Episode Transcript

(00:03):
What we need is more common sense, common breaking down the world's nonsense about
how American common sense. We'll seeus through with the common sense of Houston.
I'm just pro common sense for Houston. From Houston Where dot Com.

(00:24):
This is the Jimmy Barrett Show,brought to you by viewind dot Com.
Now here's Jimmy Barrett. Hey,Jimmy Barrett. It's Friday. Yes,
we mentioned to Friday. Anybody raiseyour hand if you stayed up last night
to watch the NFL draft? CanCan somebody explain me why we do that?
I don't I don't know why whatit is about the NFL Draft that

(00:47):
that gets me excited. I don'tknow if it's just I'm I'm, you
know, just one of those peoplewho's into the intrigue of who's gonna move
up and who's gonna move down,and which teams are gonna get who.
But but I'm I'm one of thosecrazy people that, you know, a
month or so before the NFL Draft, I start watching all these projections that

(01:07):
the so called experts bank about whichpicks are going to which teams, and
who's going to trade up and who'sgoing to go down, and you know,
what almost always happens. None ofthem are right. None of them
are right. It's like the HurricanePrediction Center coming out and telling you,
well, we're gonna have twenty sixnamed storms this year. It's gonna be
a really, really bad year.And then you get to the end of
the hurricane season and you had tenand most of them missed the United States.

(01:33):
It's one of those things that eventhough you know the prediction is not
going to be accurate, we seemto be really really curious in watching what's
going on with that. I'm notquite sure why that is, but it
seems to me that that's how thatworks. But anyway, if you're interested,
and I'll probably be watching tonight isRound two and three starting at seven
pm. If it's something you wantto check out, it's better than watching

(01:56):
the astros right now, let's putit that way. That's way too painful
for me to is to watch theastros. Okay, I can't wait to
share this with you. I don'tknow if you've heard this story or not.
This this I get the For somereason, I get the biggest kick
out of this. I'm not quingI get yes, I do know why
I do know why I get thebiggest kick out of the story. Did
you hear about the Secret Service agent, one of the Secret Service agents assigned

(02:22):
to Vice President Kabala Harris, gettinginvolved in a fight with a fellow Secret
Service agent. No idea what thefight was about. You know, the
press is being very very well.First of all, the mainstream media is
is not reporting it as usual,and the other publications that are reporting it

(02:43):
are doing it very very delicately.And I think the reason why they're doing
it so delicately is it involves aminority. No, seriously, it involves
a minority, and I think that'swhy they're doing it that way. Now
what the fight was about, wedon't know, and we'll probably never find
out. All we know is thatit was bad enough where she had to
be handcuffedy, it was a female, the female going off on the mail,

(03:07):
and she had to be handcuffed.Anyway, none of those details are
being reported by the mainstream media byany stretch of the imagination. Judge Janine
Piro, however, did manage toget some of the details. Here's what
she says about what she knows aboutthis fight. This is what happened,
Okay, there was another person onthe Secret Service detail. By the way,
the Vice President's detail is where allthe they put all the problem children.

(03:30):
Okay, is that a fact?That is a fact. You could
write it down. And apparently shewas having an argument with another person on
the Secret Service. She grabbed hisphone and started removing apps from the phone.
Why was there a relationship there?I don't know, and I will
not say out. And so shegives the phone back and the guy says

(03:51):
nothing. Nothing, He just moveson. Then she starts chest bumping it.
She bunched out another agent. Now, she said that her hire was
part of a diversity, equity andinclusion push. Yeah, Greg, it
responds to years of staff shortages andmay have required the agency to lower it's
one strict employment standards. I'm readingthat. I'm not saying it now.

(04:15):
I also understand from someone in theknow that when she was training in twenty
sixteen, she heard voices and everybodyignored it. All. Right, now
that we found out a little bitmore about that, let's do this.
There's one thing I've learned about aboutfighting, and it involves females, is
that females fight dirty. Now I'mimagining this, right, I'm imagining this

(04:41):
fight that's being described, and imaginethere's hair pulling and scratching. Judge Piro
said that there was a chest bumpinggoing on. I mean, just all
kinds of things that really kind ofmake you wonder, you know, what
in the world is going on withthis thing. We know it was a

(05:02):
diversity equity and inclusion program, sothat tells us probably it's an African American
female, right, we know itwas a woman, and it's probably fair
to assume that it's a black womanif it involves diversity, equity and inclusion,
which is fine. But if youget a black woman really angry,
if you've seen black women fight eachother, if you get a black woman

(05:26):
really angry, I mean they fightreally really dirty women in general, fight
dirty Black women in particular, andwhen they get really angry. I mean.
The reason why I know a littlebit about this is because my wife
works in the public school system andand you know, I've heard I've had
fights described to me before and rathervivid detail, and there's always hair pulling

(05:51):
and scratching, and you know,getting down on the floor and rolling around
involved with these things. So veryeasy for these things to get out of
control. Now, what I don'tunderstand is why it would be difficult for
Secret Service to find people who wantto work for them. I mean,
how much money does your average SecretService aagory make. They make pretty good

(06:12):
money, don't they. I wouldthink there's a pretty good bang job.
And because it's a government job,I'm sure there are great benefits. So
I'm not quite sure what the problemis as far as finding, you know,
find you know, finding somebody qualifiedto do that position. But evidently
the least the excuse was they couldn'tfind somebody, so they had to lower

(06:33):
their standards. We're seeing this allacross government, are we not. We're
seeing this in the military where theycan't recruit enough people, therefore they have
to look at lowering standards. Youknow, we're seeing DEI programs all through
the government where we're not hiring peoplenecessarily because they're they're competent to do the
job, but we're hiring them becausethey fill a quota. You can't get

(06:55):
the right people for the right jobswhen the number one priority is it did
you be of a certain race ora certain sex. At some point we've
got to get back to getting theright people for the job if we want
to have these jobs. Sturre notright. Okay, quick little break back
with more in the moment, JimmyBaird Show. Here at a nine fifty
KPRC. All right back KPRC,Jimmy Baird Show on the Frontie. We're

(07:39):
moving on to uh. I guesswe should do a little Trump update.
We really haven't done much of anythingin a Trump update manner this week.
On the show. Yesterday, TheNational inquires David Pecker. No, yea,
I know what you're thinking now,that really is his name? I
agree, my name last name wasPecker. I changed my name too.

(08:03):
I don't know why you would gothrough life. I mean, the other
thing worse would be if his namewas Richard Richard Pecker. I mean,
can you think of a worse namethan that? At least the name of
David. At least he's got thatmuch going for him. Then again,
I guess if maybe that's why heended up in the business he's in,
you know, running a national gossipmagazine. So David Pecker's testifying and he's

(08:24):
basically saying that I've done this fora lot of people. He's buried stories
for old Schwarzenegger. He's buried storiesfor Tiger Woods and indicated that he is
a favorite to Trump. He buriedthe Stormy Daniels story, but that doesn't
go about proving anything as far asbeing done. The reason why the prosecution

(08:48):
was trying to get him to testifyto this is because they're trying to make
the case. They're trying desperately tomake the case that basically we're doing it
for election purposes, right that Trumpgot him to David Pecker to bury the
story so they wouldn't hurt his reelection chances. And you know so we've

(09:11):
already heard. I mean, there'sa lot of reasons. If you are
a prominent businessman, there's a lotof reasons why you would want to bury
a story like the Stormy Daniel story. First of all, you're married.
Second of all, you've got kids, and maybe most importantly of all,
you've got a business, and atleast a part of your business is dependent
upon your reputation. So if yourreputation gets tarnished, then it makes it

(09:35):
more difficult to make money with yourbusiness. None of those things have to
do with being elected president of theUnited States. So we'll bring back We
already had her in the first segmenttalking about the Secret Service ation. But
here is Judge Janine Piro once again, and she's going to talk about the
aspects of the case. In Pecker'stestimony, prosecution is alleging that this is
a conspiracy, which means it involvesmore than two people to promote or effect

(09:58):
an election by unlawful means. Anyprosecutor knows that the most important witness is
the first witness. David Pecker wasnot a significant witness for the prosecution.
And I'll tell you why, becausethere is no crime. An NDA is
something that celebrities engage in all thetime. People in this science community and

(10:20):
the tech community signed NDAs all thetime. This is just a way of
doing business. So if you lookat the business record in question, it
says for legal services. Okay,the money is to calling for legal services.
So if they are trying to sayno is really for a federal election,
then why is it that the FEDSdidn't prosecute Why is it that the

(10:43):
Fed's looked at this and made adecision not to cover it. And what
I don't like about what happened todaywas that Pecker said he assumed it was
for the campaign, and we knowPecker didn't have any conversation with Trump about
this. There is no diversation,so that he assumed that I would have

(11:03):
been on my feet and objected.But this judge isn't going to sustain a
rightful objection by Donald Trump. Andfinally, how is it that Pecker is
going forward alleging all of this whenhe said nothing, A non disclosure,
a noncompete. I mean, thatis something that is part of the law.
I'll tell you why Pecker assigned animmunity agreement. And these prosecutors are

(11:28):
so tough, whether it's Colangelo fromthe Department of Justice and Joe Biden sent
down to the local DA to help. Becker knows if he goes one line
away from what he's supposed to say, his butt is going to be shipped
to the state prison. And that'swhy this whole thing is so absurd.
It's a nothing burger. That's prettygood analysis, right there. Nothing burger

(11:50):
with double cheese. Well, itis it is. I mean, she's
right, I mean it's a nondisclosure agreement. Those happen all the time
for a variety of different reasons,mainly so that you don't get embarrassed or
because you know somebody's threatening to sueyou or whatever, and you're you're just
trying to make the problem go away. Famous people do that all the time.
They make problems go away by payingpeople off. That's the beauty.

(12:13):
One of the beauties of being somebodywho's rich is that you can actually afford
to pay people off so you don'thave your reputation tarnished. No big deal.
It's it's interesting too that there's alwaysbeen more for Maybe this is something
about where we're at as a society, you know, as far as morality
goes, is that the bigger dealwas was it was never about whether Trump

(12:35):
had an affair with Stormy Daniels ordidn't have an affair. Nobody cares about
this stuff anymore, thank you,Bill Clinton. Well, I didn't have
sexual relations with that woman. Imean ever since then, nobody cares about
that stuff. Nobody does. Youknow, nobody cares about sexual morality,

(12:56):
or faithfulness or any of those anyof those other things that we used to
care about. It Maybe, youknow, maybe that's not such a horrible
thing, but I would like tothink we would still care about something like
this about railroading somebody, which wedon't seem to care about enough. And
I mean I shouldn't say that manyI know you care, and I know
many Americans do care and know thatthis is a bunch of bs. They

(13:20):
just don't know what they can doabout it. All right, let's get
some more analysis here, constitucial lawexperts, legal expert Jonathan Turley and Carrie
Urbane or Bond I'm not sure howshe pronounces her last name on Fox talking
about the testimony. Well, Ithink there were points in this argument that
should be viewed as quite positive forthe Trump team. First of all,

(13:43):
you had roughly four justices referring tosending this back for further deliberations. If
they do that, it's hard toimagine the trial judge getting a trial before
the election, and if Trump isreelected, you might not have any trial
at all. But the argument,and along the lines of what many of
us had predicted, that is thatjustices seemed equally uncomfortable with the sweeping arguments

(14:05):
of the Trump team and the sweepingdecision by the d C Circuit. I
thought the real haymaker of the argumentwas delivered by Chief Justice John Roberts,
who was openly mocking of the dC Circuit which had this awful standard where
they said, well, a presidentcan be prosecuted effectively when he's prosecuted.

(14:26):
That they had this line that suggestedthat the fact of prosecution meant that the
acts could be prosecuted, and ChiefJustice Robbers legitimately said, but what type
of standard is that? I mean, you know, don't we have to
have something more. All of thosecomments would suggest that there are justices sort

(14:46):
of groping in the dark here fora middle road where there might be some
immunity for public acts official acts,but not for private acts. I was
struck by the I thought, extremepositions of both sides. Who have Donald
Trump who was arguing absolute immunity forall official acts from criminal prosecution for all

(15:07):
official acts, and then you havethe Department of Justice arguing zero immunity.
And I thought to myself, well, how can a president function if they
have no immunity whatsoever from criminal prosecutionfor their official acts. And you know
Brett Kavanaugh, who I worked forwhen he was going when he was going
through his confirmation process, I thoughthe raised some very interesting points. He

(15:28):
talked about how troubled he was forthe trajectory of the American presidency if they
were to side with the Department ofJustice's approach, which is this, you
know, zero immunity, this posture. And you know, I was also
struck by DOJ's argument that, well, don't worry about it because prosecutions are
not politically motivated. We take oathsabout that kind of stuff. And I

(15:50):
thought, how can you possibly saythat given what we are all watching happen
in New York. And secondly,the person who made that argument would on
Special Counsel Bob Muller's team, whichwe all know what that was a two
year, thirty five million dollar investigationthat was driven by politics and fail.

(16:11):
Yeah, I apologize. I didn'tdo a very good job of setting that
up because I be honest with you, there's so many Trump Court cases.
Sometimes I keep truck that's that's theother Trump case that's going on right now,
although Trump's not there because he's stuckin New York. And that is
the case in front of the USSupreme Court, and presidential immunity as long
as we brought presidential community, andwe might as well keep on that for
a second. So the question isis how far reaching is presidential immunity If

(16:40):
you're a president of the United States, are you are you immune from anything
you do, immune from prosecuting,prosecution, anything that you do while you're
president of the United States. AndI think what they're trying to say is
or what the Supreme Court was trying, They're trying to kind of thread the
needle on this one, which isgoing to be hard to do. There

(17:03):
are things that a president does thatare in the line of duty part of
being president of the United States,an official duty, if you will,
and then there are things that theydo in private that you wouldn't think would
be in the line of duty.I mean, are you in the are
you in the line of duty?Are you an official? Are you officially

(17:25):
on the clock twenty four to seven? Is everything you do as person of
the United States covered under presidential immunityor not? And that's what I think
what they're what they're trying to sayis is that there's there's some things you
do that are you know, it'sofficial things based on you know, your
your status as president of the UnitedStates, and there are things you do
as a private citizen and you can'tbe held you can't claim immunity for things

(17:49):
you do as a private citizen.Well, that's what they end up ruling
in this, or if they sendit back to the lower court, then
we're going to be right back atit again, trying to redefine or defined
exactly what official duty constitutes, whatmakes something an official duty, and what
makes something not an official duty.Good luck with that one. That's gonna

(18:11):
be a mess. All right,We're gonna take a quick little break.
You're on this Friday. Back withmore in a moment, Jimmy Barrett Show.
You're on a nine fifty k PRCfinal safely coming up. You're on

(18:34):
AM nine fifty k PRC Jimmy BarredShow on a Friday. This has to
do. This actually happened the otherday, and we really didn't comment on
it the other day, so wemight as well get to it now.
And maybe the reason why I didn'tcommented on on this the other day is
because, to be honest with you, it's it's become standard operating procedure.

(18:55):
This is this has become the normalin the life of President Joe Biden.
That you know, this is notthe first time that he has read something
off the teleprompter that were instructions andand and and and wasn't a part of
what he was going to say.The thing that strikes me about Joe Biden

(19:17):
and the teleprompter is, I mean, you you've got to be especially for
somebody who uses the teleprompter all thetime, you've got to be pretty far
gone if you can't just read offthe teleprompter. You know what they for
example, you know, having havingdone a little TV news in the day,
you know all the all the newscastersare reading off of a teleprompter.
And what happens with the teleprompter it'llscroll through at an appropriate speed the things

(19:44):
you're supposed to be saying, andin different type and usually in parenthesis will
be things like stop, pause,whatever it is they want you to do.
And these things are so rehearsed.With President Biden in this he's giving
a speech and the audience that isthere for the speech has been instructed to

(20:08):
when the president pauses, this iswhen we want you to chant four more
years, four more years. Exceptexcept Biden reading off the telepropter, can't
keep it straight and gives the instruction, which I think threw the crowd off
so making Kelly on her podcast washaving a little fun. But here's what
mag and Kelly had to say aboutthis whole thing. Imagine what we can

(20:30):
do next four more years? Oh, oh my god, four more years?
Pause? Pause, And when theWhite House transcription guy, god loved
this poor slob who knows what he'shad to go through. They changed it

(20:56):
to unintelligible. They refused to writepause, sir, we know what is
it was. It was very clear, he said. Pause. He embarrassed
himself again and he cannot be savedby the White House transcription guy. Sarah,
I'll start with you on it.I really think this is the kind
of thing that will horrify and stick. I agree, And I mean,

(21:18):
look, we have watched gaff aftergaff after gaff with Joe Biden throughout these
three and a half years. Andeven I, as critical as I am
of Joe Biden and as aware asI am that this is basically a weekend
at Bernie's presidency, even I waslike, I still cannot believe this happened.
I saw it yesterday afternoon, andeven in the evening, I'm like,
I still cannot believe what I justwatched here. This man has been

(21:41):
in public service for what forty fiftyyears, and he still cannot read a
teleprompter. It also can't be loston everyone that the four more years chance
was clearly completely staged because they wantedhim to pause, Because they couldn't trust
the audience to be that enthusiastic,They had to map it all out.
Unfortunately, they overestimated Joe Biden's abilityto read from a teleprompter, which I'm

(22:04):
sure we've all read from. It'svery clear when they want you to pause,
it's written differently in the prompter.There's no reason for him to make
this mistake other than the fact thatthe man is half dead. That's kind
of harsh. Well, he mightbe, and technically it may not be
correct. He may be more thanhalf dead. Is rapidly becoming weekend at

(22:26):
Bernie's territory. But but I mean, seriously, you're surprised, Sarah,
you're surprised, You're not surprised.Nobody's surprised. He's been doing this for
years now, He's been doing thisthroughout his presidency. What do you mean
you're surprised, You're not surprised,and his supporters don't care because of Trump

(22:48):
but there's Trump. And maybe there'sanother reason why, you know, they're
willing to allow this man to continueto embarrass himself is because they see what's
happening with support even in a placelike New York, where of course he's
not getting a fair trial, butin New York, where you know,

(23:08):
you've got plenty of people who areanti Trump for sure, but you know
what, the working men and womenin New York City are supportive. And
I thought it was very interesting thatthere are some observers are saying, you
know what, he's now ten percentagepoint seems like a long ways away,
but Biden only has a ten percentagepoint lead in New York State. Now,

(23:30):
it's very very rare that they votefor anybody who's not a Democrat.
I mean extremely rare. The lastpresidential candidate who won the state of New
York that was not a Democrat wasRonald Reagan. And the reason why Ronald
Reagan wanted is because the economy wasso bad that working men and women members

(23:51):
of the unions supported Ronald Reagan becausethey sense that their jobs were going to
go away, that they weren't goingto be able to make a living.
And there's a lot of working peoplein New York who says that now too.
Here is the head of the steamFitters Local six thirty eight in New
York. I'm not quite sure wherethe steamfitter is, but they have about

(24:12):
nine thousand members. His name isBob Bartel. Here he is talking about
how the membership supports Trump not Biden. It was great to see the president
come in and engaging with the bluecollar worker of New York City. We
basically built New York. The unionmovement has made the middle class, and

(24:33):
we are very patriotic union and weare pro America. So my members right
now, I put out a pollin my union. President Trump is leading
Joe Biden three to one on mypresidential poll out of my nine thousand members.
Right now, we are very tiredof the situation with groceries, inflation,

(24:56):
gas prices, illegal immigration, crime, living it every day in New
York City. So is there pressurefrom union heads to vote a certain way?
Well, yeah, I'm probably gonnaget a lot of phone calls after
this interview. But like I've toldother people, I don't work for my
international union. I work for mymembers. I represent my members, and

(25:18):
I wish every politician that was electedto any office would remember they work for
their constituents that vote for them.They don't work for themselves. I see
a wave coming as a matter offact. And you know, nobody that
I speak to likes what's going onin America right now. What about that

(25:40):
court case citizens? Does that changeyour opinion? If the court case going
downtown, nothing changes my opinion becauseI want to see what's done for America.
I want what's right for America.I want what's right for the citizens,
and my members want that also.They are very agitated. They're living
week to week. Some of themare not affording their bills, and I

(26:04):
think things need to change. Andmy members have basically told me, listen,
we want to vote for this guy. So when the time is right
and I have a bigger poll tobe done, we will make that decision.
But I will do whatever my memberswant me to do. Interesting.
Interesting, and that's in New Yorkright Those are working, working men and

(26:27):
women in New York who feel thatway. And you know, I think,
yeah, I hope people are tunedin all around the country. I
hope working people all around the countryfeel that way. Time will tell,
but that's pretty amazing, all right. Gott to leave it at that for
now. Time to start the weekendand to get ready for a Round two
of the NFL Draft. If youcare like I do, I have yourself

(26:48):
a great weekend. I'll see youMonday morning, bright nearly five am on
news Radio seven forty KRH. We'reback here at four on AM nine to
fifty KPRC as A sand was at
