Speaker 1 (00:01):
A rare and balanced view on politics in today's world,
based on facts born of rationality, common sense, and logic,
providing context on today's events. This is American Perspective with
Rick Thomas.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Hello everyone, and welcome to American Perspective. I am your host, Rick. Well,
we've only got a couple more days till the big event,
that's right, the celebration of the birth of our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ. Oh yeah, and also that whole
(00:44):
Santa Claus thing too, and giving of gifts. Yeah, that's
all coming up. And about No, I don't know, I
think it's like three days. I'm sure my unofficial producers
over here on the rumble chat will probably give me
some you know, day minute hour or hour minute whatever,
anyway countdown. I'm sure they'll do that, because that's how
(01:09):
this works around here. But anyway, everybody should be getting
ready for the day. I hope you are putting things
into perspective. You're planning on you know, having maybe family
or friends you know, come over and you know, celebrate
(01:34):
with you. Some will be missing those who have passed
recently and it will be a sad holiday for you,
but be joyful though. At the same time, because remember,
the Christmas holiday is ultimately a celebration of the the
(02:00):
coming of our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ, who came
here on earth to absolve us from all of our
sins and pay the ultimate price for us to be
able to reach the Kingdom of Heaven, which is where
the people who have passed us should be. But just
(02:23):
keep that in mind as you're as you're sitting there,
I know it'll be sad. I get it. There's nothing
that we can necessarily say or do that would prevent
that from happening. But at the same time, you should
be joyous as well, and know that God is with them,
those who have passed, and they are watching down on
(02:46):
you from heaven, and that there will come a day
when you will be rejoining them, and oh what a
joyous day that will be. All right, programming note again,
tomorrow will be the Christmas show. The Christmas Eve and
(03:10):
Christmas Day there will be no show, and then we'll
pick back up after Christmas. Again. Also keep in mind,
I'm waiting. I've gotten a few pictures, picture groups from folks.
I've got a few picture groups from folks. In terms
(03:30):
of the Christmas lights, if I'm lucky enough, I'll be
able to convince missus Whiskey to kind of go around
and drive with me and pick up a few around
here before tomorrow night. But if you haven't, if you've
got those pictures and you have not sent them into
me yet, please do so. I'd like to have a
nice little slide show for all of the Christmas lights.
I love it when people go and decorate, you know,
(03:52):
it makes it makes the holiday season a little more joyous,
and you know, I enjoy the decorations. Is this Honestly,
this is my one of my favorite times of the year.
I wish I I honestly, I wish that I would have,
you know, would get more snow, but unfortunately that's not
(04:17):
in the cards this year. So anyway, Yeah, my unofficial
producer Nana of JJS fifty one hours and fifty probably
three minutes till Christmas right now, fifty three fifty four
or something like that, because I was rambling for about
two minutes well after she had put it up. Anyway,
we're coming under the wire here. We got the two
(04:39):
or three days, so uh, two three days left, so anyway,
he got one more night, one more night to try
and get some photos, get some more photos, and we'll
put them in and I'll put them in a nice slideshow,
maybe play some Christmas music. I don't know, we'll figure
I'll figure it out. But anyway, well obviously too, don't forget.
(05:00):
As always, I love the Linus Christmas speech from the
Charlie Brown Christmas because that literally is what Christmas is
all about. And so I will be playing that clip
like I do every Christmas to remind everyone that that
is the reason for the season. So there you go. Uh,
(05:26):
not gonna go anywhere with that, Bam, not gonna do it,
all right, Let's go ahead and get some things kicked off.

please stand, remove your hat if you're wearing one like me,
place your hand over your heart, and follow along with
the NJY Camps Earls Band youth band I think it's
a youth band anyway, as they perform the pledge of allegiance,
(06:27):
and of course I thank them for submitting that wonderful
rendition of the pledge. If you would like to hear
your rendition of the pledge played here on the program,

let's go ahead and talk about our headline sponsor. I'm
wearing one of their fabulous shirts tonight. This is a
men's cotton polo on one of their lines that they

a series of articles that I have here, a couple
(10:05):
of videos too that they kind of show that, oh,
the Democrats, I mean, they're literally sucking right now. They're sucking.
I don't want to say it, but they are seriously sucking.
And I'm not talking about just their ratings right now,
because they're ap approve of approval ratings. That's what it was.
(10:27):
I was trying to say approvability, but I don't even
think that's a word. Anyway. Their approval ratings are in
the toilet. Nobody likes them, not even their own people apparently,
although for whatever reason they still seem to think that
they are being effective and they're not. Their ratings are
the lowest that they've ever seen. Well, there's some other
(10:49):
narratives and things that they've been harping on for decades
really that are falling, falling, falling deep within the bounds
or the realm of well, let's just say just it's
a pain in the ass. So anyway, this first one first,
(11:12):
this is a video. This is coming from New York State. Now,
as you know, most leftist, lunatic run states have this
thing where they talk about, oh, we're gonna, you know,
save the climate, save the climate, and it never saves
(11:35):
the climate. All it does is just end up with
more taxes. Like the Green New Deal or the New
Green Deal, whatever it was that Biden put in place
that helped facilitate the astronomical fifty year rise in inflation.
That was on the back or on the heels of
the Inflation Inducing Act, I mean, the Inflation Reduction Act.
(11:59):
That's what was officially called. But anyway, here in New York,
they're finding out that those wonderful electric buses that you know,
Kamala Harris was running around talking about green buses. You
remember that, You remember that all of the electric buses.
She loved the electric buses. She loved green buses, even
(12:19):
though she was standing in front of yellow buses because
they were painted yellow for the school bus. You know,
school buses are yellow. But anyway, she kept touting them
and touting them and towing them all through Biden. Well,
people who actually use these buses are starting to realize
something that, oh my gosh, when it gets cold, you
(12:45):
have to do certain things in order to sort of
save battery. Anyway, let's head on over to this Channel four.
I don't know what channel, what the the the uh?
This is about the Lake Shore Central School District, But
let's head on over here and take a listen to
(13:07):
what they have to say about it. To a story
you'll see only on four. Parents in the Lake Shore
Central School District are speaking out tonight, demanding officials do
something to ensure their electric school buses are heated.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Those parents alleged bus drivers are turning down the heat
or turning it off completely to save battery life around
Petrie has more rob Yeah, that's absolutely right, David Kelsey.
You know this comes on the heels of a statewide
mandate that requires all new school bus purchases in New
York to be electric by twenty twenty seven. But that's
(13:40):
not what has Lakeshore parents upset though. It's what their
kids told them when they got home from the bus
and the alleged and action on the part of the
district that has them speaking out tonight.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
And they struggled with the heat, they struggled with getting
to school, getting home from school in a timely manner.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Parents in the Lake Shore Central School District tell me
they are outraged after their children came home and told
them their school bus had no heat. Some claim it's
the bus drivers who are allegedly turning the heat down
or in some cases completely off to try to save
the bus's battery from dying. Some of those kids are
(14:18):
on there for up boards of a half hour or
more while the bus makes it route.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
There's no reason that the kitchen freeze for all that time.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
My grandson had came home from school last week when
it was twenty three degrees and he said they didn't
have heat. He came in cold and I told him,
I said, well, isn't the bus you warm? And he
said no. They can't put the heat on because it
drains the battery.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
We reached out to the Lake Shore Central School District,
who's aware of the concerns and issued news for the
following statement saying, in part, quote, district procedures or that
heat remains on for the full duration of student transportation.
All routes are planned so that the electric bus battery
capacity is more than sufficient to support both the route
(15:03):
and continuous heating, even in winter weather. The New York
State Energy Research and Development Committee is tasked with facilitating
the state's transition to all electric school buses by twenty
thirty five, their website saying quote, while battery range can
decrease in cold weather, they are still sufficient to complete
(15:24):
operations on most local bus routes. However, not everyone we
spoke with agrees they're living in.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
New York City, which is also Lalla land. Because this
is a city centric mandate. This might work in New
York City, where the bus routes may be a quarter
of a mile to a mile long and gas stations
are hard to come by in a city that's so
overcrowded and developed. That's not the case on the rest
of New York, whether you're on Long Island or upstate.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
That was Republican State Senator Alexis Wike, who's sponsoring legislation
to give school districts the choice of which buses they
want to buy.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
We're going to be pushing hard because our school are
really stressing part about the cost and the ability to
meet this mandate in time.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Meanwhile, fellow Republican State Senator Patrick Gallovin from Western New
York also weighing in on the bill, which he's also sponsoring,
issuing a statement that superintendent should be the one to
make that choice, saying, quote, given the states recently adopted
fifteen year Energy Plan, this issue and other all electric
mandates and policies must be re examined to ensure they align. Now,
(16:33):
the bill has been introduced, but it's yet to be
assigned to a committee. The senator says she hopes to
have it considered after the start of session in January five.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
So basically what's happening here, of course, is that the
electric buses are not the panacea that the left wants
you to believe. Now, I seem to recall talking about
this last year or maybe the year before that, even
where schools in Michigan were running across problems keeping the
(17:05):
buses even on the road because of part issues, parts
issues and things like that. So yeah, that whole Green
New Deal and electric buses and all this other stuff.
You know. Oh, also too, don't forget that. Like I
(17:26):
was talking with by a family relative, a relative of mine.
They were talking about how they were driving somewhere and
there was this hulk of a car sitting on the
side of the road and they couldn't understand, you know,
why the police are not the police, but why the
fire weren't really doing anything. And I asked him, I'm like, hey,
(17:49):
I go, you know, did it look like a electric vehicle?
And they were like, well, yeah, actually did they look
like kind of like a Prius? And I said, okay,
I go, well no, you know, not saying anything bad
about the fire department, but most fire departments will they
don't have the equipment to basically put out a lithium
(18:12):
battery fire, and so they just let the damn thing
burn until it burns out. And that's pretty much what
likely happened. I've seen those happen a lot, so yeah, yeah,
it's this whole panacea, this idea, this you know, pink
(18:34):
rainbow unicorn of everything being electric. Yeah. Yeah. By the
way too, don't forget. Uh, Chicago also had a really
bad winter last year and they had a bunch of
electric cars that basically died on the road. So if
you get stuck in a traffic jam or something along
those lines and your battery is about ready to die,
(18:57):
you have to make a choice. Do you shut the
heat off and potentially freeze to death to save your
batteries so you can actually maybe get home, or do
you keep the heat on and then wait for it
to die and then freeze to death anyway not being
(19:18):
able to move, or in the case of people who
are in Florida for an example, and they have what
do you call it, hurricanes, seawater intrusion lights, these things
on fire. Yeah, okay, they're not the panacea that everybody
seems to think. Now, I'm gonna be honest with you again,
(19:40):
I'm not necessarily against the technology itself, because you know,
I have a hybrid vehicle. I actually think hybrids are
really the way to go, not full electric, full gas
in full diesel. That's fine, that's been working for you know,
(20:00):
hundreds of years or at least tens of years decades.
But in terms of going full electric, I just don't
think the technology is quite there yet, and I think
there are still some challenges that have a large part
(20:21):
in figuring out whether the things are reliable and are
able to work. But yeah, well I'm not the only
one because apparently, apparently there are some people who have
jumped in and subscribed to the whole climate change thing
(20:47):
and they're now starting to realize that well, hmm, maybe
it isn't quite the shall we say, the emotional panic
that needs to occur with climate change, because remember climate change, okay,
has always been oh, we're gonna the sea level is
(21:10):
going to rise in twelve years, the polar bears are
gonna die and go extinct, the polar ice caps are melting,
and they're gonna raise the sea levels. Yet over at
least the last one hundred years, not a single sea
has risen. I mean, yes, there has been erosion, that's
(21:31):
just standard procedure on this on this planet that we
call home. We're basically stuck on. I mean, think about this,
We're we're in a lifeboat. There is nothing left anyway. Yeah, anyway,
(21:52):
I'm just saying that now we seem to have reached
what this one author is calling an Emily Tella moment,
which is basically, for those of you who are looking
at like Saturday Night Live for an example, there was
a but fuddled character named Emily Lutella early Tella, that
(22:14):
realized that she would miss here or misinterpret some comment
on the show and then started like proponent propounding an
absurd theory and then would dismiss it with the oh
never mind as she goes along. Well, Bill Gates recently here,
(22:35):
who he obviously has been a part of the whole
Green New Deal bandwagon of like, oh my god, we're
gonna kill ourselves in like, uh, you know, twelve years
or ten years or whatever it is. Well, he he
is actually backed off because he's like, you know, although
(22:56):
climate change will have serious consequences, he said, it will
not lead to humanity's demise. Oh oh, he goes. He
continues and says people will be able to live and
thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future. Oh,
(23:20):
we're gonna die now. Oh never mind. Yeah, anyway, there's
also some other people that are starting to like wake up,
and we'll call it smell the coffee because this person,
this individual whose name is Ted Nordhouse, that's Nrdhaus, Ted Norhouse,
(23:46):
who is the research director at the Breakthrough Institute. He
basically says, you know, I used to argue that if
the world kept burning fossil fuels at the current rate,
catastrophe was virtually assured. This he wrote this fall. He
wrote this into an article in the Free Press. He goes,
(24:10):
I no longer believe this hyperbole. He pointed out that
the demographic and physical factors on which he based his
predictions two decades ago have not come to pass. Oh so,
in other words, the modeling that you did had some
faulty assumptions and that led to your faulty conclusions. So yeah, anyway,
(24:46):
so he he pointed out that those demographic and physical
factors on which he based his predictions two decades ago
have not come to pass, and that despite measurable warnings,
some of which is it or measurable warming, I should say,
some of which is attributable to human activity. He thinks
(25:07):
people have adapted and any damage has been well short
of catastrophic. Yeah, I don't think so. I don't agree
with him. I don't agree with him because of the
fact that I don't think there's enough people. Because again,
as I've told you on this program, the United States
can do all kinds of stuff they can try, and
they can eliminate carbon based fuels all together. We could,
(25:33):
in theory stop tomorrow and it still wouldn't change or
reverse anything because you still have China, India and Russia
who all don't give a crap and continue to do
their thing. In fact, a British science writer, Matt Ridley,
noted that claims such as al Gore's two thousand and
(25:54):
six prediction of a twenty foot sea rise level rye
last twenty years, you know again, because we're looking at
twenty twenty six next year, have fallen short by about
oh nineteen feet and nine inches. Ah yeah, yep. So
(26:24):
all of this stuff, of course, is starting to demonstrate
that well, yeah, maybe the leftists, the leftist lunatics are
not exactly correct. They're on the losing end of this battle.
Speaker 6 (26:40):
So yeah, these people, I'm just telling you, and if
anybody has I think his name is Chris Martz.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
If anybody has the ability on Facebook to follow Chris Martz.
Chris Martz is a meteorologist who has been studying all
of this stuff, and he's basically demonstrating over and over
and over again that yeah, we're not near the catastrophic
climate change that we think we were. That temperatures way
(27:14):
back farther back than what we have recently are. We're
also either higher or lower. They're both way back in
the say, the nineteen twenties or the thirties. Is te
of Texas reminded me of that, that temperatures, Yeah, that
people went through in the twenties and thirties.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
So anyway, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
It's just crazy to think that these people, these people
are sitting here and they're like, oh, you know again,
I'm just pointing out garbage in, garbage out. They're sitting
here talking about all of this stuff, you know, and
so far none of it has ever come true. So right, anyway,
(28:07):
So yeah. In earlier this month, as a Wall Street
editorial or Wall Street Journal editorial was among the few
to emblazon this trend, the journal Nature retracted a study
that projected climate change could lead to a sixty two
(28:29):
percent economic decline by twenty one hundred. Among the factors
that skewed the results as a part of that study,
which caused it to be retracted was a some data
that they had pulled from nineteen ninety five to nineteen
ninety nine in Uzbekistan. Yeah, so they were looking at
(28:53):
a very very specific area that essentially was skewing the
results because again, garbage in, garbage out. So yeah, anyway,
it looks like we may have you know, and again
the conspiracy theorists unite conspiracy theories. This is one of
(29:17):
them that is starting to fall flat, starting to fall flat.
All right, Well, let's take and talk about coffee, my
wonderful morning elixir. Yes, coffee, coffee, coffee, great stuff. I
put it in my cup. I have a sixteen ounce
(29:37):
cup given to me by my children. It is a
fantastic you know, flavor to it. Of course, a great
saying on the outside, father liked no other. Yeah, I agree.
I am a father like no other for sure. But anyway,
I fill it with coffee every morning. And if I
don't have it, trust me, I get really cranky. You
(30:00):
have headaches and things. It's just it's just it's not
a pretty packture. Okay, Well, if you still haven't tried
seventeen seventy five coffee now is you're shot. The seventeen
seventy five starter kit just dropped. There's a limited number
of units available. In each unit, you're getting the bowl
dark rose that hits hard, the smooth medium roast, and
(30:23):
the Vitality Mushroom coffee which has got clean energy and
laser focus with no crash later. All of these coffees
are single origin, small batch, talsin free and mold free.
Plus you'll also be getting uh. You'll also be getting
a gold spoon clip because freedom isn't scooped with plastic,
(30:47):
a frother that is strong enough not only to stir
up your coffee but also your mother in law's opinions.
I don't really think you need a frother for that.
You just got to say the right thing at the
right time and she'll frecking explode anyway, Moving on, he
you'll also be receiving a black seventeen seventy five tumbler.
It's one hundred and seventy dollars worth of coffee and
gear yours for just the low low price of ninety
(31:12):
nine dollars. This is for the ones who have been
watching seventeen seventy five coffee blow up on a rumble
and wondering if it's actually worth it. Spoiler alert it is.
Go to the website one seven seven five Coffee dot Com.
That's seventeen seventy five Coffee dot Com Forward Slash Studio.
(31:32):
And for those of you that don't know that forward
Slash is the question mark key, seventeen seventy five Coffee

(31:53):
Studio and uh, grab your starter kit today. Don't forget.
Seventeen seventy five is the brew that will slap you
around like a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Experience it now. Anyway,
I was brought in by none other than Gee, Yeah, well,
(32:18):
another trove of Epstein files. I can't even believe I'm
going to be talking about this, but this is like,
this just goes to show you where the news media
is right now. But apparently there was a conspiracy theory.
Another conspiracy theory left the leftists put out there because
(32:38):
apparently some of the some of the pictures that were released,
there was about fifteen or sixteen of them that all
of a sudden disappeared off of the Department of Justice's website.
And the left, of course is saying, hey, guess what
that's because they're trying to hide at Trump. Trying to
(33:01):
hide Trump. Well, Deputy Attorney General Biancy, Yeah, he's got
some he's got some choice words. He explains the entire
thing right here. So let's take a listen.
Speaker 7 (33:17):
You were referencing the fifteen files released Friday. They disappeared
from DJ's website yesterday, including this photo of what looks
like a desk with a drawer opened containing photos of
Donald Trump. Just to be very clear, to put a
fine point on it, why were these files taken down?
You're saying it was at the direction of a judge.
Speaker 8 (33:41):
Well, you can see in that photo there's photographs of women,
and so we learned after releasing that photograph that there
were concerns about those about those women and the fact
that we had put that photo up, so we pulled
that photo down. It has nothing to do with President Trump.
There are dozens of photos of President Trump already released
to the public seeing him with mister Epstein. He has
(34:03):
said that in the nineties and early two thousands he
socialized with him. So the absurdity of us pulling down
a photo, a single photo, because President Trump was in
it is laughable. And the fact that everybody's trying to
act like that's the case is a reflection of their
true motivation. But the reality is anybody, any victim, any
victims lawyers, any victim rights group, can reach out to
(34:25):
us and say, hey, Department of Justice, there's a document,
there's a photo, there's something within the Epstein files that
identifies me, and we will then of course pull that
off and investigate.
Speaker 7 (34:38):
You were referencing the fifties.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Okay, So I just want to point out, okay, and
I gotta move here because one of these photos that
they show that they they put out there. As soon
as I find it, here we go. Okay, So right here,
this is the photo of the photos that they that
(35:04):
Todd is talking about to Todd Blunkie I think is
his name, And anyway, one of the photos right down
here in the lower left corner, you can see there's
a picture of somebody standing with like four women, and
then right behind it there's a photo. You can barely
(35:25):
make out Donald Trump in the photo. Well, here's what
the leftists were doing. The leftists took that photo and
they said, oh my gosh, look it had Donald Trump
in it. They're taking him down. Okay, folks, that that
particular photo happens to be one that has been out
(35:47):
in social media for close to ten years now, perhaps
even longer. That is a photo of Donald Trump. To
his left is Millennia, to the left of Milania is Epstein,
and to the left of Epstein is Kilane Maxwell. Now,
if you've ever seen that photo, trust me, if you've
(36:10):
ever seen that photo, you already know. I mean you
can just you can just tell just by looking at
at Trump and Gilaine Maxwell. Those two are framing Milania
and Jeffrey Epstein. In fact, the left tried to use
that particular photo in particular to prove that Milania actually
(36:34):
even knew what Jeffrey Epstein was doing. That that Jeffrey Epstein,
you know, oh he he's the one that connected Malania
and Trump together. And you know, Millenia may have been
working for Epstein at the time and all those other
little fricking conspiracy bullshit that goes running around. But that's
what they're that's what they're that's the photo in particular
(36:54):
that they're trying they're trying to point out. It's like,
oh my god, there it is. It's the smoking one.
Except we've all seen it. It's been in public view forever.
We've all seen it. Here we go, another big effing
nothing burger. Accept there's only one problem. It's not Trump
(37:21):
that is the big that is the talk of the town. Here,
there was a photo within this trope that came out,
and this particular photo that came out in fact, here,
let me just show you this is. Let me just
show you this. So this is the image that was
(37:42):
covered up that the left is saying that that is
I knew I had it somewhere, But the left is
saying that, oh my god, there it is. There's the
smoking gun. Because again, you know, as I showed you before,
here's the here's the quote unquote picture one of the
pictures that was taken down. Yeah, it's a twenty five
(38:03):
year old Getty picture. Everybody's seen it. That's the photo
that's in that photo that I was pointing out to you.
So there you go. Yeah, all right, anyway, they've come
up short with this. But but there are photos. There
(38:24):
are photos of Bill Clinton, as an example, Billy Bob
Clinton in a hot tub with an unidentified woman that
was redacted. There's photos. There's plenty of photos of Billy
Bob running around. So you know, again the leftists, they're like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(38:48):
you know, this is so bad. Trump's connection to Epstein
is so bad. No, it's not. It isn't even close.
Trump found out what Epstein doing. He cut off ties
with Epstein. He he testified and gave a deposition or something,
gave testimony to the prosecutor and for in the Epstein
(39:11):
the first Epstein trial in Florida. Yeah, kicked him out
of our alago all that other stuff, which, of course
the left, the leftist lunatics don't want you to know. Well,
you know what, even the New York Times is starting
to say, hey, yeah, this is starting to get too
(39:38):
too long. So the New York Times wrote a piece.
Now here's the thing. Okay, they wrote a piece, and
of course they're the New York Times, so of course
they're going to do this. But here's the headline to
the piece, Don's best friend, how Epstein and Trump bonded
over the pursuit of women. Well, again they're attempting to
(40:03):
try and demonstrate that. Well, you know, there's just so much,
so much stuff going on. Well, there's only one problem.
The New York Times even admits they buried the actual
the actual truth here. They buried it in the article.
(40:27):
You have to actually read the article. Now, let's just
say the New York Times, by itself, I mean, they
usually put things behind a paywall. That's why I don't
usually have their articles up outside of other people who
paid for it, who put it into their articles. But anyway,
I digress. Here is the lead and yeah, this is
(40:48):
a big one. It says, and I quote, an examination
of their history by the New York Times has found
no evidence implicating mister Trump in mister Epstein's abuse and
trafficking of miners. Yeah, so let me read that again.
(41:16):
This is in the New York Times. In the New
York Times quote an examination of their history by the
New York Times has found no evidence implicating mister Trump
in mister Epstein's abuse and trafficking of miners. So let's see,
(41:39):
we have no photos of Trump doing anything untoward or
even criminal. We have victim quote unquote testimony b I
m using quote unquote for victim, because let's face it,
some of the claims are like, eh, victims who have
(42:00):
and and other people who would know have given closed
door court testimony, deposition, sworn depositions, whatever you want to
call him, and they've given him. They've given him a
complete pass saying no, we've never heard of or saw
(42:21):
Donald Trump do anything untoward or criminal. No, we never
saw him at the island, We never saw him at
Trump's or at sorry, at Epstein's estate. Trump himself has
come out and said, well, yeah, I flew on his
plane a few times back and forth from Florida to
New York, which is supported by the flight logs that
(42:42):
have been you know, thrown out in the public. There's
all of this stuff, and yet here we have finally
the New York Times is waking up and going, you
know what, maybe we should get ahead of this thing
so that we don't get in hm hm uh, get
(43:03):
ahead of any kind of problems here by saying an
examination of their history found no evidence implicating mister Trump
and mister Epstein's abuse and trafficking of minors, again, folks,
is a big effing nothing burger. You people need to quit,
you leftist lunatics who are out there calling him a rapist,
(43:24):
a pedophile, you know, all of this stuff with literally
zero evidence other than the attempt at an implication just
because of an association that he may or may not
have had, which, by the way, the vast majority of
the photos that are floating around are all from open
(43:46):
public spaces. There's not really any of these spaces or
places that seem to be private in any nature. They
are in general, again, the vast majority in public, in
the within the public view places that you would find
massive amounts of people, and you may get a paparazzo
who sits there and goes, hey, can I get a photo,
(44:08):
And then that you know, two or three people gather
and they're like, yeah, let's get our photo. Okay, smile, click, Okay,
we're good, and they go walking on. They don't even
know these people. Hell, it's kind of like the uh,
it's kind of like the red carpet at a film
premiere or something like that. You'll get random stars that
(44:30):
happen to be in the red carpet line. Maybe they
know each other, maybe they don't, but they pose for
photos and they get their photo taken. That's it. That's
all there is. These idiots are sitting here trying to
like hang all of this. We've got Trump for the
fifty millionth time or whatever it is telling you folks,
(44:53):
there's nothing here. Give it up on Epstein, Let it go,
Let it go, that it go. All right, Well, there
is some shocking evidence and truth that's coming out. I
(45:16):
talked a little bit about some new documentation that has
presented itself, and this new documentation that's coming out is
actually revealing some of the shocking lengths that the Obama
administration and Biden administration went to protect Hillary Clinton and
(45:43):
her unconstitutional or well not unconstitutional, but her illegal use of
her private email server, which was leaking classified documents by
being broken into because it was unsecured private server anyway,
the Obama Biden administration reportedly prevented agents investigating Hillary Clinton
(46:10):
from reviewing some eight thumb drives of intel based on
purported concerns over executive and congressional privilege. According to these
newly released documents. Wait a minute, I thought executive privilege
and congressional privilege for Donald Trump and his administration didn't exist. Really, huh, okay,
(46:41):
take I'm taking a quick trip down on offshoot track. Landing,
be good, quit barking, stop barking anyway, All right, going
back to this, So this, this reality renders last month's
(47:01):
revelation that the Biden administration approved special counsel Special Counsel
Jacksmith's subpoenaing of a Congressional Republicans toll records even more appalling.
So you're sitting here and you're wondering to yourself, Hey,
wait a minute, Okay, so they are they are stepping
out and uh, you know they just did all these things. Well,
(47:27):
apparently that didn't help with Landon because Landon is now
barking at me. Anyway, This apparently is demonstrating even further
the democrats weaponization of the justice system, making it even
more obvious and outrageous. So last week, Senator Grassley of
Iowa released a tranche of documents that he obtained through
(47:53):
his relentless efforts to expose the weaponization of the Department
of Justice. Whistleblowers have been feeding Grassly specifics of the
deep state's nefarious doings, and the Iowa Republican knew precisely
which documents to request, as shown by the details containing
the nearly one hundred pages of emails and timelines released
(48:14):
last week. So those documents exposed efforts by the Obama administration,
the DOJ, and the FBI holdovers under Trump to obstruct
the investigation into the Clinton Foundation. So here's one of
(48:35):
the emails. It's a December thirty, first, twenty twenty email
from then US Attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas,
Cody Hilland, to Jonathan Ross, who served as Hilland's first
assistant under Trump. One zero one point zero. It capsualizes
(48:55):
the obstruction the duel faced when attempting to investigate the
Clinton Foundation. Hilland opened the email saying what a bizarre,
unsettling time that was, adding that he was thankful that
Jonathan Ross was with him to go through the fire
quote unquote, he wrote in this email, as he sent
(49:20):
as he stepped down as a US attorney following Biden's
election in twenty twenty. We're done with what we can
or we've done. Sorry, We've done what we can about
the interference by DOJ and FBI leadership at the time
with the FBI's investigation. In addition to that email, the
document cash that Grassly revealed last week also revealed extension,
(49:44):
extensive obstruction into the investigation into Hillary Clinton, first by
the Obama administration itself, but also continuing into Trump's first
term on his first day as US Attorney hilland focused
on one speci detail, the Deep States secreting of classified appendices.
(50:08):
These appendices and these emails pointed to two in particular.
Two Appendix one discussed the highly classified information relevant to
what they called the mid year investigation into Clinton's mishandling
of classified information. The second appendix contained a more fulsome version,
(50:32):
including law enforcement sensitive information, of Chapter thirteen's discussion concerning
whether or not FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe violated his
recusal obligations by working on various investigative matters related to Clinton. Yeah,
(50:54):
this is a this is getting Oh, this is getting good.
So in July of this year, after having sought the
release of the first appendix for more than six years,
Grassley finally succeeded in securing its declassification. He then released
the appendix, calling it the Clinton Annex The press release
(51:18):
that Grassley issued with the Clinton Annex understandably stressed that
the recently classified appendix revealed an extreme lack of effort
and due diligence in the FBI's investigation into former Secretary
Clinton's email usage and mishandling of highly classified information. But
with last week's release, Grassley revealed that the US Attorney's
(51:42):
Office investigating the Clinton Foundation had sought and been denied
access to that same appendix, and it would seem that
the Clinton Annex held relevance beyond the FBI's midyear Examine
exam investigation into the forma Secretary of State's mishandling classified information.
(52:05):
So specifically, the Clinton Annex detailed on how a source
known as T one provided the FBI eight thumb drives
of data, which included material hacked from the Executive Office
of the President, the State Department, the US House of
Representatives of various federal agencies, as well as some nonprofit
(52:27):
organizations such as George Soros's Open Society Foundation in the
Atlantic Council. T one. That source later provided FBI additional
data referred in the Clinton and NX as Post eight data.
(52:48):
This is starting to go crazy. Apparently, the post date
data included two Russian language documents that appeared to be
report courts discussing purported communications between the then chair of
the Democratic National Committee, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and individuals working
(53:10):
for Soros' Open Society Foundation. An FBI linguist translated the
reports into English, with the first report stating recent information
appearing in the media about the FBI investigating possible facts
of corruption connected with the State Department and the granting
of preferences to Clinton fund donors created a negative reaction
(53:32):
within the party, though this information was already known by
Democratic Party leaders since June of twenty fifteen. According to
Wasserman Schultz, so far, the FBI does not have any
hard evidence against Hillary Clinton because data was removed from
the mail servers just in time. Yeah Clinton, God, we
(54:02):
dodged a bullet with Clinton. The second report that was
translated read by way of forming a consensus relative to
the candidacy of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, leading Democrat Party,
sanctioned use leading the Democrat Party, sorry, sanctioned use of
all administrative levers to remove possibly negative effects of the
(54:25):
FBI investigation of the business of the Clinton Foundation. And
the email correspondence of the State Department. So, in other words,
Obama covered it up. Yeah, as if we didn't already know, folks,
this is just the tip of the iceberg. And by
the way, I would suggest looking at the Federal the
(54:48):
Federalist article, because it goes into this even further, even further,
because it even talks about the fact that the Obama
administration barred the FBI from comprehensively reviewing the those thumb
drives that contained large amounts of data from the State Department. Yeah,
and saying that they were subject to various executive and
(55:10):
congressional privileges. What a mess. And you think that we
should be able to trust and we should be able
to trust the Democrat Party. We can't. There's just no way.
These people, Obama, Biden, Hillary Clinton, all the rest of them.
(55:33):
They are all corrupt, folks. Corrupt. We need to get
them out completely, out of our of our politics. They
need to just go. They need to go. Speaking of
corruption in politics, well you know all those wonderful seventeen
(55:58):
thousand CDL drivers that got their stuff yanked, Well, apparently
California has given the big non family friendly fingers middle
fingers to the federal government because they are expected to
defy the federal pressure and reissue seventeen thousand non domiciled
(56:22):
cdl's commercial driver's licenses. They're expected to begin reissuing these
licenses that the state had planned to revoke following federal
enforcement pressure. The decision comes despite ongoing corrective action requirements
(56:43):
from the federal government and raises fundamental questions about federal
enforcement authority when a state openly defies compliance directives. So
there you go. They're going to reinstate these illegal alien
drivers who can't speak English. That's what they're looking to do.
State transportation officials confirmed to sources that the Department of
(57:06):
Motor Vehicles will begin restoring the contested licenses to immigrant
drivers who received sixty day cancellation notices back on November sixth.
The state has not clarified the specific process, but pointed
points to the DC courts November thirteen emergency stay of
(57:27):
the FMCSA's interim final rule restricting non domiciled CDL eligibility.
What apparently California misunderstands or is choosing to ignore, is
that the court stay addressed only the September twenty ninth
to interim final rule. It did not address this separate
(57:48):
compliance failures that the FMCSA documented during its twenty twenty
five annual Program Review, which found approximately twenty five percent
of California's non domiciled CDLs were improperly issued under regulations
that existed before the emergency rule was ever published. Yep,
(58:13):
so this is setting up another another court showdown, folks,
another one. Oh my gosh, we'll see what happens. We'll
see what happens because I know that the Supremacy Clause
of the Constitution states that the federal rules and laws
(58:35):
supersede any state laws. So we'll just have to see
what's going to happen overall. But anyway, all right, folks,
