Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz and Former Acting DNI Ric Grenell discuss election integrity on 'Hannity'
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Got to keep that in mind
developing tonight, Facebook and
Twitter blocked president
trumps account down
twitter signed a violation of
civic integrity rules and
further violations will result
in a permanent suspension.
Rick lets go back to the
argument.
These are things that you looked
into when you were acting
director
as it relates to abuse of power
and corruption and FISA
applications based on a phoney
dossier, even when they knew it
was phoney.
Nobody was held accountable
for the peaceful protestors
today. You want to understand why
they are there.
You have these issues that
contribute to this.
First, let me just say Sean
thank you for having tonights
show without a commercial break.
I will get yelled at
after the show
thanks a lot.
Thank you for that
commitment.
Second lets start by say week
ago, have to condemn this
violence
its a sad day.
We had the moral high ground
condemning all of the violence
last summer and into the fall.
We have to condemn this
violence.
The other side didnt do that
they pick and choose when they
condemn it.
We have to be consistent.
I am proud of the fact we have
a bunch of conservatives that
have been loud and critical of
this terrible violence.
Every person should be
prosecuted.
I think transparency has to be
our friend.
We have to figure out who these
people are and get to the bottom
of it:
Washington, D, DOT, C doesnt, like
transparency,
they like to pretend they have
a little information, and you
have partisans on both sides
that spin that information.
We must demand transparency.
Transparency in the election
will be helpful to help the
public understand what is at
stake and whether or not the
vote was real.
You have to come clean and give
us the information that people
are asking
when we see dead people are
voting.
We know that was a fact, and yet
we were dismissed
the frustration these peaceful
protestors have are focused in
the right direction.
They are complaining about the
process.
The bad apples must be found
out prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law.
Jason. You followed a
lot of the issues that we never
got: equal application under the
law.
No, we got millions of
Americans who feel
disenfranchised.
They never saw lady justice
equally apply the law.
I concur with Dan and Rick.
It was wrong when they were
trying to tear down our. U dot s
courthouses
I saw Kamala Harris out there
fighting to raise money to get
those people back out on the
streets.
I saw Kamala Harris fighting for
cashless bail.
I wonder how the Democrats feel
about it today.
What happened at the capitol
today is wrong.
Its more american than anything
to protest, but to smash into the
capitol is wrong.
Those people should be
prosecuted.
The last time I heard there were
only thirteen arrests
there better be a whole lot
more
until you put people in jail for
the violence on both sides of
the aisle, no matter what their
political persuasion people are
going to react.
The last thing I have to point
out, if you want to have action,
dont fall into the trap of
Chuck, Schumer and Nancy Pelosi
and think we have to federalize
this.
You have to work on the state
legislatures and the state
houses
thats, where you hold people
accountable,
thats, why we need to focus to
Institute change
Rick. The lack of
curiosity on this campaign,
Wisconsin and Michigan LAW
ignored,
Pennsylvanias constitution,
ignored
eyewitnesses. Nobody wanted to
hear from the whistleblowers
no partisan observers.
You know my list,
no concern at all
from Democrats.
No concern about Hillary
Clintons, dirty dossier or Joes
quid pro quo.
No Democrat spoke out against
the deep state and FISA abuse
and the dirty dossier and the
election issues
they dont say a word.
No, that build into
frustration,
overseeing Nevada,
threw out one hundred and fifty eight thousand votes and
a week later to reinstate it,
nothing changed and there was no
coverage nationally,
just a little coverage locally.
This is the problem
when you are faced with an
injustice and you call it out
and the institutions that you
believe are supposed to do
something ignore you. You
create a real credibility crisis
and we have to confront that.
I want to say that Jason is
right.
We have to do this on a state
level.
Each state has to challenge on.
