I want to start today. We, The correction, if I get something wrong or if I am not clear or if I'm incomplete about something I always try to duties at the top of the show, I have no intention of hiding the corrections on the back page, so to speak, as is often the case with newspapers or other publications. So let me get right into that yesterday. I did this segment about Fox NEWS, propagandist, Tucker, Karlsson, siding with Vladimir Putin and so writing off Ukraine sing? Ukraine, isn't even a democracy and sort of soft Lee justifying or defending or excusing Vladimir Putin's invade

of Ukraine, and I made a lot of critiques of Ukraine in that segment. That are true, including that there are concerned, in Ukraine about women's rights, there is corruption. In Ukraine. There is a lack of true rule of law in Ukraine, a number of other concerning elements in Ukraine, but I didn't make clear that Tucker is wrong about Ukraine, not being a democracy. You, Ukraine is a d

receive, more or less and certainly way more than Russia is. If you look at the Freedom Index, Freedom House, DOT, org you'll see that Ukraine is a six the out of a hundred on the freedom index, so to serve a measure of democracy. Russia is a twenty, so sixty puts Ukraine as partly free. Twenty puts Russia as not free. So if I didn't make clear or I misstated, Ukraine is a democracy I'll be it of a flawed one and Ukraine is moving in the direction of being more democratic, whereas

recently Russia has moved in the direction of being less democratic. The ukrainian President Zalewski genuinely one election, a real election he's in over his head for sure there were some problems with the election, but it was, he won heap. He won. He did not control the election in the way that Vladimir Putin controls elections in Russia, and so this is a correction. I didn't make that clear. Yesterday. Zalewski is not an authoritarian, autocrat, Vladimir P, is, and that is a crucial difference between Russia and Ukraine. It doesn't resolve any other issue. It doesn't excuse the things that are not ok in Ukraine, but I appreciate the opportunity to make that correction. Yesterday, President Joe Biden spoke to the nation again about the situation in Russia and Ukraine with Vladimir Putin invading Ukraine on the premise that hey we ve got to keep the peace in these

independent regions that I've recognised as independent, even though they are in another country, and we already talked yesterday about why that entire framing doesn't make any sense. It violates a number of different international protocols The latest is, will what is Joe Biden going to do and Joe Biden is in a politically difficult situation, because, no matter what he does, the right is going to criticise him. The right is criticising Joe Biden, so let let's go back. First, the right attacked Biden when it came to Russia saying we should want to be friends with Russia. We should we dont want conflict with Russia. We don't want war with Russia, fine, ok, but insisting that Biden would be too harsh on Russia, whereas tromp was more friendly and open. Yet we know, then very quickly. The right shifted to sing Trump would have been so would have been harsher with Russia. So put never would have tried

this, if tromp was still, President Biden is being too weak with Russia, but that, at the same time, their sort of defending what Lattimer Putin is doing thing. I you know, PETE Putin seems to be going to places where they want him in Ukraine will get to that later and kind of defending what of Lattimer? Putin is doing and at the same time they are saying, while the sanctions that Biden is putting on Russia are not nearly strict enough, so they want all sides of this. I want to speak clearly to you. Joe Biden has put in place some sanctions and we're going to talk about. Those here is Biden yesterday, making it clear that this is an invite and by Lattimer Putin, take a look past few months. We have coordinated closely with our NATO allies and partners in Europe. and around the world prepare that response. We shall all along- and I've taught putting into his face someone a month on more than a month ago, that we would act together

and the moment Russia moved against Ukraine Russia. Is now undeniably moved against Ukraine by declaring these independent states So today, I'm announcing the first tranche of sanctions to impose costs on Russia and respond to their actions yesterday, have been closely coordinated with our allies and partners and will continue to rise. late sanctions of Russia escalates we're implementing full blocking sanctions on two large russian financial institutions, VIII B and their military back. Ripley Money, comparable sanctions on Russia's sovereign debt. That means we ve cut off Russia's government from western financed It can no longer raise money from the west and cannot trade in its new debt on our markets or european marketing. Starting to me and continued in the days ahead will also impose sanctions,

Russia's elites and their family members. Share in the crop gaze of the Kremlin policies and to share in the It is well because of Russia's actions. We work with joy terminate to ensure Nord stream to will not, as I promised, will not move forward as Russia contemplates its next move. We have our next move prepared as well rational paid, even steeper price if it continues Russian, including an additional sanctions. Ok and then Joe Biden going on to say that even What he has done so far is not the full scope of what he is willing to do. Take a look this. Is the beginning of a russian invasion Ukraine, as he indicated and asked permission to be able, due from his Duma, so let began to- So I'm gonna began to impose sanctions, a response. Far beyond the steps we and our allies and partners implemented in twenty forty?

If Russia goes further with this invasion, we stand prepared to go further as with sanctions. So the big discussion, the serious discussion in all these right wing gutter people, that are just going to criticise Biden, no matter what he does, I'm not really interested in engaging with that lets. Let's engage with a serious criticism. Witches are these sanctions going far enough and despite repeating that, the? U S won't send troops to Ukraine? Is the Eu S? Basically fighting. This is a proxy war. So let's take these two questions one by one. First of all, are the sanctions put.

Placed by the United States that strict and the answer is a sword, but not really. One of the real concerns about the very first set of sanctions was you're, really just sanctioning the regions that Putin invaded you're not really hitting Russians and Russia directly. Now, with the sanctioning of russian banks and more russian billionaires and their families and their assets and ability to move ass it. You are more directly hitting Russia proper, but you could go a lot further. Why isn't? By doing it? Well, you'd have to ask him: why he's not doing it, but it makes sense that you ve gotta, keep something off the you ve gotta keep something on the table. Rather incase Putin goes further because there is speculation at this point, and so far most of the speculation has been borne out to be accurate and in terms of what Putin has done so far

There is speculation that Putin's ambitions are greater than the Democrats in lieu HANS regions that so far he has sent troops to if Putin wants to push further into Ukraine up to and including the ukrainian Capital Keith, and wants to try to effect regime change. Installing a puppet government who knows what Putin's ambitions Are you need to leave something more on the table, geopolitically and from a foreign relations standpoint? It makes sense, you don't do everything yet, because you suspect Putin has not done everything yet, so we are getting to harsher sanctions and it, and it is logical to not get

oh fully out, because you ve gotta be able to bring down more if in one Vladimir Putin pushes further into Ukraine now on the proxy war question, I think we just have to accept that this time that the? U S is waging a proxy war against Russia now sometimes by proxy war. We mean both parties are using proxies in this case it is Russia pushing in to Ukraine and the Eu S using NATO sanctions and arming of Ukraine and supporting Ukraine as a proxy to fighting Russia directly and proxy wars are not objective the good or bad, but we have to recognise that, while Joe Biden said we're not gonna put boots on the ground were not draw up, we're not using drones, and at least

for the time being were not doing cyber attacks on Russia. We are engaged in a sort of war here, and that is not an endorsement or a criticism, but it is a reality, and that is something that were going to discuss more on tomorrow's programme if you thought it was wild and unprecedented when Donald Trump attacked his own former vice President MIKE pants for not trying to overturn an election that he lost. That is nothing compared with what Donald Trump did yesterday clearly Enamoured with Vladimir Putin and remember Trump has said he has fallen in love with dictators before, and then we fell in love right. That was about Kim Jong on Tromp enamoured with Vladimir Putin yesterday called genius. Putin's invasion of Ukraine using the pretext of recognised

seeing the independence of those two regions, smart and savvy guys trump is in love, Trump is in love, he loves Putin. and he loves the invasion. Trump appeared yesterday on the clay Travis and Buck Sexton show I dont know what that is but Trump clearly doing. Lots of right wing shows, and here is what he had to say and he's just smitten with lad a mere Putin Renaud. Russia has said that they are recognising two breakaway regions of Ukraine, and now this White House is stating that this is an invasion. That's a strong word. What went wrong here? What is the current argue, The oval office done that he could have done differently. Well, what went wrong was rigged elections. So, first of all, there is no question that Trump can answer without mentioning the big lie that he actually want. Ok, so, but let's that's not what we're gonna go

today and what went wrong with candidate that shouldn't be there. And a mandate as no concept of What he's doing I went in yesterday, and there was a television screens, and I said this is genius. Odin declares a big portion of the Ukraine of Ukraine, who declares it as independent, Oh that's wonderful! So Putin is now saying its independent, a large section of Ukraine. Said how smart is that an he's? to go in and be a peacekeeper? He is smitten. Now, some of you have pointed out trumps sort of seems to be using a tone that suggests he recognizes the cynical nature of what Putin doing, and I agree, I agree trip Trump sees what Putin is doing, but he still is so impressed. I'm not saying he likes it, but he's so impressed with how Putin has done this

That's the strongest peace force. We could use that on our southern border. That's the strongest peace force. I've ever seen there were more army tanks that I've ever seen they gotta keep peace already. Never think of it is a guy very sorry, I know inverary savvy very well very well by the way this never would have happened to us. Had I been in office and not even thinkable. This would never have happened But here is regarded, as you know, I'm going to declare a big portion of grain independent to use the word independent and we're gonna go out we're gonna go in and within a help, keep piece you gonna, say that's pretty savvy, so tramp, of course, an undertone of war, Putin is doing. I would not have allowed to happen, but he is just in love with

air pollutants. Can you imagine what Fox NEWS in the other Republicans would be doing if Biden or some other democratic leader called what Putin was doing? A genius smart, savvy trump is basically saying: Putin is super, smart, and this is all genius and it never would have happened if I was in the White House, but it is incredible that this guy was so brilliant does that he was able to do this and by the way, with with a lot of these right wingers, it is incredible how they are very soft on the violation of Ukraine's border integrity by Russia, while saying oh, my god, when it comes to the? U S go border. We ve gotta have a border. We ve got enforce it. There is nothing more set, a sacrosanct than the: U S, Mexico Border, but the Ukraine, Russia Border, it sort of up to prudence, opinion where, where that should be, incredible. This guy just loves these authoritarian, dictatorial autocrat, and you can hear it in his voice.

You can hear it in his voice is a little bit of sarcasm and there's a little bit of like a wow, what what how audacious? But it is a guy with genuinely impressed with the things Lattimer when is doing is that it's it's not a surprise. It's not a surprise. If your hearing something different in trumps voice there.

Asian of Ukraine by russian President Vladimir Putin over the last few hours, and things are changing so rapidly that it is hard to say this is where things are right

now, but at least over the last few hours, we have not learned of any further pushing to Ukraine. So far, Vladimir Putin has recognised separatists in the din, yes and low HANS regions as independent and then sent troops in keep the peace on the basis that these are now independent separatists who want to be part of Russia, Donald Trump. On an a pod cast interview, we played last segment thought that it was genius savvy and Smart Donald Trump also put out a written statement about what is going in Russia, Ukraine and, as usual, it is riddled with the same contradictions and confusions that we have seen from children. For a long time. I will read it to you Donald Trump Publishing this yesterday quote, if properly handled was absolutely no reason that the current that the situation currently happening in Ukraine should have when did all I know Vladimir Putin very well, and he would have

never done during the Trump administration what he is doing now, no way now missing in that it that there is already a lot to analyze there, and I know that it's easy to just see the things trump says in kind of right them off as the rankings of a lunatic and that that you would not be wrong to do that. But when he says, Putin never would have done this during the Trump administration. What trump wants you to believe is that Putin was scared of Trump, and so he never would have tried this during the Trump administration. The problem with that is two fold number one trump and the rights whole attitude to Putin during the Trump administration was. We should be nice to Putin, not that we should be tough with Putin, so trumps idea

That Putin wouldn't have done this during the Trump administration, because trumped so tough goes directly counter to the narrative they were giving us, which is Trump, is friendly and correct to be friendly with Lattimer Putin. That's number one. The second piece is its possible. Let's imagined that Trump is right. Putin would never even thought of this during the Trump administration. One possible reason why Putin would not have thought of the wooden would not think of doing this during the Trump administration would be that he feels as though he doesn't need to, because the world attitude to Putin is much more friendly thanks to Trump and one foreign policy analysis. What one section of far

and policies analysis about why Putin is doing this now is well with Trump gone and Biden here. The global community is more hostile to Russia when it comes to NATO expansion when it comes to whatever Nord stream etc, and so potent feels he needs to do something So I'm not saying any one of these analyses is the right one, but there are many reasons why Trump could be, in a literal sense, correct that mistake. The reasons behind it. Ok, let's continue back to the quote. Russia has become very, very rich during the Biden Administration, with oil prices doubling and soon to be tripling in quadrupling now. Trump is trying to link Biden to gas prices going up and, of course, gas prices as oil prices rather started going up during the Trump administration. Due to the resurgence in demand, as Cove had started to wane- or at least we thought it was starting to wane

and so that increase started under Trump and it simply continued under Joe Biden President's have very little that they can do about gas prices and oil prices. There's the strategic petroleum reserve- we ve talked about that, but it is. It is not even fair to say that it is related to Biden, but Donald Trump wants you to think that it is. Lastly, the sanctions are insignificant relative to taking over a country and a massive piece of strategically located land, so here Trump is, is acting tough. Now it

begun oil prices are going higher and higher Putin is not only getting what you always wanted, but getting because of the oil and gas surge richer and richer the. U S was energy independence under the Trump administration we actually still are. We did that story Monday and independence. We never had before oil prices would have remained low now what a mess our country as in so just about everything, trumpets saying there is wrong, lie or deceptive and it should be interpreted as such, but the biggest sort of most obvious hypocrisy from the right at this point in time is they were always talking about. We shouldn't be super tough, with with the with Russia. Democrats want, is to have a bad relationship. They want to be strictly one a sanction. They want

tough and at the same time now they're saying well to binds not being tough enough and we talked about the sanctions earlier. I do think early, they were weak, they are getting tougher. I also think you need to leave something on the table in case Putin does push further into Ukraine. We discussed that earlier, but trumps foreign policy analysis worth basically what we paid for it, which is nothing. Let's move on now to some other right wing figures who were just gushing or defending or very impressed with blood, a mere Putin's invasion of Ukraine, and it is absolutely fascinating to see how the standards that the right demands be applied to the? U S, Mexico border

the very same right ignores in the context of Putin, ignoring the sovereignty of ukrainian borders, even though there are numerous accords that say actually Russia has to respect the ukrainian borders, and you really have to see this to believe it. Yesterday we looks it looked at clips from the day before, in which Tucker Karlsson, softly defended Putin's, Asian, by saying Ukraine's, not even really a democracy, and ignoring the fact that, when it came to the U S, Mexico border Tucker sang a very different tune will now we have more examples. Candice Owens now says: listen. If we just listen to Putin, we know that this is actually

not really Putin's wrongdoing Candice Owens tweeting yesterday quote, I suggest every American who wants to know what's actually going on in Russia and Ukraine read this transcript of Putin's address. As I've said four months, NATO under the direction from under direction from the United States is violating previous agreements and expanding eastward. We are at fault now, multiple things. There. Ok, first of all, Candice Owens sing, just read the transcript bathing listen to. But if you don't speak Russian, you have to read a translated transport You just listen! If you want to know the truth, listen to what Putin said two nights ago: anybody who saw that and had a transcript with them that they read, along which I did. What should immediately recognise that it was a confused dishevelled all over the place, Putin

rambling, nonsense, sickly and completely failing to justify? any legal or moral way, his invasion of Ukraine, but can do so in the same just list. Into what the authoritarian said and take him at his word and then you'll understand. What's going on, that's number one number two. I have already told you. They are falsely repeating this idea that NATO is violating agreements by expanding eastward. The I've already talk to you guys about this, and you can go back and look at my clip from last week about this. It is not true. It is not true that NATO had committed to not expand eastward. There was initially a verbal discussion made during the she nations decades ago about NATO, not expand eastward and not ever considering adding Ukraine. Those were never codified. and they were removed before anything was signed now weakened.

A reasonable conversation about. If your Russia do you consider the eastward expansion of NATO and the consideration of maybe someday Ukraine will be part of NATO, NATO. If your Russia, could you consider that a form of aggression sure we can have that absolutely something we, do but this idea that NATO is just in the wrong here. There was an agreement. There was no such agreement. Next, let's go to Charlie Kirk, Charlie Kirk sort of also softly runs interference for Putin. By saying I don't know guys, I mean! Maybe it's an invasion, maybe it's not, but they seem to kind of be welcoming Putin there What is prudent feel so empowered the entire Western world is putting sanctions right now on Russia, as they call this invasion there will might be. I'm not the I'm. Not the person to deter We're not as an invasion on accession. It feels as if Putin is going into places that want him

it voted overwhelmingly to be part of it. It's a family dispute that we shouldn't get in the midst of that's for certain, but why does Putin feel as if now is the perfect time right? Well, he definitely waited for the Olympics to be over for other cheaters on his aim that we weren't even on the Russian Federation to lose the Russian Olympic Committee to be over with you. Dont want the spectacle in the midst of the Olympics. He did annex Crimea after the Olympics in two thousand and six years as an extra two dozen ten. He has a tendency to do this right after the Olympics or make a big moves. After that, Georgia was after the Olympics. Will we get those dates figured up, but what is prudent feel so

let's say compelled at this particular moment to move why? Why even get close to this? So in a time when the entire planet is locked down due to the chinese corona virus. Finally, that the world is reopening, there's one number in particular, that Vladimir Putin is looking at that his entire economy is organised by not as they petrodollar, ok so consider that Charlie Kirk from turning point. You are say, has been ranting for years about. Mexico must respect our borders. They are our borders, they are internationally valid, they must be respected, but Putin doesn't have to respect Ukraine's borders. Even though there are actual agreement saying you have to respect Ukraine's borders, come on guys, come on

and then lastly, here sort of a bonus, this is Foxen friends, Foxen friends actually did they admit. Putin is doing a bad boy, but they say it's Joe in small remote is calling those troops peacekeepers. That's that's the frankly guys peacekeeper one man's invaders, another man's peacekeeper, but do too where regions have been disputed for eight years and they're, not really breakaway, they were take and, along the same time, when Crimea was taken off and frankly reason that it did so precarious for Ukraine is even Belarus and then on the northern part of its a controlled its control by Russia. So on all learn. How do you think I'd thing? Is you, but they don't created strike? Ghana gets a second biggest country in that part of the bread basket in those those Don boss region, is huge, Gee resources, manufacturing resources. It's been coveted by Vladimir.

And you listen to what he said and here the words he used in that speech for no different than any other autocrat of the Soviet Union. The true are being set so that so far there basically right here, that's what wants to raise, got one playbook. Any member states is going to it again. The important playbook he's done this before winning when he went in to when everything happened with Georgia, Bangladesh experts are wondering if she's gonna start, but these regions worry, he wants to go farther and farther and then eventually take over the Black Sea, China and Taiwan or watching. He knows how Biden handle Afghanistan that was a disaster to embassies, he's lost the Afghanistan embassy, and now the ukrainian Embassy has moved to Poland when he was vice. President Biden Gauzy, and an even we know, that's why this is happening guys. It's because bang I see happened when Biden was VP

Biden, left Afghanistan so now Dat's. Why Putin is doing this? So, no matter what no matter what this is either something that's fine or it's something! That's not fine and its Joe Biden. Small. that's the analysis from right wing media will have these clips on our instagram, which you can find at David Pachmann Show. It is a brand new year.

So we knew that at some point, Kyle written House riding high on the heroism of his not guilty verdict as per the right after he killed a couple of people,

would somehow come back and be used by the right in some way that maybe he would understand- and maybe he would not understand, but he was going to become a tool of the right, at least until his celebrity sort of run. out. It already may be running out actually because he has now started an organisation that no one seems to care about, and he barely seems to even understand what it is about to we're. Gonna look at a clip and you almost start to feel bad, for the kid because he's just getting used, he doesn't know. What's going on, he doesn't know you know down from up and day from night Newsweek reports, Kyle Rittenhouse launches a fund to finance lawsuits targeting media lies, Even that is more coherent. Then, how written house explained it to Tucker Karlsson on programme which will gonna get you in a moment. This the new donation fund, where you donate and then

they will hold accountable. Media outlets. an individual's. It's called the media accountability project and I guess what it will be used to do is to finance lawsuits. Now, I'm gonna play for you, the of having to play for you, a clip of Kyle written House being interviewed by Tucker Karlsson on on Monday night and written house seems to have no idea. What's going on, I mean just absolutely no clue what this even is at one point he nervously drink water and looks off camera. He seems confused and Tucker Karlsson is like trying to help I'm almost explain what it is that he's doing, and so we can come to only a couple of conclusions, one of which is he has no idea what they're doing or number he's in way over his head. Alright, let's take a look before call thanks so much for being on tonight? I can't think of many people who ve been

at the receiving end of this much sinister lying from so called news organisations rise, you have. How are you going to respond? Well, Tucker. Thank you for having me worse me and my Team have decided to lie the way he has a team. Now, that's that's even I would love to who who is on his team? That's advising him the media accountability project as a tool to help fund raising hold media accountable for the lies, a sad and deal with them in cork. Wow Kyle. That's really somethin tell us more. Please. Interesting. So the idea is it maybe like the Covington Catholic as you will be, and if you're watching you just saw him, but in a panic, look off camera. Ok, suing news organisations that maliciously lie about people who are in the news right is at the plant

we're gonna be holding them accountable, Tucker Gue He has no idea what he is doing and in a word were laughing at it because it so of it's impossible to avoid laughing. But we really should almost like feel bad that now he's clearly being taken advantage of, and it's not even clear whether if you donate money to this media ability, project team, up v, media, how nobility project it's not clear, the money really will be used for lawsuits. I mean rubber. This is a very common right wing rift witches trumpeted it after the twenty twenty election. From said, hey this, we I need your help. I need you to donate. I need you to donate so that we can fund recounts and legal challenges and flip some states, and if you looked at the fine print at least half the money was not even potentially going to be used for that and of course they didn't do.

The recounts, they didn't do any of it. You just you, gave money Trump money and Trump did what he wanted with the money, and it very well could be a similar thing here, but in terms of written house clearly being taken it and a job, he doesn't have any idea what they're doing he doesn't know how they're gonna be doing it. He doesn't know what how any of this stuff works and I am not ignore The irony that Fox here Tucker is promoting Tucker by bringing on Kyle is promoting someone who Who says, I want to hold the media accountable for lying when it is Fox NEWS for over a year has well liars about the twenty twenty election and covered and vaccines is fox. News who arguably should be held accountable and

that irony I mean it's not that it's lost on Tucker, it's just completely missing, even from any notion of a consideration. he might have, and so this is the latest scam. Kyle Rittenhouse at the end of the day, is probably being used. I don't think he knows. What's going on, you know the right loves to say: Biden doesn't have any idea. What's going on, he doesn't know what he's doing. nobody's actually signing Collaret and has no clue what this is about and if you were actually subjected to real questioning here, it would get very bad at the end of the day, he's basically a kid. I guess legally an adult. Now I think now is eighteen, but this is basically a clueless kid being lionize because he got away with killing a couple people and now is being used even further to try to push the goals that he barely understands of people who are using his. What I think is gonna be ultimately shore.

Lived fame. Are we want to hopefully be done with this question of? Is the former President Donald Trump going to be able to hide records, phone records and other records from the lead up, who, in the immediate aftermath of the January twenty January, sixth, sixth, twenty twenty one Trump Riots, the Supreme Court is now rejecting Donald Trump Bid to hide the riot records. Is this finally going to be the end? I really hope so. First of all remember the context. This is about riot records being provided to the January Sixth House committee that is investigating the Trump Riots ABC News, CBS News, rather reports, the Supreme Court on Tuesday turned away former President Donald Trump legal fight with the White House, with the House Select Committee investigating the January sixth assault on the. U S, capital

bringing an end. We can only hope, bringing an end to the former president's quest to stop investigators from accessing reams of documents. From his final weeks in the White House, Trump asked the Supreme Court in December to take up his appeal of a decision from the federal appeals court in Washington DC, which rejected his efforts to shield the documents from lawmakers and found Trump provided quote no basis for it to override President Biden decision not to uphold this prize predecessors claim of executive privilege over the records in rejecting the former presidents request, the decision from the? U S, court of appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit remains in place. In addition to asking the Supreme Court to review the lower court decision Trump requested, the justices stop stop the transfer of records from

national archives to house investigators. They declined to do so last month and the Select committee received more than seven hundred pages of records sought by the panel earlier this month. So is this finally the end. I really hope so because I am so sick of this. He was president. Those are our records. These are not trumps documents to control. These are our records and they should go to the committee investigating this and, of course, you are innocent until proven guilty. The trump has not been charged with anything. He gets an opportunity for all of that stuff in a colloquise setting like this, which is not a court of law. This is just to show One would naturally wonder why would you be so anxious for those records not to become public if you have nothing to hide now there are two explanations, and I want to be fair. One explanation is: he has something to hide

completely reasonable, colloquial explanation we might all come to without saying that means he is legally guilty of anything he just. He has stuck to hide, find the other one and it could be. This is that it's a really effective legal strategy. You always push back and you always obstruct everything. Eve really simple requests. Uncontroversial requests, even if later it'll be reviewed, There was no criminal wrong doing there or whatever, and that makes it harder to figure out. When is Trump really being sketchy, and really has something to hide out. What I mean by that is imagine that there were ten requests made of Donald Trump and trumps. Really only concerned about one of those requests, and the only one that he fights you're you're telegraphing, where investigators should really be paying attention

signalling. Where is the wrong doing really hidden? If there are ten requests made, and you're only worried about one of them, but you try to obstruct all ten. You are making it more difficult to determine which of these ten things should we really be focusing on, and so I think that that is completely plausible, that that's just the legal strategy here and that's why Donald Trump is doing this in terms of trumps. A willingness to put records out there remember that he was just about to publish those tax returns back and twenty fifteen and then twenty sixteen Aceh. is the IRS audit was done and we never got those tax for tax records. So we know he never has any intention of publishing anything last thought in

in being an adult and seeing trumps behaviour forget about during his presidency, but just over the last year since he's been out of office and still being impressed with him and thinking that he's an alpha and thinking that he's smart and a good business person and a good decision maker, it says almost more about the p well, but still support the guy. Then it does about trump himself. I send me your thoughts. You can find a sun facebook at Facebook, dot com, Slash David Pachmann, show after this break we're gonna, hear. merit garland and much more.

calm, slash, pachmann. The link is in the podcast notes. Okay, so one of the questions for like a year- I guess, but particularly in the last three to four months, is what is happening at the Justice Department. Under these stewardship of attorney general merit Garland. Why is there not investing Sean criminal investigation going on of at least some of the things that the former President Donald Trump did. We have now received confirmation from the iter. General merit Garland that the Justice Department indeed received information about the classic. I'd records found among the documents recovered from trumps moral logo and that the Justice Department is looking into it now this colloquially means that they are investigating whether this would technically be called an open. The criminal investigation is a question mark and pr report

Attorney general merit. Garland said the Justice Department is aware that classified material has been found on trumps, moral logo property, but didn't explicitly confirm a federal, Oh, is under way. Let's take a look at the video clip. This is during a press conference, the audio not great, but I think we will be able to make out what's being shut question last weekend. Ass, a war crimes reveal classified documents. The Justice Department investigating How do I asked my information not doing as the alchemist said in a letter that was sent to the Congress of the networks has informed the Justice Department, listen communicated with it, and we will do what we always do under these circumstances. Look at the facts on law and take it from there. So you know it he's using very careful language. He says we have received the information and we

you're going to do what we always do, we're going to look at the facts and we're going to look at the law. Now I think, he's being very careful here. He is not saying we have opened a federal in vain. The because that's very specific and formal language. He is saying we are investigating and at this point, who is this merely a semantic question? It may be, because I see no interest whatsoever in seriously law. at the possibility of indicting Donald Trump. I mean I just I just don't see it so. The fact that he's informal, saying, there's an investigation without calling it a federal probe, I think, is not ultimately going to be super meaningful. Now, of course, at this point there would be a real question for all the people who, back in time,

Sixteen said, I'm not voting for Hilary on voting for Trump, because Hilary can't be trusted with sensitive information. Hilary can't be trusted with classified information or emails, the private e mail, server, etc, etc. Those people should now be saying, while, if those were my concerns with Hilary, I never should have voted for Donald Trump, but if you actually go and talk to them the vast majority just excuse away this behaviour and say it's not really that bad or trumpets justified in doing at her. It's a witch hunt or the claims or are untrue or whatever the case may be. I have even seen online, some conservative- I don't really concerned some trompe in reactionaries. Saying Trump did everything right here: trumps own people found the classified documents and call the national archives that hey guys, we ve got the stuff. You should come and get it really quickly. There is no evidence that that's what took place right now,

did the narrative they want to create is Trump, had no idea about these documents and from staff on them and immediately of their own volition, called the national archives and said coming at the documents. Of course, there is no evidence that that is the story, but at the end of the day I dont believe merit. Garland has any interest in indicting a former president, and the fact that they are generally investigating without confirming and open federal probe is a distinction. But I don't think it will make a functional difference in terms of what we are to expect, if you think it Garland might have an appetite for indicting trump. Let me know I've, No evidence to suggest that that's the case, we getting ready for sea pack. See pack is the conservative political action conference earlier in the show.

Earlier in the week, I told you about some of the people that would be speaking. Donald Trump will be speaking. Donald from Junior will be speaking Kimberly. Gill foil will be speaking it. Oh I truly Kirk and different members of Congress Tool see Gabert will be speaking in sort of a shock, the some because she was a Democrat and ran as a Democrat, but, of course, is extremely reactionary and fits in much better with the Fox news crowd than with any leftists. I know she will be speaking at sea pack, so the speakers are one side of it up. My call John pointed out to me that he was looking at the sponsors list foresee pack and a lot of them are the usual suspects, but there's some pretty weird stuff. So you know, if you look at the sponsors page, you see that Fox nation is sponsoring. That's Fox news streaming platform. You see that some of the big spun, Those are the japanese conservative union that might sound weird, but that there is actually a big Trump Japan Movement of the Republican

National Committee is sponsored? You need a whole bunch of other. You look at partnering sponsors and the epoch times which are a right wing media outlets getter, which is like a right wing, twitter, they're, all sponsoring you, then look at supporting sponsor it's a lot of the common ones, heritage, foundation and other think tanks, tea party patriots, action on and on you look at contributing sponsors in its turn point, USA and others. You then look at participating sponsors and you still see some names, you recognize right, side, broadcasting network and others, and then you go to exit leaders and there's a whole list of stuff that we don't really recognize and one of them in particular caught my eye caught Johns. I- and he told me about it and it called enemies within the church. This is just unbelievable, and we could pick any one of these and do this. But let's just look at this one

means within the church is, I guess you would call it a documentary film and what they seem to be arguing is. The church has now been infected with left wing. Propaganda! The film which were going to look at the trailer of here feels that the institution of the church is too liberal. And it's basically going communist just like they feel our colleges half this. This is incredible who would fund this trash? Look at the trailer, let's listen what happened to the church to the living

powerful, transformative nation shaking Christianity quarter of trying to do is completely demolish western civilization to rebuild it in a just society. How do you break down American Christiana? I think the problem today and our culture, as many of our words, have been cohabited and stolen dumb down and reversed social justice is sold as something bad. It isn't

the core rights. This is distilled, be a porn over the church being too liver. Liberal understand that that's the core here theory is solved as something that it isn't right. Miss have com mass of hard. Why call breach victimization and always leads to vengeance, advised us against me against. I want my pound of american churches today, with the universities were tedious. Pretty heavily marxist are not quite there yet about well on the wife, many the salmon reason. Babo colleges are definitely forty there. That message that they're, going out and taking the world is not unique to repent of your sin.

Christ instead the message it should actually have issues they are under the weight of racism or sexism or homophobia, and then we need to unify them together. Gay, twenty nine reuse, pastor in New Jersey, oh nothing more dangerous than a gay youth. Pastor, guys these people are really out there, and this is the new target, the church, liberal churches, is the new enemy astray.

I also ask you major replanting history life together for the rest of our lives, which were not entirely sure that looks like ceilings Street and he just getting married when he is alive, and I shall make decisions with us. The future damage of what we are doing now is just being normous. The entire fabric of family, personal wealth. Private, probably also now understand that when you stake out the position that college now colleges, liberal indoctrination. You send your kids, the college gonna be a real problem. There can't do it Regular elementary school now known, Adele kids are being taught about slavery, and you got home school christian homes, schooling, Churchill, churches, fine right, get weeded, that's the safe place for this idea. Now the churches are becoming marxist.

social justice places and though you gotta keep your kids out of that. They are going in the direction of the only place. That's ok is some small. Like enclave, that is, quite frankly reminiscent of of Jim Jones right, did the drink. The Kool aid people at the end of the day, that's what they are building here, you're only safe in your little cult. Even the churches dangerous now everything is the state they believe. This thing is: God they don't define justice, the same wage bill column, knowledge is gonna, be an equality are going to be out of college area marxist Justice, so that's just wicket and again we could. We could look at a time of these. That's one spot exhibitor at sea pack, the people who feel

Churches are become and they use that date they use on all sorts of communist imagery. There is well if you were just listening. The church has become a communist marxist social justice and tree way into dangerous leftism. According to these folks, now the funny thing. As if this actually had the effect of weakening the lobbying power of churches. It might actually be a good thing. The problem is what their advocating as get out of those churches come to the right churches make sure they remain fully fun, etc. We're gonna be covering see pack and it's going to be insane. The sponsors are insane the exhibit

a radical, it's all crazy. But, as I said yesterday, we don't have this level of organisation on the left. We we just don't we end, we need it and part of why the country keeps going to the left, but they keep winning. Elections is because they have this level of organisation. They have this level of funding and it's not at some point. It will hurt left. It is hurting the left. It has hurt the left a for a very long time. We have a voice mail number, and that number is to one nine to David. P. Here is a very fair question about electric vehicles: let's take a listen, even I just have a question about electric cars. I'm all, or the only thing is that electricity bills produced with coal and natural gas and fossil fuels, so how

is it that it's gonna save anything that I feel like or doing is removing the fuel from the actual car does to a power plant in someone's neighbourhood Oakley. If there is a better answer here is Is that your first of all? It is not true that all electricity comes from fossil fuels, but most electricity still does come from fossil fuels, although it is diminishing in the United States, I've spoken to energy activists and technologists about this exact issue you plug in the electric. Our great the car drives around and there's no emissions, but that electricity came from fossil fuels. First of all, you can power electric vehicles with renewables sourced electricity, I have solar panels and then I've got the electric car so

it's coming from the sun. Now the solar panels have some of a carbon footprint, that's true, they were manufactured and they were shipped, but it is lower but you can power electric vehicles with renewables, you can generate electricity with solar and wind, you ve, so got non renewable, but more efficient, geothermal new sir, if nuclear I'm not a knook, throw nuclear activists, but I recognise that if we build new nuclear now, it would not be like what there was fifty years ago at a book I find we don't even to get into it. Most of the electricity is not coming from renewables, but you can get trinity from renewable. So if you're driving around in a gas powered car, you're burning fuel and as more Christy comes from renewables, you're still driving around in a gas powered car. There's no way to make the gas powered car renewable. If you have the electric car as electricity transitions,

way from fossil fuels. More and more vehicle miles are being powered by renewable energy. Ok, that's number one! Second, even if electricity is coming from say yeah, I uttered out what's up some kind of fossil fuel, if the fossil fuel is all being burned in one place. Rather than coming out of a million vehicle tail pipes, you still have a better chance figuring out how to capture the emissions from those fossil fuels all at the power plant rather than having to think What to do with a million different tale pipe stutter driving around, so you can adjust pushing up the energy ladder. You're, obviously completely right that right now, most electricity still does come from fossil fuels, but it doesn't have to and more importantly, that's going to transition overtime. The that's the end

Serbia we we ve interviewed energy experts on this and I've spoken to them, but personally and then that's essentially the way it works and The transition that we need to keep pushing is for more and more electricity is by the way, the same reason that if you have an electric oven once the electricity comes from a renewable, you ve closed the loop you have a gas oven, no matter what your burning fossil fuels and that's all The reason why one of the big moves

it now in renewable energy is, let's start retrofitting an entire, but go building by building you put solar panels on the roof you put in an electric heat pump, many split type system for heating, you put in an electric oven, it's now and you put in a car charger, and then you you plug in your car. You ve now gone from the roof to the garage so to speak on electric and it can come from renewable energy. So that's why they're so much focus on that right now we have a great bonus show for you today, New York, as the pandemic wanes wants to get people writing the subway again. One of the reasons a lot of people aren't going back to the New York. Subways is because there are lots of people living in the subways, and there are more incidents of sucker, punches and people being pushed in front of trains, being reported on. I don't know if it's happening more bids been reported on it more and New York City wants to deal with that.

How are they going to deal with that? Is it going to be a press if we're going to talk about that number to Democrats have again reduced a bill to eliminate these tax subsidies. When sports teams build new stadiums, maybe will pass this time we will discuss. and we have a new study that claims that when there are and your ground laws enacted. Homicides go up. Eleven percent, not justifiable uses of guns for self defense. Legal homicides, illegal homicides go up. Eleven percent were going to talk about that on the bonus show.
