Dems Wage Total War on Kavanaugh

numbers much bigger than you've been told. That and more coming up. This is the bus Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a great American Again The buck Sexton Show begins. Judge Brett Kavanaugh is a man of integrity with impeccable credentials and a proven

judicial philosophy. On the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, he wrote more than three hundred opinions that reflect a strong record of support for limited government, religious liberty, and our Second Amendment. He's a conservative who will interpret the Constitution has written, and his record and career deserves the

respect of every member of the United States Senate. But honestly, the way some Democrats have conducted themselves during this process is a disgrace and a disservice to the Senate and the American people. I am. When Judge Cavanaugh and I put forward to a vote, people would come out of the woodwork from thirty six years ago and thirty years ago, and I never mentioned it. All of a sudd that happens.

In my opinion, it's shortly poltical. Did you guys ever look at each other and say, I'm out, this is enough, this is just isn't worth it. I'm not gonna let false accusations drive us out of this process. And um, you know, we're looking for a fair process where I could be heard and defend the my integrity, my lifelong record, my lifelong record of promoting dignity and equality for women, starting with the women who knew me when I was fourteen years old. I'm not going anywhere. Welcome the Bucks

Action show, my friends. We are in the midst of one of the darkest weeks in our politics, in my memory, one of the ugliest partisan disputes I've ever seen. It is entirely the Democrats fault of their making The only upside from all of this is that we will never be forced to sit and smile or take seriously the notion that the Democrats in the era of Trump are the ones who care about decorum and honesty and truth and fairness. This should send a shutter down your spine.

What is happening now to Kavanaugh could happen to any male you know. I know that liberals have a hard time with this concept. But when evidence is not even presented, when there is no evidence to speak of, when there's no corroboration, no witnesses, no eyewitness testimony of any kind, mine is a highly politically motivated accuser, and that soul accusation with flimsy details and in fact stories that don't

add up or make sense. When that is taken as proof of guilt, we are all living in a quasi to tellarian society where any one of us can be crushed at any time. It is just a question of when the left deems it necessary. They don't have to destroy all of us, folks. They only have to take out some of us and the rest will fall in long The rest won't want to risk their reputations, their careers, their freedom, their families. Kavanaugh, from what I have seen

so far, is a quiet warrior. Kavanaugh is a man who is willing to stand with his shield high. He is not backing down. He understands that he is facing total political war from the Democrats. There is nothing they will not say or do if it can prevent this man from becoming the next Supreme Court justice. Anything goes from their perspective as long as it serves their political purpose. They have no or they have no dignity. This whole process has been turned into not just a circus, but

a mass character assassination. I said to friends who asked me on Friday, and I in folks, I in fact, uh spoke to a member of the Well. I spoke to a congressman last week and he said to me, you know, just as an aside off the record, there's gonna be another accuser. I said, do you know if but he goes no, but if there'll be one, And I said, yeah, I know. I agree. And I've spoken to friends of mine all last week saying, yeah, there's there's gonna that's the move here. They're going to come

out with another accuser. Because Ford, this is this is not something that serious people can believe she was saying she can't make the hearing on time because she's afraid of flying. I have I how much do you want to bet that she flies whenever she feels like flying. Okay, we all know this, but they were desperate. They were just stalling, and their lackeys in the media will go along with anything, any story as long as it serves the purpose provides a temporary buffer between Ford and the

American people finding out the truth. Here you have somebody. The first round of allegations from from Professor Ford involve uh, everyone who's been contacted saying they do not believe that it happened. Other than Ford, everyone denies it, including people denying under oath. Kavanaugh denied it right away under oath fully in its totality. He's not saying there was horseplay that was misunderstood. That would have actually been my first

guess as to what happened here. I didn't think immediately, well, she must be fabricating this he but then we get more facts, and then he comes out and says this is all a lie. And then this other woman comes out and this is bull and I wish I could say the full word because that's what deserves to be said. This is total bull. Oh I didn't know if really happened. You know, I can't really remember. I was drunk, but I spoke to my lawyers for six days and and

and now I think I'm sure that it probably was him. Maybe, but I was drunk, and I don't really know. Saying that he exposed himself to her, exposed himself. That's that's what the allegation is. Now, um and and everyone who's been contacted, including dozens the New York Times, reach out. I mean, it's all hands on deck of your folks,

every liberal publication. You have a multibillion dollar media apparatus that is trying to take down kavan all right now, and this is and this is the best they can do. Here are two things, two concepts, two ideas that we must remember and and not let the left get away with, you know, pretending, aren't there Adoni this one that women do not ever make up allegations of sexual assault. I

know there's a lot of sensitivities around this. I know rape is a terrible crime, and there are lots of women who have been raped who have never received justice. Most women who are sexually assault that never received justice, And the truth is there's really no such thing as full justice because no one can make that transgression go away.

The only healing that's really possible is possible through the individual, and the justice system does what it can, but it can never really make that person who has suffered that assault entirely whole from from what they are, their experience

had been previously in life. And I understand that. But if we're going to talk about highly political and politicized sexual assault allegations, there is a long history of not just overstatement or he said, she said, but complete fabrications to want a Brawley and an utter fabrication, a lie peddled by Al Sharpton, who is still treated with deference and love in respect by the entire Democratic Party, and resulted in the suicide of a blameless individual because of

all the shame and pressure and misery that he was under because of her lie. She's a liar, lied about being raped and smeared with feces. Crystal Gail mangum oh name that probably very few of you know. She accused a good portion of the Duke lacrosse team of a gang rape against her boys, were losing their lives to prison. Most likely, if if it had gone through right, they were gonna be in prison for for decades. The the coach of the Duke lacrosse team was fired. He wasn't there,

he didn't do anything. They just fired him because she was a liar. She fabricated a story about a gang rape wholesale. Why. I don't know, folks. There's lots of reasons we could come up with. We don't know. We're not her. Later on she ended up killing someone because they didn't press false charges, false statement charges against her, which they should always do in cases where it's provably false that a ray rape was committed. There are other stories.

I did one on this show, I believe in the last twelve months, a woman claimed to be uh bound and raped by a police officer. I believe it was in Dallas. It was definitely in Texas. She didn't realize now that every moment of their interaction was on videotape, and he not only didn't rape her, he was entirely professional in the in in every moment of their interaction, including when she was being verbally belligerent and difficult. So why did she make that up? I can't tell you,

but it happens. It happens. And then you have uh this uh woman, I'm actually blanking on her name, but the one who told the complete fabrication about the gang rape at University of Virginia, which all the same people now I see in the media who believe that and who, oh my gosh, rolling Stone gang rape on campus. No one they ran with this, and and only you know what happened. A few conservatives came out and said, I'm sorry,

I don't I don't think this really makes sense. My first reaction when I was told that story, but I remember my family was I don't buy it, and I to this day wish that I had come on radio the next day and said, that's that story is fake. And it's not because I don't think that women get sexually assaulted on campus. It's not because I don't I don't believe that those things happen. Of course, they happen, and they're terrible crimes and they should be punished the

fullest extent of the law. It's that I know sometimes they don't happen, and we are in this frenzy period now of these kangaroo courts under the auspices of Title nine that give no due process to the accused, that are set up specifically so that the accusation is essentially a guilty verdict. And that mentality which the Obama administration, my friends, pushed down onto college campuses and encouraged on college campuses across the country, has now reverbed back to

the very top of the federal government. And you're seeing it with sitting senators in the Judiciary Committee who are saying that they when they say they believe Professor Ford, what they are saying is that they believe that Judge Kavanaugh is an attempted rapist who just lied under oath. And they're saying all that with zero evidence and lots of red flags and reason to doubt the accusation before. I haven't even gotten into the reasons to doubt the

second allegation. How about the timing, Oh, they just happened to have a second accuser who comes out after it's been established that. Oh, that's right, Professor Ford has to show up on Thursday and testifying her oath. That that gets negotiated when they realized they can't stall, they can't play games anymore. Fine, she has to agree to this. Oh, and then they have this New Yorker piece. Ronan Pharaoh's

name is on it. The great savior of the Me Too movement, who truth be Told, has done some very good work on this issue. But he's a Democrat, he's a lib and it was only a matter of time before his work his credibility was used in a weaponized

form for political purposes. That's where we are now. The story that he put out in the New Yorker is is shoddy, to say the least The New York Times because keep in mind, all these papers are running everywhere talking to everybody in Kavanaugh's life, and they are saying things like, yeah, there's a witness to Kavanaugh is exposing himself to this woman twenty some odd years ago. Oh if by witness you mean somebody who said they heard something from somebody else that sounded kind of like this.

They're treating that as a quote witness because they are desperate because they've got nothing. So let me now add to this. I don't believe accuser number one or accuser number two. I think they both are willing to lie. I'm not saying they're completely You know that they've never met Cavina on the fabricarty everything. But I think they're willing to lie about the circumstances of this. Maybe they've convinced themselves that they're telling the truth, So yeah, I

guess they could pass up Polly. But polygraphs aren't used in court for a reason because they think that they are saviors here of the Democratic parties most important political issue, which is the right to abort a baby any time, for all nine months of a pregnancy, for any reason, as many times throughout your life as you want to do, and have the state protect access, have a state provide funding. That is what this is all about, plain and simple.

And women have been radicalized, and yes, I will say that radicalized to be abortion extremists. And in that kind of an environment, if you think that you can save all of your fellow women from the the servitude of having to carry children to full term and bring them into this world, yes, I think it is reasonable to expect that there are people of that mindset who would lie under these circumstances. I think they're both lying And I have taken her riffic keep from people for this one,

and I don't care. It's times some of us stand up and defend the truth. My friends, I know you are with me, I know we are together on this, but it's lonely right now on the truth side. It's rough out there. They are looking to take scalps to destroy people, not just Kavanaugh, anyone around him, anyone who defends him. They're keeping score too. This isn't gonna be over no matter if Kavanaugh is confirmed or not. But

on this it's too important. I don't want to live in a country where the despotic, disgusting left can eliminate anybody they want from public life with the flimsiest, most preposterous of sexual assault allegations. I don't want to live in that country. So now we stand and fight, and we fight on this issue. We'll get into some of the Senate machinations and all that coming up in a moment.

Stay with me. Yeah, Democrats, the signal four months they put on whatever performance the far left special interests demanded, and throw all the mud, all the mud they could manufacture. It's not like they didn't warn us, but even by the far left standards, this shameful, shameful smear campaign has hit a new load. I'll get into the specifics in just a moment, But I want to be perfectly clear

about what has taken place. Senate Democrats and their allies are trying to destroy a man's personal and professional life on the basis of decades old allegations that are unsubstantiated and uncorroborated. That Mr is where we are. This is what the so called resistance has become. A smear campaign, pure and simple, aided and abetted by members of the United States Senate. It is a massive smear campaign. Mitch McConnell, I've got to say, has been pretty strong on this rhetorically.

I think that they should just hold the vote. And this is what I this is where I come down and all this just just have the vote. This is just nonsense. They made it clear to anyone who's being even the least bit objective. Oh, they just happened to get an accuser out right after the first accusers agree to testify, then a second one magically appears. Come on. Oh and after they held this the whole time, so they can wait till the very very end. This is

all about delay. We know it's all political. We're not stupid. The Democrats are just shameless. I mean, I've never seen anything like this. They just act like they're like, you know, we're just really stupid and can't make simple can't come to simple judgments about what's happening. We're just really dumb. That's what democrats are saying to you all the time now. But you know, if you if you think there's a need to present evidence, you support rapists. This is what

passes for argument now. I mean, the journalists that I'm engaging with on the left right now are just a pack of morons. They hate kavan all. They think that they're scoring some big win here against you know, progress, I mean against preppy white male privilege and oh he went to Yale and he's got a side part and all this stuff. They just hate him. They're ruining an innocent man, folks. Cavanaugh, based on everything we have seen him and told so far, isn't just not guilty. He

is innocent. A show of hands, how many of you believe Judge Kavanaugh when he says this didn't happen. How can we believe the word of a woman or something that happened thirty six years ago. We this guy has an impeccable reputation. It wasn't nobody, nobody that has spoken ill will about him. Everyone that speaks about him. This guy is an altar boy, you know, a scout. He's you know, because one woman made an allegation. Sorry I don't buy it, but in the grand scheme of things,

my goodness you there was no intercourse. There was maybe a touch. Can we really thirty six years later, she's still stuff on that had it happened. I mean, we're talking about a fifteen year old girl, which I respect, you know, I'm a woman. I respect. We're talking about a seventeen year old boy in high school with a sponsoril running eye. Tell me what boy hasn't done this

in high school? Please? I would like to know. Not the responses from that focus group of women I believe they are Republican women that CNN got together, and not not the responses that would have been expected, I think by the CNN moderator there. You'll notice that a lot of that is the stuff that that people would say.

Kitchen tables around the country, you know, not not hashtag resistance, you know where female anatomy hats on their heads, kind of kitchen table places, but you know, just just normal Americans would say a lot of that stuff, not all of it necessarily, but a lot of it. It's say, it was a really long time ago is one allegation. This just doesn't really seem to add up. I don't

understand why everyone on the Democrats side as well. Well, the thing is, you gotta be careful that you say this right, because we do know why they're doing it. It's not because they find the allegations so believable, because they're so desperate to believe the allegations. That's that's not

the same thing. That is not the same thing. Uh. And those women, I think made a lot of the points and a lot of the argument that we're always told the women, you know, women have a right to be believed and women don't do this and women don't think that. Well, that was a whole bunch of women who clearly think that Kavanaugh is getting a raw deal here. That was a whole panel of women, and we didn't play all of it for either. It went on. I mean that there was a lot of really sense of

stuff that they said. I mean, I keep seeing the stupidity on on Twitter right now, which most of you folks aren't on set off to worry about. But the stupidity on Twitter is it's at an eleven. I've never seen it as bad as it is right now. You have people all over the place who we're saying Cavano is a rapist, And to that, I say, no, one's no,

no person. Even if you believe all the complete bs allegations that are out there right now about Kavanaugh, there is not a single person yet who has claimed Kavanaugh has raped thumb or in any way actually physically penetrated them against their will. Not one. So how is how is he even or how is it even theoretically possible that based on what we know, he's a rapist? But

people are saying that. That's how interested they are in defaming him, That's how interested they are in destroying his character and ruining his chances to be a Supreme Court justice. They're just lying about him, and they feel good lying about him. They feel like it's something that they are doing for their team. It's thing that makes them. I feel like they're being helpful to the very important cause, and the cause is really they keep saying, to decide

things for women. I I was over at a Capitol hill today. I asked, I gotta ask a couple of questions to Senator Coons. By the way, he's a very small fellow. I gotta ask a couple questions Senator Coons, and you know, he gave me the usual you know, he likes the sound of his own voice, and gave me the usual Democrat nonsense. But there was this whole group of a hundred and fifty Yale Law School students were all together, and then there was this recurring theme.

They're getting up and they're giving these speeches, and they're all clapping for each other for how brave they are, for giving these speeches, basically about how brave they are. And these aren't litt kids, folks. I mean they're all twenty five, twenty six. I mean, these are adults, and you know they're they're standing up there and they keeps saying, you know, because Kavanaugh could be making decisions that affect women's women's rights for decades to come, It's like, what

exactly does that mean that affect women's rights? Just say abortion? Well, why do is women's what women's right is Kavanaugh opposed to other than perhaps we don't even know, but perhaps quote a women's right to choose. In what way is Kavanaugh anti woman other than he doesn't think that it should be and in a policy of the United States government to make it legal in all fifty states and

use taxpayer funds. By the way, that is what it is when planned parenters getting hundreds of millions of dollars from taxpayers and use taxpayer funds to commit abortion on an industrial scale, you know, sixty million, sixty million unborn killed and counting. That's what this is about for women. This is this is where women's rights by the left is really abandoning women's rights and feminism as a general issue because they don't really believe in gender. They don't

believe in cis gender. They don't believe in gender binder, gender binder, that's the mit Romney thing, gender binary society, al female. They believe there's something else. They believe there's this whole spectrum of different genders out there that we need to understand and embrace and have a part of our of our day to day lives. You know, how can they explain it to you? No, but they're sure

it's really important. So I I just note that this this panel of women was speaking about this in a way that I think a lot of just everyday folks would and you could tell the sea in a moderate is horrified. Oh my gosh, you're just you don't. Doesn't the woman have a right to be believed? And on this idea of the right to be believed, I've seen a lot of stupidity today about people say, well, Al

Franken had stepped down. Yeah, Al Franken was a big voice for the me too movement, and then their photos of him groping a woman's breast while she's asleep. Photos being a very important word here. Al Franken did not step down, And I don't know. I thought it was a little honestly, under the circumstance, I thought it was a little well, no, there was additional I'm trying to remember. I think they're people that said he tried to stick

his tongue down their throat. There were that was a few that was a few times that he was very aggressive with that. So it wasn't just the but just the grope photo. I would have been like, all right, I mean, she was wearing a flak vest and I don't think he actually even touched her skin. But you know, it's not okay, but you know that shouldn't have to step down. I mean, I I think by the way, the moment you get into these gray areas, the moment you get these gray areas, he was saying, what are

you okay with rape? No, but the law makes lots of distinctions about whether it's you know, unwanted touching, actual penetration, sexual intercourt. There's all these are these are codified in the law. So can't we also talk about the different severity. They just say sexual assault, like you know, it's a paddle is a paddle them butt when you walk by somebody, as bad as tying somebody down and and forcefully physically raping and penetrating them, And of course not right. I mean,

it's an idiot. But that's the way we're forced to talk about this a lot of the time, like it's all kind of the same. They say, well, the left is gone, you know, why are you defending capital The left is gone after you know, uh, Harvey Weinstein, and the left is gone after you know, Charlie Rose and those guys are predators. Weinstein is accused of rape. No one saying Kavanaugh raped anybody. They're saying he might have attempted rape, which I would know it was also a

very really attempted rape. What's the different stuit attempted rape and like you know, grabbing and holding for a second when you're drunk and you think it's funny and then you realize she doesn't think it's funny, and then you let her go. I'm not saying that's not assault. I'm not saying that's okay, but attempted rape. Did Kavanaugh say that he was going to have sex with her? I mean, you know that, I've never really because he tried to pull her bathing suit. Was she was I've never also

understood this. He was just gonna pull her bathing suit off. I mean the whole as I try, and then another guy who's in the room jumped and knocked them over. The whole story is starting. I read her letter today, men, though the letter that she put out, the whole story strikes me as as not the way that you would expect this kind of situation to go down. You could say it does not ring true to me. A lot of other Democrats senators is that it does ring true

to them. But just for a moment, onto double standards, we're having this whole discussion about Kavanaugh, and it has completely enraged me. I mean, I am as angry about this as I've been about anything in the world of politics for a very long time. And there's a clear double standard that is at work, and it's one that should be made note of because the Left is just

plowing past this and they have no defense. There's no argument Keith Ellison has been credibly accused of domestic abuse, a very serious charge, by no less than two women. When Keith Ellison has asked about this, folks, he's running, he's he had been in Congress, he's running for Attorney General of Minnesota. When he's asked about this, this is what he says in response to those allegations. Play fifteen. Are you confident that no one else will step forward

without any other allegations? Look, you know, in this political environment, you know, I don't know what somebody might cook up, but I can tell you that there is absolutely nobody that I'm aware of whose who has any sort of through who's threatening or suggesting, or who ever ever made a prior accusation. There's nobody I'm aware of who would make an accusation. That's very weird. Nowhere in that statement does he say I am innocent of any of these charges.

I did not do any of this. He says, you know, yeah, I mean something could happen. That's the statement. That is the statement if we're going to evaluate these things for credibility of a guy who knows there's others out there but isn't sure if they're going to come forward, but doesn't want to box himself in case they do. And there's no calls from Democrats to say that Keith Ellison should step down? Should you're not hearing that at all?

On credit to my old colleague and friend See Cup for tackling this on her on her new show on See It And here's what she said about to play four teen. Keith Ellison, Democratic congressman from Minnesota, deputy chair of the d n C running for Attorney general in Minnesota,

has been accused by two women of domestic violence. Not only aren't Democrats insisting that they be believed and that he stepped aside, He easily won his Democratic primary, but at least one of his accusers has said that her own party, the Democratic Party, has smeared and isolated her. How can Democrats explain a very obvious double standard in outrage. They can't, and as he knows that, which is why she asked the question. They can't. But the Me too

movement has been weaponized for partisan purposes. Now as we all knew that it would it was. It was building to a point where you knew eventually it would happen. And I would note that, you know, one thing that gets lost is people like, oh, we've gone after all these left wing people in these media people. That's because they were old and no longer useful. If Hillary Clinton had one useful to the left, If Hillary Clinton had one, I assure you they would not have done the Weinstein

stories they were Ronan faraoud. They would not because it wouldn't have been embraced. Once the truth finally came out, it would have still been suppressed, just like the truth about Bill Clinton when he was in office was suppressed. These are leftists that have gotten caught up by these expose a s. These are left wing media folks. These are left wing uh you know, heads of networks that have been caught up in the Ronan Pharaoh expose a s.

So I think that also bears repeating here um. But we're at the point now where that's all being used for this one moment, the ultimate partisan hit. This was not a wire in the sense of tapping the President's phone or installing a listening device. It would be a recording as if you know, I we sat down and we had coffee and I recorded at Washington, d C is a one party consent, so you know, anyone can

basically record any type of one on one conversation with them. Obviously, taking such a move with the President would have been extraordinary. This is something that the Just Department uses in drug cases or game cases. This is something that Rosenstein brought up multiple times with FBI officials in this period of time.

It wasn't just once, as the Justice Department has put out this person that was in the room saying it was sarcastic what Rosenstein brought it up later in the day, and as we point out in the story, Rosenstein was asked in the meeting whether he was serious about this, and he said that he was. So that contradicts um what the Justice Department happened. And that's why we felt

comfortable and looked forward with the story. You know, with Rosenstein on Thursday, when I get back from all of these meetings that will be meeting at the White House and will be determining, uh, what's going on. We want to have transparency, we want to have openness, and I look forward to meeting with Rod at that time. Oh my, my, folks,

big things going on here. You heard that. I was from Schmidt, the writer who broke the New York Times story about Rosenstein, saying that they're gonna wear a wire and wire up FBI agents who go talk to Trump, that they're going to remove them with them. This is straight This is now straight up you know, deep state legal coup or legalized or legal department coup. Right, this is this is a a form of lawfair mutiny against

the President United States by his own executive branch. You'll notice that we're never told what why, why would Rosenstein have done this? Why would this have been necessary? We always then get some kind of mealy mouth, you know, like he's done, and you know, they never have an answer. What did he say that was so crazy? But that that Kim Jong on his little rocket man? They think that they think that that's so out of line. What

was it that set them off in this way? So that's that's one part of this, but the the bigger news I think, and this was from today after that story broke on Friday, and there's a lot of pushback, and we're gonna be talking more about this in the next hour for sure. But so there was this morning a whole bunch of stories that are getting floated out there saying Rosenstein was had offered to resign to Kelly,

the White House Chief of Staff. But my sources here in d C tell me something very interesting that what happened was that after that story broke on Friday, and that Rosenstein had already said he had you know, he has no part of it, he didn't do it, and all this stuff. After that story broke on Friday, the President requested, who have a meeting with Rosenstein, and Rosenstein immediately to uh, you know, to pre prepare the battlefield

or I guess just prepare the battlefield beforehand. Um must have leaked or somebody in this office leaked that there was gonna that that he was going to offer his resignation. To try to get ahead of it. Rosenstein quit because the White House said they wanted to talk to him, and he assumed he was going to be fired and he wanted to be some kind of a hero, and then he found out later on in the day, Oh you mean they're not actually gonna fire me, Well, then

I'm not going to resign. And then the story just went away. But you see, in this whole process, I believe the White House has exposed that Rosenstein is playing games with us, and has been playing games the whole time, that Rosenstein is in fact a demick, demock crat operative in the role of Deputy Attorney General, that he has not a fair player in this process, and that he is looking he is looking to protect himself so that he gets to be a resistance hero at the end

of this whole thing. And that's what he is looking to do. That's his his goal here. Uh. And And the fact that to our knowledge he's had basically no meaningful, willingness or or ability to reign in the Mueller probe, I think tells you a lot. Because the Mueller probe is there has been a rogue elephant for a long time. He's running around trampling people. And Rosenstein has done nothing that we're aware of, at least to to reigin this in. And and if he has tried, he has certainly failed.

But I think they caught him on this one. I think that he tried to get ahead of it and say that. So Rosensteed figured, Oh, they're they're meeting with me, they're gonna fire me. I'm gonna tell the press that I've already resigned. And then the White House said, why are you resigning? We're not We're not firing you, and he goes, Oh my bad. So we've got more Rose instead talk coming up here in just a minute. There's a lot to dig into here, folks. Stay with me.

Background investigations are very important, folks. Been a lot of talk about investigations and backgrounds in the news. Now. You don't want to hire somebody and find out that you've got a big headache on your hands. You don't want a new employee who's got a long history of lawsuits or maybe even a criminal background that they weren't truthful about. You just want to make sure that you're working with people that can get you the answers about any vetting,

any background investigation work that you need done. That's Global Verification Network. Global Verification is a dual certified veteran owned and operated company with headquarters here in Chicago, but offices throughout the United States. Nothing is ever offshore. They will not send your work to be done overseas, They will not send your data to be held overseas. This is the place you want for all your background investigation work. Go give them a call, or you can check out

their website my GVN dot com. Again, that's m y g v N dot com. And when you speak to CEO Mark Buckman, tell him buck Sexton sent you, and I can tell you this. He has a perfect right to do it legally. He could do it without being guilty of obstruction of justice. Look, you're entitled to have a Deputy Attorney General who's not snooping around the White

House trying to get people to get you removed from office. Yeah, you think that's the DIRSH doing what the DRST does so well these days, which is speaking some sense to the libs. And he's a lib, it's a big lib. But he has some connection to reason and the law and reality. He does not allow himself to be convinced by what he wishes were true about the law and

about these processes. So this story that we talked about on Friday about Rosenstein, Uh saying that there were discussions about the twenty five amendment and also that he would wear a wire. We've we've gotten more information about this now, and you've got some reports that's say that the New that the the and by the way, you know, I said it early on, and then others are saying, oh, it's a trap, it's a trap for Trump, and so yes, I said that early and now I heard that all

weekend from people. I guess it's kind of obvious, but still, well, give myself a little pavment back. It's rough down here in the swamp, right, I got swamp rats coming at me from left and right. So Rosenstein said it, and then we find out that other places, other uh newspapers claimed that it was a joke, that the initial story, which I think broken The Times, was taking it literally, and and to that I would just say, you know, this is where this is where you see some of

the shadiness of the mainstream media laid bear. Uh. They are claiming that there that they can stand by the reporter, but really what they would if if push came to show up, they would say, well, he made the comment, and so our interpretation of it was that he meant it, and even if it's a joke. So that's that's what the New York Times Washington Post have been brought down to now that they would make allegations based upon or

they would they would not not make allegations. Well in this case, they're kind of alleging something, but they would report on something as though it were a true, factual statement when really it was a joke. But they will report jokes literally. Yeah. So you know, if if somebody, if somebody has a going away party thrown for them, like, oh, you guys, I told you not to do this. Man, I could just I I I'm I'm gonna kill you.

You guys should have done this. New York Times reports person surprised by going away party threatens to kill everybody in the room. I mean technically, I guess true, but not really. That seems to be the way the Times does its reporting. Now. Then on another level, you have and and I I stand firmly behind this all right, the twenty fifth Amendment, which keeps getting talked about here. Okay, you keep having all these people that bring up the twenty Amendment. You have had h you have had an

unbelievable number of people who have left this administration. As you could say, it's a little bit a little bit of a weak spot for the administration, a little a little bit a little bit of a weak spot. You know, a lot of people leave it. And yet you cannot get a single prominent named Trump person from the White House who has departed to confirm that there has ever been discussion in any serious way about the twenty fifth Amendment. You know, we're having a lot of discussions right now

about credibility and what can you believe? What should you believe? I do not find it credible. I simply do not find it believable that there could have been all these different times, because it must have been a lot, because we keep hearing a different people where there were discussions of removing the president because he was mentally unfit for office, only then to never have anyone come out and say, yes,

that's right, that happened. You know, my name is such and such, I was in this White House that happened. The only exception of this is Amarossa. And I think you can all guess how credible I find that. Oh, we got more on that, We got more from the dirsh on this one, on the Amendment removing a president from office by you know, vote of the cabinets where the dors had to say play five. The twenty fifth

Amendment obviously is inapplicable here. Twenty fifth Amendment was designed to prevent what happened to Woodrow Wilson, he had a stroke and he couldn't govern, or temporarily what happened to Ronald Reagan. He shot. He had to turn over the vice present, so the vice president. It wasn't intended to remove a president who you disagree with his policies. You think the White House is in disarray. This is what I've been sent all along. They keep saying Trump is crazy,

and I'm like, how is he crazy? Give me evidence of him being crazy? Because he, you know, doesn't support the policies you like. And he says that Jim Acosta is a hack and seeing in his fake news, both of which are true. Statements that to make him crazy. That just makes him normal. Because he likes to eat, you know, cheeseburger is well done. I mean that that may make him wrong, but it doesn't make him crazy.

That he gets his stakes well done. Maybe a crime against humanity, but it doesn't mean he's not a good president. Where is there that's you know? So not only have we never had anyone come out to confirm the twenty five Amendment has been discussed in a meaningful way, We've also never had a single story where the president really sounded crazy, which is what you know, that's what unfit for office means. It doesn't mean I don't like the

way that he's thinking about trade policy. Uh. And this is where you start to wonder if there's maybe a mirror imaging going on. That's what we would call it back in mild but now analyst days or an analysis which is what I was gonna say, which is just makes it sound cooler, But no, it's it's true if you if you mirror images when you think that somebody else is going to act the way that you do.

And I think that some of the very big folks in the bureaucratic establishment are so hateful toward Trump that they just, you know, they have kind of lost it, and so they assume that he he's lost it. You know, that they see in him what they should be seeing in themselves. Oh wait, I didn't. We we've got actually got that. So on the Rosenstein story, it is. It

is New York Times. But on the Rosenstein story, you have Schmidt, who was the the guy who broke this, defending it on Morning Joe of course play eight, and liberals are saying, oh, he was just being sarcastic. Tell me, with all of your reporting, with all of your information, when he talked about wearing a wire and talked about at a vote on the twenty amendment for Donald Trump, was Rod Rosenstein being sarcastic. That's not what the depth

and breadth of our reporting showed. It showed that in the meeting, Rosenstein had been asked whether he was joking. He said he was not, and then raised a new prospect of wiring FBI agents who were going into the Oval office to meet with the president about being the next director. Also, no pushback from the Justice Department on

whether the comment about the twenty amendment was sarcastic. And what sort of gets lost in all of the noise around this story is the simple fact that in May of seventeen, less than four months into Donald Trump's time in office, senior officials at the top of the Justice Department we're talking about the amendment as a way of removing him from office. I just wish someone would confirm it. Rosenstein says no, so I guess he's a liar. If New York Times, there's only two options Rosen scene is

a liar or the New York Times is wrong. I don't know which one to go with there. And oh, also, by the way that you know the president, uh, you know, the president has managed to flush out so many people from the d o J. And I think that we've seen another instance of this year with what's going on with with the leaks, lush and leaks. Look at all this wordplay with the leaks that were going on from d o J today. I've got more on this on this story though, coming to you here in just a moment.

Snippy dot com, folks, that is the new social media platform. It is up and coming for people who do not want moderators and left wing activists, you know, people that are in charge of conversational health, the kinds of platforms that do shadow banning all that stuff. Snippy dot com has none of it. I've got a profile and Snippy I can post there and check in and talk to folks whatever I want and know that there's not gonna be some shadow banning issue. James Woods, one of my

favorite Twitter accounts, got kicked off at Twitter recently. I mean, it's crazy what's going on out there. If you want to make sure that you're building up a network of like minded patriots and friends and just people who want to talk to anything about go to snippy dot com and know that they're not going to kick you off. They're not gonna uh engage in any kind of left wing social engineering. They're just gonna let people have a conversations because your voice should be heard snippy dot com.

This revelation after President Trump was sworn in shows they were trying to undermine the election. There's a bureau credit coup going on at the Department of Justice as an FBI, and somebody needs to look at it. We need Rod Rosenstein under oath before the Judiciary Committee. Articles of impeachment have been filed against Rosenstein

under House rule. Those have now ripened to the point where any one member of Congress can force a vote on Rod Rosenstein's impeachment and if Rosenstein is not in the witness chair this week, Mark Meadows and I are prepared to call for that vote on an impeachment. We need to understand from Rosenstein and from the people in the room, why the Deputy Attorney General the United States felt it was appropriate to even joke about wearing a wire on the president while he is supposed to be

overseeing an investigation. When this president is facing all these threats internally and externally, he does not deserve to have his own deputy attorney general joking about wearing a wire on him. That is so inappropriate. And you know what, if we don't get him in the witness chair this week, we may be taking a vote on his impeachment. Folks, there is a bureaucratic coup. That is true. Sorry, it is not much ado. I'm gonna stop rhyming now, but

there is a bureaucratic coup underway, or there was. I think they're still trying and it's just in slow motion. But that doesn't mean that I think that removing Rosenstein is the right thing. I think that you gotta let Rosenstein stay for now. If you were going to remove him, you wanted to do it at the very beginning to remove him at this point when it's I think so very clear that the Russia investigation is the Russia collusion part of it is running out of steam. By the way,

how's all that in election interfere and stuff coming along? Yeah, they got those indictments against those Russians. Remember what a big deal they made about that. And a conspiracy to defraud the United States, which don't even really know what that means. I said that actually, what was his name, Hugh Hewitt got into it with me a while ago on Twitter about that. When I said that was an overreach, you said, no, it's not. Yeah, it is that conspiracy

to defraud the United States. And unless you're stealing money from the United States government, you're defrauding them by putting propaganda on the internet. That now that that doesn't add up for me. Um, I think it was, and I might have been wrong. Maybe it wasn't here It was just one of those other one of those other people that host a radio show. Uh. So you know, I think that it doesn't make sense strategically to get rid of Rosenstein. Uh that all said, who's really defending their

conduct at this point? That's not a partisan hack. I mean, how how can anyone look at this situation honestly and think to themselves, you know what, there's really there's really nothing going on here. Yeah, so maybe rosenst he made a comment about wearing a wire, but he was kidding. I'll tell you this, my friends. If somebody had made a comment about never mind the presser, yeah, let's say

the president. If when I was at CIA, somebody said they were going to go into an oval office briefing and wear a wire, that wouldn't have been considered funny. I think the person would have been investigated, actually by our own internal security there. I mean, I think I think that would have been considered in such poor taste that it would have been treated almost like somebody that you know, yells bomb on an airplane or something like.

It would not have gone over well. So so I do I am willing to believe that Rod Rosenstein said that as a joke, because it's such a dumb thing for him to say out loud at the Department of Justice. Uh. But I also think that it's possible that he felt so comfortable surrounded by other bureaucrat lawyers at did remember Rosenstein's in Obama pointing this guy was attorney general in Maryland is a lefty folks, is another yet another Democrat.

This is this is where the Trump administration's achilles hell has been exposed, or not as Achilles heal a weak spot. Achilles seal means the whole thing comes down, but a weak spot. This is where you see the problem with the transition team. They didn't have experience, they didn't have the preparation in place they needed, and their decision making about things like should we keep Rod Rosenstein in place

was really poor. The answer to should you keep an Obama appointee Hacks as deputy attorney general is no. When you're coming in as a Trump administration. You know, remember what what Bill Clinton did back in the day, got rid of all these different us you know, just just emptied it out, just emptied out DJ and made sure

that they had loyalist folks. You know, we no longer live in this neutral, nonpartisan, uh fantasy land that we used to when it comes to our government, any position with power is inherently political in our government now, any position with power is inherently political. That doesn't mean that any person who holds that position has to act in a politicized fashion. But nobody in our in our federal government who has real power. I'm not talking about little bureaucrats.

Nobody has real power at the top of these agencies, bureaucracies and UH and committees and all the rest of it is free of political And I was gonna say pollution, that might be too strong. But but but political leanings. So we should just dispense. I mean, all the way through the Supreme Court, the one place, as we've seen from the last couple of weeks or last you know, a month or two, the one place that's supposed to be above politics, the judiciary is perhaps now the most

intensely political place of all. So think about that extending all the way down to the rest of the bureaucracy, at the top level, at the level of a boss. And that's why the leave behind like or the stay behind like Rosenstein and others were the real bro The Comy was a stay behind. The President told me this, what was it, a couple of weeks ago. He should have fired Comy right off the bat. It was a huge mistake to keep coming. But people around him convinced him.

And I understand this, you know, on National security and Justice Department stuff. You can make an argument for some degree of continuity. You can make an argument to you know, to have people and that you want to you know, have people that have that that show that these are non political officers. Well, if you're Trump and you took that step of good faith toward the other side, you've

just gotten You've just gotten crushed because of it. And that's what we see happening with I don't think if fire ros because then they're gonna say, oh, he was they were just getting to the truth and Trump got rid of him and then this story because that that becomes the entire story for them, not that they've been running with this fantasy, this complete joke of Trump collue being with Russia. I haven't said this to you in a little while, my friends, but it's not even a

good plan. And that's why from the beginning I've known it's not true. It's not a good plan. There's nothing that the Trump administration could reasonably have been doing to help Russia in this. It would have exposed them to incredible amounts of risk, and the downs the downside greatly. I always the upside, because it wouldn't even have been effective. What was this collusion supposed to be Russia? Hey, go hack Hillary's emails and then when you get them, we'll

talk about them. Well, Russia was doing that on their own. They're hacking everybody anyway. They're hacking them long before Trump said anything about it. So what's the what is the Trump administration bring this? It's it's not even a good plan. And then you add so that's one layer of how

I know that nothing happened. Then you had another layer of Trump and his guys who I mean, some of these people like Scaramucci and these others have no messaging discipline, have no sense of how to deal with a hostile press without stepping into a bear trap. And they also have So they've had that and the most sophisticated intelligence apparatus on the planet looking into them with essentially, for all intents and purposes, unlimited resources, and they got nothing,

you know, a year and after they got nothing. So given all of that, given that reality, how are we even still having this conversation? Oh, that's right. If they fire Rosenstein, that's the only thing that the kids will be taught in school. If they fire Rosenstein, will just say, Trump, you know, they were getting close to the truth, and then Trump shut down the investigation because he's such a bad guy and he's so dishonest and blah blah blah,

all that stuff. That's what happens here. That's why they shouldn't find Should rosen Seemed be fired for cause? Absolutely have've been fired a long time ago. This is the same guy who allegedly threatened a member of the House Oversight Committee with we're going to investigate you. Remember that. By the way, I completely I completely believe that, just because I mean there's nothing about it that did not ring true. I mean, you got Rosenstein, who's got his

back up. By the way, Brandon, do we think Stein or Stein? You know, how how do we how do we differentiate? You go either way? All right? But I mean, if I'm putting you on the spot, you know, you go Rosenstein or rosen Stein. Fair enough, I go both, I go I go back and forth. And I'm from New York, so I've known a lot of Rosenstein's. I

feel like I usually go Stein. Anyway. You know, he should be fired for cause, folks, but he's he's not going to be I think, uh And and it's best that he not be, because then it will just give an excuse, a kind of escape hatch for all the collusion maniac Democrats out there who are They're running out of room to run with this, this whole lie they've been telling themselves. So I think that's very I think it's very good that they not would be very smart

to not fire Rosenstein. I've got much more coming off for you and just a sec folks day with me. There is a constitutional crisis that doesn't have to be

looked at only through the lens of impeachment. When you have these attacks on the rule of law, when you have a president who spends so much time denigrating the FBI, UH and his own attorney general and so many others who are trying to do the jobs that they have been given, that's really a problem because you know, who does that help, I mean, who is actually benefiting from tearing down our law enforcement, our judicial authorities, and the like.

So it may come to people saying, we now have the evidence, are we now think there are high crimes and misdemeanors. But I think that there are issues that have to be addressed, and there is the need to provide accountability to hold this administration to account. I mean, how much useless blather can one person put into a little mini monologue? Hillary was was reaching the the the upper limit for sure. Hello, she's back. What happened? You

missed her? You missed her? Don't say you didn't miss her. I missed you. That's right. She of no political talent or skill. She who was just ruthless and self interested and devoid of any integrity or honesty. She's not gonna lectuous no notice how she starts. I think what she was talking wasn't that Cold Beart? Was that Cold Bear? She was talking me there? Okay, some point we'll talk later about how nothing is. You know, these comedians are not funny. You know what is Hillary Clinton doing in

the Cold Beart Show? You look, it's like CNN people will get to go on the Cold Bear Show. What are they doing there? They're not? Are they celebrities? Are they journalists? You know? Is Hillary Clinton? What is she exactly? Why is she on the Coldbart Show to say? What? You know? Anyway? Uh? The truth is this, folks, all that stuff she started out saying about a constitutional crisis.

What's the constitutional crisis? They keep saying these things and they don't ever have any connection to any specific meaning. It just sounds good to them, right, What is the constitutional crisis he's talking about, criticize, criticizing the FBI, And first of all, it's criticizing about five people inside the FBI, a few of whom have been fired for misconduct against the sitting president United States. I would note and beyond that,

you know what, what's the what's the constitutional crisis? The president is not allowed to criticize the FBI. That where is that in the constitution. I don't understand that the FBI works for the President's part of the executive branch. So do they work for them or not? I mean, is it a is it a military chain of command crisis? When a general you know, tells a few of his sergeant majors you know, you guys are not doing a good job. Some of her military like bluck, trust me,

that's not how they say it. Say it a lot more salty than that. Yeah, I know. But is that is that a military chain of command crisis? Or is that just you know, the colonel or the captain or whoever telling them, telling the guys down the down the line of command, you know, shape up or ship out. That's not really how they say it, right, shape up her ship up the same idea. Maybe it is how they say probably throwing some more colorful language. Uh, it's

always funny to me. When I was a c I A. You know, at at State side, everybody was very proper in Langley, and the moment you've got anywhere overseas, everyone's language just dropped like three levels in terms of much much, much saltier. But but Hillary is making these these charges, these allegations, and that crowd, that crowd of clapping seals at the Cold Air Show or or you know, they all think it's so great that Hillary saying these things attacks on rule of law? How how is he attacking

rule of law? In fact, a much more honest reading of the facts would be that the quote rule of law or those who rule the law, meaning those who at the top of the d o J and the FBI, are attacking the president. That's what's really been going on. You know, you notice this president actually respects law enforcement. This president actually likes the day to day of what law enforcement does. Doesn't side instinctively with criminals, doesn't take

the position that law enforcement is in the wrong. For eight years we had a president who did take that position. It was always okay, well, maybe this time it's not wrong. But in general, there's about things like it because the cops are racist. You know, this is the stuff you'd hear all the time. That's why it's just so rich to to hear Hillary say to all this president undermining the FBI. I think a lot of FBI guys probably like Trump a lot. Not the not the senior you know,

the top echelon necessarily, but the rank and file. I guarantee you there's plenty of I know this, there's plenty of rank and file the FBI that likes Trump. Not as much rank and file in the intelligence community. On the military side, yeah, so d I A and other places,

all the military and intel commands plenty. But on the civilian agency side, no, they're there a lot of lefties, a lot of Pinko Bernie Sanders voting, you know, Macha Latte drinking types over at c i A. A lot of that, uh, and the rest of the intel community in general. A lot of that stuff going on. Ouh. But they she just says these things that She's a perfect example of the brainlessness of much of the anti Trump opposition. They say things, they get people all excited,

they get people, oh my gosh, it's terrible. But what what do the things they say actually mean? And what are we really supposed to do about what they say? She says there's a constitutional crisis, but doesn't establish what that crisis is. She says that there's assaults on the rule of law. Then she acts like Trump is so mean to law enforcement. Meanwhile, there were there were race

riots in this country, folks. Under the Obama administration, there were race riots, and cops felt like they were not backed up in doing their jobs. Mike Brown, who was yes a thug and was shot trying to do serious bodily harm and or kill a police officer, was turned into some kind of an icon of the left, which is really pathetic. It's really grotesque elevating this person. But the left does this with other cop killers as well,

as we know. I mean, you know Mumiya Abu Jamal, the woman in um Cuba, her name is escaped me right now. But you know, the Left has a long and sordid history of elevating cop killers and democrats, i mean, very powerful senior democrats take it upon themselves to support that rhetoric and support that idea that that cops are systemically racist, that when cops are involved in lethal force situations, they're usually in the wrong. It's usually because they're racially biased.

And you know, it's always their fault, right, It's always the cops fault. That's their basic point of view on any of those issues. And so Hillary wants to act like, Okay, Trump is the problem when it comes to law enforce and he's a bad guy. It It is just completely nuts.

You know. I am hearing some folks say that there's gonna be there's gonna be more revelations soon about what's in that FISA, which I think has the I think has the left a little concerned because they're they're running out of there's there's only so many good faith people. There's only so many good faith people that you can convinced with evidence and arguments. A lot of other people are just never gonna shift their their viewpoint on the stuff,

no matter what. They hate. Trump peas gross, he's ikey, they hate Republicans, we're mean, we're racist, we're bad, and doesn't matter what you show them are. But the people that will listen to evidence. They are increasingly I think they're increasingly finding themselves feeling like this Russia collusion investigation is going nowhere. Also, notice how that tracks with the new cycle. You haven't had any big bombshells about Russia Trump collusion in a long time, and none of the

bombshells are even really bombshells. But now it's all focused on twenty five Amendment and Kavanaugh's the story lines moved to all these other things. Mueller prob was still ongoing, you know, Mueller still putting people in serious criminal jeopardy for just having to even talk to the FBI. And you know, I should have, now that I think about this, allowed this is the thought that just came to me.

It shouldn't really be surprising to any of us that Kavanaugh is being treated so shodily when it comes to process, specifically, because you've had a lot of Democrats and so called legal analysts who in service to the left, have just said things that are stupid. But if you're peutied enough, people start to think it's true, things like oh, there's no such thing as a perjury trap. You don't have to worry about prosecutors going after you. All you have

to do is tell the truth. You know. That's what they were saying about the Mother probe for a long time, just like how now with Capital they're saying, Well, if you're accused, you should want an FBI investigation, you should want federal scrutiny of your life, and and bring in as many investigators as possible, because you know, only guilty people don't want that. This is a perversion of fundamental components of not just our justice system, but our our

societal notion of justice. What comprises a just society? If the allegation, if the allegation of the accusation, he's treated the same as a guilty verde, even without any corroboration or supporting evidence. We are not long from having our our freedom stripped away. Folks. It means the worst people among us will find ways to destroy the best. The worst like Hillary Clinton, for example, I think one of the most significant things he did was get out of

the wretched or On nuclear deal. He campaigned against it in he said it was the worst. You love that he did that fantastic glad to be part of it. But he's absolutely right, it's the worst diplomatic deal in American history. We've put sanctions back on, more sanctions coming

back on in November. Will find other sanctions to put on as well, to pressure the Iranian government to change its behavior, and not just their nuclear weapons program, but their ballistic missile program and their militaristic across the Middle East in Iraq and Syria, Lebanon, Yemen. There are a

real threat and the president's dealing well. So you can bet the President we'll have well to are strong words for the Iranian regime, which is among the worst of violators of you and Security Council resolutions, if not the absolute worst in the world. He'll call on every country to join our pressure campaign in order the thwart Irun's global torrent of destructive activity. Folks, the approach that this administration has to Iran is obviously very different from the

previous administration. That goes without saying, and one thing that you'll note is that you know, Iranian belicosity, at least in the first year and a half or so of the Trump administration, seems to be substantially less than what we can recall from the latter part of the Obama administration. Now, I'm not saying that Iran as a friend, or that

they don't do anything bad. They're doing terrible things all over the place, but less that I see unless I'm missing something that is directly aimed at a provocation or even a humiliation of the United States in some way. The Iranians have not pushed for massive sectarian blood letting in Iraq using Shia militias. Yes, the Iranians are backing Huthis in Yemen, but we're backing the the government, the

recognized government, I should say, in Iran. And you know, I think that you're gonna see this play out even more where there's this belief, Oh, if we continue on this path that Trump has put us on of holding the Iranians accountable, there's gonna be all this really bad stuff that happens. You know, the Iranians are gonna lash out. The Iranians are gonna exact revenge on us. Meanwhile, it looks like Iran's got its fair share of problems. Its

economy is tanking right now. It has way fewer, far fewer, way fewer, far fewer international allies at its side than I think it would have expected at the end of the Obama administration, and it just had this attack and this was pretty this was pretty astonishing. This was an attack, um, that was caught by that was on Irraani Iranian Revolutionary Guards that were in a parade in in Iran, oh

and they were attacked by an Arab separatist group. The Iranians are saying that the perpetrators were backed by Saudi Arabia, the U A E and the us UH. A couple of does. Yeah, twenty five people, this was an afaz Iran We're killed in this attack at a parade ground. I mean, this is this was going right for you know, the kind of center of the of the military power structure in turn, at least in terms of the optics of this, and going after the Iranian Revolutionary Guard during

a parade is pretty bold stuff. Um. It doesn't exactly say who these fighters are, it's not yet clear for what I understand who they are. But Iran has its own in tonal problems, and it has a very weak economy, and you know, they're We've been waiting a long time for the Iranian regime to collapse. We've been waiting a long time for someone to come along and give it its last final push. I'm not saying bet on it.

I'm not saying it's likely, but there is a very real possibility that the Trump administration is the one that sees the Iranian regime to its demise. Uh. The Iran deal, as as National Security Visor Bolton said, was just absolutely terrible. I mean it was it was wrong, not just an execution,

but in conception everything about it. You're gonna let the Iranians have access to markets when they keep all the technology and all the facilities that they have, they just don't run them, and they don't advance even more, at least in the open. Who knows what they're doing in secret, And you expect that after ten years they're just gonna say, yeah, you know what, it was fun flirting with the idea of being in nuclear power, but that we'd like to

go back to not being that. Yeah, we we have no interest in that now that we're much wealthier and a much better isition, much more entrenched in the international community, more advanced ballistic missiles, been able to buy whatever they can buy from the North Koreans. Don't forget, folks, that the North Koreans, you know the problems of North Korean Iran when it comes to proliferation have to be thought of really simultaneously, or not always simultaneously, but they are connected.

There are connections between the two. If you're worried, as we all should be, if we have national security concerns about what the North Korean regime is going to do with all of its uh nuclear technology, it's missile technology. The Iranians are a ready client for that kind of stuff, and they got even with all the sanctions are in place, lots of oil money and lots of ways to try

and make it worth Iran's while. So that's that's another component of this I think is worth Remember we'll see what ends up happening this week with the speech speeches that are coming at the u N I mean, I I always think the u N is I mean much ado about nothing. I find the u N, as I believe most normal Americans do, to be a lot of hot era and and really kind of a waste of everybody's time. But some people seem to think that it

does important things. I'm just not. I'm just not really seeing all that much of what it does that's so important. I just don't really get a lot of important stuff from the u N UM but I want to talk to you about something that is really important, I think, and that is how many illegal aliens are really in this country? That's right? I really think this a second. How many? Okay, I think you're all thrown out a number. You're telling me it's uh oh, let me guess eleven million.

But you know what's really interesting, that number eleven million has been the same number we've been told for about ten years. Meanwhile, on any given day, there's you know, three thousand, you know, caught crossing the border in this sector, in that sector. You know, three thousand here, two thousand there. You started adding up these numbers, you know, a migrant

surge of thirty thousand unaccompanied minors of the border. Actually it's a hundred thousand in company mine is the border, almost all of whom get to stay in the country. You're really telling me there are that many people that leave America forever who are here illegally. They go back to Mexico after they I don't think. So what if I told you that a nonpartisan, at very high level intellectual analysis of the number says that the real number is a lot higher. I'll tell you what it is.

If you stay with me. Eleven million, folks, that is the number if you want to sound like you know what's going on when it comes to illegal immigration, the illegal alien population in this country and all the rest of it. If if you want to sound like somebody who's in touch with all that, you need to know that the number is eleven million. That is what they will tell you. A little problem with that, though, that

doesn't make any sense. I know we're told this, and this is everyone that I know that talks about immigration says this, with a few exceptions. But why would it be eleven million for the last decade or so? Why not eight million? Why not twelve million? The number stays static, and I think there are reasons, by the way, why it stays at that number, but I'll get to that

in a moment. But what is the real number? What if I told you that a bunch of and I say this with all due respect, math super nerds at Yale, I wish I was a math super nerd. I'd be working at a quant hedge fund and calling into this radio show from my brand new Maserati. But what if I told you had a bunch of math super nerds at Yale Management School built a model, right, a computer model, looking at all the different numbers, and and and they

crunch the numbers, really crunch the numbers thoroughly. And they're not political. They're not they're not advocating for any policy. In fact, you can argue that what they're doing will be more helpful to the pro amnesty side. What if this model tells us that, based on all the available real hard data, the number of legal limits in the country is not eleven million, it's more like twenty at a minimum, that would seem really significant to me. How how this isn't being picked up on by more folks

I think is a bit of a surprise. Let me have again, with respect these Yale University math super nerds, explain to you a bit of what they did and

how they did it. When it comes to counting the number of illegal immigrants history, conventional estimates provided by both the Pew Foundation and also the Center for Migration Studies UH suggests that that number is a little over eleven million, and those figures are arrived at via surveys where people are actually question as to whether or not they were born outside of the United States and whether they are citizens. Um, what we have done is something quite different. We have

not administered surveys. Rather, we have collected both operational data such as deportations and visa overstays, and demographic data. We discover that the survey based result that there are loving point three million undocumented Imarrogrance seems to fall far short.

We have a conservative estimate that says the number is at least uh sixteen point seven million, and over one million different scenarios, accounting for all of the variability into various parameters that we need for this model, on average, we're estimating something like twenty two million undocumented immigrants in the United States. Folks, did you hear that? I mean, at least it's at least fifty bigger than what they've

been telling you. And I mean everybody, I mean everyone in media, everyone out there, because remember, there's no way to really count this. They count this via Pew survey. Excuse me, sir, are you illegal? Could you tell me if you really I had a government had a survey here. Rather, we're actually if the governmages they are you illegal? Do you think they're really going to answer that? You think that they have a way of getting that servant in the hands of every illegal I don't think so this

is madness. Okay, this notion that the Pew survey data that somehow comes up with basically the same number every year. It's because they're they're sampling the same populations where they're they're not changing the necessary variables, you know, They're they're not actually looking at what the demographic shifts are. These guys that Yale are saying it's at least sixteen million, and it's more like twenty two million when they run the numbers a million times with their with their analysis.

I think this is really significant, folks. I think this tells us a lot about one how we are operating in the dark when it comes to immigration and illegal immigration specifically because the government wants us to. You'll you'll notice that that they like to play this game of oh, come on, it's just gonna be you know, two or three million undocumented dreamers that we keep in the country, and like, oh, so you mean illegal aliens falling in a certain age range will just get to stay. Yeah, yeah,

but it's only two or three million. Well, but it's also gonna be their parents and their families, so that will be more like five or six allion, and it will also be anybody that didn't sign up for the program, and that's not really five or six minut's gonna be more like seven or eight million. And you know, all of a sudden, you're basically at the ten million they told us that are illegal in the first place, that

are just gonna be able to stay permanently legally. And then you started to ask, well, hold on a second, are we even doing Can we even trust the numbers they give us at the upper at the upper limit. The answer is no. You cannot think about think about what is going on here, folks. We are having debates over immigration, over numbers. How many people should we leave in this country? How big a drain on the economy is illegal immigration, How big a drain on the schools

is illegal immigration? How much crime is caused via illegal immigration? And we're operating in this world where we think that the population is about half the size that it actually is. That's insane. I mean, this was a bit. If the government was a business when it comes to immigration, that would have been would have been shut down. Everybody who have been fired a long time ago. And the fact that there's not a much more aggressive effort to figure

out really who's here and who's not. Now, I'll tell you this, folks. One of the problems is that I think the left likes the idea of the numbers being higher because that means that Republicans who are weak need on immigration are gonna get even weaker. That's right, Republicans that you can't count on to actually keep their promises and keep their word on immigration, they will see this and say, oh gosh, now I'm really you know, now

we're really screwed. Now, I really have to figure out a way to, you know, somehow make this pitched the voter that we're going to control immigration, but in reality we're just we're gonna get voted out of office. I mean, the Republican Party becomes a permanent minority party if you get mass amnesty of elevenly, if you get mass amnesty at twenty two, and this country starts to feel like a very different place politically, I mean, what is that

going to be? Like? The assumption is going to be that a vast majority of illegal aliens are gonna want considerable public assistance, so they're all gonna be going for a Democrats, And that's anohing by the way, that they're now trying to cut back on on the immigration for the trying to cut back on green cards going to people that are on public assistance. And this is considered a terrible and a heartless thing. So okay, two points to make on this. I mean, it's considered terrible and

heartless by demagogues in the Democrat Party. But two points that I really want to make. This one is, okay, uh, it's already the law that you're not supposed to be on public assistance if you are an immigrant to this country. I mean, you're you're not supposed to come here and be able to stay if you're on public assistance. That's one. Two.

Are are we really supposed to just take in the welfare cases of the rest of the world and people say, oh buck refugees and give me your tired, your poor and your huddled masses learning do you know the poem from a Statue of Liberty, which which all these all these journalists think is is a thing that's not just a poem. I mean, this would be like me walking around like, well, hold on, have you seen that that policy inscribed on that that brass statue in Central Park?

You know the cat in the hat. I mean it doesn't mean anything. Okay, the poem has no has no, it's a poem. But but when we're talking about bringing in a certain number of immigrants who are going to need more help, going any more assistance, that's one part

of the conversation. There's another part of the conversation though, that's what happens when we're already bringing in a million people a year, and then another half a thousand, a half a million visa overstays, and then, however many illegals are coming into the country. Beyond that, what is the treasury?

What does the depths that look like when they start being able to legally access any in all public services that they choose to do you mean, do you think the country is a better place for that or not? Do you think the country is in stronger shape if we bring in more more welfare cases? So, you know, we can't even have though, and then this brings me back to my initial point. We can't even have a serious conversation about what to do with the finances of immigration,

illegal immigration. So we know how many people are here illegally, and we don't We simply do not know, And I just wonder when we're allowed to be honest about that and then take action based upon it. Because I'm telling you think about it yourself. You don't even have to crunch the numbers like these math nerds did. I'm just jealous because they're good at math. The numbers at least twenty million folks, at least twenty million illegal aliens in America.

And in the film, I show something that sadly President Obama did by coming to Flint and and um telling people the water was okay, it was so poison and then he pretended to drink from a glass of water and and then said it wasn't a stunt, and it was you cannot talk to people who have suffered so much, especially in this town where their jobs were eliminated thirty

years ago. Then the economy was was ruined. The pipes are poison, And as I showed in the film, Obama sends the Pentagon in to use Flint as target practice, and for ten days and ten nights in a row, fires missiles and bombs into abandoned buildings, troops firing their guns. Nobody was told in advance that they were coming. Everybody thought it was a terrorist incident, and and and it's like the feeling that we're just what, we're nobody, and

and America has forgotten us. We're still drinking out of bottled water. And and in this small little example, you see how sometimes the Democrats really screw it up. Michael Moore's movie Fahrenheit, the Fahrenheit eleven nine Brandon, have you seen it? No? No, Yeah, I wouldn't think so. Michael Moore's new movie is bombing. Uh, it's got I think it's made three million dollars the box office, which for a documentary is not bad because a lot of documentaries

are made for like a hundred grand or less. But for Michael Moore documentary, that's a that's a disaster. I mean, he made I don't even know he made a huge amount of money off fare Knet nine eleven. And I think we get some sense of of what the problem is here. You know, he was you heard that he was actually taking Obama to task for what if if it's true, And I'm not even saying it is true. I didn't. I didn't know about this until Michael Moore

brought it up. It is really really gross that President Obama would have showed up in Flint and said, I drink the water. The water is fine, and it wasn't water from flint, and he knew that that's uh, you know, let me just pretty this way. You know, if you if if I were doing a a radio ad and

I said, hey, you know, I drink this product. It's totally safe, and like and and I'm not drinking that product, or like I'm I'm I'm faking the product that I guess TV have we better as you can see it a TV ad and I've drink something and it's not that product. People would have a problem of that, right, And that's just something very minor. Now you're talking about the safety of women and children and and men. I can't leave on men these days. Men are getting a

rough rapidlately. But you're you're talking about the safety of human beings. And Obama, for a stunt, would say that, you know, he would drink the water from flint when clearly he would not. That strikes me as very problematic. But this is why Michael Moore's movie is probably not doing so well well. There are a few reasons. One is the the space of ha ha ha left wing propaganda that's kind of comedy. Uh, comedy commentary, you know that it's supposed to be kind of funny. But also

commentary is so overdone right now. These people are all making the same jokes. It's it's really astonishing when you turn on you know, Jimmy Kimmel and you turn on Coldbar and you turn on They're making all the same jokes. It's all the same Trump jokes. Ha ha, he's orange ha ha. Milania like said something bad about him. It's all the same stuff. Uh. And so that that space is very full in a way that I think when Fair Knight Not a Lemon came out, it was it

was getting there, but it wasn't quite there. Yes, there was the Daily Show, there's some other things. But now you've got that, plus you know, you've got the established networks doing this stuff, plus all these different digital outlets, and you know Netflix has this show, and you know Samantha b As a show and all these people. It's amazing. You just have to have the right politics. And you can be a very low talent hack and get a comedy show, but you have to have the right politics.

Comedies very it's very difficult to be successful in comedy in less you have the right political persuasion. You'll notice people say, oh, there's no funny conservative comedians. Well that's not true. It's actually a lot of conservative comedians. I know a bunch of conservative comedians. They just don't get big shows. And you'd say, oh, buckets because they're not as funny. No, it's not true. It's just like the

reality of the news world. You know, why do people get bigger jobs if they're part of the left wing less left wing machinery. Well, because there's a lot more opportunity and the people that are making the decisions at NBC. I mean, you know that the the ABC political panel the weekends has some of the dumbest people on TV that I can imagine on a pretty regular basis. But they must be well regarded by the executives at ABC,

who are obviously liberals. So that's all you need. Uh, you know, you don't really have that on the conservative side. I mean, there's only one network that moves the needle that's conservative, and we all know it's Fox, and then that's it. Beyond that, you can be a conservatives getting hate elsewhere, but you're not finding a home with any

real without any real meeting elsewhere. But but back to Michael Moore and and this movie that he's made that I'm not going to see that you're not going to see, I would imagine, well, some of you have probably seen it. I've spoken to friends, they've said a couple of people told me it's just really bad. I mean, it's it's you know, why do you have to watch a dishonest if things are so terrible in this country, why do you have to watch a completely dishonest portrayal of what's

going on? Where all Michael Moore does is misrepresent the argument that he's apparently tackling. You know, this is this was the big gag in the Daily Show. Ha ha ha. Here's conservatives. They're so dumb, you know, and then our side wins. Yeah, you could call it clown nos on, clown nos off, that's what that's what's a good description of it, I think. And that's the game that they

used to play. That way, you never lose, right, you make an argument, you mock people, and then they respond and say, well that's actually not the argument, and that's not even really that funny because you're missed and they go, oh no, no, man, I'm just a comedian. I'm just making jokes. Ha ha ha. You know this is this is the game they play. He kind of reminds me of I had one or two friends, uh growing up who well, it was really one in particular who he would do this thing where he was he was he

was an underminer, but a close up underminer. So when when it was especially with in front of girls, he would say, you know, this is junior high we're talking about. He would say, you know, hey, this is my friend uck, Like, isn't he so cool? Like his feet smell really bad? Ha ha what I'm just joking, man, Like, it's just a joke, Like would would do this? And if you get mad at him, you're like, hey, like, why are you telling the girls that my fans like my feet

are great? And he goes, oh, I'm just joking. I'm just joking. He did this to everybody. This was his routine. He was a very insecure and very troubled fellow. He did not go on to have a particularly successful or happy life, but I remember this as a This was a real pattern with this person, and that's kind of the way that liberals argue in this comedy commentary space. They want to be taken seriously, they want the big interview.

But then that you know that that like Michael Moore, Michael Moore will sit down and he'll act like he's about to, you know, run for Senate, and then when he gets pushed on something and it's not going his way, then almost suddeny steps back and he goes on, come on, man, like we're just you know, we're just kinda more or less so than some of the others. To be fair, more or less so than Trevor Noah and Samantha By and these other they're really just pundits with people writing

jokes for them. So that's that's all that you have there. But the ultimate reason that I think Farekneight Knight, sorry fare Nheight eleven nine is not successful is that he's criticizing Obama. And what Michael Moore doesn't realize perhaps and maybe he would say he doesn't care and he's so principaled and you know he's I mean, the guy's a grotesque fraud in my opinion. But uh, what what he would say is that he's just speaking the truth. But to liberals, you can't. It's not safe. It's not okay

to criticize Obama. You're they're not at the place where they want to hear any criticism of Obama. Obama is perfect to them. Obama is the greatest, and anyone who deviates from that has really stepped outside of what is acceptable for liberals right, what has accepted liberal discourse. And and somehow, I guess Michael Moore maybe underestimated the the blowback from that, or didn't really understand what was going on. But I'm just telling you it was. It was very

apparent to me as good as I heard. Oh he's going after Obama and some of this that's gonna get him, that's going to get him in the in the bad boy box, which is where he's gone, I think now, and some of this stuff and the left does not accept criticism of Obama. I want to talk to you about some good news, because we've got a lot of news that has a little tough. I want to talk

to you about some good news. And the news is that airline seats might be getting bigger, so your butt might be a little come fear in them, and this is through Congress. They might actually do something. Stay with me, I'll give you the details. Congress is generally useless, my friends. Congress is more often than not something that you have to ask the question, are are they just wasting our tax dollars and wasting everyone's time? But it turns out

they may do something. They may do something useful. They may do something that for me at least somewhat earns their paychecks. They may require more legroom on planes, and as well as changing the rules on service animals and involuntary bumping. Here's what here's the story, as folks, Congress is considering ordering the f A to establish minimum airline seats sizes, investigate the size the number of airplane laboratories, and established new standards for allowing service animals to fly

with their owners. That frozals are included in an f A funding plan. We're released by a house in the Senate. Uh, this would be great, folks, This would be really nice because currently, uh, the thirty four or thirty five inches that you are used to getting in between airline seats and coach or economy whatever they call it now is now under thirty inches. So you've lost a solid five inches and you only had thirty five I mean you've

lost a big chunk of your leg room. Uh and and with existing safety rules means seats you know, could get as low as twenty seven inches, which is just crazy. You know. Airline travels the one place where it's somehow never gets a lot better. As I've gotten older, you know, they yeah, they've got the personal device thing and that or the personal screen in the back of the seat. But now we've all got personal devices, so I don't really get the airline a lot of credit for that.

I end up using my laptop anyway. My laptop screen and my control over when I'm watching is way better than what's on the back of that seat. But airlines are it's just brutal, man. And you know, it's it's like always a reminder too. It's like, have I been hitting the gluten free muffins a little hard? Because I try to squeeze my butt into that seat, and I'm like, oh, this is not this is not really going so well.

I start to feel a little bit like it's it's time to get back into the squat rack because otherwise I'm gonna have to be one of these guys who you know, always has to ask can I put the arm rust off between us. And I'm doing that because I want more space. But if there happens to be a lady thing next to you, it's a little bit like, well, hello, can we perhaps share a tiny bottle of really crappy chardonnay. So I don't I don't want to do that, obviously, But so this is where though my my inner I'm

honest about. It's where my inner status comes out. There are a few things banning of smoking in restaurants. I know it should be left up to the establishment, but you know what, I like not having to breathe in other people smoke while I'm eating food. I'm just I know what. It makes me a big government kind of guy with that one, but I'm all about it. Noise restrictions, who I love. We should have much stricter noise restrictions.

I get kept up at night by these, uh these booming bass sounds coming from cars that are on the streets several stories below my window. You know, you what is this with people? Also? Motorcycles? Why are motorcycles so alloud? Okay, I mean fine, if you want to get on a crotch rocket and you know, speed to your your untimely demise. That's on you. But do I have to hear it a quarter of a mile away? Do I have to

hear you know? I just don't understand. That's where I like big government to kick and see this, folks, you got know what your limits are. You know. I don't

like the government reaching into my pocket. I don't like high taxes, but I do like bands on smoking in restaurants, and I would like it if Congress could mandate more leg room on airplanes because they've Really it's the only business model that I know of where instead of you paying to be comfortable, I mean, that's true, it's some in some way, but you really have to frame it

in the opposite direction. You pay for less discomfort. The more money you're willing to pay the airline, the less crap they put you through, The less your back will hurt when your flight is done, the less you will get sweaty and stressed out trying to get through security or or deal with other things. You know, That's that's how the airlines really make their money. It's the only business model I know of. I mean, maybe there's something else where that's the case, where you're paying not to

be satisfied and thrilled with things. You're just paying for a lessening of pain. So if Congress could do this, I think it'd be fantastic. Or maybe I should just make sure that I can fit comfortably into a coach seat, which you know I can. It's a little it's a

little snug on the sides, but I can get in there. Um, we're gonna get into a roll call here in just a moment, team, so be sure to stick around for that, and remember if you want to send me your thoughts via roll Call, face book dot com, slash buck Sex and again, Facebook dot com, slash Buck section much more. Come and stay with me. It's time for roll call Team. Great to be with you here as always, Thank you

so much for hanging out. You know it is, you know, it's a particularly morose stay here in d C. In general. It was rainy and wet and kind of cold, and it's clear the summer's really over now, you know, it's we're longer and that like, oh maybe it's still nice in September, and the weather matches the city's mood. Because this is the ugliest I would assume since Trump was elected that this city has felt I wasn't here then, but it is. It is ugly. Uh, it is ugly

here right now. People that I usually find myself able to engage in a civil back and forth. It's just not worth it, um, As I've been saying all day on the show, it's man, people really want a a federal Well, you know what I've been making, Mike, I've been making like, let let me get to a roll call.

I'm sorry that I got diverted again, but you are all my sanity as always, So thank you so much for joining in and listening to the show, Harry, and if you want to write to me Facebook dot com, slash Buck Sexton Harry Shields high Buck catching up on podcasts and had to laugh at your hesitation about Hokum. I love your excellent vocabulary. Don't forget Hocum's brethren, Hui, Tommy Rot, balderdash, and many others. I love your even rational analysis of the world. Thank you well, Thank you, Harry,

really appreciate you listen in. And you know, my friend, that's no malarkey you're throwing out there. That's no uh, I'm trying to think of hogwash. Did you put that one in there? That's a good hogwash is fun. That's not coca Mami. It's another fun one. Uh, Paul, next up here, he rights Mr Sexton. I've been listening to your podcast for months now and you have been a spot on I just want to tell you thank you

until you're doing a fantastic job. I only wish Fox would give you a show so your reach would expand and open up the minds of those who do not listen to the podcast. Well, Paul, that makes two of us. I do have one question, since watching Steve Bannon's new documentary, Trumpet War, why do you think Sebastian Gorka and Steve

Bannon were let go from the Trump team? I know Bannon was critical of President Trump at his son after getting fired, but he seemed like he was someone who was in his corner and would fight for him prior to his release. Gorka has never wavered in his support. Do you think they were let go so they could do more public appearances and work on behalf of President Trump. Finally, I think it's time for you to join out of the President's Cabinet. D j R FBI thoughts. Oh, Paul,

thank you very much. It's very kind of you, and thanks for listening to the show. As to why Bannon and as to why Bannon left and why Gorka left, I really can't tell you, um meaning I don't know. I would tell you if I knew. I do know that there was a lot of and this is from contacts of mind, there was a lot of pushback inside of national security circles. Specifically when it came to Gorka. There were people that just they they had it out

for Dr Gorka. That that I can tell you. I'm assuming Dr Gorka knows that in some detail, but I would hear hear from people because he was an outsider. I mean, he wasn't someone who came in and had spent you know, decades in the Intel community or decades in uh national security in this country. He's an outside academic and there was definitely pushed back. Now I don't know if that's why he left, but I do know that was a that was a real, a real situation

that he was dealing with. And then as for Bannon, I think that's just you've got to alpha dog personalities with Trump and Bannon, and there can only be one when it comes to Trump, but I don't have any inside inside for you. I have been trying to get Mr Bannon to sit down with me for an interview on TV for a couple of weeks. Now I'm gonna continue trying. Hopefully that will come through and I'll have a chance to ask him some of these questions directly.

But thank you so much. Uh, all right, next up, Adam writes this last week, you've been talking about abortion a lot. What if we took the logic of inconvenience as a justification for murder into other areas? How many people do you think could convince twelve jurors not to sentence them to death for almost any act? Shields high h, Adam, Thank you very much for right again, Abbey. Right, so

why did you block me? Not a fan of free speech? Well, Abby, I definitely didn't block you because I'm reading your note and getting your note on on air right now, so you weren't blocked. So there's that. So so we've established that you have not been blocked. And the only people that get blocked from my page, and I've got a team, so it's not just me that works on the Facebook page are people that post, you know, profane gross bad

stuff which people do all the time. You know, we can't have that, But I mean for opinions people say, oh trust me, people write the emails tend to be meaner than the Facebook posts I find, although today Twitter has been just full of of nastiness. Uh, Jeremy. Rights.

If accusations of sexual assault that are presented with absolutely no evidence and on the contrary, have been refuted by the very witnesses that the accusers named are enough to stop a Supreme Court nomination or any other nomination, where does that leave us as a country? This will peril lies are political system. Harry Reid was warned that Democrats would regret the nuclear option with judicial nominations, and they do,

this will have the same outcome. Liberals are incapable of looking past their own noses, concerned only with the now, they will regret this as well, Jeremy. A big part of contemporary leftism or liberalism is a is the emotional response over the wisdom of of reason and experience. Right, So what what it feels like should be true is treated as true, or what what somebody feels like they should say, They just say, even if it's not supported

by facts and evidence. So there's a big movement right now to convince everybody that there that the reason that there's the nuclear option was invoked is actually Republican's fault, Which is fascinating, isn't it the reason the nuclear option wasn't invoked? They say it's because of Republicans. That's the new that's the new hotness, as the kids say, that's the new story. And it's just historically inaccurate. It's just not true. And people can say whatever they want to say,

but doesn't make it true. So we're up against a lot um jar right, Buck brown Eminem's Wayne's World two. We had to beat them to death with their own shoes. End quote. Jar, You are correct my tweet about brown Eminem's or rather my comment also tweeted about it about brown Eminem's Dr Ford. That is a reference to Wayns World, to the fantastic movie, which you all should check out when you get a chance. Actually, no, it's not fantastic. I take that back. It's kind of mediocred, not so good. Um,

Wayne's World is a great movie. Wayn's World two is B minus maybe a C plus. Reader writes, I am sickened by the vicious smears of Mr Kavanaugh. The stories have basically fallen apart under even the slightest scrutiny. However, I worried the GOP doesn't doesn't have the spine to withstand the onslaught, no matter how ow transparent the Demn's efforts. Oh and Avannati jumping in just adds a whole another layer of sleeves. God help us shields high well, Rita,

it's definitely true about Avanadi adding hilaryis sleeves. That that guy, everything about him strikes me as unethical and gross and slimy. He is perhaps the definite the human definition of unctious, or as some of you have taught me how to say, only aginus. So he's a gross, gross fellow. But the Democrats find him useful, so they embrace him at some level. I also worry, Rita, that the GOP does not have

the spine to withstand this onslaught. I think that you know, Mitch McConnell is giving some inspiring words right now, but I can tell you that if this doesn't work out at the end of the day, Mitch McConnell is going to have plenty of reasons. He's gonna have plenty of ways of telling you, well, it wasn't you know, it wasn't his fault. It's not his fault that you know it didn't get through. So I hope Mitch is right when he says he at least get it to floor vote.

But if that happens, folks, you know, people are saying that you could have a defection or two from the Republican side. I mean, Flake, I think is gonna defect just just out of spite because he's a He's a a prototypical, weak need, cowardly phony politician. That's you know, this is a guy who's said he he stood for things his whole career, but when it comes to personal slights and insults and feeling like he's cut out of the Trump administration everything else, he puts his own ego

ahead of everything else going on in the country. So that is a an important thing to even mind here. We could we could lose even if it gets to the floor. Uh, Max, Right, Buck, I have a proposal for how you can handle this mess. You're probably not gonna like it, but hear me out. We withdraw the Kavanaugh nomination and agree to order a comprehensive investigation on the condition that the Democrats commit to passing a resolution apologizing to Kavanaugh. If nothing is found to substantiate at

the allegations, we not inate Amy Coney Barrett Center. Menendez is credibly accused of using the services of underage prostitutes and bribery. Of course, force Democrats to either sacrifice him or abandon the credible accusation standard of guilt. All this should blunt their momentum in the mid terms, but if they happen to take the Senate, we can still confirm Amy in the lame Duck. When the investigation concludes and Kavanaugh has vindicated, it will strike a blow for the

presumption of innocence. And if RBG kicks the bucket, we can give her seat. Max, You're doing a lot of three D chess there, and I give you credit for making all those chess moves. But I think that the answer here is to stay the course. I think the answer is to is to get Kavanaugh through the The only way to achieve justice here is to make sure the Kavanaugh gets a vote and gets voted into the Supreme Court. Everything else I think is falls far short

of what is needed here. Lane right, Hey, Buck. I love a show I listen on podcasts following day. My wife and I love the show Blue Bloods and Binge watch it frequently. Was wondering if you've watched it and what do you think about it. I think you'd have a unique perspective from Lane in Utah. Well, and I have watched Blue blood I think it's a good show.

I enjoy it. I think it's well done. I you know, I can't really speak too much to the kind of detective or patrolman side of the show because I was really only ever exposed to counter terrorism the MYPD and also the higher level bureaucratic managerial stuff at one police Plaza, so meeting with you know, inspectors and deputy chiefs and

chiefs and all this kind of stuff. So I didn't really deal that much with the rank and file and my m IPD patrol, which is all I know a lot or or detectives, although no, actually that's not true. I dealt with detectives in the kind of terrorism cases, but patrol I really never dealt with, so I can't speak too much to it. I think that it's a I think it's a well made show. I think it's entertaining.

I always kind of laugh because walb Work's brother, Donnie Wahlberg, just reminds me of of Mark Wahlberg, but not like, not as cool kind of, so it's a funny thing. Um. Anyway, that's it. Thank you so much for writing in Team. It is going to be a hell of a week for any of us that like to share our thoughts publicly or that are interested in politics. It's gonna be

a nasty week. Be prepared to take some incoming if you're gonna fight the good fight for Kavanaugh and so you know, especially this week, my friends, Shields High
