Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and Load Michael
Veri Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
The US is the first time in the history of
the world where a government was organized with a constitution
laying out the rules that the individual was supreme and dominant.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
And that is what led to the US becoming the.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Greatest country ever because it unleashed people to be the
best they could be, unlike it had ever happened. That's
American exceptionalism.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Our resolve is unbroken and our purpose is unchanged to
delivery government that serves the American people better than ever before.
To win with every single facet. We're going to win
so much. You may even get tired of winning. And
you say, please, please, it's too much winning. We can't
take it anymore. This to President, it's too much, and
(01:01):
I'll say, no, it isn't. We have to keep winning.
We have to win more. We're gonna win more. We're
gonna win so much.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
You never did think that it ever.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
A bear good tings.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
You never get they would ever get together, would they
would laugh again?
Speaker 6 (01:22):
It is a tall, crowd city build on rocks stronger
than oceans, wind swept, god blessed, and teeming with people
of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city
with cre ports that hunged with commerce and creativity. And
if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors,
(01:43):
and the doors were open to anyone with the wills
and the heart to get there. That's how I saw
it and see it still.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
And we will restore and renovate our nations once great cities, making.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Them safe, clean, and beautiful again.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
And that includes our nation's capitating the.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Hill.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
We will die on deportation. Democrats are locking arms in
defiance over Trump's plan for mass deportation. That's the mandate, folks,
There's no question. Every poll reflects it. But they are
going to extract an emotional toll because they don't think
(02:29):
we're committed Democrats. Strategist Julie Razinski Raginsky not that it matters,
was on CNN when she said she would physically stop
the military from deporting illegals.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
I'd like to watch that promise you with every fiber
of my being, because I'll probably be one of those
people that if anybody comes to these people and tries
to drag them out by force, there will be protests
of people like me, American citizens who are going to
stand there and do everything possible to prevent these women
and children, which is all who these people are?
Speaker 9 (03:03):
Stop?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
How do you know who?
Speaker 6 (03:07):
Stop?
Speaker 8 (03:07):
I'm sorry, I live next to these people. I can
tell you there are women and their children. Are there
terrorists among them? I don't know, but I can tell
you that. But I can tell you let me Okay,
But what I'm telling you right now, practically speaking, is
that there will be people, American citizens who will prevent
these little kids from being dragged out of these shelters.
There are And what's going to happen to these people?
(03:28):
What is going to happen to the military when the
military opens fire on us?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
On crazy We're laying down a rabbit hole there. I
suggest you not be in the middle of obstructing an
officer of the law from doing their job. That's what
I suggest. Oh, Michael, that's just one crazy gal on
television talking tough. By the way, she'd be the last
one to be stopping anybody. No actual Democrats talking about
(03:55):
not cooperating with Ice, right yep. First up exhibit today
the Mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu.
Speaker 8 (04:03):
What will Boston's response be if these mass deportations take place.
Speaker 10 (04:06):
Yeah, Look, elections have consequences, and the federal government is
responsible for a certain set of actions and cities. No
individual city can reverse or override some parts of that.
But what we can do is make sure that we
are doing our part to protect our residents in every
possible way, that we are not cooperating with those efforts
(04:26):
that actually threaten the safety of everyone by causing widespread
fear and having large scale economic impact.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Arizona's governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs says the same thing as
Michelle Woo.
Speaker 11 (04:41):
Hearing about the Trump administration's plans for border security, the
emphasis really is on this mass deportation. What we saw
here today is the actual work happening at our ports
of entry that are interdicting drugs, keeping those drugs off
our streets, and we need more of that to secure
(05:01):
the border here.
Speaker 12 (05:03):
As you know, Trump has promised that he would carry
out mass deportations on day one of his presidency. Your
state is estimated to have a quarter of a million
undocumented immigrants. Some Democrats in your state, like Phoenix Mayor
Kate Diego, say that she wouldn't allow police to be
used to carry out this plan. Would you as governor,
allow state police and National Guard to carry out mass deportations.
Speaker 11 (05:29):
We will not be participating in misguided efforts that harm
our communities. And I've been incredibly clear about that.
Speaker 12 (05:38):
So you disagree with mass deportations and the fact that
the president elects says that's what he's going to be
working on day one, Well.
Speaker 11 (05:47):
I think that those efforts are going to divert needed
resources that we need here on these drug interdiction and
smuggling and trafficking efforts to keep harm out of our communities.
We need those resources here, and the coming here today
and seeing this operation firsthand just underscores that that that
(06:11):
working in partnership here is how we can best secure
the border.
Speaker 12 (06:15):
What would worry you the most, Governor about mass deportations.
Speaker 11 (06:19):
Well, I think the diversion of law enforcement from their
their the the work that they do every day to
keep our community safe. People hiding in fear. We saw
that under previous Just.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Say it out loud. We brought these people here as slaves,
as slaves were once brought brought here. We've brought these
people here to keep them poor and voting for Democrats.
We've scared them to death of the Republicans. We've given
them every governmental benefit we can to keep them voting
(07:00):
Democrats so that we can stay in power. Just call
it what it is. Tom Holman, the man for the job,
was on Newsmax when he was asked about Boston's mayor
Michelle Woo's comments. He made the point, and he's right,
she's not very smart.
Speaker 13 (07:19):
Depending our residence every possible way, but she's not very smart.
I'll give her that because I just what I just
said is President Trump's going to prioritize public safety threats.
One mayor or governor doesn't want public safety threats to
other communities. That's your number one responsibilities to protect your communities.
And that's exactly what we're going to do. So she
helps us, she gets the hell out of the way,
(07:40):
because they're going to do it. And look, there's a
clear line here, and they can't cross the clear line.
I'll suggest she read titled Eate United States Cold thirteen
twenty four to reply that says, you know you can't
harbor conceal anyway in from front of lawenforce now, so
I hope she.
Speaker 14 (07:54):
Don't cross that line.
Speaker 13 (07:55):
They cannot cooperate, but there are certain laws in place
that they can't cross.
Speaker 14 (08:00):
I hope she doesn't cross it.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I do too. But this is just like them cheating
on the election. They cheated in Harris County, cheated in Pennsylvania.
At some point they're challenging you. It's like the people
that go into Walgreens and steal the whole story. At
some point you're gonna have to confront it. Could you
do maybe audibly laugh when I tell a joke like that,
so I know you thought it was funny, Michael Berry,
(08:23):
Oh no, I won't do that. It's too much for
a moment. She want to go. That was so funny,
fast approaching very difficult moment when you watch what's happening
in America's big cities, particularly in California and Seattle Minneapolis,
where you've got folks walking into a Walgreens with a
(08:43):
bag and clearing off entire shelves into that bag and
walking out. In the past, the store would stop them,
and then there were lawsuits by the people who were stopped,
and those people would sue the CBS or the Walgreens
and imagine winning that case, right, but they would, and
(09:04):
there will be lots and lots of these cases. They
would set up the case they wanted to sue, They
wanted to get knocked down stealing something, and then their
lawyer would say, this man's shoulder was shattered over an
eight dollars bottle of shampoo a company that makes a
billion dollars year. Well, ye, but there's a lot of theft.
So then they would only call the cops. And now
they don't even bother to do that. But employees still
(09:28):
find this disgusting and they'll stop them, and those employees
will immediately be fired. But there comes a point when
you're being stolen blind and you've put everything behind the plastic,
and you made it very difficult for the people who
were following the law. At some point, you either have
to close the store down, which they've done a lot of,
(09:48):
or you have to confront these things. And if you're
a police officer, there comes a point where you have
to confront the rioter, you have to confront the Black
Lives Matter, you have to confront the guy who says
he's not going back to prison, but he's just committed
a crime. And you remember Michael Brown, the gentle giant,
tried to kill Darren Wilson, the police officer there comes
a point where they give you no choice. You have
(10:10):
to confront them, and they're probably going to put you
into a situation where you have to kill them. Many
times that will be the case, and then Black Lives
Matter will swoop in and make you the demon. This
is what's happening with Daniel Penney in New York, where
all the witnesses say he was using reasonable force to
get this guy to stop attacking everyone on the subway system,
(10:30):
and yet they're charging him with murder. This is what
they do. At some point. When you walked up on
George Floyd, if you'd known his history, this is a
guy with a long, long trail of felonies who was
in the middle of an overdose which he probably dropped
when the officers came upon him. And remember the reason
(10:53):
the officers came upon him was he was in the
middle of a commission of a crime, passing counterfeit bills.
And he's said just as he had said when he
was arrested a month earlier and was hospitalized. He said,
I've just been shot, or I was shot protected my mother,
and he starts somebody's mother and then he can't breathe
he's had an overdose. Well, his mother had died years before.
(11:17):
He's a con man. But if you're the officers that
are on the scene, this is the collateral damage you suffer.
It's a no win situation. So the polls show that
Americans want illegal aliens who are here to be deported.
Comes out to about seventy percent if you average the
polls out. Sometimes it goes even higher, including Democrats. They
want them to deport it. It's what they voted for.
(11:40):
Trump was clear on that. And the reason he was
clear on that many people felt that he should not
talk about mass deportitions, but he knew he had to
do that before he won to be able to claim
a mandate. Otherwise they would say, voters didn't vote for
you for that. They voted for you for this or
this or this. They voted for you to stop inflation,
(12:00):
for deportation. So here is Illinois Governor JB. Pritzker. There's
going to be lawfair. They're going to fight this in
the courts. He says, Oh, it's unconstitutional, which it's not.
Speaker 15 (12:12):
We, of course, are deeply concerned about you know, the
President of the United States calling out military inside the
United States where people are peaceful, even if there may
be people who are undocumented. But the idea of calling out,
you know, the army into the domestic confines of the
United States is seems uncalled for and may in fact
(12:33):
be unconstitutional and the illegal.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Bring our military back from around the world, Bring our
dollars home from Ukraine, bring our assets and equipment home.
What we didn't leave for the Taliban, what we still
have around the world, bring it back, and secure our
border and escort people who broke into our country out
of this country. It's just a simple That's what it
(12:58):
means to be a sovereign nation. Read end of story.
There's going to be some sad sob stories, but we
didn't cause those sad sob stories. Tom Holman, who will
be the borders are, was on Fox News and Tom
Holman understands, this is what it means. You're going to
have to do.
Speaker 14 (13:16):
This Ben childman trafficking in the United States.
Speaker 13 (13:18):
This administration released them do on vettert sponsors and they
can't find three hundred thousand and based on my three
and a half decades, some of these chilrenforced labor were
already fund some enforced labor, some are enforced sex trafficking.
Speaker 14 (13:28):
Some of them want pedophiles. We need to save these children.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
That's gonna be a third rapt But what do you
do on January twentieth at noon?
Speaker 16 (13:32):
Do you said, ICE agents out across the country to
sanctuary cities to pick people up or I mean, how
do you target this logistically?
Speaker 9 (13:38):
How does this.
Speaker 13 (13:39):
Operation for We already were already working on a plane.
I'll be going down to Marrowatto this week to put
the final touches on plan. But yeah, we're going to
take the handcuffs self ICE. I just know what they're
looking for. They just have me be able to arrest them.
Because secretor of my ORCHIS has told him to tone
down the arrest now. He said, you can't arrest anybody,
let's say, make convics of a serious crime. We know
right now looking at the data from the Trump administration,
the BIDE administration to removal of criminals Alans has decreased
(14:01):
seventy four percent. So we have plenty of targets all
other arrest I just know us where they are. So yeah,
we're gonna take ancufs out of ICE, going do the job,
secure the country, protect the American communities, and rest the
bad guys.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
First, I'm getting reports that a number of people are
self deporting already. It's amazing how that works. Some of
them are fleeing to Canada. Good Canada's problem. Then that
was a question of resources. Will Tom Holman have the
resources to pull this off? Because it will require resources.
Speaker 9 (14:28):
This is what Politico wrote about it.
Speaker 16 (14:29):
Finding detaining and removing those people would be resource intensive,
said John Sandwig, acting Director Device from twenty thirteen to
twenty fourteen. Detentionion capacity alone would be a costly an
immediate challenge. Lawmakers need to appropriate the funding, and even
if they do, the administration we need to hire that
and train more officers.
Speaker 9 (14:45):
No easy feed.
Speaker 16 (14:46):
The new Congress takes over on January the third, will
you be working with them in preparation taking over the
reins of the.
Speaker 13 (14:51):
Twenty We have to because we had the resources to
do the job. So I've been asked a thousand times
how many people can you remove the first year?
Speaker 14 (14:58):
Well? How many agents do I have?
Speaker 13 (15:00):
Can we bring we heart agents back the ones that
we turn bringing back and we hurt them. How many
buses do I have? How much money will have for airplanes?
Speaker 14 (15:07):
Right? Candod assist it cause deod can kick off our plate.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Think about this, if we had the money for eighty
seven thousand new IRS agents to harass us. They're all trained,
let's just whip them over. They can be La Miga
can get to work. Stop harassing us and start harassing
the illegal leader. And Michael Marry show there is a
job to do, there is a mandate to do it.
(15:38):
It is the right thing to do. The President wants
to do it, and he's putting the right people in
place to do it, and it must be done, and
it must be done from day one. You cannot delay.
They will throw everything in your way to stop you.
Tom Holman, the man for the job, said he would
(15:59):
finish the job. They started reminding us they had historically
low numbers of border crossings and we're going back to that.
Speaker 9 (16:08):
So this is going to be part of a larger program.
Speaker 16 (16:11):
Ramping up deportations is one leg of the stool ending
parole from people from Cuba, Haiten, Nicaraguo and Venezuela, the
controversial CHNV program, rolling back the maw Orcist memo, deactivating
the CBP one app, ramping up immigration diplomacy also and
reinstating to remain in Mexico.
Speaker 9 (16:30):
Illegal border crossings.
Speaker 16 (16:31):
Right now are about a little less than half of
where they were at the peak. What's your target in
terms of illegal immigration? I know you'd like to get
to zero.
Speaker 13 (16:40):
The border cross not really done that much, right They
created a tube buck is a CHNV program, The CBP
one app.
Speaker 14 (16:46):
Sounds population bill aliens.
Speaker 13 (16:48):
Whether they're throwing thousands through the CBP one app called
on a legal pathway, which is not they're throwing thousands
through the CCHNV. So if you have the CHNV the
CBP one app, what the orbitral still catching?
Speaker 14 (16:59):
There's still historic numbers.
Speaker 13 (17:00):
But we're going to shut these two programs down and
then and we're going to move some numbers even lower.
So what's your goal? Do you have a target? Secure
the border, get back to it. The Trump administration Trump ministrant.
Trump administrators have the lowest illeg immigration in forty five
years illeg Immergrason, about ninety your numbers.
Speaker 16 (17:18):
Twenty twenty they were they were down twenty thousand a month.
Speaker 13 (17:21):
We're going to do better, going to finis the job
we started. We had a president Trump had again unprecedented
success years. Forty five year low illegram grace on ninety percent.
We need to secure that border fall. So in addition
to everything you mentioned, we got to continue building the wall.
Wherever they built the wall, a wall worse the illegram
gras drop, it will drug flow drop, and mostly it
(17:42):
saves lives. Women and children can't get over that wall.
So they're going to a place where it's not a wall.
And what's waiting for him the men and women of
the border chow who's going to take care of the
medical needs first?
Speaker 1 (17:51):
The deep state put Tulsea Gabbard, former vice chair of
the State of the National Democrat Party. The deep state
put her on a list, a terror watch list. She
started noticing when she was traveling over the last year
(18:13):
because she wasn't on board with Kamala and Biden. This
is a former member of our Armed services, former Democrat congressman,
a woman who has served with security clearance, and she
noticed that when she was flying it felt like there
(18:34):
were people who were following her. And then she started
studying her ticket and she noticed that on her flight
ticket there were codes that were showing up that weren't
there before. She dug in and found out she was
on a terror watch list. So she started asking questions,
(18:58):
and yes, in fact, she had been placed on a
terror watch list, okay by whom? And no one would answer.
So who has the power to put you on a
terror watch list? And on what basis? So this is
what they're going to do over the next four years.
(19:20):
They're going to claim that the men committed sex acts,
ray child sex, trafficking, you name it, just as they've
done all along, just as they did to Clarence Thomas,
Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump, now Pete Hegseath, now Matt Gates.
And they're going to claim that Toolesey Gabbert is a
Russian asset. Let's get the former chairman of the Democrat
(19:42):
Party when Toolsey was the vice chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz,
the human Lizard. Let's see what she had to say
on MSNBC. Play your part, Debbie, read your lines.
Speaker 17 (19:52):
Telsey Gabbert is someone who has met with war criminals,
violated the Department of States, and secretly clandestinely went to
Syria and met with Asad who gasped and attacked his
own people with chemical weapons. She's considered to be essentially
by most, by most assessments, a Russian asset. And would
(20:17):
be the most is that you consider Oh yes, there's
no question.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Okay, pretty powerful statement. Used to they just call you
a racist. Now they claim that Vladimir Putin is controlling you.
Who else have they done that for? Well, remember Congressman
Michael McCall was head of Home Land Security Committee and
(20:45):
he went on Tucker Carlson Show and Tucker was on
Fox and he said he was told by high ranking
folks in the intelligence community. Afterwards, he said he was
told in whispered tones, don't hang out with Tucker. He's
under a surveillance. He's a Why was he under surveillance?
(21:07):
He's on Fox News's a he's a Russian asset. Putin
controls him. And Tucker Carlson has a very shrill laugh
when something is absurd. He goes very high pitched. It's hilarious,
comes from the gut, you can feel it. And he
laughed at this, and McCall said he was told to
(21:30):
stay away from him. So you got members of Congress
being told not to talk to Tucker Carlson because he
is controlled by Putin. So who runs our government? If
the deep state is telling the elected officials who are
(21:51):
supposed to be our government. You can't talk to him.
Who's telling the deep state what to do? Is there
any doubt they're in control of Joe Biden? Is there
any doubt they were controlling the Epstein process. The former
head of thee of the CIA, John Brennan, an absolutely monstrous,
(22:12):
evil human being, was on MSNBC with Jen Pisaki and
he too, he says, Oh, she's controlled by the Russians.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Let me just start with Tulcy Gabbert, because you served
as a CI director for four years, what would having
her in charge or in the role of Director of
National Intelligence mean for the intelligence apparatus of the US government.
Speaker 18 (22:35):
I think there's so much uncertainty about what miss Cabert
would bring to the job. As you pointed out, she
has been an apologist, sort of poutine mischarle hassade. So
many of her substant comments as well as previous actions,
have called into question whether or not she has a
good understanding of global politics in the.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
US role there.
Speaker 18 (22:51):
But also she doesn't have any experience in intelligence.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
She has never served in the intelligence.
Speaker 18 (22:56):
Community, and the Director of National Intelligence is somebody who
has since sometimes of the eighteen departments and agencies and
needs to orchestrate these agencies so that they collaborate, so
that they coordinate, so that they're able to pursue the
national's crety priorities in an effective fashion. So they need
to have some understanding of the human intelligence, technical signals intelligence,
(23:17):
and geospatial intelligence and other.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Types of things, and she has none of that.
Speaker 18 (23:20):
And third, she doesn't have the executive leadership experience of
running a large organization. And under the Director of National
Intelligence comes to the National counterterorsm Center, National counter Intelligence Center,
Count of Proliferation, Belign Influencer Center as well. So there's
just a lot of responsibilities, and so that people, the
professionals that are in these eighteen intelligence agencies, want to
(23:41):
have confidence that the person who sits on top of them,
and that person, by.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Law is the President's principal intelligence.
Speaker 18 (23:48):
Advisor, is going to be carrying out the duties in
a qualified way, but also in a political objective fashion.
And I think there are serious questions that have been
raised at Miss Gabett's ability to do that, based on
her lack of experience, as well as her very questionable
comments that she has made and statements trafficking and conspiracy theories.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Michael Berry Show. But do you see what we're doing here.
Clarence Thomas couldn't be on the Supreme Court because a
law professor said that he had sexually harassed her. He
called it a high tech lynching. Then Brat Kavanaugh couldn't
(24:34):
be on the Supreme Court because he had raped this blazy, forward,
crazy woman who came forward. She remembered it distinctly. She
couldn't remember how she got to the party. She couldn't
remember how she got home. There wasn't a single person
at the party who remembered seeing her there, and she
couldn't remember the name of a single person who was there.
(24:57):
Her own father came forward and said, she's nuts, she's
made it all up. But just before Brett Kavanaugh was
to be confirmed as a Supreme Court justice, all of
this was tracked out, made up. You see, men are
all sexual monsters in lesson until they're Harvey Weinstein, Bill Clinton,
(25:25):
Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Gates. This is what they do. This
is a deep state plant. I mean, they're not even
discreet about it anymore. They did it to Trump, dragged
him to court. They convicted him thirty four times thirty
four felony convictions. Looks like the Atlanta cases over now
(25:47):
Jack Smith has dropped his Casey, they're also insurrectionists. They're
all out to destroy the country. That's Trump's doing that
as well. But the sex thing, oh that's a good one.
We can we can do the sex one because nobody
can deny you did this, You dirty, dirty bastard, who
did this? So we've got Trump, We've got Clarence Thomas,
(26:12):
got Brett Kavanaugh. This is just the same guy's same tricks.
I read a lot about espionage. I read a lot
about the intelligence communities. They're not particularly creative. They get
a little playbook and they run it again and again
and again. They've got reporters. They can drop this stuff
with Jim Comey's folks. We're sharing with the New York
(26:37):
Times the sorts of things that were built for them
by Hillary Clinton's Steele dossier. Because remember we had a
former British spy. Oh, the British spies have inside information.
We had the British spy and the Steel dossier. Oh,
the dossier he had a docum. Oh, my goodness, is
we're getting inside stuff here? This is it? And then
(27:00):
we find out that Fusion Gps paid for it, and
then we find out that Fusion Gps was paid for
by Hillary's lawyers, and then we trace it to the
fact that Hillary paid her lawyers to pay Fusion Gps
to pay the Steel, the Christopher Steel for a supposed
dossier that they then handed to the media, to the FBI,
(27:23):
that the FBI then handed to the media. And what
do you know. We've got Trump is controlled by Putin.
We got a former spy who says, so you haven't
forgotten all this? Have you? Surely haven't forgotten all this?
Speaker 10 (27:38):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yes, it was all there. And then eventually we find
out Christopher Steele when brought to court in England, it
is a criminal act to libel someone. So for him
to say that this report was truthful, knowing that it
(27:58):
wasn't get him in big trouble. So the Steele dossier, well,
the news didn't make it on this side of the
Atlantic too loud. He repudiated every bit of it, said
it was all made up. Remember Trump had golden showers
with prostitutes and hotels in Russia in exactly the bed
where Barack Obama had slept. Because he's a pervert and
(28:21):
a creep and a weirdo and a harasser and a Nazi.
Don't forget that, and he's controlled by Putin. All of
that was discredited and debunked, but it did the job
at the time. And they're not done Pete Hegseth. We
can't let him take over the Defense Department because all
(28:45):
of these people, Matt Gates, Donald Trump, they're gonna blow
open the doors. These people's crimes are going to be exposed.
When these guys with an axe to grind, Well see
Gabbard coming into the intelligence community and saying, all right,
here's the memo, who, here's who. Here's the person who
(29:09):
said put a person on her, treat her like a terrorist.
These people have a lot to lose, folks, a lot
to lose. So CNN has to take out heg Seth
because he can't be Secretary of Defense. Won't be allowed.
So they sent reporter Kyung Law on assignment to investigate
(29:31):
the allegations of sexual misconduct against Pete Hegseth.
Speaker 19 (29:36):
Pete Hegsath is Trump's pick to run the Pentagon. CNN
has learned Hegseeth paid the woman who made the sexual
assault allegations in a settlement Kung Lawes out front now
and Kung, I know you have new reporting about the
alleged assault and the woman who accused heg Seth of
attacking her.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Tell me what you've just learned.
Speaker 7 (29:55):
Well, Aaron, we did meet with the alleged victim and
we did speak with her, but it was very briefly.
We do want to stress that CNN is not identifying
this woman because she is the alleged victim of a
sexual assault. But in that brief conversation, she was visibly
distraught at the mention of Hegseth's name. She said that
(30:16):
she didn't know what she could say, and before saying anything,
she had to consult with her attorney. And we have
not heard back from her since that first meeting that
I had with her. Now, Pete Hegset's attorney is telling
CNN that this was not an assault at all, that
this was a consensual act. He described that Hegseth had
(30:38):
paid this woman and that there was a confidentiality clause
in addition to the settlement payment.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
So what are we talking about.
Speaker 7 (30:46):
This was an event that happened on October the early
morning hours of October eighth, twenty seventeen. I want you to
take a look at these photos. These are Facebook photos
that were posted by the California Federation of Republican Women.
There's also a three page memo that describes what happened
on this evening. It was given to the Trump team
and it was written by the friend of an alleged victim.
(31:08):
This is a memo that CNN has obtained. We could
not independently verify the allegations as laid out in this memo,
again written by a friend of the alleged victim. The
memo describes the evening this way that Hegseth was at
the hotel bar. He became pushy with two women at
the bar, who then reached out to the woman who
had become this alleged victim. She tried to mediate the
(31:31):
situation and at that point her memory becomes hazy.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
In the evening.
Speaker 7 (31:36):
The next morning, she had a hazy memory of being raped.
She told her husband. They went to the hospital and
she took a rape kit. They called the police. It
was four days after this event on in the early
morning hours of October eight, twenty seventeen. The police ultimately
did not file charges against hag Seth, and we did
(31:57):
request a report, the full police report. Erin the police
would not make that public.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Karen okay, So his accuser says she started getting hazy
at the bar, woke up the next day feeling hazy.
She goes home and tells her husband that story. They
go to the hospital, she takes a rape kit. The
police do not move forward. CNN sent a reporter out
to run down this story. But remember how they ignored
(32:24):
the story that Doug Imhoff hit his girlfriend on multiple occasions.
Remember that. How about all the stuff with Tim Waltz
that they didn't cover. How about Bill Clinton's cover ups?
How about Al Frankins. How about all the things they
don't cover. How about Hunter Biden's laptop and everything that
(32:48):
was in it, including video evidence. These people are not
to be trusted. They're frauds. Never ever believe anything they say.
They tell you. This guy is blue. Go check for yourself.
That's the only way to destroy these people. They are
destroying themselves.
