He's a radio host here. 28 00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:31.799 In New York. 29 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:37.879 The rush hour is on the air. Now here's James Golden. 30 00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:42.640 House of Representatives. Sir, I am deeply sorry to my 31 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.640 family's staff and constituents for mistakes and judgment I've made 32 00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.319 in my past. I will fight the serious false allegations 33 00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:54.400 made against me. However, I must take responsibility and ownership 34 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.239 for the mistakes I did make. I am aware of 35 00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.200 efforts to bring an immediate expulsion vote against me and 36 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:04.719 other members, expelling anyone in Congress without due process within 37 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.959 days of an allegation being made as well. But it's 38 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.639 also wrong for my constituents to have to be distracted 39 00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:13.680 from my duties. Therefore, I plan to resign my seat 40 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:17.680 in Congress, effective at two pm Eastern Time on April fourteenth, 41 00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:20.639 twenty twenty six. I will work with my staff in 42 00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:22.960 the coming days to ensure they are able and my 43 00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.240 absence to serve the needs of the good people of 44 00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:31.159 the fourteenth Congressional District. Signed, sincerely, Eric Swalwell under House. 45 00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:38.520 Yes, my friends, it's his official Eric is gone. Well 46 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:41.479 say that it looks like Eric screw depuchia on this one. 47 00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.159 Eric Swalwell, ladies and gentlemen, no longer a member of 48 00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:50.080 the House of Representative. His resignation today, and that's sad 49 00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:56.400 news for some. I mean, after all, the much Scaramucci 50 00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.439 was on with Anderson Cooper and he said that he's 51 00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:05.759 gonna play the human side, my heart goes out to him. 52 00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:13.080 So Scaramuci is one among probably others expressing sadness that 53 00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:19.439 Eric Swolwell, at least momentarily seems to be without a 54 00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:26.599 career in the world of politics. The way things are going, 55 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:33.120 his life may be filled with new opportunities, perhaps leading 56 00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:41.719 a group behind walls, you know, those those group therapy 57 00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:46.919 sessions for Well. I mean, it's premature to suggest that 58 00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.919 I was thinking about that today. You know, Harvey Weinstein 59 00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:54.840 is asking for a new child or doing. 60 00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:55.319 New stuff with that. 61 00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:58.879 You have Bill Cosby out there still in this thing 62 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.319 with wy thing with Swalwell. Kind of remember the way 63 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:07.800 Bill Bill Cosby started. One woman made an accusation. People 64 00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:11.520 were like, then another one, and then another one, and 65 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:14.120 then another one, and then another one, another another another 66 00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:17.079 another another, another, another one, and pretty soon there was 67 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:22.439 a whole magazine covers worth of women saying that Bill 68 00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:24.600 Cosby did things. So I wonder if this is what's 69 00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.160 gonna happen to, oh, Eric, because every day they're there 70 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:36.839 are more people stepping forward. Headline in the SF Gate today, 71 00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:41.480 that's another one of these. San Francisco Bay Area website, 72 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:48.959 San Francisco Chronicle, which which broke the story with mister Swalwell, 73 00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:54.040 is deeply involved with us of Gate and the headline. 74 00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.800 I think this is right out of Princess Diana's analysis. 75 00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:04.839 Swalwell fallout could finally launch standout Bay Area democrat in 76 00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:09.759 governor's race. The race to succeed Gavin Newsom is as 77 00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:15.839 wide open as Eric's Walwells fly no as as ever 78 00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:23.600 where the sudden nose of Representative erics wal Wall's withdrawal. Yes, 79 00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:29.680 ladies and gentlemen, he pulled out before the end, not 80 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.839 only from the packed California governor's race, but also from 81 00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:38.560 Congress admit alarming allegations of sexual assault in this conduct. 82 00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:42.079 The competition to succeed Gavin Newsom is as wide open 83 00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:47.279 as ever. San Francisco Chronicle broke the news that a 84 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.160 woman accused Walwell. It goes on and on about that, 85 00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:54.399 and then they talked to a long time poster who said, 86 00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:58.959 we've ventured yet another period of uncertainty in the governor's race. 87 00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:03.560 Race got off to a slow start when Kamala kept 88 00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:06.519 Dylan Dally in before she said she wasn't gonna run. 89 00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:11.560 I'm just summarizing what's the article largely. 90 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.319 But then they're going to say that there are other 91 00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:18.839 contenders in the race, including a San Jose mayor by 92 00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:23.040 the name of Matt Mahon who's backed by Silicon Valid people, 93 00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:27.439 and what they're suggesting is she's gonna put some significant 94 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:33.519 money in boosting up the profile. Now Swalwell's people's you know, 95 00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:36.600 he's still on the ballot. It is too late for 96 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:42.480 him to be taking off the ballot. So Swalwells people 97 00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:47.040 are supposed to supposedly going to be discussed among some 98 00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:52.560 of the other candidates like Kate Porter and this Tom 99 00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:57.720 Steyer billionaire guy. But with Swarwell gone, as a chance 100 00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:02.240 for somebody that has some high favorabilities and some money 101 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:05.680 to step in and take advantage of all of this, 102 00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:09.639 which is one of the things because there are still 103 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:15.319 two Republicans sitting on top of the California governor's race, 104 00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:21.040 and that cannot be accepted in California politics. 105 00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:27.839 This is a very no pun intended. 106 00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:38.600 Fluid situation, sticky, some might call it, and it gets worse. 107 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:46.720 Let's check in with one of Swallwell's dea dea friends. 108 00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:56.720 Send it to Ruben Galego of Arizona. Now, let's first 109 00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:02.199 go back ten days ago. You might remember this is 110 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:05.079 how quickly this is unfolded, folks. You might remember a 111 00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:08.959 Mia ten days ago, we were all talking about, well 112 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:14.199 some of us fang Fang because there were rumors in 113 00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.519 the press that the fang Fang files were going to 114 00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.360 be released, and Eric was having a fit about them. 115 00:08:21.519 --> 00:08:25.319 Didn't have a lawyers talking about sueing Old Cash Ptail 116 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.160 and the FBI. We got to keep it all secret. 117 00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:34.279 We don't want the fang Fang files exposed selectioneering. That 118 00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:43.039 would be bad business. Ruben Glego, Democrat senator from Arizona, 119 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:49.000 was on MS. Now that's cut seventeen, and remember this, 120 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:53.679 this is good old Ruben. Ten days ago. 121 00:08:53.679 --> 00:08:56.480 Well, a number of congress a friend of mine who's 122 00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:59.879 now the front runner for a governor in California. The 123 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:02.840 fact that you know from reports we're hearing is that 124 00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:06.799 you know, he's trying to politicize a report that came 125 00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:11.639 out years ago that actually clarified and exonerated Eric Swallow, 126 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.759 and now they wanted to change that to benefit just 127 00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:17.960 you know, the president's narrative to try to stop Eric 128 00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:20.879 Swall from being governor. Why because he knows Number one, 129 00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:23.720 Eric Swallow is going to win the governorship of California. 130 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:27.879 Number two, Eric Swall is the hardest fighter against Donald Trump. 131 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.600 And if Eric Swell is governor of California, he's going 132 00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:34.879 to have the bully pulpit to go after Donald Trump 133 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:37.399 unlike any other governor in this country, and they're going 134 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:40.000 to do anything. They're going to corrupt the DOJ They're 135 00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:43.240 going to corrupt investigations, they're going to force people, you know, 136 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.279 to give up the careers just for his little petty vendetta. 137 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.200 And because he doesn't want someone like Donald like Donald 138 00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.480 Trump does want someone like Eric Swallow to be able 139 00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:54.639 to fight him every day to stop all the corruption 140 00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:55.960 that he's causing this country. 141 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:01.879 That was a ten days ago. Now cut eighteen, Let's 142 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:11.480 check in with Senator Ruben Galego today and here he is, Ruben. 143 00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:13.960 Aka one for being here. You're welcome. 144 00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:16.840 I called this toa because there's just a lot of 145 00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:22.840 rumors going around about me, about my family, and you know, unfortunately, 146 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:24.600 this is not the first time I did deal with 147 00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.840 the SABS in twenty twenty four, at twenty twenty three, 148 00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:31.240 when they ran millions and millions of dollars of smears 149 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:36.120 against me, light about me, lied about my family, and 150 00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:40.120 sustained damn people again Harry Lake, Chris Lasovida, a bunch 151 00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:42.759 of political operatives they couldn't do in twenty twenty four, 152 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:45.039 trying to do again in twenty twenty six. 153 00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:47.960 I want to make a couple of things very clear. 154 00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:52.679 Number One, Eric's Wall lied to all of us what 155 00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:55.720 he lies to the most powerful people in this country, 156 00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:58.080 and they trusted him. They trusted him with some the 157 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:02.399 most sensitive They not govern that whether it was a 158 00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:07.759 Judiciary committee, Intel committee, impeaching Donald Trump, and that Cloud 159 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:11.960 in my judgment, my friendship with him are families friendship 160 00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:15.600 together with him Cloud in my judgment, and I was wrong. 161 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.840 I deeply, deeply regret that the women that came forward 162 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:25.399 are courageous and they still deserve justice. But to be 163 00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:29.759 clear again, I also had no knowledge of predatory behavior, 164 00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:36.960 sexual assault, or harassment. And unfortunately, right now, the same 165 00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:38.799 people that are attacking in twenty twenty four are using 166 00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:42.120 this horrible situation, this horrible situation that's been thrown upon 167 00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:46.519 these women, thrown upon eric'swett was family and using this 168 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:49.440 as an excuse to put it can attack me, lie 169 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:52.399 about me, and lie about my family, and I will 170 00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.200 not take that lightly. So with that, I'll gladly take 171 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.000 any questions because we're here and I'm not going to 172 00:11:59.200 --> 00:11:59.879 let the same same. 173 00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:09.679 Create m Sorry, he's poor guy.

Here you go, 176 00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:18.840 Let's start off with the questions. Then let's have some 177 00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:20.279 questions for Senata. 178 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:24.440 You know, I don't know what's going on with his family, 179 00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:26.759 but it's definitely a horrible situation for family. They're using 180 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:28.799 that as a cover to attack me right now because 181 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.200 they can't do it. They couldn't take back twenty twenty 182 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:33.600 four because they ran a horrible race. But now this 183 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:34.919 is what they want to do. They just want to 184 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:37.159 hurt me as much as him, Presidents or anything else 185 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.639 say that, I don't care.

She was at GW 326 00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.839 with our old friend and colleague, Frank Sesno yesterday and 327 00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:39.720 he asked about the situation. 328 00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:44.039 If you have a challenge that you have to address, 329 00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:46.839 it's best addressed not as a. 330 00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:49.519 Candidate for governor and not as a member of company. 331 00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:52.880 Some of some Republicans and others are saying that Democrats 332 00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:55.039 turned kind of a blind eye, that they knew. 333 00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:55.319 What he was of. 334 00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:58.480 Now that is absolutely positive. 335 00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:04.079 That confirms it. This was a political operation from the 336 00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:08.119 very beginning. And that doesn't say that these things didn't happen. 337 00:23:09.359 --> 00:23:13.720 But the Democrats have known who he is, and you 338 00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:18.079 cannot tell me that they did not know that this 339 00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:21.200 was going on, because rumors have been swirling about him 340 00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:26.480 for years. Pelosi personally picked up the phone to swaba, ok, 341 00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:29.880 Palell get out and not only are you getting out 342 00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:32.839 of the governor's race, you're getting out of the House too. 343 00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:41.640 It came from the boss, Pelosi. Bechames, Bechames hawking. Jeffries 344 00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:45.160 is the bow came Jeffries is not the boss of 345 00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:50.920 the Democrat House Caucus. Nancy Pelosi still is. Jeffries is 346 00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:58.359 just a figurehead, a DEI figurehead in place to play 347 00:23:58.480 --> 00:24:05.519 Kate the coalitions. Everybody knows well, most people know that 348 00:24:05.599 --> 00:24:13.200 Nancy still runs the house. Come on, okay, let's move 349 00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:17.079 on to some other things, because other things are out there. 350 00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:22.079 I want to touch briefly on this because this is 351 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.319 not going to receive a hell of a lot of attention, even. 352 00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:28.240 Though it should. 353 00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:35.200 Cut fourteen Acting Attorney General Todd blanche On at. 354 00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:38.880 Folks, welcome back to the Department of Justice, releasing a 355 00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:42.640 bombshell report on the weaponization of government.

A jury later acquitted him. 364 00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:10.960 You remember we covered this story and here he is 365 00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:12.599 on America's newsroom after that. 366 00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:16.960 Look, I'm a pro lifer, and I've been a pro lifer. 367 00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:20.599 I've been an activist for twenty plus years, and. 368 00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:22.599 You know, we all know what happening. 369 00:25:22.599 --> 00:25:26.119 But the federal government did come after me with the 370 00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:29.119 full force of the law and rated my home on 371 00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:33.119 September twenty third as response to that. And you know, 372 00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:37.480 here we are four months after that raid, vindicated hopefully 373 00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:39.400 with no issue with appeal. 374 00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:42.359 Me remember that well, well, Acting Attorney General Todd Blant 375 00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:44.279 is with us here. Thank you so much for being here. 376 00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:46.759 I want to put a couple of statistics here, averaged 377 00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:49.920 twenty six point eight months for pro life defendants versus 378 00:25:49.920 --> 00:25:53.799 twelve point three months for pro abortion offenders. And this 379 00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:56.799 from a Biden official. Former Biden official saying, the Civil 380 00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:00.200 Rights Division brought law enforcement leaders, crisis pregnancies and are 381 00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:03.440 represented as faith leaders, and reproductive health care staff together 382 00:26:04.039 --> 00:26:06.839 to address the real violence, threats of violence and obstruction 383 00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:08.640 that too many people face in our country when it 384 00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:12.519 comes to reproductive healthcare. We enforce the law even handedly 385 00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:15.480 and put public safety at the center of this work. 386 00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:17.119 I imagine you disagree with that. 387 00:26:17.759 --> 00:26:20.480 I do, and I disagree not because it's just my opinion. 388 00:26:20.559 --> 00:26:22.559 I disagree because of the work that we did over 389 00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:27.039 the past year at the Department understanding what happened that 390 00:26:27.160 --> 00:26:31.880 led to these completely inappropriate results, And prosecutors have a 391 00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:34.640 big say in sentencings in the federal system. The judgels 392 00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:37.680 may impose a sentence. But what we saw as prosecutors 393 00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:41.920 arguing for really harsh sentences, inconsistent with what they should 394 00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:44.559 have been doing and inconsistent with what they were arguing 395 00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:49.039 when it was exactly the opposite. And we saw internal emails, 396 00:26:49.160 --> 00:26:52.599 internal correspondence which is now part of the report, where 397 00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:55.920 Department of Justice prosecutors are working hand in hand with 398 00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:00.720 NGOs and nonprofits to target and go after pro life, 399 00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:05.039 pro life individuals who were not breaking the law. Okay, 400 00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:07.400 and I'll tell you what. There's no emails. There's no 401 00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:10.319
