The Deep State's Destroy Trump Campaign

a more coming up from the buck Sexton Show. This this is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. No mistake, American, You're a great American. Again the buck Sexton Show begins. No welcome, Judy Bucks. Actually show everybody. I am back here in the swamp after a much needed day off, and boy, we've got a lot of news to cover today. I mentioned Venezuela at the top. There.

We're also going to get into the latest Deep State efforts to destroy this president, or at least wound this presidency enough that some very third tier Democrat candidate can just sort of waltz in and become President of United States. I know it's an appalling thought, but it's one we have to take seriously the New York State Attorney General showing us how the Democrats play the game dirty, very

very dirty. Also the Trump administration trying to deal with asylum to change it up so it's no longer this

massive loophole. Sure there's going to be some Ninth Circuit Court opinion that's gonna mean the president can't do anything, and we'll get into some of that also or on in the show, our friend Tyler Merritt's going to join about a Navy seal that Tyler says, and he's a former special operations guy himself is getting completely unfair treatment from the government from the media so far on his case. And we'll also have an expert on Venezuela joining to

talk about what's going on there. But but first I got to talk to you about this New York State Attorney General, a position formerly held by the one and only Eric Schneiderman, who, just by way of review, for those of you who are keeping score about Democrat dirt bags out there, Schneiderman was a hero Democrats because he was going to use the prosecutorial power, which remember, folks, short of the military turning on this citizens of a country.

The prosecutor's office is the single most destructive, most frightening, most fearsome weapon of political vengeance and oppression that any government's going to have. Right, the criminal justice system becoming politicized is a massive leap toward tyranny, and Democrats are doing it more with every passing day. They just don't care how it looks. They don't care what it does to the system. They will take down Trump through lawfare

any way that they can. But Schneiderman was a hero to the Democrat left and in fact specifically a kind of me too icon for a while, meaning that he was very supportive of all the outing of people for their sexual misconduct and the consequences they were suffering. And oh a, then it turns out that he was an abusive racist with the women in his own life. Oh this is such a surprise too. Well, nobody who's paying attention. But Schneiderman stepped down. And now we've got a new

attorney general in New York. The just elected Leticia James, who will be taking office next month, and she has made it quite clear that the state of New York is going to war with Trump. That's what this is the state of New York is going to do everything that it can to drudge, to dredge up, drudge up, sorry, Drudge report on the Mind, to dredge up damaging material about the president, to threaten and maybe even imprison some of his associates, maybe even go after some members of

his own family, all because why Democrats hate the president. Now, let's start with some very basic principles. It is not supposed to be the case that you open an investigation of an individual. You're supposed to open investigations of crimes. Democrats in the era of Trump have largely abandoned this time worn and honored and very important principle. They just want to get Trump. This is a get Trump at

all costs operation. That's what they're running here, folks. They want to find a way to destroy this president, and they will use and abuse, which is what we're seeing the law, in every way that they possibly can. Here's what NBC News was reporting on today with Attorney General elect Leticia James coming into office. Quote, she campaigned on passing a bill to change New York's double jeopardy laws

with an eye on possible pardons. Coming out of the White House, Jane told NBC News she wants to be able to pursue state charges against anyone the president or to pardon over federal charges or convictions and whose alleged crimes took place in the state. Under current New York law, she might not be able to do that. Here's an attorney general. Let's let's really just unpack this room. This is important, this is what this is what your president

is up against. Right now, here's an you might say, back, he's the president, and you know he's got the whole federal government. Oh no, no, no, no, The federal government was turned against this president. His own executive branch employees Comey and Struck and Clapper and well Brennan had left. The people that were supposed to be the professionals in the federal bureaucracy he turned against him. Sally Yates, his acting attorney general, at one point an anti Trump lunatic.

And now we see that there are state prosecutors, state bureaucrats who also view it as their mandate to leverage their powers for explicitly partisan purposes, which is what they says. I mean, here you have a state attorney general who is saying that, or who ran rather on a platform

of let's change the law in New York State. Let's have the let's have the legislature change the law in New York State specifically so that when I become your Attorney general for the State of New York, I can go after the bad Orange Man aka the President United States Donald Trump. She wants changes in law, which I would remind you, I think the double jeopardy law new York is a good law. I think that it is. And this is the courts are not really that set

on this yet. I think it's total crap that you can get a federal charge and then a state charged for the exact same conduct. I believe that is double jeopardy. I disagree with people to think that is not. And New York has a law that says, look, in New York State, if you if you suffered the you know, if you go through a federal trial for something, or if you have federal charges against you, you know you don't get to do this, then well you beat that, but now we're going to hit you with the state

charge for the exact same conduct. I think that's more or less what New York has in place here. You have Leticia James saying we're gonna get rid of that. Why not, because she thinks the law is a bad thing. She wants a change in law so that she can go after she can go after the President of the United States and his family because he's from New York.

So this is why this really matters. Right, if the state of Montana did this, no offense, Montana wouldn't really matter because that they're not going to be There's nothing in their jurisdiction but Trump Tower and Trump's businesses, and this is all in New York. So what you have is the federal law enforcement bureaucracy coup against Trump failed. So now you're going to have a state level in

New York, in his home state. Now they're going to try the same thing or something similar to arrest the president's associates to pressure them to turn on him to I've been telling everybody who will listen at least that Michael Cohen. The fact that Michael Cohen did not have the goods on Trump to really to really put Trump in an indefensible situation just goes to show him. And that was the president's private lawyer for and he was begging an he'd say anything to try to take the

president down. They don't They don't have anything. If they had it, we would know they don't have anything. But you have Leticia James saying that quote, I think within the first one hundred days this bill will be passed. This now that she's taking the attorney general position, she said it is a priority because I have concerns with respect to the possibilit that this administration might pardon some individuals who might face some criminal charges, but I do

not want them to be immune from state charges. This is a partisan. This is a Democrat saying I want a change in the law in my state so that I can punish theoretical, not even alleged crimes that this person may or may not have committed and people around him may or may not have committed. This is appalling. I mean, this is what we are up against, my friends,

So think about this for a moment. This would be like Congress passing some law that says, you know, we want to pass the you know Buck sexcent camp Be on Radio Act because he's just too effective at crushing libs. That's not okay, Oh, to target me in that way. Yes, we crushed libs here. But that's darn it, that's what we're supposed to do. I mean, dare I say that what Leticia James is calling for here is deeply on American I mean changes and laws intended to and to

keep in line. That's gonna mean there are other people now that might face double jeopardy in the state of New York just because she wants to get Trump. She's been pushing for this, and it's because this is now what the Democrats do. You know, if Trump was so bad at his job, if his ideas were so unpopular, if he was such a terrible president, you'd think that they would just they would find it sufficient to make the case as to why Trump is not a good president.

But instead what you have is all this this desperate conduct, this hyperbolic anti Trump derangement syndrome mania out there where everything Trump does is literally worse than Hitler. And what does that tell you if they had a case to make about why he's doing such a bad job, or why not just make that case? It always has to be no, No, we're gonna we need a special counsel And now we need an attorney general in this date

of New York to go after him. And you know, and now we need spinoff investigations from the Special Council to go after him. And and now we've got Congress calling for all these hearings, and you know, hearing after hearing after hearing, we're gonna have Jerry Nadley be like, yeah, you know, I think that you're a bad guy, and I just want to have you. I want an opportunity to grandstand. And you know, Jerry, we know what you're gonna say, buddy. It's nothing new and nothing worth anybody's time.

You know, obstruction and very serious obstruction casey we have to talk about. And no, no, we don't have a very serious obstruction case to talk about. They won't quit. Though one deep state coup failed, now another one is in the making, going into a reelection campaign for the president that they could just focus on winning that, but they have to cheat. They have to cheat, you know, that's what we say, the word coup. That's important. But

also they cheat it. There was an effort here to destroy the president when he was running and cheating that whole process right by using by leveraging what's supposed to be a neutral party, The FBI the intelligence community, and people were doling out information to the press, all damaging to Trump, none of it damaging to his opponent. And

they did this. They knew what they were doing, they knew that they were cheating, and then when they lost, they tried to cheat once again by stealing victory from the guy who really want it. And if you think that I'm being a little bit and you know that

I'm not. But if you think that I'm being a little bit extreme in my deep state Part two, here, keep in mind that Latitia James, Attorney General of New York State, is bringing together PROSECUTORILA heavy hitters like quote former US Attorney General Lauretta Lynch as part of her transition to help her identify important hires for her office, with an eye on bringing in x furts for Trump

related investigations end quote from NBC. Here, that's right, my friends, This attorney general for the state of New York is bringing in Obama's attorney general, the woman who met with Bill Clinton on the tarmac. Remember when Hillary was an investigation who bailed Hillary out of criminal jeopardy that she more than earned because she broke the law and we all know it. Hillary broke the law, no question about it.

James is bringing on Luretta Lynch to help her find the people who, guess what are the most rapidly anti Trump former DOJ employees, to pull them into her office and try to leverage theirs their former position and access in the federal government to bring cases against Trump now in New York State. And if you think that New York State cases aren't seriously, you know, look at what Look at what they've done with no collusion. You know there was no collusion. But we had a two year

special counsel looking into this fantasy, this fable. You don't think that they'll do something similar in New York State. These people have no ethics, there's no good faith, there's no decency in their approach. They are on a search and destroy mission. They think that they are either saving the country from Trump or saving the country for themselves. I don't know, but they fight very, very dirty, and we need to be prepared for it. And a whole

lot more show coming up, my friends. Oh also immigration asylum. Man, We've got so much to cover, So stay with me. If we had any doubt before about this Presiden's fitness for office, if we had any doubt before about this president's fitness for office, there is no doubt remaining. He is unfit for the presidency. But this was our big gun. Now it just looks like you're stalking him the Muller Report. Bill Maher says, there was their big gun. He's correct.

That was the liberal mentality here. That is what they believed. They thought that Mueller, that Saint Muller was going to deliver them from all of Trump's sins, that Saint Muller was going to come along. Although I guess a lot of lips don't really believe in saints or probably God for that matter, but they believe that this was their deliverance.

And yet it did not happen. And there's very little, if any sense among the Democrats that they should take a step back and maybe reevaluate what it is that they've been telling the American people on this for over two years now. No sense at all that there should be any deference to perhaps the executive branch going forward with its ability to operate unfettered of bad faith investigation. Of course, not right. They're not gonna do any of that.

They're gonna try to just ambush sandbag, you know, just mess over Trump as much as they possibly can with these investigations. And and what Muller did was very intentional, you know. I asked a very a very senior government lawyer recently, I said, have you ever seen before a prosecutor who has remember playing the role prosecutor and says, I'm not just going to decline charges. I'm gonna say that somebody else has to make this call, even though it's my call. And think I's like, no, I've never

seen that before. And somebody else who was in the room said, well, what about what Comy did? I said, Oh no, no, no, no no, no, no. Comey was the head of the FBI. He was not a prosecutor. He was an investigator in that role. He's not the prosecutor. He's not he's not the attorney general. That's not his call. So it wasn't Coomy's call to make for Hillary Clinton's emails. But what Homie did was for what you could say was a close call, although I don't think it was close.

Hillary broke the law, she should have paid the price, But what they were saying was a judgment call. Comey said, no reasonable prosecutor would bring charges. Then fast forward to what happened with Muller on what is a judgment call should there be an obstructor Again, I don't think this is close either, but that's of course my opinion, but it is there is some judgment call here instead of Muller doing what Comy didn't say. You know, they could go either way, but it's going this way and that's

the way it should go. He left it open ended, why so that we could hear from you know, Nadler and Schiff and all these crazy anti Trump jerks up on Capitol Hill about how we need to talk about obstruction. He's back with you now, because when it comes to the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. The twenty twenty budget would strengthen the security of our nation through enhanced border security, immigration enforcement, cybersecurity, transportation security, counter terrorism,

and resilience to disasters. With regard to order security. As you're all aware, we're in the midst of an ongoing

security and humanitarian crisis at our southwest border. The Department, at the request of our frontline officers and agents, has worked with this committee to make clear that we need additional resources to respond to the crisis in March alone, CBP apprehended and encountered over one hundred and three thousand migrants crossing without legal status, the most in one month for over a decade, one hundred and three thousand, my friends,

over one hundred thousand. Just as I have been promising you all month, went down to Texas see for myself what's going going on, and sure enough, it is a mess at our southern border. Democrats are fine with it, They encourage it, they like it. They prefer this situation of lawlessness, of the exploitation both of people that are

trying to evade our immigration laws. But I understand it's to get a better life for themselves and also enriching the cartels along the way and taking advantage of the generosity of the American people and our generous spirit in our desire to be a country that is a beacon of hope and light and liberty for the world. But it's not going to stay that way. If we can't say who comes and goes. We won't have a country if we don't have sovereignty, and we are losing sovereignty

with every passing day. Now the situation is going to be bad this month as well. Will it be over one hundred thousand. We will have to see. Illegal crossings are on pace to hit over a million for this year. And so the President is doing what he can to try to fix this situation, a situation that I would point out if if he were a Democrat, and if it had been a Republican before him, you would constantly be hearing about how the president inherited this situation. The

president inherited the situation from his predecessor. That is true in this case, President Trump did inherit this situation from his predecessor. But you won't ever come across that as a main media narrative because they like that Trump has to deal with this, and all they want to talk about is the separation of parents from children at the border, also known as a criminal prosecution. Parents are separated from children in this country every day, separated from American citizens

every day for a rest. Unless there's a parent or guardian who can take custody of the child right away, they are put in the care of child Services. This happens all the time. Anyone whose law enforcement knows this, right, if there's a mother's driving drunk and there's a kid in the back, seat and the mother is going to go down down to the jail to get processed. There's gonna be a separation that cares you're not going to bring the kid with you into the prison or into

the jail. But that's all the media wants to talk about. There are other major seams in this process. There are other things that we need to address in the immigration system as it is right now, and President Trump is trying to do that. He has called for new rules for asylum seekers that will involve charging a fee. Oh you mean that they should have to pay just like I. You know a lot of places you have to pay a visa fee. And oh yeah, that's right. You know.

I actually had a liberal today on my panel and said, you know, oh, they these people can't afford the fees. Really because they afford the five six, seven thousand dollars they're paying the Mexican cartel coyotes to get them to the border. Those who are wondering, what buck, why is it that they pay these fees if all they do is show up at the border? Ah, Because this is now a this is now effectively a protection racket, right, the old mafia model with a protection racket is. You know,

that's a nice story you got. There be a shame of something happened to it. But you know, we can keep your store safe if you just pay us, you know, ten percent of the house take every month or whatever it is. And at the border, now, if you're going to be a migrant who shows up at the border as part of one of these caravans, the cartels are controlling who's showing up for these illegal crossings, and you

have to pay off the cartels. That's how the cartels are getting very very rich along the way richer, I should say, because they're obviously already making billions of dollars off of the illicit drug trade, but paying a fee to the US government for the at least at some way maybe defraying the cost of additional immigration judges, customs and border patrol officer over time. That seems entirely reasonable

to me. That's one of the that's one of the President Trump rules for asylum seekers that they're hoping to put in place, limiting their ability to work legally. Yeah, that's right. You're an asylum seeker. We don't know if you're going to be able to stay. So because here's what happens. If if they get a job all, then oh, then they're going to go into court and they're gonna say, you know, I have a job here, now I'm I'm

in the community, and they try to establish roots. And then if you say, hold on a second, I only promise that you could be here until you had your asylum process, you know, until you got your due process. I didn't promise you could stay just because you happen to be here while you're getting your asylum due process. Then you're heartless. Then you're a mean person, you're a racist, you're a xenophobe, you're all these things. They'll say, we know this. So he's trying to curb their ability to

work legally in this country. I'm sure they're gonna work illegally. I'm sure many of them will, but at least they're not supposed to be on the books because you know,

states like California, they're gonna give them ideas. They're gonna give them, and we're gonna be told that the fabric of our nation is being carried on the backs of the waiting for asylum crowd that has illegally crossed into this country and is now abusing our system, and we know they're abusing our system, but Democrats are aiding and embedding them. And then here's the big one, or maybe I think this you could say is the biggest one.

Trump wants courts immigration courts to resolve their claims within one hundred and eighty days. So this is gonna put the courts on overdrive. You're gonna come in, you're gonna say your thing, you're gonna go. And that's and one other part of this that I'm hoping they put in place is, you know, they're gonna have to deal you can't get additional hearings after your asylum hearing, and you know, essentially allowing you to contest that's the law right now.

You can contest your deportation order specifically after you've been denied asylum. That's this is crazy. This is Trump is right when he says that we have essentially idiotic immigration laws on this, He's right. Democrats don't want to admit this because they like what's going on, but Trump is telling the truth. Or our laws are idiotic around this stuff, they absolutely are. And Trump is trying to change the game here and by making this all happen within one

hundred and eighty days. Now you have a realistic chance of a few things. One, just dealing with this backlog will send a message of control. And if you do this properly, then the word gets out that no, no, no, you can apply for asylum. But if you don't get it, you're gonna find out within six months and they're going to send you back your country of origin. Then the flow starts to stop. Because here's what the Democrats fight

tooth and nail at every opportunity. They do not want there to be any adverse consequences to breaking our immigration laws.

So they're all for, oh, the process, this and that laws, but they will not allow there to be any enforcement of the law that results in any negative consequence for any immigrant, illegal immigrant who comes into the country illegal alien, I should say, because then that in and of itself will begin to deplete the flow of these migrants coming in and exploiting the asylum process when they are really economic migrants. And as I have said time and again,

that does not make them bad people. I'm not saying they're evil. I have no animosity toward the illegal aliens that are coming across the border and claiming asylum. They just see this as the Americans are dumb enough. Well then that makes me feel a little amosity. But they see this as the American system is dumb enough. And you know, this is my chance and I'm gonna take it. This is my chance of a better life. And so

I'm going to skip the line. You know, this is if I don't jump in front of this airport line, I'm gonna miss my flight. Sorry, folks, I'm gonna jump in front of the airport line. You know that's you know, I had to pull a little bit of that yesterday. I almost got delayed at the airport and the whole thing. And I didn't jump in front of people, but I had to. I had to sweet talk someone to do something to my ticket. And man, that stuff gets stressful.

But I digress. The Trump plan here is a good one. It's a it's moving in the right direction. And from the memo, it says, this strategic exploitation of our nation's humanitarian programs undermines our nation security and sovereignty. The purpose of this memorandum is to strengthen a silent procedures to safeguard a system against rampant abuse of our asylum process, and the memo directs Attorney General William Barr to propose regulations with the ninety days that would change the rules

for asylum. And this is what we get into exactly the fee and the one hundred and eighty days going on a million cases in the backlog here, I mean, that's just that's just stratospheric that is completely out of control. So work your way through the backlog, have people pay a fee to help defray some of the costs no working,

so that you can establish roots. And then the big part of this is going to be streamlining the deportation process for those that are denied asylum, which is going to be about nine and not just those who show up and don't get it. But if you don't show up but you're hearing, there should be a deportation order on your right away. It should be a default, and

they should exercise that warrant. I mean, the immigrations, the customer enforcements should track down people that don't show up for their asylum hearing and actively and expeditiously deport them. If that does not happen, this problem only gets worse. It'll be one hundred thousand a month, every month until the poorest and neediest from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras have flooded into this country and planned to stay indefinitely forever.

That's what will happen. And you can say, well, bok, those are three countries, they're not that big at the population is that okay? But what about the next surge? What about the next country that you know we got we got big problems in Venezuela. We're gonna be talking with Venezuela in the second hour of the show. You effectively have a struggle, a violent struggle for power going

on now on the streets of Venezuela. It has turned a corner and gone into a very and this is a very important moment, but it's also a very precarious moment for that country. But what if the worst happens there? What if the Maduro government opens fire. There's just outright totalitarianism, oppression, widespread violence, crackdowns, executions of pleat I mean, it happened in Cuba, right, I mean, you look at the history

of Latin America, this would not be that. I'd say it's going to say it's beyond the pale, not even close. This wouldn't even be that surprising under the circumstances. What if we get a one hundred thousand people want to come from Venezuela, and what about the you know, you just keep going down this list. You say, what point are we allowed to object to this? What point we have a problem with what's going on here? Trump administration

is making the right move. I have concerns that you're going to see what you've had time and again, which is a Ninth Circuit judge, It'll probably be the Ninth Circuit, It'll probably be a federal judge sit again San Francisco. We'll say that some aspect of what the administration is doing here that falls within the executive ranch, within their purview, some aspect of it violates an administrative Procedure Act or something, and therefore strikes it down. They just want to do

everything they can. The left is open borders and wants to keep the border open at all costs. That's the plan. Doesn't matter what they have to do to the rule of law in the process, doesn't matter what they have to do to our sovereignty. They're they're on board. They're on board with open borders. Let's talk a little bit about Biden because I'm a major, and it's not just I don't like Biden as a candidate, disagree with them and all that. That's all you know, that that's baked

into the cake here. I don't think Biden is nearly as formidable as even some of my Republican friends do. I don't think he's going to be the nominee. I don't think he's impressive. I don't think he's their guy. But I'm open to alternative theories. We'll be right back. I want to thank Rich fids Gerold, the County executive, Balaghetti County executive, being here and all my time in

public life from the stuff gotten involved. The country wasn't built by Wall Street bankers, CEOs and Hudge and Hudge fund manager. If the enterprise, it's hard times. Everybody took a hit. Union workers, the UAW took instredible cuts in their future and their and their pensions, and the left to get GM working. They also got that last year and try to cut wages or freeze wages for their people right today. The same is happening in big hospital

in big hospital systems. I think we have to rethink how we define what concert a successful economy did America? Don't think their children gonna have the same standard of men they had. How can a person digny be maintained? Why? Why they do that? It means investing much more in medical research to conquer devastating diseases like cancer and addiction. I'm Alzheimer's extredible. Yeah, yeah, it's just stredible. There, Biden runs a little bit of the Ron Burgundy scene where

I think it's Steve Krell's like, why are we yelling? Why? Why is he just yelling everything? It all feels so very forced, it's so it's so cheesy, it's so cliche. It's we've heard all this from him before. None of this is interesting, none of this is exciting. What are the Democrats thinking? This is? This is the best that they can put forward. They've got all these they've got twenty candidates, and Biden is far and away in the league,

far and away, and he's never been impressive. How is it possible that the Democrats don't have somebody who's at least a little more interesting as their front runner. Well, I'm telling you right now, and we'll go back and we'll play the tape on this one, because I'm pretty confident in this prediction. I don't think that I don't think that Biden is gonna pull it off. I don't think I don't mean that he's not gonna win. I don't think that he's going to be the Democrat nominee.

I just and look, it's very hard to make these predictions. Everybody that thought that they, well, not a lot a lot of you listing actually knew that Trump was gonna win. And I don't know how you did that. And you're some kind of magicians out there in Team Buckland, but in all the political class didn't know that Trump is gonna win. Here laughing, You're like, yeah, I know, but Biden, it's tough to make these predictions. But I'm predicting Biden

can't win. I mean, also, the stuff he's saying about tax cuts just not true. Play sixteen here. Everybody knows the middle class is hurting. It. It's hurting now. Fifty three percent of the folks in America dump think their children gonna have the same standard of me they had. The best of my knowledge, is the first time that's happened in a long, long, long time. The stock market is roaring but you don't feel it. There's two trillion dollars tax cut last last year. Did you feel it?

Did you get anything from it? Of course not, of course not. Allo went to folks with the top and corporations that pay no taxes. The number of corporations that pay no taxes now has doubled since that tech. Look, guys, this is not good. Yeah, it's not good. Joe. Your whole speech not good, your whole approach not good. Democrats are gonna have to be better. I mean, I hope they don't. So in a sense, maybe I should just

be quiet and let them put Joe Biden forward. But this guy, he's just not a winner, never has been. And I think there's a lot of stuff about his background, and there's stuff, some stuff, some family stuff that's going to come out that's not going to be good for the damns, my friend. So they better find another front runner and find one fast. When it comes to ben Roads, Remember he's the same guy who told us the catalyst for Benghazi and the attack that took place there where

four Americans gave their life for our country. He's the same guy who told us it was all caused by a video. So I don't put a whole lot of weight in what he says. What I do know is an opposition research document was the basis to go get a warrant to do what spy on a person associated with the Trump campaign. I do know those things happen, and it seems to me, based on what Bill Bill Bar said a couple of weeks ago, he thinks there

may be more there. We know ten days after what we now know as Hurricane crossfire, the investigation into Trump, that there was a briefing at the White House with Obama's chief of staff, and so to suggest that they didn't know anything, it's just not accurate. Obama knew stuff. I think that's quite obvious. But somehow that hasn't gotten nearly the attention that it should. Somehow that doesn't, That doesn't rate for the media. Where was Obama on all of this? What kind of a hand in this during

an election year? I mean, you know, we're gonna talk about Venezuela later this hour. People are using the term coup a lot here here in the term coup, and there's a fight over whether that's an accurate description or is that a counter coup. Isn't it we had an attempted coup in this country. We had elements of the Democratic Party, the media, and the federal bureaucracy try to stop and then end a president who was duly elected by over sixty million of his fellow Americans. We had

that happen here in America. And if this hasn't really yet settled, you know, this hasn't yet found its way into the blood stream in DC in a way that it's going to have to. But I'm not going to forget this. Others like me aren't going to forget this. And you know, this is something we have to take very very seriously because all the sanctimony about our democracies at stake when it came to Russia collusion which did not exist, that stuff truly applies to what we're talking

about here. The abusive finds the Obama administrations, machinations behind the scenes here, or lack of oversight even I could you imagine walking into the Oval office and saying, yeah, you know, we we have this this oporesearch document that's essentially just a collection of rumors. That's all it is. That is what the dossier was rumors. You know, I could go around and pull together, chat room comments on news stories involving politicians of all sort of crazy stuff.

If I pulled all that together, put it in a document, and showed up at the FBI and they opened up a Fizer warrant on somebody based on that crap, lousy nonsense that I pulled together, everybody would know that that was just incredibly unethical and wrong and an abuse and unconstitutional. And that's what happened here, except instead of it being chat room comments on the Internet, where you know people in the comment section always freaked out, it was Russian

subsources of Christopher Steele for the dossier. If that is sufficient to get a Fizer warrant, then effectively anything that you could think of is sufficient to get a FIZO warrant. I mean, you could just make it up. If there's no verification process for the information that's going to go before a Fizer court, which clearly there is not, then what you have is a backdoor means to le ridge the spying power. That's what it is of the federal

government against political opponents. And that is what happened. That is exactly what happened. I agree with Newt here speaking of coups there's the venezuela. Is it a coup or not? And then there's what happened here with Trump. A tale of two coups, if you will. Here's the Newtster play nine.

This was an attempted coup deta. This was an effort by a group of people to undermine the choice of the American people because they had arrogated to themselves that they were morally superior and they had the right to deny us the constitutional system. That's what it was. The challenge to the president and to Attorney General bar Is to have the nerve to calmly and methodically get everything out in the open, let the American people see how

sick the system had gotten. I've been talking to sources this week here in DC that are high up in the federal government about this, and I'm being assured, I have been assured that there will be an accounting for what happened here. But I'm going to tell you this, and you know, I meaning that the spying and the effort to undermine Trump, not just undermine him, to push him aside a coup, data to remove him as the head of state in this country. That is what happened

that is what they were trying to do. It is obvious, it is clear at this point. But here's my problem. Even if we get some degree of transparency out of this process, even if there is and I think, I think Bill Barr is a stud I mean, I think that guy is a superstar and he's not a he's not a showboater, but he knows the law and he doesn't care what they're going to say about him. And Bill Barr is what Trump needs. Bill Barr needs people who know the law, know what's coming for them, and

will stand and fight effectively. He doesn't need some of the clown show that he unfortunately has has put around him at different points in the administration. I mean, we're past the point, my friends. We could say that Trump only picks the best people, maybe for his companies, maybe in his businesses, not the case in government. You know, I give you well, I'm not it's not even worth naming a vision with Michael Cohen. I mean, I can

start naming the names. You'd be here all night. But Bill Barr is going to get the information out there. That doesn't mean there's going to be consequences. Bureaucracies are incredibly adept at evading consequences for the people inside of them who miss step as long as they were doing so and not harming the actual bureaucracy. Right, So if I work at the FBI and I do something really bad, as long as it doesn't hurt the FBI, then they're going to find a way to mitigate the consequences against

that individual. This is true across the federal government. I mean, I could, you know, agency after agency, I could go through and tell you about examples of this. You know, if you work at the CIA, and if you come at the CIA, you're gonna get crushed if you mess up, but you know, you we're doing your job and you're well thought of it the agency, you're probably gonna be okay. You know, just go from place to place within the

federal government. And that's that's the case. But this was an attempt at coup and we need to have a full accounting for that. I also want to note that whenever they start to talk about how the investigation was about Russia collusion, I mean that's just a lie. I mean, the investigation was up Trump. It really wasn't, because Russia collusion is effectively irrelevant. It was minor. It was a blip. It was a pretextual rationalization for all the things that

they did to Trump. All right, That's that's what it was. I mean, Russia collusion was not something that changed the election. And if you need proof of that, all you have to do is think about why is it that the Obama administration, when all this stuff is going on, he's getting briefings about it, He's being told about this. And we know how panic people like John Brennan and James Clapper and others supposedly were in the twenty sixteen election

as all of this is happening. We know we've been told so many times, oh my gosh, the Russians, the Russians are coming, the Russians are coming. And yet they didn't do anything. They waited to see if Hillary was going to win. They made a political calculation. The Obama administration made a political calculation not to take definitive or even in any kind of meaningful action about the Russia interference.

Because I'm almost positive that there was some discussion in the Oval Office at some point involving Obama on this issue. I mean, this is just I'm surmising here, but I'm telling you I'm right, and they're like, look, I mean, you know, so there's Russian stuff's going on. We don't want to make a big deal of this. It's it's not going to change the election. Hillary is gonna win. And if we make a big deal of it and Hillary wins, then they'll say that it was an illegitimate election.

Then the right will come out with all their conspiracy theories. So what they did was the Obama administration suppressed this because it was in their electoral interest to do so, not it wasn't about the national security of this country. It was about their electoral interests. And Rod Rosenstein, who you know, I'm not a fan of I am not a Rod Rosenstein person. I think that Rod, I'm going to wear a wire to prove the president's crazy. And keep in mind, think about how stupid this guy is.

Even if he wore that wire and he got the president what calling out the fake news media. You know, we've never heard anything from any of these people that really suggest the president's crazy. I mean, to remove the president using the twenty fifth Amendment, it would have to be the president is seeing pink elephants flying around in the sky and he can't remember his name, and he

is not of sound mind. Is Rod Rosenstein not smart enough to understand that the president saying things that offend Rod Rosenstein's delicate little Democrat sensibilities doesn't count as you need to get removed from being president the United States. So I don't know how smart Rosenstein is. I mean, let's start with that. But he did come out give credit where its due and take a little swipe at the Obama administration for making a choice. And it was

a choice. They decided that this is the way it was going to be, making a choice to not make a big deal out of this play clip five. Previous administration not to publicize the full story about Russian computer hackers and social media trolls and how they relate to Russia's broader strategy to undermine America. The FBI disclose classified information about that investigation to selective lawmakers and their staffers. Someone selectively leaked information to the news media. The FBI

director to Slows at a congressional hearing. But there was account of intelligence investigation that might result in criminal charges. Yeah, there was. There was a whole lot of lawbreaking going on in this process too. I want to know who was leaking all this stuff. I want them to get who leaked Flynn's phone call becus. I'm telling you that that is to leak that kind of spying information to the press for partisan you know, as a partisan weapon that needs to be rooted out. I mean, that needs

to be punished severely. That person should go to prison for years years. And I think it was a senior I think it was a senior official of the Department of Justice under the Obama administration, I really do. Do I think they'll ever get him. It depends or her could be a her. Do I think they'll ever get that person. I don't know, but I I you know that that's a serious crime, and we don't we don't hear much about it all from media because they didn't

want to talk about that crime. They don't talk about these other make believe cries. It supposedly happened involving Trump in Russia, all the rest of it. I'm I'm not going to drop this one, my friends. I'm not gonna let this let this fall by the wayside. What has been going on in this country last two years with

the Muller probe is a is a disgrace. I think that Mueller, in a just out of spite, you walked out of the house and decided to light the curtains on fire, you know, just just just take out a lighter and just light him. Oh I didn't, I didn't do anything terrible. I just you know, Yeah, he knew what was gonna happen, and he's created Muller has created a roadmap for Congress to impeach the president the United States.

He used the office he had as a special Special Counsel to set the Democrats up for an impeachment proceeding against the president to prevent what is really the worst fear the Democrats have is not Russia interfering in our election. It's not even Russia picking our next president. Their worst fear is Donald Trump winning re election. That is their worst fear. That is the thing that really keeps them up at night. And that is a fear that they should have because I think it is very likely that's

what's going to happen. They I'm sure hate to hear that, but that is the reality. We've got more team coming up. Stay with me. This is an epidemic, and we have a president who will not only will not acknowledge that we have an epidemic of white nationalists are off to New Zealand, to just a few people, He's providing the mood music for it. That is the reality we face. Yeah, I think the President needs to at some point look in them here and you understand that the rhetoric, the

words he uses in all of this inflame. This about big part of what's going on in America. Give permission to the most craziest people in America. And it happens in part because there's a climate set at the top of unbelievable constant wise and hostility and division in this country. The conspiracy theories cited by these neo Nazis in Pittsburgh and New Zealand and now outside San Diego, conspiracy theory

that Trump never condemned and actually seemed to support. And remember, Donald Trump just over the last two couple of days have been defending what he said in Charlottesville, and it echoed called back into our memory, right, something that just happened not too long ago, What happened in Pittsburgh. Donald Trump and all of this hate rights part of the environment of today, and he bears some responsibility for it.

And we don't know if it has any connection to the politics that's going on, but I mean it would be a stretch to say that it doesn't. It's all He's Trump's fault. You see, everything bad that happens, according to the left, must be Trump's fault because Trump is the evil, bad Orange man that haunts liberals dreams. And they can't ever just think about it an event for what it really was and for in this case, the atrocity of a shooting, yet another shooting in a house

of worship. They have to find a way to tie it immediately to the President of the United States. It is his fault, you know, the president who has a son in law who is Jewish and who is his top advisor, Jared Kushner is the President's number one advisor from everyone that I've spoken to in this White House. He has a daughter who he's obviously thinks the world

of and she converted to Judaism. But the media would have us believe the President Trump is some kind of a secret anti semi This is really the This is the line they're going to go with. This is the way they're going to try to make this baggage for Trump well, the answer is, oh, yes, yes, of course,

that's what they do. They claim that the president is divisive, and then they tell you and me that the president the guy that you voted for, not all of you maybe, but most of you that listen to this, and that I voted for that guy. He's the reason for this. So if you support him, what does that say about you? That's what they want you to take away from this. That's their version of events here, that's what they're presenting

you in the media. And you know, here's CNN's Don Lemon and Ala Navarro, two of the dumbest people on television, talking about how they don't they don't even when the president condemns what happened, they don't believe his condemnation play clip one, instead of trafficking in bigotry and racism and anti semitism, in hate and making excuses for us. I want to believe it. I want to believe it. I'm going to be real. How do you believe him? What

should we believe? You don't believe him. We all saw and we all know that he didn't say a word about the black churches. We all know that he didn't say a word condemning Steve King, a congressman from Iowa. So it's time after time after time after time. No, we don't want to believe you want to, but we need to, but I don't know that we can. Yeah, they're delusional, Navarro, and I don't know who else that there was a lemon and some other voice came in there.

They're delusional. You can't believe that the president condemns bigotry, and yet they can't believe that he's condemning bigotry. The President had nothing to do with this shooter, had nothing to do with this situation, but it is his fault. You know this. This is just so destructive and I would argue so dishonest, But this is what the Democrats do now. They find a way to tie everything to President Trump that is negative and nasty because there are

people that will believe it, that are this wacko. Trump has deranged them to the extent where you know, if it's bad weather in Philly, it's because of Trump. I mean, it's just nuts. The Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guidot is launching what he calls the final stage of Operation Freedom to try to topple the disputed President Nicolas Maduro and a warning about this next video. Earlier this afternoon, we watched as an armored military vehicle plowed full speed through

a crowd of protesters. Now you have armored vehicles in Venezuela, under the command of Nicholas Maduro running over opposition figures. Where is all of us heading in Venezuela. We have Ana Rossa Kintana joining us now. Now she is a policy analyst at the Heritage Foundation. She specializes in Latin America and agreed to have you back. Hey, nice, nice to talk to you. So, okay, what do we need

to know about today in Venezuela. I mean, yeah, so today there's a very pivotal day, right, I mean, so Guido. Originally the protests were supposed to take place tomorrow, but Guido was told by sources in the military that Maduro had planned on arresting him. So that's why they moved up the demonstrations to today. And today we saw publicly many military officials were publicly defecting and publicly recognizing Guido,

which is that's pretty significant. We saw that Leopoldo Lopez, who had been in prison for about five years, is was finally free for a few hours, and it was on the street and was demonstrating as well. He's now at the Chilean Ambassador's residence seeking refuge there. I think what we're seeing right now is, you know, we're seeing something inevitable. What it's the lead to. Nobody really knows.

Is Guido going to be successful, is he going to be arrested, is he going to potentially going to be killed. I mean, nobody really knows. It's a very dynamic and evolving situation on this point about whether or not this is a coup. There's a lot of chatter back and forth in the press in this country on that specific verbiage, whether or not it's proper to call it a coup. What do you say, I mean, it's it's absolute Maduro

propaganda to call the SIKU. Because one, if you call the CeCu, then you recognize that Maduro is Venezuela's legitimate leader. And it's very well known that the May twenty eighteen elections were highly fraudulent. He stole the elections. Right. The only legitimate electoral body in Venezuela's country is the country's National Assembly, which is why on January tenth, the day

that was supposed to be Madua's an occuration day. Juan Guai, though, became Venezuela's president because according to Article two thirty three a Venezuela's Constitution, if there exists a void in the if there's a avoid in the head of state, the head of the National Assembly assumes the presidency, and that was Juan Guido who was the head of the National Assembly.

So no, this is not a coup whatsoever. Now what happens if this doesn't work, what happens if Guido's forces And by the way, for those listening, is this You know, these had their demonstrations, but there was there was a lot of gunfire. Today there's video circulating of the armored vehicle running over some people who are obviously part of the opposition. There is there a military component of this,

There are military defections. I mean, who has the advantage here where it comes to the ability to project force on the streets. I mean, it's it's it's quite clear that unfortunately Maduro has the upper hand in this respect because Maduro has Cuba's police state backing him, right, and this is why you haven't seen these widespread military defections because this police state system was created to I entify and prevent widespread defections, and the defections that we've seen today.

I mean, these soldiers and these military officials are incredibly brave because they're putting their lives in danger, their families

lives in danger. So I mean, I think it's it's a matter of this is a time when and I hate using the term international community, but this is actually a time for the international community and democracy and freedom loving countries, particularly the fifty four that recognize Guido, the stand up and let Maduro know that they are going to be strong consequences one if anything happens to Maduro,

and too if he finally does not step down. I mean, there's a lot that these other countries have not done. They are not replicating US sanctions. They are not seizing Maduro and his officials illicit assets inside of their countries. They're not revoking the visas of the families living inside of Spain and Canada and other countries living incredibly luxuriously. So they still have not fully actualized a pressure campaign against Maduro, which is why he still thinks he has time.

And I mean they need if they're going to support Maduro. They need they need to do this now. People in this country, generally, I think, seem to be on board for supporting those who are paying attention and who care Guido versus Maduro. Maduro as a socialist, he's a thug, He's a bad guy who runs what is effectively a narco state, which I think never really gets enough attention.

That some of the top people in the Venezuelan government are sanctioned by the Treasury Department for being narco traffickers, which shows you a lot about the governance of this country. But there's also this left wing narrative you keep hearing of we should stay out, this isn't really our problem. What do you say to that. I mean, I think that is such absurdity, right just on the point of the narco part. I mean, it's people. It's been as fall in officials at the highest levels who are directly

involved in drug trafficking. And we talk about the opioid crisis in the United States, but we neglect to talk about the fact that we still have a massive cocaine crisis in this country. And we're glad to talk about how the cocaine crisis continues to stabilizing South America, Central America and Mexico and the United States. Venezuela is then vice president. When he was designated as a drug trafficking kingpin, they found over five hundred million dollars of drug trafficking

related assets directly in the United States. And he's only one person. There have been dozens of others who've been sanctioned and designated as drug trafficking kingpins as well. And so the threat of drugs, this is a nonpartisan issue, and this is something that affects everybody, regardless of the ideology that you believe in. And so this is an area where I think the United States and other countries need to be proactively engaged to mitigate the damage that

these guys are causing. On the point about the military balance of power, here, here's what National Security Advisor Bolton said about Maduro and the degree of support for him in the military. I want to have you react to at play Club nineteen. What do you think the chances that this uprising will work? Then? Well, I don't think it's support in the military for the Maduro regime. I think it's fear make its fear of the twenty to

twenty five thousand Cubans security forces in the country. I think it's fear of the consequences if adhering to the constitutional mandate of the interim president fails. But I think, really now, what we're seeing is the people of Venezuela. This has been building for a long time, that if this effort fails, they will sink into a dictatorship from which there are very few possible alternatives. It's a very

delicate moment. I want to stress again, the president wants to see a peaceful transfer of power from Maduro to Guido. That possibility still exists if enough figures depart from the regime and support the opposition, And a fair to say that that possibility of a peaceful transfer of power is

fading rapidly. I mean, I think the longer this dragged out, and the longer Maduro believes that he can hold on, and the longer the Russians believe that Madurou believe Duro can hold on, I think, yes, it does reduce the ability. It doesn't fully eliminate it, though, right, I mean, I think, but during means to believe that he has no other options, and he still has not gotten to that point, and I truly believe it's because other countries have not reciprocated

and not replicated the US's sanctions regime. I think once we get to that point, because the demet that the internal pressure campaign in Venezuela is there. I mean, we're seeing Venezuelans consistently risking their lives pushing back against the regime.

We're seeing international actors, you know, international players, right the fifty four countries voicing diplomatic support, but really only one or two countries, the United States and at times the Canadians really pushing back and you know, putting teeth behind these words. And I think until other countries do more, I mean, it's really he's not going to he's not

going to step down. You think right now, given what's happening on the streets of Venezuela, and people are obviously seeing the videos and there's some very harrowing footage of gunfire and people on on both sides of it, I think it's an overpass or a bridge when there's a lot of a lot of gunfire going on. Do you do you think that if the Venezuelan military has given the order to open fire on a large, large group of anti Maduro protesters. Do you think that they would

do it? I mean, I think so. I think we've seen these situations before, where you've seen the military attacking unarmed protesters. I mean, I can remember back in twenty fourteen when the uprisings, when they were massive anti government uprisings, when Leopoldo Lopez was originally arrested. I mean, the video is coming out of Venezuela, just them slaughtering unarmed students were just were horrific, and we saw videos of tanks running over students, and there was very little impetus even

by then President Obama to respond to this. Any chance of US being we mentioned Obama. I mean, do you think that there's any way that the US could realistically find itself having to take some kind of a military position here. I honestly, I would hope it doesn't. I hope it doesn't get to that, right, because this is not just the US's problem. This is Columbia's problem, this is Brazil's problem, his Candada's problems, is everybody else's problem.

It's not just the US problem. And this is not the US is not the only country who has the capability to really put an end to this crisis, and these shouldn't leave it up to us to deal with it. Anna Kintana over at Heritage, Anna, thank you so much for joining us. Appreciate it now. I was great talking you. All right, team, We'll be right back. This is obviously a very serious situation. The President has been monitoring at the minute by minute throughout the day, as have his advisors.

We see this now as a potentially dispositive moment in the efforts of the Venezuelan people to regain their freedom, which we fully support. We think it's still very important for key figures in the regime who have been talking to the opposition over these last three months to make good on their commitments to achieve the peaceful transfer of power from the Maduro clique to enter in President Juan Guido.

The Cubans, we believe have played a very significant role in propping Maduro up today, possibly with help from the Russians, that's the speculation. Certainly in Caracas. We think this demonstrates why we need Venezuela ruled by the people of Venezuela and not by external forces. Just some final thoughts here on what's happening in Venezuela. There you had a National Security Visor Bolton give a kind of overview statement of what's happening right now down to our south in Venezuela.

And I do think that it's easy to overstate how much this does affect us. And I would want to put in some context here that at the end of the day, Venezuela being a disaster or not, we wanted to be a happy, prosperous country and that would be best for the people of Venezuela, be best for our hemisphere, and certainly for US companies that have assets there and the oil markets and our access to Venezuelan Crewe does these things do have effects on us, I'm not saying

we are. And then you add in the drug component of this, the illegal drugs that are flowing from Venezuela with state support all the way up into the United States. But ultimately this really is a Venezuelan problem. And I think that part of what the Trump administration has been promising us all along is that we wouldn't do what recent administrations have done, which is decided that we are going to make everyone else's problems our problems, that we are not going to push for a kind of US

making everyone else's issues go away foreign policy. And I think that that's important guiding principle for US, I really do, and I would like to see more going forward. I'd like to see more of that in Venezuela. We're doing some stuff, We're not doing too much stuff yet. I hope it stays that way. Do I think this is going to get if you're wondering, I do think this is just going to get a lot uglier. I don't think this is going to turn the peaceful transfer power.

We're past that, in my opinion. I could be wrong. I'm hoping. I mean, there's already been some violence, or a fair amount of violence, just in the last twenty four hours. But I think this is going to turn into some real pitched battles in the streets. I just can't see someone like Mduro walking away from the controls of power. Remember, it's not just him, it's all of his top people. It's their fears about their families, it's their future in their minds, no matter what, never how

thuggish their behavior has been. Thugs don't want to rot in a Venezuelan prison, you know, thugs don't want to be held to account for drug trafficking, and whatever they have to do, they're gonna do. So I think that this is I think this is going to get worse before it gets better. Now, switching gears here for a moment if I can, because there's a lot of conversation out there about socialism and why why can't we learn

the lesson of history that socialism does not work. It just like oh but Bok, Sweden and Denmark, and those are not socialist countries. They are countries with very high taxes and very large social welfare programs, but they're also culturally quite cohesive and have traditions and government systems in place that tend to be more efficient and corruption free than what you have in a lot of other places.

Latin America is not well known for rooting out corruption in its midst to put it mildly, but another problem that we have. You know, why can't we learn the lesson of why socialism is bad? Or why can't we learn the lesson about how enlarging government does not result in all these magical and wonderful things we're told that it will. Well, it's because we're being we're often lied to about it. There's not It's not just that people

don't learn the lessons of history. The leadership that's supposed to be able to tell us, Hey, you know, we've all learned this lesson together. No, they make it up as they go along. I mean, here is Biden who made some appearances today on the show, and I'm just gonna keep saying it. I don't think he's impressive. I don't think he's a real threat. I just don't think he can be Trump at all. I think anyone who really believes that is kind of deluding themselves. But Biden

lies about the Trump tax cuts. He just lies about it. Pay sixteen. It's well past time that the minimum ways can actually be a minimum of fifteen dollars. Time to start rewarding work over a wealth test. The first step is the reverse President Trump's tax cut for the very wealthy and corporations. We need to eliminate these special tax creates from the fact coach that rewards special mectis. Let's

get rid of capital gains loophole for multi millionaires. Warren Buffets said the best he should not pay a lower tax fraate than the Secretary has thanks love. That's because the capital gains. It's wrong. You know what else is wrong? Saying that the tax cuts were only for the wealthy. It's a lie. It's not just an opinion, it's it's a lie to say that. But Biden goes around saying that. You'll notice that the does the media do a whole pinocchios thing about Biden every time he says, of course

not fact checkers. Just like all the rest of the media, fact checkers are are a dominated profession by leftists, and they use it to great effect to push their own political agenda. So why don't we learn the lessons, in part because we're always being lined to and people have other things to do. Then dig into the history, although I hopefully cover a fair amount of it here on the show. But yeah, Biden lies a lot, folks. Keep that in mind. We'll be right back. A Navy seal

accused of war crimes. This story has been getting some attention. We're hoping that it gets more because our guest joining us now says that this is this is unjust, this is not right, what is happening, and he'll give us all the backstory. Here we have our friend Tyler Merritt joining us. He is a formerly a member of the United States Armed Forces and he is currently the CEO of nine Line Apparel. Tyler, thanks for joining us, Hey, thanks for having me on all. So tell me the

story here. What do people and in case they don't know, give us a little bit of the backstory too. What do they need to know right now about Eddie Gallagher? Well, if you want to know all the false news, you can go to New York Times check out David phillips ridiculous article about Navy seal warns against reporting their chief full war crimes, where he goes on and publicly condemns

the allegations of the actions of this Navy seal. And really that's the main premise is that this individual has been deemed guilty and now has to prove himself innocent, and not only the eyes of the public opinion, but now with the UCMJ, and as we both know, the UCMJ system is a little bit flawed and the fact that you don't have the same freedoms and rights that

a civilian does. And I think that the American public needs to know that there's currently some undue command influence that are affecting this case, and there's some false narratives out there that have the potential of sending a veteran the US Navy seals. So when he's been in the army for the Navy for nineteen and a half years to prison for the rest of his life without the

positive possibility of UM. This is just something that needs to get out there and people need to listen and understand why the President has stepped up and said that he needs to be removed from a confinement. Uh. Can I ask that what? What is the what is the narrative that the as you said, the New York Times and some of the leftist media is saying about this guy? And then and then what's the what are the facts

of the cases? You know them? Yeah? So the New York Time has said that in addition to um murdering a seventeen year old boy, he also killed or attempted to kill a small child. Uh, this is my favorite part of the report. So you understand terminal bilistics and caliber of a long range assault rifle, especially something you know just below a fifty cow and what it would do to a small child if you were to strike them.

And the Times report says that I witness accounts uh say that Gallagher shot a small girl and then she got up and walked away. You shoot someone with a fifty calor equivalent in the so calm round. They're not getting up. Their body parts are being spread apart many many feet. And really the premise of this is there's a video and some images of a ISIS fighter, not a child, a seventeen year old military aged man who, yes, we the United States murdered him. We did it with

missiles from an aircraft. You wanted a why because you're you're an intelligence community? What is a source? You know, when we're tracking a source and the special operations between ECIA, you know that? Or the device it's their cell phone. You know, we're tracking this individual who's a bomb maker. It doesn't matter. He's seventeen years old, and we prosecuted a target. They went and exploited the target for ssee site survey exploitation, and they found this seventeen year old.

The Iraqi general is seen interrogating him and he's got you know, what looks like a severed promoral artery. He's got a sucking chest. Women, he's in bad shape, lethargic in the video, and this Iraqi general it was actually tracked down by friends of mine after the fact, and he has gone on record saying that the Navy field did not murder this child. He actually intervened to try to provide life saving techniques and there's actually a video

out there that shows him doing this. But what happened was, after all of this occurred, Eddie and his platoon from the Sale Team seven made a bad decision. They took a picture with the deceased all around him, and Eddie had a knife out and was holding onto the child, and then the captain of a picture it said something the fact that I got him with my hunting knife, and that's really where this whole thing came about. People

to that ran with it. And the facts of the case are that this Navy seal attempted to provide life saving techniques to an individual who severely wounded did not end up being able to keep him alive. But the rumor mill had already started from this picture, and the Navy commander at Captain Rosenblow, even though he was presented with copious amounts of evidence and eyewitness accounts and videos that said he did not murder this child, and by ways,

now a child is a fighter. He decided to proceed with charges anyways as his right as a commander, and chose not to go through SOCA, not to go through

naval special warfare, but to go through conventional Navy. And since then they have leaked information into the New York Times, as the New York Times reporter has stated, they've withheld a lot of the exculpatory evidence, and they can seemed to push this narrative that this Navy seal killed a child, and while the actions of taking pictures imposing with the deceased are not, you know, widely condoned or really understood.

I'll tell you from being someone who's deployed many, many times with guys in the special operations community, you're asking people to go do bad things to bad people, and you have to dehumanize individuals sometimes. And that's not making excuses. It's trying to explain to the general public that if you ask an individual as deploy ten, twelve, thirteen times and to go take out the enemy, it does desensitize people.

And that's the dark humor that people don't understand. We're speaking to Tyler, Tyler Merritt's CEO of nine Line Apparel and a former combat pilot in the special Operations community himself, Tyler, the treatment that this Navy seal has received is also a major concern of yours, and you want to raise

awareness about that. I think most most folks you know who don't have family and military or having served themselves, would assume that, well, at least while awaiting trial or a while awaiting due process within the UCMJ system, that someone like Chief Gallagher would be treated reasonably well. But from what I see here, that is not the case,

absolutely not. So he was put to pre trial confinement in prison, would rapist and murders for the last seven months only until a Republican Duncan Harner Pete, he saith other individuals stepped up and begged for the President to intervene, and he did and he ordered for Gallagher to be released from pre trial confinement. Well, this Navy captain has some serious pulse and really big Hines decided that he would institute his own pre trial confinement on the naval base.

So Eddie is not allowed to be out of uniform, he's not allowed to have visitors, even Republican representatives. Stunking Hunter or one of his associates attempted to stop by because you know he was involved with this case, and the captain would not allow that individual to see at a gallaghery, he's not allowed to talk to his lawyer without using the phone that is issued to the watch commander,

and the watch commander stands directly over it. And so imagine trying to have a conversation with your attorney about your case, but your commander's delegate is standing two inches away from him. That's not really privacy. In addition to that, he's not allowed to really talk along, so he can talk for five minutes about his case that could send him to prisons his life. And then he's told him needs to get the phone back, but he's not allowed

to cell phone and he's not allowed a computer. By the way, the only reason you take away computers are for like pedophilia. People who have an issue with that are usually told you can't have a computer, But a computer's kind of needed to prepare for your defense of your life. Tyler, I know you, what would you like

to see? And there's a part of this as well, that's an action item for folks who want to try to help the Chief Gallagher, but well, what would you propose or what would you recommend that the president or just the military chain of command due in the circumstance. Hashtag free Eddie. Social media is a powerful tool. Continue to push to your congressman the senators that you know, we have a lot of people who voluntarily sign up for the armed services. They're willing to give their life.

Eddie has done his duty to this country. He does not deserve this. He deserves the right to a fair trial. He deserves to be home with his wife and children. You know, this is devastating for him emotionally, mentally and for his family. You know, to put someone through that, he's already done so much, to not even give him the modicum of respect of the presumption of innocence is

absolutely ridiculous. And that's the one major flaw of the U s UCMJ system, This presumption of guilt just by an accusation, and there's tons of false accusations out there. I would equate it to the he said, she said rape accusations. You know, rape is horrible, it's serious, but sometimes, as we all know, people make those things up in this case. There's a lot of the backstory to kind

of explain here of how this came about. But you know, you have some millennial, younger Navy seals that you didn't like Gallagher, and Gallagher's promoted and going to be in charge of the training center, and they didn't agree with his tactics. He did a lot of daytime operations and as you and I both know, those are the most dangerous,

but they're also the most effective. So it creates controversy across It creates ribs, and then people decide, you know what, I'm going to make it complaint Eddie Gallagher kills children. He shouldn't be in charge of people and sending training. And a lot of times the military we sweep things in the rug. We just reassigned people. In a lot of time, people absolutely overreact and they take these accusations

as truth as opposed to digging into the facts. So posing with a deceased isis fighter is bad, But that's a war crime that you need to go to prison for the rest of your life. Then I knowing a lot of people who should be very concerned, and you're selling two shirts to raise money for Eddie's defense at

nine Line Apparels, I understand it. Yeah, yeah, And the last few weeks have been able to raise almost one hundred thousand dollars for his defense, and that's great and it sounds like a lot, but unfortunately he's going up against a giant soon with unlimited resources, and the average costs or something like this is four or five hundred thousand dollars, so we're a little bit short. If people go to nine Line apparel dot com, they can obviously

purchase shirts. You can also Google search the hashtag of free Eddie and you'll see all the different non profits involving can directly give funds. But honestly, the best thing that could happen is to create a big public outcry and learn and get educated on all the ins and outs of what's wrong with the UCMJ system. And the only thing that I'd say is a positive is the power of social media and the power of the press

to be able to go push back. DD And now the Secretary of Defense last night issued a demand for the IG in Sector General to look at the dealings of the prosecutors because they're leaking information to the press, false information which is an absolute crime. And they're withholding information material information from the defense attorneys, which is another

absolute crime. And these things can be proven. So it's a really big black eye in the Navy, and when recruitments at an all time low and you're having issues trying to get people to come and join the services, ying one of your own under a false narrative by a New York Times reporter that continues to exacerbate the situation for you know, personal games, clickbait, Dave Phillips making infamous. This guy is not a reporter, this is not fact.

He's a warrior, and he's he's he's deserves a lot more process and presumption of innocence than he's getting right now, that's for sure. Tyler Merritt, everybody, CEO, Nineline Apparel, Tyler, thanks for calling him, my friend. We'll talk to you soon. Thanks,

but team, we'll be right back. I want to make sure that those who work in the oil and gas industry, those who work in the fossil fuel industry, are brought along as partners to make sure that we make this transition in the ten years that we have left to us,

as the science and scientists tell us. So I'm going to work with listen to everyone, anytime, anywhere to make sure that we advance this agenda and get to zero net zero greenhouse gas emissions by twenty fifty or Donda just ten years because of global warming, but I just Betto, I thought it was twelve years. Like what happened on the global warming? Oh my gosh, where is Betto? This guy is entirely unserious as a political candidate, but in an era of left wing absurdity, it's hard. It's hard

to say that with any certainty. Beto. It's like, all of a sudden, at the bottom of the polls, like he's just not doing well. He went from being the new hotness, apparently very popular with the ladies. I don't really see it, ladies. I'm just I don't see it. I don't know what to tell you. But you know, he went from being the guy to now somebody who people are thinking. He may not last that long in

this whole thing. It's possible that he has some breakout moment or whatever it may be, but the Democrats have turned on him pretty rapidly. But here he is making this case about how we're gonna have nets zero greenhouse gas emissions by twenty fifty. Does anyone take these people, these politicians seriously when they say stuff like this, Beto

O'Rourke is going to have nothing to do. He's gonna have no say in the conversation in well, I was going to say in five years, never mind in thirty and more like five months, given the way that he's going right now. I don't understand how people can be so fooled by this climate change absurdity. I don't understand how they can think that this is really this catastrophic threat. I mean I analyze for you often what they think

and how they presented and the way. But at the end of the day, it's so idiotic that it's it's just hard to fathom. It's such a stupidity and such an obvious delusion. But for a lot of Democrats it is a matter of orthodoxy now. I mean, if you if you deviate from this, I don't think you can be in good standing anymore as a Democrat and not be a climate change at armist. I think it is now in that same category along with being pro choice, you know, pro abortion. I think you have to be

pro abortion. I think you have to be pro well anti gun. You have to be you know, those are the I'm trying to think what else on the left? Oh, you have to be part of the transagenda now to be a leftist. If you are a Democrat and you're not in favor of make believe, pronounce for people and all that stuff that that you're you're going to get a lot of heat. And Beto is a bit of an idiot on policy, but you know who else is not smart on policy? And it's doing incredibly well for

the Democrats. Alexandria Ocasio Orte Cortez, who had this to say about the Veterans Administration the VA, something that she I'm sure knows absolutely nothing about. But in case you didn't know, now you know play eleven about healthcare. That's because we can starve our public system start of budgets the job we can see. You know, she she knows nothing about the VA. She has no substance to the

things that she says, but neither it is Betto. And what you see is that Democrats this doesn't bother them at all. These people are effectively actors, and that's why they care so much about their appearance and their ethnicity and their you know, their personal story and how they fit into the diversity diversity rhetoric and all this stuff.

Um because it's so superficial and the Democratic Party doesn't seem to have any uniting principles whatsoever other than big government stayed in place of God and putting forward some politicians who are just ignoramuses. Rock and roll fellow patriots, we made ours go up to eleven. It's time for Roll Call Ronnie. Remember Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton for Roll Call Ronnie Rights. Commercial for Bob left Zets podcast comes on before your show. It starts with welcome

back to the Bob left Set show. Very confusing. Some people turn off your show thinking they got the wrong show. Well, Ronnie, hopefully, hopefully we can figure that out. That's not good. I don't know what's going on there. I do not know what that's all about, but we will look into it, Ronnie. You know I got We're on a new podcast platform now. You know, Buck's only got so many, so many things he can handle at one time, so I'll have to look into this one. Thanks guys for bringing to my

attention Monique Rights Aloha. I wanted to know who covered for you on April twenty ninth, twenty nineteen. An English gentleman liked him. I like you too, doing guest appearances on Fox News. Thank you well, Monique. That would be Rahim Kassam, who has the fanciest of accents, imaginable, and he talks on radio very effectively because he also wears a silk scarf all the time. It's true. I hang out with Rahim in DC. I know, let's called posh British accent, but Raheim does a great job. I was

glad he's able to fill in. He did it from Florida yesterday. I was in Florida over the weekend. I had a great time down in South Beach. Yeah that's right. I needed so everybody else in this town with let's go to the White House Correspondence dinner. I was like, nap, I don't think so, no White House Correspondence dinner for me. I'm gonna just go down to South Beach and enjoy the sights and some delicious food and some great weather. And I firmly stand behind my decision. It was the

right one. So there we go. Terry, listen to you every night often be a podcast. I was trying to comment on Roll Call. Has no one else made the comparison of Joe Biden and Michael Scott from the TV show The Office. Both are from Scranton, Pennsylvania, super awkward and unaware of how clueless they truly are. Shields Hi, Terry, Terry. I don't think I've never heard anybody else make that particular comparison, but I can appreciate that you are thinking

outside the box. Although Michael Scott, I think is more is certainly more humorous, and I would even argue more considerably more likable than Joe Biden. I think this whole likable Joe Biden thing is kind of a facade. I think he's a very kind of grinning cheshire cat style politician, you know, real, real classic smiles that you shakes your hand, glad hands, you kisses, the baby's head tells you what you want to hear, and then you know, up to the next one. So I am not impressed. I think

that Biden's going to flame out pretty quickly. I think his candidacy is not going to be what a lot of liberals are hoping it is. It's like they never learned the lesson Biden is right in the mold of Hillary twenty sixteen, John Carry two thousand and six, right or no two thousand and four. Sorry, not six not six seven, not six four John Carry in two thousand and four. These are not people who are inspiring. These are default establishment Democrat candidates, and that has not worked

out well for them. They need We'll see. Look, I don't. I also don't want to give the Democrats. You guys like Buck, shut up, don't give them any advice. I know it's true. I don't want to help them pick a better candidate either. I don't think that that makes sense for anybody so, or at least doesn't make sense for us. So we shall see. We'll see how it goes. I am not impressed by him, though, Sue, Right, Buck, do you have any influence over who takes your place

on Rising? When you were away I couldn't even finish listening to it because your substitute was such a poor representative of conservative views. I know the format is to be positive, but you're able to do that while still standing up against distortions and misrepresentations of the president. I'm still feeling hurry back, We'll sue, I'm back today, So that is the good news. The other answer to your question is no, I don't have any Rising is something that is not run by me. I'm a talent on

that radio. I run right radio. I get to make the make the final call as long as producer Mike says it's okay, as long as he gives me, you know, the atta boy, then then I can do it. But but other than the two of us, there's really nothing else. I mean, they let they let me run my own ship here, and it's very different on Rising. It's it's a big website, it's TV. You got a whole bunch of producers and everybody else gets to weigh in on things.

So there you go. Um, but I don't even know who. Honestly, I don't even know who filled in from when I'm gone because I was on the beach. I'll tell you guys this. I left my phone in the hotel when I went down to the beach, and it was great just just to go like four or five hours at a time, no no cell phone. I really recommend you do this because I realized when I was doing it that this is the first time in quite some time that I had done that. And at first you have

a little bit of phone fomo. You know, where's where's my phone? Well, I gotta grab my phone. Where's my phone? But then you recognize that you can live your life without having a pocket computer in your hand at all times. You can and enjoy yourself. You can listen to the ocean waves, you can enjoy conversation with friends, get some sun, go for a walk on the beach, drink a couple of margarita's, maybe three or four. All that can be done without that device in your hand all the time.

I think we're all becoming slaves to our little devices, and in media world, becoming slaves to social media too, which is the shame. I don't know how to get around it, but that's where it is. But Sue, thank you so much for writing in appreciate it. Adam writes Buck the line from Transformers is autobots transform and roll out, not autobots unite? You maybe cry out, ugh, shields high autobots transform and roll out? Huh, I guess it's not

autobots unite? What maybe it's Is it ThunderCats unite? No, it's ThunderCats ho right, mark your ThunderCats guy? Come on, I have no clue. You have no idea what I'm talking about? You all right? Fine? I remember ThunderCats. ThunderCats. Oh that's a great show back in the day. I love ThunderCats, ThunderCats Evening Book podcast Minion. Here, this is from Michael listening to Thursday Show. Just gotta answer the challenge.

The man that wrecked up a fake club at the Herald Club was Axel Foley, and he was speaking with the chief of the Bedhils Police Department. Boom moving Ninja status confirmed, she'll tieh well, Michael, indeed, boom and confirmed. Carrie, right, thank you for not praising the Book of Mormon show, Ugh from a Mormon. Yeah, you know, Carrie, I'm I'm all for humor. That's meant in good faith, and I you know, and I like edgy and I like pushing

the boundaries. I just in the Book of Mormon stuff, there's a lot of curse words in place of punchlines. In my opinion, I just didn't it wasn't my cup of tea. Wasn't my cup of tea. It was too much, too much of that for me. Jesse Rights, Hey, buck Love, the show had two questions for you on Friday. You were talking about how the left is trying to control

the conversation by controlling the language. So why don't we do the same and reject their definition and use our own, such as an assault weapon is only missiles and rockets instead of what they say. The other question is, are there any leftists you find to be intelligent that I can listen to see what their side of the argument is. Shields High Jesse. Two very interesting points questions from Jesse here, So let me try to take these and dive into

them a little bit. On the control of language, I would prefer that we just refuse to abandon the language that we already have and alter the language that we already have to suit leftist fancies, to suit the leftist agenda, because we don't have the same capabilities of megaphone dominance that the left does when it comes to the media academia, and so I just think that we're inherently going to be in a losing battle if we try to make

them use words, for example, that essentially concede the point in a debate before you've even had the debate, And that that's what the left is always trying to do. They want you to just admit that you're wrong by using words. You know, an undocumented immigrant, for example, they're just an immigrant without without the proper documentation. There's nothing bad about it, nothing illegal about it. You already said, they're just undocumented. Just give them some documents. What's the problem.

And this is true of so many different things. And it's also particularly true of pronoun usage. Now in the whole transgender discussion. If you are forced to bend the knee and say he when it's a she or she when it's a he, you've already conceded the point. Really after that, it's it's just a formality whether you agree or not, because you agree based on the language that you're using. And as to leftists that I think are worth listening to on the Russia collusion stuff, it's really

by topic more than by personality. I would say. On the Russia collusion stuff, I would say that you have Glenn Greenwald is very consistent on it and really takes the left to task. Michael Tracy, who is kind of a a He's a salty little fellow, not particularly friendly from my experience, but he's good on Russia collusion. I used to be a big fan of Christopher Hitchens writing, even though he's a militant atheist and or rabbit atheists,

whatever you want to call it. But he was great on radical Islam and great on the Clintons too, and there are some issues, and he's just a very very talented writer. I don't think that the left is a lot of people that are held up as great writers in the left now are just not very good writers. I don't know how to say it more than that. I mean, Michael Lewis is an incredibly talented storyteller and writer. His books are highly highly readable. He's very very good.

But he's you know, he's a leftist. He's a Democrat for sure. I have to think more about who else falls into that that category in terms of who's interesting to listen to and that will go through the topics and have a real discussion. There's very little of that on the left these days. It's it's not what sells. What sells is certainty in stupidity. What sells is Ocasio Cortez saying dumb things and people saying, yeah, that's right. She knows she's great. She doesn't have to like know

this stuff. She just feels and what she feels is true. Of course that is not true, but that is what people think. But I'll think more about any really worthwhile leftists these days. You know. Look, I mean there's a lot of I read The New York Times a lot. I mean, The New York Times has some excellent writers, though it's editorial writers. I don't think. Look, the New York Times is best most talented editorial writer is Ross Doubtfitt,

who is their conservative. So he's not particularly pro Trump conservative, but he is the New York Times a version of a conservative. He's the most skilled at a keyboard. And I've read a lot of New York you know, people like Charles Blow. I mean, he's just not a very good writer. It's just not I mean they can get mad at me for saying it or whatever. He's just not a very good writer. Tom Friedman is a very

overrated writer, just kind of mediocre. But you go through and there's there are some people that are very talented. But again, Doubtfit isn't isn't a leftist, So that doesn't really answer your question all that well, Tricia rights love your show, have a question on immigration, you know a Tricia, Actually I'm gonna come let me do We'll do a double instead of just running through this, let me do a double role call. We'll hit a quick pause. I'll

be right back. We'll finish this because I missed you guys yesterday. We'll finish this out. Stay with me, all right. So I'm finishing up a role call here because it's Tuesday, and isn't it tuesday? I almost got that wrong because I miss yesterday. And I told a friend of mine yesterday down in Florida, I do miss all of you, you know, even when I get a day off and i'm having I had a great day. I had a fantastic weekend, really really enjoyed it, and just it was awesome.

But great food, great company. But I just gotta tell you, I missed the show. When I'm not doing the shows, it's a problem. I'm not saying that I miss other work that I have to do, but I do miss the radio show. I do miss the radio show, all right, Trisia rights love the show. Well, thank you, Trisia love you too. Have a question or immigration, and I seriously wonder why this hasn't been done with the crazy, out

of control people coming to our border. Why doesn't the Trump administration just put a bunch of judges at the border and hear the so called asylum claims and then deport them right away. Second question, why don't they also do an operation with Ice and start supporting people whose date in court passed and they didn't show up. Curious for your opinion on these ideas well, Trisha, your first suggestion is pretty much what the administration wants to do

and it has been beginning to do. So you're right on target with that. They need a lot more of it. And keep in mind that whenever you're talking about judicial process, there'll be people that just try to abuse the process, meaning that they will take it upon themselves to just extend it out or find ways to make everything harder than it would otherwise be in order to just you know, use the seems in the system so that effectively people get to stay even when they're not supposed to stay.

So that will still even if you have judges there, they'll probably get you know, oh, I need to challenge this, or we need an appeal, or you know, whatever it may be. There'll be different things going on. And as to the deporting people that don't qualify for asylum, that absolutely should happen. But I actually made a prediction today on Rising that what you're going to see is the moment those numbers start to tick up, when they when they accelerate the process of hearing the asylum claims and

they really get a new groove. And I think they will be able to do this because they recognize it's a real it is a true national emergency. As they do that, and then it becomes clear to the Democrats and the left that you're going to have effectively a rolling mass deportation that's occurring of hundreds of thousands of people, then they're going to just try to put the brakes

on that too. And that's where you see that they really are open borders and this is all in bad faith and their argument that oh, they're legally allowed to claim asylum. Yeah, but then they're legally also mandated to be deported if they don't get the asylum, they're gonna they only want the you know, they only support the legality of claiming asylum. They don't support the legality of what happens if you don't get it. You'll see that with Democrats because they don't they don't debate this in

good faith. They just don't number twenty three Sexton. Nice job, Buck, you won supercross on the Freedom Bike. According a guy named Mark, there's a young man who is a supercross motorbike racer whose last name is Sexton. Sexton's are pretty common name folks for those who don't know. Just because I like to always do a little bit of fun side note education In the show, a sexton is the well, the grave digger, and the offer offering collector in a church.

He also tries to usually sweep things out, keep it clean. He's kind of like the church custodian. So that's right, I'm a church janitor. That's what a sexton is, is it not a sex tant t? A NT that is for astronomical nautical usage, trying to figure out where you are using the horizon and the stars or some other nonsense like that. So there you have a team back in action, back here in the swamp. It is going to be a momentous week, that much I can assure you of. There's going to be a lot of stuff

going on. Had some meetings today that leave me to believe that there's going to be some fireworks on Capitol Hill later this week, so we'll get talk about that. If you have any thoughts, suggestions, opinions, Facebook dot com, slash buck sex in the place to send them to me. I'm here every day this week, team, so get excited. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Shield's High
