[00:00:29] We've got 30 subpoenas that are going out. [00:00:32] Woo, they're hitting everyone in the deep state. [00:00:34] And Brennan is on the list. [00:00:36] That would be the former head of the CIA. [00:00:39] Oh, yeah, this thing runs deep, really deep. [00:00:43] Meanwhile, the views totally live it, like Sonny Houston, like can't keep herself together. [00:00:48] Whooping Goldberg, the governor, part of the seams, because the Democrats decided to actually move forward and reopen the government alongside the Republicans. [00:00:55] Oh, my gosh, you'd think they'd committed some kind of felony. [00:00:59] Well, they got fettered today by none other than John Fetterman. [00:01:03] I'm going to show you the clip. [00:01:04] And oh, gosh, the Chicago mayor, Mayor Brandon Johnson, he's out there. [00:01:09] in front of the UN of all places, dissing the President of the United States. [00:01:13] How is this appropriate? [00:01:14] It seems like he's itching for something, right? [00:01:18] My goodness. [00:01:19] Welcome to the program, everyone. [00:01:20] Good to have you here. [00:01:20] I am Trish Regan. [00:01:21] It's the Trish Regan Show. [00:01:22] Do me a favor. [00:01:23] Make sure you subscribe, share, like, make a comment, all that good stuff. [00:01:26] It's really helpful as we move forward. [00:01:28] Upwards of a million subs right now. [00:01:30] Pretty amazing stuff. [00:01:31] I'll tell you, this is also pretty amazing because we're seeing a lot of action on this front. [00:01:35] The DOJ now issuing around 30 subpoenas with more on the way. [00:01:39] Okay, more on the way. [00:01:41] The intel community that surrounded Barack Obama, they are definitely being targeted. [00:01:46] You've got Lisa Strzok Page. [00:01:50] Peter Page was Peter Strzok and Lisa Page. [00:01:52] Yeah, forgive me. [00:01:53] They're kind of inverted. [00:01:55] They were kind of together, too. [00:01:57] Anyway, those two getting hit along with others. [00:02:01] Here's CNN reporting on the news. [00:02:03] I want to bring you this first. [00:02:05] News Justice Department prosecutors have just issued a subpoena to former National Intelligence Director James Clapper, a longtime target of President Trump's, and former FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page have also received subpoenas. [00:02:17] Sources telling CNN tonight the prosecutors are now moving to subpoena the former CIA director, John Brennan. [00:02:24] Caitlin Polans breaking so much of this. [00:02:25] Caitlin, what do you know about these subpoenas? [00:02:28] Well, Aaron, we know that this action from the Justice Department, it's not done yet. [00:02:32] Subpoenas have gone out to people, including Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, you remember their names from the FBI investigation in 2016, 2017. [00:02:43] And then intelligence chiefs were either getting subpoenas or expecting to get subpoenas in the coming days. [00:02:49] The former CIA director, John Brennan, the former director of national intelligence, James Clapper. [00:02:54] But sources are telling Evan Perez and I that it is dozens of subpoenas that are going out to people in the intelligence world from 2017. [00:03:03] That all of these subpoenas are coming from investigators based in the Southern District of Florida. [00:03:08] So that's where Mar-a-Lago is. [00:03:10] But the connections are a little bit more tenuous to this investigation in 2016. [00:03:16] That would be Crestfire Hurricane. [00:03:17] That's what it was called within the FBI. [00:03:19] And the other thing that we know based on our sources is. [00:03:21] What these subpoenas are asking for is that investigators want people, these former officials, intelligence officials in the federal government, to turn over documents from a pretty narrow window of time, July 2016 to February 2017. [00:03:37] Things like their text messages, their emails, their computer files, everything related to an intelligence community assessment report that was produced in 2017 that summed up essentially the basis. [00:03:51] For investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election as well as the Trump campaign. [00:03:57] It's something Donald Trump has wanted to see looked into again. [00:04:00] Right, absolutely. [00:04:01] Course, you know, we'll note there was a bipartisan, uh, you know, congressional, fully bipartisan right there. [00:04:07] Unbelievable. [00:04:08] Meanwhile, you have the president of the United States putting out on his social media accounts this morning that, in fact, it's not just that team, but actually Hillary Clinton that's in jeopardy as well. [00:04:21] I'm going to bring that to you, guys. [00:04:23] This is this is huge, okay? [00:04:26] Because, like, we knew about a lot of this stuff, we've talked about a lot of this stuff. [00:04:30] Did we ever think that we would actually see this come to fruition, that we would really start to see? [00:04:34] A real investigation that wasn't being operated by the likes of Deep State or people that were close to Deep State. [00:04:40] We didn't, right? [00:04:41] But now you got Bondino in there. [00:04:42] You got Kash Patel in there. [00:04:44] And you got Pam Bondi in there. [00:04:46] And things are happening. [00:04:48] Take a look. [00:04:50] I think John Brennan and the FBI love birds, Dita Strock and Lisa Page, Jim Comey, James Clapper, the whole lot of them, the whole lot of Russia hoaxes, thought that they'd gotten away with it. [00:05:04] There was no way that they thought that Donald Trump would, A, survive. [00:05:08] You know, the impeachment, the lies, the portraying him as a Russian puppet, a Russian stooge of Vladimir Putin. [00:05:18] And then, of course, the 2020 election when they buried all the bad evidence about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden from the laptop and they wrote that or signed that dirty 51 letter, John Brennan again, right in the thick of things. [00:05:31] They thought that they had just dispatched Donald Trump to probably to jail or certainly to ignominy, certainly not. [00:05:40] To become president again, and it's just their worst nightmares, and I think they probably thought that Donald Trump and his administration would be distracted and not worry about going back to the past and maybe show mercy, like Trump did in his first term, to Hillary Clinton. [00:05:59] But no such thing. [00:06:00] And it's not about retribution, even though Donald Trump did say to his supporters before the 2024 election, I am your retribution. [00:06:10] That's very satisfying, but it's more than that. [00:06:13] It is really about deterrence. [00:06:15] It's about making sure that never again will a CIA director, an FBI director, an NSA director or any of these institutions be weaponized against a sitting president and against a candidate for office and we. [00:06:33] That's actually really important, and that was Miranda Divine from the NEW YORK POST, don't forget. [00:06:38] The NEW YORK POST was one of the publications that saw its Twitter account shut down because they had done the initial reporting on the Hunter Biden laptop, reporting that it in fact, was Hunter Biden's laptop. [00:06:49] By the way, it was being investigated by the FBI at the time, and yet you had the likes of Brennan, for example, and a whole bunch of other people, right? [00:06:56] The guy who eventually became Secretary of State, apparently, this was his brainchild. [00:07:00] They decided to put it in Politico, a whole like public statement, right? [00:07:05] On the Hunter Biden emails, and you had 51 ex spooks signing off on all of this, including Mike Morrell, the then deputy director of the CIA. [00:07:14] I mean, it's really pretty just remarkable what went down, and to think that the intelligence community was in on all of this. [00:07:21] All of it pretty awful. [00:07:22] James Clapper as well, Mike Hayden, Liam Panetta, John Brennan. [00:07:26] John Brennan, who's probably gonna get his subpoena any day now. [00:07:32] John Brennan, yeah, this is the guy who said when referring to this statement that they were never calling it disinformation. [00:07:41] He's like turning into Clinton now, he's turning into Bill Clinton. [00:07:43] Remember when Bill Clinton's like, I did not have, you know, well, we're not going to go there. [00:07:50] Okay. [00:07:50] We're just going to keep it clean. [00:07:52] All right. [00:07:53] We're not going to go there. [00:07:53] You know, when semantics became a big, big deal. [00:07:57] Well, in this particular case, yet again, you got Brennan trying to argue that semantics matter. [00:08:02] He said, we never said it was disinformation, despite the fact that the publication that they chose to run this entire letter, which was Politico, which was getting USAID money, funny enough, for all their little Politico subscriptions for like 10 grand a year. [00:08:16] Are you kidding me? [00:08:18] I mean, I can understand a Bloomberg terminal, but a Politico subscription, no way. [00:08:22] That was kind of, you know, funny money, funny money, as I like to say. [00:08:25] Anyway, more than 50 former Intel officials signing a letter casting down on the New York Post story about the former president's vice president's son. [00:08:35] And they were calling it right there in the headline, Russian disinformation. [00:08:38] And yet, look at the tizzy this little guy went into. [00:08:41] And boy, he sort of looks like a little guy when you see him going, you know, trying to get in a fist fight with somebody who said, why'd you call it disinformation? [00:08:52] He's like, no, it was an influence campaign. [00:08:54] It wasn't disinformation. [00:08:55] Again, I cite the headline in the publication they chose to run it in. [00:08:58] Here we go. [00:08:59] You're going to listen up. [00:09:03] Just looked at it. [00:09:04] And you misrepresented that. [00:09:06] We never said it was disinformation. [00:09:11] We said it was Russian influence operations, which is what they do. [00:09:14] There's a big difference between influence operations and real things. [00:09:16] No, you don't know that. [00:09:16] You only knew. [00:09:16] The literature said you had all the information. [00:09:21] Oh, my gosh. [00:09:21] All right. [00:09:21] So, Brennan now is in hot water. [00:09:22] It was disinformation. [00:09:24] According to the title, but he wants to say, no, no, no, it was an influence campaign. [00:09:27] I don't care. [00:09:28] What were you guys doing? [00:09:29] You were trying to put an entire side out of business. [00:09:32] We know damn well what you were doing. [00:09:34] Oh, just ask Lisa and Peter, the lovebirds, right? [00:09:39] Well, he's not going to win, is he? [00:09:41] Oh, we won't let him. [00:09:42] Oops, I'm going back four years. [00:09:44] I mean, because it just kept happening over and over and over again. [00:09:46] It happened in 2016, then it happened in 2020, and now it's happening again. [00:09:51] Thank you for the generosity. [00:09:53] I'm seeing lots of, uh, Super chats here in the show today. [00:09:58] I know because this is important and I think everybody's hungry for this information. [00:10:01] I get it. [00:10:01] Like some people feel frustrated, like it's not going to happen. [00:10:04] I am just going to say, like, look, I trust Dan. [00:10:07] I don't know Cash as well, but I've known Dan a lot of years. [00:10:11] We worked together at Fox and I know that he's there for a reason. [00:10:15] You guys are getting into the Clinton stuff. [00:10:20] All right. [00:10:20] I'm not going to go there, but you know what I mean. [00:10:23] You know what I mean, Cat Crazy. [00:10:24] Good to see you in the room, Leslie as well. [00:10:26] And of course, piece of my mind. [00:10:28] I love how you're saying, yes, yes, yes. [00:10:30] It wasn't disinformation. [00:10:31] It was intelligence, aka bad, bad intelligence, right? [00:10:39] Brennan was the guy, don't forget, who said, oh, I don't do, I don't do evidence. [00:10:44] I do intelligence because, you know, intelligence apparently is implying a whole different thing because you can massage or manipulate it however you want. [00:10:53] Yeah. [00:10:53] The guy's a super spy who's a political hack. [00:10:58] That's who's running your CIA, a political hack? [00:11:00] I mean, so when Miranda said earlier, like, this can't happen again, she wasn't kidding. [00:11:05] Like this isn't about just retribution. [00:11:09] I mean, maybe there's a little tiny bit of retribution in there, but what this is really about, and if you were to push the president on this, it's about making sure that this doesn't happen again because it shouldn't happen to anyone. [00:11:22] It's not right. [00:11:22] It's not fair. [00:11:23] For goodness sakes, the likes of Letitia James, the lovely, lovely, I'm being facetious, Letitia James trying to bankrupt him, the likes of Fannie Willis, who had her own indiscretion, shall we say, Nathan Wade. [00:11:38] Paying the boyfriend, right? [00:11:41] With taxpayer dollars. [00:11:42] Don't you love how these Dems work? [00:11:44] Trying to go after him, getting the mugshot of him. [00:11:46] You had Alvin Bragg. [00:11:47] You had Jack Smith, for goodness sakes. [00:11:49] We got to get into that. [00:11:50] I mean, a whole bunch of Keystone cops. [00:11:55] Who's on first? [00:11:56] Running around trying to get Donald Trump. [00:11:57] Believe me, if they had anything, they would have gotten it. [00:12:00] And yet they kept coming up empty handed and they don't like him. [00:12:03] Why? [00:12:04] Because he's not one of them. [00:12:05] He's an outsider. [00:12:05] He's trying to do things a different way. [00:12:09] Use financial influence, for example, instead of guns. [00:12:14] You know, lose or gain dollars in some cases. [00:12:17] Wait till you see the expose on MSNBC this morning. [00:12:20] The Treasury Secretary took the anchor down. [00:12:22] I just loved it because these stupid anchors know nothing about finance. [00:12:25] And I say that as someone who does know something about finance, who started her career in finance, who actually was trading emerging debt markets, sovereign debt at Goldman Sachs. [00:12:34] So when I find stupid anchors trying to talk about the economy, it gets my Irish up. [00:12:39] What can I say? [00:12:41] Meanwhile, some of these stupid anchors, they're all on MSNBC and CNN. [00:12:45] They're all in the mainstream media. [00:12:46] What can I say? [00:12:47] Anybody who's got talent is out on their own. [00:12:49] Take a look at this guy talking about how it's coming for John Brennan. [00:12:52] John Brennan, heck, he's one of them. [00:12:54] He's an MSNBC contributor because who doesn't grow up to want to be the head of the CIA and then become an MSNBC contributor? [00:13:03] Well, so John Brennan is one of the key figures in what really is a massive and sprawling investigation as envisioned down in South Florida. [00:13:12] And the reason it's down there, and that's new, that's We're reporting today that the U.S. Attorney in South Florida is leading this investigation is because that's where the Mar-a-Lago search was. [00:13:20] And so what they're trying to do here is knit together, um, what they see as a, an ongoing conspiracy to violate Donald Trump's civil rights that began with the Russia investigation and continued on from Obama administration to Biden administration and then somehow includes the Jack Smith investigations. [00:13:37] It's his unified, unified field theory of persecuting Donald Trump. [00:13:42] Uh, and John Brennan, of course, was a central figure in the preparation of that 2017 assessment into Russian election interference. [00:13:49] And of course, the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation figured into that. [00:13:53] How this all shakes out, Katie, is anyone's guess because we've not seen any evidence connecting any of these things, let alone any wrongdoing. [00:14:00] And in point of fact, as you well know, John Durham, the special. [00:14:04] This is always what they go back to. [00:14:05] In fact, when you look at their reporting on this over and over and over again, they keep telling you, well, we've never seen this. [00:14:10] We don't see that. [00:14:11] It's not possible. [00:14:13] It's just, oh, it's just Tulsi. [00:14:15] I mean, listen to Brennan himself. [00:14:17] He's like, Tulsi, she's just. [00:14:19] You know, she's just off a rocker trying to promote a bunch of disinformation, misinformation, for goodness sakes. [00:14:24] You know what they said about Tulsi? === Mapping the MAGA Movement (10:09) === [00:14:26] Think about this. [00:14:27] She was a real threat to Hillary Clinton's campaign. [00:14:29] So what did they call her? [00:14:31] A Russian spy. [00:14:32] I mean, like it all goes back. [00:14:33] I mean, when in doubt, go back to Russian spy. [00:14:35] That'll work for you. [00:14:36] Yeah, that's what they called Tulsi. [00:14:38] I'm sure there's no love lost between one Tulsi Gabbard and John Brennan. [00:14:44] Too bad for him. [00:14:45] She's in charge now. [00:14:47] She's now head of DNI. [00:14:50] Watch. [00:14:50] Tulsi Gabbard, you know, she may be impaired on the ethics front, certainly, but she's not impaired on the intellect front. [00:14:57] And so I can only presume that she is doing this intentionally, intentionally mischaracterizing, misrepresenting, and lying about what she has found. [00:15:07] Who? [00:15:08] I mean, kind of like what you guys did? [00:15:12] I mean, you didn't even mischaracterize, you didn't find anything. [00:15:17] Let's go back to the Russian dossier that wasn't, right? [00:15:20] The whole made up. [00:15:21] Thing bought and paid for courtesy of Hillary Clinton's campaign. [00:15:25] You see, she laundered it through her law firm, who laundered it through Fusion GPS, who laundered it through Christopher Steele, who went out and hired people who, by the way, our own FBI suspected of legitimately being Russian spies. [00:15:38] How's that for full circle? [00:15:41] I mean, these people are unbelievable. [00:15:43] They literally made things up, and then you're supposed to roll over and play dead? [00:15:49] I mean, Donald Trump was Mr. Nice Guy going in last time around. [00:15:52] It is a whole different ballgame, as my friend Dan has explained. [00:15:58] They are out for blood. [00:16:00] They are gonna find everyone, 30 subpoenas and still counting going out, indictments for Comey, indictments for Bolton, more indictments expected for the likes of Brennan. [00:16:11] I'm telling you, a lot of people are going down because in this new world, your influence, the influence you may have had in the past, it no longer matters. [00:16:22] Listen to Dan. [00:16:23] A couple months ago on my former employer FOX, Let me ask you about, are you going to be looking into, Cash and Pam, any potential collusion between the DOJ, Letitia James? [00:16:37] the novel legal theory of Alvin Bragg or Nathan Wade or Fonnie Willis and the DOJ? [00:16:43] Is that something? [00:16:45] Has anything come up? [00:16:47] Is there any way to determine whether or not evidence was destroyed in any of these cases? [00:16:54] Well, there's always a way to determine that. [00:16:55] I don't want to comment on that specific case right now for a reason. [00:17:00] I don't want to get ahead of the Department of Justice on that. [00:17:03] But I want to say this the FBI obviously has the public corruption portfolio. [00:17:09] And yes, if you are a corrupt politician out there, if you are engaged in behavior, you know what you're doing. [00:17:17] Uh, we're gonna find you, I promise. [00:17:19] No one is going to get off the days of selecting and putting your you know partisan bias on and taking care of your friends. [00:17:26] Those days are over. [00:17:27] You know what, Sean? [00:17:28] I don't have any friends, I don't want any friends. [00:17:30] Well, maybe outside of you and a couple of I don't care. [00:17:33] You know, it's important what he's saying there because don't forget, don't forget, one of Comey's friends happened to be his own son in law who was working in the Virginia U.S. Attorney's Office. [00:17:47] Think about that, the U.S. Attorney. [00:17:49] Who had already, you know, they had put forward subpoenas. [00:17:53] They were investigating Comey and then his own son-in-law who's hearing about all this? [00:17:58] Right, they got rid of the first guy. [00:18:00] That's why they put Lindsay in there, Lindsay Halligan, because the first guy wasn't willing to do anything. [00:18:04] Why, I guess because of his friends, as Dan said. [00:18:08] You know friendships, they no longer matter. [00:18:10] We're not going to just protect our own in this environment. [00:18:12] We're going to actually come out and see what really really went down and, as you, you look at everything. [00:18:18] Guys, it's really very, very concerning. [00:18:20] You heard me mention Comey. [00:18:22] You know We just got word recently, last week, thanks to Lindsay's investigation and Lindsay's information that she put forward before the court in this indictment Case. [00:18:32] I mean, he had effectively written about a zillion notes here. [00:18:37] I mean, here's a handwritten note that's on FBI stationery. [00:18:40] And Comey's talking about, you know, taking everyone down, about, you know, how, you know, that Kerry was going to be in charge of talking about Trump's finances and debts to Moscow. [00:18:50] He didn't have any. [00:18:51] Deutsche Bank. [00:18:53] out of Germany was his banker, but they were trying to do all these crazy ties because they felt like if they could feed the media narrative that that would be sufficient. [00:19:02] And don't forget, James Comey himself. [00:19:06] He actually was out there peddling this information to his buddy who was at Columbia Law School, who actually was on the payroll of the FBI. [00:19:14] I love this. [00:19:15] His name was Reinhold Neuberg 7. [00:19:19] That was James Comey's pseudonym. [00:19:22] It's just sort of funny. [00:19:25] Who chooses a pseudonym like that? [00:19:28] Reinhold. [00:19:29] So Reinhold is talking to his friend Dan. [00:19:33] At Columbia Law School, and like Dan's offering to give him a boost, right? [00:19:39] To boost his credibility. [00:19:41] And he writes back, Reinhold, that is no need at this point. [00:19:44] It would be shouting into the wind. [00:19:46] Someday they will figure it out. [00:19:49] And as Jack and Ben point out, my decision will be one a president elect Clinton will be grateful for, although that wasn't why I did it. [00:19:59] Okay, so he was, you know, I'm just saying she's going to be grateful for it. [00:20:03] She's going to be, all of this is coming out. [00:20:05] So these are all in the exhibits. [00:20:07] They even have. [00:20:08] Cell phone messages where he's talking about making sure that some of his people at the FBI leak certain things to members of the media. [00:20:17] And this is despite the fact that he himself said he never did such a thing, right? [00:20:21] You remember this. [00:20:21] I actually did it in my shorts feed. [00:20:23] Wow. [00:20:24] There's this little thing called tape. [00:20:25] Director Comey, have you ever been an anonymous source in news reports about matters relating to the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation? [00:20:37] Never. [00:20:38] Have you ever authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports about the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation? [00:20:48] No. [00:20:49] I needed to get that out into the public square. [00:20:52] And so I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter. [00:20:57] Didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons, but I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel. [00:21:03] And there we have it. [00:21:04] Yeah, there you have it. [00:21:05] I mean, so handwritten notes. [00:21:07] She's bringing receipts right now. [00:21:09] And I would just say this really doesn't look good. [00:21:11] It doesn't look good for Comey. [00:21:13] It doesn't look good for the Obama intel operation. [00:21:17] Meanwhile, I mean, it doesn't end there, right? [00:21:20] I mean, you think about what Jack Frost, Jack Frost, Arctic Frost, and Jack Smith picked up. [00:21:26] The mantle continued. [00:21:27] I mean, they just fired an agent like last week. [00:21:30] Kash Patel forced out one of the special agents at the FBI who apparently was in charge of. part of this investigation, this would have come on the heels of this guy, Timothy T. Bolt, who originally started the investigation, Arctic Frost. [00:21:41] And by the way, he did this without the proper permission. [00:21:44] He did this by signing off. [00:21:46] I mean, all the metadata, according to Grassley, shows that this guy, T. Bolt, initiated this investigation into, oh, the metadata of senators' cell phones. [00:21:58] They were trying to map out the MAGA movement. [00:21:59] It's unbelievable, right? [00:22:01] And he's the guy, T. Bolt, who started it. [00:22:04] according to Grassley, and then he completely ignored this thing called the no self-approval rule because he approved his own investigation. [00:22:12] Here it is, FBI's no self-approval rule, Section 3523, the FBI's Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide, say that you can't actually do that. [00:22:21] An official who approves an investigation action, especially opening or closing a kiss, may not approve their own work. [00:22:27] Instead, you need an independent review, but they didn't have any independent review. [00:22:32] No, no, no, you see, because they were on a mission. [00:22:33] They had to get Trump. [00:22:34] no matter what. [00:22:35] And so now it looks like Jack Smith, he's in for a lot of trouble. [00:22:43] The president putting this out recently, along with a whole bunch of other people that he names, calling them a sinister group because it was this J6 witch hunt. [00:22:53] I mean, we saw the BBC's editing of that tape, right? [00:22:57] They were doing that actually as recently as this last round in the election because they were once again, I think, trying to infect people with TDS. [00:23:06] But they wanted to stop this. [00:23:07] And and Grassley is exposing it all. [00:23:10] Take a look as he tells us exactly what went down with Arctic Frost and the metadata, the tapping of the phones. [00:23:17] Oops, I can't say that. [00:23:18] I can't say that it's not wiretapping, it's called logging. [00:23:21] You log the phone data because you figure out who's talking to who, for how long, where they're talking to them from, and then you keep piecing it together in one big giant tree branch to figure out who's associated with MAGA. [00:23:35] It's illegal. [00:23:38] I've recently been informed by Verizon that at least 11 members with Verizon accounts were affected. [00:23:46] That includes a hard line for Senator Cruz's office and a staffer cell phone for former Senator Leffler. [00:23:58] AT&T informed me they challenged the legal basis for Jack Smith's efforts and Smith backed down. [00:24:10] Huh. [00:24:11] Well, good for AT&T, right? [00:24:12] Good for AT&T. [00:24:13] As Senator Kenney has said, you know, some of these phone companies needed to grow a pair or maybe buy one on Amazon because they were folding and they shouldn't have because sure, okay, you need like some kind of lawful order for this, but you could fight the subpoena. [00:24:30] You could see, gee, this is kind of weird because you're trying to go after an actual sitting U.S. Senator, including Ted Cruz. === Arctic Frost as Watergate (04:49) === [00:24:36] Do you think he appreciated this? [00:24:37] No. [00:24:39] Arctic Frost is Joe Biden's Watergate. [00:24:43] Merrick Garland was a fundamentally corrupt attorney general. [00:24:48] Jack Smith was a fundamentally corrupt prosecutor. [00:24:53] This was a political enemies list from the beginning. [00:24:59] 197 subpoenas for 430 Republican entities and individuals. [00:25:10] That is an absolute and egregious abuse of power. [00:25:15] Yeah, you better believe. [00:25:17] And here's Trump saying, Mag and Never Forget, or it will happen again. [00:25:21] I mean, I hear him, right? [00:25:22] I saw the sound I actually played in my shorts feed just this week of Bannon actually saying, Listen, like, you know, this is serious. [00:25:33] If we don't actually win in the next go around, there are going to be some people that are going to be going to jail. [00:25:40] Bannon said, myself included. [00:25:42] I mean, he's not joking because what's going to happen is they're going to try to go after this president yet again. [00:25:49] And it's sickening, but it is what it is. [00:25:53] And so, if you don't actually get this thing off and running and they don't have a lot of time, right? [00:25:57] You got to move. [00:25:58] Time is of the essence. [00:25:59] And I hear some of you guys, you're worried. [00:26:01] You're worried about time. [00:26:02] You're worried nothing's going to happen. [00:26:03] I think something will. [00:26:04] I actually have a little bit of faith in these guys. [00:26:07] Meanwhile, there's a new report out today from Just the News that CGI's in hot water. [00:26:12] It makes sense, right? [00:26:13] Because I've never really understood how you could be head of the State Department while simultaneously your hubby's over there collecting all this money for your charitable organization, according to Just the News. [00:26:24] Clinton corruption files is the new thing that they're looking into. [00:26:27] Bondi, Kash Patel have been unleashing new evidence about the former First Lady's family foundation. [00:26:34] This is something that was reported on, don't forget, in a big book, maybe books one and two, Clinton Cash. [00:26:42] And what it looked at was sort of this relationship between some of these countries, in many cases very dubious countries that were donating to the Clinton Foundation. [00:26:51] The question becomes, was this an influence operation? [00:26:55] In other words, Bills out there saying, hey, hey, you know, come on in, come one, come all, all while Hillary Clinton is the Secretary of State for Barack Obama. [00:27:06] Is that not messed up? [00:27:07] I always said it at the time. [00:27:08] I remember being at a couple CGI events. [00:27:10] One was the big international one in New York, and it was like, you know, all these billionaires from weird countries in Africa that suddenly were getting legitimized by the likes of President Bill Clinton. [00:27:22] Because, you know, you fork over a donation, you get your picture with him, and, uh, suddenly everything's a-okay. [00:27:29] It was weird to me and I remember thinking gosh, you know, his wife is head of our State Department like, isn't this a little bit of a conflict of interest? [00:27:38] You think apparently Obama wasn't happy about it? [00:27:41] He clearly was not happy about it, but look what was going on. [00:27:44] I mean, his vice president had his son getting a gig on a Ukrainian energy company sketchy energy company that it was, it's now defunct Barisma Energy to the tune of six hundred thousand dollars a year. [00:27:58] Like that. [00:27:58] Stuff doesn't happen, you guys. [00:28:00] You don't get a board job for six hundred thousand dollars a year. [00:28:02] It's totally insane and totally wild. [00:28:05] But they were trying to influence policy there in Ukraine, including perhaps who was the prosecutor that was investigating them. [00:28:12] Because don't forget, Joe Biden so proudly made sure that the Ukrainians fired the prosecutor that was investigating Burisma for all its corruption. [00:28:23] By the way, it needed to be investigated because it was corrupt and it is now defunct. [00:28:28] And yet the son of the vice president is making 600K off the deal, not to mention the money he's making in Romania and China and all these other places. [00:28:36] I mean, it's wild. [00:28:36] All while Hillary Clinton is apparently cashing in with money from all kinds of people, Bill just says, hey, hey, put it here. [00:28:45] She's then running State Department. [00:28:47] So now what they've got to find in order to tie this one together, I mean, obviously it's super sus, as the kids would say, super duper sus. [00:28:56] But what you've got to find is the proof. [00:28:58] Like, can you actually say that this was a quid pro quo, that somebody has an email somewhere in which so-and-so says, hey, you know, we really need this done. [00:29:10] And by the way, we're giving you a check for this amount and then suddenly this gets done. [00:29:15] That's the question there and that's what they're going to have to answer. [00:29:17] But apparently they have found some new evidence that suggests the family's foundation was not entirely on the up and up. === Democrats Lose Momentum (12:02) === [00:29:25] Again, I could have told you that. [00:29:27] And Peter, is it Peter Schweitzer that wrote the book, Clinton Cash? [00:29:31] I mean, I think there's like two installments of the book because there's that much information. [00:29:35] Yeah, I mean, it was pretty obvious, I think, to anybody who could see things. [00:29:39] And it's astonishing that they allowed that to go on. [00:29:42] Truly, truly astonishing. [00:29:44] You know, the shutdown, astonishingly, is finally coming to an end, as long as shutdown in history, because you had a bunch of Democrats that were just kicking and screaming and they weren't willing to do anything ahead of the elections. [00:29:57] Well, some of them are still kicking and screaming in the Democrat Party. [00:30:02] Boy, oh boy, are they mad. [00:30:03] They're mad as H-E-L-L because they can't believe the Democrats would give in, despite the fact that, hey, I don't know, 46 million people are going to lose their SNAP benefits. [00:30:12] You have the military not getting paid. [00:30:15] You get the FAA. [00:30:16] You know, not all the workers there at a time when you're going into the holiday season. [00:30:19] I mean, it seems like you'd want to have the government back up and running, but not if you are one Miss Sonny Houston over at The View. [00:30:26] The funny thing is, we talked about this yesterday. [00:30:28] She was flipping out, freaking out. [00:30:30] I mean, hyperventilating. [00:30:31] Oh, my gosh. [00:30:33] I can't believe the Democrats did this. [00:30:34] Well, now she brought John Fetterman on, and let's just say he's completely unfettered. [00:30:40] Her, not so much. [00:30:41] I want you guys to see John Fetterman taking down one of The View ladies. [00:30:44] Not hard to do, but nonetheless, it's good, as they say, TV. [00:30:49] It was a horrific mistake. [00:30:52] Governor Gavin Newsom called it pathetic and a surrender. [00:30:55] Poll after poll found more Americans on both sides of the aisle blaming Republicans. [00:31:00] Even Marjorie Taylor Greene blamed the GOP. [00:31:03] As you mentioned, Democrats had big wins last week, so you had momentum. [00:31:08] Why give in now? [00:31:09] Why bring a butter knife to a gunfight? [00:31:12] Are you willing to gamble that the GOP will negotiate on health care in good faith once the government reopens? [00:31:20] Because if that gamble is wrong, Half a million Pennsylvanians that you represent, their health care costs will skyrocket if you are wrong. [00:31:28] And I believe you are wrong. [00:31:32] Well, first of all, you know, MTG is quite literally the last person in America that I'm going to take advice or to get their kinds of my leadership and values from. [00:31:42] And now if Democrats are celebrating crazy pants like that, then that's on them. [00:31:46] And I don't need a lecture from whether it's Bernie or the governor in California because they are representing very deep blue kinds of populations. [00:31:59] And a lot of those things. [00:32:01] A lot of those things were part of the extreme. [00:32:04] And now remember what really needs to win, to win the big win is involving my state and other states in those things. [00:32:12] And why have we arrived here after the election a year ago? [00:32:17] We want to forget. [00:32:18] We got to forget some of the things that cost us that election or now for me. [00:32:22] It's like that's why I'm trying to remind people that kinds of the extreme extremism, we can't return to those kind of things and realize we need to find a way forward. [00:32:32] And I would like to rather than cite MTG, I'm going to cite one of the new governor-elects saying that my election is not a green light to continue this shutdown because I promise you this isn't a political game. [00:32:46] It is viewed by that by many of us. [00:32:48] But the reality is 42 million Americans now not sure where their next meal is going to come from. [00:32:54] And because we vote like that, vote like that, or people that haven't been paid for five weeks now and that kinds of chaos, those workers borrow more than half a billion dollars from their credit union just to. [00:33:06] Pay their bills now. [00:33:07] So so for me we're in the middle of this senator, I gotta ask you to hold up a. [00:33:12] Oh okay, I get, I gotta, I gotta. [00:33:14] Run to a commercial says whoopee, you know just when, just when he really is getting ready for the takedown, but he's, you know the. [00:33:21] The advantage that he has um, is that he gets it, and I don't agree with him on everything, but he understands what the blue collar workers in Pennsylvania are up against, and I kind of look at him increasingly and wonder how he's going to continue to thrive as a Democrat, because the Democrat Party today that we're. [00:33:43] Seeing is very, very different from, say, the Fettermans of the world. [00:33:46] I mean, you compare and contrast Gavin Newsom, say, or Mamdami, which on Fetterman, you're going to get two very, very different approaches, which is something that he, in fact, acknowledges. [00:33:55] But you've got the media on the side of the Mamdamis, on the side of the Bernie Sanders, on the side of the communists, AOC, and Gavin Newsom out there in California. [00:34:06] And it's becoming increasingly tricky, right, to be a moderate Democrat. [00:34:11] You look at Jean Shaheen in New Hampshire, who had to vote for ending this shutdown. [00:34:18] And she's taken all kinds of heat from these Dems that are like, how dare you? [00:34:21] How dare you? [00:34:22] And it's like, wait a second, are you guys losing sight of everything? [00:34:24] Like, I know, Sonny, you know, you're not. [00:34:27] Whoopi, you guys aren't hurting for your next meal. [00:34:30] But people that are on SNAP, you know, it's a different thing. [00:34:34] And so the Democrats have the power to end that, but they wouldn't choose to use it. [00:34:37] Are you kidding me? [00:34:38] Because they want to be political? [00:34:40] I don't think so. [00:34:41] Listen, they got the power. [00:34:44] You got to deal the hand you're dealt. [00:34:47] And these ladies on The View, I mean, they're just commentators, frankly. [00:34:52] They're not, they don't have real stakes in the game. [00:34:54] So you got to keep taking them with a grain of salt. [00:34:57] But I mean, I'm watching Sonny yesterday, and she's like hyperventilating over this. [00:35:02] She can't stand it. [00:35:02] She can't take it. [00:35:03] Take a peek. [00:35:05] Let's be clear. [00:35:06] The Republicans run the House. [00:35:07] The Republicans run the Senate. [00:35:09] The Republicans run the White House. [00:35:10] The Republicans run the Supreme Court, as far as I'm concerned. [00:35:14] This was a choice by Republicans to cut SNAP benefits. [00:35:20] This was a choice by Republicans to cut ACA subsidies. [00:35:22] This was a choice by the Republicans to gut the federal government and federal employment. [00:35:28] to do with it. [00:35:28] I want an opposition party. [00:35:30] I think the Democrats caved. [00:35:32] I think the Democrats let down the American people. [00:35:37] And like you, whoopee, I have absolutely no faith that the Republican party will come to the negotiating table in, in, in good faith. [00:35:46] You know, you do something like this, shame on you the first time. [00:35:50] You do it twice, three times, four times, shame on me. [00:35:53] Shame on the Democrats for even believing that the, that the Republicans will You know, even losing a vote on it. [00:36:02] There's no guarantee in this new deal that there's going to be a vote. [00:36:04] There's no even commitment to have a vote. [00:36:07] So the bottom line is the Democrats went into this after a blue wave out of the American people saying, we do want the opposition. [00:36:15] The working people want the Democratic Party to fight for them. [00:36:18] And now they just caved and surrendered. [00:36:21] I think Chuck Schumer, his days are over. [00:36:24] I cannot. [00:36:25] And he cannot. [00:36:25] Okay, Chucky, you're losing your biggest base of support there. [00:36:29] I mean, when you've left. [00:36:31] Lost the view. [00:36:31] I don't know. [00:36:32] You basically have left the party. [00:36:34] I think they're sending you out to pasture, which is probably the right thing to do for a variety of reasons. [00:36:40] I mean, I kind of agree with Sonny. [00:36:42] Yeah, Chuck Schumer's out. [00:36:43] But the sad thing is, it's because the party's getting so wacky. [00:36:48] Totally, totally, totally wacky. [00:36:51] Meanwhile, Whoopi was the same way on the show. [00:36:55] Totally entitled. [00:36:56] And by the way, incoherent. [00:36:58] Like, really incoherent. [00:36:59] I have no faith that they're going to negotiate and come back to the table. [00:37:07] And, you know, I'm glad that folks maybe, because again, we have seen you say this is going to happen and then it doesn't happen. [00:37:16] So, surprise me and show me that this is really, that people are going to get their money, that people are going to get the money that they are entitled to. [00:37:25] It's not a gift. [00:37:26] They're entitled to this money during the shutdown. [00:37:31] You're entitled to that money. [00:37:34] Yeah. [00:37:34] Losing her way, losing her way. [00:37:35] And by the way, like, we actually had to perform surgery on that edit. [00:37:38] I'm like, I'm turning into 60 minutes making Whoopi Goldberg sound like she knows what she's talking about. [00:37:45] That's like trying to make Kamala sound like she knows what she's talking about. [00:37:48] I deserve an Emmy for that edit there. [00:37:51] Anyway, she's trying to say, like, look, they're supposed to get these benefits. [00:37:54] It's not right that they're being canceled, et cetera. [00:37:56] And, you know, we need to hold out. [00:37:58] We need to fight. [00:37:59] And da, Look. [00:38:01] The reality is, we have a lot of things that we need to fix as a society. [00:38:06] But the Democrats, over and over and over again, have proven that they have the wrong fix. [00:38:12] They have the wrong way of going about all of these things. [00:38:16] And as a result, you know what? [00:38:17] The country suffered. [00:38:18] Guess what? [00:38:19] It wasn't under Donald Trump that we had 9.6% inflation in consumer prices. [00:38:24] Okay. [00:38:24] That wasn't under Trump. [00:38:26] You think back to the good days of 2019, right? [00:38:28] 2019, when we actually had a head of COVID, we had. [00:38:33] The biggest growth in middle class wages that we had ever seen, you guys. [00:38:39] All right. [00:38:40] Like that's what I'm talking about. [00:38:42] That's what I'm talking about. [00:38:43] And so when these people get out there and they try and claim that they have the recipe and they have the prescription, it's like, guys, you did it. [00:38:51] All right. [00:38:51] You already did it. [00:38:53] Let's just take a look at what happened during the Biden and Kamala Harris years. [00:38:58] Oh, there's a really good soundbite. [00:39:00] I got to show you because Kamala Harris went on some podcast. [00:39:04] And she tried to say that, oh, you know, I really wanted to focus on the economy and this and that. [00:39:10] She's still like, she can't live this down, the fact that she's so badly, terribly lost. [00:39:16] And so she went on, she like started to blame the system and blamed like, oh, you know, I just cared. [00:39:22] I just cared about the economy. [00:39:24] And it was Trump that was trying to play all these funny games and I just wouldn't engage in them. [00:39:30] But she said she wasn't going to play three-dimensional chess. [00:39:34] And I guess the reality is she just got played. [00:39:36] Take a peek. [00:39:39] I was aware of my opponent's strategy, and I wasn't about to fall prey or fall into those traps. [00:39:49] And part of his strategy and those around just remember, she could have been president. [00:39:56] It's a really scary thought was to try and take me off our game and message. [00:40:04] And I wasn't about to be distracted by those little flames that he was trying to throw. [00:40:11] To get me away from my highest priority, which is talking to people about the economy and their well being in terms of their financial well being. [00:40:20] Kamala, it was your economy. [00:40:22] It was you and Joe that drove inflation through the roof with all your insane spending and projects to nowhere. [00:40:30] I mean, this is why we're in a shutdown right now because of the $1.5 billion that Nancy and Chuck decided to add on to healthcare that was temporary and was always set to expire right about now. [00:40:41] It was your policy that led to a bad economy, lady. [00:40:45] And that's so I was, I understood the game that was being played, and I made a decision that I wasn't gonna get played. [00:40:52] Oh, dear. [00:40:53] Oh, dear. [00:40:55] Yeah, three dimensional chess, I'm telling you. [00:40:56] Okay, honey, I'm sorry, but you got played and you got played pretty grandly, okay? [00:41:10] But you just kind of, and I hate to use this word, but you suck at your job. [00:41:12] You're a terrible politician, you're not that bright. [00:41:15] You got a whole problem with the word salad. [00:41:18] You laugh like a hyena. [00:41:19] I mean, I'm just getting started. [00:41:21] If I were a Democrat consultant, I'd be like whipping her into shape in no time. [00:41:25] I'd say, enough with the laugh. === FCC Targets Cable Misinformation (11:21) === [00:41:27] Actually read and understand the economy. [00:41:30] Speak with gravitas and stop trying to be everything to everyone. [00:41:36] Who the heck are you, Kamala Harris? [00:41:37] We don't really know. [00:41:38] Now, do we? [00:41:39] I don't think she knows. [00:41:39] Anyway, I want to just give a shout out to our friends at Americans for Prosperity, one of the sponsors here on the Trish Regan show. [00:41:46] We've told you about them before and all the good work that they did to get. [00:41:49] Trump's tax bill passed and pretty amazing stuff. [00:41:54] Well, that bill may be the law of the land, but AFP is not resting on its laurels. [00:41:58] Americans for Prosperity is now pulling out the stops to get Congress to pass a permitting reform bill with bipartisan support that would speed up all sorts of energy and mining projects. [00:42:08] Kind of important, right? [00:42:09] As we move towards a new economy, energy and mining, I'm telling you, they're going to be critical. [00:42:14] So you want to unlock all the natural resources you can in order to help build America's future. [00:42:19] The grid, the grid, the grid, all the electricity that we're going to need. [00:42:23] Think about it, guys. [00:42:24] We're going to really need to be mining for this stuff. [00:42:27] So creating good paying jobs, making energy more affordable. [00:42:30] I'm telling you, when it comes to fighting for economic freedom, these guys over at AFP, and I'm not just saying that because they help bring you this show for free. [00:42:37] I'm a big believer in what they're doing and they're relentless. [00:42:39] So these days, relentless is really what you need to be. [00:42:42] You can go check them out at Prosperity is Possible. [00:42:45] Very uplifting message there. [00:42:47] ProsperityisPossible.com. [00:42:48] We're talking about the view and what a mess that is. [00:42:52] You look at all the journalism coverage of the shut down, and most of it is pretty darn negative. [00:42:58] And a lot of it is coming from these big three networks. [00:43:00] I mean, our friends over at MRC, I've talked about this before. [00:43:03] They did a big study on this. [00:43:04] They looked at ABC, they looked at CBS, they looked at NBC. [00:43:07] And guess what? [00:43:08] 87% of the time, the coverage favors the Dems. [00:43:12] Surprise, surprise. [00:43:13] I mean, you have only to look at this show, The View, to know that. [00:43:16] But what's fascinating is just last week, we started to see sort of a shift, sort of a change in tone. [00:43:22] Whoopi Goldberg is now under the microscope. [00:43:24] I suspect this is because of some of the work that the FCC is doing and Brandon Carr. [00:43:29] He's issued multiple letters to Disney, which is the parent company of ABC. [00:43:34] And he's made it really clear, guys, you can't be like off the rails here. [00:43:38] You have a charter. [00:43:39] And if you go back to the 1934 Communications Act for the FCC, that charter is to serve the community. [00:43:45] And you're not serving the community when you put all this crapola on television, right? [00:43:51] And it's a lot of crapola. [00:43:53] I mean, they just flat alight to you every other day on that show. [00:43:56] And they never bring anybody that's conservative on the program. [00:43:59] The one time they did, oh gosh, and if you can call them a conservative. [00:44:03] Arnold Schwarzenegger, Joy Behar's jaw was on the floor after he said, Yeah, you know, if you're an immigrant in this country, you're expected to act a certain way, just like you're a guest in someone's home. [00:44:13] They were horrified. [00:44:14] And then they had MTG, but the only reason they had MTG was because she was driving a wedge in the conservative party. [00:44:20] That's why they wanted her. [00:44:21] I mean, when you got Sonny Houston suddenly siding with MTG over Fetterman, that tells you something, does it not? [00:44:28] But I think this is a really telling moment. [00:44:30] So last week, right before they decided to mysteriously cancel Jimmy Kimmel's show, You can look that one up on my channel. [00:44:37] We've done that story. [00:44:38] In fact, I was on the air Saturday with that. [00:44:40] Right before they canceled Jimmy Kimmel's show, and we still don't know what that was about, allegedly for a personal matter, Whoopi Goldberg was scolded by her producers on live television. [00:44:52] And she actually, in her defense, was actually this time making a joke. [00:44:55] Most of the time it's misinformation, but this was just a silly little thing, and they went after her. [00:44:59] Take a peek. [00:45:01] And the other insane thing is that when people are going, To go to their meetings with the judge. [00:45:12] The meetings that they're supposed to go to when they're listening to. [00:45:20] What the hell? [00:45:21] What? [00:45:22] I love when Sonny passes notes. [00:45:24] We don't know if Trump used an autopen to part. [00:45:28] It was a joke! [00:45:29] Yes. [00:45:30] We don't know if Trump used an auto pen. [00:45:32] Come on. [00:45:33] But we do know that he didn't know who that crypto guy was. [00:45:36] Well, I'm sorry. [00:45:37] You know, the hardest thing about this job now is no one understands nuance. [00:45:48] You know when you hear a joke, when somebody's fooling around, when they're not saying something specific, especially on this show. [00:45:56] I'm very specific when I'm pointing stuff out. [00:45:59] When I'm making jokes, you know when I'm making jokes. [00:46:01] This is ridiculous. [00:46:03] Okay, this is ridiculous. [00:46:05] Again, MRC, they're the ones that did that study and they look at a lot of this stuff being one of the first to report on this. [00:46:11] It's not really that ridiculous when you constantly are feeding people misinformation. [00:46:16] So, okay, yeah, I get it. [00:46:18] Like one time you make a funny joke and now you're getting called out for it. [00:46:21] But don't you see when you kind of exhaust your welcome, when you've got the FCC breathing down your company's back, when they've launched an investigation into you and your network and all of Disney? [00:46:34] Whoopi, I think that you're getting kind of costly for the company. [00:46:37] I think the whole show is getting kind of costly for the company. [00:46:39] We've seen it before. [00:46:41] They got rid of, oh, Jim Acosta at CNN. [00:46:44] They got rid of Joy Reid over at MSNBC and a whole bunch of other people at MSNBC. [00:46:49] They got rid of some others at CNN as well. [00:46:53] In other words, at some point, or the BBC, for example, getting rid of Deb Turnis, Deb, who used to run NBC. [00:47:02] You see how incestuous this all is? [00:47:04] But, you know, she had to take the heat. [00:47:06] She claims she stepped down. [00:47:08] If she really, really wanted to back her journalists, I don't think she would have stepped down. [00:47:12] I don't think she had a choice. [00:47:13] And so it's getting to the point now, Whoopi, where the bosses at ABC are paying attention. [00:47:21] And Bob Iger, who's the CEO of Disney, he's paying attention. [00:47:25] He needs a win. [00:47:27] And he can't catch a break with this administration. [00:47:29] He doesn't deserve to catch a break because, you know, frankly, the programming has been that awful. [00:47:33] And as I've said before, you have to think about the reality that broadcast television is under a very, Very different microscope than the likes of, say, cable. [00:47:45] Cable's a whole different animal. [00:47:46] And in cable, you can get away with a whole lot. [00:47:48] You can be as opinionated as you want, right? [00:47:51] In cable, because in cable, you're not held to the 1934 Communications Act. [00:47:56] But in the case of network television, yeah, the FCC presides over you and the FCC has some say in all of this. [00:48:05] And that's why you got to think about what Brandon is saying. [00:48:08] I'm going to show you when he talks about. [00:48:12] Colbert having gotten canceled, or he talks about the possibility of Kimmel getting canceled, or he talks about The View getting canceled. [00:48:20] Like this is the stuff that is keeping the ABC and Disney executives up at night as it should. [00:48:28] Let's go to The View, shall we? [00:48:30] Joy Behar yesterday said this. [00:48:35] First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on January 6th? [00:48:38] Wait, let me think. [00:48:39] Who was that again? [00:48:41] That was not Obama. [00:48:42] The thing about him is that he's so jealous of Obama because Obama is everything that he is not trim, smart, handsome, happily married, and can sing Al Green's song, Let's Stay Together, better than Al Green. [00:49:00] And Trump cannot stand it. [00:49:02] It's driving him crazy. [00:49:03] Jealousy is not a pretty. [00:49:05] Green is not a good color. [00:49:07] That from yesterday. [00:49:08] Who knows what happens today? [00:49:09] The White House chose to respond to that. [00:49:12] And this is what they said Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump derangement syndrome. [00:49:19] It's no surprise that the View's ratings hit an all time low last year. [00:49:23] She should self reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump's historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off air. [00:49:32] Is the View. [00:49:33] Now in the crosshairs of this administration. [00:49:37] Look, it's entirely possible that there's issues over there. [00:49:41] I mean, again, stepping back this broader dynamic, once President Trump has exposed these media gatekeepers and smashed this facade, there's a lot of consequences. [00:49:49] And I think the consequences of that aren't quite finished. [00:49:52] And look, the view's got a lot of challenges there. [00:49:54] It wasn't that long ago, I think one episode, one show alone, they had to stop, interrupt the show, and read four separate legal notices to try to avoid legal liability. [00:50:03] So I'm not surprised to hear people saying that their ratings are struggling. [00:50:06] Wow. [00:50:06] Sir, where does this end then? [00:50:09] Look, I think we need a course correction. [00:50:11] You know, it's time for America's legacy broadcasters to return to promoting the public interest. [00:50:16] And just recently, you know, Skydance, which is looking to acquire CBS, wrote letters to the FCC committing to serious change, to trying to root out bias, to putting in place an ombudsman that would address these issues, to returning to unbiased, trustworthy journalism. [00:50:33] That's where we have to go. [00:50:34] And I think we're getting some wins along the way. [00:50:36] It's trust but verify at the end of the day. [00:50:37] You know, we're not where we need to go. [00:50:39] But I think this legacy media really needs to reorient, or they're going to continue to run into issues like Colbert, where it just doesn't make economic sense to run a partisan circus. [00:50:47] You better believe it. [00:50:49] It doesn't make economic sense. [00:50:50] Like, look, this is part of the problem right now. [00:50:52] When you think about the economy that these media companies are living through, you look at what we're doing right here, right? [00:51:00] Like, it's fantastic. [00:51:01] On the Trish Regan channel, we're up over a million subs. [00:51:04] Thank you for that, guys. [00:51:05] Thank you for everything you're doing. [00:51:06] By the way, I posted the Spotify show in the chat. [00:51:10] So if you get a chance, go over and Subscribe to me there too because that's an uphill battle. [00:51:14] That one's like 15,000. [00:51:17] So, we need some help. [00:51:18] We need a little bit of love over on Spotify. [00:51:20] It'd be great if you could also give me five stars and a nice comment. [00:51:24] Thank you. [00:51:24] Thank you in advance. [00:51:25] It's all free. [00:51:26] But the point being that we've had such success here, and this truly is the future, right? [00:51:31] This is the medium. [00:51:32] I've talked about this previously in my financial newsletter, 76 Research. [00:51:38] You can go there and use code WordDOLLER, my gift to you. [00:51:40] For the first two months, it's a dollar a month and it goes to $9.95. [00:51:43] But hopefully, we're providing you there with the research and the tools so that you can invest. [00:51:49] In your future. [00:51:50] But the point being that this medium is changing so fast, so quickly, and the networks they just can't keep up. [00:51:57] So they're being hindered, one by the reality of the changing landscape and two by the reality that they all like basically, are still living in the Vietnam Era. [00:52:08] I mean, they really are like they're all still like stuck back in Watergate and there's there's a bias there in these newsrooms that makes it very hard to get any kind of authentic Reporting. [00:52:19] So they get the facade of the audience and the teleprompters and the hair and makeup teams and the 40 producers. [00:52:26] And that comes across. [00:52:28] And I think when you're up against, you know, hey, hey, a show like this or any number of other podcasts out there that are far more transparent and, you know, hey, we're not perfect, right? [00:52:43] Leslie, you tell me if the audio is messing up again, but we're in it together. === Argentina Bailout Controversy (08:20) === [00:52:49] And I think. [00:52:50] You guys get that. [00:52:51] I thought it was the beauty of Bongino's show, for example. [00:52:54] And I'm not just saying that because I like him. [00:52:56] I think he had one of the best shows out there. [00:52:58] This is one of the downside of having him at the FBI is I miss him actually on his show because he did a phenomenal job really breaking down the news, analyzing the news with an authenticity and transparency that you just don't get in other places, including at MSNBC, who also finds itself in a lot of trouble. [00:53:19] MSNBC about to be spun off from parent. [00:53:23] Comcast. [00:53:24] Comcast is like, we can't wait to get rid of you. [00:53:26] We are over this company, right? [00:53:29] And especially over it today because, wow, the Treasury Secretary of the United States of America, one Scott Besant, who's one of the most brilliant minds in finance. [00:53:38] By the way, the guy basically took down the Bank of England. [00:53:40] Just saying. [00:53:41] He's really, really, really smart. [00:53:44] He gets on Morning Joe this morning. [00:53:47] And you got these anchors that don't know squat. [00:53:50] They don't know, you know what, or shinola about the economy and certainly not about the swaps market. [00:53:56] So don't forget, we just did that big deal with Argentina that the mainstream media likes to call a bailout. [00:54:01] Not exactly a bailout because you see, we invested in Argentina and we're investing in Argentina. [00:54:06] Why? [00:54:06] For a reason. [00:54:07] Because we like their president and we believe in that economy. [00:54:12] And most importantly, we can make money off of it, right? [00:54:15] That's why we invest around the world. [00:54:19] Don't tell MSNBC that. [00:54:20] They think it's a bailout. [00:54:21] Listen to Besant positively crush this moronic anchor who doesn't know anything about how international markets work. [00:54:31] Again, you're talking to someone, yours truly, who used to trade sovereign debt at Goldman Sachs, my first gig. [00:54:37] All right. [00:54:37] So, you know, we were actually trading Argentine debt. [00:54:39] I happen to know a lot about this. [00:54:40] So I had a little chuckle when I saw this moment on television this morning. [00:54:45] Take a peek. [00:54:46] Amid this discussion of costs and prices and affordability, how does a $20 billion bailout of Argentina? [00:54:54] Help Americans. [00:54:56] You're the president's point. [00:54:57] Notice that word. [00:54:58] Can you explain to those here who are feeling the pinch, including America's farmers, why the United States is helping out Argentina? [00:55:05] Well, can you do you know what a swap line is? [00:55:08] It's currency swap, yes. [00:55:10] Yes, but what is that? [00:55:11] You're the Treasury Secretary. [00:55:12] Yes, but why would you call it a bailout? [00:55:14] That is how. [00:55:16] In most bailouts, you don't make money. [00:55:18] The U.S. government made money. [00:55:20] We used our financial balance sheet to stabilize the government. [00:55:24] One of our great allies in Latin America during an election. [00:55:29] The president there won in a landslide. [00:55:33] The government's going to make money. [00:55:35] And I would rather use peace through economic strength than have to be shooting at narco boats coming offshore if the government collapsed. [00:55:45] We have a generational opportunity in Latin America to create allies. [00:55:52] We just saw an election in Bolivia. [00:55:53] We're probably going to see an election in Colombia. [00:55:55] We've seen them in Ecuador. [00:55:56] We're going to see them in Colombia. [00:55:58] The Chile. [00:56:00] So, guys, did you see that anchor's face? [00:56:03] Look at him. [00:56:04] He's like, you just can't believe he just got totally, totally disturbed. [00:56:08] Look at that. [00:56:09] Look at that. [00:56:10] Okay, go back. [00:56:12] Here we are. [00:56:12] We're going to see him in the Chile. [00:56:16] So, by stabilizing the economy there and making a profit, then that's a very good deal for the American people. [00:56:27] And there's a lot we could have been doing for American farmers, but Democrats closed the government. [00:56:34] Aha. [00:56:34] Okay. [00:56:35] But something that's really important there is that this administration is actually thinking strategically from both a national security standpoint and a financial standpoint, right? [00:56:46] They're thinking about things like, oh, I don't know, the Monroe Doctrine. [00:56:48] Haven't heard that in a while, right? [00:56:50] But they're actually putting this stuff into play. [00:56:51] And they're like, hey, hey, we want a Latin America that is aligned with our interests, that are capitalist societies. [00:56:57] Look at Malay and the success he's had. [00:56:59] He's taken that chainsaw to the budget, right? [00:57:02] And what do you see? [00:57:03] But an economic miracle in the likes of Argentina. [00:57:06] And so it now looks like, Bolivia, well, they just had their election the other day. [00:57:10] That's going capitalist. [00:57:11] Haha. [00:57:12] What do you know? [00:57:13] Chile, they're reverting around. [00:57:14] It's like the whole Latin America is getting away from the Mamdamis and the Nicolas Maduro Chavismos of the world, and they're going towards us. [00:57:23] And we want to encourage that. [00:57:24] And by the way, make money on it too. [00:57:26] Hello, right? [00:57:27] So that's what a swap trade is. [00:57:29] That moronic anchor who's just like bruised still. [00:57:32] He can't get over that. [00:57:33] The Treasury Secretary giving him a whipping. [00:57:35] He deserved it. [00:57:36] He absolutely deserved it. [00:57:37] You know who else deserves it? [00:57:38] This loser. [00:57:40] This loser, this communist, Ma'am Dami, well, you know what? [00:57:43] He's getting a whooping. [00:57:44] He's getting a whooping really, really fast because already Kathy Holkle, whose governorship is on the line, and I do believe Elise Stefanik is going to take it from her. [00:57:54] You just look at the newest polls, at least before she even got in the race was ahead of Kathy. [00:57:58] Anyway, Kathy realizes this guy's promising the moon and whoa, she campaigned for him because apparently she hates Cuomo that much. [00:58:05] So she campaigned for the communist and now the communist is coming to her handout. [00:58:10] He wants money. [00:58:11] He wants his mullah and he wants to give free this, free that, free this, free that. [00:58:15] And she's like, okay, I'm sorry, we don't have it. [00:58:18] So already, Kathy's leaving them out to dry. [00:58:21] She's not planning on raising taxes. [00:58:23] She's no fool. [00:58:25] So, can I ask you about these policies where you differ? [00:58:28] Because it's going to matter for New York State and for your bid to remain governor. [00:58:33] And when you talked again about distinguishing yourself in terms of your views from those of Mamdani and yourself as a moderate, right? [00:58:38] His agenda is incredibly ambitious. [00:58:40] It is, as he has described it, A democratic socialist agenda. [00:58:44] Free childcare, free buses, rent freeze, the list goes on. [00:58:49] I talked to him on Monday night. [00:58:50] He said to me he hasn't wavered one millimeter on raising taxes on New York City's wealthiest residents to pay for some of that. [00:58:58] Now, Governor, you have said repeatedly that you would not raise taxes. [00:59:01] You said, I've said there's no new income taxes. [00:59:06] Do you stand by that promise? [00:59:09] Yes. [00:59:10] Yes. [00:59:13] I'm not going to raise taxes. [00:59:15] Again, I am no fool because I do know if I tell everyone their taxes are going up, Elise Stefanik, she's really coming in for the kill. [00:59:23] I mean, she's tough enough already. [00:59:25] This lady means business. [00:59:26] Kathy cannot do what Mam Dami wants. [00:59:30] I mean, the free buses, that's already D-O-A. [00:59:34] Listen to the governor. [00:59:36] I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes money out of a system that relies on the fares of the buses and the subways. [00:59:45] But can we find a path to make it more affordable for people who need help? [00:59:49] Of course we can. [00:59:50] Yeah, right. [00:59:51] Of course you can. [00:59:52] Good luck with that. [00:59:53] I guess more handouts. [00:59:54] I don't know. [00:59:55] You're going to have to tax somebody, Kathy, if you want to do the handouts. [00:59:58] I mean, the Mamdami thing is just spectacularly awful. [01:00:02] And again, go around the world. [01:00:03] Venezuela is the most current day example of this. [01:00:06] At some point. [01:00:07] Everybody leaves. [01:00:08] Okay. [01:00:09] You guys can keep taking and taking and taking and taking. [01:00:11] You think you're going to redistribute it all. [01:00:13] But if you don't have any businesses, if you don't have any jobs, if you don't have anybody that wants to make any money, then what the heck are you going to do? [01:00:18] Right. [01:00:18] Because as Thatcher said, at some point you run out of other people's money. [01:00:21] That's a socialism, communism. [01:00:23] That's a whole other thing entirely. [01:00:25] What's he want? [01:00:25] Free grocery stores are we're going to have grocery stores with less expensive food? [01:00:29] How? [01:00:30] Like seriously, how? [01:00:31] Because my friend John Casimatidis, wonderful conservative, wonderful, wonderful conservative. [01:00:37] He owns all the Gristatis. [01:00:38] Okay. [01:00:39] And he's like, I'm out. [01:00:40] I'm done. [01:00:40] I don't want anything to do with this. [01:00:42] I can't make a profit. [01:00:43] Margins are thin enough on groceries. [01:00:45] And now you guys want to come after the pennies we're making on each of these products? [01:00:49] I don't think so. [01:00:50] So what is the government suddenly going to start growing food and getting into that business? [01:00:54] You know how that turns out. [01:00:57] Ultimately, I've told you my story about my Romanian friend. [01:00:59] Every time I go to her house, I mean, she just can't put enough food on the table. [01:01:02] But she's like, I'm sorry, Trish. [01:01:03] You know what? [01:01:04] I grew up under communism. [01:01:06] We're so thrilled to have this food. [01:01:07] I can't give enough of it to you. === Chicago Civil War Fears (05:16) === [01:01:10] So we don't want that. [01:01:12] Here's the deal. [01:01:13] Everybody's going to leave New York, everybody that can. [01:01:15] They're going to hightail it out of New York. [01:01:16] They're going to go to places like Florida and Texas and maybe even New Hampshire. [01:01:20] Hopefully they don't make these red states too blue. [01:01:24] That's a concern, right? [01:01:25] If you live in a red state. [01:01:27] But they're going to flee these policies because they're not going to work and they're going to be devastating for the overall population because you're going to be left with only the people that can't make a living, that are looking for the handout from Mam Dahmey, who, by the way, is moving from his one-bedroom apartment into a big, gigantic mansion. [01:01:44] Yeah, the mayor's mansion. [01:01:47] There in New York City, where he will have his own personal chef and a ballroom. [01:01:52] Imagine that. [01:01:55] I want to get to Chicago, guys, because this guy is itching for something. [01:01:59] I'm kind of wondering what. [01:02:01] I mean, this feels sort of alarming. [01:02:05] This feels like George Wallace, 1963 Alabama, right? [01:02:09] Where George Wallace like refused to allow the National Guard in and refused to allow for the integration of schools. [01:02:17] And now we've got this guy, Brandon Johnson, where the federal government's coming in and saying, hey, we need to help Chicago because the statistics are awful. [01:02:25] And we've got to help you to ensure the safety of these citizens. [01:02:30] And we want to make sure that if there are legals there in Chicago, That have committed crimes, that we are getting them out of Chicago and that we are getting them out of the general population so as we can help these American citizens. [01:02:42] And he's throwing a fit. [01:02:43] He doesn't want any part of it. [01:02:44] And so much so that he got up in front of the United Nations today. [01:02:47] I mean, we got a Chicago mayor standing up in front of the UN taking pot shots at our president. [01:02:53] I don't think so. [01:02:54] This is weird. [01:02:56] Marked by violence and an assault on the dignity of all Chicagoans. [01:03:02] Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson slamming the Trump administration's immigration crackdown before the United Nations Human Rights. Council. [01:03:09] Now he's calling on the UN. [01:03:11] He's calling on the UN for help? [01:03:13] I mean, it almost feels like he really is trying to itch for some kind of dare I say, I have to be careful with these words because I hate to say civil war, but and I'm not talking about a civil war, perhaps in the terms of what we went through with Lincoln, etc., but some kind of civil war because I don't know where this ends in that you have the federal government saying, hey, We have to actually control for immigration. [01:03:43] This is actually our mandate. [01:03:45] This is what ICE does. [01:03:47] This is something that the Constitution gives Congress the power to do. [01:03:53] And so if the federal government is supposed to be in there doing it and Brendan Johnson doesn't want it, and then he turns to the UN human rights, which by the way, that's a whole joke in and of itself. [01:04:04] He goes to them and says, help? [01:04:08] What's that? [01:04:11] Is that some kind of? [01:04:12] I mean, he seems like a traitor to me. [01:04:15] Kind of seems like a traitor to me. [01:04:17] David Lorenzo, you know, you're saying he wants a race war. [01:04:20] I don't even think it's that. [01:04:21] I think it's like a full blown civil war, David. [01:04:23] And I say that because, and again, not with actual tanks and weapons. [01:04:29] God, I hope not. [01:04:30] But an actual, like, full on confrontation. [01:04:35] And I don't think the reason I don't say it's race is because if you're black and you're living in Chicago, believe me, you want the help. [01:04:42] Like you're, you should have like. [01:04:44] The one thing the government should be there to do is to ensure people's safety, of their personal beings as well as their businesses. [01:04:52] And if Brandon Johnson can't do that hey, bring them in right. [01:04:56] Look at the success they had in Washington Dc. [01:04:59] That was a brilliant success, and the mayor, who is a black woman herself, cooperated with the feds on that because she knew like hey, we need the help. [01:05:08] But Brandon is trying to do something very different. [01:05:10] There was a headline in the Chicago Tribune today suggesting that Ice was about to leave. [01:05:15] Well, the Spokesperson for DHS, Tricia McLaughlin, was on FOX earlier today, just a short time ago, saying, Nope, nope, nope, nope, that's bogus. [01:05:24] We are there. [01:05:25] We are committed, and no one's going anywhere. [01:05:27] Watch. [01:05:28] Law enforcement are bringing to American communities. [01:05:31] Okay, so just to add to your response to this reporting out of the Chicago Tribune, Bavino's not going anywhere. [01:05:39] The agents aren't going anywhere. [01:05:40] They're also saying that the FBI and the assistant U.S. attorneys, the on call task force, they make it up. [01:05:48] They are also expected to close up shop in the coming days, per the report. [01:05:51] Your response to that? [01:05:53] We're not going anywhere. [01:05:54] We are here to stay. [01:05:55] The Chicago people demand it. [01:05:57] And we will continue to bring safety and security to the men and women on the ground there. [01:06:01] All right. [01:06:01] We appreciate you joining us. [01:06:02] We had those statistics up on the screen for our viewers. [01:06:05] You cited them. [01:06:06] Okay. [01:06:06] And those statistics are not good, right? [01:06:08] So you're dealing with a lot of crime in Chicago and take the help. [01:06:15] Brandon, your people want it. [01:06:18] They need the help. [01:06:20] I say it's really not a race war because this is not something that's, you know, black or white. === Veterans Paid the Ultimate Price (03:33) === [01:06:26] This is something that's universal. [01:06:28] The need for safety, the need for your kids to be able to get to school and back and not worry about them, the need for you to be able to get to work and back and not worry about your personal safety, the ability to, you know, start a small business and not worry that it's going to get ransacked or looted. [01:06:44] Like this is not something that people should have to worry about under any circumstances, but they've got really bad leadership there. [01:06:52] And if Donald Trump is able to step in and help clean up the joint, oh, I guess Brandon Johnson realizes he looks like a fool because he resisted it to begin with. [01:07:02] Just like Letitia James is resisting any kind of help in the likes of New York and Mandami, believe me, will resist it all day long. [01:07:10] You can resist all you want, people. [01:07:12] But you know what the American public wants? [01:07:15] Safety. [01:07:17] It's not that hard. [01:07:19] It really isn't. [01:07:22] You know, with safety in mind, I do want to say, And just a special word to all our vets out there. [01:07:29] Thank you. [01:07:30] Thank you. [01:07:31] Some people have paid the ultimate sacrifice. [01:07:34] And we are forever indebted to those that are willing to risk their lives for this wonderful, tremendous nation. [01:07:45] And it's in part because of their sacrifice that we can't give up collectively together. [01:07:50] We have to stay focused on making sure we do preserve freedom and opportunity for every single American. [01:07:59] It's critical to our foundation. [01:08:01] It's critical to who we are and it's critical to their legacy. [01:08:06] On this Veterans Day, the President of the United States laying a wreath at Arlington Cemetery and saying these words I want to go to him now. [01:08:15] Today, we remember with overwhelming gratitude the more than one million American service members who have made the supreme sacrifice and laid down their lives for the good old USA. [01:08:29] Generation after generation, America's warriors have left behind the comforts of. [01:08:34] Home and family to face violence, evil, and death, so that our families could know joy, goodness, and peace. [01:08:42] We honor them so strongly. [01:08:45] Our heroes have lived through unthinkable nightmares so we could live the American dream. [01:08:51] And the American dream is coming back again stronger than ever before. [01:08:57] And you'll see that as the next few years evolve. [01:09:03] They have volunteered to give their last breath to all of us. [01:09:07] so that we could breathe free. [01:09:10] And today we know without any doubt in our hearts that after two and a half centuries, America stands tall because America's veterans stood so strong. [01:09:23] Thank you. [01:09:24] Thank you to all of our veterans, including my dad, a veteran of Vietnam, including my now late father-in-law, who was in the Korean War in World War II. [01:09:37] I mean, I just, we we're here because of all of you and to all of those veterans, as the president said, who paid the ultimate price. [01:09:45] We are forever indebted. [01:09:48] And it's for that reason that we can't give up, that we are committed to a future together for a United States of America. [01:09:56] Thank you for being here on this channel. [01:09:58] I'll be back with you again live tomorrow.
