1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,879
Speaker 1: It's unquestionable that Trump and this administration are literally the

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:07,599
epitome of hypocrisy. I mean, at this current moment, the

3
00:00:07,639 --> 00:00:11,080
Epstein files are the center of this issue where Trump

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:16,000
legitimately campaigned. The whole campaign was predicated on releasing the

5
00:00:16,039 --> 00:00:21,000
files and holding people accountable, something that we all desperately want.

6
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,480
But right now they are doing everything in their power

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,399
to cover this up. And yesterday, oh dear old Pam

8
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:32,000
Bondi appeared before the House Oversight and let me be clear,

9
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:35,799
it was a mess, all right. Bondi literally screened to

10
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:41,439
Congress members using Trump's playbook of deflection and attacking people

11
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,880
when they don't like the questions ms Now, they literally

12
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,039
put together a compilation of all of her outbursts.

13
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 2: Play the clip this guy has Trump derangement syndrome. He

14
00:00:54,079 --> 00:00:55,840
needs to get You're a failed politician.

15
00:00:56,119 --> 00:00:57,039
Speaker 1: Not a complicated question.

16
00:00:57,799 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: H Well, I guess it is for you because you

17
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,039
have a law degree and those are privileged. Do you

18
00:01:02,119 --> 00:01:06,400
even know who Chase Mulligan is. You're so obsessed with you, You're.

19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 3: To teach you the rules again?

20
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: You're the Have you apologized to President Trump? Have you

21
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,760
apologized to President Trump? All of you who participated in

22
00:01:14,799 --> 00:01:19,000
those impeachment hearings against Donald Trump. Nothing about helping crime

23
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,879
in her district. She's not even worth getting into the details.

24
00:01:22,439 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: Excuse me. I'm going to answer the question, answer my question.

25
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to answer the question the way I want

26
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,040
to answer the question.

27
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,879
Speaker 3: And I told you about that attorney general before you art.

28
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,200
You don't tell me, Oh, I did tell you because

29
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,840
you saw what you did in the Senate.

30
00:01:35,719 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: Lawyer, not even a lawyer, Alma question this. Only two

31
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,680
people voted against it, and you were one of them.

32
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 4: Hypocrite. But we're going to move back to you.

33
00:01:48,079 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 2: I bet we are, yes, of course, because you're here

34
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:51,560
to testify.

35
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: Pandemonium. I mean, it's really what it was. In fact,

36
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,560
it was so shocking to me as somebody, somebody who

37
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:04,439
had appeared seven times before Congress. What you saw with

38
00:02:04,519 --> 00:02:09,319
Pam BONDI I did seven times. I called my substack

39
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,919
article of the day our congressional colosseum of cruelty, because,

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,360
like I said, after seven hearings, seven of these, I

41
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,639
can actually say this with authority because nobody else can.

42
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:25,560
I can. Seven times. I didn't just testify before Congress.

43
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,840
I literally earned a doctorate degree in political theater, which

44
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:33,879
is why when I watched Attorney General Pam Bondy yesterday

45
00:02:34,039 --> 00:02:37,479
in that appearance before the House, I felt something. I

46
00:02:37,479 --> 00:02:41,199
don't know, let's just say between deja vu and indigestion.

47
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:47,080
Because I have seen tough hearings, I have lived through them.

48
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,520
But one unfolded yesterday that wasn't oversight. It was Mattine

49
00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:56,560
performance of who Wants to Marry a Martyr? I mean

50
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,560
literally with the guest star that three Rings book, so

51
00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:05,680
look aoc then turn around and told reporters that she

52
00:03:05,879 --> 00:03:11,000
believes Pam Bondi was screaming because she knows she's implicated

53
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:14,120
in this massive cover up play the clip.

54
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 5: I think that we all saw today the performance that

55
00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:22,120
she had. She was screaming, thrashing, and I think it

56
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:27,000
is because she knows that she is implicated in a

57
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,000
massive cover up to protect a powerful ring of pedophiles

58
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:36,759
through the redactions, the redactions of the names of perpetrators,

59
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,680
the holding of three million files, the moving of the

60
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,879
unexplained moving of Glaine Maxwell.

61
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 6: Into a new cushy facility. All of these things are

62
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,680
what she personally oversaw. And that's before even digging into

63
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:57,840
whatever questions may arise from her history in Florida, and

64
00:03:58,039 --> 00:04:02,360
I think that her thrashing and her very erratic performance

65
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,280
today pointed to the fact that there are real questions

66
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,879
that point to the DOJ under her leadership, and her

67
00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:11,479
leadership specifically, as well as her role in all of this.

68
00:04:11,879 --> 00:04:14,479
Speaker 1: You know again, As I wrote in my substackt, the

69
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,639
hearing quickly devolved into what can only be described as

70
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:23,360
a Bravo Reunion special without the Glam Squad, except instead

71
00:04:23,399 --> 00:04:28,079
of housewives throwing chairs, it was members of Congress throwing

72
00:04:28,199 --> 00:04:34,199
accusations about the Epstein Files. In fact, Jamie Reskin echoed

73
00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:38,839
a similar point, saying that Bondi's job is to cover

74
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,519
up the Epstein files. Play that clip, and.

75
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,759
Speaker 3: It's I think becoming increasingly clear to America that's what

76
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,680
she's there for, to cover up the entire Epstein conspiracy.

77
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,800
It's not like a coincidence that she's from Florida, that

78
00:04:53,879 --> 00:04:57,120
she was there with alex Acosta. These people, alex Acosta

79
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:01,120
later becomes Labor Secretary, These people have travel through politics

80
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,319
with Donald Trump, and now her job is to try

81
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,839
to cover up everything that's going on with the Epstein files.

82
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,959
Speaker 1: Let me be clear about something. This cover up's not

83
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,000
going to happen. And it's not going to happen because

84
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:18,240
you don't have Republicans that are now ciding, believe it

85
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,079
or not, with the administration. You have so many now

86
00:05:22,079 --> 00:05:25,759
who are defecting, saying, Okay, we don't want to lose

87
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:30,360
our seats because the American people want to see it now.

88
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,959
The most important scandal to come out of the hearing

89
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:38,160
was actually the realization that the Justice Department this was insane.

90
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,399
I mean, we've all heard about government, you know, tapping

91
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:46,720
phones and shit like that. Here we learned that the

92
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:52,319
Justice Department is actually tracking the unredacted Epstein files that

93
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,360
the Congress members are viewing. This week, Welcome back to

98
00:06:09,439 --> 00:06:12,199
come to an end now. I also, on a programming note,

99
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:13,839
want to let each and every one of you know

100
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:17,519
that while Maya Kulpa and political beatdown are no longer

101
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,279
going to be shown on the Midas Touch network. My

102
00:06:20,399 --> 00:06:23,600
shows are not going anywhere, and they will be available

103
00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:26,560
on my YouTube channel right here at the Michael Cohne

104
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:31,560
Show or wherever you get your podcasts now. During Bondie's hearing,

105
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,199
it was actually revealed this was so crazy. It was

106
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:41,800
revealed that she's tracking what unredacted Epstein documents Congress is viewing.

107
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:45,079
Let me show you what it said. In the article,

108
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,639
it says this is literally news. Bondie's burn book at

109
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:53,800
today's House Judiciary hearing appears to include a list of

110
00:06:53,879 --> 00:07:00,560
searches by Representative Jayapaul of the unredacted Epstein files like wow,

111
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,319
and you know how they ended up seeing that picture

112
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:08,279
at the bottom. That photo was taken by a reporter

113
00:07:09,079 --> 00:07:12,800
as Pam Bondi was going through her book. Now, let

114
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,839
me move on and say that Nancy Mace she also

115
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,720
posted about it. Let me show you what she said

116
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,279
in it. She writes, Yes, I will confirm DJ is

117
00:07:23,439 --> 00:07:27,680
tracking the Epstein documents members of Congress search for Open

118
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,920
and Review. I was able to navigate the system today

119
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,720
and I won't disclose how or the nature of how,

120
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,319
but confirm the DOJ is tagging all documents members of

121
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,480
Congress Search Open and review based on how I confirm this.

122
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:49,279
There are timestamps associated with this tracking. I mean, this

123
00:07:49,439 --> 00:07:54,959
to me is absolutely insane. This absolutely goes against every

124
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,639
single principle that DOJ should be I don't know should

125
00:08:00,639 --> 00:08:04,959
be doing now. Representative on Jaia Paul. She was actually

126
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,279
the subject of the document in the earlier photo that

127
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,120
I showed you, and a reporter asked her for her reaction,

128
00:08:13,079 --> 00:08:13,800
play the clip.

129
00:08:13,959 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 4: What did you make of the dog friendly monitoring search histories?

130
00:08:17,879 --> 00:08:20,079
It is so outrageous. I think we just put out

131
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:23,800
a tweet on it. I mean I found out about

132
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,040
it because a reporter called me and wanted to know

133
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,319
about the emails that I had searched, and I was like,

134
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,920
how did you know what emails I searched? I mean,

135
00:08:30,959 --> 00:08:33,200
there is a separation of powers for a reason. This

136
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,320
is spying. This is the DOJ spying on members of

137
00:08:37,399 --> 00:08:41,200
Congress and what we search. So we are putting together

138
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,840
a letter with ranking Member Raskin and others on the

139
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,840
committee to say, we need a full accounting of what

140
00:08:49,879 --> 00:08:52,360
you searched for, what you're using it for, and you

141
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:54,679
need to stop that. We need a new process that

142
00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:57,879
assures us that you are not spying on members of Congress.

143
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, right, think about what she just said there.

144
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,279
Oh my gosh, we're putting together a letter. Oh my god,

145
00:09:04,519 --> 00:09:09,279
we put out a post on our anger and for this. Now, no, no, no,

146
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,240
that's not that's not enough. That's not enough. Need to

147
00:09:13,399 --> 00:09:18,519
immediately immediately bring in action right there to the floor

148
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,360
in regard to whoever it was that's set up. I

149
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,360
want to see whoever it was that set up the system.

150
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,000
I want to bring them in for questioning because if

151
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,080
this comes all the way from the top, meaning from Pambondi,

152
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:35,639
that's an impeachable offense. Meanwhile, without a court order, they

153
00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:39,399
shouldn't be able to do this. And Representative Reskin he

154
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:43,799
also spoke with reporters saying that the DOJ is violating

155
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,120
the separation of powers. Play that clip.

156
00:09:49,879 --> 00:09:56,279
Speaker 3: It is a violation of the separation of powers for

157
00:09:56,399 --> 00:10:00,879
them to essentially be monitoring our computer search on the

158
00:10:00,919 --> 00:10:05,480
Epstein file. So I think it's outrageous that they would

159
00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:09,240
do that. And it's Rowellian and we're going to have

160
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,120
some more to say about it.

161
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: So you, Gia Paul was the only person we.

162
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: Have reason to believe that it was happening to everybody

163
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:22,480
who went over there, that they were monitoring everybody. Well,

164
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,480
what will you have more to say about this later?

165
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: I mean just imagine, right, every single item that they

166
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,279
pulled up she already knew, which is why her three

167
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,559
ring binder was so perfectly prepared as a response to

168
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,759
each and every one of them. Meanwhile, Maga Mike Johnson,

169
00:10:40,919 --> 00:10:44,080
he went on Hannity, of course, and he claimed that

170
00:10:44,159 --> 00:10:48,399
the hearing was all theatrics and that the Democrats aren't

171
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:49,240
really serious.

172
00:10:49,799 --> 00:10:53,519
Speaker 7: Play that clip obviously, Pam Bondi said it. Well, they

173
00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:56,120
turned it into a circus. These are unserious people, and

174
00:10:56,159 --> 00:10:58,879
they demonstrate that with their antics and the committee hearings

175
00:10:58,919 --> 00:11:01,360
now which have turned into theatrics.

176
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 1: As she said, yeah, I mean, just imagine the theatrics

177
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,720
are coming on simply just the Democrat side, by the way,

178
00:11:10,159 --> 00:11:13,679
the whole thing, the whole thing is a gigantic performance

179
00:11:14,279 --> 00:11:18,080
on both sides of the aisle. Ask the questions. I watched,

180
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,480
for example, as one member, as one member of Congress

181
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,440
turneround and didn't ask a single question. It was a

182
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:29,919
five minute recitation attacking Pam Bondi. What good does that

183
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,080
really do for us? Isn't the whole purpose to elicit

184
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,159
questions and then to get responses? Isn't that what the

185
00:11:37,159 --> 00:11:41,200
whole purpose of the hearing is? Again, as a doctorate

186
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,039
in this theatrics, somebody who went through it seven times

187
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,480
with the click click, click of all the cameras that

188
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,559
were sitting in front standing room only every move that

189
00:11:50,639 --> 00:11:56,679
you make being documented. I wanted answers. And if she's

190
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,200
not going to give them, no problem, you're released. Come

191
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,399
back tomorrow or next week, and then just keep doing

192
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,120
it again and again and again and then bring to

193
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,440
the floor what you need to now. I do want

194
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,000
to end on a clip of the so called theatrics

195
00:12:13,039 --> 00:12:18,600
literally coming from the Democrats when Bondi accused Representative Becca

196
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,639
Ballant of being anti Semitic, even though, of course balances

197
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,600
own grandfather died in a concentration camp.

198
00:12:26,279 --> 00:12:29,159
Speaker 2: Lay the clip this anti Semitic culture right now, she

199
00:12:29,279 --> 00:12:32,480
voted against a resolution contempt condemning.

200
00:12:32,799 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 4: Oh you.

201
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 3: Want to go there, Attorney General, or.

202
00:12:37,879 --> 00:12:40,639
Speaker 2: Do you want to go there?

203
00:12:39,799 --> 00:12:42,039
Speaker 1: Are gentlemen talking.

204
00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 2: To a woman who lost her grandfather.

205
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:52,279
Speaker 3: The committee will talk to Jared Wise about anti semit.

206
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me be clear about one last thing, as

207
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,440
I finished with my sub stack again, our congressional colisseum

208
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,440
of cruelty. You know what we really wanted out of

209
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,279
all of this, What should have shifted the room. The

210
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:10,000
eleven victims of Jeffrey Epstein who sat in that chamber,

211
00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:17,919
the eleven real people, real survivors, real pain, wearing shirts

212
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,039
calling out the redactions that have concealed more truth than

213
00:13:22,039 --> 00:13:25,879
they have protected privacy. And when asked if they had

214
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:30,799
met with Trump's DOJ, every single one of them raised

215
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,000
their hand to say that they had not. And it

216
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:39,080
was that moment that should have silenced this theatrics. It's

217
00:13:39,159 --> 00:13:42,080
that moment that should have cut through the partisan fog

218
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:46,120
like a blade, but it didn't. And that's why I

219
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,399
say stay with me, be a part of the community,

220
00:13:49,639 --> 00:13:53,799
because this is stupidity. It's got to stop. And as always,

221
00:13:54,639 --> 00:13:58,120
thanks for listening. Hey everyone, First of all, thanks for watching.
