- 00:05:24.251 --> 00:05:24.952
- So you think you have the right people to expose all of this?
- 00:05:25.085 --> 00:05:25.686
- People to expose all of this? so then the question well then
- 00:05:25.820 --> 00:05:27.621
- So then the question well then if they're saying that there's
- 00:05:27.755 --> 00:05:30.891
- If they're saying that there's not much there maybe they're
- 00:05:31.025 --> 00:05:31.792
- Not much there maybe they're right this is something that
- 00:05:31.926 --> 00:05:35.830
- Right this is something that maga and when i say maga let me
- 00:05:35.963 --> 00:05:36.764
- Maga and when i say maga let me be clear i'm talking about that
- 00:05:36.897 --> 00:05:39.133
- Be clear i'm talking about that five maybe 10% of maga that's
- 00:05:39.266 --> 00:05:39.867
- Five maybe 10% of maga that's this the line the sand this is
- 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:42.536
- This the line the sand this is their issue they don't want to
- 00:05:42.670 --> 00:05:43.304
- Their issue they don't want to hear that that maybe right they
- 00:05:43.437 --> 00:05:46.874
- Hear that that maybe right they believe there's a list they
- 00:05:47.007 --> 00:05:47.575
- Believe there's a list they believe there's lots of names.
- 00:05:47.708 --> 00:05:50.077
- Believe there's lots of names. my sources are telling me that
- 00:05:50.211 --> 00:05:50.845
- My sources are telling me that that may not actually be the
- 00:05:50.978 --> 00:05:51.579
- That may not actually be the case that are definitely some
- 00:05:51.712 --> 00:05:54.515
- Case that are definitely some names out there but any sort of
- 00:05:54.648 --> 00:05:55.282
- Names out there but any sort of list doesn't really exist and i
- 00:05:55.416 --> 00:05:57.751
- List doesn't really exist and i think that's what president
- 00:05:57.885 --> 00:05:58.452
- Think that's what president trump is trying to say that the
- 00:05:58.586 --> 00:05:59.253
- Trump is trying to say that the hoax part of this seems to be
- 00:05:59.386 --> 00:06:01.822
- Hoax part of this seems to be the way he's president trump
- 00:06:01.956 --> 00:06:02.556
- The way he's president trump has explained it is that there
- 00:06:02.690 --> 00:06:05.626
- Has explained it is that there is no list and that the maga
- 00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:09.530
- Is no list and that the maga has bought into this idea that
- 00:06:09.663 --> 00:06:10.331
- Has bought into this idea that there is an actual list, there
- 00:06:10.464 --> 00:06:11.098
- There is an actual list, there is a list is what is what many
- 00:06:11.232 --> 00:06:13.701
- Is a list is what is what many in the administration are
- 00:06:13.834 --> 00:06:14.335
- In the administration are saying and so therefore while
- 00:06:14.468 --> 00:06:17.104
- Saying and so therefore while there might be some names that
- 00:06:17.238 --> 00:06:17.872
- There might be some names that are still need to be redacted,
- 00:06:18.005 --> 00:06:21.141
- Are still need to be redacted, if you will, an fbi affidavit
- 00:06:21.275 --> 00:06:21.942
- If you will, an fbi affidavit in court, there is not that big
- 00:06:22.076 --> 00:06:25.045
- In court, there is not that big big to do list that everybody
- 00:06:25.179 --> 00:06:25.813
- Big to do list that everybody was waiting for and i think
- 00:06:25.946 --> 00:06:28.983
- Was waiting for and i think that's part of it.
- 00:06:29.116 --> 00:06:29.517
- That's part of it. >> but they need to be more
- 00:06:29.650 --> 00:06:30.251
- >> but they need to be more clear on it and they haven't.
- 00:06:30.384 --> 00:06:31.018
- Clear on it and they haven't. well, isn't pam bondi part of
- 00:06:32.753 --> 00:06:33.587
- Well, isn't pam bondi part of the i mean if there's a hoax in
- 00:06:33.721 --> 00:06:36.156
- The i mean if there's a hoax in any part of the politics i
- 00:06:36.290 --> 00:06:36.924
- Any part of the politics i mean, you know, she said the
- 00:06:37.057 --> 00:06:37.625
- Mean, you know, she said the list is on desk.
- 00:06:37.758 --> 00:06:39.593
- List is on desk. you can't get any clearer than
- 00:06:39.727 --> 00:06:40.361
- You can't get any clearer than that.
- 00:06:40.494 --> 00:06:40.661
- That. and so now to come out and say
- 00:06:40.794 --> 00:06:43.764
- And so now to come out and say well there isn't a list well
- 00:06:43.898 --> 00:06:44.598
- Well there isn't a list well then you know, there's an
- 00:06:44.732 --> 00:06:47.067
- Then you know, there's an obvious discrepancy between the
- 00:06:47.201 --> 00:06:50.704
- Obvious discrepancy between the two.
- 00:06:50.838 --> 00:06:50.971
- Two. so is is she going to survive?
- 00:06:51.105 --> 00:06:54.408
- So is is she going to survive? >> is she going to make it
- 00:06:54.542 --> 00:06:55.276
- >> is she going to make it through this controversy?
- 00:06:55.409 --> 00:06:58.345
- Through this controversy? >> i think for now she will.
- 00:06:58.479 --> 00:06:59.179
- >> i think for now she will. my spidey sense on this gordon
- 00:06:59.313 --> 00:07:01.615
- My spidey sense on this gordon me we can rack this tape up in
- 00:07:01.749 --> 00:07:02.550
- Me we can rack this tape up in about six months or so.
- 00:07:02.683 --> 00:07:03.183
- About six months or so. we'll see.
- 00:07:03.317 --> 00:07:03.584
- We'll see. i don't think ultimately she
- 00:07:03.717 --> 00:07:05.786
- I don't think ultimately she will i think eventually i think
- 00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:06.520
- Will i think eventually i think president trump doesn't want to
- 00:07:06.654 --> 00:07:10.024
- President trump doesn't want to have the major distraction and
- 00:07:10.157 --> 00:07:10.724
- Have the major distraction and be more than a distraction
- 00:07:10.858 --> 00:07:11.392
- Be more than a distraction major problem, of letting his
- 00:07:11.525 --> 00:07:13.961
- Major problem, of letting his attorney general go right now
- 00:07:14.094 --> 00:07:14.662
- Attorney general go right now just six months into his
- 00:07:14.795 --> 00:07:15.296
- Just six months into his administration.
- 00:07:15.429 --> 00:07:17.698
- Administration. jeff sessions of course was let
- 00:07:17.831 --> 00:07:19.934
- Jeff sessions of course was let go the first time around in his
- 00:07:20.067 --> 00:07:20.768
- Go the first time around in his administration.
- 00:07:20.901 --> 00:07:21.235
- Administration. i don't think he wants to see
- 00:07:21.368 --> 00:07:21.969
- I don't think he wants to see that happen.
- 00:07:22.102 --> 00:07:24.471
- That happen. do i think she'll survive for
- 00:07:24.605 --> 00:07:25.239
- Do i think she'll survive for now?
- 00:07:25.372 --> 00:07:25.506
- Now? yes.
- 00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:25.773
- Yes. do do i think ultimately
- 00:07:25.906 --> 00:07:27.875
- Do do i think ultimately survive?
- 00:07:28.008 --> 00:07:28.242
- Survive? no, i don't think so.
- 00:07:28.375 --> 00:07:28.842
- No, i don't think so. i think i think there's
- 00:07:28.976 --> 00:07:29.677
- I think i think there's frustration for sure because
- 00:07:29.810 --> 00:07:31.879
- Frustration for sure because look, pam bondi's big mistake
- 00:07:32.012 --> 00:07:35.115
- Look, pam bondi's big mistake here is i mean to use a kind of
- 00:07:35.249 --> 00:07:36.116
- Here is i mean to use a kind of a hollywood analogy you're
- 00:07:36.250 --> 00:07:36.784
- A hollywood analogy you're going to say george clooney is
- 00:07:36.917 --> 00:07:39.420
- Going to say george clooney is going to show up at a premiere
- 00:07:39.553 --> 00:07:40.220
- Going to show up at a premiere and instead you get dom deluise
- 00:07:40.354 --> 00:07:43.123
- And instead you get dom deluise .
- 00:07:43.257 --> 00:07:43.357
- . >> womp womp.
- 00:07:43.490 --> 00:07:43.791
- >> womp womp. you know, it's like you know,
- 00:07:43.924 --> 00:07:44.525
- You know, it's like you know, wait a minute.
- 00:07:44.658 --> 00:07:44.959
- Wait a minute. you can't promise clooney and
- 00:07:45.092 --> 00:07:46.760
- You can't promise clooney and then not deliver clooney at the
- 00:07:46.894 --> 00:07:47.494
- Then not deliver clooney at the premiere and that's exactly
- 00:07:47.628 --> 00:07:50.397
- Premiere and that's exactly bondi did on multiple occasions
- 00:07:50.531 --> 00:07:51.231
- Bondi did on multiple occasions not just with the maga
- 00:07:51.365 --> 00:07:51.865
- Not just with the maga influencers as it relates to
- 00:07:51.999 --> 00:07:55.436
- Influencers as it relates to those binders we saw them
- 00:07:55.569 --> 00:07:56.103
- Those binders we saw them holding up saying here come the
- 00:07:56.236 --> 00:07:56.904
- Holding up saying here come the epstein files.
- 00:07:57.037 --> 00:07:59.039
- Epstein files. but where she actually said
- 00:07:59.206 --> 00:07:59.840
- But where she actually said i've got the list right in
- 00:07:59.974 --> 00:08:00.507
- I've got the list right in front of me and then she tried
- 00:08:00.641 --> 00:08:02.576
- Front of me and then she tried backtrack that.
- 00:08:02.710 --> 00:08:03.043
- Backtrack that. >> so yeah, i think she's in a
- 00:08:03.177 --> 00:08:03.877
- >> so yeah, i think she's in a bit of trouble for sure.
- 00:08:04.011 --> 00:08:04.511
- Bit of trouble for sure. well what's the way forward
- 00:08:06.280 --> 00:08:07.114
- Well what's the way forward here?
- 00:08:07.247 --> 00:08:07.414
- Here? >> are we going to see some
- 00:08:07.548 --> 00:08:08.115
- >> are we going to see some kind of congressional do you
- 00:08:08.248 --> 00:08:10.718
- Kind of congressional do you think that's on the horizon?
- 00:08:10.851 --> 00:08:11.452
- Think that's on the horizon? do you think the fbi is going
- 00:08:11.585 --> 00:08:14.254
- Do you think the fbi is going to act independently of, the
- 00:08:14.388 --> 00:08:17.625
- To act independently of, the attorney general, do you think
- 00:08:17.758 --> 00:08:18.359
- Attorney general, do you think they administration is going to
- 00:08:18.492 --> 00:08:21.929
- They administration is going to reverse course and say let's
- 00:08:22.062 --> 00:08:22.663
- Reverse course and say let's let's disclose this the the
- 00:08:22.796 --> 00:08:26.734

- I mean one of the young girls involved in it committed
- 00:08:28.869 --> 00:08:29.370
- Involved in it committed suicide in australia.
- 00:08:29.503 --> 00:08:32.439
- Suicide in australia. so the the damage to the women
- 00:08:32.573 --> 00:08:36.610
- So the the damage to the women and the girls is is ongoing and

- And the girls is is ongoing and we're going to continually hear
- 00:08:40.748 --> 00:08:44.351
- We're going to continually hear that and so at some point
- 00:08:44.485 --> 00:08:45.119
- That and so at some point you've got to you know
- 00:08:45.252 --> 00:08:48.255
- You've got to you know disinfected by full disclosure
- 00:08:48.389 --> 00:08:49.023
- Disinfected by full disclosure so ones are going to happen and
- 00:08:49.156 --> 00:08:52.092
- So ones are going to happen and how is it going to happen?
- 00:08:52.226 --> 00:08:52.793
- How is it going to happen? >> well i think it will happen
- 00:08:52.926 --> 00:08:55.562
- >> well i think it will happen obviously the timing on this

- Obviously the timing on this who exactly knows maybe in the
- 00:08:56.430 --> 00:08:57.031
- Who exactly knows maybe in the next week.
- 00:08:57.164 --> 00:08:59.199
- Next week. but my sense is is that whether
- 00:08:59.333 --> 00:09:00.034
- But my sense is is that whether it would be pam bondi my guess
- 00:09:00.167 --> 00:09:00.768
- It would be pam bondi my guess is it will be pam and others
- 00:09:00.901 --> 00:09:03.270
- Is it will be pam and others who will have to come out and
- 00:09:03.404 --> 00:09:04.038

- Questions. >> what she could gordon, is
- 00:09:08.542 --> 00:09:10.811
- >> what she could gordon, is call on those judges.
- 00:09:10.944 --> 00:09:14.148
- Call on those judges. they're the ones that have the
- 00:09:14.281 --> 00:09:14.915
- They're the ones that have the power to in essence release the
- 00:09:15.049 --> 00:09:17.985
- Power to in essence release the names of those that are in
- 00:09:18.118 --> 00:09:18.686

- Files. the doj does not have that
- 00:09:22.256 --> 00:09:22.890
- The doj does not have that power but the judges do.
- 00:09:23.023 --> 00:09:25.659
- Power but the judges do. this is something alan
- 00:09:25.793 --> 00:09:26.260
- This is something alan dershowitz has talked about
- 00:09:26.393 --> 00:09:26.927
- Dershowitz has talked about before and that is true i have
- 00:09:27.061 --> 00:09:29.797
- Before and that is true i have confirmed that in terms of the
- 00:09:29.930 --> 00:09:30.564
- Confirmed that in terms of the judges being able to have that
- 00:09:30.698 --> 00:09:31.331
- Judges being able to have that power so that that is something
- 00:09:31.465 --> 00:09:34.034
- Power so that that is something she could call on and then of
- 00:09:34.168 --> 00:09:34.835
- She could call on and then of course some things that she's
- 00:09:34.968 --> 00:09:38.105
- Course some things that she's going to have to do with that
- 00:09:38.238 --> 00:09:38.906
- Going to have to do with that press conference to soothe
- 00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:39.606
- Press conference to soothe maggie, the other part of would
- 00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:41.008
- Maggie, the other part of would be a potential special counsel
- 00:09:41.141 --> 00:09:41.709
- Be a potential special counsel not necessarily on epstein but
- 00:09:41.842 --> 00:09:44.912
- Not necessarily on epstein but more as we're starting to see a
- 00:09:45.045 --> 00:09:45.679
- More as we're starting to see a deep state deep state counsel
- 00:09:45.813 --> 00:09:46.413
- Deep state deep state counsel or, special counsel to look
- 00:09:46.547 --> 00:09:49.083
- Or, special counsel to look into everything including
- 00:09:49.216 --> 00:09:49.717
- Into everything including epstein things that have gone
- 00:09:49.850 --> 00:09:52.086
- Epstein things that have gone on in the last ten years or so.
- 00:09:52.219 --> 00:09:52.953
- On in the last ten years or so. >> well, there needs to be
- 00:09:53.087 --> 00:09:53.654
- >> well, there needs to be examination of the plea the
- 00:09:53.787 --> 00:09:56.223
- Examination of the plea the yeah, the state court
- 00:09:56.356 --> 00:09:57.024
- Yeah, the state court proceeding all of these things
- 00:09:57.157 --> 00:10:00.027
- Proceeding all of these things it just frankly from outside it
- 00:10:00.160 --> 00:10:03.664
- It just frankly from outside it just it looks like a huge mess
- 00:10:03.797 --> 00:10:07.167
- Just it looks like a huge mess .
- 00:10:07.301 --> 00:10:07.401
- . and my concern is is the
- 00:10:07.534 --> 00:10:08.235
- And my concern is is the administration that losing
- 00:10:08.368 --> 00:10:10.571
- Administration that losing credibility and will anything
- 00:10:10.704 --> 00:10:11.305
- Credibility and will anything they do right now is going to

- It makes no sense. i do not understand a school
- 00:22:11.108 --> 00:22:11.742

- 00:22:11.875 --> 00:22:14.177
- System that wants to launch an investigation based on what was
- 00:22:14.311 --> 00:22:14.945

- But here's something that does make sense.
- 00:22:19.850 --> 00:22:22.119
- Make sense. all of this really goes back to
- 00:22:22.252 --> 00:22:22.953
- All of this really goes back to the supreme court and there was
- 00:22:23.086 --> 00:22:23.687
- The supreme court and there was a very interesting they had and
- 00:22:23.820 --> 00:22:26.523
- A very interesting they had and it was it didn't apply to
- 00:22:26.657 --> 00:22:27.357
- It was it didn't apply to schools.
- 00:22:27.491 --> 00:22:30.193
- Schools. it applied to employment and
- 00:22:30.327 --> 00:22:30.894
- It applied to employment and discrimination in employment.
- 00:22:31.028 --> 00:22:31.595
- Discrimination in employment. there was a funeral home the
- 00:22:33.664 --> 00:22:34.565
- There was a funeral home the funeral home a male employee
- 00:22:34.698 --> 00:22:37.768
- Funeral home a male employee who was transitioning.
- 00:22:37.901 --> 00:22:41.972
- Who was transitioning. he would show up to funerals in
- 00:22:42.105 --> 00:22:43.040
- He would show up to funerals in a dress but having a full beard
- 00:22:43.173 --> 00:22:46.209
- A dress but having a full beard and that caused families of
- 00:22:46.343 --> 00:22:50.180
- And that caused families of doing funerals and mourning
- 00:22:50.314 --> 00:22:53.850
- Doing funerals and mourning their long loved ones
- 00:22:53.984 --> 00:22:54.451
- Their long loved ones discomfort didn't like that and
- 00:22:54.585 --> 00:22:57.754
- Discomfort didn't like that and so the funeral home was losing
- 00:22:57.888 --> 00:22:58.622
- So the funeral home was losing business the funeral home.
- 00:22:58.755 --> 00:23:01.291
- Business the funeral home. the supreme court said the
- 00:23:01.425 --> 00:23:02.125
- The supreme court said the funeral home could not fire
- 00:23:02.259 --> 00:23:05.495
- Funeral home could not fire that employee that that would
- 00:23:05.629 --> 00:23:06.229
- That employee that that would be now sex discrimination under
- 00:23:06.363 --> 00:23:09.232
- Be now sex discrimination under the civil rights laws.
- 00:23:09.366 --> 00:23:09.833
- The civil rights laws. so you look at that definition
- 00:23:12.402 --> 00:23:13.203
- So you look at that definition and is it any wonder that we're
- 00:23:13.337 --> 00:23:17.107
- And is it any wonder that we're seeing this kind of confusion
- 00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:17.841
- Seeing this kind of confusion in our school system?
- 00:23:17.975 --> 00:23:20.410
- In our school system? the supreme court needs to say
- 00:23:20.544 --> 00:23:21.278
- The supreme court needs to say enough of this.
- 00:23:21.411 --> 00:23:24.514

- 00:23:24.648 --> 00:23:25.282
