyard in nineteen forty four that
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 11: served for the majority of her life attached to the
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 11: fourth Submarine Squadron in Australia, playing a critical role during
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 11: the war.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 4: In the Pacific. Her name.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 11: Hms Trump. So tonight, mister President, I am delighted to
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 11: present to you, as a personal gift, the original bell,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 11: which hung on the conning tower of your valiant namesake,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 11: may stand as a testimony to our nation's shared history
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 11: and shining future. And should you ever need to get
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 11: hold of us or just give us a ring.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 4: Of course, that is again the King trying to be
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 4: generous and courteous and gifting him looks like the Liberty Bell,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 4: but a really small one. This is Trump on it,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: which hung on one of their vessels, the Trump. So
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 4: King Charles. Also, I think I got one more on
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 4: King Charles before we wrap on this, and I'm pretty
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: Charles out personally. But again, letter rip.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 11: As the direct descendant of King George de Third, I
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 11: know this is a nation that never gives up, and
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 11: my family's history remains reflected in your maps, which read
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 11: rather like a Christmas card list across the ages North
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 11: and South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and the cities of Charleston,
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 11: a particular favorite of mine, obviously, Georgetown for that matter,
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 11: Georgia Anne Appolis as who mentioned and further favorites Prince
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 11: William County and Williamsburg. This said, French friends can feel
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 11: equally at home with a glance at a map. Indeed,
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 11: you recently commented, mister President, that if it were not
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 11: for the United States, European countries would be speaking German.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 11: Dare I say that because of us, we'd be speaking French.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: A little cruche there from mckinnan. And again, this is
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: how these guys do what they do, right. He wants
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: to make a clever remark that half the room will
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: take as, oh that's funny, that's clever, and I was
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: really witty, and the other half of the room is
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: taking notes saying, oh, I can't believe this guy's trying to,
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: you know, throw some darts at us.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: And this is what they call diplomacy, my friend plum. Anyway,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 4: I'm just about King Charles downt But I think ultimately
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: what comes down to happening here is the King is here.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 4: Because President Trump likes to be a man of firsts.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 4: He likes to say, hey, look I'm the guy that
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 4: brought the King of England to the United States. He
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 4: extends these courtesies to them, a stage that, quite frankly,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 4: you can't get anywhere else. Let's be very frank If
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: you want media attention, if you want to be heard,
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 4: if you want people to hear your message, nobody gets
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 4: more attention than Donald Trump. Right. He worked hard at
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 4: it as a media mogul, and now he works effortlessly
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 4: at it as President of the United States. And it's
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: not by virtue of him being President of the United States.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 4: It's because of he is who he is, and he
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: happens to be President of the United States. So people
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 4: who want that type of attention, like the king, and
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying the king, he's obviously the King of England.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 4: He can get all sorts of attention. But this type
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: of collab with Trump is a good thing for him.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: It cements his footing in global politics as a monarch
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 4: who's supposed to have no power but clearly is either
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 4: trying to purport that he has some, or what I
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: would argue, he's truly one of the guys pulling the strings.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 4: They have been all along, just like his mother was
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 4: before that the Queen of England. So I think that
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 4: this is England respectfully saying, we want to remain at
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 4: the table, even if we're not at the head of
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 4: the table. They are kissing the ring of the down
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 4: pun intended because the United States has truly began to
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 4: flex its muscle. And I think that's great. And I
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 4: had to talk the other day with one of my friends.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 4: We will call him, what do we call him? We
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: call him Ruben the Cuban. And my buddy Ruben the
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 4: Cuban was telling me, He says, but you see that's
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: the problem here. Why can't we all just get along
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 4: and a good time and just enjoy ourselves and not
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: worry about who's number one? And quite frankly, I said, look, brother,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 4: I love you, and we only have that mindset because
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 4: we are number one. If we weren't number one, if
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 4: we didn't have the safety and security of knowing that
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 4: we could fight our battles abroad and that we maintain
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 4: the order of things because of our massive military and
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 4: the might and power that we wield, we wouldn't have
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 4: the ability to start grilling hot dogs on the fourth
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: of July. We'd be living like they do in some
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 4: other countries. That doesn't mean every country's war torn. I
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 4: think there's people living happy lives in other places. It
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: doesn't mean this is the only place that you can
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 4: live a happy life. That's not my suggestion at all.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 4: But I am saying that in order to have that
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 4: peace of mind, we have to have some security, and
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 4: the trade off between them is something I talked about
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 4: last time. You know, this trade off between liberty and security,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 4: or you know Ben Franklin put as privacy versus security
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 4: is an age old battle and it's as Andy Stanley
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 4: puts it up, it's a tension that has to be managed,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 4: not a problem that needs to be solved, right, It's
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 4: kind of like a constant that doesn't go anywhere anyway.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 4: That concludes my interest in the King's visit. We're going
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 4: to move on to some other things because you know,
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: the Democrats, of course, are continuing to call for violence
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: against El Trompito, and you know, upset that the guy
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: missed and the hating get close enough. We've got new
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: drugs coming in from Mexico in the last couple of months,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 4: a new type of fentanyl. It's like a synthetic fentanyl
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 4: called car fentanyl and has nothing to do with cars.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 4: We'll talk about that. The Michael Jackson movie making huge
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 4: waves in the box office and re earthing a lot
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 4: of old footage of Michael Jackson, his relationship with Donald Trump,
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 4: who he actually really is as a person, and a
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 4: study that's come out and to March showing that something
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 4: like two thirds or eighty percent of babies that are
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: getting all this screen time, whether it's through a tablet,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: a learning exercise, or whatever, might actually be causing brain
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: damage for these little kids. That's pretty wild. So all
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: of that's coming up. I know I've gone long on
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: both of these segments, but it was a lot to cover.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 4: So if we don't get to everything in this episode,
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: we will carry some of it over until tomorrow. But
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: keep it lock right here. It's Rich Valdez. I'm coming
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 4: right back.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: This is America. This is America.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: He's making podcasting great again.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: This is America with Rich Valdez.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 4: All right for me, no welcome back. It's Rich Valdez
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 4: keeping your company tonight, and I want to let you
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 4: know that I definitely discussed a lot tonight. We did
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 4: a deep dive on this King Charles visit.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 3: We did a deep dive on the James Colemandictman.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 4: Those were the two biggest stories of the day. But
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 4: I really wanted to get into this other stuff that
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 4: I had with not only the continued calls for violence
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 4: against President Trump, with the Michael Jackson movie. I'm a
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 4: big fan of Michael Jackson, always have been, and there's
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 4: a lot of good clips that are circulating about his
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 4: innocence and how President Trump defended him, and how Kamala
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 4: Harris went after him so viciously for things that she
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 4: said he did, which many say he didn't do, including
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 4: some of the kids they said he did to like
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 4: Macaulay Culkin. So I want to get into that stuff.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 4: I also have this study about two thirds or eighty
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 4: percent of babies getting brain damage. This is from an
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 4: Australian study that I really want to dig into because
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 4: earlier today I saw a post from my pastor saying
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 4: that if you quit social media for two weeks it
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 4: could add up to a decade in health benefits, and
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 4: I thought, wow, two weeks to get an extra ten
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 4: years and health benefits sounds like a good deal for me.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 4: It's part of my job and I don't even do
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: it that well. Honestly, I'm pretty bad at posting stuff
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 4: on social media, but very interesting stuff, and I want
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 4: to unpack that a little bit as well. Plus, cold
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 4: Bear is coming to the end of his reign on television.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 4: What does that mean. I think that just means Colbert
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 4: is gonna have a streaming show somewhere like Netflix or
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 4: Paramount Plus or something like that, and it's probably gonna
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 4: be even bigger than the TV show. Why, Because TV
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 4: combined with cable doesn't even come close to the streaming world,
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 4: right And I think right now streaming is more than
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 4: double TV and cable combined. Why do you think I
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 4: jumped into streaming? That's exactly why. So I don't think
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 4: we're going to see the end of Cold Bear yet,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 4: but let's see if my prediction holds true or not.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 4: So we'll continue this conversation on all of the stuff
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 4: with the kids, with the screens, with any fallout or
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 4: additional stuff from King Charles, and plus all of the
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 4: news that Wednesday has to offer us in the next episode.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 4: Until then, I say, as stall Abrosima, take care, good night,
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 4: and God bless you America. I'm Rich Valdes and this
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 4: is America, this is America.
