This is typical 'street theater' Jim Trusty · DEEP INSIGHT

  Speaker 1: Elections have consequences, That's what we're always told, and absent
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: something disqualifying, a president has probably earned the cabinet of
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: his or her choosing with any reason. But times they
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: are a change.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: In Do you think that's a fair characterization?
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: That is a reckon ball in the Justice Department and
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: is called Todd Blanche the Senator.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I absolutely agree with that statement, and I would say
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: that Todd Blanch was nominated not in spite of his
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: conflicts of interest, but because of them.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: He has turned the Justice Department on equivocally into a
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: shield for the president and a sword against his enemies.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Really, he deserves to be fired.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Todd Blanche is a real lawyer. He worked as a
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: paralegal and went to law school at night. From those
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: humble beginnings, he rose to the Southern District of New
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: York and to prominent law firms, and then he took
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: on a famous client named Donald Trump. You know, the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: left celebrates the lawyers who represent killers and all manner
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: of violent criminals, but heaven forbid, you represent politicians with
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: whom you disagree. John Adams actually represented British soldiers accused
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: of killing Americans, but Todd Lanch once a registered Democrat
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: is paying a price for representing Donald Trump. I watched
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Todd encourt and I have visited with him out of court.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: He is a real lawyer and being ag is a
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: challenging job. So if not Todd Lanch, who who exactly
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: is that you want? If not this man with his
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: credentials joining us, former federal prosecutor Jim Trusty welcome counselor
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Eric Holder said he was Obama's wingman. Loretta Lynch led
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Jim Comey run main Justice Merritt Garland's DOJ conspired with
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: state prosecutors to target Trump. Where is this new found
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: independence from the left coming from?
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, well, hypocrisy primarily.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: And remember you had a Democratic president pick is to
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: be attorney general.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Look, if any of these people.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Had shown a whisper of discontent with those previous relationships
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: he talked about, maybe they'd have some credibility. But this
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: is typical street theater bashing Todd and you know you're
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: talking about his resume. One of the things I liked
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: about him, Trey, When I was kind of hearing about
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: this guy coming on to represent President Trump, my friend
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: was saying, you're gonna like him because he's saw of
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: the earth. He was a guy that was a paralegal
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: with the Southern District of New York long before he
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: became an attorney there, going to night school, you know,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: doing essentially two jobs.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: And I like that.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I like the fact that he's gut kind of a
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: humble beginning, and frankly by being around the weaponization of
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: the Biden administration at President Trump's expense, I like that too.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: I think we need an attorney general who.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Sees, just sees clearly just how deep a state it
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: is that's out there in the FBI and the intelligence
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: community actively thwarting President Trump historically.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: You know, Jim, what I would say to our friends
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: on the eldest shot of the isle is, if not Todd,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: who do you want? I mean, who would they vote for?
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, they would actually find something wrong with Narrow.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: The truth of the matter is they're not voting for
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: whoever the President puts up for ag no matter what.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Atticus Finch would lose on party lines.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: You know, just like you said about Clarence Darrow, there's
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: nobody that's going to pass the litmus test.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: But that's how you know it's insincere.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Ultimately, you know, they know that the attorney general is
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: a political appointed position where he's going to have loyalty
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: not necessarily just to the President as a person, but
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: to the president's policies at DJ and we're at a
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: pivotal time.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: You listen to President Trump the other night, and yeah,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: a lot of the speech was about Chinese interference, but
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: a lot of the speech was about just seditious behavior
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: by people that are in American institutions like the FBI
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: and the intelligence community.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, to me, that is such a wake.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Up call that's so overdue for people to realize there's
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: an arrogance, there's a cultural rot that is involved in
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: some of these institutions. And so far what I've seen
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: is Todd and Cash Fortteler with the FBI and been
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: willing to take that on and expose it and find
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: the burn bags full of documents that show an FBI
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: that was geared up against their own president.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: All right, Jim, you and I I can't speak for you.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: It was the best job that I ever had. I
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: loved being a prosecutor. How do we get back to
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the old days when politics was never discussed at US
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Attorney's Office or can we And then my follow up
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: question would be how much of what we're going through
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: now is policy driven versus personnel, Like, I mean, we've
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: had bad arrests for ever since we've had arrests, we've
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: had bad search warrants. We don't change the policy just
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: because the personnel are abusing what we've given them.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, there's nothing to attack in terms
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: of the president's law enforcement priorities when you talk about
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: going after gangs, eagle aliens, fentanyl, and there's been great
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: successes already now of course, standing up an entire division
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: to go after fraud and finding out the scope of
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: the frauds crazy, so substantively, there's no reason to think
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: there's anything wrong with the policies they're at the Department
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: of Justice. But there is just this this institutional kind
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: of arrogance or rot that we're seeing more and more
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: exposed from law enforcement at the FBI, from DJ And
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: that's a character issue. That's people, that's people that have
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: the arrogance to think they know better than President Trump.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: And I don't know that many or all of them
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: could ever get prosecuted. A lot of this stuff is
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: going back ten years, and you know how the statute
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: of limitations works, and even with an aggressive prosecutor, you know,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: you've got to find things within the law rather than
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: being creative like a Jack Smith. But I think at
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: the end of the day, you know, there's room for
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: history to judge people harshly on moral grounds, and there's
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: a lot of people just crying out for that. You know,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: we're saying they're running their own undercover government or their
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: own shadow government.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Outrageous to hear that in law enforcement circles.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: So again, you need people that are not going to
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: be Chris Ray's or Jim Comey's that are there to
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: kind of cozy up to the New York Times. You're
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: gonna need people that are willing to make some heads
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: roll and expose exactly where all the nooks and crannies
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: of corruption are within that institution.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: The power to arrest and indict should make the person
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: more humble, not more likely to abuse those powers. It
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: should make you humble to know that you can indict,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: arrest your fellow citizens and ruin their reputations. That should
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: not empower you to go do nefarious things. But you
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: and I are in agreement all that, Jim Trusty, thank
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you for your service to our country and for joining
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: us on a Sunday night.
• 6:45
