Speaker 1 (00:01):
It didn't happen on Wednesday, but we began America Reports
with the developing story. Grand jury proceedings in the hush
money case against former President Trump canceled for today. This
as we await news in a possible indictment. John robertson
Washington and Sandra, we've climbed the mountain to midweek. There
(00:23):
it is. That's the announcement. Manhattan DA has canceled the
Wednesday meeting of the grand jury in this Donald Trump case.
Now they're ready for riding and looting and Trump people
to go crazy like anarchists and terrorists. That's how the
media has been playing this in New York City. The
reason for the cancelation is still unclear, but the jurors
(00:45):
were notified this morning Wednesday morning that they would reconvene
on Thursday. That is what the court said with the leagues. Now,
why did this happen? What does this mean? Van Jone
was on CNN pushing hard publicly appealing on behalf of
(01:06):
so many Democrats to this activist DA. Please don't do this.
You're giving Donald Trump what he wants. Please don't do this.
If you indict Donald Trump, this is gonna backfire, and
it's gonna be a really big backfire. Please don't do this,
(01:26):
Van Jones saying you need to rethink this, and clearly
a lot of that pressure from a lot of Democrats
are looking at polling realize that this may actually help
Donald Trump more than anything, bolster himself as the front
runner over Rhonda Santis and financially with massive donations. If
Donald Trump can campaign on look at what we have
(01:50):
become in this country, a third world country, where we
have a justice system that is willing to put people
in jail their political opponents. There can give tons of
examples of this. Nelson Mandel is a great example of us,
and say I am a martyr. Vote for me and
people will. By the way, here's how Van Jones put
it on CNN. Oh, if anybody is a Republican and
(02:13):
they have been afraid that there's some conspiracy, some well
organized conspiracy among progressives, they can relax now because you
would not start with this charge. You would start with
the charge in Georgia where he was interfering with elections.
You would start with the charge that he was helping
the insurrectionist in the coup. You wouldn't start with an
eight year old porn star payoff. So just again, this
(02:37):
is proof, if nothing else, that the progressives are not
very well organized. This is not the one you would
start with. That said. I hear my conservative friends saying
he's being overcharged. It's so aggressive, it's so terrible. Welcome
to my world, folks. Prosecutors overcharging, being overaggressive, being ridiculous
with minor stuff and turning it into major stuff happens
(02:59):
every single well dan America, every courthouse in America. I
think you want to be consistent now if you're concerned
that this particular person named Donald Trump is being overcharged
and mistreated by a prosecutor, joined the rest of us
who are trying to stop that from happening to ordinary people.
But my view about this is I think that the
heat is on this da. I think he's going to
(03:19):
make a very sober decision, and I would not be
surprised if he doesn't step back from the brain. And
I'm gonna get to you if he doesn't step back
from the brink. Let's just back that up about five
seconds and listen to this closing statement from Van Jones,
which I think is very telling. He's in New York,
he knows Bragg, he knows the people around Bragg. He's
a part of the Democratic machine. He's a former special
(03:42):
advisor President Obama. Again, listen carefully to his closing moment
here of this statement. Make a very sober decision, and
I would not be surprised if he doesn't step back
from the brain. That is a public appeal to an
activist da from a Democratic leader, Van Jones saying, don't
do it. Don't go there. Now. There's others in the media.
(04:04):
By the way, they're going the complete opposite way of this.
The View wants a mug shot of Donald Trump. They
won him handcuffed. We also found out today that the
Secret Service has made it very clear they will not
allow the president to be handcuffed. So that pipe dream
is over. That one is done. But the View started
(04:24):
their show on Wednesday, they were furious at Donald Trump
hadn't been arrested, and then mocked him for saying he's
a liar that he wasn't arrested. On Tuesday. Listen, I
want to start this with this update. You know who
is still at large? He is, Yes, he is, Yes,
(04:45):
hasn't been arrested. No, like you predicted, Well, you know,
you kind of have to weigh it with all the
other stuff, he said, and you figure, well, you know,
you Send, you won the election, you didn't win. Good
point Send, they come and arrestue, I said, why don't
he start believing him? Now? He manipulated everybody. We all
(05:07):
rose to the occasion, the papers, everybody just went there.
So many people were excited. Elia. Yeah, so they want
him indicted, but then they want to say he's a
liar because he wasn't indicted on the day that he
said he was going to be indicted on and they're
angry that he hasn't you know who hasn't been arrested.
(05:30):
Pretty much sums up the entire liberal media on this
story in just that. Now, let me also remind you
of the fantasy and when this started. Indicting Trump. Arresting
Trump has been a progressive fantasy all the way from
back in two thousand and seventeen, and they've never stopped
(05:53):
with this fantasy of having Donald Trump arrested, put in
you know, hind bars and a mug shot. This has
been a wet dream for them from sixteen into seventeen.
When he was inaugurated in January, the twentieth of seventeen
to eighteen to nineteen to twenty to twenty one to
(06:15):
twenty two, and now into twenty three. All right, before
I get into that, I want to talk to you

to remind you, and I hope every one of you
will share this bit of audio, share a podcast with
your family and your friends, put this on social media,
(07:42):
because I'm gonna give you three minutes of the media
losing their minds over the possibility all the way dating back.
Many of these cuts dating back to two thousand and seventeen,
the very beginning of his time in office. Wanting Donald
Trump to be a rested the eight House Democrats have
(08:03):
recently voted to advanced articles of impeachment, impeach him first
and end indict him. Yes, the president, a sitting president
can be indicted even if the president were to somehow
find some way to terminate. Muller that the indictments would
continue to grind. You could impeach anybody on anything. You
can try and indict is not functioning it. By the way,
everything you just heard there was from two thousand and seventeen.
(08:28):
This has been their game plan since two thousand and
seventeen when he won. It was their game plan when
they were spying on his campaign. It was the game
plan of the deep state. It was the game plan
of Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Annactional Committee and the
Steel dossier that they created an air. It was the
game plan of the FBI. Everything I just played for
(08:49):
you was back that. That was audio from two thousand
and seventeen. So let's move to two thousand and eighteen.
Did it change any No, it really didn't. Listen, he
is not is the president that ied states. Frankly, if
he ever gets indicted, he'll have insanity is a defense,
I suppose from a criminal of charge, but it's hardly
You know, this is a serious matter. You're starting to
(09:12):
hear people talk about the possibility that Donald Trump leaves
office in two years and then finds himself in the
crosshairs of these New York prosecutors. This sitting president can
and should be indicted. By the way, that's Michael Avanati,
the last guy Cannon should be in dead who's in
jail right now for stealing money from an actual porn star.
(09:32):
Michael Abanati, Right, He was a legitimate candidate for the
presidency because of his TV appearance on Seen and that's
what CNN build them as. In twenty eighteen, he said
Donald Trump canon will and should be indicted. President there
for sure is more than likely going to serve some
jail time. It's clear that Trump is to target and
he'll be indicted eventually. On the day Donald Trump leaves office,
(09:54):
the Justice Department may indict him. Now there is talk
of jail time for the president, or could indict the
president for obstruction of justice. Donald Trump should be indicted.
By the way, everything I just played for you there,
all of that was from two thousand and eighteen. Take
a listen to the media still saying Donald Trump's going
(10:14):
to be indicted and go to jail in two thousand.
In nineteen, donald Trump should be indicted for calling a
cooperating witness a rat. He should have been indicted. If
a sitting president can be indicted by the Justice Department,
why aren't we at the target Trump having committed crimes
to get the presidency, So why aren't we at an
(10:35):
indictment yet? I think there's generally consensus the president is
probably committed indictable crimes. It's very strongly in favor I've
indicting the president when he is out of office, that
there may be enough evidence to indict Trump. Is Donald
Trump going to be indicted? Maybe it'll happen, Maybe he'll
go to prison. You know, would you ever see the
inside of a prison cell? DA could get a ham
(10:56):
sandwich indicted. Hey, listen, Trump's the big mac. If Donald
Trump himself is not ever indicted, there is another way
that prosecutors can actually indict the entire Trump org. Let
me just stop there. So then it just you notice
how this changes a little bit. Right in two thousand, nineteen,
two and twenty one that they're still pushing this. Right
(11:20):
twenty twenty, they're still pushing this. Two that's an eighteen,
they're pushing this two and seventeen, they're pushing this. But
in twenty twenty, that's when you start to hear this
just more of a psychotic in fact, you know, obsession
with indicting Donald Trump, and not really on a charge.
It's just more of the idea of, well, Donald Trump
shoulder could be indicted, might be indicted just because we
(11:42):
hate him. You can hear that when Democrats the same
guy that led the impeachment, the same guy that led
the Russian collusion investigation. Adam shifty shift right when when
he's talking about well, we may not he may not
be inded now, but when he leaves the office, when
he leaves the White House, that's when that's when it
could be really indicted. That twenty need to be paying
(12:03):
attention in favor of indicting the president when he is
out of office, that there may be enough evidence to
indict Trump. Is Donald Trump going to be indicted? Maybe
it'll happen, Maybe he'll go to prison, you know. I mean,
let's en to the late night when there Jimmy Kimmel.
Jimmy Kimmel is like, maybe he'll be indicted. Maybe, maybe
we'll go to jail. He's not even talking about a crime.
(12:25):
It's just this wet dream of theirs that Donald Trump
gets in that gets just we put a political adversary,
a political opponent in prison because we don't like him.
And they kept doing this all through twenty twenty one.
You have us see the inside of a prison cell.
DA could get a ham sandwich indicted. Hey, listen, Trump's
(12:48):
the big Mack. I mean, Trump's the big Mac. And
that tells you the mentality of the media and of
the commentators of the Democratic Party. Right, Donald Trump is
the big mac, He's the Holy Grail. We have to
indict him, no matter what. This is something we have
(13:08):
to do. We've got to get him. We've got to
get him. We've got to get him. Even if Donald
Trump himself is not ever indicted, there is another way
that prosecutors can actually indict the entire Trump org. Now
this goes into twenty twenty one. Okay, well, all right,
if we don't get Donald Trump indicted, there is another
(13:30):
way to get Donald Trump. See after seventeen at not working,
after eighteen in Russian collusion, not working, after the impeachment,
failing to kick him out of office, then they started
conspiring to go after his businesses and his kids, and
that's that's what they did. All right, Well, we can't
nail you for anything. So now we're gonna go in
(13:53):
twenty twenty one after Trump ink, because that'll hurt the
president because his kids are involve alved. We hope uh
that Theutnant General seize the importance of moving ahead with
this indictment, moving ahead with locking Steve Bannon, the whole inch,
a lot of the whole company, indicted by next week.
(14:15):
Why not pursue it and see what happens, Merlin, if
you indict Trump, we just stop with that. Why not
indict and then see what happens. Does that sound like
a legal system that you want to be associated with?
Can you imagine if in this country you could just
you could just start indicting anybody you wanted to, for
(14:35):
anything at any moment, just because you don't like them.
I mean, that's it, that's the bar. Okay, we don't
like you, right, that's that's that's that's all there is.
We don't like you, and because we don't like you,
we hate your guts. We're gonna indict you and then
(14:56):
we'll just see what happens. We're gonna weaponize the justice
Department and the justice system to destroy you. And we're
going to be the ones that advocate for this. We're
going to be the ones that put it together. We're
going to be the ones that walk you and the
perp walk. This is the reason why they want it
(15:16):
so bad. This is it, folks. They want this so bad,
they're obsessed with it. It's psychotic. So they've been pushing
for this again back to twenty twenty two, my person
of the Year of the decade. The only thing worth
(15:38):
than indicting him would be not indicting him, would be
fully enough to indict them. Donald Trump is an ordinary
citizen and is committing crimes right now. I like the
idea of Mark Meadows going to jail for the rest
of his life. Buts I still think that the committee
has laid out that the person on top of all
of this, in charge of all of this, doing all
(15:59):
of this, was Donald Trump. Now for him not to indict, frankly,
would cause this country more harm than even if he
indice and there's a hung jury or not a successful conviction.
That's Claire McCaskill, by the way, who said that, a
former senator, Claire McCaskill, who's sang that she believes that
it would do more harm to this country if we
(16:19):
didn't indict Donald Trump for whatever and then just kind
of roll the dice. If he's if they if he's
if there's a hung jury, that's fine, right. If if
there's a hung jury, okay, whatever, but at least indict
the soob right, at least indict him right now, Indict him,
(16:39):
and then we'll just see what happens, because that's what
we're gonna do. That The narrative again continuing to change.
They ran out of things like Russia collusion and the
Steel dossier to frame him on crimes. Now it's not
even about crimes. Just well, he should be indicted because
he's Donald Trump, oh case in which they wouldn't indict.
(17:03):
I don't think we should be treating him the way
other ex presidents were treated. I don't think we should
be treating him the way that other ex presidents were treated.
That's your headline from CNN. We shouldn't treat people this way.
We shouldn't we We shouldn't treat them the way that
(17:27):
I just you know, like like with honor, indignity and
respected Donald Trump. We got to destroy him, right, we
must destroy them, that's what we have to do. If
we destroy him, we went. If we don't destroy him,
(17:48):
we've got a problem, right, we have a problem, and
we got to figure it out, and we got to
figure it out quickly, because how do we beat him?
We just indict him? Right, Well, okay, that didn't work,
all right, Now what do we do? Well, let's just
arrest him. We'll figure out that other part later we
(18:08):
can't really do that, right, Sure we can sure, yeah,
I oh, no problem, we can do this. We can
indict him. That's I mean, that's what they're saying. This
is it, folks. Back to twenty twenty two, the media
didn't even care what Donald Trump got indicted for. They
were pushing an indictment, indictment, indictment, every day, just like
they were in seventeen. But then they were using Russian
(18:29):
collusion all the fake stuff. Now they don't even have reasoning.
It's just we hate him, we should indict him. The
media is saying the same thing, put Donald Trump in jail.
They try to use January the sixth, but even that
ran out of team. So now what do they say,
We just don't white donald Trump. Put him in jail.
I think the extent of what Donald Trump's done is
so egregious that no attorney general, no fair minded attorney general,
(18:53):
would have any choice. According to the Atlantic, Garland is
preparing to indict Trump despite moving up the cautious pace
of an institutionalists. The only reasons Trump hasn't been indicted
by now is because he's a form of president and
because he has handpicked judges on his side. Accountability for
some people means that we get a pound of flesh
from Donald Trump and that he ends up behind bars.
(19:14):
Do you think it's about time for Special Counsel Jack
Smith to just indict Trump? And I love this, right,
we moved from twenty two to twenty twenty three, and
then it's just the the psychotic nature of all this, right,
Don't you think it's just time that we just go
ahead and indict Donald Trump? Like? Can we not just
hurry up and do this? Can we just get it
(19:34):
out of the way? Can we just hurry up and
indict Donald Trump? Because we need to indict Donald Trump.
It's just it's just we've been talking about it long enough.
Let's just indict him. That is an actual news person
saying this on MSNBC. We just we just we can't wait.
We've got to indict him, Like, can we just can
we just hurry up and get it done? About time
(19:56):
for Special Counsel Jack Smith to just indict Trump and
with such a move take Trump off the campaign trail?
Is this the charge you would want him to be
indicted on? Would a January six DJ indictment or say
a Georgia election interference charge carry more weight. There's your media.
That was a three minute and forty five second montage
(20:20):
of the media doing what the media does well, telling
you that Donald Trump deserves to go to prison because
we just don't like him, telling him that we hate
Donald Trump, and Donald Trump deserves to be indicted. We
don't even care what it's for. Just hurry up and
do it. We don't even care, Just do it. CNN,
(20:43):
by the way, has just drawn the lowest primetime ratings
in over thirty years, and the majority of what I
played for you, a lot of it came from CNN,
and this is where they are losing people, and I
think it's going to backfire on them. September of nineteen
ninety one, that was the last time the CNN primetime
(21:07):
audience was as small as it is today. In twenty
twenty three, because when you don't do news anymore and
you just become obsessed with taking down a political opponent,
like we're in a third world country. This is what
you get now to put in perspective how bad it is,
(21:27):
all right. According to Fox News Digitals, CNN just recorded
its smallest weekly primetime audience, and the advertiser covered Demo,
which is adults twenty five fifty four and over thirty years,
CNN's average was just eighty four thousand viewers during primetime.
(21:51):
Now primetime is seven to ten Central Time, eight to
eleven Eastern. At night, The Block by the begins with
programming that's been there for a long time. Anderson Cooper, right,
Anderson Cooper is there their guy, right, Anderson Cooper starts off.
The night's supposed to give them a lot of momentum.
(22:12):
Is supposed to be good for everybody. Anderson Cooper starts
out bamed. And then you've got a bunch of other
people that are there. Charles Barkley, by the way, Gail
King are among the names of channel continues to consider
to bring in to you know, kind of help them
out with how bad they're struggling right now. Now the
following channels now defeat seeing it in prime time. Just
(22:35):
so you know, none of which would provide or have
ever had what you would refer to as you know,
impressive ratings. Now, before I get into more of this story,
I want to say thank you and tell you about
our good friends at the Gusts of Precious Medals. They

(24:01):
Com eight seven seven four gold Ira. I want to
go back to this story. Let me give example TV
Land okay, running some black and white shows and reruns
beating CNN now free Form that's a kid's formerly known
I think is I don't know, Cartoon Network or Disney
Channel whatever it was beating them, Adult Swim beating them,
(24:24):
b ET beating CNN in primetime. The Hallmark Channel now
trying to be meant the Hallmark movie lovers that listen
to this show, but I mean Hallmark is now beating
breaking news on CNN in prime time, f XS beating them,
sci Fi that channel beating them. I didn't even know
(24:47):
that one existed. And finally Comedy Central. The Hallmark honeys
are mostly asleep come eight o'clock and they're still beating CNN.
As one industry insider PU, so why is this happening?
Because when you've been pushing the same narrative in the
same story since two seventeen and it never comes to fruition,
(25:10):
and you become obsessed with being hacks who are just
obsessing over putting Donald Trump in jail, this is when
your ratings get this low. And they deserve, by the way,
to be this low. They deserve to be mocked that
they deserve what you know, what is happening here now.
While all this is also going on, there's also another
(25:31):
reminder on this Tucker Carlson tape, just so you know,
there was an actual memo from twenty eighteen to twenty
nineteen they say was going to shake up the Trump case.
The lawyer Michael Cohen, who was a lawyer for Donald Trump,
denied having incriminating evidence on the hush money A lawyers
(25:53):
who formally advised Michael Cohen it LEDs and in twenty eighteen,
the x Trump advisor claimed to know nothing about a
former presidents committing wrongdoing, including on hush money two women.
An attorney who advised the disgraced Trump organization lawyer Michael Cohen,
provided the Manhattan prosecutors. They also are now saying with
(26:14):
volumous documentation, including emails and memos, purported to show that
in twenty eighteen, Cohen wanted to Donald Trump to help
cover his legal bills and repeatedly claimed he had bad
evidence incriminating the former president and a hush money deal
with porn actor Stormy Daniels. Cohen said he had no
information against Trump. When memo summarizing attorney Robert Costello's interactions
(26:37):
with Cohen stated. The memo, dated twenty nineteen, recounted Costello's
interview with federal prosecutors about conversations he and colleagues had
with Cohen a year earlier. Costello, who is a former
federal prosecutor who has represented famous clients like George Steinbrenner,
Rudy Giuliani, Steve Bannon, told Just the News on Tuesday
(27:00):
he provided the Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office with
more than three hundred pages of emails, memos, and texts
coronelane the dealings with Michael Cohen. He said the documents
show that Cohen took out a bank loan known as
a helock on his own during the twenty and sixteen
presidential election to pay Stormy Daniels one hundred and thirty
thousand under a non disclosure agreement so she would remain
(27:23):
quiet about her alleged relationship with Donald Trump. Cohen bragged
he kept the situation quiet so that Melania Trump and
Cohen's own wife wouldn't learn about it. Costello said in
an interview on The John Silomon Reports, recounting what he
said Cohen told him back in twenty eighteen. He said
(27:43):
Costello recalled, I didn't believe the information, but I knew
that this was a situation that would and that would
or could cause embarrassment. So I negotiated with a lawyer
and we worked out in NBA for payment of one
hundred and thirty thousand. And I said, did you get
the money from Donald Trump? No? Did you get it
from any Trump organization? No? I said, did you take
(28:06):
the money out of your own savings? Are checking? No?
I said, well, how'd you get the money? He said?
I took out a helock loan. Why would you take
out a helock loan to overcome something like this? He said,
because I wanted to keep it a secret. If I
took money from my account, my wife would know about it.
I didn't want my wife to know about it. I
(28:26):
didn't want Milannia Trump to know about it. He said.
That's why I didn't did it that way. Now, if
you're gonna go do it that way, that means you're
keeping it from Donald Trump and Melania Trump, Costella added,
summarizing the story, He offered Grand jurors and Manhattan prosecutors
about this ridiculous case. This is all nothing more than
(28:49):
an obsession by the left to destroy Donald Trump, and
I played you four and a half minutes of year
after year in seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, and twenty and twenty
one and twenty two and twenty three, the media obsessing
overtaking down Donald Trump, and they still may not get
(29:10):
him even this time. As it looks like this prosecutors
taking major heat from those in the Democratic Party to
not do it because they realize there's a very good
chance it's going to backfire. Makes you share a podcast
your family and friends. As soon as we get word
on what's going to happen, I will break in and
(29:33):
let you know, so don't miss it. Hit that subscriber
auto downlow button, and I will see you back here tomorrow,
if not earlier.
