Gregg Jarrett | Legal Commentator Offers Expert Opinion on Ilhan Omar Investigation & More · Sid & Friends In The Morning

  Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett is a brilliant, brilliant mind attorney. He's amazing
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: on Fox News, but he's got a very eclectic taste
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: in music, and so do we. So he loves, yes,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: this is a great song. He loves ELP. Does he
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: love Bachman-Turner Overdrive?
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know where that came from.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know where that came from.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Let me ask him.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Greg, you like BTO also or no?
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not up there with Yes or ELP, but yeah, absolutely.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: You're the best. You are the best. So what is
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: your favorite band, though? Is it Yes of all time?
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's hard to say. There were so
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: many great bands. You know, Led Zeppelin is one of
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: my all-time favorites. The Doors, you know, you got to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: go back a long way.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Was there a time when Greg Jarrett, like my cousin
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Norm Coleman... had, like, long hair and smoked duv with
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Abbie Hopman and did all that stuff, because it sounds
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: like that may be the case, Greg.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: And there are pictures, yes. My college ID, I had
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: a beard so long that the photograph actually cut it off.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Come on. Really?
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Yeah, I drove a Volkswagen camper van with
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: a full-down bed in the back, and I had a
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: ponytail and a long beard. And those were great days.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Now, what college was this that you went to?
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I went to Claremont Men's College, which is now called
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Claremont McKenna in Southern California. Awesome.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Look at you.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: It's amazing the lives that you've lived. Now you're this
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: clean-cut lawyer, Fox News, you know, the whole thing. Same
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: thing with my cousin Norm. And my cousin Norm, of course,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: once senator in Minnesota, was the mayor of St. Paul
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: for eight years, finally with Bush and Trump. And he was,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: I guess, a product of the 60s, right? That's the
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: answer right there.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I was born in 1955, grew up
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: in the 60s, you know, the heyday of, you know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: the hippie movement in the 60s and 70s.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So you know, for example, that you were born in 1955.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: So already, Greg Jarrett, you're one step ahead of Ilan Omar,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: who seems to be confused as to actually when she
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: was born.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she does. And, you know, I had to laugh
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: at Barack Obama's defense of her. You know, he declared
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: on multiple occasions over the last decade or so that
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: nobody is above the law. Apparently he has an exception
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: for Democrats on that. And, you know, he overlooks that
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: the Omar investigation was actually initiated under Joe Biden. And,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: of course, the warrant was signed by a Democrat judge who,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: by the way, clerked for an Obama appointee. And, you know,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: so a judge in his own party approved the raid
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: because that judge believed the evidence of a crime inside
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Omar's home was compelling enough to sign off on it. So,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you know, really she was treated like anybody else when
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: there is probable cause. But, you know, Obama also got
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: his facts wrong. He assumes things as fact when he
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: doesn't actually know. For example, he assured us that Omar
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: was 17 years old. Well, he doesn't know that, and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: he's ignoring that her own paperwork for a very long while,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: for years, had a birth date that made her 18.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: And finally, Obama insists Omar's father was naturalized. But wait
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: a minute. He doesn't know that either, because there's no
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: record of it whatsoever. Hmm. So, you know, Obama is
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: really the one who is politicizing this. But, of course,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: he's accusing Trump of weaponizing the law.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: But is it going to matter? I mean, if the
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: facts are there, the facts are there. And, you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: this goes to show you Obama has really been rough
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. I actually believe he's part
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: of the motivation why President Trump came out. and endorsed
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Bibi so enthusiastically yesterday is because Obama won't shut up
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: about Bibi and Israel with all his negative talking about them.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: So he's really showing everybody that he has been the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: head of the Democrat Party since the day he left.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, you can mention Susan Rice. You can
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: mention this group, that group. Barack Obama has basically been
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the leader of the Democrats from the day he won.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Can you disagree with that?
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I don't disagree. I mean, and remember, Obama's really the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: guy who invented politicized lawfare against a political opponent when
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: his administration launched the case against then-candidate Donald Trump that,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: you know, became the now infamous collusion hoax, which I
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: wrote two books about it. So, you know, spare us
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: the sanctimony, Barack.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: That's exactly what happened, exactly what happened.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: So tell me this then, Greg, based upon the information
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: that you know and that we know at this point,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: because I'm rooting for her to go down, like I'm
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: still waiting for Mahmoud Khalil. I told Dershowitz this a
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: couple of days ago. I'm still waiting for Khalil to
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: be deported. Do you think Ilhan Omar, at the end
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: of the day, is going down?
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Well, I think these are potentially serious charges that could
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: result in that. For example, if Omar lied about her
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: birth date on citizenship forms, that's fraud in the criminal codes.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: If she lied on any other official forms about her
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: birth date, that's more fraud. If she enlisted others, like
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: her staff, to help her enter a false birth date,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: and there's evidence of that, that's a conspiracy to commit fraud.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: If she worked with others to cover it up, That's
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: also criminal conspiracy. If her father lied about his identity
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to obtain citizenship, and there appears to be evidence of that, well,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: that nullifies her derivative citizenship. She gained it from him.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: One fraud nullifies the other. If he never obtained citizenship,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: as I say, there's no record of it. that means
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: hers is invalid as well. And finally, if she knowingly
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: lied about her father having citizenship and knew all along
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: he really didn't, but said otherwise, there you have another
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: false statement of fraud. So all of these things are
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: quite serious matters, Sid, where the punishment under law could
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: result in three things. Denaturalization, removal proceedings and deportation. How
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: is that going to happen? I mean, I can't tell
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: you that. We don't know enough, but it's pretty apparent
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: that the feds are looking at that.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: I would take that right now over a giant Super Bowl.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: And for me to say that's a lot, just trust me, Greg.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Just trust me.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: You give me one of those three, you give me
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: all three of those things, you can take that over
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl any day of the week. The amazing
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett right here. Hey, Greg, is this Lindsay Clancy
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: trial ever going to end?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Well, if I were the prosecution, I'd sit down and say, well,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I really have to change things around the second time
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: or I'm going to end up with yet another hung jury.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: When you have 11 people that vote against you and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: only one person who sides with you, that gives you
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: a case of the for reals. You've got to pause
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: your tracks and figure out what went wrong and whether
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: or not in such a highly politicized case, whether you
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: can find 12 jurors to agree on anything. So, well,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: you know, who knows?
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: It looks like, Greg Jarrett, that Jack Smith, the tentacles,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of them, and very wide-reaching in his attempt
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: to get President Trump. I think I saw a number
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: this morning, nearly 700,000 people that Jack Smith got personal
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: information on.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: That sounds like a problem.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: It's a huge problem. It's a shocking, abusive power. Here's
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: a guy who single-handedly tried to shred the Constitution. I mean,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: he assembled the equivalent of an enemies list that makes
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Nixon's list look modest. You know, Republican donors, supporters, names, addresses, birthdates, emails,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: credit card information, telephone records. An astonishing 639,000 people had
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: their privacy invaded for what? Where you purchased a MAGA
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: hat or a T-shirt? So then you got secretly targeted
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: by the special counsel. He tracked your shipping address, your
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: home delivery, snooping into your employment record, credit card information,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: your transactions. You know, he swept up those of us
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: at Fox News and other journalists. I saw my name
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: on one of the lists.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: No kidding.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: And what he found out was redacted. I'm curious to
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: know what it is.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Me too.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Maybe he found out I, you know, had long hair
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: and a ponytail and drove a camper van. You know, that's,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: you know, throw me in the hoose, Gal, for that.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: But you know what's funny about what you just said?
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of Trump people. That are nervous.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: What you're talking about, what Jack Smith did, I know
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: that Jim Jordan has referred Smith to the Justice Department
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: for possible criminal prosecution. But what you're talking about, what
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Jack Smith did, I think that's the worry of all
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: of us. Now, me, not as much maybe as, I
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: don't know, Donald Trump Jr.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Or Eric, but All of us that have personal relationships
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: with President Trump are worried that something like that can
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: happen if, in fact, the Democrats win the midterms. Or
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: is that being way too paranoid?
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: No, I think it's a reasonable fear. You know, look,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: I'm a journalist. Do I communicate with people at the
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: White House to find out? Of course I do. Have
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: I talked to the president on numerous? Yes. He's very
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: open to members of the media. You know, are they
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: reading my text messages and emails and so forth? Every
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: time I send a text, I assume that it's being
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: looked at by somebody. and that my privacy is being invaded.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: You mentioned the criminal referral against Jack Smith. You know,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: I have said on air that he could possibly be
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: charged with conspiracy to deprive rights, criminal codes, false statements, obstruction, perjury,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: all of those things. So, you know, and of course,
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Jack Smith has exposed himself as a partisan. He denied
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: it under oath. But, you know, then he shows up
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: at a No Kings or some kind of Power to
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: the People march with a No Kings shirt. Right. That
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: was it. That was it.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. There you kind of tell you what team you're
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: on right there. Greg Jarrett, I can't say enough nice
