• 2:56
  Speaker 1: because he just he woke up and he chose victory
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: this weekend. He said, you know what? We need the
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Save America Act. I guess what had happened was the
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: precipitating event for this was our friend Scott Pressler was
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: on the Fox News channel this weekend on Twitter. yesterday,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Sunday morning. And the president sees this and he goes, man,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: that guy's great. He did a great job talking about
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: using the speaking filibuster to get the Save America Act passed.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: This is the way we've got to do it. Here's
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the president of the United States reacting last night to everything.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: He says, let's see here. Great job by hardworking Scott Pressler.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Great job by the hardworking Scott Pressler on Fox and
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Friends talking about using the filibuster to or talking filibuster
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: in order to pass the Save America Act, an 88%
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: issue with all voters. It must be done immediately. It
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: supersedes everything. It must go to the front of the line. I,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: as president, will not sign any other bills until this
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: is passed. And not the watered down version. Go for
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the gold. You must show. voter ID and proof of citizenship.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: No mail-in ballots except for the military or illness or
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: disability and travel. No men in women's sports. No transgender
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: utilization for children. Do not fail. Donald, excuse me, President
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Donald J.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Trump.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: President Donald J.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Trump.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: All right, so there's the president with what has, what
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: started as a voter integrity bill, which is like a
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: no cheating in elections bill. Now it's a no cheating
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: anywhere bill. The bill forbids cheating in both women's sports
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and in elections. The president said, it's a great bill.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Let me see if I can make it even better.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: And that's what he's done here. And no, no mutilizing children. It's,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: it's amazing what he's been able to achieve here. So
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: that's great. He says, we need to pass it now.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: He also posted to Truth Social. It's all people care about.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: He's hearing you pass the Save America Act. He said,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: it's all people care about. Yeah, that's right. That's exactly right.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: It is what we care about. This is a sign
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: that he's paying attention to his base. This is a
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: clear sign that he's seeing all of your comments on
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Truth Social. And this is a very clear sign that
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: he's hearing from all of us that this is what
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: we really want. We want integrity on our elections. We
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: want to be able to believe them. In fact, kind
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: of the whole country is held together by determining that
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: your elections are being credibly conducted. The president knows it matters.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: So how are Democrats responding to this? Well, typically. Chuck
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Schumer threw a mindless fit this weekend. He said that
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the SAVE Act is Jim Crow 2.0. It's the old
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Democrat standby, their favorite talking point. Here's what he said.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: He said the SAVE Act is Jim Crow 2.0. It
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: would disenfranchise tens of millions of people. If Trump is
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: saying he won't sign any bills until the SAVE Act
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: is passed, then so be it. There will be total
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: gridlock in the Senate. Senate Democrats will not pass the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: SAVE Act under any circumstances. Well, the good news is
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: we don't need Chuck Schumer. We don't. This is why
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: we keep saying use the speaking filibuster as the vehicle
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: for doing this. All you need are 51 votes. That's
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: all you need. Now, of course, does that mean we
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: have them? No, not yet. And I'll get to that
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: in a moment. I've got the whip count for you. Actually,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: we now have names for all of the people who
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: are for using the speaking filibuster and the guys who
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: are still ducking the issue. We've got the details on that.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: But first on this Chuck Schumer post, this claim that
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: this is Jim Crow 2.0, which is ridiculous. It would
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: disenfranchise tens of millions of people. He says, let me
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: just set some ground truths for you here. One, the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Save America Act is the single most important piece of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: civil rights legislation this century in the United States. Contrary
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: to Chuck Schumer's claims that it would disenfranchise It wouldn't
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: disenfranchise Americans. It would disenfranchise illegals who don't have the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: franchise under the law of voting in the United States
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: of America. This bill is designed to protect voters from
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: having their votes stolen or watered down by illegal votes.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: This is civil rights legislation. In fact, when it becomes law,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: it will be enforced by the civil rights division of
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the United States Department of Justice. So Chuck Schumer is
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: once again lying. He's claiming that the Save America Act
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: would amount to racial prejudice or something. When of course,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: it's the opposite of that. It would protect American citizens
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: from illegal aliens and the Democrats who enable them from
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: interfering in our elections. That's one. Two, it also protects,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: as I mentioned a moment ago, if President Trump gets
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: his way, women's sports. It doesn't allow men to cheat
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: in women's sports. It protects women from unjust discrimination, from
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: having their rights and honors stolen. So again, this is
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: civil rights legislation that would protect women and it protects kids.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: If we stop the mutilization of children, well, then that's
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: protecting children Chuck Schumer's against that. Chuck Schumer would rather
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: see mutilation of kids. It's pretty sick stuff. But Chuck
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Schumer is sort of an empty vessel. The guy doesn't
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: actually believe in anything. He doesn't believe in anything. Oh,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and by the way, the biggest thing in that list
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: of fact checks here is the Democrats were responsible for
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Jim Crow 1.0, and they're still trying to retcon history
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: to pretend like that wasn't the case. Chuck Schumer was
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: born while Jim Crow 1.0 was ongoing. And now he's
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: claiming it's the Republicans who are responsible for Jim Crow. Uh-huh, thanks, Chuck.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: But as I said, Chuck Schumer doesn't believe in anything.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: In fact, here's Chuck Schumer back in 1996 insisting to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: anybody who would listen to him at the time that
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: voter ID is a great way to stop illegal alien fraud.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Here it comes to us from the Western Lensman account.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Check out this flashback.
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: But let's admit the truth. Everywhere people go, they're asked
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: for a social security card. In fact, one way to
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: prove you're a bona fide person who can have a
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: job is to ask for a driver's license and a
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: social security card. This is an anti-fraud amendment. All over
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: where we go, people say, well, why can't you stop
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: illegal immigrants or others from coming here? And the number
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: one answer we give our constituents is when they come here,
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: they can Get jobs, get benefits against the law because
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: of fraud.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: They can get jobs and benefits and break our laws
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: because of fraud. You know what would stop that? Photo ID. Identification,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: said Chuck Schumer. That was Chuck Schumer back in 1996.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: And now, 30 years later, well, he's on team fraud.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: So Chuck Schumer knew that photo ID was a perfectly
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: legitimate thing back in 1996, but suddenly he's against it.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: And the reason for that is because Democrats are very
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: comfortable with the new world in which they have been
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: able to figure out a way to accrue power, which
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: is Just screw American citizens over. Import new people and
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: then use them as a means to maintain power, either
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: through corrupting congressional seats for the electoral college count or
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: giving amnesty to people or allowing them to vote fraudulently
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: in elections or introducing chaos as a justification for the
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: growth of big government. All of those are reasons that
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Democrats have become very, very comfortable with importing people by
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: the tens of millions and then preventing us from getting
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and restoring order in our country. That's the reality of this.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: So that's Chuck Schumer today. Now, in case you're interested
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: in what the whip count here is, we've got one
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: from Mark Meadows. Let me see if I can do this.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Can you see? Good, good, good. We're a little closer
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: to making this work. Here's Mark Meadows with the official
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: whip count. These are Republican senators who have voiced public
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: support for using the standing filibuster, for using the standing filibuster.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: And this is a massive distinction we're making here. These
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: are people who have straight up said that, yes, we
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: will do it this way. In other words, they're the people,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the only people who actually support the SAVE Act. We've
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: got Jim Banks, Marsha Blackburn, Ted Budd, Katie Britt, Bill Cassidy,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: John Cornyn, Ted Cruz, Joni Ernst, Bill Hagerty, Josh Hawley,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Ron Johnson, Mike Lee, Cynthia Loomis, Roger Marshall, Dave McCormick,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Bernie Moreno, Mark Wayne Mullen, Rand Paul, Jim Risch, Eric Schmidt,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Rick Scott, Tim Sheehy, Dan Sullivan, and Tommy Tuberville. Well,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: that's encouraging. That list is Good and growing. That's important.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: But you've got a lot of senators who have not
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: yet voiced support. And that includes, as Mark Meadows successfully
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: captures here. John Barrasso, I'll get to him in a moment.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Barrasso is a big one because he's the majority whip
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: in the Senate. His job is getting all these Republicans
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: in line and getting them to support legislation that leadership supports.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Barrasso has not yet voiced support for the speaking filibuster.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: More on that in a moment. You've got John Boozman,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Shelley Moore Capito, Susan Collins, Tom Cotton, Kevin Cramer, Mike Crapo,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: John Curtis. Steve Daines, Deb Fisher, Lindsey Graham, Chuck Grassley,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: John Hoeven, Jim Justice, John Kennedy, James Lankford, Mitch McConnell,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Jerry Moran, Lisa Murkowski, Pete Ricketts, Tim Scott, John Thune,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Tham Tillis, Roger Wicker, and Todd Young. All of these
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: guys have not yet signaled support or have actively spoken
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: out against the use of the speaking filibuster. The use
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: of the speaking filibuster. So that's a disaster. And each
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: of these guys, if these are your senators, please get
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: on the phone with their offices and tell them you
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: want them to use the speaking filibuster to pass this. Now,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I do have one more. Let me see. There was
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: an addition to this list. Ashley Moody. Somebody just asked.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Ashley Moody is on the list. Mark Meadows says that
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: she's on the support list. Ashley Moody in Florida. That's good.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I saw one other person ask me, about Barrasso. Oh,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Cover and McGruin says, didn't Barrasso say he backed it
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: over the weekend on Fox? Cover, thank you. Thank you
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: for bringing this up because this is a critical point.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Barrasso played a word game this weekend and I want
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: you to listen to it and see if you can
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: detect it.
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: Ready?
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Here's John Barrasso in the Fox News interview this weekend.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Cut three, listen to the majority whip. Here he goes.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: a talking filibuster to get the SAVE Act to the floor?
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Will you and John Thune do it? That's one way
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: to do it.
• 14:10
  Speaker 7: Members are having meetings right now to say, what's the
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: best way that we can actually get this passed? I
• 14:17
  Speaker 7: met with the president at the White House about 10
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: days ago, the day before the bombing started in Iran,
• 14:24
  Speaker 7: to work on finding the best path forward. We need
• 14:27
  Speaker 7: to get this passed. We need to get it signed
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: into law. I am a full supporter.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: That's one way to do it, said John Barrasso. That's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Washington speak for we're not doing it that way. Look,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: if Barrasso was in on the speaking filibuster, he would
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: just outright say, that's the plan. That's what we're going for.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: This is what I'm telling my colleagues to support. I'm
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the majority whip after all. That's leadership. That's John Thune,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: the majority leader, and then John Barrasso, the majority whip.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: It's their job to get their conference in order. And
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: that's not what's happening here. Barrasso's not doing that. He's
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: trying to kind of settle you down. So yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: that's one of the strategies. We're just trying to figure
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: out a way to get this thing passed. I'm sorry,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: that's not one of the strategies. It is the strategy.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Unless the other strategy that Barrasso has on the table
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: is getting rid of the zombie filibuster, the non-speaking, the
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: silent filibuster, unless that's the other strategy he's talking about,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: He's just trying to make you go away. That's it.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: So I know that that clip was going around the
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: internet this weekend as like, oh, John Barrasso is opening
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: the door, that he's getting closer to supporting the speaking filibuster.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but that's not the way I interpret that clip.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: That clip is a head pat. And I'm happy to
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: have John Barrasso prove me wrong. In fact, I'd welcome
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Senator Barrasso on this program so we could talk about
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: it and hear his rousing endorsement of the speaking filibuster
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: as a means to get this thing through. But when
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: he says that's one of the options on the table,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: that's a mitigation strategy. That's just kind of designed to
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: settle you down and to make you think that he's
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: on your team. He's not yet. He didn't voice support
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: for it. That's the honest, that's the, yes, playing word games,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: says Mbon DC. That's what's happening here, which is why
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Barrasso continues to be on the list of the people
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: who are ducking the question. Mike Lee wants to give
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: this thing a shot. Mike Lee really wants to give
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the talking filibuster a shot. He said, now's the time.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Cut for it. Here's Mike Lee. We were just.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Talking about the talking filibuster.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I do believe they will nuke it.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: But regardless, Kayleigh, we have the majority in the Senate now,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: along with the House majority and with the White House.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: We don't know how long that will continue.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: But we know that there is a chance that a
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: year from now, things will be different.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: So let's give it a shot now.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: And particularly since this regards election security and our ability
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: to win a fair election may well depend on passage
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: of the Save America Act.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Why would we waste any time? Even if there are
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: other legislative.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: Priorities we want to tackle, why not deal with this first,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: knowing that it's going to take some time and knowing
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: how important it is to maintain the president's agenda and
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: the congressional minorities in Republican hands? that congressional majorities need
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: to not turn into minorities. And that's exactly why we've
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: got to do this and pass the Save America Act.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: We have to do it to make sure that elections
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: are safeguarded. If you'd like to guarantee that Republicans end
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: up in the minority, a good way to do that
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: is to leave them vulnerable to fraud. That's what Mike
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Lee just said. Mike Lee's right. Mike Lee's right. All right,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: we've got a lot more To get to here on
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the program, I want to talk, well, we've got a
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: lot of options, a lot of things we could possibly
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: talk about, including, you know, Thumbelina. Thumbelina is like out
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: of control. Who's throwing another bit fit about Stephen Miller
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: this weekend? Stephen Miller, who's been absolutely great. Thumbelina hates him.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I've got more on that in just a moment. Hey,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: but first, I want to ask you a really simple question.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: You ever think about aging and its impact on your body?
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: In fact, does aging force you to think about the
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: impact on your body. Well, there's a way to address this.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: And I want to tell you about C-15 from fatty 15.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: It's amazing. It's the first essential fatty acid to be
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: discovered in more than 90 years. Fatty 15 co-founder, Dr.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Stephanie Van Watson actually discovered the benefits of C-15 while
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: working with the United States Navy. And based on studies,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: we do know that when our cells don't have enough C-15,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: they can age faster. It's true. Fatty 15 can help
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: you repair and protect age-related damage to your cells and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: help activate pathways in the body that repair mechanisms that

  Speaker 1: support your overall wellness. Fatty 15 is science-backed, award-winning, vegan.

• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Use the code Vince. Okay. Tom Bellina is out of
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: control again. The guy's retiring, and boy, it shows. He
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: doesn't like Trump. He doesn't like anybody around him, and
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: he's super happy that Kristi Noem is leaving at the
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security. In fact, he is very happy
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: that Mark Wayne Mullen is going into the job, which
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: I'm a little worried about. It's not exactly a rousing
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: endorsement for Mark Wayne Mullen if Thumbelina thinks you're wonderful.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Here's Thumb Tillis throwing a huge fit about Stephen Miller
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: this weekend. Cut five. Watch this. Do you think Stephen
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Miller should go?
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, of course I do. I think Stephen Miller is
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: one of the, not only does Stephen really want to
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: just paint a picture, he's not worried about substance, he's
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: more worried about form, but I also think that he
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: has an outsized influence over the operations of the cabinet.
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: And I believe we've got qualified cabinet members there that
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: sometimes are doing less than what they want to because
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: of his direction and his outsized influence. He's a big
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: problem in this administration. He has been from the beginning.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: But Nolme is a Senate-confirmed cabinet member. She should have
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: been independent. I believe that Mark Wayne will be independent.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: I believe that Mark Wayne will be driven by data.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: He'll leverage law enforcement resources, expertise, people like Tom Holman
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: to get things right. And if he doesn't, we'd hold
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: him accountable. But I have a lot of confidence in
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: my friend, and I'm looking forward to him getting this
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: department under control so that Republicans can seize an issue
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: that helped us get elected. Strong on the border, strong
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: on deportation, strong on the rule of law.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: This guy's a total dork. He has no idea what
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: he's even talking about. Independent. It's like, it's crazy. Let
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: me just start with Stephen Miller. Stephen Miller is a patriot.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Stephen Miller is an America first energizing force inside of
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: the Trump administration. who's done a great job for the
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: president of the United States all the way from the
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: beginning of his first term in office through now. And
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: there he is. And what does Stephen want? Stephen wants
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: secure borders. Stephen wants illegals to leave. He wants to
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: deport them. And Thambalina wants them to stay. He said, oh,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: it should be quality, not quantity. We should tap the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: brakes on all these deportations. It's too much. He whines.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: It's so crazy. So So that chick is angry about
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Stephen Miller doing an effective job. And he was mad
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: that Kristi Noem was deporting people at scale. And so
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: he's calling on Mark Wayne Mullen to slam the brakes. Now,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: if I'm Mark Wayne Mullen right now, I want to
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: establish as much distance as possible from Thambulina. Like the
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: last thing you want is that lady's support. Because it's just,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: it tells people that you're weak, that you're not dedicated
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: to the mission, that you're not trying to restore the
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: integrity of the country. It's, Crystal clear. And then you
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: hear there, Tham said something about, oh, the DHS is
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: supposed to be independent of the White House. That's constitutionally illiterate.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: The Article 2 of the United States Constitution establishes the
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: executive branch under the authority of the president of the
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: United States. The DHS secretary, whoever it is, works for
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the president. They're not independent. If the president says this
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: is your mission now, that's their mission now. This person
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: who runs DHS is ultimately responsive to the will of
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the voters because they work for the guy that we elected,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: the president of the United States. That's the way this works.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: They don't work for Thumbelina. So there's Thumb and his
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: kind of like desperate little tantrum on the way out
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: the door, attacking Stephen Miller and getting the Constitution completely wrong.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: One more for you. This is and this is where
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: I'm concerned. Tillis says that Mark Wayne Mullen is going
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: to tap the brakes on deportations. Cut six. Watch.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Tell Stephen Miller to stay in his lanes and let
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: him leave the agency. I believe that Mark Wayne recognizes
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: that it's quality over quantity. We want to go after
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: the most dangerous people, the gang members, the drug traffickers,
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: the murderers, the rapists, the things that no one promised
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: that we would go after. And she simply didn't deliver.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: Look, if Mark Wayne Mullen actually shares that sentiment with Tillis,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: he's the wrong guy for the job. He'll be the
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: wrong guy for the job. I expect and I hope
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Mark Wayne Mullen is going to distance himself from that
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: kind of insanity, which is like, oh, we shouldn't deport
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: too many people or, you know, DHS needs to be
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: independent of the White House. It's too much. And that's
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: not a good advocate for him going on national television
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: this weekend. We'll keep our eyes on that particular issue.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: I really want the border mission to succeed. We just
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: have to restore order to the country. All right. More
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: in just a moment. We'll be joined by the great
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Congressman Rick Crawford. We'll get an update from him on
• 24:28

• 27:03
  Speaker 1: We turn now to the congressman, the head of the
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: House Intel Committee, Rick Crawford, who joins us now after
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: what I'm assuming was a very busy weekend, keeping track
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: of what's going on in the Middle East. Congressman, good
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: to have you with us today, sir.
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: Yes, sir. Thank you.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: What is the latest? What should we know about Operation
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Epic Fury that you're learning, sir?
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: Well, I would start by just saying this.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: This is maybe one of the most, if not the most,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: transparent administrations, I think, certainly in my lifetime, as it
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: applies to keeping us informed, we the members of Congress.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: I serve as chairman of the committee and In that position,
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: you're a member of what's called the Gang of Eight.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: And just so people understand what the Gang of Eight is,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: that's the chairman and ranking member of the House Permanent
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: Select Committee on Intelligence, the chairman and ranking member, or
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: what they call the vice chairman in the Senate Select
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Committee on Intelligence, plus the leadership of both the House
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: and the Senate. That is the majority minority leader in
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: the Senate and the speaker and the minority leader in
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: the House.
• 28:06
  Speaker 8: That is the Gang of Eight.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: They've been very, very forthcoming with all that information and
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: did a full briefing to both the House and Senate
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: last week. So we're being kept in the loop, so
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: to speak. And they do a really good job. Quite frankly,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: I think Dan Cain, our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth, our Secretary of War, and Secretary Rubio have
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: done a fantastic job in presenting this information and keeping
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: close touch. with me and my colleagues. So that part
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: of it's been really, really good. You know, I think
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: that what we're seeing now, the precision of the U.S.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: military is just unmatched.
• 28:54
  Speaker 8: It's fantastic to see.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: We get this information, you know, the targeting packages, the
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: damage after action stuff. They're just doing a fantastic job.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, this has gone much better than I think
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: folks may have anticipated. And I think the conditions on
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: the ground are such that I think the Iranian people
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: are going to be in a position to sort of
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: reclaim their country much quicker than what we may have anticipated.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: So the administration says that this is ahead of schedule,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: that this is going faster than anticipated. which sounds like
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: good news. It seems like one of the reasons they
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: are convinced of that is because the Iranians have fewer
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: and fewer munitions to fire each day, that there's been
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: a massive decline in the number of missiles that they've
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: been able to fire off. What's the data that you're
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: looking at that's giving you some optimism here?
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Well, they had a pretty tremendous stockpile of munitions, number one.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Number two, their launch capability was also very good because
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: most of it was mobile and it was hard to
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: find So we went in there and were very successful
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: in identifying these targets, that is the launch sites. They
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: were basically overwhelming their targets with launches. But we've gone
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: in there in a very short span of time and
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: reduced their launch frequency by some estimates as much as 90%,
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: maybe even more than that. So we've greatly degraded their
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: ability to launch at the scale that they were launching initially.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: So we're taking out the archers as opposed to the arrows.
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: That's really good.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Then going after their stockpiles and their production facilities to
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: make sure that they can't backfill and increase their magazine depth.
• 30:39
  Speaker 8: So all those.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Things have been part and parcel of what's taking place.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: And it's been pretty masterfully done under this Secretary of
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: War and this Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and President Trump.
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: They're not playing around.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: We've seen some impact on oil prices. So there's a
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: domestic feel to this. People should know by now that
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: when oil prices go up, you'll see prices at the
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: pump go up rapidly. There's what they call a rocket
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: and feather effect to gas prices. And as those oil
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: prices come down, the gas prices will come down much
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: more slowly. And it was over $ 100. It's been over
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: $ 100 a barrel going into the weekend as a result.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of concern in the Strait of Hormuz
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: that there won't be enough free passage for these oil tankers.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Congressman Crawford, what do you know about this in terms
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: of the impact on oil and when can we see
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: some relief, do you think?
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Well, so basically the Strait of Hormuz, as you probably know,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: and you've probably got a pretty sophisticated audience that already
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: knows that about 20% of the global supply transits the
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Strait of Hormuz.
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: What most people don't know.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Is about 90% of what the Chinese produce, I mean,
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: what the Iranians produce goes to China.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: So it's a choke point, and there's no question about that.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: What happened was early on, the Iranians actually struck one
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: of their own vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. This
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: was a sanctioned vessel, and they were willing to sacrifice
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: that to make a point.
• 32:06
  Speaker 8: And the point was this.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: They wanted to shut down the Strait of Hormuz in
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: a non-military way. So they didn't go out and mine
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: the strait like they had done in the past. This
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: happened in 1988. and President Reagan followed up with some
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: strikes and some escorts and so on to reopen the Strait.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: What they did was an actuary strike. What they did
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: was they struck their own vessel as a signal to
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: the rest of the world that you can't, it's not
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: safe to ship here. And so Lloyd's of London, the
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: primary insurer, says, basically, we're out. We're not going to
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: insure any shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. So that's
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: where we are right now. So the president of the
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: United States comes in and says, no, we're not going
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: to have that. So he's organizing insurance and escorts to
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: reopen the Strait. Now, there'll be a lag in getting
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: that cost per barrel down. In a perfect world, what
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: you'd probably like to see is that price per barrel
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: somewhere between $ 50 and $ 70. You need to make it
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: profitable for the oil companies to actually sell it, but
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: you need to make it affordable. for the consumers to
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: consume it. And so there's an equilibrium that you're trying
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: to strike. When we get up over $ 90 a barrel,
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: we start to get a little panicked here in the
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: United States. We don't like to pay that much at
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: the pump, and it's always going to be manifest at
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: the pump in the short term. I think we're probably
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: going to see this resolved with President Trump's position on
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: making sure that that transit is safe. There haven't been
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: any kinetic strikes as yet, other than the one on
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: that one ship that I mentioned. And by the way,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: that was a sanctioned ship. So it It was an
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: easy sacrifice for them to make so that they could
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: make the point and get that actuary shut down.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: You know, and by the way, this morning, according to AAA,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the national average gas price is up around $ 3. 48 per gallon.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: By way of comparison, when Joe Biden was in office
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: in July of 22, it was $ 5. 07 a gallon. It
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: was a lot higher even than it is right now.
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: And the Strait of Hormuz was open at the time.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, it was.
• 34:12
  Speaker 8: You know, that was his policy that drove that price increase.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: It's worth keeping that context in mind. I know that
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing reports that the Trump administration is a little
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: bit perturbed by Israeli strikes in Tehran on oil depots.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: There are oil depots around Tehran, and this weekend we
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: saw flames coming up from them as a result of
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Israeli airstrikes. and reportedly there's some White House concern about
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: this because they don't want to see the people of
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Tehran in any way affected. They're looking to take out
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: the regime, and they're not trying to target oil infrastructure.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: What do you know about this, Congressman Crawford?
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I've seen the news on those strikes,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: haven't been briefed on it, so everything that I've seen
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: is in the open source.
• 34:55
  Speaker 8: As most people would see. I have some concerns.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, what we don't want to do is create
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: a supply and demand problem that I mean, okay, it's
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: fine to make it a little more difficult for the
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Chinese to acquire Iranian oil.
• 35:10
  Speaker 8: That's okay. I don't necessarily have a problem with that.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: But we also, to the point I think that the
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: president was making, look, we want to make sure that
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: the conditions on the ground are optimal for the Iranian
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: people to operate so that they can reclaim their country.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: And if we are being indiscriminate in our targeting, that
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: could create a problem. And I think I'm not suggesting
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: that the Israelis are being indiscriminate in their targeting, but
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: they may be doing things that don't necessarily mesh with
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: President Trump's view. And so I'm sure they're having conversations
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Congressman Rick Crawford, if you don't mind, can I ask
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: you two other intelligence-related topics, separate from Iran? One of
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: them is that I know 60 Minutes had a big
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: report on Havana syndrome this weekend, which is basically that
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: various members, various Americans, often in the CIA, suffered from
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: some sort of disruption to their minds and their bodies
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: that really hurt them. And they've struggled for years to
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: convince people that they were legitimately attacked by some sort
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: of unknown weapon. 60 Minutes is now convinced that this
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: is Russian technology that may be on the black market,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: small devices that are generating some sort of energy that
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: has impacted American service members at a variety of levels.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: What do you know about it, Congressman, and what should
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: be done about this?
• 36:29
  Speaker 8: Well, I know a lot about it.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: We started an investigation in the House Permanent Select Committee
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: on Intelligence some three years ago, and I was in
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: charge of that investigation. And when I took over as
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: chairman of the committee, we continued that and are continuing
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: that investigation.
• 36:45
  Speaker 8: We put out an interim report in December of 24 and.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: And basically what we were saying, we, excuse me, we
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: challenged the ICA that the Biden administration had produced, the
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: intelligence community assessment, basically saying that nothing to see here.
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: There is something to see here. Number one is the,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: I think, the gross breach of trust from the Biden
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: administration in terms of breaking faith with the workforce. That
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: is not protecting those individuals that were downrange. deployed around
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: the world in various locations. I mean, you've seen some
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: of the history of these incidents documented around the world.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: And I've talked to numerous of these folks that have
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: been targeted, and I've seen what they have become as
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: a result of these incidents. And for the Biden administration
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: to have essentially dismissed them as being crackpots or gold
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: bricks or any number of things that they might want to,
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: you know, attack, blame them for.
• 37:44
  Speaker 8: It's their issue. It wasn't anything that was legitimate. That's false.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: These are legitimate concerns that these individuals had. They had,
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: you know, physiological symptoms presenting. And they, in many cases,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: depending on the severity of the attacks, are in some
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: cases shells of their former selves.
• 38:02
  Speaker 8: And so I take this very, very seriously.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: And so we started this investigation basically to determine essentially
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: the veracity of the claims, who's been hit, what are
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: the nature of these claims. And we uncovered a heck
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: of a lot more. And so now there's the ability,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: is there a way to attribute? And we're still in
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: that discovery mode ourselves. We are, like I said, this
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: is an active investigation in our committee. And we have
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: two really good investigators. We've done transcribed interviews with, I mean,
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: probably 50 people, different members of the IC and other agencies,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: not only CIA, which they were sort of disproportionately targeted
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: because of the nature of their work, but there were
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: also Department of War individuals, Department of State. In some cases,
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: there were some FBI agents. And so it wasn't limited
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: to just the CIA, but that was sort of the
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: disproportionate number.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: And when you say that, aren't CIA agents, especially when
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: they're overseas, isn't the nature of their work supposed to
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: be secret, discreet? I mean, is it possible people became
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: aware of who they were and then started attacking them?
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Is that how this happened?
• 39:17
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: And I mean, multiple things can be true at the
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: same time. So number one, there are declared officers that
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: are there and our host nation knows that they're there
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: as intelligence officers.
• 39:29
  Speaker 8: That's number one.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: Number two, there are individuals that serve in those capacities
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: that are undeclared or maybe under an official cover or whatever.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: And it's possible that an adversary could identify them as
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: being an intelligence officer.
• 39:46
  Speaker 8: And so that's another question I mean, how did that happen?
• 39:49
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: But in many cases, these were either declared officers or
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: in some cases, maybe support officers. Other cases, they might
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: have been State Department that weren't associated with the CIA.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: And in other cases, it might have been Department of War.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: You know, we have defense attache offices in our embassies.
• 40:07
  Speaker 8: Around the world.
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: And then we have also legats, what we call illegal attaches,
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: which are FBI agents that are present in those companies.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: And finally, on this topic, do you believe that it's
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: likely that it was a state actor, that Russia could
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: be responsible for these attacks?
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm not prepared to make attribution definitively here, but I.
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: Don't want to rule out.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Certainly, I would never rule out the possibility of an adversary,
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: possibly a state actor, having the capability of doing this.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: And so those are things that are part of our
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: investigation and not being ruled out, certainly.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: And finally, the other big intelligence question I have is
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: the president indicated recently that he wants everything on extraterrestrial
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: life or whatever might be going on declassified. Do you
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: have any awareness of what the president's talking about? Is
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: there anything that you think we could look forward to here?
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Well, that one is above my pay grade. I haven't
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: seen anything like that. We actually did have a hearing.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: It's probably been a couple of years ago in the
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: Intel Committee where we brought some of this stuff in
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: and looked at it. And nothing that was presented to
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: me rose to that level. But there are other committees
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: of jurisdiction that may have had other information presented to them.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: And I wasn't privy to any of those proceedings, so
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: I couldn't comment on the nature of that. But nothing
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: that I've seen. But then the president also has, I mean,
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: he has higher clearance than I do.
• 41:32
  Speaker 8: So I don't know what he's seen.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: But I will absolutely take direction and do what we
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: can to comply with his wishes.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Well, Congressman Rick Crawford, I'm really appreciative of the time
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: you've given us this morning. Thank you for sharing what
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: you can share and appreciate you. I hope you come
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: back sometime, sir.
• 41:49
  Speaker 8: Yes, sir. Thank you.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: There is the chairman of the House Intel Committee, Congressman
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Rick Crawford of Arkansas, the first congressional district there. Good
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: to have him with us this morning. Isn't that great?
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: That was a good series of disclosures and information. Good
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: to talk to him. And yeah, no, I'm very concerned
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: about these guys who were hit by these energy weapons.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: It's so crazy that And then they suffered from these
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: basically paralyzing effects. In the reporting on this, you have
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: an entire table of people at a restaurant. As a
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: guy walks past them with a backpack on, the device
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: is apparently pretty small. Maybe it can be backpack contained,
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: according to the reporting. And the entire table collapses all
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: of a sudden with like paralyzing headaches and, and traumatic
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: effects to their bodies. Uh, something really big is going
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: on here and, uh, good to talk to Congressman Rick
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: Crawford to see if we can't get to the bottom
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: of this. Uh, too many of these guys have spent
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: way too long trying to convince people of something that
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: was real and then being treated like they were crazy, uh,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: for having been impacted by this. Um, okay, let's see. I, uh,
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: we've got, we've got a lot of other things, uh,
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: to get to here. Um, One thing that happened this
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: weekend that we really need to get to is that
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: in New York City, there was a terror attack outside
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: of Gracie Mansion. That's where the mayor of the city lives.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: That would be Zoran Mamdani now, the communist. And there
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: was a terror attack by two Muslim terrorists who were
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: throwing IEDs this weekend. The New York City Police Department
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: caught a couple of terrorists who were lighting and chucking
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: IEDs outside of Gracie Mansion this weekend during what Fox
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: News reported as dueling demonstrations, dueling demonstrations. There was an
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: initial protest called Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: And then I guess what happened was a couple of
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Muslim terrorists show up and they start throwing IEDs outside
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: of the building at the crowd. And that led to
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: this video. Take a look. Cut seven. The NYPD catching
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: the terrorists who were chucking the IEDs. Watch this. Guys,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: we don't want you coming back. Go, get a circle,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: get a circle.
• 44:14
  Speaker 7: Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:18
  Speaker 8: Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff. Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: Huff, huff, huff, huff.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: So the terrorists here were screaming Allahu Akbar. Bill Malusion
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: had some reporting on this as well. He said, Allahu Akbar,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Allahu Akbar is what they were yelling. Per three federal
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: law enforcement sources, the two suspects arrested by the NYPD
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: for throwing an IED after yelling Allahu Akbar at the
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: protest in New York City are both believed to be U.S. citizens.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Amir Balat and Ibrahim Kayyumi are in custody. The NYPD
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: does confirm that it was a real IED. NBC reported
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: that one of the suspects made a reference to ISIS
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: while speaking to law enforcement, and the FBI is now
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: looking into all of this as potential terrorism. Yeah, no kidding.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: He says, additionally, that he's told by federal law enforcement
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: sources that the New York City IED suspect, Amir Balat's parents,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: are both from Turkey and were naturalized U.S. citizens in 2017,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: while Ibrahim Kuyumi's parents are both from Afghanistan. The mom
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: was naturalized in 2009. The dad was naturalized in 2004.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: I don't think our immigration system's working, ladies and gentlemen,
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: legal or otherwise. I don't think it's working if it's
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: producing terrorists like this. And you have terrorists screaming Allah
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: Akbar in the middle of the street, throwing IEDs. Yeah,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: we've got problems, don't we? We really do. Now, here
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: is the New York City police chief, the police commissioner,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: talking about what exactly went down this weekend. This was
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: in the very early hours as they were gathering information.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Take a listen. Cut eight.
• 46:13
  Speaker 5: At approximately 1238 p.m., a counter protester identified as Amir Balat,
• 46:20
  Speaker 5: an 18 year old man, lit and threw an ignited
• 46:24
  Speaker 5: device toward the protest area, landing in the crosswalk. of
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: East 87th Street and East End Avenue. Witnesses reported seeing
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: flames and smoke as it traveled through the air before
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: it struck a barrier and extinguished itself a few feet
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: from police officers. Mr. Balat then ran southbound on East
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: End Avenue toward 86th Street and gets a second device
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: from a man tentatively ID'd as Ibrahim Nick, 19 years old. Mr.
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: Balat lights the device and starts running with it. He
• 47:02
  Speaker 5: then drops the device on the west side of East
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: End Avenue between East 86th and East 87th Streets. Officers
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: immediately secured the area. and they took both men into custody.
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: This was all captured on NYPD Argus camera. The bomb
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: squad responded and examined the devices. Based on preliminary examination
• 47:26
  Speaker 5: and x-ray imaging, the devices, which were a bit smaller
• 47:30
  Speaker 5: than a football, appear to be a jar wrapped in
• 47:33
  Speaker 5: black tape, importantly, with nuts, bolts, and screws, along with
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: a hobby fuse that could be lit.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: At this time, we do not know whether they told
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: us later on. I saw Paul Morrow, who's great. He's
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: over at Fox. He said that his sources are telling
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: him that there was an explosive component as well, so
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: that that fuse could have led to an explosion that
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: would have maimed and killed people if they were in
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: the vicinity of this bomb. They really were setting out
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: to murder these these terrorists were. just absolutely disgraceful. Also disgraceful,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: the way Zoran Mamdani, the mayor of New York, reacted
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: to all of this. Listen, look at this. This is
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: Zoran's ex-post about what went down this weekend. He said, yesterday,
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside of Gracie
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. What is white supremacist?
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: What does white supremacy have to do with an Islamic
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: terror attack? He said, what followed was even more disturbing.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: Violence at a protest is never acceptable. The attempt to
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal,
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: And then he thanks the NYPD. I'm sorry.
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: What?
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: Why is this post about white supremacy? What does that
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: have to do with Islamic terrorism? This is demented from
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: the mayor of New York City. Has New York City
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: ever experienced Islamic terrorism?
• 49:18
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: Is the answer. The most devastating Islamic terrorism in our
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: nation's history. Now the mayor of New York is making
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: excuses for it, covering it up, diminishing it. And he
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: wasn't the only one. He had like entire news outlets
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: dedicated to misleading about what the hell just happened in
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: their city. NBC New York this weekend, multiple arrests made
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: after suspicious devices were found outside of Gracie Mansion, home
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: of Mayor Zoran Mamdani, during anti-Islam rally and counter protest.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: You see what NBC did? You see how demented this
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: framing is? They made it seem like the suspicious devices
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: were the result of an anti-Islam rally. It's the people
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: who were against the Muslims who were throwing bombs around.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: That's the way NBC reports it. This is a malicious
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: recitation of the known details. That's the NBC coverage. So
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: that's NBC New York. These are the local outlets in
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: New York. If you're a New Yorker, how would you
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: even know what's going on? How about this one? Here's
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: the New York Times. This is the paper of record
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: for the city. It's supposed to be. Look at this,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: New York Times headline, smoking jars of metal and fuses
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: thrown at protest near mayor's house. Six people were arrested
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: after anti-Islamic protesters led by the right-wing activist Jake Lang
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: clashed with counter-protesters near Gracie Mansion. You see clashed with
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: counter-protesters is kind of the smallest little clause of this sentence.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: It was the anti-Islamic protesters led by the right-wing activists.
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: They threw, what is this, smoking jars of metal and fuses?
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: How about bombs? What? How much more information do you
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: need to be like, yeah, that's a bomb. That's an IED.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: Hans Manke sharing this on X. Thank you to Hans
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: Manke for putting that up. He said, we've seen it
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: all now. What any honest person would call an IED.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: The New York Times calls smoking jars of metal and fuses.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: It's like, it's crazy. It's just crazy. And Ari Fleischer
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: put this well this weekend. He said, you know, what
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: we're witnessing right now is a species of, an ongoing
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: species of an expression of left-wing violence. You know, take
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: this in, don't underestimate what's going on in our country.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: And IED was just used in New York City against
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: people who protested against Mamdani. against the people who are
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: protesting against Mamdani, an IED on the streets in America.
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: The left wing has a violence problem, Ari writes. It's
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: time for everybody to recognize it, confront it, arrest those
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: who engage in it, deport them and or put them
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: in prison for a very long time. Knowing how New
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: York City works, it won't be long until the two
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: leftists who did this will be back on the street.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: God forbid. But Ari's right. The left's got a problem.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: The left's got a big problem. They have an assassination
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: culture that dominates the American left. And they have, for
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: far too long, been getting away with it with little consequence.
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: You've got to impose consequences. You want to put a
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: stop to this? Impose serious and lasting consequences on anybody
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: who would even contemplate doing something this horrific. It's just
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: terrible stuff. An IED attack in New York City by
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: a couple of Muslim terrorists and the media is figuring
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: out ways to blame... white people and the right. That's
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: the typical dog and pony show. I've got more details
• 53:06
