0:00

so per Bloomberg Rupert Murdoch is now

0:02

testifying that Donald Trump's

0:04

son-in-law Jared Kushner was potentially

0:07

given some inside information during the

0:09

2020 election and you won't believe what

0:11

Tucker Carlson had to say about Donald

0:14

Trump based on new information revealed

0:16

in the Dominion lawsuit apparently

0:19

Rupert Murdoch is a quote unquote

0:21

friends with Jared Kushner and basically

0:24

as debates approached or debates passed

0:28

or Biden's team submitted ads in the

0:31

2020 election Rupert Burdock would kind

0:34

of give Jared Kushner a little bit of a

0:36

friendly advice like hey don't be too

0:40

much of a bully on Biden hey this is

0:43

what the Biden ads are going to look

0:45

like going forward now keep in mind

0:47

Dominion is the Dominion voting machines

0:50

company Dominion is actually suing the

0:55

fox Corporation Rupert Murdock is the

0:57

owner of that he was actually seen at

0:59

the Super Bowl with Elon Musk they were

1:01

sort of in the box together but anyway

1:03

along with Rupert Murdoch's wife

1:06

apparently Fox is being sued for

1:08

potentially amplifying The Conspiracy

1:10

Theory related to the rigging or

1:13

stealing of the election Dominion is

1:15

claiming defamation saying that a lot of

1:18

districts have now canceled the use of

1:20

dominion voting machines and that their

1:22

money their income has basically been

1:24

negatively impacted because of the work

1:26

of Fox News despite overwhelming

1:28

evidence that the election was not

1:29

rigged and there wasn't a fraud if you

1:31

were watched me back in 2020 you

1:33

remember I actually covered this quite

1:34

well uh in my opinion quite well quite a

1:37

lot I should say more generically but

1:39

you know what I covered for example the

1:41

Georgia phone call with Donald Trump

1:42

which Donald Trump suggested was a

1:44

perfect phone call it was not a perfect

1:47

phone call okay it was really clear that

1:49

Donald Trump was basically begging to

1:51

quote unquote find just an extra 12 000

1:54

votes that's all he needed was twelve

1:56

thousand votes right and the pressure

1:58

was pretty pretty blunt and pretty

2:00

obvious it was actually a really

2:01

interesting phone call to cover you

2:02

could probably still find it on YouTube

2:03

if it's not censored meet Kevin Donald

2:05

Trump Georgia phone call something like

2:07

that but anyway what's interesting is

2:09

you're getting a lot of these quotes

2:10

coming out like Sean Hannity calling

2:13

Sydney Powell and her theories about the

2:15

election uh basically crazy calling your

2:18

quote an effing Luna lunatic Danbury

2:21

sorry Dana Perino is saying that these

2:24

these election theories are total BS

2:26

insane and nonsense Sean Hannity saying

2:28

you have to be careful though you don't

2:29

want to quote unquote piss off the base

2:31

that's actually something that I fail I

2:33

feel like a lot on on Twitter is I feel

2:35

like my the people who watch me are very

2:38

much in the middle right like the 80 of

2:40

people in the middle but I do worry

2:41

because the people on the far left and

2:43

far right get pissed off when I try when

2:45

I cover you know things I think matter

2:46

to to the middle uh and uh sorry about

2:49

that but I think it's important and

2:51

that's probably the curse of being in

2:52

the middle but anyway there's a trial

2:53

set for April here and what's actually

2:55

very interesting is information that's

2:57

that's coming out that just came out

2:58

last night was is the following two

3:01

months after the election and just days

3:03

before January 6 this is before January

3:05

6th Fox News host Tucker Carlson texted

3:08

with an unknown Fox employee about how

3:11

badly he wanted to stop covering Trump

3:13

saying quote we are very very close to

3:15

being able to ignore Trump most nights

3:18

Carlson texted on Jan 4th I truly can't

3:22

wait I hate him passionately Carlson

3:25

added now that's actually really

3:26

interesting because Tucker Carlson has

3:29

regularly been seen as as basically like

3:31

this this extreme uh Fringe uh uh by

3:35

especially people on the left and I

3:37

actually a couple years ago made videos

3:39

on Tucker Carlson saying dude like some

3:42

of the stuff you're saying about like

3:44

the cares act or the stimulus programs

3:46

or whatever is just wrong and and I was

3:49

really confused as to why why narratives

3:52

were really spun in One Direction I

3:54

actually think I have to say I think

3:56

he's kind of come back or or his his

3:58

department or whatever have come a

4:00

little bit more towards the middle from

4:02

from the fringes uh you know I I don't

4:05

know if anybody agrees with that but

4:06

that's sort of a thesis that I have

4:08

apparently a producer who works with

4:10

Tucker Carlson also wrote The Following

4:13

quote Dominion machines were used in

4:16

Ohio and Florida Trump won those states

4:19

did they forget to rig those machines or

4:22

was that all part of the plan and then

4:25

of course Tucker has also complained

4:26

about this idea that people actually

4:28

believe this election rigging stuff and

4:31

this is bad for the country in fact

4:33

these are his quotes that the election

4:34

rigging is quote bad for the country to

4:37

have this much doubt and suspicion this

4:40

is exactly why people believe in

4:41

conspiracies we need some sort of audit

4:44

to settle it to the extent that it can

4:46

be settled now remember defamation would

4:49

really require proof of malice by the

4:51

Fox News company and as long as there is

4:54

some kind of belief that people within

4:56

fox actually believed at least to some

4:59

degree some of the election fraud stuff

5:01

they were covering it'll be very hard

5:03

for a Dominion lawsuits to actually in

5:05

my opinion win a defamation lawsuit

5:07

against a news company organization

5:08

unless of course it could be proven

5:10

Beyond A Reasonable Doubt although this

5:13

is civil so it doesn't it doesn't go to

5:14

the level of reasonable doubt you just

5:16

have to get to the preponderance of

5:17

evidence but anyway if you could get

5:19

enough evidence to say that fox knew the

5:23

election rigging story was fake yet they

5:25

were still covering as if it was true

5:26

Dominion could actually win but that's

5:29

sort of the burden they face in a civil

5:31

case so that trial is in April and that

5:33

trial should be extremely interesting

5:35

especially since Rupert and Murdoch went

5:37

as far as saying that if uh the election

5:40

was overturned the 2020 election was

5:43

overturned we would see riots like we

5:46

have never seen before so it's almost

5:49

kind of like the owner of Fox News knew

5:52

that covering uh the election and

5:54

potentially leading to an overturning

5:56

could lead to basically like almost a

5:58

near collapse of democracy is sort of

6:00

what he was implying I thought that was

6:02

that was pretty uh pretty remarkable uh

6:04

so we'll see

6:06

someone here writes Carlson will put

6:08

anything in his mouth so long as it

6:09

makes him money I mean I do think

6:11

there's there's an element of of

6:12

reputation that's very important too

6:14

right I mean if you say something that's

6:15

wrong I think most people are reasonable

6:18

and you kind of want to sort of align

6:19

back to the truth because if you keep

6:21

getting exposed as being wrong then then

6:23

eventually people can't trust what

6:24

you're saying anymore uh and that

6:26

becomes an even larger issue right so

6:28

anyway I think this is interesting

6:30

because I have to say his coverage

6:32

Tucker Carlson's coverage of what's been

6:34

going on of uh sort of with with uh Jan

6:37

six has been interesting and

6:39

enlightening you know I I imagined some

6:41

of it of the Jan 6 footage is is

6:43

potentially picked uh in you know and

6:47

certain things are shown and certain

6:48

things aren't I mean that's just

6:49

journalism and media same thing as like

6:51

the Twitter files you know I would

6:52

expect that in the Twitter files like we

6:54

only see the juicy stuff not necessarily

6:56

everything that was actually going on at

6:58

Twitter right but that's okay because

7:00

sometimes that juicy stuff alone could

7:01

be all we need to be like wait a minute

7:03

this is a little sus uh and so I do

7:07

think I mean if you probably saw my

7:09

Tucker Carlson coverage yesterday I

7:11

actually went a step further and when it

7:13

came to that quote-unquote on Shaman I

7:16

actually picked up the uh indictment and

7:19

the allegations of fact for why the Q

7:23

Anon Shaman was sentenced to 41 months

7:25

in jail that's actually not something

7:27

from Fox or from any mainstream media I

7:30

just thought hey look if he went to jail

7:32

I can pull up the justice department

7:33

files on that so that's what I did and

7:36

when I covered that yesterday I actually

7:38

did find something very strange that it

7:40

seems like yes he shouldn't have been on

7:42

the capitol grounds I said that in my

7:43

video yesterday the Q and on Shaman

7:45

should not have been on the capitol

7:46

grounds I agree

7:48

but that in my opinion being on the

7:50

capitol grounds does not justify a 41

7:52

month sentence now violent entry into

7:55

the capital that might but the Justice

8:00

Department's documents say oh the Q on

8:02

Shaman was charged essentially with

8:04

violent entry but in the actual document

8:07

it shows he just walked into the

8:09

building and I'm like that's not really

8:11

consistent with what seems righteous

8:14

right I don't really care if you're on

8:15

the left or the right I agree with you

8:17

you shouldn't have been on the inside

8:19

the Capitol building right I I feel like

8:21

I agree with most Americans on that but

8:23

to say he violently entered when in the

8:25

same Justice Department complaint you're

8:27

saying he didn't seems a little odd now

8:29

another thing that is also very

8:31

interesting uh is this the first breach

8:33

occur was near where the members of

8:35

Congress would be locked in we initially

8:37

let me let me actually back up just a

8:39

little bit more because I think just two

8:40

minutes of this is interesting and then

8:41

we'll move back into some Finance tops

8:43

but anyway take a look at this

8:45

if anyone was Tark Johnson was here's

8:48

more of our sit-down interview with him

8:49

[Music]

8:51

Ms Johnson thank you for joining us and

8:53

thank you for having me so from the

8:54

outside here's how it looked we now know

8:56

that huge parts of the federal

8:58

government were aware that there was

9:00

going to be something big happening at

9:01

the Capitol on January 6th they knew

9:03

they were going to be big demonstrations

9:04

there

9:06

um and they prepared for that but the

9:08

Capitol Police on which you served for

9:10

22 years did not seem prepared at all

9:13

and of course that would be the front

9:14

line in preparedness

9:16

was the Capitol Police prepared for that

9:18

day the front line officers and

9:21

supervisors were not prepared for that

9:23

at all

9:25

I by the way completely agree with that

9:26

remember I covered the election uh or

9:29

sort of the the riots rather on jn6 for

9:32

10 hours that day and I was blown away

9:34

with how unprepared the Capitol Police

9:37

was

9:39

so you had no idea it was coming uh we

9:41

knew that there was going to be a

9:43

demonstration that day but we had no

9:45

idea that we were going to be facing

9:47

what we face on that actual day so

9:49

things start to fall apart people stream

9:51

in the building you call upwards in the

9:54

command chain help me you don't get a

9:56

response what do you do next so around

9:58

two o'clock

10:00

um it may have been a little bit after

10:02

two o'clock

10:03

I hear a officer say that the capital

10:06

was breached so I ran inside of the

10:08

building

10:09

I ran you know to to assist I knew that

10:13

um that location of where the that first

10:16

breach occurred was near where the

10:18

members of Congress would be locked in

10:20

we initiated now that's also really

10:22

important now while this is not the

10:24

officer who shot Ashley Babbitt it's

10:28

worth noting that

10:29

through what we're hearing from this

10:31

Capitol police officer

10:33

we know that the Capitol Police know

10:36

where

10:38

the Congress men and women are holed up

10:40

basically and it's basically in the case

10:44

of Ashley Babbitt one person or one or

10:48

two people potentially with a firearm

10:49

versus you know an unknown number of

10:52

people with an unknown

10:55

uh weapons cache so to speak and now we

10:58

ended up finding out that basically none

10:59

of the rioters were actually armed some

11:02

people were Silly and walked into the

11:04

capital with like zip ties and and

11:06

bulletproof vest but but at least from

11:08

the extent of coverage we could see

11:10

nobody actually had weapons we know that

11:11

now in hindsight right but if you're one

11:13

officer standing in front of what

11:15

appears to be a mob breaking down your

11:17

door uh and and your task with

11:20

protecting congressmen and women who

11:22

were holed up in in a room a door right

11:24

behind you you know it sets up a really

11:27

difficult moment because it's like now

11:29

do you have to potentially take

11:31

somebody's life to send the signal like

11:34

that is the line that you don't cross

11:35

and uh it's it you know obviously we we

11:39

can never know what it's like to have

11:41

been in that exact mode situation

11:43

because you know Ashley Babbitt was

11:45

somebody who's in the air force uh uh

11:48

somebody who you know it's it's one

11:51

person one woman compared to to a man

11:54

and their arguments on made on both

11:56

sides about like shoulder life have been

11:58

taken you know I'm not gonna go into to

12:00

depth on that because it's really a

12:02

different video topic but I find it's

12:03

very very interesting when this

12:05

particular Officer says we like the area

12:08

that was breached was basically where

12:10

everybody was hiding and and the level

12:12

of fear there combined with a lack of

12:14

preparation is a disaster that's

12:16

probably the real issue in my opinion is

12:18

it comes down to if if the capital had

12:20

properly prepared for this maybe that

12:23

severe loss of life that happened not

12:26

only at the actual Riot with one person

12:28

being uh basically trampled one person

12:30

being shot but then multiple people

12:32

afterwards either committing suicide or

12:34

having heart attacks uh maybe a lot of

12:37

that could have been prevented so I

12:39

think the preparation was a disaster I

12:40

think that's really where the finger

12:41

gets pointed anyway let's keep listening

12:44

lockdown so that means the chamber doors

12:46

on the Senate side and the house I would

12:48

lock so that means the members of

12:49

Congress would be safe inside that those

12:51

locked rooms yes so I ran over to the

12:55

house side first to make sure that those

12:57

those were locked in I ran over to the

12:58

Senate side to make sure those doors

12:59

were locked so I asked over the radio

13:01

and I say something to the effect that

13:04

um we need direction we have hundreds of

13:07

people inside of the building what do

13:09

you want us to do we need some direction

13:11

I got I heard no response

13:14

no response so you know um at that

13:18

particular time how could nobody respond

13:20

this nobody responded at some point you

13:22

put on a Maga hat

13:24

yes now um I think we have it I think we

13:27

have the actual magazine yes we actually

13:29

do have the mega hack I have it here in

13:30

plastic so here it is

13:32

um j6 it says High label the j6 so tell

13:36

us why you put the hat on and how that

13:39

was related to your suspension that's

13:41

what got me national attention was the

13:43

win of the mega hat they were officers

13:45

that we had a distress call that they

13:46

were approximately 10 or 11 officers I

13:49

can't remember the exact number were

13:50

trapped at the top of the Rotunda steps

13:52

so

13:54

um I elicited the help of some CDU

13:55

officers to help me go up the steps and

13:58

I kept yelling that all the way up the

14:00

steps giving people high fives trying to

14:01

make it up steps to get to the guys and

14:03

as I was going down there was a um

14:06

demonstrator on I believe he was on my

14:09

right side of me so he reached over I

14:10

didn't know what he was doing I didn't

14:11

know if he was going to hit me and he

14:12

put the mega hat on my head so um so as

14:16

I was still trying to walk down the

14:17

steps then he asked for the hat back and

14:19

I said well I would like to keep it

14:21

because you know the highest want to

14:23

help me yes your past support through

14:25

the crowd yeah exactly so the capital

14:28

places by definition nonpartisan it

14:30

serves both parties in the Congress it

14:32

protects members of both parties 100 and

14:35

it has to be that way in the wake of

14:37

January 6th you saw

14:40

what looked like partisanship

14:43

at the Capitol so I'm just going to

14:45

summarize the rest here out of respect

14:46

for your time basically this officer was

14:49

not interviewed by the January 6

14:51

committee and Tucker Carlson's like wait

14:53

a minute like why is there a

14:54

partisanship why didn't you get

14:55

interviewed blah blah blah blah okay

14:57

fine so look bottom line out of all this

14:59

Jan six was a complete F in disaster

15:01

that officer is freaking brilliant for

15:03

putting on a Maga hat basically because

15:05

as stalker said it's like his passport

15:07

through the crowd to not to basically

15:09

not potentially get killed him he

15:11

doesn't know what he's up against I mean

15:13

this hasn't happened before there's no

15:14

precedent for this like if you're a cop

15:16

and your job is to protect a building

15:18

and all of a sudden there are you know

15:20

500 people uh inside of your building

15:23

and thousands of people outside your

15:24

building and windows are being broken

15:26

and and you know congressmen and women

15:28

are putting on evacuation hoods and

15:30

hiding under desks you know it it makes

15:33

for a little bit of a stressful day I

15:36

think we can all agree with that uh but

15:38

anyway some of this I think it's very

15:40

interesting very interesting insights

15:42

I'm fast excited to see what's going to

15:44

happen with the April Dominion lawsuit

15:46

so we'll pay attention to that we will

15:49

also as more information comes out or

15:51

whatever we can learn we'll touch on j6

15:53

mostly because it's it for me it was

15:56

such an impactful day and uh I I'm I

16:00

feel very conflicted uh because I I

16:02

personally you know when I covered the

16:04

j6 riots on the day it occurred I felt

16:08

uh very offended right I I thought this

16:11

was sort of an attack on on America on

16:14

our institutions but then again you know

16:16

I saw it through the coverage that I was

16:18

able to see on Twitter and the

16:20

mainstream media and now

16:22

seeing at least some of the perspectives

16:25

of officers from the inside or footage

16:28

from the inside I I'm kind of I've catch

16:30

myself feeling confused so you know by

16:34

no means do I want anybody to think that

16:36

I you know I'm like a mega apologist

16:38

here or on the other hand you know I'm

16:41

calling this for sure like oh my God

16:42

it's the Insurrection you know like I'm

16:44

not trying to take a stance there trying

16:46

to cover sort of in the middle here it

16:48

it just it feels conflicting right and

16:51

it just it makes me feel more jaded

16:53

towards both the media and the

16:55

government and and I I feel sad about

16:57

that because I don't want to be more

16:59

jaded but anyway uh so let's move on

17:03

so now we're going to talk about does

17:06

the recession even matter does our

17:08

session even matter now I think this is

17:12

actually a particularly interesting

17:13

piece it's a little it's on the shorter
