Committee chair Jim important of Ohio this afternoon sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland seeking more information about the the FBI raid on the former president's home at Mar -a -Lago. As you know Republicans have been highly critical political ever since that took place and this is in part of renewal of requests made by the committee earlier this year here when the raid earlier after the raid first occurred and it's an indication of the continuing scrutiny the Justice Department as well as the FBI are likely to come under as we go forward the judiciary committee also in addition to being very interested the house oversight committee likely to get involved as well a lot of public and sharply critical of this indictment and what else are congressional Republicans saying about this this afternoon well well Nick there's kind of a split between the house and the Senate on the house side they were very quick to criticize House speaker Speaker Kevin McCarthy calling it unconscionable House Majority Leader Steve Scalise joining in the criticism the term that most Republicans are using whether it's a talking point or not is weaponization of the Justice Department that is what many of the house members are saying they're also questioning whether about the timing of this in connection with the earlier investigation related to former the president president related to the whole situation involving the House Oversight Committee and whether or not the FBI director Christopher Wray Wray would be called into questioning also on the other side on the Senate side Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has not said anything about this nor has the number two Republican John Hey Mitch do you think this development is going to have any impact on the situation about that Republican vote against House Speaker Kevin McCarthy one thing to look for is whether or not this will bring the Republican conference together the eleven conservatives who are very upset with House Speaker McCarthy have made it that clear they didn't like the debt ceiling deal they're holding up legislation right now but they have been talking and they're going to be meeting again on Monday I'll be interested to see whether or not this causes them to come together and say that they need to move forward to counter what they think are the bad things that are happening with the White House and President Biden so that'll be something to look for as we move into the next week OK WTOP's Mitchell Miller Quick look at the top stories we're working on here at WTOP we continue to follow the breaking story of day the the indictment against former President Trump has been unsealed we've learned he is now charged with 37 crimes special counsel Jack Smith speaking just moments ago we have one set of laws in this country and they apply to everyone the DC Metro is now under code yellow air quality alert smoke from the Canadian wildfires begins to clear out over the region keep it here for full details on these stories in the minutes ahead let's head to the traffic center get the latest latest from Bob Inouye 95 in Virginia northbound heavy and slow getting into Springfield they were working on a brush fire blocking the the right lane before 644 southbound just some volume delays getting over the Occoquan and then through Stafford as it is Friday afternoon and people are traveling but it seems like it's heavier northbound right now because of that brush fire we we had Manassas had the minor crash eastbound 66 before Sudley Road along the left side Southbound 66 has brief volume delays through Vienna and again through Centerville Interloop loads up at Route 7 headed for Maryland Maryland beltway through Montgomery and Prince George's counties a lot of volume delays no incidents in the road don't let the heat catch you Do off -guard schedule your $69 AC tune up from GAC services today visit gacservices dot com to schedule GAC services

Whistleblower Drops Bombshell on Biden's Immigration Policies
"A new whistleblower appeared before the Republican Congress yesterday. And offered some startling evidence and made some startling accusations. And her name is Terra Lee rotis. And she testified before the House judiciary committee. The issue was immigration, and we know, and have known for some time about the porous border. We know about the Biden administration, shenanigans, the willing cooperation with cartels, the gangs coming over into this country, the drugs coming over the sex trafficking that can occur with the migrants themselves. And all of this is just repulsive and why the Republican House has not already begun impeachment proceedings of mayorkas is beyond me. This is where Republicans tend to be kind of straight laced. They will how has Mallorca's violated the law? Well, the law is being massively flouted. And the fact that this isn't just Mallorca, it's just Biden policy. Well, who's the representative of that policy? It's my orcas.

Ex-CIA Official: Blinken Orchestrated Intel Letter on Hunter Laptop
"Our current Secretary of State Anthony blinken apparently was the individual back in 2020 2020, excuse me, who set in motion the events that led to that infamous letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials that claimed that the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation. So this came from Mike morrell, those of you who don't recognize that name, he was the former head of the CIA for various times throughout the Obama administration between 2010 and 2013. And he testified last week before the House judiciary committee that he received a phone call from our current Secretary of State Anthony blinken, who back then was a senior member of the Biden 2020 presidential campaign, he got this phone call on October 17th, 2020 that was just three days after the New York Post dropped this Hunter Biden laptop story bombshell. I know the date by heart, October 14th, 2020 because that's my birthday. That day that that came out also, it happens to be a Salem colleague, Charlie Kirk's birthday. Anyway, three days later, apparently Mike morrell got this call from Anthony blinken in which Anthony blinken wanted to enlist Mike morel to help discredit this true Hunter Biden laptop story. Mister morrell said before the House judiciary committee that the call was, quote, couch a simply gathering morale's reaction to the post story, but actually it wasn't that. It quote set in motion the events that led to the issuance of the public statement the public statement, of course, being the letter that said that the Hunter Biden laptop story had quote all of the classic earmarks of a Russian disinformation operation.

Manhattan DA sues Rep. Jordan over Trump indictment inquiry
"The House judiciary committee will be in New York City Monday for a hearing as part of a campaign to cast the democratic prosecutor who indicted Donald Trump as weak on violent crime.

Bragg said of Jordan really cared about public safety. He started in his home state of Ohio, where crime is reportedly higher than in New York, mayor Eric Adams, backs him. This is not about public safety. We're trending in the right direction. There districts are trending in the wrong direction.

Congressman Mike Johnson Lays Out a Chilling Story of FBI Spying
"Mike Johnson, who is the vice chairman of House Republicans. There's a great job. Congressman joins us rejoins us. He was with us recently. Congressman welcome back to the program. Tell us about this story. The FBI saw it to develop sources in Catholic churches, is it fair to say that possibly on Easter Sunday, the FBI had informants in plants at Catholic mass services across the country. It's a great question, Charlie, and we don't know. I mean, this sounds like something that's surreal, something that's made up, but we have the documents. We have whistleblowers within the FBI that have given us the information. And we know that the Richmond field office of the FBI. This is where it was originally begun. They sought to reach out to Catholic clergy and church leadership to recruit sources inside the churches so that they could monitor and report on their parishioners. It sounds, but that's what the government is engaged in. The FBI generated this memo in the Richmond field office, it was distributed to field offices around the country and Jim Jordan and I on the web position committee and House judiciary committee are pursuing this vigorously because we are demanding to answers to see how far and wide this went, how much damage was done. We just don't know yet. So, I mean, our audience is fired up over this and many other topics. An idea that has been floated is called fencing off the money, congressman, which for example, you might say, okay, we might not be able to close the FBI, nor do I know if they do some good work, obviously. But I mean, a lot of it should be shut down as a political operation. But fencing off the money would be something closer to, hey, all right, Christopher wray, you used the private jet to go to the adirondacks. That's going to be put on pause until we get actual answers and people are fired. Are these ideas being floated by you guys in House leadership at this time? Because at least that could put their the line items that the agency heads care about the most and you actually might be able to get answers. Yes. I mean, the short answer is yes. We talked about a couple weeks ago, you know, our hands are tied in some respect. We're just as frustrated as everybody else believe me. We've been chomping at the bit for the last couple of years to get a shot at this oversight, which is a critical constitutional responsibility that we have. You know. But we just got a majority in January and we just got subpoenaed power later that month. And so we're only a couple of months to three months into this right now. We're getting it up as quick as we can. Now, we can investigate, we can uncover these abuses and lay it bare for the American people to judge for themselves and then ultimately we have to reform these practices in abuses to make sure they never happen again,

Manhattan DA sues Rep. Jordan over Trump indictment inquiry
"Manhattan's top prosecutor has sued the House judiciary committee's chairman as the partisan wrangling over Donald Trump's prosecution continues. District attorney Alvin Bragg accuses GOP congressman Jim Jordan of a transparent campaign to intimidate and attack him over Bragg's prosecution of Trump. Jordan's judiciary panel has recently subpoenaed a former prosecutor who oversaw the investigation and has also sought documents and testimony from Bragg and his office. Bragg's asking to judge to invalidate existing subpoenas and others Jordan may issue, saying it's in a response to a brazen and unconstitutional attack by lawmakers at an ongoing criminal prosecution, Sagar Meghani, Washington.

Peter Kirsanow and Bob Frantz Discuss Biden's 'Trojan Horse'
"Begin our two now. With a special guest, somebody that I am a very familiar with. I've been interviewing him once a week, roughly for about the last 9 years. He is the longest serving commissioner on the United States commission on civil rights. It's a pretty important position. And his name is Peter kirsch now. He joins us here on America first. Peter good to have you, my friend. How are you, sir? I'm doing well done. Thanks for having me on. So you spend a little bit of time at the keyboard yesterday. It would appear. I've got a copy of a letter in front of me, dated March 2nd, addressed to chairman Jim Jordan. Chairman of the House judiciary committee. Chairman Jordan is being asked, it would appear and I'm going to let you tell us what you would like to see from him. To respond to what you call in your letter Pete, the Trojan horse that is, the quote executive order on further advancing racial equity and support for underserved communities through the federal government, which of course is Biden's executive order, which is of great concern to a lot of people. And you are obviously trying to alert chairman Jordan about that. What is it, first of all, tell us why you call it a Trojan horse. Because if you look at its implications, this is the scale of this is breathtaking. In my 40 plus years, the liberal employment lawyer in 20 plus years in the civil rights commission. I hadn't seen anything quite like this. It seems somewhat innocuous to the uninitiated. But to anybody who has been involved in civil rights ready for your period of time, especially if you're involved on the right. You know, precisely what's going on here in four year listeners, what this does is it mandates equity throughout every single federal agency. And that's just the beginning.

The FBI's Egregious Violations of Privacy Rights
"I talked about this on the podcast yesterday. Which is to say, I talked about how the FBI right after January 6th was pressuring banks to supply information to the FBI about individuals who had any connection with Washington D.C.. They went to Washington, D.C.. They stayed in hotels. They made credit card purchases in the larger D.C. area. And the FBI puts out a wide net. Now, how do we know about this? Because an FBI agent, a former FBI guy George Hill, testified before the House judiciary committee, and he goes the FBI was chasing people with absolutely no prior indication of having committed a crime. These were not the people who quote went into the capitol, the FBI had no idea if they did or didn't. They just said, let's catch everybody who was in the larger D.C. area and they were making their field offices follow up, get this bank information and then go check out those people. Look at their names, their social security numbers, perhaps their bank records, their criminal histories. This is a gross violation of privacy and a violation of our individual rights like as the government does have the right to take a look, but only if there's probable cause. Well, I mean, it also, you have to go back to the hearing with Nicole Parker, right? Yes, that's her name. Parker. Where she said, she actually admitted that the FBI, part of the FBI, was so politicized that they were playing politics, and that's exactly what these guys were doing. They were playing politics.

Rep. Jim Jordan Shares His Top Priorities
"The top of the agenda for you here in the House judiciary committee? I mean, you're off to a fast start. What are the top priorities for both oversight, but also making sure that we hold the Biden administration accountable? Well, the first priority is the border with why we had our first hearing immediately after that hearing that you just referenced there where we organized. We held a hearing on the border situation. And I think there are three fundamental questions. How did it happen? Why does it matter? How do we fix it? How it happened, we all know that. This is intentional, what the Biden administration has done because on day one, Joe Biden said, we are going to stop building the wall. We're not going to we're going to get rid of remain in Mexico to people seeking asylum. And we're not going to deport anyone. And then you get this flux influx of people, this unbelievable number, never seen in the history of our country, record numbers, month after month after month, 5 million 2 years. So that's how it happened. Why it matters is what we really tried to get across in our hearing on Wednesday where we had a father who lost a son to fentanyl. We had a deputy sheriff, excuse me, a county sheriff who talked about in his 38 years in law enforcement. Two years ago, he said was the best, the border situation has ever been. Today, it's the worst. I mean, it literally what he said. And he said, it's the worst because all the people coming across, but the crime, the cost of communities, the cost of schools, the cost of local hospitals, the cost of the entire country. The cost to our system, and then the focus on processing these individuals, what to Biden administration is doing. And then you can't catch the fentanyl and everything else in the smuggling and all the bad things that are happening coming across in outside the ports of entry. So that was why it matters and then of course what we're going to do in the committee is fix it by passing legislation that will immigration enforcement legislation that will change the policy back to the policy, frankly, we had under president Trump. That's what we're going to do. Joe Biden may not sign those bills, but our job is to pass them and show the country what actually works. So that'll be a huge focus. And then, of course, as you mentioned, the oversight because we do believe that our government now has been turned against the people and in many ways is targeting the very people it's supposed to represent and that we have a double standard of justice in the country.

"It seems to be that troubled soul. What role will judiciary play? What role will Congress play in trying to get to the bottom of what seems to be these many, many Biden family scandals. I think the oversight committee under chairman comer and the Intel committee will be mostly involved in looking at the potential influence of foreign actors and the banking issues and those things. I mean, Trevor comers talked about he wants to get access to the suspicious activity reports, it's been reported there over a 150 of these about the Biden, how they move money around and all. So I think that'll probably happen there. Our focus in the district committee will be on the unequal application of the law and it sure looks like that way when you look at how president Trump was treated in the classified document issue with him and how President Biden and frankly, secretary Clinton were treated. So we're focused on that because in this great country, you can not have a double standard. You can not have a unequal application of the law supposed to be equal treatment under the law in the greatest country ever. And right now, it sure doesn't seem like we have that. It seems like we have. And we've had dozens of whistleblowers come confirm what we all suspect about the Justice Department. FBI agents come to us as whistleblowers. It seems like we have a Justice Department that operates in a political fashion. If you're a pro life activist, praying in front of the clinic, you get arrested, you're at your house in front of your wife and kids, they kick in your door and arrest you. If you're one of the, I mean, hundreds and thousands of pro abortion activists in front of a Supreme Court Justice is home in direct violation of a statute, 18 USC section 1507, which says you can not be protesting in front of a justice's home with the intent of influence a pending case, a pending decision, which is exactly what they were doing. Nothing seems to happen to you. So this difference in double standard, the Americans are sick of it. We want equal application of the law, and that will be the focus. That part will be the focus in the judiciary committee. Well, as you know, mister chairman, millions of Americans are pulling for you. We appreciate all of your efforts on behalf of Ohio and the American people. Keep fighting the good fight. And let's hope you can come back and visit with us again real soon. We will. We will.

"Congressman coachman, I want to ask you a personal question if I may as it relates to the way you do your job and the way you have to function in the halls of Congress. There are a lot of noise this week about Adam Schiff and swalwell and Ilhan Omar being removed from their from their committees and chairmanships and all that. I mean, listen, that's a lot of noise. I mean, the idea that they're sitting there screaming, oh, this is partisan politics, is almost laughable. Can I ask you on a personal level how awkward it is to walk down the halls with some of these political opponents that Republicans have is it difficult to do business with these folks who seem to be unwilling to work with Republicans in any way, shape, or form? What's that like day to day? I actually try to say hello to folks and be cordial and just like you would. You're walking, you're going to say hello to folks. Do they say hello back to do they say hello back to you? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, for the most part, yeah, there are some Democrats, not the ones you were just talking there, but there's some who particularly during COVID. I mean, it was so ridiculous. If you didn't have a mask on in the hall, they were like pointing like, I haven't had it. I haven't had a few of them swear at me. And I'm like, I would never do that to you, but it's kind of sad. I think the bigger problem is that today's left is different from the left of ten, 12, 15 years ago. Right. I always say, one of my good friends is Dennis kusinich and truly a friend. I mean, we've had copy together. We're talking texts. We'll call me, he's a good guy, but he's an old school liberal who believes in the First Amendment. He's a lefty. He believes all kinds of crazy lefty things. He thinks I'm a crazy conservative. But he believes in the First Amendment he believes in healthy debate. You get your best hold, make your best argument. He'll do the same. Let's see what happens at the end of the day. And then we can get a cup of coffee. That is not today's left. Today's says, if you don't agree with them, you're not allowed to talk. And if you try, if you try to speak, they're going to call you racist. The president of the United States is going to stand in front of independence hall and calls fascist. I mean, they're going to come after you. And the cancel culture mob jumps in as well. So that is not healthy. And that's what we got to stop. You're right about the different breed. There's a different way of doing things from the left. And I remember many appearances I had on Fox News channel over the years with the late Alan combs. Allen was willing to disagree and do it civilly. And today, in fairness, look at speaking of Fox News, Harold Ford, congressman Harold Ford, seems to be a pretty simple guy. Yeah. I like the guy. That's a great job. Yeah, it's the kind of guy you can hang out with even if you have some different politics. It just seemed like a good I've never really met with him, didn't really serve with him, but it seems like a great guy. Yeah, he really is indeed final question congressman and we greatly appreciate you taking time with our audience and our listeners and viewers appreciate you very much here on the sale of news channel and on radio stations all over the country. Let's talk about the role of oversight the role of investigations, you know, we got lots of drama with Hunter Biden, lots of scandal with the classified documents.

"Do that. So I think we might be able to win some things there and we're certainly going to do that. We're going to need all the tools in our arsenal to try to get the country back and social media plays a role in this. I want to get your opinion about Facebook and Instagram, meta, inviting president Trump back onto those platforms, Twitter did show a couple of months ago. He has yet to tweet. He has yet to really indicate whether he's going to go back. I know he's got his own platform truth social. I don't know about you. I don't know about you, mister chairman, but I smell a rat. I feel a setup coming. I don't trust them. I don't think they're doing this out of the goodness of their heart. Would you advise president Trump to go back to these platforms or do you think he ought to stand pat with through social and stay away from Facebook and Twitter and Instagram? I leave that toll that president Trump, however, he wants to. I mean, he's one of the greatest communicators ever. I think he'll do what he wants to do there. What I want to get to the bottom of is what we've now learned because of Elon Musk, what we've now learned about this cozy relationship between big government and big tech and how they work to keep information from the American people. And again, God bless Elon Musk for the Twitter files. I've been reading through these now. I mean, it is truly unbelievable what they did and the bias that exists inside a big tech, and then to have the FBI encouraging that bias to keep information from we the people, days and weeks before the presidential election two years ago. I mean, this is unbelievable. So we are going to look at that issue because it is so fundamental to how our First Amendment is supposed to work and how it was how it was assaulted by these folks in the last couple of years. I'm also really intrigued that after two years all these tech giants have decided, yeah, now president Trump can come back. Why? What changed? What's different? If you're justification is that you're a prominent presidential candidate and you have a right to be heard, that standard should have applied two years ago. Yeah. Yeah, he should have never been kicked off. The idea that what was a Twitter kicked off president Trump at the eye toll it could still tweet on his platform. I mean, it made no sense. It made no sense whatsoever. It was a direct attack on the First Amendment because government people were encouraging it. There's one example where Adam Schiff was trying to get a journalist taken off of one of these plaque members of his Facebook or if it was Twitter. But you got the head of the House Intel committee, the key leader in the impeachment effort, trying to get a journalist taken down. I mean, talk about a direct attack on freedom of the press First Amendment freedom of the press. I mean, that is the kind of stuff that is scary. And frankly, it's the judiciary committee of the House of Representatives is supposed to be the committee. Most concerned about protecting the constitution, the Bill of Rights, our fundamental liberties, and to have someone like Adam Schiff attacking that and Jerry Nadler, I think in many ways the Democrats on the committee supporting that is just wrong..

"Congressman Jordan, welcome back to the Mike Gallagher show. Have you been, sir? I'm fine. Good to be with you, Mike. Thank you. Thanks for all you do. Well, thanks for what you do and you and I were on stage together in Ohio during our sale of battleground talkers tour. You light up a crowd, people are so grateful for people like you who are unwilling to bend and play nice with the other side. It's tough now because you got an entire you got a mishmash of people in the house. You got red meat Republicans. You have some establishment Republicans. It's almost, I guess, like hurting hurting cats a little bit. I know you must be heartbroken. It must be heartbroken for you to hear that your colleague Adam Schiff wants to run for Senate. This would be what a terrible loss. This would be for the house, huh? Yeah, yeah, no, I think he probably is going to run percent. I know we got another colleague who's she's announced as well. So we'll see. But look, we're going to be focused on doing what we told the American people we're going to do. There's certain bills we need to pass. I don't think Chuck Schumer will take them up, but we still need to pass them to fix the problems that Democrats have created. Then we need to do the oversight, the investigative work that's part of our constitutional duty. We need to do it in a way that's consistent with the constitution, unlike I think the way the Democrats have, but we need to do it and we need to do it vigorously and aggressively because I think that's what's warranted when you think about these unelected bureaucrats. I think they run our lives and then we need to deal with the crazy spending and we got the debt ceiling issue and some other things coming up. So I think that's going to be the focus of the Congress kind of those three areas and we should just get about doing that work and that's what we're going to that's what we're going to do. We've got a tight majority. So we're going to have to work together as you indicated. But I think we can get that done. I want to go down the list of things that you're going to tackle and of course that was the name of your book. Do what you said you would do, which I love about your constant mantra. And you said it on stage, there in Ohio that night. We got to do what we were elected to do. But before we get to that, we understand the obstacle with the still the Democrat controlled Senate. So there's going to be a real uphill battle. Are there areas of legislation are the things areas of agreement or some reason for optimism and if so, what are those? Where do you think Chuck Schumer's Senate might be willing to play ball with the Republican controlled House? I think there are very few. I mean, you think about what we've seen happening in two years, a border that's no longer a border, a military that can't meet its recruitment goals, bad energy policy bad education policy, record spending record inflation record debt. I don't think I'm going to really want to work with this on bills that we will pass to fix the border to deal with energy policy. I don't think they're going to be willing to work with us on those. We should still pass them as I said. To the country can see what we're for. And that frankly helps frame up the 2024 presidential contest, which will be so important. But I do think there's one area where I think this debt ceiling issue. Now think about the Democrats position right now. Democrats said our Democrats 5 weeks ago passed that 1.7 billion excuse me $1 trillion monstrosity of a bill funding all kinds of stupid things. And house Republicans were against it. And then one week ago, The White House says we will not negotiate with House Republicans on the debt ceiling. They simply need to just approve borrowing trillions of more dollars. Now think how crazy it is. You just passed a crazy bill that we were against, spending on plankton studies and salmon studies and given the FBI a $500 million increase. And now you're saying you're not going to negotiate. No one believes that. So we're going to be able to, I think, get some good things on the debt ceiling, maybe some good structural things like, oh, if we get to the end of the fiscal year and the appropriation process hasn't been completed, we don't just have some mad dash O, a government shutdown scenario. And we're going to spend the boatload more money like The White House wants to know. We'll just spend what we're currently spending. Just a CR. So we avoid that. Maybe one of the other things we should do is, you know what, if we're going to increase the borrowing authority and have more money, borrow more money, maybe the Senate for what something they haven't done in years, maybe they should have to pass a budget. You know, you go to a bank and you want to get a loan for a business, you got to show them a business plan for goodness sake. You have to show them a budget. So but somehow the United States Senate under Chuck Schumer did not have to.

Even as a special counsel has been appointed, The White House faces questions about its reluctance to publicly disclose the discovery late last year of documents marked classified at two Biden locations.

When the story broke it looked like it was all kind of The White House that had this all wrapped up in a bow with a ribbon on top.

Why Is AG Garland Slow to Investigate Biden Documents?
"Think we can agree senator cotton. I think we can agree that Ohio State and person in Georgia was the real national championship game. Well, he judging by the score last night versus last weekend. I think that you won't an argument for many people on that. Congratulations to the Georgia bulldogs and their second consecutive national championship. That's a big deal. Now, senator, I want to start your own judiciary. I am angry as only maybe lawyers can be angry about the fact that Joe Biden's classified documents have not been referred for review and possible prosecution for any irregularities to the special counsel Jack Smith who's been appointed to review the Donald Trump document. Same set of laws, same set of facts, both men are running for president. Why wouldn't Merrick Garland send them both to the special counsel? Well, I think your question is the thesis because the obvious reason is Merrick Garland doesn't want a special counsel poking around his democratic bosses, private papers and potentially targeting them for prosecution. The double standard here is obvious. And I think it's going to get very thorough review from the House judiciary committee and my friend chairman Jim Jordan, something tells me that dick Durbin in the Finnish judiciary committee won't be probing it carefully because the partisan double standard is so obvious here. It also suggests probably what should have been the case is that rather than sending Joe Biden matter to this special counsel. Donald Trump's matter should have never been sent to a special counsel that Merrick Garland should not have become the enforcer for a bunch of left wing librarians at the archives rather this matter should have been settled as I think these disputes have traditionally been settled in a series of ongoing negotiations and discussions between the lawyers for former presidents or vice presidents when they find that they have papers in their possession after leaving office and the archives claim that they have responsibility for. But there's going to be a thorough program confident in the House of Representatives of this obvious double standard.

But you want to see politics in in just full light.

Never pay attention to microsoft. Actually microsoft was largely left out of these bills. We just talked about. Megastar reached the two trillion dollar milestone. Just over two years after i passed the one trillion dollar market cap microsoft stock has gained sixty four percent since the pandemic lockdowns. People don't pay as much attention to them. In their power started in united states in march twenty twenty microsoft is also launching. Its new windows eleven this week. Remember how that used to be a big deal. It's back again.

So what do you think you know we. We've talked about such an adult hidden in all the cylinders here quietly so in the background he he was not it. There's a lot they got kind of got out of these bills. That made some changes where it only focuses on amazon apple and facebook and google. So what do you think what do you think. There's there's no getting around it it's It's actually the third company to two trillion. Saudi aramco hit briefly. That there's two things that that i think have pushed over two billion dollars. The first is a business reason. And then non-business business reason in that is they are cloud and i think the not only as cloud but they're kind of to purist play cloud because if you look at amazon you might not guess it's big cloudplayer even even if you look at Google but microsoft cloud trillion dollar club. Not those two volumes on you. They're not did. The question is which of those two will probably be next. I think it'll be amazon but anyways They're firing on all cylinders cloud enterprise software gaming but the other thing that they benefit from enormously. And it can't be underestimated is the likeability such an adela because to be because they haven't been subject was many scandals because we're not worried about Powerpoint weaponising an election or depressing on teens in such adela is really well liked. Microsoft has kinda gone from being darth vader to a wookey in that is just sort of big and powerful and quiet and likable. And i it as a result. This is huge because every time. Facebook google apple or amazon. Thank you know what we're missing a key component of supply chain here of our tech stack. Get the bankers in here here. The five companies would acquire reach out of them. They have to go well. Can we do that. Yeah and we do that whereas microsoft can just full steam ahead on their plan and there's probably acquisitions they've made that much to get out of this thing and they they these new bills they have award mobile in there which microsoft you know failed in the central and so it gets someone was a lobbyist. Was telling me like microsoft has called correctly and not correctly has deftly gotten out of these bills because they're very and another person that doesn't get as much attention not just such as brad smith he was sort of has been books about responsibility and this and that and he he sort of. He's the one that actually convinced gates in bomber to calm the fuck down essentially during that period and And so it's a really interesting because they are incredibly powerful and they do but they managed to slip out of a lot of things. Market cap by the way of amazon is one point seven seven trillion And google is one point. Six seven trillion. So they're getting close. They're getting close soon. Dr pichai got digging this week. A piece in the times about his lack of decision making a lot of executives leaving there and sort of become like an old thing but he's still facing enormous pressures around search.

They've made some really interesting purchases. The gaming stuff is fascinating. I think people have not paid as much attention to it Obviously windows is still used to be sort of scary.

Now They want some of this supporting materials released, so apparently there was some type of agreement. That had been reached there between the House Judiciary Committee and so the criminal contempt thing is not gonna happen, and that's not going forward. Then. All right, so they've been trying to call everybody back. Everybody that already testified before the House committee before the bipartisan Senate Committee on before Mueller. If you look at the amount of materials that were sent over, let's just start with the White House. The president allowed every single person That was requested to testify before any of these committees meeting the House investigation. The bipartisan Senate investigation then Mueller's investigation. Everyone that worked in the Trump White House. Not one person was told not to cooperate, just the opposite. They were all given permission and encouraged to testify. Frankly, it was unprecedented that they even allowed the White House counsel the time Don began to testify before Mueller for 30 hours. That's insanity. There's there's got to be on line in the sand somewhere. They sent over 1.5 million pages of documents of documents to the Special counsel's office. You know that that one time during this process that the president who had the right To invoke executive privilege. Did he ever invoke executive privilege. Senate. Intel had their own investigation, the House had their investigation. And they conducted scores of transcribed interviews. And by the way, we're waiting to get some of these closed door interviews released, we could know more about the deep state What happened and who did what When and where. And who said what, When and where. And You know, not watching these deep state actors all turn on each other's is getting interesting. So you had all of all of these investigations that have gone on repeatedly. And they've come up with nothing. And they're not going to come up with anything. That's that's the problem. And when you look at the law as it is As as it is written. You know, there's only so many times that You're gonna cooperate before it becomes abuse of their power.
