LOU: JOINING US NOW, CONGRESSMAN
DEVIN NUÑES.
HE’S THE RANKING MEMBER OF THE
HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY,
AUTHOR OF THE IMPORTANT BOOK
"COUNTDOWN TO SOCIALISM."
IT’S AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER, AND
WE RECOMMEND IT TO YOU HIGHLY.
CONGRESSMAN, GREAT TO HAVE YOU
WITH US.
>> ALWAYS A PLEASURE.
LOU: YOUR SENATE INTELLIGENCE
CHAIRMAN --
[LAUGHTER]
IS BACK IN THE NEWS.
DO YOU THINK THAT ADAM SCHIFF IS
A LEAKER?
>> WELL, WE KNOW THAT SOMEONE ON
THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE IS A LEAKER.
THEY’VE BEEN LEAKING A REALLY
LONG TIME NOT TO MENTION THEY
ALSO LIKE TO GO THROUGH OUR
TELEPHONE NUMBERS AND RELEASE
THEM TO THE PUBLIC.
SO, LOOK, WE’RE VERY CONCERNED
ABOUT THIS.
WE HAVE RELAYED THOSE CONCERNS
TO THE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES.
WE THINK WE’RE FINE JUST TO READ
INTELLIGENCE PRODUCTS IF THEY
CONTINUE TO SEND PEOPLE TOWN TO
BRIEF US -- DOWN TO BRIEF US,
THAT STUFF IS ONLY GOING TO BE
LEAKED AND POLITICIZED, AND THAT
WILL BE THE PROBLEM.
LOU: YOUR REFERENCE TO DNI JOHN
RATCLIFFE MAKING A DECISION THAT
THERE WON’T BE ANY MORE BROAD,
AT LEAST, BRIEFINGS ON
INTELLIGENCE SO LONG AS HE IS
DIRECTOR.
YOU OBVIOUSLY AGREE WITH THAT
DECISION.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE KEENLY
AWARE THAT CONGRESS HAS BEEN
LEAKING LIKE A SIEVE FROM THE
MOMENT THIS PRESIDENT STEPPED
INTO THE OVAL OFFICE AND PERHAPS
BEFORE.
DO YOU THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE
AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE
SOLUTION?
>> WELL, LOOK, I THINK IT’S JUST
A BAND-AID MEASURE BEFORE THIS
ELECTION AND BEFORE THE DURHAM
REPORT COMES ABOUT AND BEFORE
THERE’S MORE PROSECUTIONS.
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, LOU, THAT
WE DON’T EVEN KNOW AT THIS POINT
WHAT DID THE DEMOCRATS KNOW AND
WHEN DID THEY KNOW IT ABOUT THIS
ENTIRE RUSSIAN HOAX.
WE HAVE OUR SUSPICIONS THAT MANY
OF THEM KNEW IT ACTUALLY IN 2016
WHEN THEY WERE GOING TO THE
RUSSIAN FRIENDS TO GET DIRT ON
THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WHILE AT THE
SAME TIME ACCUSING THE TRUMP
CAMPAIGN OF DOING IT.
WE THINK THAT GOES BACK TO 2016.
AND SO THIS IS JUST SOMETHING
RIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION THAT
THEY NEED TO DO BECAUSE THE ONE
THING IS CLEAR, EVERY TIME THEY
GET A BRIEFING THE PRESS SEEMS
TO KNOW ABOUT IT.
THEY RUN OUT THERE AND THEY HOLD
A PRESS CONFERENCE, AND THEN ALL
NIGHT LONG ON ALL THE OTHER
STATIONS THEY’RE REGURGITATING
NONSENSE, AND THEY’RE SAYING
THINGS LIKE, WELL, I CAN’T
REALLY TALK ABOUT IT, BUT JUST
LET ME TELL YOU HOW BAD THINGS
REALLY ARE.
IT’S NONSENSE.
IT’S POLITICIZATION OF THE
INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES IN THIS
COUNTRY WHICH REALLY GETS US TO
A THURSDAY WORLD COUNTRY.
TO A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY.
LOU: WELL, THAT THIRD WORLD
COUNTRY IS PILING INTO A
SMALLER -- SPIRALING INTO A
SMALLER AND MORE SINISTER LOCALE
RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THE FEDERAL
JUDICIARY MADE IT CLEAR, THE
D.C. APPELLATE COURT IN SIDING
WITH EMMET SULLIVAN, THE
DISTRICT COURT AGAINST THE
JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND AGAINST A
MAN WHO HAS BEEN PERSECUTED FOR
FOUR YEARS.
THERE’S NO QUESTION ABOUT IT,
THIS IS A MATTER OF FACT.
AND SIMPLY DECIDED TO PROLONG
IT, AND THE ONLY PURPOSE COULD
BE REASONABLY FOR POLITICAL
PURPOSES TO KEEP GENERAL FLYNN
UNDER CONSTRAINT THROUGH THE
ELECTION.
YOUR THOUGHTS.
>> WELL, JUST A COUPLE EASY
THOUGHTS.
NUMBER ONE, WHAT THE HELL WERE
THEY DOING INVESTIGATING GENERAL
FLYNN IN THE FIRST PLACE?
THERE WAS NO REAL PREDICATION
FOR OUT.
SECONDLY, WE KNOW ON JANUARY 4TH
THE FBI AGENTS THAT WERE LOOKING
AT THIS, JANUARY 4TH OF 2017,
THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CLOSE
THE CASE.
IT WAS REOPENED BY SOMEONE WHO
WE DON’T KNOW YET E, WE WERE
JUST TOLD SEVENTH FLOOR.
WE KNOW OBAMA WAS INVOLVED AND
BIDEN WAS INVOLVED.
SO WHAT I WOULD SAY THIS IS THIS
IS A COURT RUN AMOK LIKE MANY OF
THE COURTS ACROSS THIS COUNTRY,
UNFORTUNATELY.
AND YOU LOOK, I THINK WHAT’S
HAPPENING HERE, LOU, TO BE FRANK
IS YOU SEE WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH
ANTIFA AND BLM AND THESE RIOTS
AND PROTESTS --
LOU: RIGHT.
>> THIS IS WHAT -- THEY’VE
CREATED THIS MONSTER.
AND WHAT’S HAPPENED IS, IS THAT
BECAUSE THE MEDIA HAS BEEN SO
DISHONEST AND HAS BECOME A
PROPAGANDA MACHINE, PRETTY SOON
PEOPLE BEGIN TO BELIEVE THESE
LIES.
NEXT THING YOU KNOW, STATUES OF
GEORGE WASHINGTON ARE BEING TORN
DOWN, AND IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
THEY WANT TO TEAR DOWN THE
WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
I THINK THESE JUDGES ACROSS THE
COUNTRY ARE WATCHING THIS, AND
THEY’RE SCARED TOO, AND THEY’RE
SCARED TO MAKE THE RIGHT
DECISIONS BECAUSE GENERAL FLYNN
SHOULD BE LET GO.
JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE
DENIED.
LOU: AND COURTS DOING SO ARE
POLITICALLY CORRUPT COURTS.
