Speaker 6: Network criticizing the murder of Charlie King. To go after
free speech is not a legacy. I believe Charlie King
would have wanted.
Speaker 7: Anyone that has been terminate at the FBI has been done,
so the question ail to meet the muster the constitutional.
Speaker 1: I would give on the visual capabilities.
Speaker 8: I'm going to borrow your terminology and call your entire career.
Speaker 7: In Congress a disgrace to the American.
Speaker 8: You're playing your time all you want.
Speaker 4: Mister Chairman, would you accuse yoursel The gentleman has no touch.
Speaker 5: Chairman would monitor witness not to insult members.
Speaker 1: Gentleman has no time with mister German. Just lady will
remember the point of order?
Speaker 9: Could the gentleman be extended in additional twenty seconds to
complete his thoughts? Why don't you try serving your constituency
by focusing on general violent crime in this country and
then number of pedophiles that are legally sanctuary cities in California.
Speaker 7: I worked with you on that.
Speaker 1: California. It was a contentious hearing Jim Jordan House oversight,
and it was just on and on like that. That
was cash. The first one was Jerry Nadler retiring. Jerry Nadler,
New York Democratic play that one again because it went
kind of fast.
Speaker 6: It's because the murder of Charlie King, to go after
free speech is not a legacy. I believe Charlie King
would have wanted.
Speaker 1: Okay, Jerry Nandler's retiring. He says it's time for a
new generation to come in, by the way, which reminds me,
let me pull that story up from here. Welcome, my friends,
Wednesday edition of bost Nervous Dress Show. There was a
story yesterday Donna Brazil Eleanor Holmes Norton should not run
for re election. Brazil was Eleanor Holmes Norton's campaign manager
back in nineteen ninety. She says she's now the oldest
current House member, no longer the dynamo she was at
a time when DC needs the kind of energetic representation
in Congress that she used to provide. So and then
you have that Jerry lad a little bit. I think
that kind of speaks discussing the murder of Charlie King.
Words are a big deal right now. They're everywhere discussion
about words, how people are using words. Illinois Republicans finally,
my friends are calling for a recall of Governor JB. Pritzker. Now,
whether it gains any steam or not, I do not know.
Don't know what the dynamics are. I'll have to look
closer with the numbers are in the state by Democrat
Illinois Governor JB. Prisker. Fact checked by conservatives on social media,
he claimed that he never called Republicans Nazis. Lawmakers on
both of the isles are trading barbs in the aftermath
of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. This is completely false.
Pritsker said, I've never called Republicans Nazis. He said at
a press conference, Well, you can say that, but here
is a statement that he made in February. In February, JB.
Pritsker said, the authoritarian playbook is laid bare here. They point,
speaking of Republicans, they point to a group of people
who don't look like you and tell you to blame
them for your problems. If you think I'm overreacting in
sound them serving the alarm to you, soon consider this.
It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days,
eight hours, and forty minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic tyranny.
He went on to say requires your fear and your silence,
and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage. So gather your
justice in humanity, Illinois, and do not let the tragic
period of spirit of despair overcome us when our country
needs us the most. And he has made other remarks,
and of course we have heard, we have played a
lot of his remarks. He's not the only one. He's
not the only one you have heard that you have
heard Trump is hitler. I don't how many times we've
heard it. If we compile them from all the different sources,
it would be a monumental task. Since twenty sixteen, because
the words hitler, as you know, fascist, I'm not telling
you anything. Don't know how they've been thrown around at Republicans,
and I keep saying they've been thrown around for a
long time. I didn't even know how long they've been
thrown around until I stumbled upon, of all nights, last night,
I stumbled upon a documentary series from the CNN Documentaries.
I know it's CNN, but the series is an interest
to me because of course I'm always interested in historical documentaries,
and it is a series devoted to looking at presidential races,
over the centuries of America's history, and it looked at,
of course, the Abe Lincoln Stephen Douglas contest for the
Senate race there which led which led of course Lincoln
to put Link in a position, even though he lost
that Senate race, in a position to elevate toward the presidency.
To the presidency. Other races, they looked at Nixon, which
of course always fascinates me, but one in particular grab
my attention. And I watched this entire documentary, and when
I tell you, at it came a point, I was stunned,
and I was stunned with a light bulb went off,
and I said, oh, my gosh, this is how long
this has been going on. Ladies and gentlemen. Many of
you know. The year was nineteen forty eight. The presidential election.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt Democrat, hero Democrat Icon had passed Harry Truman,
of course, unprepared to be president because he had only
been a member of the Roosevelt administration still for just
a few months, kept totally in the dark, had only
met with Franklin Dela No Rogosevelt as vice president, only
had two meetings with him, and yet he was thrust
into the role of presidency. It was a time that
Republicans and this would be, by the way, the last
time Republicans held power until the days of Rush Limbaugh.
Republicans won the mid term elections and that was for
the first time in years, and proceeded to block all
of Harry Truman's presidential initiatives. Harry Truman, you know, they
considered him kind of a lightweight. He was considered, apparently,
if you believe what this documentary was saying, kind of
a lightweight, a dunce in many ways, what didn't have
the greatest speaking style. Finally shows up at the Republican
at the Democrat Party nomination. They put his speech on
it two in the morning, but he electrified the electrified
the gathering, and that began slowly to mark a turnaround.
Although the polling was wildly in favor of Thomas Dewey, Republican,
elite Republican, telegenic Republican had a nationwide following and name recognition,
while Harry Truman was still trying to come out of
the shadows of being nothing in terms of name ignition.
The campaign goes on. They talk of course about this
in list which you see all the time. Those are
you to study history. They get on the trains and
crisscross America. That was a big deal in nineteen forty eight.
And what happens is Harry Truman has two things happening
on this While he's in the train. The DNC back
in Washington is sending him APPO research on Dewey, on
other figures that are in Republicans. But another thing happens there.
They're sending him detailed analysis of every stop that he's making,
and Truman's able to talk to the issues right to
the people that he's talking with. And this is all
getting national coverage. Back then, there's no Internet, There was
no wrestling bog program, there was no you know, three
networks covering everything. And the news what an hour of
news a night. That's it in some cases, wasn't a
twenty four hour news cycle. And meanwhile, I didn't even
know until the documentary that there was a competing train
tour by Dewey because it's never discussed. At first, the
crowds were huge for Dewey, but he's doing nothing but
talking platitudes. They're playing it safe. They didn't want to
say anything. He is the clear front runner coast to
the election. Long story short, Harry Truman gets desperate. The
polls are looking horrible, but he's starting to inch up
in the polls, he's starting to gain traction. He goes
on the offensive. What does he do? Harry Truman compares
Dewey to a Nazi. And this, my friends, happens right.
Don't forget. We're in nineteen forty eight, three years, three
years after World War Two. It is fresh. No one
would dream of calling an American pretty much or suggesting
that a Republican candidate running for president, a fine man,
decent guy by all accounts, is a Nazi. He did
it nineteen forty eight, a speech in Chicago, of all places,
speaking of printer in Illinois, and speech is particularly one
given in Chicago. In October nineteen forty eight, Harry Truman
drew parallels between Nazi Germany and his Republican opponent economic policy.
He claimed that when a small, powerful group controls the
nation's economy, they install a frontman to rule the country.
He then compared that to pre war Germany, where a
small group of industrialists and bankers. Hint, hint, you know
what that means. Some of you really know what a
small group of bankers industrialists put Adolf Hitler in power.
How the medium went at it. New York Times president
likings Dewey to Hitler as fascist tool. The headline focused
on the most incendiary aspect of the comparison, leading many
readers to believe that Truman had explicitly called Dewey a Nazi,
although he had not. You go back to that, Pritzker, Well,
he didn't explicitly called Republicans a Nazi? Or what do
people think now? My point in braining is it's the
same playbook, folks. They've been running this playbook on us
since right after World War Two. Then he went after
they do nothing Congress, which kind of resonated. Now, by
the way, there's one thing else that was part of
the playbook too. After after Harry Truman started calling called
him pretty much, you're a Nazi. You Republicans are a
bunch of Nazis in today's lingo. Thomas Dewey, instead of responding,
did a poll among the RNC, the elites of the party.
Should I go on the attack. Should I attack him
vociferously for this slight and you know what they told him? No, No,
it's not presidential. No, no, don't go back on the
attack with him. Let it go, put your tail between
the legs and take it. And Democrats have been using
the tactics ever since, and for many years, Republican presidents
up until Donald Trump have been also following the playbook.
And what is upset the entire left in America is,
for the first time, maybe since nineteen forty eight, a
Republican president is not taking it and is fighting back
with full force against the hatred that has been spewed
against this party since nineteen forty eight. Got to take
a break, James Golden, We'll be right back to go away.
Speaker 4: The Right Shower with James Goldish on the Red Apple
Podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden Entertaining and Informative.
Speaker 5: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: Let me just give you a little PostScript with this interview,
this documentary from CNN. So Truman ends up, of course,
becoming the first Democrat to pretty much call Republicans Nazis
and fascists, something they've been doing ever since he victorious
in the race, stunned the entire nation. Afterwards, what was
the slogan attached to his style of politics, calling the Republicans, Nazis,
fascists them hell, Harry, and that has been echoed as
the slogan that Democrats embraced, cheering the campaign waged by
Harry Truman against Thomas Dewey. Give them hell. I would postulate,
ladies and gentlemen, that Democrats have been giving America hell.
They have literally and figuratively been giving America hell in
many forms ever since Jerry has quit Ben and Jerry's.
It might surprise you to learn that I actually agree
with Jerry. I'll talk about that and more when we
get back. Whatever you do, keep it right here, do
not go away. Both normalis rush our fans, It's just
hour in American media.
Speaker 4: The Rush Hour with James Golden on the Red Apple

Speaker 5: On the Red Apple podcast Network.
Speaker 10: So Charlie Kirk died three days ago, and since then
I have seen a lot of content from him that
I've never seen before, and a lot of it as
him talking about his faith. And I've seen his content before,
but only him debating the college kids. I've never seen
anything else. I didn't even really know he's religious like that,
and brother. Ever since he passed away three days ago,
every time I see a video of him talking about
his faith, bro straight water works like I can't it's
almost hard to control. And I've had a lot of
people talk to me about God personally. I've seen a
lot of people talk about God online. And I've also
been following this whole Charlie Kirk situation where I've seen
everything that's happening, and I've seen a lot of his
other content and none of it makes me emotional except
when he passed away that was really sad, but nothing else.
For some reason, whenever he's been talking about God, I
am just trying to not lose control. So it's just
got me feeling really weird. And I've had a few
people telling me like, maybe it's God trying to reach
out to you, which sounds crazy to me because I've
never believed in God ever. I've always been like, that
doesn't exist, it's not real. But it doesn't make sense.
It's like, why would I get so I'm not an
emotional dude.
Speaker 1: At all, So for me to get like.
Speaker 10: Uncontrollably emotional about this thing that I don't even believe in,
it's like, well, why is that happening. It doesn't even
make any sense to me at all. So I got
a Bible, I got this this little thing right here.
I don't know if it's the correct version. I've heard
that there's a lot of different versions of it. I've
heard people say that this is better than the other.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 10: And I've also heard that it's hard to translate it sometimes.
So your boy is going to be on chat GBT.
You're trying to figure it out and go through it.
But I guess this marks day one of me trying
to read the Bible and see what it's about.
Speaker 1: James Golden Snurbley, Ben and Jerry's, ladies and gentlemen. I'm
going to let me here because I've got so much
audio for you to hear. But then I want to
talk about some other things, so I don't know, we'll
just go. Ben and Jerry's co founder Jerry Greenfell, is
leaving the ice cream brand after forty seven years. Says
that the independence at once had to speak up on
social issues has been stifled by the parent company, now Unilever.
Ben Cohen, the Ben of Ben and Jerry's, posted the
letter on social media platform x some liberals still go
on to x for more than twenty years under their ownership,
Ben and Jerry stood up, spoke out in support of peace, justice,
human rights, not as abstract concepts, but in relation to
real events happening in the world. He wrote that independence
existed in no small part because of the unique merger
agreement Ben and I negotiated with Unilever, one that ensrined
our social mission values in the company's governance, structure and perpetuity.
It is profoundly disappointing to come to the conclusion that
that independence, the very basis of our sale to Unilever,
is gone. Greenville said the loss of independence was coming
at a time when our current country's current administration is
attacking civil rights, voting rights, the rights of immigrants, women,
and the LGBTQ community. Standing up for the values of justice, equity,
shared humanity has never been more important. Yet Ben and
Jerry's has been silent, sidelined for fear of upsetting those
in power. It easily it's easy to stand up and
speak out when there's nothing at risk. The real test
of values is when time's challenging and you have to
and you have something to lose. So Jerry's leaving, and
they're leaving because they say that Unilever won't let them,
or the implication is that Lever will not let them
conduct business the way that they want to conduct business
speak out about social issues. Now, I don't eat Ben
and Jerry's ice cream. I think maybe there's one. I
don't eat stuff with eggs in them, so because I
don't do eggs. So anyway, and a lot of Ben
and Jerry said, I don't eat Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
I think maybe they had one flavor that didn't have it,
and so I somebody tried it once. But Ben and
Jerry's built a brand and everybody knew who they were.
A bunch of libs, bunch of comedy libs. And they
believe commedi lib stuff. And by the way, when I
say believe COMI lib stuff, because they made a statement
that I happen to, they say it's they say that
they're ice cream its colorfule containers with flavor names such
as Cherry Garcia fish food with a Pea was always
about more than just ice cream. It was a way
to spread love and invite others into the fight for equity,
justice in a better world. I am not opposed to
spreading love, folks. I believe in spreading love. I believe
in warn a better world. I believe in justice, all
those things. Equity, I think we you know, equity and
sounds good equity in the real world. That's another discussion.
But when I say I agreed with him, if he
feels as that his voice is being signed by the
parent company, I agree with him that he should leave.
Speaker 10: And.
Speaker 1: I can understand him being disappointed. I don't agree with
much politically, with the statements and positions that Ben and
Jerry's has taken over the years. But let's they're committed
to who they are and they've never hit it. They
have never hid and said they have never hid who
they are, what they believed, and I respect them for that.
And if they are finding themselves now at a point
where they can't express or feel that they can't express
themselves because of cooperate pressures, I also agree with him
coming forward and saying, hey, I'm out of here. This
is not what I'm going to do now. I also
think at the same time, James, are you saying that
you agree with their analysis the word no, of course,
I don't agree with their analysis of whi's taking place
with this administration, I think I think it is not accurate.
But here's what I also think. The self policing that
is going on that we find ourselves in the middle
of currently, with people being held to account for their
words in the private sector and in some cases in
the government sector, is a great thing. This is the
strength of our First Amendment. Yes, the government, the government
can't squelch your speech, except if that speech is incendiary
and can harm other people and incite other people to
violence or suggest like terrorist attacks or something like that. Yeah,
the broadness of our First Amendment is an amazing thing
in spite of the ramifications. But where we're also seeing
it work is the beginning to see the reemergence of
responsibility from the public, from the private sector people that
are saying this speech, while it may be protected under
the First Amendment, is so heinous and so awful that
our company, our company, the company of people that associate
with us, do not want to associate with it, Nor
do we want to associate with the character or the
lack of character that someone has to put this stuff
forward out in public, and there is self policing going
on and that is wonderful. And I don't know whether
this is going to be a real game changer or not,
but we are looking at something very different here than
we have looked at that we have seen for many, many,
many decades in this country. All right, time running out
on this the fastest hour in American media. Let's quickly
deal with the house today. Jim Jordan did a bang
up job. And Jim Jordan, of course, Cash Bettel was
just under fire. You heard earlier with Eric Swalwell. He
called his entire career bs beautifully. He was questioned a
lot on the Epstein business, and we have that Promila Jayapal.
This goes on, we won't be able to hear the
whole thing, but you will get to that's cut six.
This is just a portion of that kind of exchange.
Speaker 4: Of time, because you'll get what you'll get a minute,
you'll get some seconds what we think is under five minutes.
Speaker 11: You don't get a dimansion.
Speaker 7: That's not how it works.
Speaker 11: Mister Patel. Are the victims of the Jeffrey Epstein horrific
trafficking ring? Are they credible?
Speaker 8: Any person with information about ongoing sectional trafficking?
Speaker 11: You if they are credible, ma'am.
Speaker 8: I'm commenting on the evidence we have. We have routinely
asked for people to come forward with more evidence and
we will look at it. And the evidence that we
have is the same evidence that the Biden and Obama
Justice Departments tell they determined, not me, they determined that
that information was not credible.
Speaker 11: And he's not letting me even ask my questions. You
asked the questions, he gives an answer.
Speaker 1: You don't.
Speaker 11: You may not like what he says, but you get
an interrupted my questions.
Speaker 6: Can we restore the general lady forty five seconds so
she can will.
Speaker 7: Give her adal thirty seconds, which is what I said.
Speaker 11: I'm going to keep taking my time because case the
time that you get you are not answering the question
the question I have. You just don't like these women.
Are these women credible? It's a yes or no answer.
Speaker 7: I have answered the question, well, what.
Speaker 2: Is telling you?
Speaker 8: I'm the only FBI director that has welcomed new information
in this case. This administration is the only one that
has welcomed any new information in this case.
Speaker 11: Yes or no, Present new.
Speaker 8: Credible information, present new information.
Speaker 11: The victims credible victims not.
Speaker 8: I'll tell you what happened to the last Trump administration.
Kingdoms credibly came forward, and you know what happened. President
Trump authorized the indictments Jeffrey Epstein, Biden, not Obama, no
one else.
Speaker 11: The entire thing a democratic.
Speaker 9: Oaks generated toms expired, and I gave her the additional
forty five seconds.
Speaker 1: He requests I would.
Speaker 11: Meet with the women who were second and raped and groomed,
cover up, recognize.
Speaker 8: Men, including those that might be.
Speaker 7: To the gentleman for Jersey.
Speaker 1: Okay, she's hysterical. Let it go. She doesn't stop, she
just keeps right on going hysterical. Hysterical. Now, Cash Hotel
did talk about the Epstein case. I want to get
this in because I took a lot of flat the
other week when I said I don't give a rats,
you know what about the Okay, here's for those of
you that care so much about the Epstein case. This
is the big thing, no matter what else is going
on in the world, and we have monumental changes going
on in the world, no matter what else you want
to talk about. Jeffrey Epstein, this one is for you.
Cut seven. I dedicate this for you, Cash Patel. Today
the hearings.
Speaker 7: On the Epstein case.
Speaker 8: The original sin on the Epstein case was how was
handled by mister Acosta when he first brought the case
in two thousand and six, seven and eight.
Speaker 7: The original case had a.
Speaker 8: Very limited search warrant, had a very limited search window,
had a very limited investigative window. I was not there
whenout search warrants and that investigation was launched. I would
not have done it that way.
Speaker 7: They were limited to only three to four years.
Speaker 8: Of investigations from ninety seven to approximate two thousand and one.
Speaker 7: In two thousand and two to two thousand and five, mister.
Speaker 8: Costa allowed mister Epstein to enter into a plea agreement
where he served weekend jails for trafficking minor women. He
also was allowed to relieve jail to go home on
the weekends. Plus he allowed a defer a non prosecution
agreement to be signed as part of that plea deal,
prohibiting future investigations from that prosecution and from that evidence,
and prohibiting the collection.
Speaker 7: Of further material. That is the original sin.
Speaker 8: We are working with Congress to produce more than any
administration ever has material on Epstein, and I welcome the
challenge to tell us that we are not being as
transparent as the law allows. We even went to court
and asked the judges to lift those prosecutorial agreements and
to lift those court order seals, and they denied us
three times.
Speaker 7: Congress is welcome to do the same and join the fight.
Speaker 1: Well, my friends, there you have it. So for those
of you who can't get along without hearing news about
Jeffrey Epstein, there is news about the Jeffrey Epstein case FBI,
you can go back to the conspiracies now. A Princess
daw Anna had the perfect, by the way answer to
Ben and Jerry and Jerry's leaving. She said, well, I
guess Ben and Jerry shouldn't have sold out to big
corporate then, huh they shouldn't have done it?
Speaker 5: Whose fault was that?
Speaker 1: Ben? You guys sold out to big corporate interest.
Speaker 5: Well, I can't holw you with that down very well, hit, I.
Speaker 1: Coming back on the fastest Iuran American media, do not
go away.
