Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Straight ahead on Real America tonight, great news out of Washington, D.C.,
- 0:04Speaker 1: President Trump pulling our troops out of Iraq.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Y'all remember, we went in 2003, 23 years of a
- 0:13Speaker 2: presence there.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Finally, we're ending this brutal chapter of our nation's history.
- 0:17Speaker 1: All the while, our Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, big
- 0:20Speaker 1: speech this week, restoring the warrior's ethos in our militaries.
- 0:25Speaker 1: We'll break it down tonight, Florida Congressman and veteran Greg Stubbe. Plus,
- 0:29Speaker 1: Tennessee Governor Bill Lee demands an independent review of his
- 0:32Speaker 1: state's procedure after another death row inmate survives.
- 0:36Speaker 2: A failed execution attempt. It's like two and four months
- 0:39Speaker 2: down there. Witnesses are speaking out about the disturbing scene
- 0:43Speaker 2: that went down last night in Tennessee. And the defense
- 0:45Speaker 2: attorney for.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Lindsey Clancy is radically changing his tune, now in an
- 0:48Speaker 1: effort to avoid a retrial of the triple murderer.
- 0:52Speaker 2: I'm Dan Ball, and Real America starts right now.
- 1:02Speaker 3: Complainers, the ideologues, and the poor performers are no longer
- 1:06Speaker 3: in the driver's seat. No more silly PowerPoint trainings or
- 1:11Speaker 3: drag queen shows. No more diversity quotas. No more gender pronouns.
- 1:17Speaker 3: No more identity months.
- 1:19Speaker 4: Only the warrior ethos.
- 1:21Speaker 3: But it's worth saying again so that the fake news
- 1:25Speaker 3: understands it. We are no longer the woke department or
- 1:30Speaker 3: the weak department. Simple translation of that, no fatties, no trannies,
- 1:37Speaker 3: no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals, just warriors.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Thank you, Mr. Hegseth.
- 1:46Speaker 1: As a veteran, I tip my hat to you and
- 1:48Speaker 1: say thank you. We begin the program this evening with
- 1:52Speaker 1: some words of encouragement from our Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth,
- 1:56Speaker 1: who delivered an incredible address They call it the state
- 2:00Speaker 1: of the force last night at the Marine Corps Base Quantico.
- 2:04Speaker 1: And I would say he's got a lot of the
- 2:05Speaker 1: country fired up. He spoke for about an hour. He
- 2:09Speaker 1: started the day first with some physical training. You've got
- 2:12Speaker 1: to set the example as a leader. made several key
- 2:15Speaker 1: announcements that we have to go over. For instance, the
- 2:18Speaker 1: Pentagon is now creating a new autonomous warfare command to
- 2:21Speaker 1: accelerate the military's use of drones and robotics. This new
- 2:26Speaker 1: command is expected to be led by a four-star officer
- 2:28Speaker 1: and is part of a sweeping effort to cut costs
- 2:31Speaker 1: and improve our effectiveness on the battlefield. Along the same
- 2:34Speaker 1: line there, HEGSF also introduced an initiative called Project Meridian
- 2:38Speaker 1: to study the future of war and how it's carried out. Also,
- 2:42Speaker 1: He's confirming some major personnel shakeups, and I like it.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Watch this.
- 2:48Speaker 3: Those generals who did not, who clung to the woke
- 2:52Speaker 3: department or seem to think civilian control of the military
- 2:56Speaker 3: is simply a suggestion, well, they no longer work here.
- 3:01Speaker 3: You see, the number crunchers say we've fired 10% of
- 3:05Speaker 3: the generals and admirals across the force, and that number
- 3:08Speaker 3: sounds about right. And I know because I directed it
- 3:12Speaker 3: that we've also reduced the overall number of general officer
- 3:16Speaker 3: slots by an additional 10%. So yes, 20% reduction across
- 3:23Speaker 3: the board.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Once again, I say amen. Why? Too many chiefs, not
- 3:28Speaker 2: enough Indians. How about that one?
- 3:29Speaker 1: Remember that phrase from growing up? We got so much
- 3:32Speaker 1: top brass in the Pentagon. I'm glad Pete's cleaning it up.
- 3:37Speaker 1: President Trump also delivered some big news about the military.
- 3:40Speaker 1: This week, he broke it on Truth Social, and it
- 3:42Speaker 1: was all the talk yesterday into this morning. We're finally
- 3:46Speaker 1: entering a long, long chapter for our service members.
- 3:49Speaker 5: Watch.
- 3:51Speaker 6: Today, I'm pleased to announce that the last American forces
- 3:55Speaker 6: are leaving Iraq. It's been a long time with... Very
- 4:05Speaker 6: bad decision-making that got us involved in this quagmire. In
- 4:10Speaker 6: the first place, it was a quagmire. Many, many years
- 4:14Speaker 6: it lasted. But soon that part.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Of history will be over. Thank you, Mr. President.
- 4:21Speaker 1: And I'll bet you it won't look like the Afghanistan withdrawal.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Roughly 2,000 Americans were in Iraq as of February, but
- 4:27Speaker 1: now they'll be headed to Jordan, I'm told. Alongside our
- 4:30Speaker 1: Iraqi security forces, they'll be fighting terrorists around the Middle East.
- 4:34Speaker 2: This news also. comes as U.S.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Forces completed their final exit from Syria in April, thanks
- 4:39Speaker 1: to President Trump. Joining me now to weigh in on
- 4:43Speaker 1: all of this, he's a member of the House Intelligence
- 4:45Speaker 1: and Ways and Means Committees, and an Army veteran himself,
- 4:48Speaker 1: Florida Congressman Greg Stubbe.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Back on the program. Greg, nice to see you, brother.
- 4:53Speaker 1: First, I know you served in Iraq, so I want
- 4:55Speaker 1: to start there, and then we'll go to what Pete
- 4:57Speaker 1: did in the big State of the Force address, because
- 4:59Speaker 1: I was loving all that yesterday as well. But after
- 5:02Speaker 1: 23 years years, and let's call it like it is,
- 5:07Speaker 1: the American people duped into the weapons of mass destruction.
- 5:11Speaker 1: I'm not saying that we didn't need to take out
- 5:13Speaker 1: the leaders in Iraq and make some change, but let's
- 5:16Speaker 1: be real. We shed a lot of blood over there,
- 5:18Speaker 1: spent a lot of money, and I'm glad we're finally
- 5:20Speaker 1: getting out.
- 5:22Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's over 4,000 of our brothers and
- 5:24Speaker 7: sisters that died in combat over there.
- 5:26Speaker 2: I can't tell you how many wounded.
- 5:28Speaker 7: We've got members of Congress like Brian Mass who were
- 5:31Speaker 7: wounded us serving during that period of time. I served 06, 07,
- 5:34Speaker 7: and it's just great to see our warriors not have
- 5:38Speaker 7: to be there anymore. I don't believe we ever should
- 5:40Speaker 7: have gone there. Obviously, at that time, we didn't know
- 5:42Speaker 7: that based on the decisions that were made. I was
- 5:45Speaker 7: honored to serve, but looking back in retrospect, we never
- 5:48Speaker 7: should have been there. I'm so glad that Trump pulled
- 5:50Speaker 7: our guys out and we don't have a presence there anymore.
- 5:52Speaker 2: Think of the billions.
- 5:53Speaker 7: Of dollars, too, from taxpayer dollars that were spent there.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Right.
- 5:56Speaker 1: One more on that one, and then I want to
- 5:58Speaker 1: get to this warrior's ethos and the firings of the
- 6:00Speaker 1: Pentagon and stuff. Um, do you, I was going to
- 6:05Speaker 1: say what's the victory here, but that's kind of a
- 6:07Speaker 1: dumb question because nobody feels that way. Um, how do
- 6:10Speaker 1: you hope as an Iraq war veteran after 23 years
- 6:14Speaker 1: of being there that our veterans are looked upon? And
- 6:19Speaker 1: do you think that president Trump and the people in
- 6:22Speaker 1: charge of the Pentagon now have a good exit strategy?
- 6:25Speaker 1: Unlike what we witnessed in August of 2021 in Afghanistan
- 6:30Speaker 1: under Biden.
- 6:31Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think that the American people want us
- 6:33Speaker 7: to be in forever wars anymore. And I think it's
- 6:37Speaker 7: obviously guided the decision-making that's going on in Iran because
- 6:40Speaker 7: the president hasn't put boots on the ground there because
- 6:42Speaker 7: he knows there's a sensitivity of the Americans and veterans
- 6:46Speaker 7: and his advisors to having boots on the ground there
- 6:49Speaker 7: and getting ourselves into an altercation that would be a
- 6:52Speaker 7: long period of time. So I think that's one of
- 6:55Speaker 7: the things that are guiding this administration.
- 6:57Speaker 2: I'm so happy.
- 6:58Speaker 7: I'm very relieved that we're not going to have people there.
- 7:01Speaker 7: I have filed amendments in the House for years to
- 7:04Speaker 7: not allow funding to go to Iraq, to pull our
- 7:06Speaker 7: troops out of Iraq.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Same with Lebanon. We give them money, too. I've been
- 7:10Speaker 2: filing things.
- 7:11Speaker 7: So it's great that we have a president who's going
- 7:14Speaker 7: to put our service members first.
- 7:16Speaker 2: All right, let's go to our Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Huge announcements. 20% cut to a lot of the top brass.
- 7:22Speaker 1: You heard my analogy of I've always thought we beefed
- 7:24Speaker 1: up too many brass and not enough troops, which means
- 7:28Speaker 1: too many chiefs, not enough Indians.
- 7:30Speaker 2: I'm for the cuts.
- 7:31Speaker 1: And then returning to a warrior's ethos. This isn't some
- 7:35Speaker 1: Silicon Valley tech company where they got break rooms and
- 7:39Speaker 1: sleeping pods and little blankie times for your naps.
- 7:42Speaker 2: It's the armed frickin' services. Anyway, your thoughts on what
- 7:47Speaker 2: Pete's doing.
- 7:48Speaker 7: Well, the first is getting rid of the higher echelon
- 7:51Speaker 7: brass is a great, great decision. It's something that's been
- 7:53Speaker 7: talked about for a really, really long time. We have
- 7:56Speaker 7: way too many people in the general level and the
- 7:59Speaker 7: senior commander level that aren't, they're not commanders on the ground.
- 8:02Speaker 7: They're all just sitting in the Pentagon pushing paper around
- 8:05Speaker 7: and making decisions and kind of gumming things up from
- 8:07Speaker 7: a bureaucratic standpoint. So 1000% support reductions there, I think
- 8:12Speaker 7: that's been something that's been needed for a long time.
- 8:14Speaker 7: There's been books written about the fact that we have
- 8:16Speaker 7: way too many people at the senior level in our
- 8:19Speaker 7: military that shouldn't be there to begin with. So that's
- 8:22Speaker 7: a great decision. I also like what he's doing on drones.
- 8:25Speaker 7: That is the future of warfare. We're seeing it in
- 8:27Speaker 7: the Ukraine battlefield. We are seeing it in the Middle East.
- 8:30Speaker 7: We're seeing it in Iran. We're seeing it from an
- 8:32Speaker 7: offensive and a defensive perspective.
- 8:36Speaker 2: We have to be on the forefront of that fight.
- 8:38Speaker 7: And I'm really glad they're creating a division within the
- 8:41Speaker 7: Department of War to focus specifically on that.
- 8:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and it saves lives.
- 8:45Speaker 1: The final one is that warrior's ethos. He made some
- 8:48Speaker 1: comments that, man, the left is hating today about kicking
- 8:52Speaker 1: people out. I won't repeat the words, but let's just
- 8:55Speaker 1: say I agree with him because I don't need somebody
- 8:58Speaker 1: next to somebody in a foxhole worried about pronouns or
- 9:03Speaker 1: gender surgery or that crap.
- 9:05Speaker 2: Just focus on the mission.
- 9:07Speaker 1: Final one to you, kicking out and getting rid of
- 9:09Speaker 1: the woke DEI in our military.
- 9:12Speaker 2: Greg Stubbe. Well, I don't know about the Beardo comment.
- 9:15Speaker 7: I'm kind of for guys with beards, especially our special
- 9:17Speaker 7: forces operators. But outside of that, I 1000% support getting
- 9:22Speaker 7: back to warrior ethos.
- 9:23Speaker 2: When I served and when.
- 9:23Speaker 7: You served, if you couldn't make the ruck march, if
- 9:26Speaker 7: you couldn't hit the target, if you couldn't do the
- 9:29Speaker 7: things that are required in battle, especially I was an
- 9:32Speaker 7: infantry guy before I went into the JAG Corps, If
- 9:34Speaker 7: you can't do that, you shouldn't be on the battlefield.
- 9:36Speaker 2: You know why?
- 9:37Speaker 7: Because if I get wounded or my brother gets wounded
- 9:39Speaker 7: and we're advancing on an objective and you can't carry
- 9:42Speaker 7: me or carry another guy, we've got problems.
- 9:45Speaker 2: You've got to be able to.
- 9:46Speaker 7: Physically do the things that are required in a combat
- 9:50Speaker 7: type environment. So I'm so glad that we're getting back
- 9:53Speaker 7: to that. It is the department of war for a reason.
- 9:56Speaker 7: And we should be focused on winning wars. And that
- 9:59Speaker 7: takes athleticism. outstanding, strong individuals that can be at the
- 10:04Speaker 7: level that we need them to be at in a
- 10:06Speaker 7: combat situation.
- 10:07Speaker 2: You got it.
- 10:07Speaker 1: I knew you were the right guy for this interview.
- 10:09Speaker 1: I think most Americans agree with both you and I.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Congressman Greg Stubbe, best of luck. I know you're going
- 10:14Speaker 1: to take your 17th district come November 3rd. I'll let
- 10:19Speaker 1: you get back on the campaign trail.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Thank you, Greg. Thanks, Dan.
- 10:21Speaker 8: Good to see you.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Nice seeing you.
- 10:22Speaker 1: All righty, coming up after the break, South Carolina Congressman
- 10:25Speaker 1: Ralph Norman will be here to discuss the GOP strategy
- 10:28Speaker 1: for hopefully winning in November.
- 10:30Speaker 2: Plus, did you hear? Tennessee botched another lethal injection.
- 10:34Speaker 1: That woman was sentenced to death over 30 years ago,
- 10:37Speaker 1: and they couldn't kill her last night after two injections.
- 10:40Speaker 1: And it's the second time the doctor's done it in
- 10:43Speaker 1: four months.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Plus, a bit later on the program.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Did you watch the debate last night between Steve Hilton
- 10:48Speaker 1: and Javier Becerra, the two guys trying to become California's
- 10:51Speaker 1: next governor?
- 10:52Speaker 2: Well, if you didn't, because it was on CNN, no worries.

- 11:34Speaker 9: I said a couple of weeks ago that we had
- 11:36Speaker 9: a big but limited opportunity to get some really consequential
- 11:41Speaker 9: things done. And unfortunately, it's been very shameful that the
- 11:45Speaker 9: Democrats have decided to play politics rather than to work
- 11:51Speaker 9: with us to do what I believe is really consequential legislation.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Look, I'll throw the Dems under the bus every day
- 11:58Speaker 1: of the week. But let me tell you something. When
- 12:01Speaker 1: you Republican senators don't work for us and take another break,
- 12:04Speaker 1: I'm going to throw you right under that same dang bus.
- 12:07Speaker 1: So as we've told you, the Senate got back from
- 12:08Speaker 1: a summer recess only two weeks ago in a couple
- 12:11Speaker 1: of days, right? And now they're already leaving Washington.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Now, I get it.
- 12:16Speaker 1: They got to get out to campaign because we've got
- 12:18Speaker 1: some very important Senate seats we cannot lose and over
- 12:20Speaker 1: on the House side.
- 12:21Speaker 2: And these senators are very powerful.
- 12:23Speaker 1: So them getting out there and getting their names behind
- 12:25Speaker 1: some of the candidates, that's a great thing.
- 12:27Speaker 2: But I'm sorry, Mr. Thune, you came back to work
- 12:31Speaker 2: for two and a half weeks.
- 12:32Speaker 1: You didn't pass the Save America Act. and you know
- 12:34Speaker 1: you could have, get rid of that dang filibuster and
- 12:37Speaker 1: go through with it like President Trump has begged you
- 12:40Speaker 1: to do. House Republicans have passed all kinds of bills
- 12:45Speaker 1: over the last several months, over the last year, over
- 12:47Speaker 1: the last year and a half.
- 12:47Speaker 2: What have you guys done? Like, seriously, the numbers are
- 12:50Speaker 2: like triple digits on the House side of bills.
- 12:52Speaker 1: Passed, and y'all have only passed a couple. Let's talk
- 12:56Speaker 1: about the Clarity Act. Have you heard about the Clarity Act?
- 12:59Speaker 1: This landmark bill would have established the first cryptocurrency regulation
- 13:03Speaker 1: in U.S. history, and it was heavily supported by President Trump,
- 13:06Speaker 1: but it failed to pass on Tuesday.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Why?
- 13:08Speaker 1: Because every Democrat and four Republicans voted against it.
- 13:13Speaker 2: If that's not bad enough, let's talk about the Stop
- 13:15Speaker 2: Insider Trading Act.
- 13:16Speaker 1: That bill would prohibit members of Congress, all members of Congress,
- 13:19Speaker 1: and their spouses and their dependent kids from buying new
- 13:23Speaker 1: publicly traded securities, and it was blocked this week. Senate
- 13:27Speaker 1: Democrats said it didn't go far enough, and they opposed
- 13:30Speaker 1: the attached voter ID requirement that Republicans tried to add in.
- 13:34Speaker 2: You're not going to be able to sneak it in, guys.
- 13:36Speaker 2: Just nuke the filibuster.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Although we saw one deal, I guess, this week from
- 13:41Speaker 1: the Senate, senators from both parties reached a deal on
- 13:44Speaker 1: a bill designed to speed up the permitting process for
- 13:47Speaker 1: new energy and infrastructure projects, while also requiring data centers
- 13:52Speaker 1: to pay for their own energy costs.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Yay, thank you. But, oh, wait. Here's the hiccup.
- 13:59Speaker 1: We won't see that kick in until after the midterms.
- 14:04Speaker 1: In the meantime, we've got to focus on winning in November.
- 14:08Speaker 1: What are we, 34 days out or something? The Democrat Party,
- 14:11Speaker 1: they have gone full socialism and big government. They want
- 14:16Speaker 1: you to pray to the DC gods. Established Democrats are
- 14:21Speaker 1: asleep at the wheel.
- 14:22Speaker 2: They're power hungry.
- 14:23Speaker 1: And these young socialists are taking over their party day
- 14:27Speaker 1: by day, and they don't care.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Oh, we're a big tent party. We let them all in. Republicans,
- 14:33Speaker 2: get out there and do your job.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Show them the positives you have done while showing the
- 14:38Speaker 1: American people the damage that socialism and socialist Democrats are doing.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Speaker of the House Mike Johnson sounding the alarm bells
- 14:47Speaker 1: for weeks.
- 14:49Speaker 10: The barbarians are now inside the gate. By our count,
- 14:52Speaker 10: there's almost 40 openly avowed Marxist, communist, socialist. They're all
- 14:57Speaker 10: in the same camp. Marxism, you understand, in Marxism, socialism
- 15:01Speaker 10: is a step to get to communism. In fact, communism
- 15:04Speaker 10: has been the result of the murder of tens of
- 15:06Speaker 10: millions of innocent people in the 20th century alone. It
- 15:09Speaker 10: is built upon the wrong premises. It begins with a
- 15:13Speaker 10: premise that there is no God, for example. And America
- 15:16Speaker 10: is one nation under God. And that has been the secret,
- 15:18Speaker 10: the foundational truth of why we have stood for all
- 15:21Speaker 10: these great principles and why we've been the greatest nation.
- 15:23Speaker 10: We are not going to go down that road. And
- 15:25Speaker 10: we have almost 40 of these people who have won elections.
- 15:28Speaker 10: They've won these Democrat primaries in these blue states and
- 15:32Speaker 10: districts and other places as well at the congressional level.
- 15:35Speaker 8: And in the states. This is a serious threat to us.
- 15:38Speaker 8: They're coming to the to the people's house.
- 15:41Speaker 2: It is a serious threat. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Now can we get the rest of the GOP saying
- 15:45Speaker 1: the same thing on the campaign trail? Joining me now
- 15:48Speaker 1: to weigh in on all this, he's a member of
- 15:51Speaker 1: the House Budget and Financial Services Committees, South Carolina Congressman
- 15:54Speaker 1: Ralph Norman, back on the program. Ralph, and be honest,
- 16:00Speaker 1: do you think that the GOP nationally is doing a
- 16:03Speaker 1: good enough job with just a little over a month
- 16:06Speaker 1: away by really showing the contrast between what the GOP
- 16:11Speaker 1: and Republicans stand for and what the Democrat Party has become.
- 16:14Speaker 1: They are embracing socialism in America, a country based on
- 16:19Speaker 1: a constitutional republic with capitalism as our main market objective.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Not socialism, not communism. And there, you heard the speaker,
- 16:28Speaker 2: 40-some races have socialists running against Republicans. Ralph, welcome back.
- 16:35Speaker 4: You know, the alarm bells are going off Big time, Dan.
- 16:39Speaker 11: What the Republican Party has failed to do is to
- 16:42Speaker 11: show the American people willing to fight, willing to stay
- 16:45Speaker 11: in Congress, nuke the filibuster.
- 16:48Speaker 4: Keep them up all night, walk. When you talk.
- 16:51Speaker 11: About legislation, Dan, the House over the last two years
- 16:55Speaker 11: has passed 674 bills. The Senate has only passed 124,
- 16:56Speaker 11: 125 of them. That's 21%. What you have is a
- 17:05Speaker 11: total disdain for the public, for the voting public by
- 17:09Speaker 11: the Senate and then the House, too. We've done better. But,
- 17:14Speaker 11: you know, I'm tired of we make excuses. You can't
- 17:17Speaker 11: just blame the Democrats now.
- 17:19Speaker 4: No, I will. I will agree.
- 17:21Speaker 11: We're looking at losing the country with the socialism, communism
- 17:25Speaker 11: that will take place. They will do away with the Senate,
- 17:28Speaker 11: do away with the Washington, make Washington state. do away
- 17:33Speaker 11: with electoral college. And this country would be, you gotta fight.
- 17:37Speaker 11: And there has not been a willingness of either body
- 17:40Speaker 11: to really fight. It's been a preservation of doing nothing.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Yes. See, Ralph, that's what I think's happening. I'm just
- 17:47Speaker 2: gonna throw it out here.
- 17:48Speaker 1: I feel like, because you only got, you know, 53
- 17:51Speaker 1: and 47, and we see them all chummy-chummy, I feel
- 17:53Speaker 1: like these senators.
- 17:55Speaker 2: care.
- 17:55Speaker 1: More about their position of power and trying to go
- 17:59Speaker 1: along to get along with their Democrat colleagues across the aisle,
- 18:03Speaker 1: that they never want to go out on that limb
- 18:05Speaker 1: for us and put those Democrats in their place.
- 18:10Speaker 2: They want to try and get along.
- 18:12Speaker 1: And that's disgusting when you see that that party has embraced,
- 18:15Speaker 1: as the speaker said, socialism, which is only a step
- 18:18Speaker 1: to communism.
- 18:19Speaker 2: And Mr.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Thune, he's one of the biggest disappointments in my book
- 18:23Speaker 1: I've ever seen. And I've been a registered Republican since
- 18:26Speaker 1: like 1992. And I'm sick of it right now, Ralph,
- 18:31Speaker 1: because I'll tell you what. If we lose this in November,
- 18:34Speaker 1: and I'm only worried about the House. I think we
- 18:36Speaker 1: can hold the Senate, but you never know. If we
- 18:38Speaker 1: lose either body, I'm not blaming it on Democrats or
- 18:41Speaker 1: the American voter, even though I think voters need to
- 18:43Speaker 1: get their heads checked if they're going to vote for
- 18:45Speaker 1: these damn Democrats. But I will blame the Senate Republicans
- 18:48Speaker 1: and the GOP overall for not doing their job of
- 18:52Speaker 1: contrasting the difference between the parties and what we stand for, Ralph.
- 18:56Speaker 11: Well, when you see the Save America Act, which is
- 19:00Speaker 11: nothing more than verifying that you're an American.
- 19:02Speaker 4: Citizen with proof of citizenship before.
- 19:05Speaker 11: You vote, when you can't get that passed and you're
- 19:07Speaker 11: unwilling to fight for that, then it just shows you
- 19:11Speaker 11: where the Senate has gone, which is it's made up
- 19:15Speaker 11: of a lot of most, all of them, I know
- 19:18Speaker 11: it's 53-47 majority Republican, but you have the majority of
- 19:23Speaker 11: them are Democrats. They just run with the Republicans name
- 19:26Speaker 11: beside what they supposedly represent, less government, less taxes, less regulations.
- 19:31Speaker 11: It's not happening. The American people deserve better. What I
- 19:35Speaker 11: realized when I ran for the Senate, it's a closed
- 19:38Speaker 11: body that does not want to do anything. Lisa Murkowski
- 19:45Speaker 11: endorsed my opponent, and Donald Trump went with them.
- 19:48Speaker 4: He joined hands with the Democrats.
- 19:50Speaker 11: To elect somebody that was backed by Lisa Murkowski. But
- 19:55Speaker 11: all that being said is that we're losing our country,
- 19:59Speaker 11: and the people.
- 20:00Speaker 4: Are not willing to fight.
- 20:01Speaker 2: That's what I'm worried about.
- 20:02Speaker 11: There is no way that they should have left Congress,
- 20:07Speaker 11: the Senate, and to be honest with you, the House, Dan,
- 20:10Speaker 11: we ought to be having press conferences every week. But
- 20:14Speaker 11: I know you have to get out and campaign, but
- 20:17Speaker 11: for God's sake, put the country above going back in office.
- 20:21Speaker 11: If you do your job, it's... You'll win.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Yes. If we see your... Listen, your words fall.
- 20:27Speaker 1: On deaf ears to American people these days when you're
- 20:30Speaker 1: an elected official.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Sorry to break it to y'all. in D.C. and in
- 20:34Speaker 2: state capitals. It's the action. We want to see some action.
- 20:37Speaker 1: And if you're not out there doing something about it, then, yeah,
- 20:41Speaker 1: either Republicans are going to, and I hope to God,
- 20:43Speaker 1: not vote the other way, they're just going to stay
- 20:44Speaker 1: home November 3rd. And you know if we stay home,
- 20:48Speaker 1: you just hand it to the damn Democrats.
- 20:51Speaker 11: And it's such a sad, such a sad state for
- 20:53Speaker 11: the country because, you know, I hate it for our
- 20:56Speaker 11: young people. I hate it for the concentration of power
- 21:00Speaker 11: will be in the hands of total lunatics. And to
- 21:03Speaker 11: get them out, it's going to take twice the work
- 21:06Speaker 11: and twice the amount of effort.
- 21:08Speaker 4: And like Speaker Johnson said, they're in the gates now. Dan,
- 21:12Speaker 4: they're here.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:13Speaker 4: And they're openly involved.
- 21:15Speaker 11: I mean, why do you think they opened the borders
- 21:18Speaker 11: up for four years under Biden?
- 21:19Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Because if they get back in control of all three, Ralph,
- 21:24Speaker 1: they're going to legalize all of them and y'all are
- 21:25Speaker 1: never going to win another election in you and I's
- 21:28Speaker 1: freaking lifetime. And this country will not be a free
- 21:32Speaker 1: republic with capitalism.
- 21:34Speaker 2: It won't.
- 21:35Speaker 1: They are going to fundamentally change this nation. I give
- 21:37Speaker 1: you the last word, Ralph. I got about 30 seconds left.
- 21:39Speaker 4: Well, it's like losing your health.
- 21:41Speaker 11: I mean, you can abandon it and go do what
- 21:44Speaker 11: you want, and then when the health is gone, then
- 21:46Speaker 11: you know what you've lost.
- 21:48Speaker 4: We're losing the.
- 21:48Speaker 11: Health of this country, and we're doing it faster than
- 21:51Speaker 11: is imaginable, and Republicans are to blame and the Democrats,
- 21:55Speaker 11: and I just hate it for the country. We're a
- 21:57Speaker 11: great country, and we just celebrated 250 years, and I
- 22:01Speaker 11: hate it for the people, the young people coming up.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Yeah, let's get out and fight for it. You might
- 22:06Speaker 1: be pissed off with the GOP right now. I'm talking
- 22:08Speaker 1: to my viewers, Ralph, not you, sorry. And I get
- 22:10Speaker 1: that you're pissed off. Listen to what I've been saying
- 22:12Speaker 1: on this program. And I'm a diehard conservative Republican Christian
- 22:16Speaker 1: patriotic veteran. But I'm telling you what, if you stay
- 22:19Speaker 1: home or if God forbid, you're thinking about, let's try
- 22:22Speaker 1: the Democrats to try Republicans. No, you will fundamentally change
- 22:26Speaker 1: this nation. It'll be bad for you and the next.
- 22:28Speaker 1: How many generations of your family? Ralph's right on this one.
- 22:31Speaker 2: So even if you hate it, bite the bullet and
- 22:34Speaker 2: vote Republican or we're going to lose the Republic. Ralph.
- 22:38Speaker 2: Take care, my friend. Thanks for coming back on.
- 22:39Speaker 4: Thank you, Dan. Appreciate it.
- 22:41Speaker 2: Yep, straight ahead. Did you hear?
- 22:44Speaker 1: They tried to put a woman on death row to
- 22:46Speaker 1: death last night down in Tennessee, and they botched it.
- 22:50Speaker 1: And let me tell you, this demonic murderer, she probably
- 22:54Speaker 1: should have been put to death.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Now she's in critical condition. Family members of the victim
- 22:58Speaker 2: scratching their heads. What happened? And then I learned this
- 23:01Speaker 2: was like the second time this happened in Tennessee in
- 23:03Speaker 2: the last year. We're going to dive into that when
- 23:06Speaker 2: we come back.
- 23:12Speaker 1: For all of our viewers out there asking where to

- 23:48Speaker 12: For a thorough and comprehensive and third party review and
- 23:55Speaker 12: investigation into the protocol. That investigation will be thorough and
- 24:00Speaker 12: it's going to take time. And therefore, the last scheduled
- 24:05Speaker 12: execution for this year will not take place.
- 24:08Speaker 2: You think?
- 24:09Speaker 1: That was Tennessee's Governor Bill Lee on the news today
- 24:13Speaker 1: talking about another, I'll get to that, another failed execution
- 24:17Speaker 1: of a death row inmate, this one a female, Krista Pike.
- 24:21Speaker 2: It's a huge story. You've probably seen it somewhere today.
- 24:24Speaker 1: As we speak, unless it's changed, Pike, who's been on
- 24:27Speaker 1: death row for 30 years, is now receiving life care,
- 24:32Speaker 1: trying to keep her alive, I guess, after a botched
- 24:35Speaker 1: execution attempt. Now, Last we checked, she got two full
- 24:40Speaker 1: doses of the lethal injection chemicals Wednesday night, but survived somehow,
- 24:47Speaker 1: remained conscious, still breathing, but is in critical condition.
- 24:51Speaker 2: She was rushed to a local hospital.
- 24:53Speaker 1: As you heard, the governor, he's putting all executions on
- 24:55Speaker 1: hold for the whole rest of the year, and now
- 24:57Speaker 1: the governor wants an independent review, the third party to
- 25:00Speaker 1: find out what the heck went wrong. Again, that's the
- 25:06Speaker 1: second time this has happened in Tennessee this year and
- 25:09Speaker 1: within like four months. We'll get to that with our
- 25:11Speaker 1: next guest. But let me tell you who this sick
- 25:14Speaker 1: woman is. In the spring of 96, Pike was convicted
- 25:18Speaker 1: and sentenced to death for killing Colleen Slemmer, a 19-year-old
- 25:23Speaker 1: classmate of hers at a federal job training program down
- 25:26Speaker 1: in Knoxville. Pike was only a teen then, 18 I
- 25:30Speaker 1: believe or 19, when she murdered Slemmer. They say she
- 25:34Speaker 1: did it out of jealousy. I guess she thought that
- 25:37Speaker 1: Slemmer was trying to steal her boyfriend. Working with two
- 25:40Speaker 1: other people, Pike trapped her, then smashed her head with
- 25:45Speaker 1: a rock, and then took a piece of her skull
- 25:48Speaker 1: with her. Pike and her two cronies carved a pentagram
- 25:53Speaker 1: into Slemmer's chest. I think they were possessed by a demon,
- 25:57Speaker 1: in my opinion. Slemmer was found the next morning All
- 26:01Speaker 1: three were convicted, and then that brings us back to
- 26:03Speaker 1: putting her down like a dirty, sick dog.
- 26:06Speaker 2: Sorry, I know people like hearing that about women. That's
- 26:09Speaker 2: why we don't put women to death as much. But
- 26:10Speaker 2: when you do.
- 26:11Speaker 1: Something sick, sorry, I'm Old Testament. Now, witnesses spoke about
- 26:16Speaker 1: what they saw, and their comments are haunting.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Watch this.
- 26:21Speaker 13: I've witnessed, I believe, five executions in Tennessee. Nothing about
- 26:26Speaker 13: today was normal, typical at all. And the court delay
- 26:30Speaker 13: was just the tip of the iceberg. And then her
- 26:33Speaker 13: advisor says, relax. And she says, I'm trying. Yeah, she's
- 26:38Speaker 13: talking throughout this, then starts breathing, moaning, snoring. The curtains
- 26:46Speaker 13: close at first at 746. And she was clearly still alive.
- 26:51Speaker 13: She was clearly still breathing and snoring. We could audibly
- 26:54Speaker 13: hear that. The curtains open again. Three minutes later, she
- 26:58Speaker 13: was snoring very loudly at that point. Mouth open, snoring.
- 27:02Speaker 13: And then the curtains close again at 8.05. And that's
- 27:10Speaker 13: when they remained closed.
- 27:12Speaker 2: Just do the firing squad.
- 27:14Speaker 1: Joining us now with reaction to this latest botched lethal injection.
- 27:19Speaker 1: And again, I say latest because I'm informed one happened
- 27:22Speaker 1: back in May at the hands of the same doctor.
- 27:26Speaker 2: Kind of weird.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Our next guest represents Tennessee's 14th district state representative, Jason Zachary,
- 27:32Speaker 1: on the program for the first time. Jason, thanks for
- 27:35Speaker 1: coming on here. So my team sent me this info.
- 27:38Speaker 1: There is a doctor, it's Mark Fowler, who tried to
- 27:43Speaker 1: put to death Tony Carruthers back on May 21st of
- 27:47Speaker 1: this year in your state, didn't work, and then tried
- 27:50Speaker 1: to put Ms. Pike down last night, didn't work. Do
- 27:53Speaker 1: we think maybe our prison system in Tennessee should get.
- 27:57Speaker 2: A new doctor?
- 27:59Speaker 8: Yes. So, Dan, it's very concerning. It's embarrassing.
- 28:03Speaker 5: The Tennessee Department of Corrections must be held accountable. The
- 28:06Speaker 5: commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Corrections should resign immediately
- 28:10Speaker 5: for the actions that have transpired in our state in
- 28:13Speaker 5: May and most recently last night. I feel for the
- 28:17Speaker 5: Slimmer family to walk through what they've walked through for
- 28:20Speaker 5: 30 plus years and then to move toward getting justice yesterday.
- 28:25Speaker 5: And that did not happen because this, as you said,
- 28:27Speaker 5: evil demon possessed person literally committed this heinous.
- 28:30Speaker 8: Act and was on death row for 30 years.
- 28:33Speaker 5: It's unfortunate all the way around, but man, I really
- 28:36Speaker 5: feel for the Slimmer family and what they've had to
- 28:38Speaker 5: go through now for three decades that literally was capped
- 28:42Speaker 5: last night with a terrible, unfortunate event.
- 28:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm sure some of those family members were
- 28:46Speaker 1: present and then had to witness something horrific that a
- 28:49Speaker 1: woman didn't get put down like she should have. And
- 28:52Speaker 1: we were all told years ago when we got rid
- 28:54Speaker 1: of old Sparky, the electric chair, or the gas chambers,
- 28:56Speaker 1: or the firing squads, which I think two states still do,
- 28:59Speaker 1: that this was gonna be so much more humane, it's fine,
- 29:02Speaker 1: do this. But then we're getting botched lethal injections. This
- 29:05Speaker 1: isn't the first time it's happened, not just in Tennessee,
- 29:06Speaker 1: it's happened in other states.
- 29:08Speaker 2: And either the.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Person then lives in limbo until we put them down
- 29:12Speaker 1: some other way, or they're then, I don't know, I
- 29:15Speaker 1: looked up, the guy that he botched in May is
- 29:17Speaker 1: still alive. So where do the families get justice? You're
- 29:21Speaker 1: a state or the U.S. Senator there representing your state.
- 29:25Speaker 1: Senator Marsha Blackburn has been a guest before. She's now
- 29:28Speaker 1: saying Tennessee should reinstate the electric chair. Bring old Sparky back.
- 29:33Speaker 1: I got a different opinion, Jason, being a veteran. Bring
- 29:35Speaker 1: back the firing squad. They still do it in Utah
- 29:38Speaker 1: and elsewhere. And I'm telling you what is far as
- 29:40Speaker 1: pain and for the folks that don't like the death penalty,
- 29:44Speaker 1: you got a firing squad. You put some here and here.
- 29:47Speaker 1: They don't feel anything, and they're gone, and it usually
- 29:49Speaker 1: isn't botched. And they're not breathing in something and suffocating
- 29:52Speaker 1: from a gas chamber or waiting for the injection to work.
- 29:55Speaker 2: And if it's not in the vein, it doesn't work.
- 29:56Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about any of that.
- 29:58Speaker 1: And with the electric chair, we've seen problems where they've
- 30:00Speaker 1: got to juice them a couple times to finish the job.
- 30:03Speaker 1: I've never heard of a firing squad missing. Your thoughts
- 30:05Speaker 1: on what Tennessee should do.
- 30:07Speaker 5: I fully support Senator Blackburn, who will be our next
- 30:09Speaker 5: governor in the state of Tennessee, in bringing back the
- 30:12Speaker 5: electorate chair. It's interesting you mentioned the firing squad. I
- 30:15Speaker 5: actually mentioned that to our speaker today. It's something that
- 30:19Speaker 5: we should move back to. I am not concerned about,
- 30:21Speaker 5: as I believe you alluded to this, about what may
- 30:25Speaker 5: seem as inhumane when we're dealing with murderers who have
- 30:29Speaker 5: inflicted harm on our society, and you've got somebody like
- 30:32Speaker 5: this who, again, committed a heinous act And 30 years ago,
- 30:37Speaker 5: committed this heinous act, carved a pentagram on this poor,
- 30:40Speaker 5: unfortunate girl. And this family's had to suffer through that.
- 30:43Speaker 5: She should have been executed the day after the verdict
- 30:46Speaker 5: came in. But yet taxpayers have been on the hook
- 30:48Speaker 5: for this for 30 years. The Tennessee Supreme Court steps in.
- 30:52Speaker 5: And they rule that you can move forward with the execution.
- 30:55Speaker 5: But because of our appeal process federally, this is drug
- 30:58Speaker 5: on for 30 plus years. And so I think we
- 31:01Speaker 5: need to call on Congress to take action to correct this.
- 31:04Speaker 5: Because again, when states make these decisions, like a conservative
- 31:07Speaker 5: state like Tennessee, and we administer justice, we should be
- 31:10Speaker 5: able to do that in the way we feel appropriate.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Yes.
- 31:13Speaker 8: For not only just.
- 31:14Speaker 5: For society in general, but for the benefit of these families,
- 31:17Speaker 5: especially the slimmer family that has suffered so much.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Jason, I got about 10 seconds left. What's going to
- 31:23Speaker 1: be done with Miss Pike? What are you hearing from
- 31:24Speaker 1: the prison system and the governor? She'll just stay alive
- 31:27Speaker 1: and whatever, like the guy they messed up in May
- 31:30Speaker 1: until they figured this whole thing out?
- 31:32Speaker 5: Before I came on, Dan, I checked with our AG's office.
- 31:34Speaker 5: They still don't know the status. She's still in what
- 31:37Speaker 5: is considered critical condition. And so she sits there now.
- 31:40Speaker 5: And so we really don't know the next step. And
- 31:42Speaker 5: I asked, well, if you can give me a path forward.
- 31:44Speaker 5: And they said, well, right now we don't have a
- 31:45Speaker 5: path forward. because we don't know what the prognosis is.
- 31:48Speaker 5: And so it's a wait and see. And we've got
- 31:51Speaker 5: to determine what the next step is. Our challenge from
- 31:53Speaker 5: a legislative perspective is right now we're part-time legislators, not
- 31:56Speaker 5: in session. And so my hope is after the election,
- 32:00Speaker 5: we're able to bring in TDOT, hold a hearing and
- 32:03Speaker 5: help bring real accountability to this and walk alongside the
- 32:07Speaker 5: governor so this never happens again in our state.
- 32:09Speaker 2: Well, here's my thing.
- 32:10Speaker 1: If we're keeping her on life support and she has
- 32:12Speaker 1: a death sentence and the death sentence didn't work, why
- 32:16Speaker 1: are we keeping her on life support?
- 32:17Speaker 2: Just pull the plug and.
- 32:19Speaker 4: Put this to bed.
- 32:20Speaker 8: That's right, Dan.
- 32:21Speaker 2: I agree.
- 32:22Speaker 8: Thank you.
- 32:23Speaker 1: Representing District 14 down there in the great state of Tennessee,
- 32:26Speaker 1: Jason Zachary.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Thank you, sir, for coming on.
- 32:28Speaker 8: Thank you, Dan. Appreciate you.

- 33:39Speaker 14: when you were in the Biden cabinet, she described you
- 33:42Speaker 14: as an idiot. She called you ass. Why did Susan Rice,
- 33:47Speaker 14: a respected political leader, call you an idiot?
- 33:51Speaker 2: Thank you, Steve, for giving me something to chuckle about
- 33:54Speaker 2: in politics today. And could you just see Susan Rice?
- 33:56Speaker 2: Remember her? I mean, she was a serious, hard-nosed lady
- 33:58Speaker 2: working for Obama, calling.
- 34:00Speaker 1: That guy Becerra a badass. Anyway, I hope you didn't watch,
- 34:07Speaker 1: but I kind of hope you did, only because the
- 34:09Speaker 1: debate last night was on CNN. But our friend Steve Hilton,
- 34:14Speaker 1: the Republican candidate for California's gubernatorial race, I think crushed that.
- 34:19Speaker 1: the career politician, Javier Becerra, last night. Remember the clown
- 34:23Speaker 1: that served as HHS secretary under Joe Biden, the clown,
- 34:27Speaker 1: the idiot that lost like 350 or 400,000 migrant kids. Now, again,
- 34:34Speaker 1: they clashed on every single issue last night, affordability, housing, homelessness, drugs,
- 34:41Speaker 1: you name it. But the takeaway, if you didn't watch
- 34:43Speaker 1: the debate on CNN, and again, I hope you didn't,
- 34:45Speaker 1: we don't want to give them any ratings, but I
- 34:47Speaker 1: also want people to see how brilliant Steve is versus
- 34:50Speaker 1: this career politician clown, Javier. Becerra manufactured and helped to
- 34:57Speaker 1: create with Biden and Kamala that crisis at our southern border.
- 35:01Speaker 2: And Hilton called him out on it, as he should.
- 35:04Speaker 2: They are responsible for the invasion of our nation over
- 35:08Speaker 2: a four-year period where 18 million people came in. Again,
- 35:12Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of kids were lost. Drugs, guns, terrorists
- 35:15Speaker 2: poured in, and this clown helped make it happen.
- 35:21Speaker 14: You sent thousands of young children directly into the clutches
- 35:26Speaker 14: of child sex and labor traffickers. Hundreds of thousands of
- 35:31Speaker 14: children that you were responsible for are still missing today.
- 35:36Speaker 14: A hundred thousand of them are under 10 years old.
- 35:41Speaker 14: So I cannot believe that you haven't apologized, that you
- 35:46Speaker 14: have any kind of sense of shame or responsibility for
- 35:50Speaker 14: what you did to those children, and you stand here
- 35:53Speaker 14: lecturing people about immigration when you treated these most vulnerable children,
- 35:58Speaker 14: unaccompanied children, in this way?
- 36:02Speaker 8: Those retread Trump talking points.
- 36:05Speaker 14: It was the New York Times, and they won a
- 36:07Speaker 14: Pulitzer Prize for it.
- 36:08Speaker 1: Sorry, Javier, can't blame that one on Trump like you
- 36:11Speaker 1: all like to do for everything wrong in California.
- 36:15Speaker 2: It's all Trump's fault.
- 36:16Speaker 1: Joining me now with reaction to last night's debate, she's
- 36:19Speaker 1: an attorney, she's a former DHS spokeswoman, and now she's
- 36:22Speaker 1: a senior communications advisor over at Trump Media Technology Group
- 36:25Speaker 1: and True Social, our good friend Katie Zachariah, back on
- 36:28Speaker 1: the program. I don't know if you could stomach your
- 36:31Speaker 1: whole way through that and watching the folks running it, Ms.
- 36:35Speaker 1: Dana Bash and Tapper, Jakey over at CNN. But what
- 36:37Speaker 1: did you think last night, Katie?
- 36:39Speaker 2: Welcome back.
- 36:40Speaker 15: Well, first of all, it's so nice to see a
- 36:43Speaker 15: Republican holding a Democrat in California accountable, right? We don't
- 36:47Speaker 15: get this. The only person who's actually taken to the
- 36:51Speaker 15: leadership in California has been President Trump time and time
- 36:55Speaker 15: and time again. Vice President Vance with his anti-fraud task
- 36:59Speaker 15: force time and time again. But now we have Finally,
- 37:01Speaker 15: a gubernatorial candidate who's actually holding Javier Becerra, not just accountable,
- 37:06Speaker 15: but on live CNN. I mean, that had to be
- 37:09Speaker 15: so embarrassing for Becerra. This is just a Trump talking point.
- 37:14Speaker 15: That last part, actually, this is the New York Times
- 37:17Speaker 15: and they won a Pulitzer. This is not a Trump
- 37:19Speaker 15: talking point. And you're responsible for losing those children. And
- 37:22Speaker 15: yet we're going to put you in charge of a
- 37:24Speaker 15: state that's already crumbling in infrastructure, that had a wide
- 37:27Speaker 15: open border. And what are we going to trust you
- 37:29Speaker 15: to do? Run this like you ran HHS into the ground?
- 37:32Speaker 15: I mean, this is absolutely would be the nail in
- 37:36Speaker 15: the coffin with Becerra in California for California, Dan.
- 37:40Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, exactly.
- 37:41Speaker 1: Look, look, I feel like we've set the bar so
- 37:46Speaker 1: low with Newsom. It's like if we get stuck with
- 37:48Speaker 1: another darn Democrat and God forbid I please, please, please, Lord,
- 37:52Speaker 1: I'm praying for Steve. If we get stuck with Becerra,
- 37:55Speaker 1: he's going to be even worse than a Newsom. And
- 37:58Speaker 1: forget policy, because we already know where the Democrats are.
- 38:01Speaker 1: They're bat-you-know-what crazy. They're socialists now, or they're embracing socialism.
- 38:05Speaker 1: But he's just a horrible candidate. The guy's got no charisma.
- 38:09Speaker 1: He doesn't have good sound bites. He doesn't do interviews.
- 38:12Speaker 1: He's just a horrible candidate. If this guy wins, it's
- 38:15Speaker 1: only because California is full of more Democrats than red-blooded
- 38:19Speaker 1: patriotic Americans.
- 38:20Speaker 2: That's all I'll say.
- 38:21Speaker 15: And Dan, I want to add that one of the
- 38:23Speaker 15: things that has kept Gavin Newsom somewhat restrained is that
- 38:27Speaker 15: he likely wants to run for president. So what has
- 38:30Speaker 15: he done? He basically forced a settlement with Paramount. So
- 38:34Speaker 15: he knows that if he drove that business, Paramount, which
- 38:37Speaker 15: is a huge business, Industry in California if he drew
- 38:40Speaker 15: them drove them out of California He would have that
- 38:43Speaker 15: on his what his record as he runs for president
- 38:46Speaker 15: So he has actually come in a little bit more
- 38:49Speaker 15: restrained here Because he wants this he wants to appeal
- 38:52Speaker 15: to oh guess what the seven swing states in middle
- 38:55Speaker 15: America Yes, he wants to run for president but Sarah
- 38:58Speaker 15: does not want to run for president So he would
- 38:59Speaker 15: be less restrained and more radical right now.
- 39:03Speaker 1: I know he's gonna be worse than Newsom if if
- 39:05Speaker 1: if he gets, and I know some of the polls
- 39:07Speaker 1: have him up huge double digits, but I don't buy
- 39:09Speaker 1: polls because they had Hillary Clinton winning by double digits
- 39:12Speaker 1: over Donald J.
- 39:13Speaker 2: Trump.
- 39:13Speaker 1: I think it was 16 points the week before the
- 39:15Speaker 1: election in 2016, so I don't buy those. Speaking of Newsom,
- 39:18Speaker 1: I'm so glad you brought him up because I want
- 39:20Speaker 1: your reaction to a handful of headlines so folks that
- 39:23Speaker 1: either live here or anywhere understand how bad it is
- 39:26Speaker 1: under a radical Democrat like a Newsom. So last night
- 39:29Speaker 1: on the program, we did a whole segment on artificial
- 39:32Speaker 1: intelligence with President Trump just renaming it super intelligence and
- 39:35Speaker 1: having that huge meeting with all the tech giants to
- 39:37Speaker 1: get everybody on the same page. So like a child
- 39:40Speaker 1: on the same day, Newsom signs an executive order for
- 39:43Speaker 1: the state of California saying, we will always call AI
- 39:46Speaker 1: artificial intelligence and not super. just so he could stick
- 39:51Speaker 1: a thorn in the president's side. What a child this
- 39:55Speaker 1: 50-some-year-old guy is.
- 39:56Speaker 2: Katie?
- 39:57Speaker 15: Yeah, and I think it's missing a lot of America here.
- 39:59Speaker 4: And you and I probably.
- 40:01Speaker 15: Completely appreciate it because we're native Californians or we live
- 40:04Speaker 15: here in California. This is the governor of the state
- 40:08Speaker 15: that holds Silicon Valley, right? All those guys, Mark Zuckerberg,
- 40:12Speaker 15: Elon Musk, these people are all originated from where?
- 40:16Speaker 2: Guess what?
- 40:17Speaker 15: California. And yet they are there with the president of
- 40:21Speaker 15: the United States, signing this as super intelligence, agreeing to it.
- 40:25Speaker 15: You know, Jensen Huang, Every single brilliant mind, Anthropic.
- 40:30Speaker 2: Who was- Anthropic, NVIDIA, they were all there, I know.
- 40:32Speaker 2: What a moron.
- 40:33Speaker 15: All of them were there. And yet Gavin Newsom is
- 40:36Speaker 15: such a, he has such a tantrum. He's having this
- 40:38Speaker 15: little moment as a child of, I'm still gonna call
- 40:40Speaker 15: it artificial intelligence. When you think about it, it really
- 40:44Speaker 15: is not artificial intelligence that all of this, as President
- 40:48Speaker 15: Trump has so coined, is super intelligence, but it's all
- 40:51Speaker 15: originated from where? Human ingenuity.
- 40:53Speaker 2: There you go.
- 40:54Speaker 15: And it's being basically, you know, I'm not going to
- 40:57Speaker 15: try to encompass super intelligence, but it's all being put
- 41:01Speaker 15: into this super brain. And that is where I think
- 41:04Speaker 15: President Trump makes the mark and Gavin Newsom does not.
- 41:06Speaker 1: Two more I got to get to real quick, if
- 41:08Speaker 1: I can get to them. I talk a lot about
- 41:10Speaker 1: the red-green alliance, right? The Democrat socialists are teaming up
- 41:14Speaker 1: with the radical Muslims in our nation.
- 41:16Speaker 2: Here's one more where they're just kissing up to them.
- 41:19Speaker 1: Newsom signed into law that we in California now are
- 41:24Speaker 1: going to recognize Muslim state holidays, and they're even looking
- 41:29Speaker 1: into effectively being okay with some of the things in
- 41:32Speaker 1: Sharia law. I have said this for years on this program.
- 41:36Speaker 2: Sharia law.
- 41:37Speaker 1: And what most of the radical Muslims out there, I
- 41:40Speaker 1: know there's some peaceful ones, but the majority of the
- 41:42Speaker 1: ones that want to do America harm, they're already on
- 41:44Speaker 1: our soil.
- 41:45Speaker 2: This is bad. This is bad news.
- 41:48Speaker 15: Texas banned Sharia law and California should do the same.
- 41:51Speaker 15: And I want to highlight, Dan, that Good Friday, Easter,
- 41:56Speaker 15: so Easter Monday, these are not holidays that Christians get,
- 41:59Speaker 15: and so Gavin Newsom has now prioritized Muslim holidays, and
- 42:02Speaker 15: even did a secondary Jewish holiday, but this was not
- 42:07Speaker 15: the priority for him, it was the Muslim holidays, and
- 42:09Speaker 15: that we should have known this was gonna happen when
- 42:11Speaker 15: he went to go campaign for Al-Saeed in Michigan.
- 42:13Speaker 2: And that guy is radical and scary. Two more, real fast.
- 42:17Speaker 2: There's a new bill that the Democrats are trying to
- 42:19Speaker 2: push through called AB-1803. This will expand.
- 42:24Speaker 1: Harassment prevention training, and pretty much make almost anybody that
- 42:28Speaker 1: says they're offended by your speech in California a protected
- 42:31Speaker 1: class because they left the verbiage so vague. There's lots
- 42:34Speaker 1: of groups out there warning people, if this gets signed
- 42:36Speaker 1: by Newsom, which it probably will, then anybody can say,
- 42:39Speaker 1: I'm a protected class, and what my coworker says hates speech.
- 42:41Speaker 2: Now fire them. This is a bad bill. Your thoughts?
- 42:45Speaker 15: Bad bill, and it also just shows how upside down
- 42:47Speaker 15: California is. We have the lowest literacy rate in the nation,
- 42:50Speaker 15: one of the poorest education systems. highest gas prices, highest
- 42:54Speaker 15: energy prices, and what are we focusing on? Creating more
- 42:56Speaker 15: classes for more lawsuits that are just going to tie
- 43:01Speaker 15: everything up. It's just constant drama from the left Democrats.
- 43:06Speaker 1: No kidding. Final one to you. The president made a
- 43:08Speaker 1: huge announcement. We know this guy is the energy king.
- 43:11Speaker 1: Huge announcement about what Alaska's doing. Yesterday, he had all
- 43:14Speaker 1: the Alaska delegation up there, senators, congressmen, talking about this
- 43:17Speaker 1: huge pipeline that they're going to be building in connection
- 43:20Speaker 1: with South Korea, and then also possibly a huge natural
- 43:24Speaker 1: gas pipeline that would help the whole Pacific Rim. So
- 43:26Speaker 1: you're talking liberal states like Washington, Oregon, and California. So
- 43:30Speaker 1: these governors should be happy about what President Trump's doing,
- 43:33Speaker 1: but they're probably not.
- 43:35Speaker 2: Your thoughts on that, final one.
- 43:36Speaker 15: First question right out of the Oval meeting from a
- 43:39Speaker 15: reporter was, how do you explain what's happening in California?
- 43:41Speaker 15: And President Trump said, this is a disaster what's happening
- 43:44Speaker 15: in California. This pipeline, Dan, this is an 807-mile-long pipeline
- 43:50Speaker 15: that will have a terminal connected to it that will
- 43:52Speaker 15: service not just Alaska, but the entire Pacific Rim, South Korea, Japan,
- 43:57Speaker 15: and a lot of our allies through the Pacific Rim.
- 44:00Speaker 15: And this will make us one of the biggest energy exporter.
- 44:03Speaker 15: President Trump rightly said this has been a half century
- 44:06Speaker 15: in the waiting. And South Korea is now investing $ 54
- 44:10Speaker 15: billion into this. This also came with a six gigawatt
- 44:14Speaker 15: gas factory in Texas and eight new nuclear power plants.
- 44:17Speaker 15: I mean, we are now finally getting back on the
- 44:19Speaker 15: cutting edge of energy dominance and independence. And yet California
- 44:23Speaker 15: is shutting down all the refineries, all their gas. We
- 44:26Speaker 15: could put another terminal outside of California and make lots
- 44:29Speaker 15: of money, Dan.
- 44:30Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 44:30Speaker 1: And with all these moves he's making, as soon as
- 44:32Speaker 1: the conflict with Iran is over, and that's why I say, folks,
- 44:34Speaker 1: I know you're upset about the gas prices.
- 44:36Speaker 2: But we got like 34 days. Don't screw the pooch
- 44:39Speaker 2: on this one.
- 44:40Speaker 1: With all the moves he's making, fuel and natural gas,
- 44:43Speaker 1: all this is going to be so cheap down the
- 44:45Speaker 1: road from Venezuela to the Strait to what she just
- 44:47Speaker 1: said in Alaska. It is going to come down across
- 44:50Speaker 1: the board.
- 44:51Speaker 2: Out of time. Katie Zachariah, as always, thank you. Thank you.
- 44:54Speaker 2: All right, stick around. Coming up next, we have an update.
- 44:57Speaker 2: On the Lindsey Clancy triple murder trial saga, will she
- 45:02Speaker 2: face a new trial?
- 45:03Speaker 1: Or a prosecutor's going to cut a deal. Plus, her
- 45:05Speaker 1: defense attorney is flip-flopping all over the place.
- 45:08Speaker 2: Did she do it? Didn't she do it? I mean,
- 45:10Speaker 2: this is insane. We'll talk all about it when.
- 45:12Speaker 1: We come back. For all of our viewers out there

- 45:55Speaker 16: Hi, my name is Michael Peggy Desronville, also known as
- 45:58Speaker 16: the Lone Jorah. I know the whole focus has been
- 46:02Speaker 16: on me, but we want to reel everything back and
- 46:06Speaker 16: put the focus on the three angels that's at hand.
- 46:10Speaker 16: The ones that can't speak for themselves, the ones that
- 46:13Speaker 16: can't defend themselves, and the ones that can't fight the battles.
- 46:17Speaker 16: And those are Cora, Dawson, and Callan. A little bit
- 46:22Speaker 16: about me. I want to thank God for my Catholic faith.
- 46:28Speaker 16: I want to thank God for blessing me with the
- 46:29Speaker 16: ability to love my daughter. And foremost, I would like
- 46:35Speaker 16: to thank everyone, every individual that has supported me throughout
- 46:40Speaker 16: this difficult situation.
- 46:42Speaker 2: What a brave man coming forward, especially after all the hate,
- 46:47Speaker 2: the vitriol. You know who that guy is? That's Michael Desrunville.
- 46:51Speaker 1: He's the lone holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial.
- 46:56Speaker 1: And now he's coming forward, giving an in-person statement because
- 47:00Speaker 1: of the probably thousands, if not millions, of attacks he's
- 47:04Speaker 1: been receiving on social media. Crazy women out there, the
- 47:08Speaker 1: ones that were standing in front of the courthouse with the,
- 47:10Speaker 1: we heart Lindsay for killing your three kids.
- 47:13Speaker 2: We're so sorry. It was all postpartum. Look, I know
- 47:16Speaker 2: I'm a guy. I'm not allowed to weigh in on postpartum.
- 47:19Speaker 1: But I've spoken with my wife, who's currently pregnant, and
- 47:22Speaker 1: other folks who have had pregnancies. And yeah, they've told
- 47:26Speaker 1: me it gets frustrating. You feel weird, all the hormones.
- 47:29Speaker 1: You feel out-of-body experiences. But they don't feel like strangling
- 47:33Speaker 1: their three children. And so I will support that man.
- 47:36Speaker 2: Thank you. I'm tired of people online mocking you and
- 47:40Speaker 2: ridiculing and shaming you and giving you death threats because
- 47:43Speaker 2: you stood up.
- 47:45Speaker 1: For what you believe. You listened to the evidence and
- 47:48Speaker 1: you said guilty. In your mind, beyond a reasonable doubt,
- 47:52Speaker 1: you're not thinking, oh, she was only insane for the
- 47:55Speaker 1: hour or two she was strangling and then went back
- 47:57Speaker 1: to normal. No. But get this, according to reports, his
- 48:01Speaker 1: attorney now plans to file a formal state bar complaint
- 48:05Speaker 1: against Clancy's defense attorney, Kevin Reddington.
- 48:07Speaker 2: And I say, good for you, sir. The complaint will.
- 48:10Speaker 1: Address public criticism of their client and his filing of
- 48:15Speaker 1: a motion targeting their client, including one requesting the judge
- 48:19Speaker 1: to investigate him for alleged jury misconduct.
- 48:23Speaker 2: Really, Mr.
- 48:24Speaker 4: Reddington?
- 48:25Speaker 1: Because you didn't get the result you wanted. We had
- 48:29Speaker 1: a hung jury because of this one guy who truly
- 48:31Speaker 1: believed that she was guilty.
- 48:34Speaker 2: And the what?
- 48:35Speaker 1: Nine ladies on the jury had no problem right away going, no, no,
- 48:38Speaker 1: innocent by reason of insanity. Well, Reddington has called Desseronville
- 48:45Speaker 1: an obstructionist. Similarly, the prosecutors from her triple murder trial
- 48:51Speaker 1: are addressing some concerns, now seeking a gag order to
- 48:56Speaker 1: limit public comment from Clancy's defense attorney.
- 49:00Speaker 2: There's Mr. Reddington on the left side of your screen.
- 49:02Speaker 1: In a filing on Monday of this week, they argued
- 49:04Speaker 1: that Reddington's comments could be prejudice to any new jurors
- 49:10Speaker 1: if they retry the case. They also said they want
- 49:14Speaker 1: to avoid the carnival atmosphere seen at the last trial.
- 49:18Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you guys are right. are all responsible for it.
- 49:21Speaker 1: So now this attorney for Lindsey Clancy Reddington is rejecting
- 49:26Speaker 1: the allegations that he's been attacking that solo juror.
- 49:28Speaker 2: You have, but the damage has already been done. So
- 49:32Speaker 2: we'll see what happens with the gag order request. In
- 49:34Speaker 2: the meantime, some critical updates on where things stand right now.
- 49:37Speaker 2: The prosecution And the defense met.
- 49:39Speaker 1: Earlier this week for a status hearing about the old
- 49:42Speaker 1: case and the potential for a new one. Reddington, again,
- 49:46Speaker 1: that's her attorney, then stunned the court by making a
- 49:48Speaker 1: dramatic pivot. In a major shift to try and avoid
- 49:52Speaker 1: a retrial, he claimed that prosecutors failed to prove that
- 49:56Speaker 1: Clancy actually killed her kids. He told the presiding judge
- 50:00Speaker 1: that the case is based on pure speculation, contradicting everything
- 50:04Speaker 1: he said in the first trial. He never denied that
- 50:07Speaker 1: she did it, he just said that she was insane.
- 50:09Speaker 1: But wait a minute, now it's, did they even prove
- 50:12Speaker 1: she did it? Watch this flip-floppin'.
- 50:15Speaker 4: This is a woman.
- 50:17Speaker 6: That did not get The medication did not get the
- 50:22Speaker 6: medical treatment that she so deserved.
- 50:26Speaker 4: This is a woman that was suffering from.
- 50:30Speaker 6: Psychosis at the time that she went down to that basement.
- 50:36Speaker 4: Where's the evidence that she did this? Where is the
- 50:39Speaker 4: evidence that she did this?
- 50:41Speaker 1: Huh? Joining me now to weigh in on this huge flip-flopping,
- 50:44Speaker 1: the gag order, and yes, this attorney attacking the lone juror.
- 50:48Speaker 1: I've seen him do interviews. Our guest is an attorney,
- 50:51Speaker 1: if you didn't know. He's also the host of the
- 50:53Speaker 1: David Pollak Primetime Show right here on OAN. David Pollak,
- 50:57Speaker 1: back on Real America. All right, David, first, weigh in
- 51:00Speaker 1: on the flip-flopping. He was on camera that entire trial.
- 51:03Speaker 1: Nobody argued that she didn't do it. Just, was she
- 51:06Speaker 1: in her right mind? Now he's trying a new strategy.
- 51:09Speaker 1: Did you even prove she did it? We don't even
- 51:10Speaker 1: know if she did it. What is this all about, David?
- 51:13Speaker 17: I mean, I think he's trying to make the prosecutor's
- 51:17Speaker 17: job a little harder on the next trial because the
- 51:19Speaker 17: benefit that the prosecution has is they've seen his defense.
- 51:23Speaker 17: So any weaknesses in their prosecution, and clearly there were
- 51:26Speaker 17: some if 11 of the 12 jurors thought that she
- 51:28Speaker 17: was not criminally responsible in this last trial. So the
- 51:32Speaker 17: prosecution is going to have an easier time unless the
- 51:35Speaker 17: defense changes its strategy, and I think that's what they're
- 51:38Speaker 17: doing here. by removing the admission, they're making the prosecution
- 51:42Speaker 17: prove now another element of this crime, that she actually
- 51:45Speaker 17: did it. And even if you did believe that she
- 51:48Speaker 17: did it, that she was criminally responsible, if the jury
- 51:50Speaker 17: had a hard time before deciding whether or not she
- 51:54Speaker 17: was criminally responsible when she was suffering from some sort
- 51:58Speaker 17: of psychotic event, well, then they're going to have an
- 52:02Speaker 17: even harder time of overcoming whether or not she did it,
- 52:05Speaker 17: which I think they'll be able to do. But then
- 52:06Speaker 17: the second element, I think the defense here is just
- 52:09Speaker 17: trying to make it harder for a jury to reach
- 52:11Speaker 17: a verdict.
- 52:11Speaker 1: Let me ask you, because you're the attorney, I don't
- 52:13Speaker 1: know how this stuff goes, and I'm not familiar with
- 52:15Speaker 1: East Coast law.
- 52:16Speaker 2: This is what, in Massachusetts, right? Would a new judge
- 52:20Speaker 2: get assigned in this, or if there's a whole new trial?
- 52:21Speaker 17: No, it's the same judge.
- 52:23Speaker 2: Same judge if they get a whole new trial.
- 52:24Speaker 17: It's the same judge.
- 52:25Speaker 2: So they just change out the jury, obviously. New jury,
- 52:27Speaker 2: and that's it.
- 52:27Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 52:28Speaker 17: That's a new jury selection, and they'll have a new
- 52:31Speaker 17: trial the judge is staying on. I'm not sure if
- 52:33Speaker 17: the defense attorney made a motion or not to remove
- 52:35Speaker 17: this judge or not, but I doubt they'll move the judge.
- 52:39Speaker 17: But yeah, no, they just have to pick a new
- 52:40Speaker 17: jury at this point. And they haven't set a date
- 52:42Speaker 17: on when that– the next– from what I understand, in November,
- 52:45Speaker 17: when they meet again, they're going to then set a
- 52:47Speaker 17: trial date, and at that point, they'll figure out what
- 52:49Speaker 17: jury selection is going to be. If they go to
- 52:50Speaker 17: a trial.
- 52:51Speaker 1: Yeah, November 2nd is that next hearing, if you will,
- 52:55Speaker 1: or whatever, where they get together with the judge and
- 52:57Speaker 1: the attorney discuss if they're going to move forward and
- 52:59Speaker 1: when that date will be. So we're probably looking at
- 53:01Speaker 1: 2027 before this kicks off again, this circus.
- 53:04Speaker 2: This carnival.
- 53:05Speaker 1: Do you think there should be a gag order issued
- 53:07Speaker 1: next time so the attorneys cannot be out there yakking
- 53:09Speaker 1: about people?
- 53:11Speaker 17: I can't believe there wasn't a gag order issued to
- 53:13Speaker 17: begin with. I think the big problem with this case
- 53:16Speaker 17: is there wasn't the media attention surrounding this case at
- 53:18Speaker 17: the beginning. And then as the case went on, I
- 53:21Speaker 17: think it's a good chance that the press was informed
- 53:25Speaker 17: on what was going on to make this a story.
- 53:28Speaker 17: But then after the public outcry and the Lindsay Clancy
- 53:30Speaker 17: supporters show up, then it became even more important for
- 53:32Speaker 17: the gag order. And now it's certainly a much more
- 53:34Speaker 17: high-profile case than it was before. So absolutely, you're going
- 53:37Speaker 17: to need a gag order. It wouldn't surprise me if
- 53:39Speaker 17: the jury in this case is sequestered versus the last
- 53:41Speaker 17: one who wasn't. So I think we'll definitely have more
- 53:44Speaker 17: protections in place to protect this trial this time around.
- 53:48Speaker 1: Final one, I know you got to run, get ready
- 53:49Speaker 1: for your show coming up here at 10 p.m.
- 53:51Speaker 2: Tonight. Do you think what Mr.
- 53:54Speaker 1: Reddington has done to this lone juror, and I love
- 53:57Speaker 1: that he came out and stood by his guns and said,
- 53:59Speaker 1: I'm a Christian, I'm a Catholic, I'm sticking by it,
- 54:02Speaker 1: I think this woman did it, and I'm not changing.
- 54:04Speaker 1: Do you think what the attorney did and how he's
- 54:05Speaker 1: treated him is right or wrong, and should he face
- 54:09Speaker 1: some penalties?
- 54:10Speaker 17: The fact that we have this character called the lone
- 54:13Speaker 17: juror is the problem in and of itself. This entire
- 54:15Speaker 17: persona has been attributed to this juror. The fact that
- 54:18Speaker 17: we even know he's a man, a black man, who
- 54:21Speaker 17: he is, that is all a failure of the process.
- 54:23Speaker 17: These jurors have to remain anonymous. I mean, you have
- 54:26Speaker 17: jury tampering laws for a reason, witness intimidation. If you're
- 54:30Speaker 17: a juror, and you know what happened to this man,
- 54:34Speaker 17: and you're being considered for the jury in this next trial,
- 54:37Speaker 17: you're going to think long and hard about whether or
- 54:39Speaker 17: not you want to participate in trial because of what
- 54:42Speaker 17: happened before. The jurors are never supposed to be leaked
- 54:45Speaker 17: to the media. So yes, not only should there be
- 54:47Speaker 17: a gag order, but there should be serious ethical violations
- 54:51Speaker 17: should any juror be disclosed in the future and potentially
- 54:55Speaker 17: we should look into whether or not criminal prosecution is necessary.
- 54:58Speaker 17: What happened to this man? It's just horrendous because it
- 55:02Speaker 17: put his life at risk, and he didn't want to
- 55:04Speaker 17: come out. He was just doing his job, and the
- 55:05Speaker 17: rest of these women who ran in front of the
- 55:07Speaker 17: cameras to brag about it, all of it's wrong.
- 55:09Speaker 2: That's not the way justice is supposed to work. Amen.
