Judge Napolitano - What the Founders Feared · Brian Thomas

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I'm getting better through Westchester, still heavy through the lock
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: when split northbound four seventy one backs up past Grand
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: and there's a wreck on the ramp from Kellogg to
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: westbound two seventy five. Then slow onto the bridge thanks
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: to the new lane configuration coming up. Next, Bryan talks
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: to the latest defensive end for the Bengals. I it's
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: certainly better than what we have on the field right now,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: and brings up an interesting twist for this weekend's game,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: The Judge versus the Patriots Chuck Ingram on fifty five
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: krs the talk station, Hey.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Thirty one, fifty five KRCD talk station, No insult to
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Judgeita Polatana, but things have gotten so bad that we
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: need the Judge join.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Our defensive end.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable that a laugh of you, said me, Judge of Polatana.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: But it may be a reflection of just how bad
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: things are for the Begels, which is an accurate statement.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Lord Almighty.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: It wasn't that long ago. Win they were flying high
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: and Joe Burrow was the talk not just of Cincinnati,
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: but of the entire sports world.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, glass jaw, turf toe Burrow. I feel badly for
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the poor guy, but every time he gets up from
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: an injury, he ends up getting another injury. I'm not
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: sure we got in a good ROI on that investment,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: but we'll hope Spring's eternal for the cincinne Bengals Judge
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: of Polton, and we'll keep see what happens. I obviously
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: did you hear. I was just talking to Congressman A.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Massy about these Epstein files, and I kept, you know,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: why were they so just insistent on not releasing these?
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: And as it turns out, it probably is because the
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: FBI is going to be revealed for the incompetent organization
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: that may be or the corrupt one. A lot of
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: women claim to have been molested as fourteen to fifteen
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: year olds. He's got hundreds of them. There were a
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: thousand of them reportedly involved in this sexual trafficking with Epstein. Obviously,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: it wasn't just Epstein who was engaging in the sexual conduct.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: There were a lot of others swirling about his network
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: of friends, many of whom these women have confirmed did
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: indeed molest them. Congress Massy's looking for some justice for
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: those folks. But cash Betel said, oh, there's nothing there.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: But he didn't even bother. Looking at the FBI investigative files,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: these women came forward, they recorded the information, yet there
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: were no criminal prosecutions that came about from this, suggesting
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: that the more connected you are, the higher up you
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: are in the political echelon, the less likely these you're
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: going to be held accountable for your crimes.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: You know. Professor Alan Dershowitz was Epstein's lawyer who negotiated
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: the most fantastic sweetheart plea agreement which resulted in either
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: weekends only or weekdays only I forget, which in a
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: low level confinement environment for thirteen months, notwithstanding the vast
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: number of underage victims that were involved. This was negotiated
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: by the then US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: which includes where Epstein was living at the time, who
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: eventually became the Secretary of Labor in the first Trump administration,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Alexander Acosta. When Acosta was interrogated under oath about this
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: by the House Judiciary Committee, he insisted that no one
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: ever told him that Epstein was involved in intel and
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: therefore was protected. So I don't know who's being truthful here,
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: but I agree obviously with what you said, my hat
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: is off to the extraordinary personal courage of our dear friend,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Congressman Thomas Massi and my congratulations to him on his
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: beginning his new life. But back to his political life.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: You know, missus Abelson can throw all the cats you wanted,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: then nobody that's running against him. Thomas Massey is not
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: only the personification of fidelity the Constitution, He's personification of
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: personal courage and intellectual honesty. And I'm sure his constituents
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: will recognize that. And he has said to you, me
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: and others that there are names in there being protected,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: and some of those names are probably FBI agents. So
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: the FBI wants to be protected, the Intel people with
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: whom Epstein was involved, Cia Massad, and probably six that's
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: the British want to be protected. And Congressman Massey also
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: said yesterday or the day before, and I wasn't able
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: to hear your entire interview with him because of another
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: commitment I had here that he expects some resistance not
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: from the President, but from the powers that be in
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: the DOJ excuses for not revealing what they don't want
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: to reveal. I mean, people could lose their careers over
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: what is about to be revealed, of how mightily they
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: will struggle to prevent it from coming out.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Amen. But you know what if they deserve to lose
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: their careers for what they have done untoward criminal conduct,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: perhaps sweeping information under the rug in the name of
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: protecting other people, candidly, they deserve to lose their.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Agreed, agreed, agreed, agreed, Brian, I'm sorry my answer was
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: so long as Alice in Wonderland once said, gets curious
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: or and curious, sir every time you.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Look at it, and it is and it will continue
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: to be because you know, the points you just made
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: are going to result in the Department of Justice redacting
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: almost everything in the first round of production, and then
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: they're going to have to explain the redactions according to
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the law that's been passed or it will soon be
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: passed or signed into law by the Trump by Trump.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: But that they're going to be a fight over those
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: reactions and other undisclosed information as we move forward. So
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I don't think the Fat Lady has yet sung on
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the whole issue yet.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I got to point out one other piece of nonsense
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: that the DOJ will use. Last week, the President ordered
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: the DOJ to investigate Democrats that he believes were involved
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: with Epstein. Well, this raises two interesting issues. One, the
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: DOJ is absolutely prohibited from investigating anyone based upon their
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: political affiliation. And two, Epstein's been dead since twenty nineteen,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: that is six years ago, that is outside the statute
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: of limitations of five years. The DOJ is prohibited if
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: I'm investigating anybody that they can't prosecute, and that nobody
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: can be prosecuted after the statute limitations has expired. So
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: this excuse we're investigating people and therefore we can't cough
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: up our file is a meaningless excuse, and I hope
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: the Congress sees right through it.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up, because, honestly, Jesseph Paul Towney,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: you're the first person to sort of raise the spector
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: of the Statute of limitations and that sort of demands
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: asking is there a statute limitations in connection with being
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: raped as a minor? For the women who really are
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: demanding justice at this point, late stage in the game,
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: it may be do they can they hope for any
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: justice if names are reviewed.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: They can, they can hope for civil litigation, but not
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: for criminal prosecution.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Well, civil litigation has a way of, at least financially,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: trying to unring or undo the bell of harm that's
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: been done to them, and it certainly never does.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: There were many civil cases. Two lawyers that are friends
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: of mine were involved on opposite side, David Boyce and
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Arthur I. Dallas. So I don't know how those litigations
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: ended up. I don't know the size of the Epstein estate.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: The man was very wealthy. I don't even know how
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: he raised how he acquired his wealth was actually blackmail.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Who well knows well?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: How does one become a CIA operative and foremant? How
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: does one become connected so much with all of these
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: wealthy and extremely influential people. How is it a memory
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: of Congress is getting questions fed from him real time
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: during a hearing. I just find the whole thing to
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: be just bizarre, your honor. I hopefully the answer will
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: come with the release of these.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Documents, right right that some of the documents are probably
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: going to embarrass the president. I don't think there's pictures
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: of him with his clothes off, but I think there
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: are communications involving him that he would just assume not
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: have to address things that he may have said or
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: done thoughtlessly many years ago. I'm not suggesting any criminal
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: behavior at all, but just stuff he would just as
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: soon not have to deal with right now, in the
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: midst of his second presidency.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Right, but stuff he's capable of managing. I'm sure he
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: can provide the exculpatory information to the extent his name
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: is revealed, and he could say the same thing about
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: anybody else's name who pops up. If you weren't guilty
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: of anything, you got a bully pulpit, you're a multi billionaire,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: you hung out with the guy, explain yourself to the
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: American public and let them digest and then draw their
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: own conclusions. We're all kind of stuck in that position
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: in this day.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Alston Epstein was very generous to his alma mater, Harvard University,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: and drew into his orbit the then president of Harvard,
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Larry Summers, who, after he resigned as the president of Harvard,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: became the Secretary of the Treasury and now is issuing
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: all kinds of statements. He regrets his involvement with Epstein.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: I don't know what the involvement was. Did he just
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: have dinner with the guy, or he spend time on
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: that island doing things that were inappropriate. I'm not suggesting
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: he did. I think Larry Summers is a very smart guy.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: I listened to him all the time on another network.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: But this is the type of name that's going to
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: come out that's going to force people to make public statements.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Finally get into the bottom of it after all this time,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: judg ennit of Politano Judging Freedom is your podcast? Who
• 9:47

• 9:49

• 9:59
