1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the

2
00:00:03.560 --> 00:00:08.359
<v Speaker 1>Epstein Chronicles. The way that the Epstein survivors have been

3
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:12.720
<v Speaker 1>treated by the DOJ is not only embarrassing, but it's shameful.

4
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:16.399
<v Speaker 1>And the fact that Todd Blanche is even up for

5
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.559
<v Speaker 1>this nomination is unbelievable. But under the circus tent known

6
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:24.640
<v Speaker 1>as the Trump administration, I guess all things are possible. Huh, well,

7
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:31.000
<v Speaker 1>all things besides Epstein, justice and transparency. Today's article is

8
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:35.920
<v Speaker 1>from USA Today and the headline exclusive Epstein accusers say

9
00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:39.799
<v Speaker 1>Trump's DOJ nominee was dismissive to them. This article was

10
00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:43.840
<v Speaker 1>authored by Aaron Mansfield. When a group of women who

11
00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:47.840
<v Speaker 1>identify as survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse found out

12
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>that they could finally meet with Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche,

13
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:54.759
<v Speaker 1>they hatched a plan. They prepared for a tent but

14
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:58.600
<v Speaker 1>businesslike meeting where they tell the Justice Department to pursue

15
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 1>new leads on Epstein's associates and confront the government on

16
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>disclosing their identities when it published batches of investigative files.

17
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:09.760
<v Speaker 1>What we were met with when I recall it in

18
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.359
<v Speaker 1>my brain, jaw dropping to me. Said Liz Stein, a

19
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty three year old human trafficking specialist from Philadelphia who

20
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>says Epstein abused her. We walked out of there feeling

21
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:25.640
<v Speaker 1>emotionally exhausted and really dehumanized. And this is the man

22
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:28.439
<v Speaker 1>that's going to be the attorney general. Huh. And when

23
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I say man, I use that word loosely because no

24
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:34.879
<v Speaker 1>real man who had the power to hold people accountable

25
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 1>for this bullshit wouldn't use that power. So if you

26
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:40.480
<v Speaker 1>have the power to do something about it and you

27
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>do nothing, you're not a man. You're a coward. And

28
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:49.439
<v Speaker 1>that's certainly, in my opinion, what Todd Blanche is. In

29
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:52.560
<v Speaker 1>exclusive interviews with USA Today, three of the women in

30
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.959
<v Speaker 1>the meeting said that Blanche, President Donald Trump's nominee for

31
00:01:56.040 --> 00:02:00.480
<v Speaker 1>attorney General, was combative and dismissive, and after they pressed

32
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:03.519
<v Speaker 1>him about whether he was familiar with documents the Justice

33
00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Department released, they all came to the same conclusion. Todd

34
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Blanche hadn't read the Epstein files. Well, no doubt about it.

35
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 1>You know which ones he read, The ones that might

36
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:16.360
<v Speaker 1>be damaging to Donald Trump. Those are the ones he read.

37
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:20.599
<v Speaker 1>That's it. This man has no desire of pushing the

38
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.520
<v Speaker 1>ball across the goal line. Instead, he wants to take

39
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:27.680
<v Speaker 1>a knee and run the clock out. The women's comments

40
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.599
<v Speaker 1>come as blanche nomination hangs in the balance due to

41
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>unrelated concerns about him Senator Tom Tillis and John Cornyn

42
00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:39.719
<v Speaker 1>to Senate Judiciary Committee. Republicans have stalled his nomination as

43
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:42.479
<v Speaker 1>they fight with Trump over the terms of a controversial

44
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 1>settlement deal with the IRS. A vought to confirm Blanche

45
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>to the top job has been postponed. Imagine being Tom

46
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:53.919
<v Speaker 1>Tillis and John Cornyn and carrying on over this, but

47
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.599
<v Speaker 1>not what happened with Epstein. Now, look, don't get me wrong.

48
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>The IRS stuff that's important. We all know that these

49
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>dudes are stealing hand over fist, and we all know

50
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:06.960
<v Speaker 1>that the administrations that came before them were doing the

51
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>same thing. But when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein, when

52
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>it comes to what's going on at the DOJ, how

53
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 1>dare Tom Tillis and John Cornyn two dudes that are

54
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:21.319
<v Speaker 1>on their way out already turn bitch? When it comes

55
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 1>to Epstein, Oh, well, we don't want him to get

56
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:27.560
<v Speaker 1>nominated because the IRS. But the Epstein stuff, Nah, that's

57
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:31.319
<v Speaker 1>on the up and up right, everything's good there. Todd,

58
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Blanche wasn't involved. Todd Blanche isn't managing a cover up

59
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>as we speak. Tillis told Blanche on July sixteenth that

60
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>he would only vote to confirm him if Blanche met

61
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.759
<v Speaker 1>with Epstein's accusers, a request that came minutes after Danny

62
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Bensky testified that she and other Epstein's survivors had been

63
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.599
<v Speaker 1>trying fruitlessly for a face to face with them. The

64
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:56.319
<v Speaker 1>DJ announced the same day that Blanche would meet with them.

65
00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>USA Today reached out to the Justice Department multiple times

66
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.599
<v Speaker 1>regarding details of the July sixteenth meeting. The Justice Department

67
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 1>referred USA Today to a statement by Alessandra Serrano, the

68
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Trafficking and Child Exploitation Coordinator. Oh well, let's just pump

69
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>the ball. Let's talk to somebody else. Let's see what

70
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>miss Serrano had to say. Serrano said that Blanche attempted

71
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>to address all the women's questions and that the Justice

72
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Department is determined to bring justice for all victims of

73
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:32.399
<v Speaker 1>human trafficking in sex crimes. Here's what we know about

74
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 1>how the meeting went. Does anyone believe that that's what

75
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:38.839
<v Speaker 1>the Justice Department's plan is and if that's the plan,

76
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:43.160
<v Speaker 1>they're not doing a very good job. Benski, a teacher

77
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 1>from Hawaii, said that the day that she met with

78
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Blanche July sixteenth was already intense because she also testified

79
00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:53.879
<v Speaker 1>against him at his confirmation hearing. She said someone from

80
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:57.199
<v Speaker 1>the Justice Department first offered her a staff meeting. Later,

81
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:00.160
<v Speaker 1>she said that they offered her a meeting with Blanche.

82
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.600
<v Speaker 1>God forbid, he has, you know, his day messed up,

83
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:06.600
<v Speaker 1>and he has to meet with these women. Way too

84
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 1>busy shining Donald Trump's shoes and glaze in his hog.

85
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Bensky said that she in a handful of other Epstein's

86
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>survivors who live all over the country attended, so did

87
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:20.480
<v Speaker 1>family members of the late Virginia Roberts, the most outspoken

88
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:24.879
<v Speaker 1>and well known Epstein's survivor. She said. Blanche brought Serrano,

89
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>other staffers, and another man from the FBI. She said

90
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:33.199
<v Speaker 1>the women's lawyers joined via video call. Bensky said Blanche

91
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 1>responded to the women's questions with defensive, semantic arguments and

92
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>did not commit to investigating any of the leads they

93
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:44.319
<v Speaker 1>provided about Epstein's associates. She said the tone of the

94
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>meeting came across as Blanche asking the women to get

95
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>to their point. Sounds about right, good old Todd Blanche

96
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:56.199
<v Speaker 1>most powerful lawman in the country, but doesn't have time

97
00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:00.959
<v Speaker 1>to talk to Epstein's survivors feel like he was acting

98
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.160
<v Speaker 1>like a defense attorney. Benskey set of Blanche, who previously

99
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:08.199
<v Speaker 1>served as Trump's personal lawyer in multiple criminal cases. That

100
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.759
<v Speaker 1>is at the core of what survivors have been feeling

101
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.560
<v Speaker 1>is that he will always protect his own and the

102
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:18.319
<v Speaker 1>administration's reputational harm. Bingo, that's his goal. That's the job,

103
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>and that's what Blanche signed up for. You want to

104
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:23.839
<v Speaker 1>talk about a yes man, you want to talk about

105
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:28.399
<v Speaker 1>moving the agenda forward. That's what Blanche's gig is. Whatever

106
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Trump wants, Blanche is going to try and get it done.

107
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 1>So Rano from the DOJ said in a statement that

108
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:37.639
<v Speaker 1>Blanche was direct with survivors about how the criminal investigation

109
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:41.079
<v Speaker 1>process works and what was required to build and pursue

110
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:45.199
<v Speaker 1>a criminal case, including meeting with an FBI agent. Man,

111
00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.920
<v Speaker 1>shut the fuck up. What about all of the immigration fraud?

112
00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:52.759
<v Speaker 1>What about the financial fraud? Let's just start there, Okay,

113
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Can we get a true accounting of any of that.

114
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:58.240
<v Speaker 1>And furthermore, mister Blanche, how can you say there was

115
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:02.160
<v Speaker 1>an investigation when nobody that was involved was ever talked to,

116
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:07.120
<v Speaker 1>no meetings, nobody being brought in to be interrogated, none

117
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.959
<v Speaker 1>of it, which is wild considering when I was a

118
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>young man and the FBI was pursuing someone in my family,

119
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:15.879
<v Speaker 1>they had no problem trying to talk to me, even

120
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>though I was under age. I wasn't even eighteen at

121
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:22.199
<v Speaker 1>the time, and they sure tried to talk to me

122
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:24.399
<v Speaker 1>as I was walking down the street coming home from school.

123
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:29.279
<v Speaker 1>But Jeffrey Epstein's buddies, God forbid. Maybe if Jeffrey Epstein

124
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.040
<v Speaker 1>had a valet at the end of his name, it

125
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>would have been different, because I promise you, if you

126
00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:36.519
<v Speaker 1>have a valet at the end of your name, you

127
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:39.560
<v Speaker 1>ain't getting any kind of favorable treatment by the fucking FBI.

128
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Serrano said that there were FBI agents in the room

129
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:46.480
<v Speaker 1>ready to follow up with them on their cases, and

130
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:50.279
<v Speaker 1>every survivor in attendance was given direct contact information for

131
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:55.519
<v Speaker 1>a senior DOJ leader. Laura Bloom McGee forty seven of Arkansas,

132
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.759
<v Speaker 1>another survivor who was in the room, said the women

133
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:02.079
<v Speaker 1>had already gone to the FAI to report Epstein's conduct.

134
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:05.360
<v Speaker 1>She referenced Marie Farmer's nineteen ninety six complaint to the

135
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:09.399
<v Speaker 1>FBI alleging that Epstein moved child sexual abuse material from

136
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:14.279
<v Speaker 1>Ohio to New York, which he certainly did. And anybody

137
00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:16.360
<v Speaker 1>who disputes what Maria has to say at this point

138
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>is crazy. The three zero two backs up everything she said.

139
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:25.199
<v Speaker 1>She said that Blanche effectively disregarded what they already did.

140
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:27.839
<v Speaker 1>He told us to go back to the FBI and

141
00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:31.319
<v Speaker 1>start all over again, McGee said. And that's because he

142
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:33.480
<v Speaker 1>wants to kick the ball down the road. He knows

143
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:36.480
<v Speaker 1>that a new investigation takes time, and he knows that

144
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:40.200
<v Speaker 1>going after the information we already have that would be

145
00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:45.200
<v Speaker 1>the shortest path. And God forbid. Remember, it's never been

146
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:48.960
<v Speaker 1>about justice, it's never been about transparency. It's always been

147
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:54.799
<v Speaker 1>about controlling the blast radius. Both Benski and McGhee described

148
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:57.519
<v Speaker 1>an exchange in which members of the group asked Blanche

149
00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>whether he had read the Epstein files. They both interpreted

150
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:04.200
<v Speaker 1>his answers to indicate that he had never read any

151
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>of the documents of the department he runs published in

152
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:13.720
<v Speaker 1>an online database. Well that shouldn't shock anybody. He's an administrator, right,

153
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>He's just signing off on things and giving directions. If

154
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:19.440
<v Speaker 1>you think that Todd Blanche, of all people his hands on,

155
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I feel sorry for you, because you're probably pretty dumb.

156
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>In his former post as Deputy Attorney General, Blanche oversaw

157
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:31.399
<v Speaker 1>the release of more than three million files under the

158
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:34.759
<v Speaker 1>Epstein File Transparency Act. Some of the women who say

159
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>naked pictures of them were released in the documents have

160
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>gone to court to get those records taken down. Bensky

161
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 1>said that when the group first asked Blanche whether he

162
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.639
<v Speaker 1>had read the Epstein files, he basically put it back

163
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:51.240
<v Speaker 1>on us, referencing the massive volume of files and implying

164
00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:54.120
<v Speaker 1>it was too extensive to read in full. We then asked,

165
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.399
<v Speaker 1>have you read any of them? Bensky said Blanche didn't

166
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.799
<v Speaker 1>give a clear response, but instead she said that their

167
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:04.200
<v Speaker 1>questions gave him the opportunity to say that he had

168
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 1>read some of the files or searched through them. USA

169
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:11.799
<v Speaker 1>Today asked a press representative whether Blanche had read the

170
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Epstein files, and did not receive an immediate response to

171
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:19.159
<v Speaker 1>that inquiry or to a follow up inquiry. Some of

172
00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:23.519
<v Speaker 1>the women characterized Blanche as insensitive about the situation. And look,

173
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>he definitely is right. Let's not make pretend that he cares.

174
00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm so tired of that. Oh yeah, they all care

175
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.799
<v Speaker 1>so much. Oh, the Trump administration cares about Epstein, justice

176
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.320
<v Speaker 1>and transparency. They've done more for Epstein's survivors than anybody else,

177
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:41.159
<v Speaker 1>unless you ask the survivors. Pretty sure they have a

178
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:45.639
<v Speaker 1>different opinion. There is crimes in those files that need

179
00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:47.840
<v Speaker 1>to be investigated, and they just haven't done their job.

180
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:51.039
<v Speaker 1>McGee said he's not taking it seriously. No, he is not.

181
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:55.000
<v Speaker 1>And that's just on brand for the DOJ when it

182
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.840
<v Speaker 1>comes to Epstein. People who were laying eyes on them

183
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.480
<v Speaker 1>were only laying eyes on them to make redactions and

184
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:04.639
<v Speaker 1>not to look at any investigative leads. And that feels

185
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:08.759
<v Speaker 1>like an enormous waste of time and manpower. Stein said, yes,

186
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:13.720
<v Speaker 1>for sure, in all those documents, even the ones we've seen,

187
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>there are plenty of crimes to chase. It's not that

188
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:21.240
<v Speaker 1>there's no evidence there. Most certainly is the problem is

189
00:11:21.480 --> 00:11:25.039
<v Speaker 1>there's no willpower. If it was their only job to

190
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:28.399
<v Speaker 1>do redactions, they failed to do them properly. She said.

191
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:31.879
<v Speaker 1>The women in the group are universally opposed to Blanche

192
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.440
<v Speaker 1>being confirmed as attorney general. If all Democrats on the

193
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:39.039
<v Speaker 1>Senate Judiciary vote no and two Republicans join them, his

194
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>nomination could be doomed. Zero chance. I've told you from

195
00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the jump, do not get excited about it, don't get

196
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:47.759
<v Speaker 1>gas lit, and don't let the media dog walk you.

197
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.279
<v Speaker 1>Cornin and Tillis they're not heroes, cowards, the both of them.

198
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:55.120
<v Speaker 1>If his nomination makes it to the Senate floor and

199
00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:58.600
<v Speaker 1>all Democrats vote against the nomination, a handful of Republican

200
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:03.000
<v Speaker 1>senators could also block the nomination. That's what Epstein accusers

201
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:05.960
<v Speaker 1>or hoping happens, but it's not clear whether the vote

202
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:09.519
<v Speaker 1>would happen before twenty twenty seven. Trump is going to

203
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:11.879
<v Speaker 1>be Trump and do what he feels like he has

204
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>to be done. But I do believe that the Republican

205
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:17.639
<v Speaker 1>Party will have some courage. McGee said. We've been meeting

206
00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:20.919
<v Speaker 1>with both parties on both sides, and they're going to

207
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 1>stand on the right side of history. Man. I wish

208
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I had that kind of faith, because I just don't.

209
00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:29.320
<v Speaker 1>All these years I've been doing this, all the people

210
00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:31.799
<v Speaker 1>that have gaslit us, all the people that have pumped

211
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:35.320
<v Speaker 1>our tires, just let them go flat. Sorry, I don't

212
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.039
<v Speaker 1>believe it. Stein said they may request another meeting with

213
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:42.080
<v Speaker 1>the Justice Department because she wants to remain open to

214
00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:45.279
<v Speaker 1>working with them in good faith. But she said she

215
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.799
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't participate in a performative meeting ever again. And why

216
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:52.120
<v Speaker 1>would you, Why would you want to do that? That

217
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 1>only helps one person, and that's Todd Blanche. Just because

218
00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Todd Blanche doesn't want to work with us, that's I'm sorry,

219
00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:02.440
<v Speaker 1>But that's not going to stop us. She said, Well,

220
00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.080
<v Speaker 1>it's not going to stop us either. So Todd Blanche

221
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:07.480
<v Speaker 1>better buckle up, because there's going to be a record

222
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:10.080
<v Speaker 1>of all the nonsense he gets involved in, at least

223
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:12.519
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to Epstein. And I promise you, at

224
00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:14.559
<v Speaker 1>some point he's going to have to answer for that

225
00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:18.919
<v Speaker 1>record in front of the American people. And that might

226
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:21.799
<v Speaker 1>not be today, it might not be tomorrow, but it's

227
00:13:21.799 --> 00:13:25.440
<v Speaker 1>coming eventually. And when that train comes rolling into the station,

228
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:30.960
<v Speaker 1>let's see how dismissive Todd Blanche is. Then all the

229
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:34.080
<v Speaker 1>information that goes with this episode can be found in

230
00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:35.120
<v Speaker 1>the description box.
