Speaker 1 (00:05):
I'm going to tell you a story, and it's one
that is becoming all too normal. You may know the
name that I'm about to say. It's a name of
a reporter, a reporter who spent many years on Fox
and then went to CBS. This reporter, by the name
of Catherine Heritage, is a amazing reporter that actually does

(00:27):
real journalism.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
One of the things that she did.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
At CBS News was she reported often on the corruption
of the Biden crime family. All of a sudden, CBS
Nude News had some layoffs, and the layoffs happened to
hit their best reporter, their DC reporter, their political reporter,
their reporter, a true journalist that told you what was

(00:51):
happening when it came to corruption. Well after she got
quote laid off, because that's how you make it seem
like there's nothing faarius going on. She has now testified
that CBS News not only locked her out of the building,
but CBS News also seized all of her files and

(01:14):
said that she was working with sources which they then
had control of, who they were to expose government corruption.
I want to play for you what she had to say,
and again I go back to what I was saying
about Catherine a moment ago. Catherine is a journalist. She's
a journalist that is not pushing a narrative. She is
a journalist that pushes the facts. And she was exposing

(01:39):
the truth on the Biden crime family, Hunter Biden, the
lies of the Biden crime family, and just how involved
Joe Biden was with the family's business corruption. This is
the first time that she's been able to speak publicly
since she was locked out of the building at CBS News,
since all of her files were seized by a at

(02:00):
CBS stas. I'm sorry. This is what communists do, right,
this is what Marxists do. This is what socialists do.
This is what they would do when they're spying on
you in other countries like Russia or Venezuela or Cuba.
And CBS News did it to their own journalists in
the United States of America because apparently she was exposing
government corruption on the people that you're not supposed to

(02:22):
expose it on, right, Democrats, hard core liberals, and the
President of the United States of America. Listen to what
she had to say today.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
As you know, in February, I was held in contempt
of court for refusing to disclose my confidential sources on
a national security story. I think my current situation can
help put the importance of the Press Act into context.
One of our children recently asked me if I would
go to jail, if we would lose our house, and

(02:53):
if we would lose our family savings to protect my
reporting sources. I wanted to answer that in this United States,
where we say we value democracy and the role of
a vibrant and free press, that it was impossible, but
I could.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Not offer that assurance.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
The Bipartisan Press Act, which came out of this House Committee,
would put an end to the sort of legal jeopardy
that I have experienced firsthand in the federal courts, and
without the legislation, more journalists will run to the uncertainty
of the contempt gauntlet in the future. This legislation will
provide protections for every working journalist in the United States

(03:31):
now and for the next generation. The legislation provides strong
protections at the federal level for reporters and their sources.
It would block litigants and federal government from prying into
a reporter's files except when there's an imminent threat of violence,
including terrorism and in defamation cases. At the state level,
similar rules are already in place to protect press freedom.

(03:54):
It is my sincere hope that the passage of the
Press Act will provide similar protection at the federal level.
I hope that I am the last journalist who has
to spend two years in the federal courts fighting to
protect my confidential sources. My current situation arises from a
Privacy Act lawsuit.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
I am only a witness in the case.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
It is not common for these cases to reach the
stage of holding a reporter in contempt, but when such
cases happen, they have profound consequences, impacting every journalist in
the United States. Forcing a reporter to disclose confidential sources
would have a crippling effect on investigative journalism because without

(04:39):
reliable assurances of confidentiality, sources will.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Not come forward.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
The First Amendment provides protections for the press because an
informed electorate is at the foundation of our democracy. If
con forces are not protected, I fear investigative journalism is dead.
Each day I feel the weight of that responsibility. As
you know, I was held in contempt of court for

(05:05):
upholding the basic journalistic principle of maintaining the pledge of
confidentiality to my sources. I have complete respect for the
federal court and the judicial process, and I'm not here
to litigate the case. It will play out before the
appellate court in Washington, d c. But the fact that
I have been fighting in the courts for two years

(05:25):
and that I am now facing potentially crippling fines of
eight hundred dollars a day to protect my reporting sources
underscores the vital importance of the Press Act.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
I want to just pause there, and I want you
to think about what this reporter who's now again trying
to protect her sources, exposing government corruption, being locked out
of her own office by CBS News and having her
reporting file sees, and now having the threat of financial

(05:58):
ruin at eight hundred dollars a day day, being held
in contempt for refusing to give up her sources, which
is her right to do in a free press in America.
There is something that is happening now. We saw this
with an undercover CIA FBI guy a few days ago
talking about how, yeah, they find people, they put them

(06:20):
on their hit lists, and they basically try to put
them into financial ruin. We've seen this in real time
against Donald Trump. You look at President Donald Trump, and
what did the Democrats say? Okay, we're afraid we can't
beat him, so we could bankrupt him. Maybe we can
just lock him up and put him in jail. Putting

(06:42):
and locking up your political opponents is what Vladimir Putin does.
And then, by the way, he'll kill you if that
doesn't work. He just did it. He just killed his
opposition leader. Dictators and tyrants kill people. They lock people up,
They put them in jail to silence them, and then
they take their longings from them. Now are We're supposed

(07:03):
to be a free country, But based on what we're
witnessing right now, we are no longer a free country.
We are no longer a country where you have the
right to protect your witnesses. And as a as a journalist,
by the way, and I'm not let me rephrase that,
I'm not a journalist. I'm a I'm a commentator. But
I have people that come to me as a whistleblower

(07:25):
that I will protect and I shouldn't have to worry
that I'm going to go to jail. I shouldn't and
they shouldn't have to worry. And I want you to
also think about what messages sends two whistleblowers. You look
at the irs whistleblowers that came out against the Biden families,
and many of them were actually liberal saying what we
just witnessed with the Biden family is is total corruption

(07:47):
and cover up at the highest levels. Look at the
people that came forward and have exposed a sweetheart deal
of the Biden crime family which not only was going
to let Joe Biden off the hook, but it was
going to let Hunter Biden off the hook. And then
it was going to give him immunity for any future
prosecutions for any crimes that were committed by him in
the past. That deal fell apart because it was exposed

(08:09):
and there was a judge that was at least honest
enough to say, this is insane and no, this is
not ideal that I will accept from the federal government.
But what we are now witnessing in real time is
that if there is someone that they don't like that
they want a silence, the government can spy on you.
They can set you up or as it was described

(08:29):
by that undercovered person the other day, and give you
a nudge, right, They can then tie you up in litigation,
they can financially bankrupt you. And that's no different than
what this reporter, catherin Heritage is testifying. She's saying, I
was protecting my confidential sources, and now they're holding me

(08:51):
in contempt. And now they're saying because I was exposing
and had multiple sources that said they were concerned that
by working with me to expose corruption and misconct they
would be identified and exposed. They're also sending a message, well, hey,
don't take the risk, sources, because eventually we'll get to
you too, because we're going to get to the reporter.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
There's a lot of reporters out there.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
That would not stand by this hardcore like Catherine has
done to protect their witnesses. There's a lot of reporters
that wouldn't have the cojones and to stand up to
a corrupt government system. But the message now is clear,
and why I wanted you to hear what Catherine just
had to say is that in America today, the message

(09:39):
that's being sent now by federal prosecutors who are holding
her in contempt, who are going to be charging her
eight hundred dollars a day, is that if you are
another reporter out there, you better pay attention, right if
you're a conservative out there, so dif what they're doing
with Donald Trump, you better pay attention. How many people
can can withstand what Donald Trump has gone through? I mean,

(10:01):
luckily Donald Trump is a man that has money. Could
I withstand what he's gone through financially? No, I would
be in ruins a lot faster. And he was almost
in financial ruins. And they were trying to do it
and they're still trying to do it right. But the
message are sending us clear. Okay, maybe Catherine can can
stand up to us, but you can't. Little reporter in Washington,
d c. Or a little reporter in Paduca, Conduck. You're

(10:24):
a little reporter in Memphis, Tennessee, or a little reporter
in San Antonio, Texas, or or somewhere on the border
that's gonna expose government corruption.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
At the border. You can't do it. We'll put you
in financial ruin.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
And oh, by the way, here is the message to
the people that are thinking about coming forward and giving
you this information.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
We're gonna find you too.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
You're not really going to be silent, You're not really
going to be anonymous sources. No, no, No, we're gonna
identify you. The government's gonna identify you, and we're gonna
come after you. We're gonna expose you. We're gonna make
your life hell. So don't come out and be a
source about government corruption. Don't expose what you're saying that's
being done that is wrong, because if.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
You do, we will find you.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
We will come after the person you're telling, and they're
gonna roll on you and give us the files that
we need. That is what Catherine is saying happen to her,
and this is what is happening to other journalists, and
they're saying. Basically, journalists I know are saying, I can't
get people in the government to talk to me anymore
when it comes to government corruption. Now they'll leak to

(11:33):
me right things that won't get them in trouble, But
outside of that, they're not gonna expose government corruption. The
reason why they're not going to do it is because
it can put them in financial ruin.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
And if they do right, if they do.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
We're gonna know who you are anyway. We're gonna know
who you are, and we're gonna come after you no
matter what. Listen to this part of what Catherine had
to say.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
When you go through major life events as I have
in recent weeks, losing your job, losing your company health insurance,
having your reporting files seized by your former employer and
being held in contempt.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
Of court gives you clarity.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
The First Amendment, the protection of confidential sources, and a
free press are my guiding principles.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
They are my north star.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
When I was laid off in February, an incident reinforced
in my mind the importance.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Of protecting confidential sources.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
CBS News locked me out of the building and seized
hundreds of pages of my reporting files, including confidential source information.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Seized CBS News.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
The scumbags at CBS News seized her files, her confidential sources,
locked out of the building, and sees hundreds of pages
of my reporting files, including confidential source information. All because
she was an actual journalist.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's not a hack.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
All because they wanted to make it clear that you
can't really expose the Biden crime family or any other
liberals that are corrupt in our government, because if you do,
we will fire the reporter and then we will let
the Feds know who it was you were talking to.
Imagine being one of those confidential sources that is risking
it all to expose government corruption. And then you find

(13:20):
out the reporter you're talking to has been fired or
let go, and all of the documents that she said
trust me now are in the hands of that corrupt organization,
CBS News, and more than likely are now in the
hands of the federal government. Well, there's a clear message now,

(13:40):
not only if you're a confidential source and we want
to find out who you are, we'll just go after
the reporter and force them in a submission. Now she
is facing fines of eight hundred dollars a day for
contempt of court charges against her for not giving up
her sources. But now we found out what happened with
CBS News, We now know the meanists broadcasting network. CBS

(14:03):
News locked her out of the building, seized all of
her files, and said that she was working with sources
to expose government corruption. Much of that corruption was the
Biden crime family. CBS News' decision to seize my reporting
records crossed a red line, she said that she believed
should never be crossed by any media organization. But guess
what now, if you're a confidential source, are you going

(14:26):
to take the risk and listen to the last thing.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
She says.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
The litigation and being held in contempt have taken a
tool on me and my career.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
This is not a battle you can fight alone.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
I am grateful for the support of fellow journalists and
multiple First Amendment organizations, including the Reporter's Committee for Press Freedom,
the Freedom of the Press Foundation, the Coalition for Women
in Journalism, the Night First Amendment Institute, the Society of
Professional Journalists, as well as the Columbia Journalism School, of

(15:00):
which I am a graduate. I have also been fortunate
to have the support from my former employer as I
continue to fight this case.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
Not many journalists could count on a former.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Employer, in this case, Fox News, to support a costly
and vigorous defense of the First Amendment. That is why
the Press Act comes at the right time, when independent
journalism and news platforms are expanding opportunities for reporting diverse
voices that strengthen our democracy. I know I joined many

(15:30):
journalists who are encouraged by the recent comments of the
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who said he hopes to
have the legislation through the Senate and on the President's desk.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
This year.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
I deeply appreciate the committee's commitment to this legislation and
holding this public hearing.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
You look at what she's done, and I want to
be clear, this woman is amazing. But how many other
journalists don't have what she has a former employer and
Fox News channel that will stand by you in this
case that she's involved in now that could bankrupt her.
And how many journalists don't have all those organizations, including
journalism schools that will stand behind you because you've been

(16:09):
such a rock star reporter for decades. And then what
reporter out there now is going to ever trust trust
CBS News ever again? I think what we now know
and I think it's pretty clear, is it. Catherine Herriage
is an individual that was brave enough to do her

(16:30):
job the right way. But if you're at CBS News now,
are you going to be as brave as her?

Speaker 5 (16:37):
No?

Speaker 1 (16:37):
Because CBS News sent a very clear message, we don't
do journalism here. We do propaganda here. We are a
machine of the state. CBS News is state media who's
ever in charge on the left and the government. That's

(16:58):
what we report on, That's who we report two. CBS
News doesn't do journalism journalism is and I've been saying
this for a long time, and people say to me, oh,
show me proof that there is bias media, right, that
there's a bias media out there, and we want to
see the.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Proof of that. Show me the proof. Here's the proof, folks.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Another example example nine five hundred and fifty three in
the last year of bias in the media. This is
the bias in the media. This is what happens when
it comes to bias in the media. And what CBS
News has said is, Hey, we work for the Democratic Party.

(17:37):
We are state media of the Biden and if you
call us and you tell us that we've got a
reporter that we need to get rid of, we'll get
rid of them.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
And if you need their.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Files to find out who's leaking and who's talking inside
the government, we'll get those for you too. That is
CBS News seizing er files. This is something that would
have been on a mass.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Five years ago.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
But when Donald Trump broke Washington and when he broke
the media in twenty sixteen, these are the repercussions for that. Okay,
these are the repercussions for exactly that. This is the
fallout of Joe Biden or I should say if Donald Trump,

(18:24):
excuse me, winning in sixteen, Donald Trump broke the media,
Donald Trump broke the deep state, and now they're fighting
back like never before. And this is how they're doing it.
She had her stuff locked up and they said you're
out of here, and she wasn't allowed to take her
stuff with her, and then they rummaged through her stuff.

(18:44):
I mean, if I do my show in a studio
and I have my locker and my stuff's locked up
and then they have access to it, doesn't matter. I mean,
this goes back to ethics and journalism like CBS News,
and what they just did is corruption at the highest level,

(19:04):
seizing her files and then and then rummaging through her
reporting and finding out who she was talking to, and
god knows who else they gave all.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
That information to. This is not her fault.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
There's also a lot of information that's on a laptop, right,
I mean, are on your computer that is locked. But
if they own that computer, they see they can seize
that as well. And again this is about intimidation, saying
to every journalists out there, hey, don't do a really
good job, just do an average job. Don't don't push

(19:39):
too many buttons. Okay, just just just push one or
two buttons, just kind of tell the stories. And if
there's something that's smaller, little, then you can do that, Okay,
But but don't really go all in.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
And whatever you.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
Do, don't challenge the most powerful areas or leaders in
our government if they are Democrats. That is the message
that CBS News just sent. And they sent not just
that message, but a message to every other journalist. Imagine
if you're an independent journalist. Imagine if you're like a

(20:17):
small journalist. Imagine if you're an up and coming journalist
at an organization. Now, can you imagine how many stories
are going to be silenced because of what just happened
at CBS News. Because what they're gonna say is if
I if I'm risking my livelihood to basically be a whistleblower,
or I'm risking my career by helping you expose what

(20:41):
I'm witnessing. Okay, and CBS News will do this to
their top political reporter. What are the chances tomorrow I'm
gonna give this story to someone that's that's a lot smaller,
slim to none. Yes, Well, and that was the betfort
of us not having computers back then because everything was

(21:02):
on paper. Look, I think you can certainly go back
to that if that, but I don't think that fixes
the problem. And there's also the other thing is right now,
how much is the government just flat out spying on
people when they want to know what they're doing. There
doesn't seem to be any repercussions for spying. Are listening
in or wire tapping or doing anything to any person

(21:24):
now that you want to get intel out of the
government is no longer of the people for the people,
by the people. It is a government that is now
taking over. I've said this on the show before and
I'll say it again. Listen to me when I tell
you this. The Democratic Party is dead. They are no
longer a democratic party. They are Marxists, they are socialists,

(21:47):
and they are communists, and they are masquer rating Okay,
they are masquerating around as Democrats. They are no longer democrats.
They are Marxist, they are socialists, they are communists, and
they are not here to help you. They are Marxist,

(22:09):
they are socialists, they are communists, and they want a
government that controls the press the same way it does
in Russia or Cuba.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Or Venezuela or.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
China, and they want a KGB force in America, which
is what they've created with a deep state that is
constantly reminding the public and the workers of the government,
you better be quiet and do what we tell you
to do, and if you don't, we'll come after you.
And hell, we're so powerful now, we'll even lock up
a former president of the United States of America and

(22:41):
Donald Trump. And if you think you can withstand financially
what it's going to cost to defend yourself, well, hey,
look at Donald Trump. We've almost taken everything from him.
That's the message, do you I mean, I'll say one
last thing about this, Donald Trump. Do you understand he
was hours away from and being in financial ruin because

(23:03):
of a corrupt system in New York. He was literally
hours away from having his property seized from him in
the most incredible display of government corruption that I've seen
in my entire lifetime, where they were like, we are
just going to take everything from you all because you're

(23:25):
running for president and we're afraid we can't beat you
on election day, so we're going to destroy your life.
We are going to destroy everything that you've done, and
we're going to take it all from you. That is
what our federal government and that is what our state

(23:46):
governments are now saying to anyone that is powerful or
strong and standing up for democracy, standing up for freedom
of speech, standing up for freedom expression, standing up for
First and Second Amendment rights.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
And if you're a journalist and you get.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
A phone call and it's from somebody high up in
our government that says, I need to tell you about corruption,
and I need to know that you're gonna protect me
no matter what. The days of Woodward and Bernstein are over.
They will seize your files, and the government will come
in and they will find out who you are, and
then they will come after you and they may even
lock you up. And oh, by the way, journalists, we'll

(24:21):
cost you eight.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
Hundred dollars a day in contempt.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
If you don't give us what we tell you, which
is give us your source, and then we'll maybe get
you fired or quote laid off. Now I go back
to what I said about Donald Trump and what Donald
Trump went through and what he's going through. Now, this
is a game plan, and it's one of it full
blown intimidation.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
This is what, by the way, they did with a
lot of.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
People that were in and around January the sixth who
were not insurrectionists. Okay, there was people I could watch
them and see them on video that cross the line.
There are people that attack lawn Horsement on January the sixth,
and they should be held accountable for what they did.
They should be held accountable. But there was a lot

(25:09):
of peaceful protesters that were there. And you have the
right to protest in a free country. But we're not
a free country anymore. And that's also the signal that
our deep state and our government is sending to us.
If we don't like you, if you get out of line,
if you say too much, if you do too much,
we are then going to come after you. Let me
give you another example of the corruption that I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
It has nothing to.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Do with with with with with Catherine and CBS News
or even Donald Trump. But did you see what Vice
President Kamala Harris said about the new ATF rule forcing
background checks on private gun sales.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
Did you see this?

Speaker 1 (25:47):
She's excited because this is another example of the deep state.
This is another example of government total control. Listen to
what she said at the White House Office.

Speaker 6 (25:54):
Hey, everybody, so as the head of the White House
Office of Gun Violence Prevention. I'm very i to tell
you that as of today, we are closing the gun
show loophole. Basically, we are requiring that anybody who sells
guns as a dealer has to do background checks. And
what we know this is going to save lives. So
it's an important step forward. We got more to do.

(26:16):
We need to pass an assault weapons ban, we need
red flag laws and universal background checks.

Speaker 5 (26:22):
But good news to report today.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
Take care, good news to report today.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
By the way, I'm one of those that's warned about
the slippery slope, you know, the slippery slope where you
give an inch and they'll take a mile. You notice
how fast the slippery slope here became reality, Like, hey,
we just want to let you know, is the woman
who's taking away America's guns. Were getting even better at this,
We're getting closer to accomplishing this. We are excited at

(26:49):
this new ATIF rule forcing background checks some private gun sales.
So I'm very excited to tell you that today we
are closing the gun show loophole, as she describes it.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
And then says, don't worry now, what's next?

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Right, slippery slope We're gonna go after those assault were rifles.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
That's what we're gonna do next.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
Hey, we're so excited to tell you these assault rifles
they're coming next, folks were coming for you. I never
thought I would see a day in America where I
would watch my rights be taken away so quickly. And
there's so many people that are just sitting on their

(27:26):
aas's doing nothing about it.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
And the tests for this was COVID.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
There was a certain point where the lockdowns weren't about
not knowing what to do or the fear of the unknown.
It was about what can we get away with and
how far can we take people's freedoms and rights. It
was a test case and what we can get away with?
And what they realized was the government realized at all
different levels, the government realized and the corrupt people in

(28:02):
our government realize there are so many Americans that are
just so stupid, that are so obsessed with staring into
their cell phones and not paying attention to what's happening
around them and not caring that their rights are being.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Just absolutely destroyed.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
There are so many people that are just put their
heads in the sand and are incredibly incompetent, that are
incredibly stupid, and that don't care that their rights are
being taken away from them, that they can get away
with doing the things that they're now getting away with.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
I go back to COVID. I warned you of this.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
There was a certain moment during COVID and the lockdowns
that was not about your safety. It was about will
they say no to this? Remember when they told you
couldn't go to church, and they were like, oh my gosh, guys.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
We can. We can control these people with everything. Rememberhen
they told you, let's try this.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
So we're gonna tell people they gotta shut down their
businesses and go bankrupt.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
The people didn't even fight back when we told them
that we're gonna shut down their businesses.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
They're gonna go bankrupt. This is amazing. What else can
we get away with?

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Can we tell them that their kids can't get an education?

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Guys? We just told people that they could.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
No longer educate their children in school, and they went
along with it.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
All right.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Now we're gonna tell people they got to stand six
feet apart from one another. Let's see if that works.
Oh my gosh, they'll do that too. They'll stand six
feet apart. Then we'll tell them they can't eat out
at restaurants, and let's see if we.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
Can get away with that. Oh my gosh, we got
away with that too.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Then we'll tell people that they can't even sit with
their family members, they don't live in the same household
while they're out eating at thirty percent an occupancy in
a restaurant where they must put their mask on in
between SIPs, in between bites, and they'll do that too.
What they figured out was that the American people right now,
we live in such a in a world where so

(30:15):
many people are so selfish that they're willing to just
stare at their phone and be hypnotized by technology and
just saying Okay, I mean, hey, I've got my phone,
I've got I've got Instagram, I've got Facebook, I've got Twitter.
I'm on my phone. I'm not talking to people anymore.
I'm not having conversations with one another. Oh wait, you're

(30:36):
here to raid my house. Okay, Well I've got nothing
to hide, so it's so big deal raid my house?
Oh you wanna you wanna okay, wait, you want to
take my guns away from me? Okay, well that's fine.
Like I mean, I okay, do that too. You want
to take away my business? Oh okay, you can take
away my business. Oh wait, you're trying to lock up
the president of the United States in America.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
I'm in my phone. They understand that we live in
a society now where we are so stupid, we are
so distracted by TikTok in Instagram and x and everything else,
that we are so wrapped up in these in the
in these meaningless memes of life, that no one is
noticing except for a few of us that listen to

(31:17):
this show and that actually understand what's happening. That we
are giving away, that we're not giving away. They're taking
away every one of our basic constitutional rights, and they're
doing it right before our very eyes, and no one
seems to care. Can you imagine what this country would
have done if Woodward and Bernstein would have been let
go by the Washington Posts.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Can you imagine?

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Can you imagine if they would have been fired in
their files would have been seized, or when the Pentagon
papers were going down, if they're if the files would
have been seized and the sources would have been exposed
can you imagine what would have happened if we had
a deep state that have turned I will go back
to something else that's interesting that that was mentioned recently,

(32:06):
Like there's real evidence and and questions that should be
asked about what our government did getting rid of JFK.
And and there was like a lot of evidence that
came out not that long ago, and no one seemed
to care that it seems that the government may have
been involved in in his assassination. Like where are the

(32:28):
big articles being written on that? Where's the big investigations
in that?

Speaker 2 (32:33):
Like RK.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
I'll give him credit, like he's brought that up. He's
a conspiracy theorist guy in general. But when you look
at some of those issues, you're like, what, like, are
are we just going to sit here with our heads
in the sand until we wake up one day and
we don't own our houses anymore? There's no such thing
as property rights, there's no such thing as constitutional rights.

(32:57):
There's no such thing as a second Amendment anymore, there's
no such thing as first Amendment anymore. There's no such
thing as is journalism anymore? Like, are we gonna wake
up one day and witness what will that moment be
like where we can lock up anybody for any reason,

(33:17):
we can bankrupt them, the government can come in and
quote nudge you in a certain direction, and all this happens,
and everybody's fine with it because apparently that's now where
we are, and it's happening at the highest levels in
front of us, and there doesn't seem to be genuine and.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Real, authentic outrage.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
And not only are they doing it, they're doing it
with videos at the White House, Kama Harris, you know,
celebrating the ATIP rule forcing background checks, right, she says,
And I guess what the assault weapons ban is next? Like,
we're not done there, there's a slippery slip. We're coming after.

Speaker 6 (33:54):
Them background checks and what we know this is gonna
save lives.

Speaker 5 (33:58):
So it's an important step forward. We got more to do.

Speaker 6 (34:01):
We need to pass an assault weapons van, we need
red flag laws and universal background checks.

Speaker 5 (34:06):
But good news to report today. Take care.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
I love how they say it's gonna save lives.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
You notice that's their mantra now for anything they want
to do to take away your rights. Hey, you gotta
stand six f A part. It's gonna save lives. Hey,
you gotta get the Jab, it's gonna save lives. Hey,
you gotta shut down your business. It's gonna save lives. Hey,
you gotta not.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Worship God at church.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
You gotta and and gather where two or more together
gonna save lives. Meanwhile, we demand that you give us
all your money so it can go to Ukraine and
the corruption in Ukraine, because that's the war we're in
favor of. Oh, and we got to turn our back
on on the Jews in Israel. And and somehow the
terrorists who killed all the innocent Jews that were caught

(34:47):
on video that was celebrated by the left, we'll defend them.
Now we have congresswomen at events where they're chanting death
to America.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
I don't know if you saw that.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
With it was it Rashid to lead this week where
they're at our event and they're they're chanting death to America.
And she was asked by Today, She's like, oh, this
is just corruption at Fox News. I don't answer Fox
News's questions when they asked me about me not condemning
at my own event people chanting death to America.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
No, we don't, we don't. We don't talk about that.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
I don't answer questions of Fox News because no one
else in the government seems to be asking that question. No,
no one else in the government or I should say,
in the media. Let me rephrase that is asking that question.
Where where's CBS News walking up to Rashid to leave,
going Hey, just gotta I gotta ask you a question.

(35:38):
You had people that's supporting you at your event chanting
death to America like that, that's something that we might
want to talk about. Nah, we don't talk about that.
Why would we talk about that?

Speaker 2 (35:49):
Why?

Speaker 1 (35:49):
Why on earth would we would we talk about that?
There's no reason to bring that up. Make sure you
