| Ladies and gentlemen, here we are with a live- Ladies and gentlemen, and this is a live shot. | ||
| A live shot in Washington, D.C., the press bus, Donald Trump on his way to be arraigned inside of Washington. | ||
| Donald Trump just left the plane as he landed in Washington, D.C. and walked out to the waiting vehicles. | ||
| Again, this is our live shot from the press vehicle in Washington, D.C. You are inside of the motorcade here with us. | ||
| They are traveling to the courthouse in Washington, D.C., where, again, Donald Trump will face the high crimes of believing what he thought happened in the election actually happened and then telling that to people. | ||
| Yes, those are what they are charging Donald Trump with, along with saying that you should peacefully protest at the Capitol. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, here we are once again inside of the motorcade traveling through Washington, D.C. on their way to the district federal courthouse. | ||
| Donald Trump leaving the plane moments ago. | ||
| Here's what the man looked like. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mr. President! | |
| you That is Donald Trump walking off the man versus the machine, or better yet, the ghosts inside of the machine. | ||
| Donald Trump leaving his plane, looking quite chipper, actually. | ||
| He's not shaking. | ||
| He's not fearful. | ||
| He was nodding and winking and walking. | ||
| With his classic Donald Trump swagger. | ||
| Here we are. | ||
| I know D.C. quite well. | ||
| There is the vehicle traveling underneath the tunnels on their way through Washington, D.C. We are again, once again, inside of the press car with Donald Trump. | ||
| I'm so excited that we have this footage for you. | ||
| You are traveling physically with the president. | ||
| That is the vehicle the president is in right there. | ||
| Let's make this shot a little bigger, please. | ||
| So here what we are seeing is we are going underneath the National Mall. | ||
| That is what you're seeing. | ||
| You're going to have a glitch in some of the broadcasts because you are in a massive tunnel right now. | ||
| So don't be distracted by the darkness or the flashing lights. | ||
| You are literally under the Lincoln Memorial right now. | ||
| Or probably the World War II or Washington Memorial. | ||
| You know the Washington Memorial. | ||
| This is where they are right now. | ||
| This is them traveling underneath this massive five-lane tunnel under the city and on their way to the D.C. courthouse. | ||
| They're going to emerge here from the top of this exit in the tunnel, and they're going to be at the courthouse. | ||
| You see the cop there paving the way for this motorcade. | ||
| They're going to be at the federal courthouse very quickly at the top of this tunnel. | ||
| They're going under the Department of Labor right now. | ||
| The arrest of Donald Trump for the crime of speaking his mind and saying what he believed about the 2020 election. | ||
| Donald Trump will be facing his charges before a D.C. judge. | ||
| A federal judge who worked with Hunter Biden, who worked on the Steele dossier, and who worked for Fusion GPS. | ||
| A corrupt, crooked judge who has the mendacity to charge January 6th defendants with more time than the federal government asked for. | ||
| This wretched judge. | ||
| Now we are on the street here, ladies and gentlemen, no longer in the press car. | ||
| That is Donald Trump's vehicle right there. | ||
| Donald Trump's vehicle is now pulling up to the front of the courthouse. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump is pulling up to the front of the courthouse and they are now going to perhaps enter inside. | ||
| Donald Trump travels into the building in one of those black SUVs. | ||
| Impossible to see with the blacked out window which one contained Donald Trump. | ||
| The press vehicle has been stopped. | ||
| It will not travel with the official motorcade into the bowels of a Washington, D.C. courthouse. | ||
| There, the last few cars inside of the motorcade continues apace. | ||
| Inside the Washington, D.C. courthouse with that horrific, brutalist architecture, the hideous architecture all throughout Washington, D.C., oppressive and Soviet, meant to Enforce down upon you the power of the state. | ||
| Donald Trump exiting his plane at Ronald Reagan National Airport, and it is just a mile or two to the courthouse. | ||
| And you could see there, we were in the car for effectively the entire time. | ||
| Donald Trump got to the courthouse quickly. | ||
| And now the press vans are parking, and you can see the police barricade there, the garrison there in front of the courthouse. | ||
| Will we see Donald Trump? | ||
| Donald Trump is early. | ||
| It is 3.16 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. | ||
| He is to present himself before the judge at 4 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. | ||
| Everything is early today. | ||
| Donald Trump walked off his plane at 3 o 'clock sharp. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, again, Donald Trump's plane departed from his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, and Donald Trump walking off does not seem phased. | ||
| I don't want to play the clip too much, but I do want to show you the nature of the man in a very crisp clip of what Donald Trump looked like when he exited. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't want to show you the nature of the man in a very crisp clip of what Donald Trump looked like. | |
| I don't want to show you the nature of the man in a very crisp clip of what Donald Trump looked like. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, that absolutely fanatical report that you hear the report. | ||
| You want to stay tuned? | ||
| We have multiple live feeds that we are monitoring from the courthouse in Washington, D.C. We have been monitoring the front of the courthouse in Washington, D.C. The front of the courthouse in Washington, D.C. looks like this today. | ||
| They said, charge Donald Trump! | ||
| Hey, Jack! | ||
| Charge Donald Trump in Washington, D.C. because there will be no Trump supporters there. | ||
| And what do we see before the courthouse starting at 9 a.m. | ||
| this morning? | ||
| Is there any music to this? | ||
| No? | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is a man versus the machine. | ||
| A man with a gigantic Trump flag in front of the Pettymen. | ||
| United States Courthouse in Washington, D.C. Well, there are moments of clairvoyance, even at Fox News as Donald Trump departed his plane. | ||
| Again, we will not miss anything on this program. | ||
| We will not miss a moment. | ||
| We have our entire producer team online. | ||
| Ready to go. | ||
| And we will be joined by a number of special guests on this program. | ||
| But, ladies and gentlemen, even on Fox News, they are saying the world sees what this is. | ||
| This is a prosecution and persecution of the man who could destroy the machine. | ||
| This is them attempting to take Donald Trump off the table. | ||
| Something that was put forth to me that I thought was very fascinating is, well, you can't run for federal office. | ||
| What if you are a convicted felon? | ||
| And what if they convict Donald Trump and then blue state attorney generals keep his name off the ballot in 2024? | ||
| What if that's the play here? | ||
| Just get him on one felony and then you're able to effectively keep him off the ballot. | ||
| It's why our friend Mike Davis, the best attorney in Washington, who will be joining us actually quite soon, said you need to put a rider inside of any budget for the Republican-controlled Congress that no federal funds can be used to prosecute presidential candidates while they're running for election. | ||
| Do you agree with that? | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, you may, this could be very rare, agree with this clip from Fox News as they covered Trump's departure from his plane, saying the world sees this for the fraud. | ||
| That it is. | ||
| And Jessica Tarloff, co-host of The Five and a Fox News contributor. | ||
| Great to have all three of you with us this afternoon. | ||
| Thank you very much for being here. | ||
| So, Dana, let me start with you. | ||
| Your thoughts as we watch this play out. | ||
| Well, it's strange to think that this is unprecedented and historic and also routine and kind of boring. | ||
| Because, as David Swan just said, this is the third time. | ||
| This is a different case. | ||
| This is about January 6th. | ||
| When the indictment came out the other day, I thought when I read it, I would get new information. | ||
| And I read the whole thing, and I thought, how is it that I know all of this? | ||
| They spent all of this time doing all this investigation, and they put together things that you could have found that was already in a Google search. | ||
| I actually don't understand how that's possible, that they went forward with that. | ||
| The other thing is, is that they have made a strategic decision at the Justice Department to just name Donald Trump and not the other co-conspirators who are numbered. | ||
| In the docket, and that's because they want this case to go to trial before the election. | ||
| And that is why I think a lot of people aren't out there protesting, because they think, one, it's political, or two, it's not going to work, or three, if you're a Democrat, and I'll speak for the Democrats or the Republicans, and Jessica can tell me their point of view, but in some ways, as I read their coverage, they feel a little deflated, and they don't think this is necessarily going to be the slam dunk that they thought, especially when the New York Times poll comes out this week. | ||
| And shows, regardless of all this information, of all the Trump legal troubles, that Biden and Trump are tied 43-43. | ||
| Yeah, it's pretty stunning, especially when you look at the numbers of people who say that they don't want either of these individuals to be the candidate. | ||
| 43-43%. | ||
| Shannon, it's very interesting to read that Truth Social post from the former president. | ||
| He clearly is leaning into all of this politically. | ||
| He's saying, I am doing this for you. | ||
| He is an excellent... | ||
| He has an excellent ear for what is resonating with people, and he can feel, he sees that the poll that really stood out to me, 71% of Republicans say that it's time to stick with President Trump. | ||
| Stand behind, I think, are the words there. | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| Yeah, and this only helps him. | ||
| We've seen every time there's an indictment, it helps in fundraising, it helps in polling, and this is good messaging for him. | ||
| Months ago, before the first indictment here in New York, he was asked, will you drop out of the race if you'll get indicted? | ||
| And he said no. | ||
| I think it will help my numbers. | ||
| I mean, he's very prescient about that. | ||
| Like you said, he's got a good ear for these things and he understands. | ||
| And, you know, not far from where he's going to be by the Capitol, by the White House, another block past that is the U.S. Supreme Court. | ||
| And that's where some of these things may end up because these are all uncharted territory. | ||
| Brand new cases, brand new theories. | ||
| In many ways, to see a former president facing dozens and dozens of criminal charges, these are questions that could end up there with those justices, three of them who came on his watch. | ||
| So a lot of legal wrangling to go. | ||
| The judge he's going to ultimately face in this case has been very tough on the January 6th defendants who have come before. | ||
| She's sentenced 38. All of them have gotten prison time. | ||
| She's ruled in 2021 against the president on something regarding documents for the January 6th committee. | ||
| His team has got a very, very long uphill battle with this judge and jury probably in D.C. too. | ||
| Yeah, I just want to follow up with one thing there. | ||
| Do you think that these cases go to trial before the election? | ||
| I have doubts about that. | ||
| I mean, there's so much pretrial wrangling that you do motions, interlocutory appeals, especially in the Mar-a-Lago case. | ||
| You've got so many classified documents there that people will file challenges to. | ||
| You have to winnow all that down before you can actually take it to a jury. | ||
| So I have real doubts that the federal cases could get there. | ||
| So, ladies and gentlemen, that was just the back and forth on Fox News. | ||
| Again, as you traveled in the vehicle with us through Washington, D.C., we have a live shot in front of you. | ||
| You will be able to see live shots from all around the nation's capital today. | ||
| Wow! | ||
| There's somebody with a sign that says, Drop Dead Trader! | ||
| Got it. | ||
| A very loved person. | ||
| Someone who definitely won't die and be eaten by her cats before anyone notices. | ||
| We have also other protesters all throughout Washington, D.C. D.C. is a bit of a powder keg right now. | ||
| There are the blacks for Trump who have been marching through Washington, D.C. These are black Trump supporters. | ||
| Marching through Washington, doing interviews with the press. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm here to support Trump. | |
| My brother's gonna come over here. | ||
| I want them over here with me. | ||
| Come over here. | ||
| So I'm here to show Jack Smith that he's a punk. | ||
| And that he's an ugly sellout. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And I'm here to let him know that he's going to jail for treason. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Him and Biden and Obama and all of the other suckers that are going against Trump for no reason. | ||
| They want to parade the man that we call King Cyrus like they did in every other country. | ||
| They have conquered the country and parade the king around in handcuffs to humiliate us. | ||
| But I'm here to testify. | ||
| That you will be humiliating. | ||
| That's right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because I'm here to humiliate you. | |
| Because you are a sellout and you are a person that is evil, breaking every rule and law. | ||
| And the Bible says the sons of tradition must be revealed and moved out of the way. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| We're simply allowing them to reveal how they don't have to keep no laws. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| We have to keep all laws. | ||
| We can't do nothing. | ||
| We run a red light when we go to jail. | ||
| These people here are free. | ||
| I mean, Hunter Biden, look at this little punk. | ||
| This dude is free to snort coke on camera, get guns, break every ruling law, don't pay taxes. | ||
| They don't even want to put him in jail. | ||
| But if I did it, you're going to jail for 9,216 years. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| That's unfair. | ||
| Because you know what that is? | ||
| Exodus 1249, the Bible said there should be one law for all. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| As does the 14th Amendment. | ||
| So I'm here to make sure Give me my rights. | ||
| Give me liberty or give you death. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And that's what it is. | ||
| If we're not playing with y 'all, you understand? | ||
| We real black men. | ||
| All these people out here that call themselves the press that's ignoring us, that's because they're East Indian, Arabs, and Pakistanis. | ||
| That's how I know who Ishmael is. | ||
| And you're the one I'm going to get. | ||
| You're going to hell, punks. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Blacks for Trump. | ||
| Blacks for Trump. | ||
| Yeah, I'm talking about you. | ||
| Backs for Trump! | ||
| Boom! | ||
| You're going to heel! | ||
| And then he says the line that I think is really great, which is like, dude, you'd lock me up. | ||
| If I did what Hunter Biden did, did you see my skin color? | ||
| If I did what Hunter Biden did, you would lock, Joe Biden would lock me up for 12,761 years. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Woo! | |
| Spit and fire! | ||
| That man was not lying either. | ||
| And was telling the truth. | ||
| Joe Biden did pass the most stringent must-prosecute crack laws in all of America. | ||
| Mandatory minimums for every judge for anyone caught with a crack rock. | ||
| Joe Biden also passed some of the strictest gun control laws in all of America. | ||
| His son broke all of them. | ||
| Joe Biden hasn't passed any sex trafficking laws in America. | ||
| Curious that. | ||
| Somebody should go find Joe Biden in the shower with his daughter and ask him a question about that. | ||
| There are also other people wandering through Washington, D.C. I look forward to the comments section on this one. | ||
| Here is the liberal wing. | ||
| Seemingly having themselves a Maoist struggle session. | ||
| The world's largest psychiatry couch here in front of the DOJ as people with the inflatable Donald Trump dolls coming back into fashion. | ||
| Here, check this out. | ||
| I think we'll be able to play it here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There is the... | |
| There's the person in an inflatable Trump outfit. | ||
| Oh, and there's the guy. | ||
| There's the guy. | ||
| Oh, my God. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's the guy who got arrested No, Jake, Trump, to be your dictator anymore. | |
| I'm taking my name off the ballot. | ||
| Listen to these guys. | ||
| Look at these guys. | ||
| They were very loved as children. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Okay. | ||
| This is the guy, the guy in the prison outfit? | ||
| That's the guy who ran in front of Trump's motorcade last time. | ||
| And almost got hit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Almost got hit. | |
| There are also free January 6th protesters that are out in Washington, D.C. Check this out. | ||
| Another group of good people calling for the freeing of the protesters who've been locked up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Free January 6th! | |
| Free January 6th! | ||
| By the dictators in Washington, D.C. All right. | ||
| So there are plenty of people out and about. | ||
| This is the free, the January 6th political prisoners. | ||
| I certainly agree with these people 100%. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, D.C. has certainly turned into a gulow. | ||
| Let's go back to the live shot of what is happening right now, because that happened earlier. | ||
| We have Trump flags. | ||
| This is happening live in front of the court. | ||
| It is 3.30 now, 3.30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. | ||
| Donald Trump is supposed to be arraigned at 4 o 'clock. | ||
| This doesn't take long. | ||
| They read the charges before Donald Trump, and then he walks, right? | ||
| Based on our sources, Donald Trump is not going to get fingerprinted. | ||
| He is not going to get a mugshot once more. | ||
| He is not going to get handcuffed. | ||
| Donald Trump is going to walk into that courtroom, slam the table, say, not guilty, y 'all got to feel me, and then bounce. | ||
| But, let it be known, dear viewer, that the last time this happened, Donald Trump stopped in. | ||
| At a famous bakery in Miami, got out, gave a speech, got out of the car, waved at everyone, talked to reporters, talked to people inside, saying happy birthday. | ||
| Do you remember that? | ||
| It was bedlam. | ||
| Wild. | ||
| So you have no idea what could happen. | ||
| There is absolutely no telling what may happen. | ||
| Now, I am particularly interested in something that they are charging Donald Trump with, which is contesting the election. | ||
| So... | ||
| First off, our favorite lawyer, one of the lawyers who is a deep and dear friend of the show, I call him my own personal attorney, Mike Davis. | ||
| He was on, just a moment ago, Newsmax, saying, yo, contesting the election is not illegal. | ||
| In fact, it is important and a constitutional right for all of us. | ||
| Mike Davis making a great point here, and you're going to love what we do here. | ||
| In just a moment, we're going to show you how CNN agrees with Mike. | ||
| Jack Smith knows that this is a dog of a case. | ||
| This is a political scud missile launched at President Trump because they fear President Trump is going to win the White House back in November of 2024. | ||
| This is a dog of a legal case. | ||
| This activity that they're charging President Trump with, even if everything they're alleging is true. | ||
| Which it's not, but even if it's all true, this is activity protected by the First Amendment. | ||
| It is not illegal to challenge elections in the United States of America. | ||
| It's only illegal to challenge elections in third-world Marxist hellholes. | ||
| That's why Democrats were not charged for challenging Republican presidential wins in 1968, 2000, 2004, and 2016. | ||
| In my lifetime, I'm 37 years old. | ||
| In my lifetime, and all of you watching most likely were at the very least born in the year 2005. | ||
| Maybe not. | ||
| We have some young viewers. | ||
| But if you remember the year 2005, you'll remember that 37 members of the United States House Democrats, along with Barbara Boxer in the Senate, challenged the election and tried to flip. | ||
| The electoral votes in Ohio, thus handing the election to John Kerry. | ||
| They went all the way through to the Senate, gave speeches, started screaming, demanding that Ohio overturn their electoral votes, split their vote, and vote differently, handing the election to John Kerry. | ||
| This is well documented. | ||
| This was a long and arduous process that required multiple speeches from the floor, and they didn't end up winning. | ||
| But none of them went to prison. | ||
| Conversely, that same guy, George W. Bush, correction, who won the election in 2004, that same guy, by every measure of what they're charging Trump with, should have put Al Gore in prison. | ||
| Al Gore went and made a cottage industry out of declaring himself the winner of the 2000 election. | ||
| Al Gore traveled the world saying that he was the president. | ||
| Stacey Abrams has traveled the country saying that she's the governor of Georgia. | ||
| Hillary Clinton has gone coast to coast, north to south, east to west, saying that she is the rightful president of the United States. | ||
| Where the hell are the prison cells for these people? | ||
| You gotta build bigger prisons. | ||
| Oh, wait, Benny, you might say. | ||
| I watched CNN this one time, and they actually had real news on, and I got that clip for you. | ||
| Maybe the only time in my programming that I will tell you CNN dead on. | ||
| I'm about to play you 120 seconds of CNN nailing it. | ||
| CNN with the receipts. | ||
| This was before the 2020 election. | ||
| Van Jones, guy who worked for Obama, disgraced. | ||
| Okay, so whenever you're disgraced, you work in a Democrat administration, you schlep on over to CNN. | ||
| Van Jones went on and gave fire. | ||
| For 120 straight seconds on CNN describing how legal and actually what a right we have, an obligation we have as Americans to contest elections. | ||
| This is a deeply inconvenient piece of historical evidence broadcast on CNN and they nail it. | ||
| Watch this. | ||
| Vice President, federal law says all election disputes at the state level need to be wrapped up by December 8th so the electors can cast their ballots on December the 14th. | ||
| Now, each state governor has got to certify the elector's votes and then send them on to Congress. | ||
| So the results aren't official until the new Congress counts those ballots on January the 6th. | ||
| Now, it's usually a straightforward process, but let's say one of the candidates questions the legitimacy of the state's count. | ||
| The governor could choose not to certify the elector's votes. | ||
| Or, though this is really unlikely, the state legislature could decide to contest the election. | ||
| And send a different count to Congress, meaning Congress could end up with no results or with competing results from the same state. | ||
| Now, that's a violation of federal law, so Congress would no longer have to honor that state's electors at all. | ||
| Now, the House and the Senate can then decide which result is valid or throw out the votes from that state altogether. | ||
| Now, I know you think I'm crazy, but this actually happened. | ||
| It was 1876, shortly after the Civil War. | ||
| Samuel Tilden won the popular vote, but there were 19 electoral votes in dispute. | ||
| Congress had to step in and broker a compromise. | ||
| Rutherford Hayes was eventually named president in exchange for the end of Reconstruction and the withdrawal of federal troops from the Civil War. | ||
| Here's where things get even more interesting. | ||
| If a candidate still doesn't have a majority of electoral votes by the end of this process, the Twelfth Amendment says The House of Representatives decides who will be president, and each state delegation gets one vote. | ||
| The Senate picks the vice president. | ||
| No matter what happens, somebody has got to take the oath of office on January 20th. | ||
| So help me God. | ||
| If both the president and the vice president are still undecided, the Speaker of the House temporarily gets that job. | ||
| Speaker of the House Okay, so wait a second. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| Just a second. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is Alina Habba, Trump's attorney. | ||
| We want to hop in. | ||
| By bringing cases, by using the law in an appropriate manner, unlike what we're sitting here today seeing, this is not appropriate. | ||
| What President Trump did is he said, go patriotically and peacefully and protest. | ||
| That is an American right. | ||
| That is why we are America and we are not a third world country. | ||
| Although I will say that today, I don't feel very much like we are in America. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you think this case should go forward before or after the 2024 presidential election? | |
| I think that every court needs to look at this as a whole, right? | ||
| It's not about the January 6th case. | ||
| It's about the fact that in the matter of a couple months, we have seen them try and tie up, and me as an attorney, I've never seen this, tie up one individual who's running a campaign, in a campaign, running for office for president, so that he is in court, in depositions, and distracted, so that he won't properly run for 2024. | ||
| And frankly, it's not going to work. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is a live feed. | ||
| It is a live feed. | ||
| Give us just a second. | ||
| If we cannot get it, then we will jump to another one. | ||
| This is a live feed. | ||
| That is a live feed of Alina Haba. | ||
| We're getting it back up right now. | ||
| Just a moment. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So that he is in court, in that position, and distracted. | |
| So that he won't properly run for 2024. | ||
| And frankly, it's not going to work. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, find another feed. | ||
| Find another feed. | ||
| We're sorry. | ||
| The best that we can do is the feeds that we are cycling through are live. | ||
| We are live. | ||
| That interview is live. | ||
| If we cannot get it, then we will clip it for you and play it. | ||
| We wanted to show you Alina Haba, which is the president's attorney. | ||
| We will stop at nothing to find a proper feed of Alina Haba. | ||
| She is answering questions right now in front of the press. | ||
| We have our best people on it. | ||
| And we certainly have the best people. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, Alina Haba is Donald Trump's attorney. | ||
| She is more or less a spokesperson for Donald Trump. | ||
| She is a legal professional. | ||
| And she is a friend of the show. | ||
| She comes on our program regularly and we're huge fans of hers. | ||
| Let's hop in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why do you think that is? | |
| I'm not going to speak to co-conspirators or anybody else. | ||
| I represent President Trump. | ||
| Audio up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's testimony and there's a number of aides that have said that the president was made aware that he lost the election and yet continued to argue that it was stolen from him. | |
| How do you reconcile? | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, the best that we can do is monitor ALX, please make sure that we're monitoring as many live feeds as possible. | ||
| We can monitor the best feeds. | ||
| That feed, just for some inexplicable reason, cut away from Alina Haba. | ||
| We are not in control of those feeds. | ||
| We want to get you Alina Haba answering questions right now. | ||
| One of the feeds, the AP's feed is down and has glitched and is stuck. | ||
| So we are getting you another one. | ||
| And then that feed inexplicably, those morons cut away from Alina Hava as she was answering questions. | ||
| So the best that we can do, ladies and gentlemen, is continue to move along. | ||
| The AP one. | ||
| Can we try that once more? | ||
| Perhaps it's working now. | ||
| It's looping. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we're looking for further feeds of Lena Haba. | ||
| She is, again, a friend of the show, but these feeds seem to be glitching. | ||
| There is something that happens in Washington, D.C. as somebody who's lived in Washington, D.C. and covered a lot of events in Washington, D.C. When too many powerful people are all in one spot, the Secret Service just shuts down the cell phone service. | ||
| Perhaps you've been to a Trump rally, have you? | ||
| You'll notice that your phone stops working when Donald Trump takes the stage. | ||
| That's by design. | ||
| That's not... | ||
| Suddenly AT&T can't figure it out. | ||
| That's by design. | ||
| The phone, they essentially clog the capacity. | ||
| For people to do a lot of broadband work, and sometimes that messes with our live feeds, unfortunately. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Alina Habba has finished, and we are getting the clips clipped for you. | ||
| We believe that Donald Trump's, obviously Donald Trump's spokesperson, deserves to be heard. | ||
| Unfortunately, virtually all live feeds were shut down or non-functional whilst she was speaking. | ||
| But we got you, baby. | ||
| We got you. | ||
| Donald Trump just spoke. | ||
| Donald Trump Jr., let me correct that, just spoke and talked about Joe Biden. | ||
| What you'll see on the other side of the screen here is his father traveling down the road, heading to the court. | ||
| Donald Trump Jr. dropping bombs on Joe Biden. | ||

Well, on that note, and kind of piggybacking to Bianca's question, you know, about your dad, look, this is the enormity, the weight. | |
| Of the pressure that he's under right now. | ||
| As strong as he is, as many talented, smart people as he has around him, this has got to be incredibly stressful for him. | ||
| And as his son... | ||
| It must be a concern about how he's dealing with this. | ||
| I know he plays golf, and that's therapeutic. | ||
| But do you talk to him about, you know, Dad, how are you? | ||
| How are you doing? | ||
| How are you feeling? | ||
| I know you were just kind of sharing some of the color, how he's laughing about it. | ||
| But, man, I mean, anybody would crack under this. | ||
| But your dad, you know, he's facing it. | ||
| And not only that, not only the indictments, but a campaign! | ||
| He's in the middle of a campaign. | ||
| Have you talked to him about how he's feeling? | ||
| I'd say we're probably built a little different, and I think we've gotten used to this, right? | ||
| You know, one of the things we were literally joking about was, hey, you know, I remember back during the Russia, Russia, Russia days where the head of the Intelligence Committee wanted to try me for treason, a crime punishable by death. | ||
| You know, that's become the norm for us. | ||
| This is how the Democrats function. | ||
| Republicans, A, need to get a backbone and start fighting back and doing something about it, not just, you know, saying nice things on TV or Twitter. | ||
| They actually, you know, use the appropriations process, stop some of the funding of this insanity. | ||
| But no, literally, I was joking with my father. | ||
| I was like, oh, well, now one of the charges in the new one is literally, you know, they could bring up the death penalty in there. | ||
| I was like, oh, we have more in common now. | ||
| We both share that together. | ||
| Whether we're built differently or whether it's just we've gotten so accustomed to this. | ||
| We're not supposed to be. | ||
| That's not supposed to be a normal reaction. | ||
| But for anyone who's been watching, this didn't start two months ago with the first indictments. | ||
| This started eight years ago, seven years ago with the original Russia, Russia, Russia. | ||
| Then they impeached Trump for actually asking about Joe Biden's corruption. | ||
| That seems like it's pretty evident now. | ||
| They impeached Trump for asking about what... | ||
| Joe Biden did. | ||
| I mean, think about that. | ||
| So, ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump Jr. was on TV as his father was traveling into the courthouse. | ||
| We are monitoring outside of the courthouse. | ||
| Let's put up that live feed again. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, please stay with us. | ||
| We are live. | ||
| We are monitoring. | ||
| We have 18 different live feeds that we are monitoring. | ||
| If anything happens, we will cut to it. | ||
| We are inside the press vehicle with you. | ||
| We're inside Trump's motorcade with you. | ||
| We will bring you everything. | ||
| Stay tuned. | ||
| We are outside of the D.C. courthouse now. | ||
| That's where you can see the small gaggle of people there. | ||
| Now, what happened with the Alina Haba interview is that there is, again, a dome that effectively gets put on top of live streamers and on top of broadband signals. | ||
| You know this. | ||
| If you've ever been in the president's presence, you'll notice your phone stops working. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's by design. | ||
| If you've been to a big event in Washington, D.C., the fireworks, or an inauguration or something, your phone doesn't work. | ||
| That's exactly what happened. | ||
| So, we have pulled... | ||
| This is why you stay tuned. | ||
| We have pulled the Alina Hava interview. | ||
| This was just run on tape on Fox. | ||
| And you should hear from the president's attorney while the president is inside of the building. | ||
| We are 15 minutes away from Donald Trump getting arraigned for the 400 millionth time. | ||
| I've lost count. | ||
| I think we're at four here. | ||
| Donald Trump is getting the full weight of the deep state put upon him. | ||
| His attorney is saying as much outside. | ||
| Here's Alina Habba's full comments. | ||
| Again, we are monitoring all activity live 15 minutes away from Donald Trump being arraigned, having his charges read to him. | ||
| Alina Habba says this is all complete and total bull. | ||
| On March 17th, Hunter accidentally admits that it was his laptop from hell. | ||
| The next day... | ||
| DA Alvin Bragg indicts President Trump. | ||
| June 8th, an FBI document is released showing that the Ukrainians paid the Biden crime family millions and millions of dollars. | ||
| The next day, the Mar-a-Lago raid and the Mar-a-Lago indictment. | ||
| Last week, Hunter Biden's sweetheart plea deal fell through when the judge realized it had blanket immunity. | ||
| The following day, a superseding indictment against Donald Trump. | ||
| July 31st, Devin Archer goes to testify in front of the House. | ||
| That was only after they failed to put him in jail prior to the fact. | ||
| What happens the next day? | ||
| The January 6th indictment that we're here for today. | ||
| This is not a coincidence. | ||
| This is election interference at its finest against the leading candidate right now for president for either party. | ||
| President Trump is under siege in a way that we have never seen before. | ||
| President Trump and his legal team and everyone on his team will continue to fight, not for him, but for the American people. | ||
| I'll take some questions. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| I know the president has called this a witch hunt. | ||
| You just laid out several examples of that. | ||
| Any other thoughts that the president has communicated to you in terms of why this is going on and why he calls it a witch hunt? | ||
| I think a witch hunt is really the way that anybody should describe this because it's not something we've seen in our time. | ||
| This is not even political. | ||
| This is beyond that. | ||
| A witch hunt is when you relentlessly attack. | ||
| When you relentlessly attack the thing that you are most afraid of, people are afraid of somebody that cannot be bought by Washington. | ||
| People are afraid of somebody who is independently wealthy and who has given up his good life to fight for this country. | ||
| And that frightens a lot of politicians who are career politicians, unfortunately, because he'll get back there and I know he'll be fighting for every one of us so that this doesn't happen to us. | ||

Many of the cases about free speech, but the special counsel says Trump could have disagreed with the results and talked about it. | |
| No crime there. | ||
| The difference is what he did to try and switch the votes. | ||
| So what is it that he did to try and switch the votes that you refer to? | ||
| By bringing cases, by using the law in an appropriate manner, unlike what we're sitting here today seeing, this is not appropriate. | ||
| What President Trump did is he said, go patriotically and peacefully and protest. | ||
| That is an American right. | ||
| That is why we are America and we are not a third world country. | ||
| Although I will say that today, I don't feel very much like we are in America. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you think this case should go forward before or after the 2024 presidential election? | |
| I think that every court needs to look at this as a whole, right? | ||
| It's not about the January 6th case. | ||
| It's about the fact that in the matter of a couple months, we have seen them try and tie up, and me as an attorney, I've never seen this, tie up one individual who's running a campaign, in a campaign, running for office for president, so that he is in court. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is the legal team going to argue that the election was stolen? | |
| I think that anybody that believes that is misreading this. | ||
| The truth is, as an American, there were questions that he had regarding the election integrity. | ||
| We've seen documents come out. | ||
| We've seen documentaries come out showing that there were issues with the election. | ||
| And frankly, bringing this, I don't think Jack Smith really thought it through. | ||
| There only has to be proof that, number one, President Trump believed that this election was not completely honest. | ||
| And number two, Jack Smith has opened himself up to a can of worms that we can now... | ||
| I'll look at and really examine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If you believe that he's innocent and that this is all a setup, why not bring it to trial as soon as possible before the election so that you can clear his name? | |
| Yeah, I would love to do that, but there's something called discovery. | ||
| And when somebody wants to say that the 2020 election was perfect and that President Trump has no right to object to it, we've got to go show him all the facts. | ||
| And there's a lot of facts to show. | ||
| So everybody has their time. | ||
| And to say that Donald Trump should then be rushed and not be given the same fair proceeding that anybody else is, it's just, frankly, un-American. | ||
| It's not fair. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A lot of the lawyers who helped him try to overturn the election are unnamed co-conspirators in the indictment. | |
| Jenna Ellis isn't. | ||
| Why do you think that is? | ||
| I'm not going to speak to co-conspirators or anybody else. | ||
| I represent President Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's go one more. | |
| There's testimony and there's a number of aides that have said that the president was made aware that he lost the election and yet continued to. | ||
| How do you reconcile those two things? | ||
| Everybody was made aware that he lost the election, but that doesn't mean that that was the only advice he was given. | ||
| As anybody understands what happens in the Oval Office, there are a numerous amount of advisers and politicians and lawyers, not just one or two, that are giving you advice and telling you what they believe is true. | ||
| So he may not agree with Mike Pence, he may not agree with one of his lawyers, but that doesn't mean that there weren't other people advising him exactly the opposite. | ||
| And the president has a right, as every one of us do, to listen to several opinions and make their decision. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I remember hearing Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams. | |
| I mean, the weaponization of the DOJ didn't happen then. | ||
| No, of course not. | ||
| But if your last name's Trump, it's very different. | ||
| So Hillary Clinton could have a problem when she lost the election, and we could have a complete liberal meltdown, as we all saw. | ||
| But when we have dignified disagreements, we take them to court, we say do things patriotically and peacefully, he's to blame for things that he did not himself do. | ||
| And that's what we're seeing. | ||
| Frankly, folks, this is not about that. | ||
| This is about politics. | ||
| This is about 2024. | ||
| Period. | ||
| The end. | ||

| That's Donald Trump's attorney, lead attorney, and spokesperson, Alina Hava. | ||
| She's the official spokesperson for Donald Trump's campaign. | ||
| She is also somebody who is defending Donald Trump and is absolutely doing a spectacular job. | ||
| We look forward to having her back on the show. | ||
| We'll effort her and see if we can get her on this live. | ||
| We actually have reached out, but she's a bit busy today. | ||
| You see here a live shot of the Washington, D.C. courthouse here. | ||
| It is worth noting what is going to be read to Donald Trump Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Violations Count one Conspiracy to defraud the United States Whatever the hell that means Defraud the United States What do you mean? | ||
| Like exactly Are you talking about all the money that the Pentagon lost? | ||
| Like the billions of dollars the Pentagon can't account for In the In Ukraine That seems more like defrauding the United States than Donald Trump giving a speech outside in the Ellipse. | ||
| Count two! | ||
| Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding! | ||
| Okay, what are you talking about? | ||
| Donald Trump said march peacefully to the Capitol. | ||
| Be nice. | ||

What? | |
| I heard it, same as you did. | ||

Hmm. | |
| This is what happens when you no longer have scientists or engineers or mathematicians or business owners running your country when you have lawyers running your country. | ||
| This is the rot inside of... | ||
| You have lawyers running your country. | ||
| By the way, I'm seeing a couple of superchats pop in. | ||
| We will be reading superchats, and we will be taking your questions. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we have special guests planned for this live. | ||
| Again, we are now six minutes away from Donald Trump presenting himself in the court and having these charges read to him. | ||
| Count four, conspiracy against rights. | ||
| Oh, so they're going to charge Donald Trump with contesting an election? | ||
| That's conspiracy against rights. | ||
| Alina Hava saying, why don't they charge Hillary Clinton? | ||
| Yeah, we asked the same, why not put Hillary Clinton in prison? | ||
| For many, many things, but I guess for questioning the election, traveling around. | ||
| Bopping around the world and telling people this. | ||
| I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. | ||
| He knows. | ||
| He knows that there were a bunch of different reasons why the election turned out the way it did. | ||
| And I take responsibility for those parts of it that I should. | ||
| But Jane, it was like applying for a job and getting 66 million letters of recommendation and losing to a corrupt human tornado. | ||
| How long did it take her in the writing room to come up with that? | ||
| Her and all of her little simp staffers there in Brooklyn. | ||
| Oh, a corrupt human tornado! | ||
| That's like 21 weeks of work, straight. | ||
| Every person that has ever been a darling inside of the eyes of the Democrat Party has effectively denied their election loss. | ||
| Criminally, now we know. | ||

| But we won't know exactly how many because of how they cheated. | ||
| I did win my election. | ||
| I just didn't get to have the job. | ||
| No, I did win my election. | ||
| I just didn't get to have the job. | ||
| Even dusty old, diseased Jimmy Carter should be thrown in prison. | ||
| Grab that old bag of bones and chuck him in jail. | ||
| I mean, it's criminal, right? | ||
| He's not allowed to say things that he knows are untrue. | ||

There's no doubt that the Russians did interfere in the election. | |
| And I think the interference, although not yet quantified, if fully investigated, would show that Trump didn't actually win the election in 2016. | ||
| He lost the election, and he was put into office because of the Russians' interference on his behalf. | ||
| So do you believe President Trump is an illegitimate president? | ||
| Based on what I just said, which I can't retract. | ||
| There's no doubt that the... | ||
| There is a collapse right now in the narrative that is very important to discuss because these charges are such bullshit and because the system And | ||
| the machine is so dead set on prosecuting vengeance against the American people who defied them in 2016. | ||
| This is what happened. | ||
| There's a psychotic break inside of the machine. | ||
| The machine told you to vote for Hillary Clinton. | ||
| You didn't. | ||
| You insulted them and humiliated them internationally by voting for Donald Trump. | ||
| You broke the machine. | ||
| We laughed in their face. | ||
| The machine was broken, and they were only powerful because of the projection of power. | ||
| They attempted to do everything they could to rig 2016. | ||
| Remember the tape? | ||
| Remember the tape that was released of Donald Trump on a bus? | ||
| Sitting in the back of a bus, like, talking? | ||
| And they dug through the archives for anything they could get to release it on Trump? | ||
| Do you remember not charging Hillary Clinton? | ||
| That's rigging! | ||
| Do you remember not covering Hillary Clinton's crimes? | ||
| Not asking about it in the debates? | ||
| Do you remember all the nasty tricks they used in 2016? | ||
| And then, in spite of everything, you said, F you to these monsters. | ||
| This is what's going on now. | ||
| This is what's happening now. | ||
| They had a psychotic break. | ||
| And by they, I mean the national security state and permanent Washington, D.C., the ghosts in the machine, the people that would never have the decency to put their names on a ballot. | ||
| They would never stand for office. | ||
| That's too dirty. | ||
| That's too filthy. | ||
| It's much easier to control who can run for office, who can win the office, and who can remain in the office. | ||
| Go see JFK and Richard Nixon. | ||
| They can take you out of office if they wish. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| These people had a psychotic break, and with demonic fury and precision, clawed back power. | ||
| And even though they have power by the slimmest of possible margins, they are going to execute. | ||
| They are going to inflict pain on you and your candidate. | ||
| It is you who they hate. | ||
| It is you who they are coming after. | ||
| And that is starting to permeate. | ||
| There is a clip that is going insanely viral right now that was just released of Joe Rogan. | ||
| Joe Rogan coming out against these prosecutions. | ||
| This is how you know that the normies are flipping on this. | ||
| This is how you get your Tupac moment. | ||
| This is how you turn Donald Trump into a martyr that 40 states will vote for. | ||
| Joe Rogan saying this is trash. | ||
| All of this is trash. | ||
| And the American people are not with Democrats in this persecution of Donald Trump. | ||
| Joe Rogan defending Trump? | ||

|
Wow. | |
| Watch. | ||
| That love Trump, they feel like this is a witch hunt. | ||
| And they feel like all the things he's getting indicted for are bullshit anyway. | ||
| Not only does it not work, but it kind of hardens their position that he's being targeted. | ||
| And that this is... | ||
| These are like the actions of a banana republic. | ||
| You take your political rival and you arrest him. | ||
| And specifically, you charge him with things that you're fucking guilty of. | ||
| Like the documents, like the classified documents. | ||
| Biden's guilty of the... | ||
| Exact same issue. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You gotta respect the level of deceptiveness that's been used. | |
| I mean, look at what Hillary did, going and saying, hey, it's Russia, but it was really, you know, what she was doing. | ||
| And now they're using a similar play as well. | ||
| These absolute total scumbags. | ||
| And they said it. | ||
| By the way, we have the live shot here. | ||
| We are monitoring 18 different lives. | ||
| The live shot here, ladies and gentlemen, once Donald Trump moves, if Donald Trump pops out and says anything, if... | ||
| Donald Trump, who is being arraigned at this very second because it's 4 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the nose, Donald Trump is having his charges read to him right now. | ||
| They're going to read through the charges. | ||
| Are they going to show this clip of Joe Biden telling a reporter, sitting there, a reporter sitting there, quivering with their little notepad, Mr. Biden, sir, can I ask you a question? | ||
| Yeah, son, remove my toes from your mouth. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| First off, we love you. | ||
| Second off, what do you think about Donald Trump running for president again? | ||
| And then Joe Biden goes on and says he won't run for president because we'll stop him. | ||
| We won't allow him to run for president again. | ||
| My God. | ||
| My God. | ||
| The seeds of dementia inside of this man's head. | ||
| You're not supposed to say that, Joe. | ||
| Watch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who is about to launch another campaign? | |
| So how do you reassure them if that is the reason for their questioning, that the former president will not return, that his political movement, which is still very strong, will not once again take power in the United States? | ||
| Well, we just have to demonstrate that he will not take power if he does run. | ||
| making sure he, under the legitimate efforts of our Constitution, does not become the next president again. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We just have to make sure that he does not take power. | ||
| This is exactly what the New York Times reported. | ||
| This is what Joe Biden is saying. | ||
| We have to make sure he does not take power. | ||
| Dude, whoa, what? | ||
| Could you imagine a President Trump standing there being like, we have to make sure that Barack Obama, Joe Biden, they do not take power. | ||
| Our democracy! | ||
| Our precious democracy! | ||
| These sick, godless frauds. | ||
| Look at these people. | ||
| In the pages of the New York Times, printed, in the pages of the New York Times, in the past, Mr. Biden privately told his close circle of advisors that Mr. Trump posed a threat to democracy, which means my power. | ||
| Democracy is code. | ||
| I speak lib. | ||
| Democracy is code for my power. | ||
| It's a threat to me, personally, being powerful. | ||
| And me having the reins of our government. | ||
| Because I believe in a divine right to rule for Democrats. | ||
| And should be prosecuted for his roles in the events of January 6th. | ||
| This is an article from the New York Times from a year ago. | ||
| He is now pushing Merrick Garland to stop acting like a ponderous judge and take decisive action. | ||
| That's what you are seeing today. | ||
| So this would be called obstruction of justice. | ||
| This article alone is enough to impeach Joe Biden, send him to prison. | ||
| You're not allowed to obstruct justice. | ||
| The president is not allowed to put pressure on the attorney general to go prosecute someone, much less his political adversary. | ||
| Now, what are they going to read to Donald Trump inside of the courtroom? | ||
| What are they going to read? | ||
| Well, we've already gone through the charges. | ||
| What does the actual charging document say? | ||
| It says that Donald Trump... | ||
| Donald Trump did knowingly combine, conspire, confederate, and agree with co-conspiracers to oppress, threaten, intimidate one or more persons in the free exchange of enjoyment of a right privileged to them by the Constitution, the right to vote. | ||
| Show me one. | ||
| This is the document. | ||
| You're seeing it on your screen. | ||
| Show me one person who had their right to vote stopped by Donald Trump. | ||
| One. | ||
| I want one. | ||
| One person. | ||
| They can't. | ||
| These people are frauds. | ||
| Let's continue in Jack Smith's document, which reads like a post-menopausal cat lady, a woman who will be devoured by her cat when she dies in her apartment alone, her op-ed to her local liberal newspaper from the Upper East Side. | ||
| This is what this reads like. | ||
| This is a hissy op-ed from a barren catwoman. | ||
| Living in a single, living in a one-room studio apartment on the Upper East Side. | ||
| Devoured by her cats. | ||
| When she dies, no one will even notice she's gone. | ||
| Jack Smith. | ||
| According to Jack Smith, it's a criminal conspiracy for the president to tell lies. | ||
| Oh my. | ||
| And then give those lies the backing of the federal government. | ||
| Oh really? | ||
| Oh really? | ||
| Is that the only president? | ||
| This is the only president that's told a lie? | ||
| Let's just put that in quotation marks for the sake of the argument. | ||
| What about Bill Clinton saying he didn't have sex with that woman at a official news conference, at a presidential news conference? | ||
| Is that worthy of this statute? | ||
| Did Bill Clinton tell a lie and give the backing of the federal government? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes, he did. | ||
| Trump was continuing to perpetuate the grand criminal conspiracy by tweeting out, stay peaceful and no violence. | ||
| I cannot get over this part. | ||
| I cannot get over this part. | ||
| Jack Smith goes through and shows Donald Trump's tweets and says, Donald Trump's saying, stay peaceful. | ||
| We are on the side of law enforcement. | ||
| And I am asking everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful, no violence. | ||
| Remember, we are the party of law and order. | ||
| Respect the men and women in blue. | ||
| Jack Smith is using that against Donald Trump. | ||
| This is how desperate they are. | ||
| This is how much they are swinging. | ||
| Once more, Donald Trump's interfering with someone's right to vote. | ||
| What the hell are you talking about? | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| This is, I mean, again, I suppose if there is one silver lining in all this, they have not charged Donald Trump with incitement. | ||
| They have not charged him with a rebellion or an insurrection. | ||
| 18 U.S. Code 2383 disallows somebody who has incited a rebellion or an insurrection from ever running for federal office again. | ||
| So they couldn't get enough. | ||
| After promising us that they would get Trump removed from the ballot for charging with insurrection, they couldn't charge him. | ||
| Again, in this hissy-fit document, the defendant retweeted posts labeling legislators cowards. | ||
| Trump's retweets are getting them. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Apparently now Jack Smith has entered the courtroom flanked by security guards. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Because, of course. | ||
| The guy's going to have taxpayer funded security for the rest of his life. | ||
| As will Joe Biden. | ||
| Joe Biden has, once again, been doing the rounds. | ||
| It is now 4.07 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. | ||
| Donald Trump presumably is across from Jack Smith right now in the court. | ||
| Jack Smith is a weird, rat-like, shivering, shaky little man. | ||
| I have no doubt that he is utterly, utterly terrified. | ||
| In the presence of Donald Trump, I would love to be in that courtroom right now. | ||
| Sadly, there are no cameras. | ||
| There are no photographs. | ||
| But we will bring you whatever comes out of that courtroom. | ||
| We are monitoring the live feeds now. | ||
| We have nothing on the live feeds. | ||
| It's still just the shot of the courthouse. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump may be in court right now, but Joe Biden was doing a softball interview with Jimmy Kimmel, unable to answer any questions. | ||
| Had to be cut off once by Jimmy Kimmel because he was like rambling and making no sense. | ||
| Jimmy Kimmel had to step in and save him. | ||
| But there was one time of complete clairvoyance where... | ||
| I understand that argument, but also it's like you're playing Monopoly with somebody who, you know, won't pass go and won't follow any of the rules, and how do you ever make any progress if they're not following the rules? | ||
| You've got to send him to jail, you know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's that little box, you know, directly to jail. | |
| Go directly to jail. | ||
| The president. | ||
| Yeah, gotta send him to jail. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| They didn't have this all planned. | ||
| One of our favorites has been Byron Donalds. | ||
| Byron Donalds has been an absolute brawler from the state of Florida. | ||
| He's been a defender of the president. | ||
| He's been on the right side of a lot of these issues. | ||
| Byron Donalds was just on Fox News as Donald Trump was heading in to the courtroom and dropped a couple bombshells. | ||
| We thought this was absolute, absolute great stuff from the congressman from the great state of Florida, Byron Donalds. | ||
| Congressman, have you spoken with President Trump since this latest indictment? | ||
| And if so, what are you hearing from him? | ||
| So, actually, we haven't talked. | ||
| I sent him a text message about something slightly different. | ||
| I mean, look, the president's a fighter. | ||
| He's not going to stand for this, and no American should, because what this is from Jack Smith is a complete violation of an individual's First Amendment rights. | ||
| You're allowed to speak about elections and the outcomes. | ||
| Even if big media and the radical left don't like it, you're allowed to say it. | ||
| Secondarily, because he was the candidate in that election, Rogue knucklehead prosecutor out of the Department of Justice. | ||
| rogue knucklehead prosecutor out of the department of justice who is he talking about jack smith who was in charge of the uh incredulous you Justice Department Ethics Board during Joe Biden's pay-for-play schemes? | ||
| Jack Smith. | ||
| Who is the cleanup hatchet man for Democrats when they want to come after any Republican that potentially is rising in the polls and could threaten their power? | ||
| Jack Smith. | ||
| Jack Smith went after Bob McDonald when he was a rising star in Virginia. | ||
| Democrats staged a soft coup in Virginia by trying to put Bob McDonald in jail. | ||
| I think they succeeded. | ||
| And getting Bob McDonald to go to prison, potentially. | ||
| And then the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that Jack Smith was a jackass and freed Bob McDonald. | ||
| ALX, please check on the validity of that statement. | ||
| I know that I'm generally right there. | ||
| The Supreme Court did rule 9-0 against Jack Smith. | ||
| And I think that they may potentially rule 9-0 against Jack Smith. | ||
| Again, Alan Dershowitz today is arguing that this... | ||
| May go directly, may be kicked directly to the Supreme Court. | ||
| Cash Patel was on our show arguing that this judge must recuse herself, that there is absolutely no way that this trial can go forward without the judge recusing herself, because the judge worked with Hunter Biden at the same law firm as Hunter Biden, and then also worked for Fusion GPS, so effectively worked for the Hillary Clinton campaign. | ||
| This is how dirty, dirty these people are. | ||
| They are filthy individuals. | ||
| This is a dangerous road to go down. | ||
| I think any single Democrat knows this. | ||
| Any Democrat that has any type of grounding to reality that doesn't have full-blown TDS knows this. | ||
| What is going to happen here is all of the pussies and rhinos are going to be pushed out of the party, and the hardened generation of young activists are going to take control. | ||
| I'm looking at, you know exactly who they are. | ||
| We are like a few years away from taking control of the levers inside of the party. | ||
| And you're going to have a real problem on your hands. | ||
| Because this is now the norm. | ||
| And we know exactly where all the bodies are buried on the other side. | ||
| So you did it to yourselves. | ||
| Jonathan Turley, one of our favorite legal professionals, is on Fox saying exactly that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, you can say false things, but not when you know they're false and you should have listened to us. | |
| That's a dangerous road to go down. | ||
| And I think that when you also look at what was raised earlier about the nature of these counts, I think that that... | ||
| A 19th century law involving the denial of voting rights is very sketchy in terms of its legal use here. | ||
| But they still have to face the First Amendment questions. | ||
| I think a lot of judges are going to be highly skeptical about this indictment. | ||
| Keep in mind, Martha, if you believe that the president may have believed this all along, like many people have said he does. | ||
| This entire case collapses. | ||
| Now, this is why, by the way, I'm not so sure Trump wouldn't have invited this one case. | ||
| He has a lot to worry about in Florida. | ||
| But this case may be just ready for order for Trump. | ||
| I think a lot of Americans view this as they did the New York case, that Smith may have jumped the shark. | ||
| He may have left a lot of the public behind. | ||
| And, you know, I think you're going to see that play out in the coming days. | ||
| Yeah, you know, just to put a fine point on it, you have to make, if you can prove, I know it's so circular, but if you can prove that he knew that he lost the election, then you're creating intent, correct? | ||
| Intent to deceive, and that's a conspiracy, I guess? | ||
| It's pretty... | ||
| It's pretty tough. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I mean, there's two breaking linchpins here. | |
| First, in the Alvarez case, the Supreme Court dealt with a politician who knowingly lied. | ||
| And the court still said that that was protected. | ||
| But more importantly, you then have the linchpin to these later steps, third parties taking steps to create a second set of electors, and whether he's responsible for those actions. | ||
| That's why this has really attenuated, in my view. | ||
| And each of these linchpins has got a hold for Smith to be able to bring this to a jury. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Jonathan, thank you. | ||
| You've got major issues coming up here. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, you got major issues. | ||
| Once again, we are monitoring every single feed. | ||
| We will have it live for you when Donald Trump departs the courthouse. | ||
| We are now 15 minutes in. | ||
| No doubt Donald Trump is in the room with Jack Smith and the judge right now. | ||
| He just gets the charges and he gets to plead and he pleads through a lawyer and then he leaves. | ||
| No handcuffs, no mugshot, no fingerprinting. | ||
| Even though we want that sweet Trump mugshot. | ||
| I mean, at this point, why the hell not? | ||
| Why the hell not? | ||
| We want that sweet Trump mugshot. | ||
| We are, again, monitoring, ladies and gentlemen, outside of the courthouse, monitoring all the live feeds. | ||
| We feel like this is a historic moment, but also a moment that we need to put an enormous amount of context into. | ||
| Joe Biden asked his Department of Justice to arrest Donald Trump. | ||
| He forced his Department of Justice to arrest Donald Trump. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| And all the people that are openly celebrating right now, hold your horses, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz has this fascinating piece in the Daily Mail today, and a clip to go with it, talking to libs directly. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz is himself a lib. | ||
| He's also somebody who's on our program quite regularly. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz saying, for all you Trump haters popping champagne over the dubious indictments, here's exactly why it will collapse. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz, one of the foremost legal scholars, saying, you're going to have... | ||
| If there's any way to stop the partisan binders and the grave damage and legal lunacy this is doing to our country, you people have got to stop celebrating this. | ||
| Was it wrong what Donald Trump did? | ||
| Was it criminal? | ||
| Have no doubt corrupting the U.S. justice system to punish a former president, and the current candidate nudges the country ever closer to tribalism, chaos, and collapse. | ||
| If the attorney general appointed by the incumbent president authorizes the prosecution of the president's chief political rival, the evidence of a serious crime should be overwhelming. | ||
| His guilt should be clear beyond doubt, so to avoid any reasonable suspicion that the prosecutor was motivated, even in part by partisan consideration. | ||
| The pragmatic gun must indeed be smoking. | ||
| I call this the Nixon standard, under which the guilt is so evident that even the defendants' political allies, certainly less sectarian independents, are satisfied by this. | ||
| Dershowitz continues. | ||
| That admittedly daunting but entirely appropriate standard has not been met by any of the three indictments pending against Trump, who stands tied in recent polls against Joe Biden. | ||
| Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg They go on through the classified document scandal, which is such a joke, and then this one, which is even more of a clown show. | ||
| In order to establish the underlying charges, the government would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump himself actually knew and believed that he had lost the election fair and square, and that he intended to subvert the will of the people. | ||
| They cannot do that. | ||
| What are they going to do? | ||
| Travel into his brain? | ||
| Magneto from the X-Men? | ||
| Go back in time? | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Sorry, not Magneto. | ||
| Professor X. Both. | ||
| I did not believe that the government would bring this indictment unless it had corroborated evidence that Trump told people that he knew that he had been defeated and was challenging the results for fraudulent and corrupt purposes. | ||
| Al Dershowitz goes on to say that there is absolutely no way that they are going to be able to prove this. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz, again, is saying that this case will collapse under its own weight. | ||
| Our Constitution prohibits ex post facto prosecutions, that is the prosecutions that are not based on clear rules easily nobled to the defendants at the time of alleged offenses, but simply the law must be clearly established by firm precedence. | ||
| There are few in this indictment. | ||
| As Thomas Jefferson once put it, the criminal law must be so clear that the average person can understand it if he reads it while running. | ||
| The spirit... | ||
| If not, the letter of this prohibition is violated when the statutes are stretched and the precedents are ignored. | ||
| Smith is charging Trump under a Reconstruction-era law adopted in 1870 that makes it a crime to conspire, injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person exercising constitutionality, including the right to vote. | ||
| The provision was intended to aid African-American citizens emerging from the horrors of slavery, but it has not been used to prosecute someone for contesting the legitimacy of an election, which Donald Trump has the right to do. | ||
| Also, we have the right—oh, he goes on to talk about Bob McDonnell, just letting you know here—Smith won a corruption conviction against Bob McDonnell in 2014 and was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in an unanimous decision. | ||
| So, effectively, Dershowitz goes on to argue that the Supreme Court will absolutely blow this up. | ||
| No one can ever predict the outcome of an appeal, but the affirmance is far from assured. | ||
| The bottom line is that the Attorney General should not have approved this indictment based on the speculative nature of its legal foundation and the absence of a smoking gun evidence. | ||
| No one is above the law, and every defendant must be treated equally, but the reality is that when a potential defendant is the candidate running against strong incumbent president, running most strongly, correction, against an incumbent president, the Attorney General should be certain that this case is strong. | ||
| The indictment is evidence on which it is apparently based does not seem to meet that standard. | ||
| Long after the champagne buzz wears off, America will only be left with a constitutional hangover. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz said as much on Fox News, not on CNN, on Fox News a day ago, saying the Supreme Court is going to just absolutely shove this thing where the sun don't shine. | ||
| Jack Smith. | ||
| The government has the burden of proving beyond a reasonable doubt. | ||
| That subjectively, Donald Trump actually believed that he lost the election and acted contrary to that belief. | ||
| Now, I've read the indictment very carefully. | ||
| There is no smoking gun. | ||
| There is no one who is credibly prepared to testify that Donald Trump said to him, I know personally I lost the election. | ||
| There's a lot of evidence that people told him he lost the election, but you know Donald Trump. | ||
| And you know that he's going to make up his own mind. | ||
| And they're going to have a very hard time proving that. | ||
| Now, it's the District of Columbia. | ||
| Ninety-some-odd percent of the jury pool will have voted against them. | ||
| So they may actually get a conviction from a D.C. jury. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But will it survive appellate review and review to the Supreme Court? | |
| I do not think so. | ||
| No. | ||
| No. | ||
| And that's Alan Dershowitz, somebody who's like the master of arguing before the Supreme Court. | ||
| You really think that Clarence Thomas Court is going to allow this to become suddenly the precedent, the law of the land? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah, so Roe v. | ||
| Wade, an affirmative action, and then ruling in favor of religious freedom against the rainbow tyrants across the nation. | ||
| You think... | ||
| Those are hard battles, okay? | ||
| Those are hard battles, and the Supreme Court did away with those, like, immediately. | ||
| You think they're going to have a problem with this one? | ||
| This is going to be fed into the wood chipper. | ||
| I can hear Clarence Thomas squeakily shining his gavel, getting ready, ladies and gentlemen, for that moment. | ||
| We'll see if it gets to that. | ||
| We'll see if it gets to that. | ||
| Somebody who is... | ||
| Potentially on the phone with Donald Trump moments before he left to enter the courthouse is Donald Trump Jr. | ||
| Donald Trump Jr. giving advice to his father and then effectively advising him as to how to act. | ||
| Donald Trump Jr. was on Newsmax moments ago. | ||
| We thought this was very interesting. | ||
| This is the advice that Donald Trump was given before entering the courtroom. | ||
| And it's just been told to me that the judge has entered the courtroom now. | ||
| So Jack Smith, Donald Trump in the courtroom, the judge in the courtroom. | ||
| Everyone's there. | ||
| If we have any videos or photos or anything like that, we'll get it to you, but I believe that there are none of those things allowed inside of the courtroom. | ||
| Donald Trump Jr. advising his father. | ||
| What is his father's spree de corps inside of the court? | ||
| Listen. | ||
| I spoke to my father the other day right after it was announced, and honestly, he's doing great. | ||
| We were laughing about things. | ||
| Not that it's not serious, but I think everyone understands exactly what's in play. | ||
| Each one of these things, I think, only solidifies that to the American people, just how far we have fallen as a country, just how corrupt the Biden administration and their weaponized form of government is. | ||
| And, you know, hopefully that wakes up people because, you know, this doesn't end well for our country, for our civilization. | ||
| This is scary stuff. | ||
| And it was happening in third world banana republics. | ||
| We'd be doing something about it, but it's happening right here at home in America. | ||
| It's scary. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'm. | |
| So that's Donald Trump Jr. arguing. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, that Donald Trump was effectively just laughing his way out of the, laughing his way into the courtroom. | ||
| We'll see how Donald Trump's acts when he exits the courtroom. | ||
| Donald Trump is someone who is prone to stopping in to the bakery. | ||
| You might recall the bakery in Miami. | ||
| Donald Trump stopped in, spoke to the press, sang songs, sang happy birthday. | ||
| Had a chat with everyone? | ||
| You've never seen anything like it. | ||
| Never seen anything like it. | ||
| So we shall see what happens next. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we are awaiting Donald Trump exiting the courtroom. | ||
| By all right, Donald Trump has had his charges read to him, and then he will be exiting the courtroom momentarily. | ||
| There is a new and fascinating article here. | ||
| since we are on the sort of the Dershowitz, sort of on the Dershowitz path and rounds here in ALX, please grab me those Trump truths from earlier. | ||
| I want to pop those up. | ||
| Donald Trump saying on Truth Social that he's only one indictment away from becoming president. | ||
| He truthed those while on the plane heading to Washington, D.C. Since we are on the Alan Dershowitz train here, we might as well pop on here. | ||
| Jack Smith could be indicted. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz responds to latest federal charges against Trump, saying that it could be Jack Smith who is the person who is going to prison. | ||
| Huh? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Uh, what? | ||
| Like... | ||
| Let me explain why the core of the indictment is that Donald Trump lied to the public. | ||
| He lied. | ||
| He just lied to the public, Dershowitz saying. | ||
| Jack Smith lied. | ||
| In his indictment, he outlines the speech that Donald Trump made on January 6th. | ||
| It's very important to take a look at this indictment. | ||
| Do we have this clip loaded, Bryce? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't think so. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is very interesting. | ||
| So, now... | ||
| So, okay, so it's from a 30-minute video. | ||
| So this is from Alan Dershowitz, like, sort of rant on his own YouTube, it looks like. | ||
| Jack Smith lied in his indictment. | ||
| He outlines this deliberately, willfully, and with malice, leaves out key words. | ||
| He doctors the speech, apparently. | ||
| Doctors Trump's speech. | ||
| Now, that's the first time I've seen that. | ||
| That's very interesting. | ||
| Let's look into that. | ||
| That's very curious. | ||
| So, ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump has... | ||
| Has been truth-socialing. | ||
| Has been truthing. | ||
| Want to grab those. | ||
| Those are the first statements that we have from Donald Trump. | ||
| Just a moment here. | ||
| The only statements that we've had publicly from Donald Trump. | ||
| Biden and his family steal millions of dollars. | ||
| Bribes from foreign countries. | ||
| I'm headed to D.C. to be arrested. | ||
| Protesting a crooked election. | ||
| Unfair venue. | ||
| Unfair judge. | ||
| The nation in decline. | ||
| MAGA. | ||
| We really do truly hope that Donald Trump does ask for a recusal of this judge. | ||
| This is a very, very good one right here, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Pop. | ||
| Bomb. | ||
| I need one more indictment to ensure my election. | ||
| Ha ha ha ha ha ha. | ||
|

|
Ha ha ha ha. | |
| Ha ha ha ha. | ||
| All right, here we go. | ||
| Breaking. | ||
| Donald Trump pleads not guilty. | ||
| One more indictment to ensure my election. | ||
| Breaking! | ||
| Donald Trump has pled not guilty to all four charges in his indictment. | ||
| Boom, shaka, laka. | ||
| Donald Trump has also posted a brand new campaign video. | ||
| We will get that loaded for you. | ||
| Stay tuned. | ||
| We have the best team on the internet alive and ready to go. | ||
| Donald Trump pled not guilty. | ||
| Y 'all got to feel me, and he's just going to walk out of that courthouse. | ||
| And we're going to be there with you. | ||
| We are going to be there with you when Donald Trump exits the courtroom. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we have a Donald Trump, a brand new Donald Trump campaign video that we think is particularly badass that we will play for you. | ||
| Ready to go? | ||
| Rolls-Royce getting it loaded. | ||
| Brand new campaign video from Donald Trump posted just moments ago. | ||
| This is the first sort of message. | ||
| These are the messages from Donald Trump today. | ||
| We've played you what Don Jr. said. | ||
| Donald Trump's truth. | ||
| Truths. | ||
| One more indictment, and it'll ensure my election. | ||
| And here, ladies and gentlemen, is the video. | ||

This is the final battle. | |
| With you at my side, we will demolish the deep state. | ||
| We will expel the warmongers from our government. | ||
| We will drive out the globalists. | ||
| We will cast out the communists, Marxists and fascists. | ||
| We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. | ||

|
We will rout the fake news media and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all. | |
| All right, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| So there we go. | ||
| Let's go ahead and check in, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| We got the live feed of Donald Trump. | ||
| We'll pop that back up. | ||
| Donald Trump is pleading. | ||
| Once he pleads, he walks. | ||
| And once he walks, we may get Donald Trump's comments. | ||
| Again, Donald Trump stopped in at a bakery. | ||
| Epic moment. | ||
| Alpha moment. | ||
| And chatted through. | ||
| Sang songs. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Donald Trump used to own a hotel in Washington, D.C., just down the road from here, the Trump Hotel. | ||
| If you've ever been there, pretty amazing spot. | ||
| There is one of our staff members who is there right now, the former Donald Trump Hotel, our wonderful executive producer, ALX. | ||
| I would, uh, I, let's check and see if he's available to hop on the feed along with David Leatherwood, who is, oh, is David off? | ||
| Okay, and Mike Davis will be joining us soon. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| ALX says he needs to go get headphones. | ||
| All right, we are working hard here. | ||
| Here's the live feed of Donald Trump once again when he leaves the courthouse. | ||
| He'll pop on right there. | ||
| He's already pled, and we are ready to go. | ||
| We talked to you about Alan Dershowitz and how he says Jack Smith may be arrested. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| Well, Alan Dershowitz explains. | ||
| I'm not going to say it's going to happen or it should happen. | ||
| Just to illustrate. | ||
| Under the terms of this indictment, Jack Smith, the prosecutor, could be indicted. | ||
| Let me explain why. | ||
| The core of the indictment is that Donald Trump lied to the public. | ||
| That he lied. | ||
| He just lied. | ||
| But Jack Smith lied. | ||
| In his indictment. | ||
| He outlines the speech that Donald Trump made on January 6th. | ||
| It's a very important part of the indictment. | ||
| But he deliberately, willfully and with malice, leaves out the key words. | ||
| He doctors the speech. | ||
| He leaves out the fact that Donald Trump said, I want you to protest peacefully and patriotically. | ||
| Peacefully and patriotically. | ||
| Those are the two words. | ||
| That bring him within the First Amendment. | ||
| Now, you can argue about that. | ||
| What you cannot argue about is that a decent prosecutor, an honest lawyer, doesn't leave those words out of the indictment. | ||
| And that's what Jack Smith did. | ||
| left those words out of the indictment. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we shall see. | ||
| There seems to be a moment. | ||
| There's like a, there's like a, there's like a Glitch right now in the Matrix. | ||
| There's an energy shift. | ||
| They've pushed people too far in this moment. | ||
| And there's no—only, like, the biggest mush brains are actually believing that this is because Donald Trump is an evil person. | ||
| Anybody who's paying attention, especially people who already believed that the Justice Department was rigged and set against them, those people are— Some of the Trump supporters who are outside of the event today were saying exactly that. | ||
| These are some characters, but I think it's important to sort of show the breadth of individuals who showed up today. | ||
| You're seeing there a strange shot from the live feed we're looking at today. | ||
| This is the live feed, I guess. | ||
| I guess getting centered and focused here, not doing a great job. | ||
| Here is what Trump supporters were saying outside of the courthouse today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're here supporting Donald Trump. | |
| You're live on Sky News. | ||
| The only way to save America is with Donald Trump. | ||
| They would have it, the prosecutor. | ||
| He's the man who tried to destroy America, subvert democracy. | ||
| That's another made-up story. | ||
| It's another made-up story, another made-up indictment. | ||
| They've been after this man since he came down the escalator eight years ago. | ||
| I've got to remember. | ||
| When was America great? | ||
| 2017, 18, 2019, until the commie Democrats called their bosses in Wuhan to release the virus. | ||
| Remember, we had a thriving economy. | ||
| Stock market was through the roof. | ||
| Energy independence. | ||
| We had respect all around the world. | ||
| We were the number one superpower. | ||
| We were doing great. | ||
| America first. | ||
| First constitution. | ||
| You put the constitution first, and it all went to shit 30 months ago. | ||
| Whoa. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, that is some of the vibe and the swagger outside of the courthouse in Washington, D.C. Again, we are looking at the live shot. | ||
| It looks like people are beginning to gather there in front. | ||
| We've already heard from Donald Trump pleading not guilty. | ||
| And now let's hear from a man who is so very close with Donald Trump that he is personally responsible for the court that may, in fact... | ||
| Be the final word on what happens to Donald Trump in this case and in every case. | ||
| Let's hear from Mike Davis, the man who's in charge of the Article III project in Washington, D.C., and the man who, very humble guy, he wouldn't say it, but this guy, this person, got all of Donald Trump's judicial nominees on the bench, the Supreme Court. | ||
| He was the guy who was bare-knuckle brawling behind the scenes to get us Kavanaugh. | ||
| Mike, how you doing, man? | ||
| I'm doing well, Ben. | ||
| How are you doing? | ||
| Donald Trump said, not guilty. | ||
| Y 'all got to feel me. | ||
| And then hit. | ||
| And then smash the table. | ||
| Smashed the table with his hand, got into the Secret Service vehicle, and grabbed the steering wheel from the Secret Service, apparently. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, if he would have just went outside and, like, carjacked a car or robbed an old lady or murdered someone, he'd be walking free right now. | ||
| But because he dared to question an election, which used to be legal up until yesterday or two days ago, now he's facing four felony charges by... | ||
| Biden's Justice Department, Attorney General Merrick Garland, and Jack Smith. | ||
| So, interesting times in Washington, D.C. Interesting times, indeed. | ||
| Donald Trump did, in fact, plead not guilty to all these charges. | ||
| We've been really covering just the breathless weakness of this indictment of Donald Trump. | ||
| And we read through it, and some of the finer details... | ||
| They're going after Donald Trump for his retweets. | ||
| They're going after Donald Trump for saying, stay peaceful, march peacefully, respect police. | ||
| They cite those tweets. | ||
| They leave out Donald Trump's, they edit Donald Trump's words. | ||
| So Jack Smith effectively lies. | ||
| And then he says that Donald Trump doesn't have the right to free speech. | ||
| He doesn't have the right to free thought. | ||
| But I'm not a lawyer, Mike. | ||
| Perhaps there's some type of subtlety that I may be missing here, like a fine wine. | ||
| Can you explain for us? | ||
| Yeah, Ben, you're missing the Trump derangement syndrome to the First Amendment to the Constitution because the First Amendment that we've had in the books for like 250 years applies to everyone except for Donald Trump. | ||
| And so Democrats can challenge elections. | ||
| They can, like they did in 1968, 2000, 2004, 2016. | ||
| But when Donald Trump does it, it becomes an assault on democracy. | ||
| And he should go to prison for this. | ||
| I mean, this is just insane. | ||
| I don't even think the Democrats even are taking this one seriously. | ||
| I mean, I think all of this is lawfare against President Trump, whether it's Manhattan DA, Alvin Bragg, the Soros fund of DA's indictment of a former president for the first time in American history for the non-crime of a businessman settling a nuisance claim. | ||
| And then you have Jack Smith, the political hitman and political scud missile launched by the Democrats to take out Trump, indicting President Trump for the non-crime of a former president having his presidential records, which is allowed by the Presidential Records Act. | ||
| Now we have Jack Smith indicting Trump again, this time for the non-crime of objecting to a presidential election, which is allowed by the Electoral Count Act. | ||
| of 1887 and twisting arms politically is allowed by the First Amendment. | ||
| You're going to see Fulton County DA Fannie Willis, another deranged Democrat, also indicting Trump probably this month for January 6th for non-crimes. | ||
| And then we have Tish James, the New York Attorney General, charging Trump with civil fraud for the big fraud of borrowing money from sophisticated banks and paying them back in full. | ||
| That's the problem, is we have these deranged Democrat dumb prosecutors who are bringing their dumb lawfare against President Trump. | ||
| This will almost certainly all get overturned by the Supreme Court, but the problem is that it's not going to get overturned before November 7th, 2024, and that's what the Democrats are doing. | ||
| That's the same play. | ||
| Jack Smith ran against former Virginia Governor Bob McDonald, a likely presidential We're vice presidential candidate in 2016. | ||
| Jack Smith brought bogus corruption charges against him. | ||
| He was convicted. | ||
| That was affirmed on appeal. | ||
| And it wasn't until several years later that the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously, eight to nothing, reversed Jack Smith's conviction of Bob McDonald. | ||
| But guess what, Ben? | ||
| The damage was already done. | ||
| The political damage was done. | ||
| That's what they're doing here. | ||
| This is law fair. | ||
| They fear they can't beat Trump on November 7th, 2024. | ||
| And frankly, the only way that we're going to beat this law fair for President Trump is putting him back in the White House on November 7th, 2024. | ||
| Can you game theory that for me? | ||
| Because there's people in my feed saying that attorney generals in blue states could keep Trump off the ballot. | ||
| He's a felon. | ||
| They could prevent his name from being printed on the ballot. | ||
| Is that a potential strategy here? | ||
| They could try to do that, but the qualifications to serve as president are laid out in the United States Constitution. | ||
| I think you have to be like 35 years of age and have a citizenship requirement, and that's it, right? | ||
| And so he could actually win back the presidency as a convicted felon sitting in a D.C. jail. | ||
| With Alvin Bragg's indictment of President Trump, Democrats won President Trump the nomination. | ||
| With Jack Smith's indictment of President Trump for presidential records he's allowed to have, I think that helped President Trump barely win the White House. | ||
| This indictment of President Trump for the non-crime of contesting a presidential election, I think, is going to help President Trump win back the White House by like two or three points. | ||
| I think it's going to be a comfortable victory for President Trump like George W. Bush. | ||
| In 2004, because I think the American people are seeing this. | ||
| I know they are, if you look at the polling. | ||
| They're seeing these criminal indictments for what they are, Democrat, welfare. | ||
| And I think people resent the fact that Joe Biden and Merrick Garland think that they can have a D.C. prosecutor and a D.C. judge and a 95% Democrat D.C. jury and 99% Trump deranged D.C. jury decide the next presidential election. | ||
| That is precisely what is going on here. | ||
| Why do they hold the charges? | ||
| Also, more importantly, there's this admission of guilt. | ||
| This murder admission inside of the New York Times that was printed a year ago where Joe Biden is fuming and demanding that Merrick Garland prosecute Trump for January 6th because he's a threat to democracy. | ||
| I mean, the stenographers of the New York Times printed that, Mike, essentially as a blood confession that this was... | ||
| Coming directly from Joe Biden, how do you not say that that's obstruction of justice? | ||
| And how do you not have House Republicans impeaching Joe Biden immediately for his corruption? | ||
| He's a compromised president of the United States, as evidenced by the tens of millions of dollars that have gone to every Biden except for the five-year-old granddaughter they just acknowledged for the first time last week or whenever it was. | ||
| How do you not impeach Merrick Garland for his obvious Cover up for his boss and politicization and weaponization of the Justice Department to go after Trump, Trump's top aides, Trump supporters, Christians praying outside of abortion clinics, parents outraged and showing up to school board meetings. | ||
| The Justice Department has taken an ugly turn during President Obama's presidency. | ||
| It is continuing and being ramped up dramatically under Biden and the House Republicans. | ||
| I always say the D.C. swamp is the only place on the planet where the reptiles lack backbones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So House Republicans need to find their backbones. | |
| They need to start issuing subpoenas. | ||
| They need to open impeachment inquiries. | ||
| This is a zero-sum game. | ||
| The reason that Biden and his goons at the Justice Department are getting away with this lawfare, the reason they're on offense is because they're not on defense, because House Republicans don't have backbones. | ||
| So, you're saying that there's no way that the Supreme Court would hear any type of appeal here. | ||
| There's no way that you could get around the court and assert or anything, go straight to the Supreme Court with this. | ||
| Talk us through the game theory there for Donald Trump, because that seems less than great, running for president from a prison cell in D.C. Well, here's the deal. | ||
| Less than optimal. | ||
| And that's the problem with this judge, Tanya Shukin, who is this Obama-appointed judge. | ||
| She was a former public defender, so you would think that she would care about defendants' rights, but she doesn't. | ||
| She only cares about being a Democrat operative. | ||
| She has thrown the book at January 6th protesters, while D.C. has carjackings and murders and robberies at near-record highs. | ||
| That's the priority of the Biden administration and their Democrat judges on these D.C. courts. | ||
| But the game theory is this. | ||
| It's going to be hard for the Supreme Court to hear this case outside of the regular order. | ||
| The Florida case, the Supreme Court may have an opportunity to have a crack at that because of the way the Classified Information Procedures Act is structured, where the government can actually seek immediate appeals on bad rulings when it comes to classified information. | ||
| In this case in D.C., I think it's going to be very hard to get this before the Supreme Court before a jury finds him guilty. | ||
| The judge, this Obama judge, convicts him and sentences him. | ||
| The D.C. Circuit affirms the conviction because it's all Obama's stats. | ||
| And then, what, the Supreme Court hears this two years from now after the presidential election. | ||
| That's why it is so important that the American people who I think are waking up to this lawfare, and you're seeing President... | ||
| Trump's poll numbers rise with each one of these indictments. | ||
| How this is going to end is President Trump being put back into the White House on November 7, 2024. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Mike, my producer is telling me that perhaps you have a phone that is on vibrate that is within earshot of your mic. | ||
| Maybe it's a vibrator. | ||
| Nobody knows. | ||
| We're not asking you any personal questions. | ||
| We know that you do live inside of Hunter Biden's basement, so all things are possible. | ||
| And so, you know, we never want to embarrass you on a live feed here. | ||
| Just that vibration is coming through loud and clear. | ||
| I would say this, Ben. | ||
| The hookers in Blow are the best in Hunter Biden's basement. | ||
| Apparently he trashed his house in Malibu, and he stiffed the guy for like three months' rent. | ||
| Just a great dude, Hunter Biden. | ||
| Really, really fantastic individual. | ||
| So, when you're looking at the landscape here, Mike, you know, what is the chances of Donald Trump succeeding in getting this judge to recuse herself? | ||
| We were shocked this morning when Cash Patel was on our show talking about, this is the judge that took my lawsuit against the DNC and our discovery against the DNC for Russiagate. | ||
| And she had to recuse herself because she worked for Fusion GPS, because she worked not just working beside Hunter Biden, that's one thing, okay? | ||
| Not just working beside Hunter Biden. | ||
| She worked with the DNC and with Hillary Clinton and with Fusion GPS in order to hide these documents. | ||
| And she had to recuse herself, probably forced down from the top, on that case. | ||
| How is it possible that this judge keeps this case? | ||
| Well, I mean... | ||
| Under the statute, there's certainly an appearance of bias here if she's recused on prior cases related to Trump, and she's been a lawyer for Democrats, as you say. | ||
| That's a very good question. | ||
| Here's the problem, Ben. | ||
| You're talking about D.C. judges, right? | ||
| And these are Obama judges. | ||
| These are not people who let pesky things like the law get in the way of their power grabs and their political ends. | ||
| You know, I seriously doubt she's going to recuse on this case. | ||
| I seriously doubt that she'll allow a change in venue. | ||
| And I seriously doubt that the Obama-Stats, D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals is going to do a damn thing about this again. | ||
| This is going to have to be resolved by the election on November 7, 2024, because the Supreme Court will almost certainly not be able to reverse this conviction before then. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Bob McDonald was kept out of jail. | ||
| Effectively, the Supreme Court flipped 9-0 to keep him out of jail and overturned Jack Smith's corruption conviction. | ||
| And so, based on my reading, Bob McDonald didn't serve a single day in jail. | ||
| So, I suppose we'll see Donald Trump hitting the trail, the campaign trail, even if he's found guilty here inside of this rigged courtroom. | ||
| It seems like such a powerful play. | ||
| To working class Americans, to downtrodden Americans, to Americans who have been crushed by the justice system, sometimes wrongfully in this country. | ||
| This seems like such a strong play to go into black communities and to say, hey, there is no justice here. | ||
| I have felt the burden just like you have. | ||
| And perhaps it's time for you to think about voting for me and we can destroy this corrupt system together. | ||
| That just seems like such a crystal clear. | ||
| Incredible campaign. | ||
| Speech. | ||
| Preach. | ||
| Preach. | ||
| Like an MLK moment where Donald Trump would be able to, like, combine the downtrodden and say, there is no justice, actually. | ||
| There are two tiers of justice. | ||
| That white kid that kept shooting his gun and doing crack rocks and blow off a hooker's ass, that guy gets nothing. | ||
| And your sons and daughters go to prison for mandatory sentencing that his dad passed. | ||
| I don't think they're quite aware of what they're doing to Donald Trump. | ||
| They're turning him into Tupac. | ||
| I didn't think it would be possible to make Donald Trump sympathetic to a broad swath of the American people. | ||
| They're going to make Donald Trump sympathetic to a broad swath of the American people. | ||
| You're already seeing that in the polling after Alvin Bragg's indictment and after Jack Smith's prior indictment. | ||
| You're going to see it after this indictment. | ||
| This is bogus political lawfare by Democrats who fear that Trump is going to beat Joe Biden or Gavin Newsom on November 7th, 2024. | ||
| So they are doing the unthinkable. | ||
| They are trying to imprison their political enemy so they don't have to face him at the ballot box. | ||
| According to some of the information being released from the court, Donald Trump is being released on the condition that he will not communicate with witnesses in the case except through the presence of counsel. | ||
| He's also being told by the judge that if he violates the condition of the release, an arrest warrant will be issued for him. | ||
| And he will be detained. | ||
| And that this is a routine warning? | ||
| Trump is now signing paperwork at the defense table and swearing that he understands the conditions. | ||
| Is this normal? | ||
| None of this is normal because they are indicting a former president of the United States and the leading presidential candidate for non-crime. | ||
| So no, this is not normal. | ||
| Now, are these pretrial conditions normal for every defendant? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But this is not any normal case. | ||
| So, the next hearing date is set on August 28th, 10 a.m. | ||
| So, they're going fast. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it looks like they, I don't know if they're going to do another initial hearing on that date. | ||
| I'm not sure what they're doing. | ||
| I don't know if they did. | ||
| I thought they did the arraignment today. | ||
| Maybe they just did the initial hearing, and they're not going to do the arraignment until August 28th. | ||
| I just haven't seen the order, so I'm not sure. | ||
| How do Republicans in Congress effectively fight this? | ||
| Because, you know, Mike, I gotta tell you, we've seen a lot of strongly worded letters and tweets. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| If tweets could take down the Biden regime, we've seen them all. | ||
| But there are, or X's, whatever you want to call them. | ||
| But there seems to be absolutely, abundantly, zero action. | ||
| Yeah, and that's a huge problem, right? | ||
| We need to have... | ||
| Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Committee chairman. | ||
| I was a vocal critic of him for many years on the Big Tech fight. | ||
| I praised him profusely after he sent the letter to Alvin Bragg when Alvin Bragg was politicizing and weaponizing the Manhattan DA's office to go after Trump and indicting him for the non-crime of settling a nuisance claim. | ||
| But Jim Jordan needs to step up again. | ||
| This is critically important. | ||
| He runs the House Judiciary Committee with oversight over the Justice Department. | ||
| He needs to haul in These key people and ask them. | ||
| They don't need to ask about the ongoing investigation. | ||
| They need to ask them how they went about making these decisions to indict. | ||
| The coincidence of evidence coming out on Biden and then President Trump charged the next day on three different occasions now with the Mar-a-Lago raid, the superseding indictment, and now this indictment. | ||
| There are a lot of questions that need to be asked about this, about the timing of this, about the communications that the Justice Department may have had with Biden or the White House or any other person outside of the Department of Justice. | ||
| This just stinks to high hell what's going on here. | ||
| And again, this is lawfare. | ||
| This is a zero-sum game. | ||
| If we do not have these Democrats... | ||
| On defense, they're going to be on offense. | ||
| And they've largely been on offense for the last year since the Mar-a-Lago raid because we don't have them on defense other than the small defense when Jim Jordan sent a letter to Alvin Bragg. | ||
| Why are you using federal funds to interfere with the presidential election? | ||
| I praise Jim Jordan with that. | ||
| They really need to step it up. | ||
| They need to issue subpoenas. | ||
| They need to have hearings. | ||
| They need to get documents. | ||
| They need to open an impeachment inquiry on President Biden for his corruption and his weaponization of his government and Merrick Garland for weaponization and covering up the corruption. | ||
| House Republicans need to get off their asses and move now. | ||
| Mike, I know you only have 30 seconds left, but real quick, are you talking about what it sounds like you're talking about is your three-week reign of terror? | ||
| During my three-week reign of terror, I mean, there's going to be so much payback when Trump is back in the White House, and I hope Democrats understand that they will be indicted, they will be fired, there will be hell to pay. | ||
| Two wrongs don't make it right, but it makes it even. | ||
| And there will be hell to pay when President Trump is back in the White House. | ||
| I will make damn sure of it. | ||
| Baby, President Trump is on the move. | ||
| We're seeing that motorcade right now. | ||
| Mike, thank you so very much for joining the program. | ||
| Everyone go to the Article 3 Project. | ||
| Support Mike, his work. | ||
| Follow him on Twitter.com, where he absolutely throws bombs day and night. | ||
| And we pray for Mike's reign of terror to begin as quickly and swiftly as possible. | ||
| Thank you, Mike. | ||
| Thank you, Ben. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, here's what you see on the screen. | ||
| We got the motorcade rolling. | ||
| That motorcade is rolling. | ||
| You see it. | ||
| That thing is traveling. | ||
| Here it goes, a roundy round in the loop. | ||
| It is going to the airport now. | ||
| What you're going to watch is Donald Trump heading to Reagan National Airport, where his flight is a perfectly dark and dreary, Gross, Washington, D.C. day. | ||
| We are inside of the press van right now. | ||
| That is a live shot of the swamp. | ||
| The disgusting and despicable swamp. | ||
| Joining me right now is somebody who, perhaps two young men who are in the swamp. | ||
| I believe we have ALX and Danny Day Urbina, ALX, the executive producer of this show, who is in the swamp, staying at what used to be the Trump Hotel, a place where Donald Trump would probably be tonight. | ||
| And Danny DeUrbina, who is inexplicably going to school in Washington, D.C., and we're so excited for him to be completing his last year in Washington, D.C. Gentlemen, thank you so much for joining the program. | ||
| We have Donald Trump flying down the road here. | ||
| This is a drive that I'm sure you boys have done many times, heading out to Reagan Airport. | ||
| What did we see today? | ||
| Talk us through what you've been seeing online. | ||
| Yeah, so I've been seeing a lot of support. | ||
| Just like the last two coming through. | ||
| Obviously, we're not seeing the same support in D.C. as Florida. | ||
| Like I was saying to you earlier, I really wish this was still a Trump property because, I mean, staying here and then having, you know... | ||
| Like I said, there's not really anywhere in D.C. to really stop for him. | ||
| This would have been the one place. | ||
| So it would have been really cool if he came inside of the lobby or whatever. | ||
| It would have been like a mini Trump rally here. | ||
| But nonetheless, you did see supporters out front with the massive flag earlier. | ||
| You had the classic characters, the Trump prisoner protester making a fool out of himself a couple times. | ||
| But I mean, some strong support. | ||
| Considering it is D.C., I think. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Danny, how's D.C. treating you today? | ||
| Uh-oh. | ||
| Danny's on mute. | ||
| Danny's on mute. | ||
| Time to bring in David Leatherwood, who is also here from our team. | ||
| By the way, when we tell you that we are independent news, I gotta tell you, we have the best people. | ||
| To paraphrase my favorite president, we have the best people. | ||
| ALX is our executive producer. | ||
| David is a creative director here. | ||
| And Danny Derbina is our rapid response. | ||
| And have you rapidly turned on the microphone, Danny? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| I think Nina Jankiewicz was messing with my audio there. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I just want to let everyone know we are getting the live feed up. | ||
| We're going to get Donald Trump. | ||
| If Donald Trump stops and talks to the press, it will be at the airport. | ||
| It will be at his plane. | ||
| We're going to get that live feed for you. | ||
| Danny, what's up? | ||
| Yep, so I'm actually in Miami today, so I'm not dealing with all the chaos in D.C. today. | ||
| But I will say, just the thought of his motorcade wailing and sirens through D.C., I can just imagine every single person, their little small studio apartment, just bursting into tears as he rolls by. | ||
| So that brings me a little bit of joy. | ||
| But I will say, the support has been pretty incredible online from what I've seen. | ||
| And the tone has kind of changed a little bit. | ||
| At first, it was just, like, the first indictment. | ||
| The second indictment was kind of a shock. | ||
| Like, we cannot believe this is happening. | ||
| This is, you know, the former president of the United States. | ||
| Like, how is this happening in, like, America? | ||
| And what we're seeing this time is Trump's kind of, like, joking about it on Truth Social, saying, like, I just need one more indictment and my election is secured. | ||
| He's kind of, like, owning that happy warrior mentality. | ||
| And I think the base resonates with that right now. | ||
| I think the tone is really... | ||
| And we're going to work really hard in 2024 to win this election and, you know, hopefully take out the ghosts in the machine that are currently poisoning our judicial system in America. | ||
| Yes, exactly. | ||
| David, what we are seeing right now is inside of the Donald Trump motorcade. | ||
| We are actually traveling with Donald Trump in his motorcade to the airport to his famous Trump jet. | ||
| David, you are very good at picking up the energy online, especially inside of the MAGA movement, of which you are one of the greatest cheerleaders for. | ||
| Tell us, what's the energy like right now inside of MAGAdonia? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know what? | |
| I mean, just following this whole indictment saga, all of MAGA is just by this point, by the third indictment, they just think this is such a crock of BS that it's just such... | ||
| A joke at this point. | ||
| And now I've actually seen people that said, I used to suffer from TDS syndrome. | ||
| I used to have Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| And I never, ever thought in my right mind that I would actually be persuaded to vote for this guy. | ||
| But now after the third indictment. | ||
| I might actually vote for this guy. | ||
| And the people that already love Donald Trump are behind him stronger than ever. | ||
| They said, I don't care. | ||
| He could be indicted a thousand times and I would still vote for him at this point because the American people are seeing through the gimmick. | ||
| I mean, this is all just a charade. | ||
| You know, people feel insulted that the government thinks they're so stupid that they don't see through this. | ||
| You know, it's really insulting. | ||
| And I think your average everyday American is, you know, if they weren't already awake before, they're waking up now. | ||
| Yeah, we are waking up to watching, just so that you know, we are now on the tarmac at Reagan National. | ||
| I've never seen footage like this. | ||
| This is pretty cool. | ||
| We have the live feed driving down the tarmac at Reagan National Airport. | ||
| Perhaps you've flown in there. | ||
| Maybe you have. | ||
| This is wild. | ||
| We're going to drive up to Donald Trump's plane. | ||
| What do you think, ALX? | ||
| You've met with Donald Trump. | ||
| You had a seven-hour dinner with Donald Trump a couple of weeks ago that you wore inexplicably a pair of tube socks to. | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| Is Donald Trump going to get out and say something to the people? | ||
| I don't think he'll say anything on the tarmac. | ||
| Maybe a two-worder. | ||
| But perhaps when he gets to Bedminster, I think he might say something. | ||
| I think he's more likely to say something there than before he boards. | ||
| But yeah, on the actual plane front, though, I haven't gotten to go on just yet. | ||
| The last time I was supposed to go on, didn't end up going on. | ||
| It is one of the greatest private jets, Boeing 757. | ||
| It's an absolutely incredible jet. | ||
| But this footage is insane because we're seeing the private side of the Reagan airport. | ||
| But something that I'd like to touch on from David's point is how he said this is turning never-Trumpers into Trumpers. | ||
| I forgot who said it. | ||
| Somebody said... | ||
| Would you vote for him if he was in prison? | ||
| And then somebody who was like Team DeSantis said, I'm more likely to vote for him if he was in prison. | ||
| He could actually run from prison and then win and then pardon himself and get out. | ||
| I forgot who I saw that for. | ||
| Do we have audio? | ||
| Do we have audio, Royce? | ||
| Oh, because they're running. | ||
| They're running. | ||
| Donald Trump may speak. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| There's no audio yet. | ||
| There's no audio yet, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is wild footage. | ||
| I mean, this is really cool. | ||
| Being able to see Trump's jet from this angle, this is really cool. | ||
| Rolls-Royce and I flew on Trump's jet a couple of months ago. | ||
| It was wild. | ||
| Let's see if Donald Trump walks up and talks to the people. | ||
| Walks up and talks to the press. | ||
| Is that him? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I think so. | |
| Sure looks like it. | ||
| I think we have audio. | ||
| Okay, now we have audio, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Yeah, he might do a gaggle or something. | ||
| We are live with the big black Donald Trump umbrellas. | ||
| We're wiping the camera. | ||
| Come on! | ||
| Can't get better than this. | ||
| What's for dinner on the plane today? | ||
| What do we think? | ||
| McDonald's. | ||
| That's McDonald's. | ||
| Go to. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I feel like there should be some dramatic cinematic score to this. | |
| It's so dramatic and kind of exciting. | ||
| We have some sound effects. | ||
| Royce can play a sound effect. | ||
| Wrong sound effect. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not that one. | |
| There you go. | ||
| Royce can sing for us too. | ||
| Jack of all trades. | ||
| Alright. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Certainly making the exit dramatic. | |
| Alright, alright. | ||
| Here's one that says rock and roll. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's play it. | |
| Yeah! | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| He's like, give me that. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| Here we go! | ||
| Here he comes. | ||
| Well, thank you very much. | ||
| This is a very sad day for America. | ||
| And it was also very sad driving through Washington, D.C. and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls and the graffiti. | ||
| This is not the place that I left. | ||
| It's a very sad thing to see it. | ||
| When you look at what's happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent. | ||
| This was never supposed to happen in America. | ||
| This is the persecution of the person that's leading by very, very substantial numbers in the Republican primary and leading Biden by a lot. | ||
| So if you can't beat him, you persecute him or you prosecute him. | ||
| We can't let this happen in America. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you want these trials to happen before the 2024 election? | |
| Thank you. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, there we go. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| We got him. | ||
| Donald Trump made a comment. | ||
| Let's go ahead and rip that so that we can play it back. | ||
| Donald Trump, speak in my language, man. | ||
| Royce and I have been to Washington, D.C. ALX is there right now. | ||
| Danny Darbina lives there and David travels there quite often. | ||
| That place has become an absolute asshole. | ||
| Pardon my language. | ||
| But Washington, D.C. has become filthy. | ||
| Disgusting. | ||
| And as somebody who lived in Washington, D.C. for 15 years, I never saw it cleaner than when Donald Trump was in office. | ||
| The place was pristine. | ||
| Nobody effed around when Donald Trump was in office. | ||
| And then Joe Biden gets in there, the place is a dump. | ||
| There were homeless encampments, Rolls Royce. | ||
| Homeless encampments outside of the White House. | ||
| We saw homeless people living in lean-tos outside of the White House. | ||
| What did we think of Donald Trump's comments there, boys? | ||
| It was pretty awesome. | ||
| It's like he hit the nail on the head with the graffiti and the homeless encampments, like you just said. | ||
| I remember we were both here last year, last August, I believe it was, and we were going, after we filmed the Newsmax episode, we were going to have lunch, and you're like, okay, I'll meet you at this spot, you grab a table, I'm going to go film this homeless encampment. | ||
| It was right in front of the White House, because we were both walking by it, and we're like... | ||
| Oh my God, this isn't the DC that... | ||
| Because we hadn't been there, I don't think, in the past year before that. | ||
| And we're like, wow, there's so many more tents, so much more homeless people. | ||
| And it's so much more of a dump than under the previous administration. | ||
| So yeah, it just... | ||
| He hit the nail on the head. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| This is going to be the next San Francisco, I think, soon. | ||
| If we don't have new leadership here. | ||
| But yeah. | ||
| David, you've been such a staunch supporter of Donald Trump, and you were watching this man actually weather these charges really unbelievably. | ||
| And just the weight of the world on the man's shoulders, what does it mean to you watching Donald Trump walk out and say, this is a sad day for America? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, you know what I was thinking when I was watching that? | |
| You could just hear it in the tone in his voice and see it in his eyes. | ||
| You know, he just left the courthouse after being arraigned, and he's talking about how sad it was to see Washington, D.C. in such great decline. | ||
| Instead of, you know, getting straight to talking about the charges or whatever, he loves it. | ||
| He loves America so much that that is what was stuck with him, is that how sad it is to see this city that's supposed to be the capital of our nation. | ||
| It actually is a beautiful city. | ||
| There's a lot of beautiful buildings. | ||
| There's a lot of beautiful monuments. | ||
| It's historic in so many ways. | ||
| And he was just sad. | ||
| That it's in such decline. | ||
| I mean, and to me, it kind of reminded me of how much he truly just loves America. | ||
| And that was one of the things that I've loved about him since day one. | ||
| He never had to run. | ||
| He never had to put himself through this, but he genuinely loves this country. | ||
| And I just, I thought it was pretty remarkable, you know, the way he commented on that right out the gate before he even started addressing the charges. | ||
| Donald Trump waving at his supporters on the way to the plane. | ||
| We actually have some of the first images out of Donald Trump actually saying hello to his supporters. | ||
| Danny, does this help or hurt Trump? | ||
| I think it helps. | ||
| I think we were talking about that, right? | ||
| So we saw people who are very anti-Trump who are coming out and now saying, well, this kind of validates what he said when he walked down that escalator. | ||
| He's that man standing in the gap between the American people and the ruling class that hates them. | ||
| And so I think this is... | ||
| The battle sort of encompassed in one, well, now three indictments, right? | ||
| So we're seeing what that actually looks like when it plays out. | ||
| I think what he said coming off of his motorcade was just spot on. | ||
| I've been in D.C. for the past three years, and I've seen the rot. | ||
| I think D.C. almost encapsulates what that cultural rot looks like when you remove God or any sense of service. | ||
| Everyone there is just kind of miserable looking down at their phones all day. | ||
| And when you do that, your city just crumbles. | ||
| It destroys itself. | ||
| And that's kind of what's happening to our country as a whole. | ||
| But D.C. kind of encapsulates that spirit. | ||
| And so we see that in the decay of our judicial system and obviously in the decay of our streets. | ||
| You mentioned the trash. | ||
| You mentioned the graffiti. | ||
| On my campus, we get about a billion texts a day, text alerts, saying that there was an armed robbery on campus or someone got carjacked. | ||
| Like, it's like a slew of texts all day that actually our campus had to reinstitute armed police officers. | ||
| And they had been all woke and they'd gotten rid of it. | ||
| And now they're like, no, we actually need it to keep our city safe. | ||
| And so I think he hit the nail on the head there, talking about the decay of our nation. | ||
| I think that's kind of a, it's a good message that really shows that he's standing in the gap. | ||
| And I think this trial encompasses that as well. | ||
| This is a live shot of Donald Trump on his plane waiting to depart on the runway. | ||
| We are looking at this live shot as Donald Trump is on his plane. | ||
| Undoubtedly, that plane smells like delicious McDonald's fries and chicken nuggies. | ||
| I've been on that plane. | ||
| That is exactly what it smells like. | ||
| And it is absolutely another world experience to eat McDonald's on Donald Trump's plane. | ||
| What Donald Trump did say moments ago, we now have that loaded. | ||
| He was speaking live and there was a little bit of clutter and a lot of movement of the camera. | ||
| We now have a better shot. | ||
| Let's replay that. | ||
| It's worth listening to again. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| This is a very sad day for America and it was also very sad driving through Washington, D.C. and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls and the graffiti. | ||
| This is not... | ||
| The place that I left. | ||
| It's a very sad thing to see it. | ||
| When you look at what's happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent. | ||
| This was never supposed to happen in America. | ||
| This is the persecution of the person that's leading by very, very substantial numbers in the Republican primary and leading Biden by a lot. | ||
| So if you can't beat him, you persecute him or you prosecute him. | ||
| We can't let this happen in America. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
|

|
Do you want these trials to happen before the 2024 election? | |
| All right, there you have the statement. | ||
| Basically, sad day. | ||
| He made a point of pointing out how filthy Washington, D.C. is and the empty buildings is not wrong there, of course. | ||
| He says it is a political persecution of the person who is running against Joe Biden that this should never happen in America. | ||
| And yet, Jesse... | ||
| And yet, here it is. | ||
| Donald Trump's plane on the move. | ||
| ALX, I have before me the charges. | ||
| I have before me all of the charges. | ||
| Here they are. | ||
| Trump now faces three indictments, 78 charges, 641 years in prison. | ||
| All the charges were brought by allies of the regime during election season. | ||
| If this were overseas, we know that this country would have been invaded by now. | ||
| You can see here the charges on screen. | ||
| Like, your thoughts, you're a young man, you're a patriot, you love this country, do you ever think you'd see this in the United States of America? | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| And the thing is about this indictment, which separates it from the previous two, are it now calls into question, like, the First Amendment for all Americans. | ||
| We had, like, the Mar-a-Lago, you know, documents case and, you know, his business. | ||
| Tax whatever in New York. | ||
| But this is something that, like, number one, he said peacefully and patriotically go to the Capitol or whatever. | ||
| That's literally what his official statements were on that day. | ||
| And he is now being charged with trying to, you know, incite the insurrection at the Capitol and acting like this is his fault and everything like that. | ||
| And he very clearly stated that it was, you know, a peaceful gathering. | ||
| So that calls into question, like, what American citizens can say. | ||
| Why is his speech any different because he was the president? | ||
| And that actually makes it more scary because he is the president of the United States, the most powerful person in the world, and his speech is being called into question. | ||
| You or I could say something similar, and now it's a supposedly fair game to be indicted over. | ||
| So, it's actually insane. | ||
| It is actually, actually insane. | ||
| Does this make him stronger, David, as we watch the plane taxi down the runway? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I mean, I have to say yes. | |
| I mean, and he already was so strong, this just kind of cements it, right? | ||
| Expecting a fourth indictment coming down the pipeline. | ||
| I mean, it's just so ridiculous that our country has existed for over 200 years, and this has literally never happened, not even one time. | ||
| And then all of a sudden, in a span of, what, it's been six months, they're slapping this guy with three indictments, 78 charges. | ||
| The day before the indictment was announced on Tuesday, The New York Times released an article saying how strong Donald Trump was polling. | ||
| The CNN released an article saying this guy might actually win. | ||
| They know. | ||
| They're scared. | ||
| And it's so funny. | ||
| You think they would have learned after 2016 and after 2020, all of the attacks. | ||
| They don't work. | ||
| They just make this man stronger. | ||
| It's funny because they talk about the Trump curse, and I'm not really trying to be superstitious or be a conspiracy theorist, but it's like, this man, there's something about him. | ||
| It's like he's untouchable. | ||
| Anytime you try and go after him, you end up getting destroyed. | ||
| And I just think it's just... | ||
| He's turning him into, like, this Superman figure in America. | ||
| And he's a symbol of hope and kind of perseverance to so many people. | ||
| They're like, man, the man is now after Trump. | ||
| And so many people feel victimized by the man in this country, by the government. | ||
| And now they relate to Donald Trump even more because he represents that now. | ||
| Do you think that that's, Danny, you think, like, that's going to work on the campaign trail? | ||
| Do you think the whole they're coming after me? | ||
| I know more than anyone that this is a corrupted system. | ||
| I know more than anyone what it's like to watch Hunter Biden, privileged white kid, skate on drug charges, gun charges, lobbying charges. | ||
| Millions of Americans face these charges, and then they face federal prison for the rest of their lives, and Hunter Biden gets to skate. | ||
| Donald Trump gets to, like, use that now. | ||
| You are handing him what seems like a massive gift inside of the 2024 campaign. | ||
| Maybe I'm wrong. | ||
| Danny's back on mute. | ||
| Danny, you're back on mute. | ||
| Can you unmute him? | ||
| I cannot. | ||
| You won't let me unmute him. | ||
| Sorry, Danny. | ||
| We cannot hear you. | ||
| Apologize, guys. | ||
| Danny's on mute. | ||
| There he is. | ||
| He's on mute. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Come on, buddy. | ||
| Yeah, so what's that quote? | ||
| Like, they're going after you. | ||
| I'm just in the way. | ||
| This kind of encapsulates that. | ||
| And I think, like David said, it's kind of like the Teflon Don at this point, where nothing sticks. | ||
| And I think if he does embrace that happy warrior mentality of just kind of like, I'm going to take the arrows for you. | ||
| I'm going to take the bullets because we're going to win in 2024 and we're going to take back our system and our country. | ||
| I think that's a selling message, though. | ||
| So, final words, ALX, from the energy sort of epicenter of the movement. | ||
| How have people been responding to this? | ||
| What has establishment reporters been saying? | ||
| What has the left been saying? | ||
| What has the right been saying? | ||
| Well, I mean, on CNN and MSNBC, what can you expect? | ||
| I saw a clip from MSNBC. | ||
| They were basically talking about how Jack Smith was a triathlete or whatever and how this matches the energy of how great he is in these cases or whatever, like basically fawning over him. | ||
| So, I mean, that's par for the course for MSNBC and CNN. | ||
| But, yeah, everyone else with a brain in their heads. | ||
| You know, who actually cares about the future of this country are really rallying behind Donald Trump, I believe. | ||
| And I know he has some primary challengers. | ||
| Vivek has been one of the strongest allies that Trump has had. | ||
| He was here in D.C. in front of the courthouse. | ||
| He's going to be suing over the FOIA requests. | ||
| And you've seen him elevate in the polls over that support. | ||
| So I believe everybody else in the movement is really rallying behind him. | ||
| They see the danger of where this could bring our country. | ||
| And I really do have faith that the Supreme Court is going to step in and make a fool out of Jack Smith again, like the previous case. | ||
| And I hope that will happen. | ||

So, to be fair, I actually took that photo in 2020. | |
| One of my very good friends is a... | ||
| Ballerina and a Vogue model and her and her... | ||
| A husband actually transformed an RV into the Barbie RV. | ||
| The whole thing is pink. | ||
| And so they invited me to, she's a canceled Barbie. | ||
| So she was canceled for being a conservative, much like I was canceled back in 2020 as well. | ||
| So we did a photo shoot. | ||
| And I've had that on there for like over a year now. | ||
| And, you know, Barbie just happened to come out a couple weeks ago. | ||
| And, you know, every time my tweets go viral on leftist liberal Twitter, they come to my page and they lose their minds. | ||
| I'm wearing pink on my page. | ||
| They can't handle it. | ||
| So I love it. | ||
