Sekulow | Sekulow - Shocking News Revealed in Kash Patel Hearing | October 1, 2025
  • (beep)
  • 00:00:00.433 --> 00:00:00.041
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:00:00.408 --> 00:00:18.993
  • - we are talking about right now,
  • 00:00:19.661 --> 00:00:21.029
  • Kash patel senate judiciary committee meeting
  • 00:00:21.029 --> 00:00:24.999
  • That he does.
  • 00:00:24.999 --> 00:00:25.834
  • This was fairly regular.
  • 00:00:25.834 --> 00:00:26.668
  • They host these.
  • 00:00:26.668 --> 00:00:28.169
  • - that's right. it's part of the oversight function
  • 00:00:28.169 --> 00:00:29.370
  • Of the senate judiciary committee
  • 00:00:29.370 --> 00:00:30.538
  • As they host the administration heads
  • 00:00:30.538 --> 00:00:32.941
  • Of different departments under their purview.
  • 00:00:32.941 --> 00:00:34.509
  • - what's good is you get kind of an inside look
  • 00:00:34.509 --> 00:00:36.077
  • Of what's actually going on,
  • 00:00:36.077 --> 00:00:37.312
  • What's happening in washington dc
  • 00:00:37.312 --> 00:00:38.913
  • And look, so sometimes it's good to take a little bit
  • 00:00:38.913 --> 00:00:41.249
  • Of a breather and be able to know what else is going on.
  • 00:00:41.249 --> 00:00:43.852
  • As again, kash patel faces this committee.
  • 00:00:43.852 --> 00:00:46.488
  • And what we've learned through him is he's not afraid
  • 00:00:46.488 --> 00:00:49.023
  • To give actually a decent amount
  • 00:00:49.023 --> 00:00:50.125
  • Of information at these hearings
  • 00:00:50.125 --> 00:00:51.893
  • And that is what we have found.
  • 00:00:51.893 --> 00:00:53.294
  • I just wanna kick off with a soundbite from this.
  • 00:00:53.294 --> 00:00:55.363
  • So you know, this is something we're paying attention to.
  • 00:00:55.363 --> 00:00:56.764
  • Will you wanna set this up?
  • 00:00:56.764 --> 00:00:58.266
  • - yeah, so this is actually from the opening statement
  • 00:00:58.266 --> 00:01:00.068
  • Of director patel and we'll get into a lot
  • 00:01:00.068 --> 00:01:01.936
  • Of the other stuff that was asked by the senators as well,
  • 00:01:01.936 --> 00:01:05.039
  • Including some new information
  • 00:01:05.039 --> 00:01:06.474
  • On the charlie kirk assassination.
  • 00:01:06.474 --> 00:01:09.377
  • But i think we should lead with this,
  • 00:01:09.377 --> 00:01:10.912
  • Where this is him going over the work
  • 00:01:10.912 --> 00:01:13.748
  • The fbi has done under his leadership
  • 00:01:13.748 --> 00:01:17.218
  • As compared to last year's numbers from the fbi.
  • 00:01:17.218 --> 00:01:20.955
  • Let's play bite 19.
  • 00:01:20.955 --> 00:01:22.590
  • - under this administration,
  • 00:01:23.191 --> 00:01:24.692
  • The fbi's arrested more than 23,000 violent criminals.
  • 00:01:24.692 --> 00:01:28.463
  • That's more than twice
  • 00:01:28.463 --> 00:01:30.031
  • For the same time period from last year alone, 23,000,
  • 00:01:30.031 --> 00:01:33.835
  • More than twice from the same time period last year.
  • 00:01:33.835 --> 00:01:37.105
  • We've taken over 6,000 illegal firearms off the streets.
  • 00:01:37.105 --> 00:01:41.042
  • That number is an exponential increase.
  • 00:01:41.042 --> 00:01:43.144
  • We've identified and located more than 4,700 child victims.
  • 00:01:43.144 --> 00:01:47.749
  • More than 4,700 child victims have been found by this fbi.
  • 00:01:47.749 --> 00:01:51.619
  • That is a 35% increase from the same time period last year.
  • 00:01:51.619 --> 00:01:56.558
  • 1,500 child predators have been arrested.
  • 00:01:57.458 --> 00:02:00.461
  • That's a 5% increase from the same time last year.
  • 00:02:00.461 --> 00:02:03.531
  • 300 human traffickers have been arrested.
  • 00:02:03.531 --> 00:02:06.935
  • That's a 10% increase from the same time last year.
  • 00:02:06.935 --> 00:02:11.206
  • Over 350 members of tren de aragua,
  • 00:02:11.206 --> 00:02:14.042
  • Foreign terrorist organization have been arrested,
  • 00:02:14.042 --> 00:02:17.178
  • And we have 42 ongoing cases.
  • 00:02:17.178 --> 00:02:19.447
  • That is a 250% increase from the same time last year.
  • 00:02:19.447 --> 00:02:24.419
  • Those are just some of the things
  • 00:02:24.419 --> 00:02:25.820
  • The fbi is doing differently and better
  • 00:02:25.820 --> 00:02:28.523
  • Because we are leading the mission
  • 00:02:28.523 --> 00:02:29.824
  • To crush violent crime and defend the homeland.
  • 00:02:29.824 --> 00:02:32.360
  • We have also arrested four,
  • 00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:35.663
  • Captured four top 10 fugitives from the fbi's
  • 00:02:35.663 --> 00:02:39.167
  • Top 10 most wanted list.
  • 00:02:39.167 --> 00:02:41.369
  • To put that in perspective,
  • 00:02:41.369 --> 00:02:43.171
  • That's the same amount i've captured in seven months
  • 00:02:43.171 --> 00:02:46.074
  • Than my predecessor did during
  • 00:02:46.074 --> 00:02:47.375
  • The entirety of the biden administration.
  • 00:02:47.375 --> 00:02:49.811
  • Those are real results and the credit is
  • 00:02:49.811 --> 00:02:51.546
  • To the men and women at the fbi.
  • 00:02:51.546 --> 00:02:53.781
  • - again, that's kash patel, just this morning.
  • 00:02:53.781 --> 00:02:55.950
  • It's happening right now as we speak.
  • 00:02:55.950 --> 00:02:57.785
  • If you're watching live that is a meeting
  • 00:02:57.785 --> 00:02:59.187
  • With the us senate judiciary.
  • 00:02:59.187 --> 00:03:01.189
  • That's happening.
  • 00:03:01.189 --> 00:03:02.924
  • You know, he has to answer all these questions.
  • 00:03:02.924 --> 00:03:04.459
  • And what's good about this is, look, we can go
  • 00:03:04.459 --> 00:03:06.728
  • Through a week of chaos and issues,
  • 00:03:06.728 --> 00:03:09.230
  • But let's look at a bigger picture here.
  • 00:03:09.230 --> 00:03:10.765
  • And that bigger picture is a lot of what the fbi is doing
  • 00:03:10.765 --> 00:03:14.002
  • Has resulted in very positive results.
  • 00:03:14.002 --> 00:03:16.671
  • I mean, just alone, you just wanna take
  • 00:03:16.671 --> 00:03:18.606
  • The 4,700 child victims since they took over.
  • 00:03:18.606 --> 00:03:22.744
  • 4,700, nearly 5,000 child victims
  • 00:03:22.744 --> 00:03:27.649
  • Have been located, identified and located,
  • 00:03:27.649 --> 00:03:31.252
  • And found by the fbi.
  • 00:03:31.252 --> 00:03:32.754
  • Is the 35% increase from the previous year.
  • 00:03:33.655 --> 00:03:36.624
  • He goes through a lot of other stats,
  • 00:03:36.624 --> 00:03:37.959
  • But that's the big one that jumps out to me.
  • 00:03:37.959 --> 00:03:39.694
  • When you look at this, obviously there's a lot
  • 00:03:39.694 --> 00:03:41.262
  • Of different ones,
  • 00:03:41.262 --> 00:03:42.597
  • But that one is one we should be celebrating.
  • 00:03:42.597 --> 00:03:44.432
  • - i think, and we can talk to that a little bit as well.
  • 00:03:44.432 --> 00:03:46.868
  • And there's a lot more coming from this hearing
  • 00:03:46.868 --> 00:03:49.304
  • That we'll get into in the next segment,
  • 00:03:49.304 --> 00:03:51.139
  • Including the way that they're handling attacks
  • 00:03:51.139 --> 00:03:53.741
  • On churches on christians, as well as some update
  • 00:03:53.741 --> 00:03:56.577
  • On that investigation into the assassination
  • 00:03:56.577 --> 00:03:58.713
  • Of charlie kirk.
  • 00:03:58.713 --> 00:03:59.947
  • I mean, showing real results
  • 00:03:59.947 --> 00:04:01.716
  • And actually getting back to the mission
  • 00:04:01.716 --> 00:04:04.018
  • Of what the fbi is supposed to be doing
  • 00:04:04.018 --> 00:04:06.154
  • As opposed to the politicization
  • 00:04:06.154 --> 00:04:07.922
  • That we saw in the previous administration.
  • 00:04:07.922 --> 00:04:09.290
  • - and i see a lot of comments coming into, hey,
  • 00:04:09.290 --> 00:04:10.858
  • They didn't do anything with the charlie kirk situation
  • 00:04:10.858 --> 00:04:12.827
  • And the dad had to turn him in.
  • 00:04:12.827 --> 00:04:14.796
  • Obviously it was a fairly short amount of time.
  • 00:04:14.796 --> 00:04:16.497
  • But if you have frustrations
  • 00:04:16.497 --> 00:04:17.899
  • Even with this fbi that's okay, you can call in.
  • 00:04:17.899 --> 00:04:19.100
  • I wanna hear from you.
  • 00:04:19.100 --> 00:04:20.668
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:04:21.035 --> 00:04:25.001
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:04:25.001 --> 00:04:25.332
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:04:25.699 --> 00:04:27.467
  • - we are talking about that committee hearing right now
  • 00:04:27.467 --> 00:04:30.003
  • That kash patel is releasing a lot of information.
  • 00:04:30.003 --> 00:04:32.706
  • Again, not just about current events,
  • 00:04:32.706 --> 00:04:34.141
  • What's happening in the news, but also even some
  • 00:04:34.141 --> 00:04:36.410
  • Of the crime statistics that are coming in,
  • 00:04:36.410 --> 00:04:37.978
  • Including the rescuing of thousands
  • 00:04:37.978 --> 00:04:39.780
  • Of children off the streets.
  • 00:04:39.780 --> 00:04:41.181
  • Much more so than his predecessor.
  • 00:04:41.181 --> 00:04:42.816
  • Went through a lot of those specific details.
  • 00:04:42.816 --> 00:04:44.951
  • But there are some updates
  • 00:04:44.951 --> 00:04:46.420
  • On some of those breaking news items.
  • 00:04:46.420 --> 00:04:48.088
  • Let's break down a little bit though.
  • 00:04:48.088 --> 00:04:49.389
  • What's going on with this hearing.
  • 00:04:49.389 --> 00:04:51.591
  • Now this isn't something that has happened will
  • 00:04:51.591 --> 00:04:53.326
  • And because of the charlie kirk assassination.
  • 00:04:53.326 --> 00:04:56.062
  • But because these can't happen on a regular basis though,
  • 00:04:56.062 --> 00:04:58.398
  • This has been the first one really he's done
  • 00:04:58.398 --> 00:05:00.801
  • To this specific group.
  • 00:05:00.801 --> 00:05:03.003
  • We have seen, tulsi gabbard,
  • 00:05:03.603 --> 00:05:05.105
  • We have seen other people have these kind of hearings
  • 00:05:05.105 --> 00:05:07.240
  • And it is a bit more transparent
  • 00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:09.176
  • Than it feels like it was for the last decade.
  • 00:05:09.176 --> 00:05:11.478
  • The last four years.
  • 00:05:11.478 --> 00:05:12.579
  • - yeah. how many times did you hear
  • 00:05:12.579 --> 00:05:14.014
  • Director ray say, i don't know, i don't know?
  • 00:05:14.014 --> 00:05:16.983
  • Many times when director patel was saying,
  • 00:05:16.983 --> 00:05:19.286
  • I don't know, they were asking
  • 00:05:19.286 --> 00:05:20.420
  • For like a very specific precise number
  • 00:05:20.420 --> 00:05:22.789
  • At a very individualized field office.
  • 00:05:22.789 --> 00:05:26.326
  • Like how many people have either resigned at this specific
  • 00:05:26.326 --> 00:05:29.596
  • Field office and he's like, i don't know that,
  • 00:05:29.596 --> 00:05:31.932
  • But i will get you the response.
  • 00:05:31.932 --> 00:05:34.434
  • With director ray,
  • 00:05:34.434 --> 00:05:36.102
  • It was always something broad like
  • 00:05:36.102 --> 00:05:38.338
  • Why was the fbi targeting catholic churches?
  • 00:05:38.338 --> 00:05:41.274
  • And he's like, i don't know.
  • 00:05:41.274 --> 00:05:42.542
  • I feel like it was just one field office.
  • 00:05:42.542 --> 00:05:43.844
  • So you're already seeing a difference
  • 00:05:43.844 --> 00:05:45.512
  • In the tone, the transparency.
  • 00:05:45.512 --> 00:05:46.980
  • I did like the laying out of the statistics
  • 00:05:46.980 --> 00:05:49.583
  • Of what the fbi has already done.
  • 00:05:49.583 --> 00:05:51.818
  • I mean 23,000 violent criminals
  • 00:05:51.818 --> 00:05:54.554
  • That they have arrested since he has been the director.
  • 00:05:54.554 --> 00:05:58.225
  • 6,000 illegal firearms,
  • 00:05:58.225 --> 00:06:01.561
  • That have been taken off the streets.
  • 00:06:01.561 --> 00:06:03.263
  • These are things that every american
  • 00:06:03.263 --> 00:06:04.698
  • Should be celebrating because now
  • 00:06:04.698 --> 00:06:06.733
  • One of the main criticisms we had about the fbi
  • 00:06:06.733 --> 00:06:09.503
  • Under james comey and then director ray,
  • 00:06:09.503 --> 00:06:12.372
  • Was that the fbi had become a political machine.
  • 00:06:12.372 --> 00:06:15.876
  • It had almost gone back to that j. edgar hoover era
  • 00:06:15.876 --> 00:06:19.579
  • Where the director was able to utilize
  • 00:06:19.579 --> 00:06:23.550
  • And wield the fbi as a political force.
  • 00:06:23.550 --> 00:06:26.486
  • And that's what they were doing.
  • 00:06:26.486 --> 00:06:27.954
  • They were doing political investigations.
  • 00:06:27.954 --> 00:06:31.424
  • They were doing political hit jobs.
  • 00:06:31.424 --> 00:06:34.561
  • They were going after parents at school board meetings.
  • 00:06:34.561 --> 00:06:36.897
  • They were going after pro-life advocates.
  • 00:06:36.897 --> 00:06:39.566
  • They were going after the catholic churches out of richmond
  • 00:06:39.566 --> 00:06:43.670
  • And trying to make that a widespread fbi policy.
  • 00:06:43.670 --> 00:06:46.673
  • What he's showing here is that
  • 00:06:46.673 --> 00:06:48.875
  • By shifting the priorities back to police work
  • 00:06:48.875 --> 00:06:51.511
  • And assisting local police forces,
  • 00:06:51.511 --> 00:06:54.080
  • You can get real results.
  • 00:06:54.080 --> 00:06:55.882
  • When you're seeing that much percentage increase.
  • 00:06:55.882 --> 00:06:59.419
  • And even the fact
  • 00:06:59.419 --> 00:07:00.987
  • That they've caught four on the fbi's 10 most wanted list,
  • 00:07:00.987 --> 00:07:03.924
  • That's more than all of the biden administration,
  • 00:07:03.924 --> 00:07:06.927
  • And they've done that in six months.
  • 00:07:06.927 --> 00:07:08.662
  • That's showing real results to the american people.
  • 00:07:08.662 --> 00:07:11.398
  • And to some degree i think that there are people
  • 00:07:11.398 --> 00:07:14.000
  • That are conservatives that were fans of kash patel,
  • 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.270
  • That are buying in a little bit
  • 00:07:17.270 --> 00:07:18.838
  • To what the media is putting out out there.
  • 00:07:18.838 --> 00:07:21.074
  • They're trying to show chaos,
  • 00:07:21.074 --> 00:07:22.709
  • They're trying to show that the fbi has low morale,
  • 00:07:22.709 --> 00:07:25.712
  • That things aren't happening the way they thought.
  • 00:07:25.712 --> 00:07:28.181
  • But in reality, one,
  • 00:07:28.181 --> 00:07:30.150
  • The fbi is doing the work they're supposed to do.
  • 00:07:30.150 --> 00:07:31.985
  • So if you haven't seen quite the results yet on some
  • 00:07:31.985 --> 00:07:34.487
  • Of the higher profile things that you want, one,
  • 00:07:34.487 --> 00:07:37.223
  • If they've done investigation,
  • 00:07:37.223 --> 00:07:38.792
  • A lot of that is in the hands of the doj,
  • 00:07:38.792 --> 00:07:40.894
  • When we know that they've impaneled grand juries
  • 00:07:40.894 --> 00:07:42.596
  • In some of those.
  • 00:07:42.596 --> 00:07:43.530
  • So that's outta the fbi's hands.
  • 00:07:43.530 --> 00:07:45.198
  • But also it shows this is the work of the fbi
  • 00:07:45.198 --> 00:07:48.501
  • To make america safe again.
  • 00:07:48.501 --> 00:07:51.304
  • That is what president trump ran on.
  • 00:07:51.304 --> 00:07:53.239
  • That is what the fbi's change from being
  • 00:07:53.239 --> 00:07:55.942
  • A political organization that's supposed
  • 00:07:55.942 --> 00:07:59.479
  • To be quasi-independent as they would say
  • 00:07:59.479 --> 00:08:02.482
  • Because of law enforcement not directed by the president.
  • 00:08:02.482 --> 00:08:05.051
  • But we saw how that happened under the last administration,
  • 00:08:05.051 --> 00:08:09.556
  • That the law enforcement capacity
  • 00:08:09.556 --> 00:08:12.258
  • Of the american government
  • 00:08:12.258 --> 00:08:14.894
  • Was weaponized in a political fashion.
  • 00:08:14.894 --> 00:08:17.797
  • They're getting away from that.
  • 00:08:17.797 --> 00:08:19.432
  • And these numbers really speak to that. it's impressive.
  • 00:08:19.432 --> 00:08:22.268
  • And i think that kash patel,
  • 00:08:22.268 --> 00:08:23.737
  • The director has done a good job of laying this out
  • 00:08:23.737 --> 00:08:26.406
  • And we'll get to some more sound here in a second.
  • 00:08:26.406 --> 00:08:28.341
  • - yeah, i am curious. i see a lot of comments coming in.
  • 00:08:28.341 --> 00:08:31.111
  • Some of them are not happy with kash patel, including people
  • 00:08:31.111 --> 00:08:34.114
  • Who have really say they don't have
  • 00:08:34.114 --> 00:08:35.949
  • A lot of trust in him at this point.
  • 00:08:35.949 --> 00:08:37.484
  • I wanna know much like what we have on certain guests.
  • 00:08:37.484 --> 00:08:40.587
  • What is it, what was the tipping point for you?
  • 00:08:40.587 --> 00:08:42.522
  • Why do you feel like you cannot trust
  • 00:08:42.522 --> 00:08:44.491
  • This man anymore in this position?
  • 00:08:44.491 --> 00:08:46.126
  • Because it feel like you're talking
  • 00:08:46.126 --> 00:08:47.627
  • About a pretty strong name.
  • 00:08:47.627 --> 00:08:49.562
  • Kash patel, dan bongino
  • 00:08:49.562 --> 00:08:50.897
  • Have kind of fulfilled that promise.
  • 00:08:50.897 --> 00:08:53.199
  • Now look, everyone's gonna have issues.
  • 00:08:53.199 --> 00:08:54.934
  • There's gonna be problems here and there, but the full lack
  • 00:08:54.934 --> 00:08:57.003
  • Of trust is when you have a fairly transparent,
  • 00:08:57.003 --> 00:09:00.240
  • Seems like a guy.
  • 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:01.941
  • Just curious your thoughts.
  • 00:09:01.941 --> 00:09:02.842
  • Tell me why.
  • 00:09:02.842 --> 00:09:03.677
  • Gimme a call.
  • 00:09:03.677 --> 00:09:04.878
  • Right now when we look at the future
  • 00:09:04.878 --> 00:09:05.979
  • Of what society's gonna look like,
  • 00:09:05.979 --> 00:09:07.280
  • That we don't build only these echo chambers
  • 00:09:07.280 --> 00:09:09.315
  • That can result in extremes.
  • 00:09:09.315 --> 00:09:11.418
  • You want people who are gonna be honest with you,
  • 00:09:11.418 --> 00:09:12.919
  • That's gonna tell you the truth.
  • 00:09:12.919 --> 00:09:14.087
  • That's what we do here.
  • 00:09:14.087 --> 00:09:15.622
  • Whether you like it or not, whether you agree with it or not
  • 00:09:15.622 --> 00:09:17.057
  • We give you our honest assessment from the law,
  • 00:09:17.057 --> 00:09:19.559
  • Our honest assessment from the way media decides
  • 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.695
  • To manipulate you or have conversations with you.
  • 00:09:21.695 --> 00:09:23.897
  • And look, you've heard from our offices at the eclj,
  • 00:09:23.897 --> 00:09:26.399
  • You've heard from offices in jerusalem.
  • 00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:27.867
  • Let's go ahead and take a phone call though.
  • 00:09:27.867 --> 00:09:29.402
  • Let's go to ronald on rumble line one. go ahead.
  • 00:09:29.402 --> 00:09:32.872
  • - [ronald] yes. thanks for taking my call. yes.
  • 00:09:32.872 --> 00:09:35.608
  • Truly enjoyed the comments that you and will had made
  • 00:09:35.608 --> 00:09:40.246
  • Concerning the contrast between the previous administration
  • 00:09:40.246 --> 00:09:43.650
  • And the current administration.
  • 00:09:43.650 --> 00:09:45.218
  • And i could see that the frustration
  • 00:09:45.218 --> 00:09:47.654
  • That boyle had actually experienced
  • 00:09:47.654 --> 00:09:51.825
  • Because of the fact of seeing all of the power
  • 00:09:51.825 --> 00:09:55.095
  • Of the fbi and the department of justice literally.
  • 00:09:55.095 --> 00:09:58.331
  • - hey ronald, i'm gonna pause you for a second,
  • 00:09:58.331 --> 00:09:59.866
  • Because i want maybe will can explain
  • 00:09:59.866 --> 00:10:01.334
  • People who don't know what you're referring to.
  • 00:10:01.334 --> 00:10:02.836
  • We're talking about o' boyle who was a whistleblower--
  • 00:10:02.836 --> 00:10:05.305
  • - [will] garret o'boyle.
  • 00:10:05.305 --> 00:10:06.573
  • - garret o'boyle, whose case was just resolved.
  • 00:10:06.573 --> 00:10:08.074
  • Let's give people, we'll go right back to you ronald,
  • 00:10:08.074 --> 00:10:09.609
  • But i realize that i do this sometimes
  • 00:10:09.609 --> 00:10:11.044
  • When there's brand new people,
  • 00:10:11.044 --> 00:10:12.011
  • We don't give them any context
  • 00:10:12.011 --> 00:10:13.179
  • What we're talking about here.
  • 00:10:13.179 --> 00:10:14.447
  • Give a little brief background on that.
  • 00:10:14.447 --> 00:10:15.715
  • - yeah. garret o' boyle was an fbi agent
  • 00:10:15.715 --> 00:10:17.584
  • That was a whistleblower trying to point out some
  • 00:10:17.584 --> 00:10:19.652
  • Of the misuse and weaponization and bias of the fbi.
  • 00:10:19.652 --> 00:10:24.124
  • And as a result of that,
  • 00:10:24.124 --> 00:10:25.592
  • He had his security clearance suspended
  • 00:10:25.592 --> 00:10:27.427
  • And he was suspended without pay for years.
  • 00:10:27.427 --> 00:10:29.763
  • And we fought alongside in power oversight
  • 00:10:29.763 --> 00:10:32.732
  • To get a resolution.
  • 00:10:32.732 --> 00:10:34.267
  • He has now been reinstated to the fbi
  • 00:10:34.267 --> 00:10:37.170
  • With back pay and benefits
  • 00:10:37.170 --> 00:10:40.106
  • For all that harm that was done to him and his family.
  • 00:10:40.106 --> 00:10:42.342
  • We also secured one for marcus allen.
  • 00:10:42.342 --> 00:10:44.310
  • Very similar type circumstances.
  • 00:10:44.310 --> 00:10:46.212
  • So ronald was just pointing out
  • 00:10:46.212 --> 00:10:47.647
  • That this fbi is also bringing back people
  • 00:10:47.647 --> 00:10:50.049
  • That were unfairly targeted
  • 00:10:50.049 --> 00:10:51.651
  • For even blowing the whistle on their politicization.
  • 00:10:51.651 --> 00:10:54.387
  • - we may never hear from them again
  • 00:10:54.387 --> 00:10:55.889
  • Because now they are back again in kash patel's oversight,
  • 00:10:55.889 --> 00:10:59.192
  • If you will, which is pretty great.
  • 00:10:59.192 --> 00:11:00.727
  • Let's go back to you ronald though.
  • 00:11:00.727 --> 00:11:02.162
  • Just wanna get people to understand it. go ahead.
  • 00:11:02.162 --> 00:11:04.531
  • - [ronald] yes, sure thing.
  • 00:11:04.531 --> 00:11:05.965
  • And that is why there was just a big contrast
  • 00:11:05.965 --> 00:11:07.767
  • Between the previous administration
  • 00:11:07.767 --> 00:11:09.836
  • And the current administration
  • 00:11:09.836 --> 00:11:11.271
  • And the fact that the numbers say it all
  • 00:11:11.271 --> 00:11:15.208
  • As kash patel was literally just explaining the numbers,
  • 00:11:15.208 --> 00:11:18.611
  • Literally just explains it all.
  • 00:11:18.611 --> 00:11:21.281
  • And the children that were discovered.
  • 00:11:21.281 --> 00:11:25.285
  • - [logan] that's the shocking number.
  • 00:11:26.052 --> 00:11:27.320
  • - [ronald] not just discovered, just rescued
  • 00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:28.788
  • Because who knows what type
  • 00:11:28.788 --> 00:11:30.423
  • Of crime situation they would've been involved in.
  • 00:11:30.423 --> 00:11:33.092
  • Just rescued.
  • 00:11:33.092 --> 00:11:34.627
  • - yeah. 1,500 child predators and over 4,500 i believe.
  • 00:11:34.627 --> 00:11:38.264
  • So 4,700. - [will] 4,700.
  • 00:11:38.264 --> 00:11:39.899
  • - child victims have been found by this fbi.
  • 00:11:39.899 --> 00:11:43.236
  • I think it's at a 35% increase.
  • 00:11:43.236 --> 00:11:45.238
  • Look they could do nothing else.
  • 00:11:45.238 --> 00:11:47.607
  • There could be zero other statistics showing good
  • 00:11:47.607 --> 00:11:50.310
  • This fbi is doing, which of course there are
  • 00:11:50.310 --> 00:11:52.612
  • Great statistics and that alone is worth it.
  • 00:11:52.612 --> 00:11:55.748
  • That alone shows that we have such a changing
  • 00:11:55.748 --> 00:11:57.450
  • Of the guard here where we're taking
  • 00:11:57.450 --> 00:11:59.352
  • The most serious of cases serious,
  • 00:11:59.352 --> 00:12:01.254
  • Which of course there is nothing more serious
  • 00:12:01.254 --> 00:12:03.423
  • Than the victimization of children in this country.
  • 00:12:03.423 --> 00:12:07.126
  • - well, and to point out the hypocrisy of the left,
  • 00:12:07.126 --> 00:12:10.597
  • Right now, they're trying to say all these things
  • 00:12:10.597 --> 00:12:12.498
  • Are covering up for epstein.
  • 00:12:12.498 --> 00:12:14.801
  • When 4,700 victims have been found by the fbi,
  • 00:12:14.801 --> 00:12:18.371
  • 1,500 child predators
  • 00:12:18.371 --> 00:12:20.406
  • And 300 human traffickers have been arrested.
  • 00:12:20.406 --> 00:12:23.443
  • So almost 2000 perpetrators
  • 00:12:23.443 --> 00:12:25.311
  • Of these crimes against children.
  • 00:12:25.311 --> 00:12:27.847
  • Those are huge numbers that cannot be overlooked
  • 00:12:27.847 --> 00:12:32.252
  • That the fbi is doing the real work of people
  • 00:12:32.252 --> 00:12:34.354
  • That are still being victimized today,
  • 00:12:34.354 --> 00:12:36.522
  • Not what the left has all of a sudden co-opted
  • 00:12:36.522 --> 00:12:38.892
  • As their own hit job against the president
  • 00:12:38.892 --> 00:12:41.461
  • And something that cannot be prosecuted further.
  • 00:12:41.461 --> 00:12:45.298
  • So we look at this and see real action
  • 00:12:45.298 --> 00:12:48.034
  • And real numbers by the fbi that cannot be overlooked.
  • 00:12:48.034 --> 00:12:50.536
  • - the numbers are undeniable.
  • 00:12:50.536 --> 00:12:52.372
  • Like i said, there's a lot of different ones.
  • 00:12:52.372 --> 00:12:53.840
  • 6,000 illegal firearms,
  • 00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:55.375
  • 23,000 violent crimes or under 23,000.
  • 00:12:55.375 --> 00:12:59.479
  • A lot of these issues are getting better and better.
  • 00:12:59.479 --> 00:13:02.415
  • But the one that really stuck out to me,
  • 00:13:02.415 --> 00:13:03.850
  • 1,500 child predators arrested.
  • 00:13:03.850 --> 00:13:06.819
  • 4,700 child victims that have been found
  • 00:13:06.819 --> 00:13:10.523
  • By the fbi and that is a over 35% increase
  • 00:13:11.424 --> 00:13:15.461
  • From the previous administrations.
  • 00:13:15.461 --> 00:13:17.597
  • That is a shocking number.
  • 00:13:18.164 --> 00:13:20.633
  • It's a startling number that there aren't one.
  • 00:13:20.633 --> 00:13:22.268
  • You gotta start putting into perspective
  • 00:13:22.268 --> 00:13:24.170
  • If 4,700 victims have been found, how many have not?
  • 00:13:24.170 --> 00:13:27.573
  • How many are still out there?
  • 00:13:27.573 --> 00:13:29.275
  • You're talking about probably 10s of thousands if not more
  • 00:13:29.275 --> 00:13:32.345
  • Just in our country.
  • 00:13:32.345 --> 00:13:33.780
  • That's a whole nother issue that we hope
  • 00:13:34.647 --> 00:13:36.649
  • To keep fighting and fighting.
  • 00:13:36.649 --> 00:13:38.184
  • And a lot of those are connected too.
  • 00:13:38.184 --> 00:13:39.519
  • The thing is, when you have organized crime,
  • 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:41.821
  • You have drug trafficking,
  • 00:13:41.821 --> 00:13:43.056
  • A lot of times you have human trafficking,
  • 00:13:43.056 --> 00:13:44.657
  • You have weapons, you have humans.
  • 00:13:44.657 --> 00:13:46.392
  • A lot of times these are not necessarily guys
  • 00:13:46.392 --> 00:13:48.828
  • Who just deal in one or the other.
  • 00:13:48.828 --> 00:13:50.563
  • They're dealing in all kinds of crime.
  • 00:13:50.563 --> 00:13:52.398
  • And we gotta make sure that we have a team put together
  • 00:13:52.398 --> 00:13:54.334
  • And that we're supportive by the way, also of a team
  • 00:13:54.334 --> 00:13:56.669
  • That can speak into this and can get things done.
  • 00:13:56.669 --> 00:13:59.205
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:13:59.205 --> 00:14:03.003
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:14:03.003 --> 00:14:03.235
  • (upbeat music)
  • 00:14:03.602 --> 00:14:06.271
  • - welcome back to sekulow.
  • 00:14:06.271 --> 00:14:08.006
  • We are gonna take your phone calls coming up,
  • 00:14:08.006 --> 00:14:09.674
  • Some in this segment, some in the next.
  • 00:14:09.674 --> 00:14:11.543
  • We actually have some sound we wanna play.
  • 00:14:11.543 --> 00:14:12.944
  • We wanna make sure that you can, if you're listening
  • 00:14:12.944 --> 00:14:14.479
  • In video, if you're watching, so you hear it from them,
  • 00:14:14.479 --> 00:14:17.416
  • Not just us giving you commentary on it.
  • 00:14:17.416 --> 00:14:18.984
  • 'cause now if you're watching us, you're probably not able
  • 00:14:18.984 --> 00:14:21.053
  • To flip over and watch them at the same time.
  • 00:14:21.053 --> 00:14:23.021
  • So will, why don't you give us a setup for this.
  • 00:14:23.021 --> 00:14:24.623
  • - that's right. so this is following a discussion
  • 00:14:24.623 --> 00:14:26.658
  • That senator hawley had
  • 00:14:26.658 --> 00:14:28.193
  • With director patel about the investigation
  • 00:14:28.193 --> 00:14:31.396
  • And the aftermath of the charlie kirk assassination,
  • 00:14:31.396 --> 00:14:34.266
  • Where director patel revealed
  • 00:14:34.266 --> 00:14:36.668
  • That there are more than 20 individuals
  • 00:14:36.668 --> 00:14:38.537
  • That they are investigating,
  • 00:14:38.537 --> 00:14:40.372
  • Trying to get information on to make sure
  • 00:14:40.372 --> 00:14:42.140
  • That there wasn't any other people involved with that.
  • 00:14:42.140 --> 00:14:45.277
  • But this is where senator hawley broadened it out,
  • 00:14:45.277 --> 00:14:48.780
  • The discussion talking about
  • 00:14:48.780 --> 00:14:50.982
  • What we've seen is violence against,
  • 00:14:50.982 --> 00:14:54.186
  • Anti-religious violence, anti-christian violence
  • 00:14:54.186 --> 00:14:57.022
  • And things of that nature, which have really expanded
  • 00:14:57.022 --> 00:14:59.658
  • In the past few years.
  • 00:14:59.658 --> 00:15:01.026
  • You've seen a lot of school shootings
  • 00:15:01.026 --> 00:15:03.528
  • That have been religiously motivated.
  • 00:15:03.528 --> 00:15:06.198
  • You've seen things that have been stopped
  • 00:15:06.198 --> 00:15:08.900
  • By federal law enforcement in the past year or so
  • 00:15:08.900 --> 00:15:13.271
  • That were religiously motivated attacks on schools
  • 00:15:13.271 --> 00:15:16.308
  • That have been thwarted.
  • 00:15:16.308 --> 00:15:17.843
  • So this is a problem that the center sees is growing.
  • 00:15:18.944 --> 00:15:21.847
  • He asked this question
  • 00:15:21.847 --> 00:15:23.148
  • And i want you to hear the director's response.
  • 00:15:23.148 --> 00:15:25.117
  • This is bite 16 between senator josh hawley
  • 00:15:25.117 --> 00:15:28.120
  • And director patel.
  • 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:30.222
  • - let me just turn to the broader question here
  • 00:15:30.222 --> 00:15:32.591
  • Of anti-religious, anti-christian violence.
  • 00:15:32.591 --> 00:15:34.526
  • Let me just give you a few stats
  • 00:15:34.526 --> 00:15:35.927
  • That i'm sure that you're all too familiar with.
  • 00:15:35.927 --> 00:15:37.796
  • Every person of faith in america certainly is.
  • 00:15:37.796 --> 00:15:39.865
  • Major report this past year found that there
  • 00:15:39.865 --> 00:15:42.434
  • Have been over 400 instances of hostility
  • 00:15:42.434 --> 00:15:46.471
  • Against churches in the united states in the year 2024.
  • 00:15:46.471 --> 00:15:48.773
  • Those included arsons, bomb threats, shootings
  • 00:15:48.773 --> 00:15:52.711
  • And firearm incidents.
  • 00:15:52.711 --> 00:15:54.746
  • One another organizational report found
  • 00:15:54.746 --> 00:15:56.781
  • That there were 500 attacks on catholic parishes alone.
  • 00:15:56.781 --> 00:16:01.686
  • So that number 415, that's all christian churches in 2024.
  • 00:16:01.686 --> 00:16:05.657
  • Another organization found 500 separate attacks
  • 00:16:05.657 --> 00:16:08.593
  • On just catholic parishes since may of 2020.
  • 00:16:08.593 --> 00:16:11.796
  • Of course we have the covenant school shooting,
  • 00:16:11.796 --> 00:16:13.965
  • The annunciation school shooting in minnesota
  • 00:16:13.965 --> 00:16:16.535
  • Where two children were shot dead
  • 00:16:16.535 --> 00:16:17.636
  • As they were praying in a pew.
  • 00:16:17.636 --> 00:16:19.971
  • Here's my question.
  • 00:16:19.971 --> 00:16:21.239
  • What is the fbi doing
  • 00:16:21.239 --> 00:16:23.408
  • To take on this rising tide of violence
  • 00:16:23.408 --> 00:16:27.812
  • That seems to be motivated by anti-religious hatred?
  • 00:16:27.812 --> 00:16:32.184
  • - specifically, sir, we have 60 anti-catholic
  • 00:16:32.184 --> 00:16:35.987
  • Hate crime incidences reported to us
  • 00:16:35.987 --> 00:16:37.822
  • That are being investigated.
  • 00:16:37.822 --> 00:16:39.925
  • Publicly i can tell you
  • 00:16:39.925 --> 00:16:41.159
  • We have five hate crime investigations
  • 00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:43.195
  • With anti-catholic bias ongoing currently in the states,
  • 00:16:43.195 --> 00:16:46.831
  • Excuse me, in the cities of kansas city,
  • 00:16:46.831 --> 00:16:48.633
  • Louisville, houston, nashville and richmond.
  • 00:16:48.633 --> 00:16:52.270
  • That's what i can say publicly.
  • 00:16:52.270 --> 00:16:53.672
  • But any ideologically based attack against any faith
  • 00:16:53.672 --> 00:16:58.510
  • As a man of faith myself will not be tolerated.
  • 00:16:58.510 --> 00:17:01.613
  • And the full resource of the fbi are committed to all of it.
  • 00:17:01.613 --> 00:17:05.116
  • - again, that was kash patel.
  • 00:17:05.116 --> 00:17:06.418
  • That's happening as we speak right now.
  • 00:17:06.418 --> 00:17:08.687
  • I think it's, again, refreshing,
  • 00:17:08.687 --> 00:17:10.522
  • To even have those questions coming in from a josh hawley
  • 00:17:10.522 --> 00:17:12.857
  • Asking about the anti-christian violence, anti-religious
  • 00:17:12.857 --> 00:17:15.560
  • And anti-christian violence, which obviously we're seeing.
  • 00:17:15.560 --> 00:17:18.129
  • We're seeing maybe as brutally
  • 00:17:18.129 --> 00:17:19.631
  • As we've ever seen before in modern times.
  • 00:17:19.631 --> 00:17:22.267
  • Obviously if you wanna look at historical times,
  • 00:17:22.267 --> 00:17:24.369
  • Very different, but in modern times in this country.
  • 00:17:24.369 --> 00:17:27.305
  • So what does that look like moving forward?
  • 00:17:28.206 --> 00:17:29.774
  • And i think that's what a lot of people have to decide.
  • 00:17:29.774 --> 00:17:31.109
  • I think that's what a lot of our listeners
  • 00:17:31.109 --> 00:17:32.110
  • And viewers have to decide is
  • 00:17:32.110 --> 00:17:33.078
  • What does the future look like?
  • 00:17:33.078 --> 00:17:35.380
  • And we are hoping that there are people like this
  • 00:17:36.381 --> 00:17:37.949
  • And there's members of the fbi
  • 00:17:37.949 --> 00:17:39.217
  • And our team here who can help reshape
  • 00:17:39.217 --> 00:17:42.387
  • And lead a new direction for the country
  • 00:17:42.387 --> 00:17:45.957
  • As we are coming out of shock, we're coming out of panic.
  • 00:17:45.957 --> 00:17:49.561
  • But what does the next chapter look like?
  • 00:17:49.561 --> 00:17:51.229
  • - well, and if you even remember,
  • 00:17:51.229 --> 00:17:53.031
  • And i'm not sure if this was in the list
  • 00:17:53.031 --> 00:17:55.367
  • That senator hawley was referencing,
  • 00:17:55.367 --> 00:17:57.168
  • We're talking about the instances
  • 00:17:57.168 --> 00:17:58.503
  • Of hostility against churches
  • 00:17:58.503 --> 00:17:59.871
  • And catholic organizations as well.
  • 00:17:59.871 --> 00:18:02.207
  • But if you'll remember, even in the wake
  • 00:18:02.207 --> 00:18:04.442
  • Of the dobbs decision.
  • 00:18:04.442 --> 00:18:06.544
  • All the vandalism, firebombing, violent attacks
  • 00:18:06.544 --> 00:18:09.314
  • Against pregnancy resource centers,
  • 00:18:09.314 --> 00:18:11.983
  • That was under the biden administration when this happened.
  • 00:18:11.983 --> 00:18:15.720
  • And i believe maybe one person,
  • 00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:19.090
  • One perpetrator was charged, maybe two,
  • 00:18:19.090 --> 00:18:22.994
  • But no more than that when there was dozens
  • 00:18:22.994 --> 00:18:25.964
  • And dozens of instances of vandalism
  • 00:18:25.964 --> 00:18:28.266
  • And violence against pregnancy resource centers.
  • 00:18:28.266 --> 00:18:30.902
  • Instead, what was the fbi doing
  • 00:18:30.902 --> 00:18:33.104
  • Under the biden administration?
  • 00:18:33.104 --> 00:18:35.407
  • They were wanting to send undercover agents
  • 00:18:35.407 --> 00:18:38.310
  • Into catholic churches.
  • 00:18:38.310 --> 00:18:40.178
  • They were investigating parents at school board meetings
  • 00:18:40.178 --> 00:18:43.581
  • That were standing up for their children.
  • 00:18:43.581 --> 00:18:45.984
  • They were raiding in early morning hours,
  • 00:18:45.984 --> 00:18:49.154
  • The home of a pro-life advocate.
  • 00:18:49.154 --> 00:18:53.224
  • And the federal government wasted time and money
  • 00:18:53.224 --> 00:18:55.560
  • And resources on that case to lose in court.
  • 00:18:55.560 --> 00:18:58.630
  • They brought the prosecution
  • 00:18:58.630 --> 00:19:00.665
  • And lost in court to a jury of that man's peers.
  • 00:19:00.665 --> 00:19:06.004
  • And so what you're seeing is a refreshing turn
  • 00:19:06.971 --> 00:19:09.207
  • From the political fbi that we saw
  • 00:19:09.207 --> 00:19:12.844
  • To one that is doing the job
  • 00:19:12.844 --> 00:19:15.246
  • The american people want.
  • 00:19:15.246 --> 00:19:16.581
  • 23,000 violent criminals just
  • 00:19:16.581 --> 00:19:19.918
  • This year arrested by the fbi,
  • 00:19:19.918 --> 00:19:22.020
  • And all those other stats we said,
  • 00:19:22.020 --> 00:19:24.255
  • As well as taking seriously
  • 00:19:24.255 --> 00:19:26.491
  • These ideologically driven attacks
  • 00:19:26.491 --> 00:19:29.160
  • Against people of faith in this country.
  • 00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:31.696
  • That should not be something
  • 00:19:31.696 --> 00:19:33.398
  • That americans of faith are living under.
  • 00:19:33.398 --> 00:19:35.633
  • I don't care what faith you are,
  • 00:19:35.633 --> 00:19:38.470
  • There should not be the fear of worshiping freely.
  • 00:19:38.470 --> 00:19:43.108
  • We have the right to worship,
  • 00:19:43.108 --> 00:19:45.176
  • To live out our faith in this country.
  • 00:19:45.176 --> 00:19:48.713
  • And when groups decide that they want to target,
  • 00:19:48.713 --> 00:19:52.384
  • I don't care who you are, your right, your freedom
  • 00:19:52.384 --> 00:19:56.521
  • To worship, that should not be acceptable
  • 00:19:56.521 --> 00:20:00.492
  • And that should be a priority of the fbi.
  • 00:20:00.492 --> 00:20:03.461
  • So i do love this new way
  • 00:20:03.461 --> 00:20:07.232
  • That the fbi is going through this.
  • 00:20:07.232 --> 00:20:08.700
  • I know that there have been bumps along the way
  • 00:20:08.700 --> 00:20:11.269
  • Because when you are revamping an agency
  • 00:20:11.269 --> 00:20:14.539
  • That was wrought from within with all of this bias,
  • 00:20:14.539 --> 00:20:19.444
  • There are gonna be bumps along the way.
  • 00:20:19.444 --> 00:20:21.179
  • I even think the transparency of kash patel
  • 00:20:21.179 --> 00:20:24.849
  • Has given more fuel to some of his detractors
  • 00:20:24.849 --> 00:20:29.521
  • By being so transparent in real time.
  • 00:20:29.521 --> 00:20:31.790
  • Maybe he needs to recalibrate some of that.
  • 00:20:31.790 --> 00:20:33.792
  • - john of pennsylvania watching on the salem news channel.
  • 00:20:33.792 --> 00:20:35.794
  • John, go ahead.
  • 00:20:35.794 --> 00:20:37.228
  • - [john] yes. hi. good afternoon.
  • 00:20:37.228 --> 00:20:39.431
  • I just wanted to know,
  • 00:20:39.431 --> 00:20:41.199
  • I'm getting a little concerned at kash patel,
  • 00:20:41.199 --> 00:20:43.668
  • He's going on tv stations and saying
  • 00:20:43.668 --> 00:20:46.371
  • That he has found evidence of dna
  • 00:20:46.371 --> 00:20:49.541
  • And stuff against the assassin.
  • 00:20:49.541 --> 00:20:52.444
  • I'm almost positive it's the case in utah
  • 00:20:52.444 --> 00:20:55.914
  • And they're gonna be doing the prosecuting.
  • 00:20:55.914 --> 00:20:58.116
  • So what role does the federal government have?
  • 00:20:58.116 --> 00:21:00.518
  • Why is kash patel saying these things?
  • 00:21:00.518 --> 00:21:02.821
  • Is he gonna damage the case by letting these facts out?
  • 00:21:02.821 --> 00:21:07.492
  • - well, john one, all of that evidence will be in court.
  • 00:21:07.492 --> 00:21:11.196
  • It will be, has to be available
  • 00:21:11.196 --> 00:21:14.566
  • To the defense of the individual.
  • 00:21:14.566 --> 00:21:16.401
  • So i don't think anything there is anything abnormal
  • 00:21:16.401 --> 00:21:20.371
  • And you wouldn't see in a press conference.
  • 00:21:20.371 --> 00:21:21.940
  • Many times, even the local law enforcement say
  • 00:21:21.940 --> 00:21:23.942
  • We have found dna evidence that ties this
  • 00:21:23.942 --> 00:21:26.544
  • Individual to the shooting.
  • 00:21:26.544 --> 00:21:29.047
  • I don't know that anything
  • 00:21:29.047 --> 00:21:31.015
  • That i have heard personally would damage that.
  • 00:21:31.015 --> 00:21:33.952
  • And i'm not an expert on that, but--
  • 00:21:33.952 --> 00:21:35.820
  • - yeah you're referring to the fbi,
  • 00:21:35.820 --> 00:21:36.988
  • But you're referring to kash patel,
  • 00:21:36.988 --> 00:21:38.289
  • But also you're talking about a topic that is,
  • 00:21:38.289 --> 00:21:40.725
  • Needs to be addressed on the country scale,
  • 00:21:40.725 --> 00:21:42.861
  • On a federal scale, even if it's not prosecuted federally.
  • 00:21:42.861 --> 00:21:46.865
  • A lot of people are turning to you
  • 00:21:46.865 --> 00:21:48.700
  • And looking to you and i think it's fine.
  • 00:21:48.700 --> 00:21:50.268
  • The fbi can help out where they can,
  • 00:21:50.268 --> 00:21:51.803
  • There's also local fbi chapters everywhere.
  • 00:21:51.803 --> 00:21:54.072
  • So of course i think they were on the scene within minutes.
  • 00:21:54.072 --> 00:21:57.075
  • - [will] right.
  • 00:21:57.075 --> 00:21:58.443
  • - there was members of the fbi team there in utah.
  • 00:21:58.443 --> 00:22:01.412
  • - so they said they were able to provide air support,
  • 00:22:01.412 --> 00:22:03.481
  • Like getting assets in the air
  • 00:22:03.481 --> 00:22:06.050
  • To help within minutes of the attacking.
  • 00:22:06.050 --> 00:22:08.653
  • - so john, hopefully that,
  • 00:22:08.653 --> 00:22:09.754
  • I know it's a a bit nuanced here,
  • 00:22:09.754 --> 00:22:11.422
  • But i don't believe you have anything here
  • 00:22:11.422 --> 00:22:13.525
  • Where kash patel is stepping too far into this situation
  • 00:22:13.525 --> 00:22:16.861
  • That's gonna cause damage to the case.
  • 00:22:16.861 --> 00:22:18.863
  • Now the case itself shall be an interesting time
  • 00:22:18.863 --> 00:22:21.799
  • Because you now have more evidence
  • 00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:23.201
  • That's come out from the charlie kirk assassination,
  • 00:22:23.201 --> 00:22:25.336
  • Including an admission of guilt
  • 00:22:25.336 --> 00:22:26.638
  • On a forum apparently from like a discord,
  • 00:22:26.638 --> 00:22:30.975
  • Apparently from the alleged shooter.
  • 00:22:30.975 --> 00:22:33.811
  • Now again, how admissible is that?
  • 00:22:33.811 --> 00:22:36.047
  • Who knows.
  • 00:22:36.047 --> 00:22:37.015
  • Because right now, as we know,
  • 00:22:37.015 --> 00:22:38.182
  • He is not necessarily cooperating.
  • 00:22:38.182 --> 00:22:39.817
  • Didn't turn himself in.
  • 00:22:39.817 --> 00:22:41.352
  • Of course that's never a great sign
  • 00:22:41.352 --> 00:22:43.154
  • That this person did not do it.
  • 00:22:43.154 --> 00:22:45.456
  • But of course when you have someone
  • 00:22:45.456 --> 00:22:46.958
  • Who's not fully admitting it, it's gonna go to trial,
  • 00:22:46.958 --> 00:22:49.093
  • It's gonna be an interesting time.
  • 00:22:49.093 --> 00:22:50.628
  • - well, and i want to bring up a point to that as well.
  • 00:22:50.628 --> 00:22:52.664
  • We had beverly on youtube say the fbi's a joke.
  • 00:22:52.664 --> 00:22:56.434
  • They didn't find charlie kirk's killer.
  • 00:22:56.434 --> 00:22:58.202
  • The dad turned him in.
  • 00:22:58.202 --> 00:22:59.470
  • - [logan] yeah, i've heard a lot of that.
  • 00:22:59.470 --> 00:23:00.738
  • - had high hopes for kash, very disappointed.
  • 00:23:00.738 --> 00:23:02.774
  • The boston marathon bombings.
  • 00:23:02.774 --> 00:23:05.109
  • The fbi didn't release the images
  • 00:23:05.109 --> 00:23:08.780
  • And photos of the individuals
  • 00:23:08.780 --> 00:23:10.148
  • Until three days after the bombings in boston.
  • 00:23:10.148 --> 00:23:14.018
  • And there was obviously a citywide manhunt looking
  • 00:23:14.018 --> 00:23:18.423
  • For these individuals and it took them three days
  • 00:23:18.423 --> 00:23:20.391
  • To get to the point where they released the photos
  • 00:23:20.391 --> 00:23:22.493
  • And then the photos, individuals said,
  • 00:23:22.493 --> 00:23:24.696
  • "we know who those people are."
  • 00:23:24.696 --> 00:23:26.297
  • And that led to what was a chaotic manhunt.
  • 00:23:26.297 --> 00:23:29.801
  • - [logan] yeah with them.
  • 00:23:29.801 --> 00:23:30.935
  • - one of them ended up being killed.
  • 00:23:30.935 --> 00:23:32.203
  • - [logan] and then they had a hiding in a boat.
  • 00:23:32.203 --> 00:23:33.905
  • - bombs being thrown outta the back of the vehicle,
  • 00:23:33.905 --> 00:23:35.907
  • Injuring people.
  • 00:23:35.907 --> 00:23:37.842
  • The way this happened was
  • 00:23:37.842 --> 00:23:39.110
  • They had this person in custody in 33 hours.
  • 00:23:39.110 --> 00:23:42.780
  • They did the steps.
  • 00:23:42.780 --> 00:23:43.848
  • When they exhausted their leads,
  • 00:23:43.848 --> 00:23:45.216
  • They put the photo out, someone recognized him
  • 00:23:45.216 --> 00:23:47.418
  • And was able to negotiate a peaceful handover.
  • 00:23:47.418 --> 00:23:50.888
  • - let's go ahead and take joe, who's calling in texas,
  • 00:23:50.888 --> 00:23:53.858
  • Who is watching on the salem news channel.
  • 00:23:53.858 --> 00:23:56.561
  • Kind of similar question,
  • 00:23:56.561 --> 00:23:58.029
  • But joe, i think it's okay to just say this as well.
  • 00:23:58.029 --> 00:24:01.165
  • - [joe] yes sir.
  • 00:24:01.532 --> 00:24:02.700
  • Well i'm just thinking why do they not fly
  • 00:24:03.601 --> 00:24:07.605
  • Surveillance drones at any large scale event?
  • 00:24:07.605 --> 00:24:11.309
  • - look, joe, i don't know that they didn't.
  • 00:24:11.309 --> 00:24:12.977
  • I don't know that they didn't at this specific event,
  • 00:24:12.977 --> 00:24:15.647
  • But we also do know that that is not uncommon.
  • 00:24:15.647 --> 00:24:18.516
  • I've been to many arenas and concerts
  • 00:24:18.516 --> 00:24:21.285
  • And stadiums recently
  • 00:24:21.285 --> 00:24:22.587
  • Where they are flying surveillance drones.
  • 00:24:22.587 --> 00:24:24.155
  • They are watching you.
  • 00:24:24.155 --> 00:24:25.556
  • They are running facial recognition scans.
  • 00:24:25.556 --> 00:24:27.091
  • A lot of times when you walk in
  • 00:24:27.091 --> 00:24:28.593
  • Look around the stadium as you walk in now.
  • 00:24:28.593 --> 00:24:31.629
  • They pretty much tell you, we're scanning your face
  • 00:24:31.629 --> 00:24:33.698
  • And we're gonna let you in or not let you in based on
  • 00:24:33.698 --> 00:24:35.600
  • Who you are and we know who you are. so that is happening.
  • 00:24:35.600 --> 00:24:38.269
  • - well, and the resources at a large stadium
  • 00:24:38.269 --> 00:24:40.571
  • That there's a billion dollar industry probably
  • 00:24:40.571 --> 00:24:44.208
  • At the individual stadium is a lot different
  • 00:24:44.208 --> 00:24:46.611
  • Than utah valley university.
  • 00:24:46.611 --> 00:24:48.579
  • This is a college that many people had never heard of
  • 00:24:48.579 --> 00:24:52.450
  • Until this event.
  • 00:24:52.450 --> 00:24:53.451
  • This wasn't even byu
  • 00:24:53.451 --> 00:24:55.086
  • Or the university of utah,
  • 00:24:55.086 --> 00:24:56.354
  • It was a place that seems
  • 00:24:56.354 --> 00:24:57.722
  • To have a smaller student population.
  • 00:24:57.722 --> 00:25:00.291
  • The campus footprint is smaller.
  • 00:25:00.291 --> 00:25:02.427
  • It's not something that necessarily
  • 00:25:03.161 --> 00:25:04.662
  • Would have as many resources and it's probably not used
  • 00:25:04.662 --> 00:25:07.765
  • To very large event on their campus.
  • 00:25:07.765 --> 00:25:10.735
  • - yeah, i'm not sure who would've been technically
  • 00:25:10.735 --> 00:25:12.136
  • In charge or responsible for security.
  • 00:25:12.136 --> 00:25:13.705
  • We know that there was failure there.
  • 00:25:13.705 --> 00:25:16.074
  • I mean there's no doubt on my mind that there was.
  • 00:25:16.074 --> 00:25:18.776
  • Now how you address that moving forward is
  • 00:25:18.776 --> 00:25:20.411
  • What we're gonna see.
  • 00:25:20.411 --> 00:25:21.479
  • (dramatic music)
  • 00:25:21.846 --> 00:25:23.815
  • - [jordan] as always, let me thank everybody at tbn
  • 00:25:23.815 --> 00:25:26.417
  • For providing this time to us at no cost so we
  • 00:25:26.417 --> 00:25:29.287
  • Can update you on the most important issues of the day.
  • 00:25:29.287 --> 00:25:31.989
  • From all of us at the aclj, thanks, tbn.
  • 00:25:31.989 --> 00:25:34.258
  • (soft dramatic music)
  • 00:25:34.258 --> 00:25:34.258
