Speaker 2: Call five one, three, four seven, five eighty six ninety
Speaker 2: northbound seventy five continues slow out of Florence into the

Speaker 1: Look at that back off of vacation.
Speaker 2: Our next guest, I have so many questions for why
Speaker 2: is anything going on at the coliseum and does the
Speaker 2: Tower of Pieces still lean? The Judge's next I can't
Speaker 2: wait to be invited over to see all the videos.
Speaker 2: Chuck Ingram on fifty five KR seat the talk station, Hey.
Speaker 1: Thirty one fifty five KRCD talk station. Of course he's

Speaker 1: but he's not on vacation.
Speaker 3: This time.
Speaker 1: We get to hear from the Judge and his thoughtful
Speaker 1: and insightful analysis, and his well his love of the
Speaker 1: United States Constitution, his faithful and faith and loyalty to it,
Speaker 1: unlike the vast majority of our elected officials. Welcome back
Speaker 1: from vacation, Judge Annapolton. It's always a wondering thing.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Brian, thank you, and Chuck Ingram, thank you
Speaker 4: for that generous introduction.
Speaker 3: It's a pleasure to be back. Way.
Speaker 4: Did I pick the two worst weeks in modern American
Speaker 4: history to try and relax on a beach? Oh, everything
Speaker 4: that happened from the attempt at assassination of Trump to
Speaker 4: the withdrawal from the race of the Biden, to the
Speaker 4: Internet being down for a week, to netting Yahoo addressing
Speaker 4: a joint session of Congress. It was one event after another,
Speaker 4: but life.
Speaker 1: Goroson it does, and I hope you had a moment
Speaker 1: to exhale and enjoy yourself. Am I looking at a
Speaker 1: tan is that? Did you get some sunway or there?
Speaker 4: Touch the sun sticks to my Italian skin, especially the
Speaker 4: Italian sun.
Speaker 1: Obviously you had nice weather. And I have to ask
Speaker 1: you because being the gormand that I am, the foodie
Speaker 1: that I am, was the food as good as I
Speaker 1: really expected it would be.
Speaker 4: You know, everything is fresh, even little small out of
Speaker 4: the way down an alley bistros, nothing as processed. Everything
Speaker 4: is fresh. The food was fabulous and it was really
Speaker 4: a terrific time. The weather was great. It was about
Speaker 4: eighty five degrees during the day, but no humidity except
Speaker 4: for one day in Florence. I took a train from
Speaker 4: a line down to Florence to meet some friends from
Speaker 4: Rome who took a train from Rome up to Florence,
Speaker 4: and we spent.
Speaker 3: The day together.
Speaker 4: It was literally one hundred and ten in the shade
Speaker 4: in Florence.
Speaker 3: Excellent.
Speaker 1: The food was Actually, my understanding is air conditioning is
Speaker 1: not as ubiquitous in Italy as it is here in
Speaker 1: the United States.
Speaker 3: It is now.
Speaker 4: There was a good time when it wasn't, but it
Speaker 4: is now. In fact, there replaces that believe it or not,
Speaker 4: we're too cold.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, well nice, so nice to have you back.
Speaker 1: And it certainly sounds like you had a wonderful time.
Speaker 1: It's okay. It's we're nearly certain that that member that
Speaker 1: person's a member of a terrorist organization, so we're nearly
Speaker 1: certain that's enough for us to well end that person's life.
Speaker 1: I got it. I actually circled that standard because you know, no,
Speaker 1: there is no near certainty standard in the law for
Speaker 1: people who actually care about the law. Interesting op ed
Speaker 1: piece when Presidents kill, which comes out tonight at midnight.
Speaker 1: I'm fortunate enough to have a be in advance.
Speaker 3: Every president from George W.
Speaker 4: Bush to Joe Biden has argued that they have the
Speaker 4: power to kill people without due process and without a
Speaker 4: declaration of war. The worst of these was Barack Obama,
Speaker 4: who actually killed Americans in foreign countries.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: And none of these people has been have been charged
Speaker 4: with any any crimes. So my article that comes out
Speaker 4: tonight is a constitutional and legal analysis of the president's
Speaker 4: ability to kill He can't. He can't kill anybody unless
Speaker 4: we have declared war on another nation and we are
Speaker 4: fighting their military. But when I learned that Biden signed
Speaker 4: this document authorizing him something. But Biden, who can't up
Speaker 4: two sentences together authorizing himself to kill whomever his advisors
Speaker 4: tell him with near certainty is a is a terrorist.
Speaker 4: It just set me back, and I felt the need
Speaker 4: to go through this recitation of history and law in
Speaker 4: this column. The American public needs to know what presidents
Speaker 4: of both parties do in their name. They kill behind
Speaker 4: closed doors, they have kill lists. None of this is lawful,
Speaker 4: and all of it they get away.
Speaker 1: With by what legal circuitous method. Did they get to
Speaker 1: the point where they believe Joe Biden can actually sign
Speaker 1: himself executive authority to kill people. I mean, you point
Speaker 1: out the law says what it says. They have a
Speaker 1: lot of hurdles to jump through, but they've got to
Speaker 1: do it under the Constitution, I mean, and no standing
Speaker 1: for anybody can test this. We're gonna get back to
Speaker 1: that whole thing. I mean, we could say all day long,
Speaker 1: and you can point out, as you do in this article,
Speaker 1: how unbelievably unconstitutional, extra judicial these killings are, and that
Speaker 1: there is no authority to do it. Yet we'll never
Speaker 1: make it into court on this.
Speaker 4: The most egregious example of this, and it combines standing
Speaker 4: with killing, was an effort by the father of anwar,
Speaker 4: al Alocke, and the grandfather of Anwar's son, to get
Speaker 4: a federal judge in Virginia, where the Pentagon is located,
Speaker 4: to enjoin the government from killing his son and grandson.
Speaker 4: And the federal judge said, you don't have standing in
Speaker 4: the ruling. You don't have standing. The federal judge said,
Speaker 4: what are you worried about? The American government doesn't do this.
Speaker 4: Two months later got the son and the grandson, both
Speaker 4: born in the United States, were evaporated while sitting in
Speaker 4: a cafe in Yemen by an American drone. This is
Speaker 4: the most extreme and severe injustice I know of with
Speaker 4: respect to with respect to standing, and with respect to
Speaker 4: presidential killing. At the time I was at Fox. They
Speaker 4: unleashed me to say whatever I wanted, and I goaded
Speaker 4: and goaded the Department of Justice to give us their
Speaker 4: legal justification. They leaked it to NBC News. A friend
Speaker 4: at NBC News sent it to me, Brian, a first
Speaker 4: year law student. If he had submitted that to a professor,
Speaker 4: not just me, but any professor, would have flunked the course.
Speaker 4: It analogized killing people whom the government claims are terrorists
Speaker 4: to police shooting at a bank robber who's shooting at
Speaker 4: them while the robber is running out.
Speaker 3: Of the bank.
Speaker 4: I mean, there is just no connection whatsoever.
Speaker 5: These people that were killed, from general solemoney to anwear
Speaker 5: Al Sadaki, were engaged in peaceful, normal human behavior at
Speaker 5: the time of their murders, and none of them had
Speaker 5: even been charged with a crime under the American system.
Speaker 1: Well, and that's an important component as well, charge of
Speaker 1: the crime and the American system. If you're going to
Speaker 1: have some sort of punishment, in this particular case, the
Speaker 1: death penalty, you damn well better have a conviction. And
Speaker 1: I'm with you all day long on that. I also
Speaker 1: don't believe this is good for American foreign policy, since
Speaker 1: we're running around bombing liberally in lots of countries with
Speaker 1: whom we have no dispute, going back to your declaration
Speaker 1: of war, I don't know where it comes. A rocket
Speaker 1: blows up a guy. But speak to my listeners who
Speaker 1: right now are saying, but, but, but, but but these
Speaker 1: were known killers of Americans. They were responsible for and
Speaker 1: coordinated bombings and murders of American citizen and our foreign allies.
Speaker 1: I know that may be the case, but that doesn't
Speaker 1: deal with the law.
Speaker 4: The law says that due process applies to everybody. If
Speaker 4: the President wants to kill a foreign general, he's got
Speaker 4: to ask the Congress to declare war on that country.
Speaker 4: Congress has ratified treaties that limit its ability to declare
Speaker 4: war only on those countries that present a grave threat
Speaker 4: to American security. You can't just go about killing whoever
Speaker 4: you want. If you can, then there will be no
Speaker 4: end to this killing. And soon the Americans that were
Speaker 4: killed overseas will become Americans killed here because they're bad
Speaker 4: people and the government thinks they're terrorists, and by killing
Speaker 4: them will be saving more lives. The whole purpose of
Speaker 4: the Constitution is to prevent the government from doing that.
Speaker 1: Well, as I sit here listening to these obviously logical,
Speaker 1: reasonable explanations of the reality versus what we actually are living,
Speaker 1: I wrote down North Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan. I mean,
Speaker 1: how many wars have we actually been in end wage
Speaker 1: where there was no declaration of war? Moving away from
Speaker 1: the individual assassination just to the broader concept.
Speaker 4: Well, there's been no declaration of war since December eighth,
Speaker 4: nineteen forty one, I know, which was well, there were
Speaker 4: actually some declarations of war after that. The one I'm
Speaker 4: talking about was on Japan, and then the Congress declared
Speaker 4: war in Italy on Germany as well, But there's been
Speaker 4: no declarations of war since World War Two. We fought
Speaker 4: about one hundred and eighty one wars since World War Two,
Speaker 4: none declared by Congress.
Speaker 3: None.
Speaker 4: It's all for the president has become a prince. Put
Speaker 4: aside the immunity decision of the Supreme Court. The president
Speaker 4: gets to kill whoever he wants in Congress looks the
Speaker 4: other way and gives them the money with which to
Speaker 4: do it.
Speaker 3: And most of this is done in secret.
Speaker 4: That's not a democracy that respects the natural rights of
Speaker 4: human beings. When presidents have secret kill lists and sometimes
Speaker 4: we don't even know about this.
Speaker 3: I'll give Trump credit. Every time he killed somebody, he
Speaker 3: boasted about it. So at least we knew what happened.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did come out and take credit for it.
Speaker 1: Judg Napolitano, I told you my wife's response after having
Speaker 1: read it, frightening I believe was our word. Anyway, I
Speaker 1: hrdhly agree with you, Judge Ana Politano. Everyone's here in
Speaker 1: the fifty five Kersey Morning Show. So wonderful to have
Speaker 1: you back from Italy, my friend. I know you had
Speaker 1: a great time, but we sure missed you here on
Speaker 1: the morning show.
Speaker 4: Thank you, I missing it to Colonel Douglas McGregor at
Speaker 4: two o'clock Eastern on my podcast.
Speaker 1: This afternoon, Judging Freedom. Check it out regularly. Just search
Speaker 1: for it. You will find it Judging Freedom until next Wednesday,
Speaker 1: my dear friend, best, thank you.
Speaker 3: All the best regards to a Joe and to Chuck.
Speaker 1: You got it absolutely
