Democrats don't care about the truth. That's not why they insisted on this FBI investigation. This is about digging up more dirt on Kavanaugh, even if it has nothing to do with sexual assault. Republicans never should have agreed to it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

| So, the FBI investigation into Brett Kavanaugh is happening—I should say, another investigation. | |
| The man has been investigated by the FBI—through FBI background checks, like, six times. | |
| So, this is the seventh time, the seventh investigation. | |
| No allegation or hint of sexual misconduct was uncovered through the first six investigations, so now we're going to have a seventh one, and maybe they'll turn something up this time around. | |
| Now, I've heard some very, frankly, well, stupid Republicans and conservatives who have said, hey, you know, there's no problem here. | |
| There's no problem with an FBI investigation. | |
| What's the big deal with an FBI investigation, right? It's only going to last a week, and it'll help us get to the truth. So it's great. You know, you don't lose anything here. | |
| Well, to the people in that camp, you really need to wake up from your coma. | |
| You really... | |
| I think it's time now. | |
| It's a time to awaken and look around and just exist within reality. | |
| I think it's really time for you to do that if you're in that camp. | |
| You need to realize that nothing the Democrats say is true. | |
| They're the ones who want this FBI investigation. | |
| Nothing they say is true. | |
| Nothing they say is said in good faith. | |
| Nothing, nothing at all. | |
| There's a reason why Democrats desperately want this investigation, and like everything else that they say and they do, it's got nothing to do with the truth whatsoever, ever, okay? | |
| If Democrats were interested in truth, They wouldn't have held on to these allegations until the last minute. | |
| If Democrats were interested in the truth, they wouldn't be entertaining wild conspiracy theories. | |
| They wouldn't be entertaining these wild stories from emotionally unbalanced women about roving high school rape gangs, okay? | |
| If Democrats were interested in the truth, they wouldn't have announced that they believe Christine Ford before they'd ever even heard either one of them testify. | |
| If Democrats were interested in the truth, they would have taken the opportunity | |
| During the hearing to ask Christine Ford some actual questions about what allegedly happened Rather than just taking turns giving her high-fives and each other high-fives If Democrats were interested in the truth, they would have actually asked Kavanaugh About the allegations rather than asking him about things that were in his yearbook when he was 17 But Democrats are not interested in the truth at all whatsoever | |
| In fact, they've already said that Kavanaugh is unfit for the Supreme Court, no matter what the FBI investigation turns out. | |
| They made that declaration minutes after his nomination was announced. | |
| They'd already decided that he was unfit. | |
| And they made it at the hearing on Thursday, before the guy had even testified they had convicted him. | |
| They've already said that they believe the accuser. | |
| They don't need any more information. | |
| And even now, as they demand an FBI investigation, they've already made it abundantly clear that they're going to oppose him no matter what. | |
| And they're going to be unsatisfied with the investigation no matter what. | |
| But the investigation won't turn up anything at all, as we're all well aware, if we've been paying attention, because there's no evidence. | |
| Okay? | |
| There are no witnesses. | |
| The accuser doesn't even know the year or the place that this attack allegedly happened. | |
| So they have nothing to go on. | |
| They have nothing to investigate. | |
| We talk about FBI investigation. | |
| An FBI investigation has to be investigating something. | |
| What are they going to investigate? | |
| The only thing they can do is get the people who are allegedly involved or allegedly present and ask them about it. | |
| Well, all of them have already been asked, and they've already put their answers down on paper in writing on the record under penalty of felony, and they've all said that it didn't occur. | |
| So what else are they going to say? | |
| It's not as though these people have said that, yeah, the thing happened, but it didn't happen exactly as Christine Ford said it happened. | |
| Well, if that was the case, then there would be something to talk about. | |
| But what they're saying is, this didn't happen. | |
| This event didn't happen. | |
| Or if it did, I have no memory of it whatsoever. | |
| Christine Ford's best friend in high school saying, I didn't even know this guy. | |
| I wasn't at this thing. | |
| So what is she going to say to the FBI? | |
| Is she going to say it again in Greek? | |
| In Spanish? | |
| What does she need to do? | |
| Does she need to communicate it via sign language or carrier pigeon or Morse code? | |
| Does she need to draw a picture of it not happening? | |
| Does she need to sing it like an opera? | |
| I mean, what else can she do? | |
| What else can any of them do? | |
| Ford says that a certain party happened 35 years ago and a certain thing happened at that party. | |
| Everyone else concerned, everyone else concerned says that no such party happened. | |
| Okay? | |
| And the only person who claims the party happened can't tell you when or where it happened. | |
| So how can you investigate that? | |
| It's like if I called up the FBI and I said, hey, FBI, I need you to investigate a terrorist threat, OK? | |
| I need you to investigate. | |
| And they said, OK, who made the threat? | |
| I don't know. | |
| When was the threat made? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Well, what was the threat exactly? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Where was the threat made? | |
| I don't know. | |
| What was the threat against? | |
| What's the terrorist going to attack? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Well, what? | |
| I don't know. | |
| I don't know. | |
| It's just, there was a threat, okay? | |
| I mean, there was a threat. | |
| I remember the threat, and I remember how I feel when I heard the threat. | |
| I was very scared. | |
| So, please investigate. | |
| No, the FBI wouldn't investigate that because there's nothing to investigate. | |
| That's not even, there's nothing for them to go on. | |
| For me to say that a terrorist threat was made by someone, somewhere, at some point, is not enough. | |
| And by the way, in that analogy, at least a terrorist threat is the kind of thing that the FBI might investigate. | |
| On the other hand, groping allegations between high schoolers 35 years ago in the early 80s is not the kind of thing that a federal law enforcement agency investigates because it's not a federal crime. | |
| So the investigation will accomplish nothing of substance, lead nowhere, So why are the Democrats so intent on it? | |
| Well, there are three reasons why they're intent on it, okay? | |
| And again, it's got nothing to do with the truth. | |
| Number one, they want to delay Kavanaugh's confirmation so that they have more time to dig up dirt about him. | |
| Number two, they want to delay Kavanaugh's confirmation so they have more time to put pressure on the cowardly, squishy Republicans like Jeff Flake and Murkowski and Collins. | |
| And number three, they hope, although the FBI said they're not going to do this, but what they're hoping is that the FBI will follow irrelevant trails into unconnected but embarrassing matters, thus further destroying Kavanaugh's reputation. | |
| They know that the FBI is not going to come up with evidence about this allegation. | |
| They know that. | |
| Okay? | |
| That's what you need to understand. | |
| Everybody who knows anything, And no matter where they stand on whether or not this investigation should happen, they all know, every rational person knows, that the FBI will not find out anything about this actual thing itself. | |
| What they're hoping, though, is that they'll find other information that's got nothing to do with sexual assault, perhaps, but will still be embarrassing for Brett Kavanaugh. | |
| And it goes without saying, as I said already, Democrats will demand another delay after this concludes. | |
| They'll call the investigation unfair, no matter how it's conducted, no matter how it concludes. | |
| Short of the FBI coming out and saying, yes, Brett Kavanaugh is a serial rapist and he's going to prison. | |
| Okay. | |
| Short of that, they're going to be unhappy. | |
| They're not going to be happy with a week. | |
| They wouldn't be happy with two weeks. | |
| They're not happy with anything. | |
| Okay. | |
| So, so we understand this. | |
| So I say it again. | |
| No matter what, no matter what, they will not be swayed. | |
| No matter what. | |
| The people who are against Kavanaugh will remain against him no matter what. | |
| Christine Ford could retract her allegation and it wouldn't sway them. | |
| It really wouldn't. | |
| Okay. | |
| One other thing. | |
| One other thing I want to mention here. | |
| Somewhat connected. | |
| You're going to hear a lot this week, and we've already heard quite a bit in the last few days, but you're going to hear even more about Brett Kavanaugh supposedly lying under oath, okay, in front of the Senate. | |
| I know that the liberals are hoping that this is proven by the FBI investigation, but it can't be. | |
| It won't be either way. | |
| We'll get to that in a minute. | |
| But the claim is—what we're hearing, and I think we're going to hear more about—this is the theme that's going to be hammered on quite a bit—is that we know that Kavanaugh did lie at least a couple of times about a couple of seemingly silly things, but he lied. | |
| That's the claim. | |
| Because, one, he was asked about the Devil's Triangle, which was something that he wrote in his yearbook about the Devil's Triangle. | |
| He was asked, what does that refer to? | |
| He said it was a drinking game. | |
| Two, he was asked about boofing, okay? | |
| Again, that was in his yearbook, and he said that it's flatulence, right? | |
| The problem is that, at least today, Those terms don't mean those things, okay? | |
| It's not what those terms mean today. | |
| Devil's Triangle is a sex act and boofing is where you consume alcohol through your rectum, okay? | |
| Don't try it at home, kids. | |
| Or at work, actually. | |
| Don't try it anywhere in general. | |
| So, especially at work, honestly. | |
| I mean, you really just shouldn't try it. | |
| So we're told that he lied under oath, and so even if he didn't assault anyone, he should be disqualified just on that basis alone. | |
| That's the argument. | |
| So should he be? | |
| Is he now disqualified anyway because of the things that he said in front of the Senate? | |
| I say no. | |
| For three reasons, okay? | |
| Number one. | |
| These are slang words and terms, and it's possible that they meant something else back then. | |
| I mean, slang changes over time. | |
| It's possible that his group of friends had developed a different meaning for those terms, or that the terms have just developed. | |
| I mean, it's possible that Devil's Triangle was a drinking game back then, and then later became associated with a sex act. | |
| I mean, who knows? | |
| You know, and whether or not that was a commonly used expression, the fact is, I mean, my friends and I, when I was a kid, when I was a teenager, we had all kinds of slang words and terms and phrases. | |
| We had practically our own language. | |
| And I think that's pretty common, especially among guys. | |
| So, you know, you've got to keep that in mind. | |
| Number two, even if those terms really don't and didn't even back then mean what Kavanaugh said, you still can't prove he lied. | |
| You could never prove that, because it could be that he just forgot. | |
| He could have misremembered. | |
| Christine Ford forgot a lot of things, okay? | |
| She forgot many, many important details. | |
| But she still felt okay coming out with these allegations against someone, even though she didn't know even the basic details about when and where it happened. | |
| So she forgot that. | |
| I think Kavanaugh is entitled to forget what dumb slang terms meant 35 years ago. | |
| So regardless, worst case, you would just say, well, maybe he forgot. | |
| Number three, all right, let's say for the sake of discussion that Kavanaugh did remember what those terms meant, and they didn't mean what he said. | |
| And so he did lie. | |
| Let's just say, OK, again, that can never be proven. | |
| We can never know that it was a lie. | |
| So it's kind of irrelevant anyway, because we can't know. | |
| But let's just say for now that it was a lie. | |
| OK, let's just follow that thread. | |
| It was a lie under oath. | |
| For the sake of discussion, a lie in front of a senatorial committee under oath. | |
| Would that disqualify him? | |
| And I would still say even then, no. | |
| And I know we can all say, well it was a lie under oath, it was perjury! | |
| Oh my goodness! | |
| It doesn't matter what it was about! | |
| It's a lie under oath, that's it! | |
| Really? | |
| Are you sure about it? | |
| Are you sure that it really doesn't matter what it was about? | |
| Are you sure? | |
| I know it sounds very noble for you to say that, and you sound very honest. | |
| You say, well, the words, I would never lie under oath about anything. | |
| I mean, if anyone would do that, they're a pathological liar. | |
| Terrible. | |
| Sounds very noble of you. | |
| I don't believe you, though. | |
| That's the thing. | |
| I don't believe you. | |
| Or I don't think that you've thought this all the way through. | |
| Now, look, it's wrong to lie. | |
| It's wrong to lie under oath. | |
| It's wrong to lie in any situation. | |
| It's wrong to lie on a boat with a goat, in a house with a mouse, you know, anywhere. | |
| And if he did lie about those things, then he should repent of it before God. | |
| But I am not comfortable setting a precedent where a Supreme Court nominee can be disqualified by that kind of thing. | |
| What I mean is, these were humiliating, irrelevant, deeply personal questions that were asked in bad faith in order to paint him as a pervert, a drunk, and a rapist. | |
| Okay? | |
| So if he lied, if, then he lied out of humiliation, Embarrassment, and probably a certain contempt for the questions themselves and the people who are asking them, and probably a certain feeling that, well, these people don't have any right to this information in the first place. | |
| Does that make it okay, morally, objectively? | |
| No. | |
| Does it make it disqualifying? | |
| Well, think very long and hard before you call it disqualifying. | |
| Just think about it. | |
| Because if that's disqualifying, then guess what? | |
| This is the game from here on out. | |
| Are you prepared for that? | |
| Your very noble and honest position, this is where it brings us. | |
| Are you prepared for that? | |
| It means that from here on out, Democrats will try to disqualify every Supreme Court nominee by traipsing them in front of the Senate and asking them the most personal, embarrassing, irrelevant, bad faith questions possible. | |
| And if they can back the person into a corner where they skate the truth out of sheer humiliation, Then they're disqualified. | |
| And so suddenly, the litmus test for the highest court in the land becomes a person's ability to endorse shame and mockery from the vultures in the Democrat Party. | |
| But why should that be the litmus test? | |
| Why is that all this? | |
| I know you might say, well, no, the litmus test is honesty. | |
| Well, look, we already know that nobody is 100% honest. | |
| Everyone tells lies, even Supreme Court justices. | |
| Everybody does, sometimes. | |
| Okay? | |
| It's bad. | |
| Everyone does it, right? | |
| So it's not as though we're under any illusion that we're going to find someone who's 100% totally honest all the time. | |
| What we want to find out about, apparently, if this becomes a litmus test, it's will they be 100% honest in that situation with the most personal, irrelevant, embarrassing details asked by people in bad faith for the purpose of painting them as something that they are not? | |
| Will they be totally honest in that situation? | |
| And I say, why should that be the litmus test for the Supreme Court? | |
| Because it's got nothing to do with what the Supreme Court does. | |
| Nothing at all. | |
| I mean, this whole circus act has nothing to do with the Supreme Court. | |
| They're going to sit down and they're going to decide legal opinion. | |
| They're going to look at cases and apply it to the Constitution. | |
| And so if we've got someone doing that who, you know, draws a certain line and says, look, I'm just not going to, you know, I'm not going to tell you this kind of information about, you know, my personal life. | |
| Well, what does that have to do? | |
| Who cares? | |
| What does that have to do with the, with whether or not they can assess the constitutionality of a situation? | |
| So, again, I mean, let's just, let's just, let's just follow this thread. | |
| Okay. | |
| So, so what if the next nominee, You know, you've got the next nominee up there, and they're under oath, right? | |
| And so they say, you know, they're asked, Judge, we heard that you have a flatulence problem. | |
| Is that true? | |
| Judge, is it true that you peed the bed until 12th grade? | |
| Ma'am, is it true that you lost your virginity at the age of 14? | |
| Is that true? | |
| Is that true? | |
| Is it true that you lost your virginity at the age of 14, but you lied to your husband and said you were a virgin when you married him? | |
| Is that true? | |
| Ma'am, did you suffer postpartum depression after your last child? | |
| There are reports of severe postpartum depression. | |
| Is that true? | |
| Ma'am, we need an answer. | |
| You're under oath, ma'am. | |
| Sir, there are reports that your wife caught you watching internet pornography back in 2007. | |
| Is that true, sir? | |
| You're under oath. | |
| Sir, we need an answer to that question. | |
| Ma'am, are these reports correct that you have irritable bowel syndrome and you have to defecate five times a day? | |
| Ma'am, you are under oath. | |
| We need an answer. | |
| Ma'am? | |
| The country deserves to know. | |
| Sir, is it true that you had a homosexual experience in college? | |
| There are several reports of this, sir. | |
| We're going to need an answer to that. | |
| Sir, your homosexual experience. | |
| Did it happen? | |
| Ma'am, is it true that you have a body odor problem? | |
| Ma'am, is it true that you once went three days without brushing your teeth? | |
| That's the reports that we're hearing. | |
| Ma'am, you are under oath. | |
| I remind you again. | |
| Answer the question. | |
| And on and on and on. | |
| Okay? | |
| Are we prepared to say that the only people qualified for the Supreme Court are those who are willing to be interrogated with questions like those, and who will answer them honestly, even though they have absolutely no bearing on anything, and they're only being asked in order to paint a negative portrait of the nominee, and to humiliate them? | |
| Are we prepared for that? | |
| So all these people saying, well, perjury is perjury. | |
| All perjury is the same. | |
| Really? | |
| Is it? | |
| I mean, is it honestly, though? | |
| Is it all exactly the same? | |
| Look, it's too bad if Kavanaugh lied about boofing under oath when he was asked about it by people who were trying to paint him as a rapist. | |
| I think his better course would have been just to refuse to answer those questions completely. | |
| That would have been, you know, if it was a lie, I mean, the better course would have been to not answer them. | |
| Both the more honest course, but also just the more, I think, just the more effective course is just to say, I'm not going to answer those stupid, ridiculous questions, and you should be ashamed and embarrassed for asking me them. | |
| You vulture. | |
| That's what he should have said. | |
| But if backed into a corner, he said, you know, flatulence, I mean, you know, it's like not the same thing, but kind of related. | |
| Then, you know, that's very naughty of him. | |
| He should apologize to God. | |
| But disqualifying? | |
| Come on. | |
| I mean, seriously? | |
| A guy who has, by all accounts, is a very competent and honest judge in that situation, if he was not totally honest about boofing in front of the Senate, he's disqualified. | |
| I really want you to think about that, if that's the position that you're taking. | |
| I really want you to think, if that really makes sense to you, okay? | |
| Come on. | |
| I just... | |
| I'm not saying we become moral relativists or we become ends-justify-the-means kinds of people, but we gotta. | |
| Like, we can't. | |
| The Democrats and liberals are playing a game, and we have to stop so willingly going along with it. | |
| Right? | |
| I mean... But we'll see what the FBI turns up. | |
| Maybe they will follow the boofing trail to its conclusion, and then, you know, And that's what this will become all about. | |
| Who knows? | |
| Alright, have a great day everybody. | |
| Talk to you tomorrow. |
