Brad Johnson it is December the 4th 2019
00:03
the impeachment nonsense is steamrolling
00:06
in multiple directions very difficult to
00:08
track can you give us an update on where
00:10
whatever is going on is that and what
00:13
meaning it has and ideally where it’s
00:15
going sure I think it’s actually oddly
00:19
enough convoluted and what’s going on
00:22
but straightforward and what they’re
00:23
actually attempting to accomplish today
00:26
is the first day of impeachment hearings
00:30
for the Judiciary Committee so this is
00:34
over to Jerry Nadler who we’ve talked a
00:37
little bit about before Jerry Nadler is
00:39
one of those guys you know not not the
00:43
not the swiftest boat in the river kind
00:45
of guy and the fact that he’s ended up
00:47
in Congress but even to begin with was
00:50
kind of a fluke he was a state senator
00:54
or state legislator from his home state
00:58
for a number of years had been around a
01:00
long time had run for Congress three or
01:02
four times multiple times he had drawn
01:04
and just got smooshed you know by
01:07
anybody who ran against him because he
01:09
just wasn’t very popular he could keep
01:11
winning at that small local level but
01:13
couldn’t go beyond that and then there
01:15
are camp a campaign came up where there
01:17
was a very strong candidate for Congress
01:19
and he ended up dying six months before
01:21
before elections and so they were
01:24
scouring around for anybody that could
01:26
kind of jump into the breach and having
01:27
run through four times before now there
01:29
was the only guy there so they put him
01:31
into that it was a very strong
01:32
Democratic you know district so he
01:37
easily won and has remained in that seat
01:39
ever since so that’s the origin of
01:40
Nadler it was always you know mediocre
01:43
at best and so the first day of hearings
01:46
today he’s he’s not doing well he did
01:48
his opening statement and part of the
01:50
problem is the Republicans on that
01:51
particular committee there’s some really
01:53
sharp guys on there so they’re ripping
01:55
him off this is going to be worse than
01:58
the previous set now at the same time
02:00
from the previous intelligence committee
02:03
hearings there now drafting articles of
02:06
impeachment and so they’ve set out
02:08
preliminary notes on on what those items
02:12
of impeach
02:12
and it’s you know that it’s the same
02:14
stop you know he oh he did bad he tried
02:16
to force Ukraine to investigate Joe
02:20
Biden and those sorts of things which of
02:23
course the question really is and what
02:25
they’ve tried to cover up is you know
02:26
what’s the excuse for Biden’s son
02:29
getting over three million dollars from
02:31
this company when he didn’t produce
02:32
anything for it had no ability to
02:34
produce anything for it and as a you
02:36
know recovering drug addict oddball guy
02:39
and so the you know how they have to try
02:43
to cover the all that up which you know
02:45
is this becomes public and if there’s
02:47
you know if they allow any of this to
02:49
really go far at a certain point all of
02:51
that has to come out and can only hurt
02:53
their guy Biden who’s probably it looks
02:56
like right now I’m going to win the
02:57
nomination for the Democratic Party dub
02:59
for president so this show trial ago
03:04
sorry I’m sorry interrupted are you
03:06
saying the guy who loves to have kids
03:10
jump on him well as Legare turns me
03:12
blonde in the Sun is the Democrat front
03:16
well you know in a way I don’t blame
03:17
them they really would be wasting their
03:19
best people to lose against Trump in
03:21
2020 well that’s true I mean Biden you
03:25
know he he’s just it’s it’s comic relief
03:30
to watch Biden in action the things he
03:33
says are just it it it reminds me of
03:37
that speech when he was vice president
03:40
about and he said President Obama likes
03:44
to you know walk softly and carry a big
03:46
stick and he says but you know Obama has
03:48
a big stick trust me on this and it’s
03:51
dude have you have you listened to what
03:53
that sounds like as you say it you’re
03:55
assuring us about his big stick okay so
03:58
I think I just he doesn’t hear what he’s
04:03
saying and doesn’t recognize yeah I like
04:06
having little kids jump on my lap and
04:08
all these things and touch them the hair
04:10
on his leg and it’s just weird you know
04:13
weird guy but yes it I I think I think
04:17
Joe Biden is tone-deaf completely
04:19
doesn’t understand how things look and
04:21
sound and this thing with his son who
04:23
has
04:24
just no apparent reason to be paid large
04:27
amounts of money by anybody and you know
04:29
and and you know he gets in trouble too
04:31
by going to a strip club and throwing
04:33
around money and using credit cards and
04:36
other people’s names and all this stuff
04:37
that’s the kid and snorting cocaine in
04:39
this club and a lot of reports about
04:41
that type of behavior bye-bye hunter
04:43
Biden so all of this is going to come up
04:47
and I don’t think Joe Biden recognizes
04:49
how damaging that sort of information is
04:50
if it comes out if they really pursue
04:52
this Ukraine thing now one of the
04:54
aspects I but the underlying importance
04:57
of this is that that what they’re really
04:59
doing is they know they’re not going to
05:02
impeach President Trump they know it
05:04
they’ve seen their numbers go down as
05:06
these numbers have go down for
05:08
popularity for impeachment
05:09
they’ve speeded up the process because
05:11
they’re trying to get this all in and as
05:13
I’ve talked about many times they’re
05:15
trying to get this all in before the
05:16
other shoe drops so that it’s it’s over
05:20
and in the bag so they can trot it out
05:22
as part of their defense going on oh now
05:24
you Republicans with this report that’s
05:26
going to come out by John Durham US
05:28
Attorney General Durham US Attorney John
05:33
Durham your your your only accusing us
05:37
of this stuff because you know we know
05:39
you’re guilty really here even though we
05:40
couldn’t get a conviction we know you
05:42
know you’re only saying that as a
05:43
revenge that’s that’s the defense
05:44
they’re building but now the the other
05:47
shoe has started to drop we’ve got the
05:49
IG report going to come out on the 9th
05:51
in five days which it’s not going to be
05:53
hugely significant but it’s gonna be
05:55
very interesting with a lot of the stuff
05:56
that’s going to be in there so that’s
05:58
going to be grist for the mill to start
06:00
things going the Durham report is what
06:02
counts
06:02
but yesterday a lot of reporting began
06:06
out of Ukraine and a number of these
06:09
people out of Ukraine that are the
06:11
high-level people have now started to do
06:15
some news reporting here in the United
06:17
States one American news network has
06:20
come out with some interviews it started
06:22
last night at 7:00 p.m. and it’s going
06:24
to be a series of reports into this
06:26
coming weekend I they’re still
06:28
apparently editing material and haven’t
06:31
decided how many special reports will
06:33
come out in this series but maybe three
06:35
four five six perhaps
06:37
and what this has done is they’ve
06:39
started to interview and just pick the
06:40
whole Ukraine thing apart so while
06:43
they’re trying to do while the Democrats
06:45
are trying to do the impeachment now
06:48
this is being run by Giuliani Rudy
06:50
Giuliani who is the attorney for
06:52
president Trump and he’s put these
06:54
connections together and running it
06:57
through one American news network and so
06:59
while the while the Democrats are doing
07:01
that Giuliani for president Trump is has
07:04
started this news push back so he’s
07:06
bringing the real guys out of Ukraine
07:08
brings them here they’ve already come
07:10
and gone
07:11
and these have all been now these
07:13
interviews have all been recorded and
07:14
they’re being edited and pumped out
07:16
first one last night and this stuff is
07:18
major devastating to the Democrats so
07:22
they’re going to get in their hand their
07:24
rear ends handed to them in these in
07:27
these impeachment hearings that are
07:29
going on now and at the same time the
07:31
news cycle is beginning to work back
07:33
against them so I urge everybody to
07:36
follow those news things that one
07:37
American news network is is putting out
07:39
the reporters name is Chanel reown RI o
07:42
N and the interviews with these
07:45
different people but leadership out of
07:47
the Ukraine is like I said it’s
07:49
absolutely devastating to what the
07:52
Democrats are trying to claim so we
07:54
finally for the first time now kind of
07:56
gotten to parody of effort and I would
08:00
say that started yesterday we’re kind of
08:02
at a new plane a new level if you will
08:04
of where we are in the scheme of things
08:07
up until now it’s been the Democrats
08:09
show salvo after salvo day after day
08:12
then pumping out pumping out pumping out
08:14
pumping out propaganda and I used the
08:16
word specifically propaganda because it
08:18
wasn’t based in truth if we’ve seen the
08:20
Muller report had nothing the everybody
08:23
that was the that testified in the
08:25
Intelligence Committee when pointedly
08:27
point-blank asked by the Republicans do
08:29
you know of anything illegal the
08:30
president the United States did they all
08:32
say no and every one of them has said no
08:35
not just one all of them have said no so
08:38
we know it’s all propaganda there’s no
08:41
fact behind any of it it’s just twisting
08:43
manipulation of facts and and
08:45
conversations to suit their political
08:47
ends so now on
08:48
the other side of it finally we have
08:50
parity of effort one side based strictly
08:53
in truth and evidence in fact and the
08:57
other Bey
08:58
you know hearsay a propaganda to end and
09:00
propaganda techniques so one is easily
09:03
going to float to the top and defeat the
09:04
other so that’s where we find today is
09:07
really you know day two of that being in
09:11
existence so this is very interesting
09:13
over the next week or two or three that
09:16
you’ve got these reports coming out of
09:18
Ukraine from all of these people that
09:20
I’ve just talked about
09:21
you’ve got the IG report coming out and
09:23
then so you’ve got a month or so or
09:25
perhaps more for all of that to
09:27
percolate and get disseminated out to
09:29
the public and then on the heels of that
09:31
the Durham report comes out of the
09:33
investigation of the Feist abuses there
09:35
will be indictments out of that maybe
09:38
not as many as we would all like to see
09:40
but there are going to be indictments
09:42
out of all of that so it’s a very
09:45
interesting time and over the next week
09:48
– we’re going to need to come back to
09:50
this because so much is going to be
09:51
happening that it’s it’s hard to keep
09:53
track of as you mentioned let me add one
09:56
more thing and everyone please follow me
09:58

10:01
this and and all of these others
10:05
interviews that we do are going to be
