The Enemies List of the Secret Sensors
"I'm continuing my discussion of investigative reporter John Solomon's bombshell report on the outsourcing of censorship by the Biden, well, Biden regime. I'm not gonna hesitate to say it. They're acting like totalitarians. They don't really deserve to be called anything other than a regime. So they have an enemy's list. And who's on that enemies list? This is what is kind of revealing because the enemies list is now been disclosed. It's been uncovered. And here's who's on the list. I'm just going to read some of the names. Real James Woods. Gateway pundit, Donald Trump Jr., Tom fitton, Jack bishop. Eric Trump, Charlie Kirk, Mark Levin, James O'Keefe, Richard grenell. Harmeet Dylan, a Breitbart News. Robbie starbuck. So you have this list. These are the bad guys from the point of view of these of the Biden administration. They're also the bad guys from the point of view of these left wing nonprofits. So the working together to shut down the opposition and let's remember some of these guys, Robbie starbuck was running for Congress. So you're talking about election interference. You're also talking about silencing important influencers in the days and weeks leading up to a presidential election. Think about this. And they don't hesitate to do this. So to look at some concrete examples, well, Marjorie Taylor Greene is also on the list. I'm a little disappointed. I'm not on the list. He goes, no, no, no, no, no. But hey, I'm a little surprised I'm not on it, but nevertheless, to look at a couple of examples. They're going off, they want to restrict Paul gosar. Why? Because he's sharing project veritas videos about the about the Minnesota cash for ballot harvesting scheme.

"Right at radio. He's there. Carly and I'm Gerry McNamara. 866 90 red eye thing That gets me about what Durham came out with his that you know, you and I were always looking at. Where could he go? Where could he go? And it was like Mom. You were we were looking at The FBI agents or, you know, and and did they go through the proper procedure in the fires of warned? Never Did I think that I just We didn't know about it. So you couldn't think about it? You know, we knew that there possibly possibly was a conspiracy, but Nobody had ever connected the dots in any way. Right there. Never been any dot connected in any way. That's what Durham is attempting to do is connect all of those dots. With this environment indictment and I'd say that's what he's trying to do, because it's his allegation. You know, That's his allegation in the indictment, right so Uh, and what you see is so troubling. That I think that Democrats will do anything to try to move onto a different topic. I I I look at this, and I wonder again. All right. If this were the case, where there did he find any other wrongdoings related here And could we see anything else? Or is this I guess his best attempt before he was to get a report out to show Everything that was at work and do it through this indictment by listening to Richard Grenell. No, it's not the only thing. Yep, That's what we're to believe.

But if you want to get in on the whole of the Derm indictment will take some of your calls in comments following The top of the hour, but it just it takes that long. Religion go through everything really does, doesn't it when everything that we have covered over the last couple of years on it, but again, I just hope the American public and I'm talking about Republicans, Uh Trump supporters and independence. Look at this and and don't forget about it and that we don't live in the bubble of today. And we understand how the lies of the media and the Democrats in the first. Really, you think Think about it first, Uh, almost 3.5 years of the Trump presidency lied Yeah, completely The lied about everything. And now with the Durham, not just the indictment, but you're starting to see the roadmap that he's going down, Which is the road map that we always suspected and talked about a lot on this show. It will be interesting to see what we learn. I think Richard Grenell. Mentioned it that his report this final report is going to be Pretty unbelievable. Quite possibly will see it. Um And and and see if that's true when it does come out. But What we learned from the indictment itself. You know, I think in the 27 page indictment, Obviously, when you have an indictment, you've got to have everything. Um, you know, when you're moving on something like this, it's gotta be. It's gotta be real. You've got to be able to get to demonstrate to the court..

Carl jackson filling in for the great elderski. The number to call triple eight nine seven one seven two four three triple eight nine seven one seven two four three before we went to the break and i hope you call that first hour julie kelley and i ended up by ending parts of a letter that was written by one of the political prisoners of the january six protests. I do wanna finish that letter. That letter her up. I see many of you are calling in about shenanigans happening in california. I understand your concern but all we can do is get out the vote and i'm gonna take your calls. I wanna hear what What you have to say. I'm just going to encourage you. Yard signs knock on doors. Share the word Talk about the things that larry elder do. As a matter of fact. I'll break some of those things down. I was going to break them down in the third hour Maybe i'll just go ahead and break them down in the in the second hour so you guys have a little bit of amel because that's you know that's what it's gonna take people. Honestly they just people pe- when people have the wrong information. They arrive at the wrong conclusions. Say this all the time on my local show and democrats often have the wrong information so they arrive at the wrong conclusions. They think their policies work and then lo and behold a person like joe biden gets into office or gavin. Newsom gets into office. And there's no one there to connect the dots and the reason why they're so terrified. The left is so terrified of larry. Elder is because he's connecting the dots and it seems like you would think that this is such a simple thing but it isn't. That's why he did so well on radio for so long. The guy's an excellent communicator. And that matters but not only is he a great community communicator. He's a man of conviction. Why would he give up a lucrative job honestly you let's be real to go run for governor california. I mean the the guys amana conviction. Otherwise he he would not have done that he would not have taken the chains but that's because he loves you guys enough. He loves the state of california to make that call. Let me. I want to go back to this letter before i do. Let me just a couple of things that were sent to me from the forgotten man recall rick grenell tells recall candidate kevin faulkner to drop out of the race guys. It's time for god's say you guys. I mean listen i i respect the fact that you guys want to fight to win california but there's only one name that the left is concerned about so let's not tear them down. There's one name and you guys know who it is. It is larry elder it. Is that simple. So at this point the most effective thing you can do. If you love your state if you love the people of your state is go ahead drop out. Don't waste of time encourage people to vote. Yes to recall. Greasy gavin newsom and then to vote for larry elder. This is from the california globe as the california recall. Election of governor gavin newsom heats up richard grenell former ambassador to germany and acting director of national intelligence and california voter just to- gubernatorial candidate and former san diego mayor to drop out of the race. It's clear richard grenell says and quoting him here that this recall election is about the future of california. We need a new direction. Everyone can see. Just how a politician like gavin newsom has failed to successfully manage or state. Grinnell said this and said this monday in a statement his left wing policies have created more problems than he's been able to solve Kevin faulkners vision is not a conservative. One faulkner has been unable to embrace the broad type of change we need. He's a politician at a time. When we need bold solutions kevin faulkner should drop out of the race so a solid conservative can garner enough votes to replace newsom and guys this has to ultimately be the goal. And i don't listen. I'm not in california. So i don't know these guys well enough okay. But here's what i can say looking from afar looking from a state like florida all of the media. The only name that we hear out here is larry elder. So if he's reaching you know what i mean. If he's got that type of reach. This is your best shot. Do you are not going to get this opportunity again. It will not happen or it'll likely won't happen not again in your lifetime. Recent media tax on larryelder brought out the knives. Predictably republican recall candidates jumped on the bandwagon. This is the dumbest thing ever because this isn't a primary. i understand. Listen you're going through a republican primary. And they're treating it like a primary. I get it but there needs to be some type of brain shift because this is not a primary this is you better make gavin newsom lose first and then the second best folk it or understand. These people may want to be in the governor's mansion but when there's no momentum behind your campaign muan over just mu gone over and then help the next best candidate win but the number one goal should be if you love california to get rid of gavin newsom. It's ridiculous that republicans would jump on the bandwagon to attack. Elder makes absolutely no sense to me. The ap reported faulkner his hits gop rival or california recall. he heats up Faulkners now joining newsom in criticizing elder reflects. His knee for breakout moment. That can change the The history j honestly i. I don't even want to go further with this. Why don't waste your time rick. Grenell don't waste your time. Your best.

It was on the big screen another point so they earned a different direction. The players all love pete and thank them individually after the game and signed a ball for him and they Tweeted out a video of him sitting in his wheelchair and the player's head into the bus and stopping and thanking him congratulating him say hello.

"So that's it So again. Hey, Jim, I need a quote, buddy. I'm getting my ass kicked here in Arizona. People don't like politicians, but they like you because you're a trump guy. Can you say something Nice? Yeah, sure. You're an advocate for taxpayers in a conservative Awesome. Thank you. Does that do anything for you? That it is even trump endorsements, right? I mean in certain aspects. And we know who is full of it. And who isn't right. We do know this right? Maybe we're on our own talk radio bubble. Is that what it is? Maybe we are I mean, Trump came out and endorsed Martha over Dan McCarthy. Which I didn't like. Did it sway Who you voted for. We sat there and trump what are you doing? But in China, so I don't think those whose endorsements don't mean Jack squat. If this is the best, Matt Salmon can do mats in big trouble. That's in big trouble. Matt is tied to the swamp. Matter of fact, yesterday on Newsmax. Kari Lake is being interviewed by Richard Grenell, who, uh, was part of the Trump administration. He brings up Matt Salmon. I want you to hear what happened. Okay, this This is this is part of it. Here we go back. He's got good name. I d You've got good name, Eddie. How do you differentiate yourself from somebody like Matt Salmon? You said it right there. He has already made an attempt at this and it didn't go well. He lost back in 2000 and two He's gonna give it another shot, and that's a nice guy, but it didn't work out before and I don't think he has a broad appeal for the voters here in Arizona. We're not as right as we were back then Some people even say we are a purple state and leaning towards becoming a blue state. And since he ran for office in 2002 years, it is governor. He has become the chief lobbyist for a shoe. And we know that issue has had some issues under his tutelage as a lobbyist. There, he's snuggled up to the CCP run Confucius Institutes and He has snuggled up to the Chinese Communist Party, Confucius institutes. She is not pulling any punches. Now is she? Confucius institutes, and those are all all over college campuses. We've seen that before, And we know that, according to Senator Ted Cruz, they were on campus to infiltrate and to steal research. It's just not a good scene, and unfortunately, Matt hasn't announced that and a S U has had other problems. They were kind of the epicenter for this critical race theory that we've been seeing going through our school districts, and it's so concerning And that was the epicenter of it. Yes, you and Matt never spoke out against that. And that concerns me. I don't know if he spoke out privately against it, but I never heard him speak out publicly against critical race theory, And now we're seeing it run rampant through our school districts, and it's frankly it's poison is poison to our Children's mind. And it really did start over at their shoe. Wow. Um She just ran him over. Right, Matt Salmon, who is not doing anything publicly that I've seen in media. Besides give out press releases, right emailed statements to the media. People like me. And you have carry Lake who is literally over the target talking about the chai calms and critical race theory. You want to talk about endearing yourself to conservatives and Republicans. There it is. And she's right. Do you remember? I remember years ago. All right. I don't know if you're with me, or it was before when you were on the show. And you've been on the show for, like, six years. Now, this is where five years crazy, Um The issue is one of the first stories I talked about when they had a course called the problems with whiteness. Remember that? You think I'm a problem, don't you? I am a problem. You are a problem, but in a good way, I am a problem. I'm a problem problem and she's right. ESU. They were one of the first I remember the You know the campus reform the college fix these great websites that do a lot of stories and reporting on what happens on college campuses. Um they they they pointed it out and start it started. I was one of the first places that I've ever seen it. And he's part of that. So he's lobby. He's cozied up to the chai comes And on top of that. Lobbying at S. I mean, if there's anything, here's the thing If there's anything that conservatives don't like right now, I'm pretty sure it is. The chai calms their creation of the China virus and working with guys like Fauci and the Confucius Institutes that Trump wanted to get rid of. And he is. He is helping them over at a S U And then critical race theory, which we can't stand and and salmon oversaw it happening over there at ASU and didn't try to stop it. Wow. There's more, by the way. And I want to get into this brother. Do you think again? Are these endorsements going to do anything for you today Did I can't imagine like you listen to talk radio. You're a critical thinker. You're a free thinker. You get it, you get it. Um 880 can s t 8805678. I have much more to say about this, and there was also a question of follow up about the border. And it was again right over the target, man right now. Look, carries the only one and I'm not a carry spokesperson. I just when I see good candidates when I when I think they're good and again, I could be fooled right? She could come and say something totally stupid. I disagree with It may happen. I don't know. But out of all the people that have officially declared and I told you the four carry the Kim, you check the hyphenated lady from the border regions and Matt Salmon. It's not. It's not even It's not even close. And by the way she got on the ballot. She's got almost 9000 signatures. You need 7500. The other ones don't have it. You know that Martha McSally spent about $45,000 to get the signatures needed to get on the ballot for Senate. Uh, it's it's just right now. There is just a tidal wave and it's amazing to me again. How the establishment try so hard to try to stop that tidal wave. This is what's happening and This is momentum right now. Okay, and that that's a good thing for us. Because it looks like the McCain machine is dying will continue. I have more. Don't go anywhere. It's can istea the morning ritual with Garrett Lewis. Strong bill plumbing, air and.

"There are a lot of Gun owners, for instance, in California who are fearful of the government, and so they don't register to vote because they don't want the government knowing where they are or registering in case they ever come out their guns. We're gonna have to concentrate on 16 that problems problem and registering a Z. Many Californians as we can. New people and third The way we fund education in the state is atrocious. It's a one party system, and it's all about government schools that have failed black Hispanic Asian parents. We need to up end educational funding, and so my fix California is going to shoot to put a a ballot initiative. To the voters in California and 2022. Which will ask the electorate. Do you want the money? That the state has per pupil. To follow the student. Let the student in the family decide where to go. Let's create competition. It is unacceptable to tell Families who can't afford private school. They're all the families other than Gavin Newsom and his friends. If you can't afford private school, you are forced into the terrible, crappy school down the street. And so we have a lot of economically challenged families, middle class families. Are forced to go to government schools, and we gotta change that because we need competition within government schools and private schools. So my proposal to the voters is. Do you want the money? Your money that is spent on the on the pupils in this state. The students of California Do you want the money toe follow the student and the family's choice of where they think it's best for their child to go to school. I think overwhelmingly, people will say yes, they did it in Michigan. They did it in Florida, and it's about time that we stop letting the unions And the far left control schools and forced people in the government run schools, which are not performing.

But they weren't just engaging in a further word play. The why is important. Right. It must It must be something to be upset by the fact that President Trump had a gay cabinet member. In Richard Grenell. Confirmed. They're not confirmed. You take that little distinction and you go by the wayside. Why is it that gay liberals are shunning a gay man? And why is it that people better judge hasn't been one to stand up for other gay men and say, Don't forget Richard Grenell. We may disagree on 100 things, but he was there and good on him, and he shouldn't be thrown back into the closet because of his politics. That's not where people in the judge's maybe I'll get there. Maybe he'll learn decency. Maybe all that Scripture he read will finally just kick in. And I'll say, Hey, maybe you should be good to people and, hey, maybe abortion is bad. You never know. But I'm supposed to somehow looking people the judges this as this great leader in this this decent man. What's decent about watching another gay man, get forgotten about and erased from history. Why am I standing up for the gay men? Well, because I stand up for the very idea that you're allowed to be more than one thing. We have discussed many times that if you're black and conservative, you're not really black. That according to the political left if you're Jewish conservative, you're not really conservative. If you're a woman and conservative, you're not really a woman. If you're gay and conservative, you're not really gay. They do this time and time and time again, calling you a traitor. No, I'm not gay. But I've been called the trader because I was supportive of trump policies, as if somehow the trader to Judaism. Guy moves an embassy recognizes Jerusalem is the capital engages the Abraham accords. You know what Consider those things victories. Yeah. Yeah, he tells him jokes. The Republican Jewish Coalition nations have told and someone should tell him I'll gladly Tom. Hey, Here's why those jokes really fall flat. Here's the problem. Right. He didn't say to me that that people in Congress were Israel because they're getting paid off by the Jews. That was Ilhan Omar, another subject, then I'll get to But here you have Richard Grenell. He exists. He's real. It doesn't matter how many leftist blog's or websites or media folk want to pretend that that man doesn't exist. He exists. And he happens to be gay. And you know what the political rights said. He any good? They didn't care. This whole conversation of the political right on. Lee cares and hates this group of hates this group. It's a lie, and we all know it. You want to see Hate Watch how the political left erases him from history because he may be gay, but he's not the right kind of gay. You know, you don't mean by the right kind of gay, right? I mean, you gotta be although those like right, like good gay. You know what I mean? Good gay, You know that was the right political left game. You can't be political, right? Give me political, right and gay. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's what they're saying. Laying it out his clearance day. It is undeniable fashion. And now I'm supposed to believe that Pete Burner Judge is a good guy. That he's a leader. He can be. He can be a leader by saying, Hey, I see you a record deal. By the Grenelle put out a tweet. Congratulating Pete Buddha judge on being the second gay Cabinet member in history. Welcome to the club. That's good. That's really, really good. And what do we have from people to judge? I'm hoping something comes out. I really do. I am hoping that he actually lives up to what he espouses about the very idea of decency. Now. As for the work you could do as transportation secretary, I don't know. I don't know. He has gotten the talking points along with the rest that the thing to talk about is good paying union jobs. Everything has to be discussed and describes In the guise of good paying union jobs.

"To the present. Let's say the best is yet to come and post presidency. Print. Mr Trump's clout, the former president put putting Republicans on notice. Democrats are high alert. We've got the office of the former president is going to advance the interest of United States to carry on the agenda of his administration. He's back to Kelli Ward for a second term as chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party and former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for governor of Arkansas. He also He's been cut off from social media, but he did contact release a statement through his new political action Committee Save America. Hey, Tom Trump. Official. Former Office of Management Budget Director Russell bought announced yesterday the formation tomb or organizations to keep driving the momentum of the Trump agenda. These air again political action committees. That the president is out there. One as I mentioned was save America on well, Another one is America first, so he's active and he's not sitting on his laurels, forming acting former acting deny, Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell said Monday. That should have every liberal in the country listening intently. He said that President Trump told him on multiple occasions he wants to run for office again. Cornell also dismissed talk about Trump forming a Patriot Party, he said. Clearly, Donald Trump is Republican and should run again as a Republican. And, of course to think tanks, the center for American Restoration. And the American restoration action have been formed as well for the president and most GOP voters say the patron party's a good idea. Would immediately put Liz Cheney's Republican Party in third place. Again. Democrats get 46%, the Patriot Party 23% Republican 17 other 14%. But what that does prove, is that clearly a you split the Republican Party. It's to the benefit. Other Democrats and that's the reason why President Trump is not going to be any part. In fact, he disavowed yesterday for the Federal Election Commission says he has nothing to do with the Patriot Party. He's going to fight from within. And that is the game plan. We'll be hearing more. I'm sure in the coming days ahead for our country and for our Children, the best is yet to come. You know the Twitter? Of course.

"We're back with Joe Degenova legal analyst, Former U S attorney to the District of Columbia. Joe. Uh, Joe Manchin is seen as the moderate Democrat and the hope of a lot of Republicans. For maybe not pushing, ramming through everything that the Democrats want. He was on with Margaret Hoover on PBS news, and he suggested using the 14th amendment to remove Senator Ted Cruz and senators and congressmen Josh Holly. Excuse me. Senators Cruise in Holly from office, saying That's 14th Amendment. Section three says that no person shall be a senator or representative in Congress, who, having previously taken an oath is a member of Congress. To support the Constitution of the United States. Excusing she'll have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, Um, where is this? Something that even has any kind of life that we're just going to punish anyone who questioned Uh oh. Challenge. The results of the election, as Democrats have done in the past is well. Is that where we're going to go with this now? Well, that appears to be where we're going. The concept. Let's let's just remember what we're talking about here. Joe Manson, who usually has a pretty solid head on his shoulders, sounds a little a little off base with this one. Saying that just because Holly and Cruz Argues that you could legally and constitutionally contest electors from the state in the House of Representatives and on the Senate floor. Make arguments why the electors should not be recognized that that was insurrection and rebellion. There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that either Cruz or holy engaged in insurrection or rebellion, as those terms are defined in in law. So what is the purpose of this? Well, the purpose of this is to continue the political issue and have it hotly debated and waste Senate time. I can't imagine that mansion is actually going to go forward with that he would have to have a motion. A proposal a resolution on the Senate floor to remove two United States senators. Um I just don't see that happening again. You would need 67 votes the same number for a trial of impeachment. For the expulsion. What they're what he's moving for. By the way is not impeachment. Heard people talk about impeaching cruise and impeaching Holly. This is not an impeachment. This is a an expulsion from the Senate. It is true that the Senate in the house are the exclusive judges. The qualifications of their members other than age and citizenship. If you if you are old enough, and you reside in this state, you are elegant being and you have to be seated. They must Teach you They can throw you out for conduct unbecoming. But then that has to be done by a vote of 67 in the Senate. I do not see 67 votes to expel Uh, Cruise or Holly. And if there were 67, that would mean you need 17 Republican senators, and I assumed that those 17 would soon be defeated in their re election that most most Republican senators don't want to be defeated. And there may even be a Democrat, senator or two who thinks this is an unwise course to follow. Gotcha. Speaking of incitement, That's the basis by which D C Attorney general Karl Racine now claims that he's contemplating charges against both the president and anyone else who rallied the crowd last week Wednesday ahead of the violence we saw in the capital, suggesting that this may have been an effort at incitement on the part of the people on the mall. What do you think of this effort by the attorney General in D C to potentially go after the president with criminal charges? Well, uh, Mr Racing is the attorney general of the District of Columbia. He has jurisdiction over misdemeanor offenses. Any charge the human brain would be a misdemeanor. Again. The same language that applies to cruise and Holly applies all the people who attended the rally, and even those who spoke while people may not like some of the language. Some of what people have called in elegant language by the speakers. There was nothing in any of those speeches, which was an incitement to riot or it could be an insurrection or a rebellion. We now know that most of the people who committed Or who led acts of violence in the capital, all of whom should be locked up and put away as long as the law requires. After a fair trial, it seems to me that There were pre planted people who were up on the hill, beginning the actions the violent actions the illegal actions before the speeches were even finished on the mall. Don't think that they can link the language that in any of those speeches on the mall to any of the activities on the hill because they simply do not reach The level required by the statutes for an incitement to riot. They simply were not an incitement to right. I mean, if we think that incendiary political speech He's going to be the basis for criminal charges for motivating people to do violent acts. We are not going to have political speech anymore in this country. I mean, just go back and look at the speeches from the sixties and the seventies and the eighties and during the Civil war and you and you will see language that really will kind of frightened you, and none of that occurred on the mall on January, the sixth Joe in 30 seconds here. Can we look forward to any kind of declassification? Do you think of the next 48 hours? Maybe last next couple of days that the president's going to release something that's going to answer a lot of questions that people have about rules that were played by neat by people that we know the names of in the spying on the Trump campaign and the the wrongdoing that led up to all of the support your investigation. I certainly hope so. I don't think there's any reason not to do it. This notion of protecting sort, sources and methods is very important and we have to do that, as Richard Grenell said yesterday, But there's plenty of information that can be released. It says that it is embarrassing, which is why the intelligence community is trying to prevent its disclosure. This has nothing to do with sources and methods. This is about the embarrassing conduct of people inside the intelligence community and also about the brave behavior of many people inside the career intelligence bureaucracy. Who objected to what was going on in crossfire, Hurricane the Russian hopes and other things and who were trying to point out that what was being done was illegal and it had a minimum unconstitutional and very bad intelligence behavior. I hope it's released. There's no reason not to release it. Well, I hope so. Joe Degenova Thank you so much. You bet. 7.

Clearly China is going to be a very, very important issue that he's going to have to Be engaged in from the very beginning, but also interactions with Russia. We need to make sure that we're able to have a dialogue with Russia so we can deal with issues related to a nuclear arms control talks in the Middle East, especially Iran, and given recent developments throughout the Middle East in Yemen and Syria, Iraq and these are areas that Bill Burns has had a lot of experience over the years. So Gina Hospital is the current director of the first woman to head the agency. She seems to have remained out of the spotlight. How would you describe the agency under her tenure? What kind of culture will William Burns be walking into? Donald Trump has been very dismissive of intelligence. And I know that CIA officers really feel as though their hard work. Their sacrifices are not being used in a manner that really helps to contribute to our national security. So I think with the Biden in the White House and Bill Burns at the helm I'm going to be able to realize that the intelligence mission is as critically important as it was before Donald Trump came into office and their work is going to be appreciated. Recognized and used. I mean, really, can the CIA ever be considered a political again? I mean, given how radically the role of intelligence gathering Has been questioned and challenged in the trump era. Yeah, I think the CIA has performed in a political function even during the Trump administration. I think Donald Trump has tried to manipulate and exploit the intelligence process, and unfortunately he's had people like John Radcliffe and Richard Grenell at the as directors of National Intelligence really cater to his whims..

"Talking about tomorrow is the big day. Just have a tough time accepting that this is a president that has been able been one or two steps ahead of the Democrats every step of the way from the collusion attempt. From they. They threw $40 million at him in an investigation with Robert Mueller hey, survived that they tried to impeach him on this call to Ukraine. He survived that. And he knew and he warned about these mail in ballots. He knew it was coming. Nobody wanted to listen to him in the Republican Party, Unfortunately, hey, knew what was coming and he signed that executive order. Where he's supposed to get a report from the Deanna, in fact, that Richard Grenell, the former acting director of national Teligent, who was serving helping other president and I think in Nevada, He said. The president is a good position for the electoral vote showdown, he said. Quote every single time we tried to bring this forward to the courts. They've just been largely dismissive. So I think the rule of law the processes that on Wednesday We get to showcase this to the politicians and see where the chips fall and of quote, and the big question is how much if anything, will be largely declassified. Bruce will the president goes scorched Earth on the deep state tomorrow. Health. I think you should. I think it's past time, but whether it will run. I don't know. I truly think that that on the way, if if indeed he is on the way out that I think that he should just declassify Everything. Everything that has to do with swole everything it has to do with the phony dossier. Everything that has to do with all the slime you said to put up during the 3.5 4 years he's been in office. By the way we said earlier to follow the data science those same data, scientists In Arizona and in Georgia now have done Pennsylvania list of this 432,000 votes were removed from President Trump and at least 15 counties. In Pennsylvania. And they were largely counties. Guess where. Outside Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Sure that 432,000 votes just removed completely moved from from the president. That certainly I think Violent, allegedly wins Pennsylvania by 80,000 votes That would certainly largely affect the outcome. And this is new breaking news that the state of Wisconsin Has reportedly announced it will introduce a resolution this Thursday. To Dede certify the state's electoral college votes and award them to President Trump. So what's happening here is we're starting to see the state legislatures, Georgia Arizona. Wisconsin. Maybe Pennsylvania. Maybe Michigan will see they're now starting to realize what they certified was fraudulent. Which one the way is against the law. Uh, Thursday. That's the day to day Late. Dollar short, isn't it? I mean, if we're gonna actually see things play out tomorrow before they take the vote than wouldn't Thursday be a little late for Wisconsin and take that action. No, it Z not too late until January, 20th So again, this is Look, you're you're right. This is new territory. We're breaking new ground each and every day here in this election, But again, it's really, uh especially if Pence decides to delay. If he delays and he might do this tomorrow. He might open this up and go. Wait a minute. I've got dual electors from these seven states. What am I supposed to do with this? I can't determine. I'm not going to be the Person that determines who wins or who loses. This is good. I'm telling you, I think is best bet is to kick it back to the state legislatures. And when he delays that for Let's say 10 days that putz around January 16 On then the state legislatures can then look and they can either help hold special sessions and they can say will know we're going to keep what we have, or we're going to de certify the Biden electors s so we don't know which way that's going to go. But when you have Wisconsin Any of Georgia and you have Arizona right now, all looking to head in that direction, things going to get very, very. That's why the president said, And that one sound bite over the next couple of weeks. Yeah, well You've always been much more optimistic than I on this. Uh, I think the fix is in and it's very unlikely that it's going to play out the president's favor. I hope you're right. And I hope I'm wrong on this one. No, I think you're right. The fix is in on so but the question is, can the undo the fix? Can they catch the culprits of this massive, widespread criminal conspiracy to steal an election from the American people? That is a question coming up next Governor Hogan. Is basically insulting. Those of us who are not satisfied with the way this election was conducted will share that with you in just a second right now. Want to talk about a good buddy Vinny Steel in the uncertainty of today's headlines. If they're going to drag down the whole market.

"Think this is Colonel Denny Dillon. This is the final formation for this hour on front lines of freedom. Continue our conversation with Ambassador Richard Grenell. But the crisis facing our nation Rick besides China, what else is high on your priority list? Well, I think you touched on the fact that the elections were a real problem. And I think that the reality is is that you can look at the facts and see that The state of Ohio in the state of Florida are two states that 60% of voters voted by mail. And so we know that voting by mail can be safe. But if you look at Nevada in Pennsylvania and Michigan and Wisconsin and all these other states that really had Drastic problems and changed the rules for mail in ballots at the last minute. And certainly this was the first election for these states to have new rules towards mail in ballots. They think that by any rational discussion, any rational person can look at the facts and say that there was a problem in these other states who changed the rules on mailing ballots. And states like Ohio and Florida, who continue with their rules in place. They didn't have a problem. And so the difference in the change of rules are pretty Easy to understand. In Ohio and Florida. You had to request a mail in ballot. You personally would tell your county registrar What your addresses, So your address was really current. It was easy. It was. You can do a mail in ballot and we know that mail in ballots are convenient for a lot of people. You have to tell us where you are and who you are, and then we'll check and send view the official ballot. In other states. They sent out ballots to people who had not requested the ballot and didn't know the ballot was coming. And so a whole bunch of ballots, thousands and thousands tens of thousands Were left in garbage bins or apartment complex mail rooms or sent to the wrong address sent to dead people. I I got in trouble on Twitter. Because I posted two ballots, one toe, all woman and one to a man. Both of them were the parents of a friend of mine who gave me the pictures of the balance. And said My parents have been dead for 10 and 12 years respectively. And they got ballots from the state of California. And when I tweeted out the picture to say, Hey, why are we sending ballots? Two people have been dead for more than a decade. Have we not checked voter rolls in over a decade. This is outrageous. And yet in California it was a big yawn because the Democrats control the entire state and There is no check and balance. Our reporters in the state don't want to challenge the Democrats because that's their whole access on way of life. I'm getting stories is You know, they know the Democrats are going to keep quitting. So why would we challenge them? So our voter rolls in California are disaster. And Twitter actually kicked me off Twitter for 48 hours. Because I posted somebody's personal information. I took a picture of the ballot. I posted it. They didn't care that this person The son who received the ballots told me to post exactly the way it is so that it was authentic and real, and people could see that they sent it to addresses. There. You know, we're not good addresses. So when I posted that information, Twitter kicked me off because they have this community policing group that said that I shared personal information and what I said back to Twitter is why are you employing people? Who do community policing for social media site. If if if the community needs policing, Don't you think that if you saw two ballots That were sent to dead people that the community policing group should immediately say. Oh, the problem here is is that the state of California has sent dead people ballots. Maybe they should instead of kicking Ric Grenell off Twitter. Which is not a solution at all. Maybe they should try to solve community problems by going into the state of California and saying Hey, You said balance official ballots to two dead people. Don't you think you should clean up the rules? That would be something that Twitter could do usefully? That would help society and their community policing hires could actually be helping all of us rather than kick the conservative off Twitter for 48 hours. And punish the messenger. They failed to really do community policing in any real way. So fuck you off. Yeah, I look, I think that the whole point of that long story is to say that we have a problem. With mail in ballots in this country, and if we're going to continue being the leader of the free world, where our brand is about free and fair elections overseas and lecturing others Get their elections. Right then we're gonna have to do the hard work of cleaning up our voter rolls, asking people to have an idea to vote, which is Of unbelievable situation where we don't currently require ID's to vote. How that ever happened and why we have allowed. Democrats who call us racist for requiring ID's to vote is beyond May, but we have to get back to making some fundamental changes. So that we can ensure that our elections are free and fair. Why not have a sense of fairness and I don't buy any more. The left argument that somehow we're penalizing somebody. If we require an I d, or we could require them to ask for about it. That's that's a ridiculous argument, because otherwise we're in the position where Out of state residents, illegal aliens and dead people are voting in our elections, and that can't be. We can't allow that to continue. Ricky right? Because we cease to be the constitutional Republic that we are. If Our election is an honest and controlled. And accurate as you just described. That's awesome. Thank you, my friend. Well, thank you for having me. I really enjoyed speaking to you and hopefully your listeners learned something and please have me back. Rick, Don't worry.

Trump Taps John Ratcliffe for Director of National Intelligence
"It appears trump does plan to use a lot of ratcliffe announcing today that he will nominate Ratcliffe for Director of National Intelligence. Now ratcliffe name sounds familiar. It's because trump did this get and he did. He did this before he was nominated by trump for the same job last July and that nomination was pulled in early August because there was not enough support in the Senate among Republicans over concerns over rat cliffs credentials House Speaker. Nancy Pelosi responded to the nomination. In a statement saying quote Congressman Ratcliffe has shown an unacceptable embrace of conspiracy theories and clear disrespect and distrust of our law enforcement and Intelligence Patriots. That disqualify him from leading American intelligence community. We call upon the Senate to remember that they take an oath to protect America. Not The president and vote against this nomination joining me now. Representative Roger Christner Mortiz a Democrat from Illinois. A member of the House Permanent Select Cup Select Committee on intelligence with John. Ratcliffe UP Congressman. Good to see you again. This one's tricky side. John Ratcliffe for a second. There's a guy he's a guy who's GONNA have trouble getting confirmed there are Republicans have serious concerns and we can talk in a minute. About what the reasons for those concerns are however he's actually going to have trouble getting confirmed the president's other guy who put into place. Richard Grenell is also widely thought to be not qualified to be the director of National Intelligence. But he can only keep the job until March eleventh unless Ratcliffe doesn't get nominated anytime. Soon in which case Greg Elkins Day on the job. So there's some trickery involved here right right. It's something called the Federal Vacancies. Act And perhaps your audience already knows about it. But basically this act enables Grenell to stay for as long as the nomination is pending and then if it fails for another two hundred ten days so practically another seven months after that and then the president could nominate another person and so while we might succeed in other words. This is what the president does got a lot of acting people and he likes exactly he he does. And and Mr Grenell in particular Is is considered to be a political hack and the reason why people are so upset about Mr Grenell In part is that he is basically going to be administering a loyalty test to all the people in the intelligence community whom the president suspects as being part of the deep state and this review is going to basically happen during the pendency of this nomination of Mr Ratcliffe and maybe beyond and grave damage could be done not only to the intelligence community but our national security in the meantime right. And here's the issue and I want to remind people about the history behind the director of National Intelligence and the intelligence problems that contributed to nine eleven. Right there was. There's some thinking and I want to Monday morning quarterback but there's some thinking that if all our intelligence organizations had shared their information properly we might have been able to prevent nine eleven. The director of national television's is the person who's supposed to do that. They should be the best informed. Smartest most qualified person in this country. Correct and that does not seem to be a priority to this president. No and and this kind of takes us to pivot point right now which is Is Is the intelligence community going to be led by someone who lives in the world of truth or is it going to be someone who lives in the world of propaganda and in the world of propaganda? You Know Truth Tellers are silenced and political loyalties are rewarded. But we know what that world looks like. We don't have to look further than China and the Corona Corona virus. China is a world of propaganda silence. The critics say silence the truth tellers and now they helped spawn a global pandemic. That's going to kill a lot of people unfortunately and heard a lot of hurt a lot of Americans too so this is why this is a consequence of lying. A little under the radar. But I think this is a a remarkable importance. I'm glad you join me tonight. To talk about a congressman Roger Crystal Mosey. Thank you as always

Richard Grenell is a disastrous DNI choice
"President trump has long been accused of priding loyalty to him above all other qualities. Way above experience way above independence. His critics such as house speaker. Nancy Pelosi today are arguing that the appointment of Richard Grenell to be the acting director of national intelligence is just the latest case in point. Grenell the current. Us Ambassador to Germany is hardly known for his intelligence expertise. He is primarily known and beloved by conservatives for his outspoken defense advocacy of the president and his policies as C. N. N.'s. Alex Marquardt reports. Grenell also has a long history of rhetorical knife fighting as a fierce even vicious partisan the director of national intelligence is a job that by definition demands experience requires objective presentation of intelligence and a non political approach in Rick Grenell. The president has chosen. The direct opposite are found. The position of director. Nash intelligence a very tough. And so I I can't imagine The challenge that somebody has in that position learning. Abc's of intelligence on the job. American critics like Democratic Senator Ron Wyden on the Senate intelligence committee blasting the choice today as proof that president trump values unquestioning obedience over the safety of the American people. That sentiment echoed by House Speaker. Nancy Pelosi today. Who said Grenell's sole qualification is his absolute loyalty to the President Senior. Republicans though are silent over making Grenell. The acting director which by law is someone who shall have extensive national security expertise. Grenell has no intelligence or military experience. He's the current ambassador to Germany. A loyal attack dog for president trump. Who has a history of vulgar sexist now deleted tweets about women including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former first lady? Michelle Obama saying Michelle. Obama is working out on the biggest loser. She is sweating on the East Room's carpet. There are times where what was intended to be. Humorous turned out to be not so humorous. While many trump allies want to see the president tweet less Grenell supports. It makes my job so much easier. I like having a president who's willing to be very tough. Grenell replaces acting Director Joseph. Maguire a retired admiral and former navy seal who has been leaving the intelligence communities seventeen different organizations since last August McGuire had stayed under the president's radar rarely speaking in public. But he did voice his support for the whistle blower who sparked the investigation that led to the impeachment of president trump. I want to stress that I believe that the whistle blower and the inspector general have acted in good faith throughout so jake. This now means that yet another player in this Ukraine investigation. Joseph Maguire is being pushed out the news coming the same day that a top Pentagon official John Rude who is also involved was asked to resign truth tellers and non loyalists clearly not valued by the trump administration. Meanwhile Rick Grenell tweeted today that this is a temporary appointment and that the president will nominate someone else to be Director of National Intelligence. Soon

White House commended the move this Morning NPR's Sarah McCarron has been following this and joins us down, the studio Sarah what, can you, tell us about this man Yawkey Polly well, he. Was born in what was then. Poland and what's now Ukraine and this is important, because, this was a long time ago and he's a man not quite without a country but that. No country has wanted to claim because of his involvement in, Nazi concentration camps in World War Two he worked in nineteen forty-three at. A German concentration camp in what was German occupied Poland. Later that same year thousands of. Jewish people were shot to death in. A mass execution at that camp, and, this man is not accused of participating directly in that event but he is accused of persecuting people at that camp.

Investigations into Nazi war? Crimes was denaturalized in two thousand three ordered deported the next year and that appeal was denied in two thousand, five but he remained in the country right so why he was ordered to be deported. After the US government, found out who he actually was and then and then he stayed well it just comes down to the fact, that that these other countries didn't want to take him ambassador Richard Grenell the embassador.

Many years ambassador Grenell says, he brought this up repeatedly With the new German government with his. Counterparts there and decided to make a moral case they saw this as a moral obligation that they had not so much, a legal obligation this individual was not is not, a German citizen so the moral, obligation? Because this individual served it in the name of the former German government and so he is back in Germany they say he was taken. Out from his home in queens on a stretcher he's a very old man not clear exactly what, happens to. Him legally at this, point go through some kind of trials you could not entirely clear he, has a very old. Man but officials say.
