18:49 What what a stooge this guy is? He hasn't slept for a month. Who is this guy who was this one of these as congressman I think he's from New York or somewhere, but he just hellish looking man Who and he doesn't know what he's talking about and he's just making shit up And he's and he's just oh, I'm just looking at his face from Maryland Oh, Mary I'm looking at it. He's kind of like Kramer from Seinfeld. Yeah, a little bit he's horrible looking and well let go... He can be no good if he looks this way There is a basis for thinking that way. Okay, but I'm not gonna get into it But let's just put him on with this is the first one is the Jamie Ruskin we know it is true Let's hear now from Capitol Hill representative Jamie Raskin of Maryland as a member of the House Democratic leadership team and he serves on the Judiciary Committee He formerly was a professor of constitutional law
19:48 Congressman Raskin, thank you very much for joining us. You said earlier today that if this is true it would be an impeachable offense how so? Well we know it's true because of course the Republicans impeached Bill Clinton over telling one lie about one sexual affair We know its true Wait, let's get this straight. So he starts over the non sequitur for he says we know it's true because Bill Clinton was impeached for a sexual affair What is that? What does one got to do with the other what does anything have to do with truth
20:24 So he's off to a bad start by saying we know it's true, was his first opening salvo. We know it's true! We KNOW it's true so that is questionable here...we know its' true Now I believe, I should have looked to find the clip of this, that Klobuchar Amy Klobuchar was... I have that clip. Okay, then i'll shut up and let you go to it No no what's what do you mean? Well what I heard is that she was grilling uh who's the new attorney general candidate Yeah yeah I have that That's in The Democracy Now I don't have her complete clip but It's within The Democracy now clip Yeah as if she had already heard-the point Is She Was Grilling um What's the guy's name? Wheeler? No what's his name? Oh what is his name? Yeah The Bush Guy
21:09 Grilling him, saying... Here's the rundown. She says hey if he did this is that an impeachable offense? Right or no it knows that against the law and he says yeah and then she almost asks exact same question. If the president asked someone to lie for him to Congress would that be a felony? Yeah of course as Barr William Barr that's who is. And he'd also been bar also says Yeah, but it'd be a felony for anyone. So so they it's clear that Klobuchar had this information That's why she was doing
21:47 I think that maybe this is before BuzzFeed came out. Yeah, it must be. It must be timeline right? Yeah Okay. Yeah. Yeah cuz they because she's a stooge Yep So I'm just saying that's why the guy like this who's on the inside like oh we know it's true We know you know, we got we got the briefing you see we got the buzzfeed briefing. You know our CIA briefing Yeah, everyone comes first okay Jamie rest arrest and to this is good one sexual affair. And this is about organizing a whole pattern of lies in order to deceive the Congress of the United States about a matter of national security and a matter that goes to the heart of American national sovereignty, so lying and obstruction of justice have
22:33 figured centrally in the impeachments that we've seen in modern times, that is in the Nixon impeachment and of course articles of impeachment brought against Clinton's. He wasn't impeached? He wasn't impeached but our professor of constitutional law seems to think that he was impeached! This is one of your favorites I think is that, and i'm starting to notice it as a meme. They're trying to push into the public consciousness the idea that Nixon was impeached when he wasn't. Well TBH
23:11 Until we started doing this show and you brought it up years and years ago I'm pretty sure. I thought he had been impeached too That was always kind of in the lexicon the way, I understood it growing up well You were duped! And I was subsequently saved Yes by the show OK, well he doubles down on the Nixon thing. So let's go to clip three. The articles of impeachment brought against Clinton so but both in the articles that were brought against Nixon and the articles brought against Clinton obstruction of justice and lying or central. views the president's involvement in lying to Congress and suborning perjury as certainly a statutory felony violation under federal law, but also a major constitutional offense against the rule of law and our Constitution.
24:04 Okay, Judy jump in and tell him that Nixon wasn't impeached. Hey Judy, Judy Jump in and tell them that Nixon wasn't impeached and guess get this back on track Judy Let me guess does clip for pertain Judy jumping in and saying that I No. Oh, damn. All by the way these clips are continuation there's not nothing taken out so I didn't cut Judy out she's right back in it and she's so concerned anyway play this and then i have a kicker Because again, this is a problem with Judy. Play this. Law and our Constitution suborning perjury meaning telling someone else to lie before the Congress or before a jury but Congressman what is it exactly in this new information that you that you think makes it?
24:56 something that is an impeachable offense. What is it exactly? Well, let's start with this we don't know whether or not this is true all we have is one news report about what one witness has said now obviously its a key witness and Michael Cohen was the president's personal lawyer but what Cohen is saying he's that the president urged him in counseled him and essentially conspired with him to lie before Congress And suborning perjury, that is urging and coaching someone to lie in a sworn context is itself a federal criminal offense. It is a felony. All right you heard what he said now we're talking about the show does Judy show a mere three or four minutes before this guy? We heard this
25:52 This is now the clip you're gonna play. It's overview PBS on BuzzFeed slander Jardan ISO. BuzzFeed says Cohen was not a source for its story Okay Well, if you just heard what this guy said and Judy heard. Yeah. The guy says Cohen Cohen said this Cohen said that Cohen was the source of the story. Let's play clip four again after listening to what you just heard law and our Constitution suborning perjury meaning telling someone else to lie before the Congress or before a jury but Congressman What is it exactly in this new information that you that you think makes it?
26:32 something that is an impeachable offense. What is it exactly? Well, let's start with this we don't know whether or not this is true all we have is one news report about what one witness has said now obviously it's a key witness and Michael Cohen was the president's personal lawyer. But what Cohen is saying is that the president urged him and counseled him, and essentially conspired with him to lie before Congress. So this is he's just delusional because he believes that the one witness Or the one source or was it one witness? The one source. He said, one witness or one source he didn't make it clear that was the only one Right But he does say that Cohen's behind this report and its clear by reporting done on PBS just five minutes before that he was listening to because when you go and sit down at these things your hearing the whole show Yeah, he didn't hear They don't hear this stuff
27:33 Yeah, they do. He only hears himself is what I'm saying. Well he does yeah! He could actually hear it i'm sure the audio waves... But let's take it to another level Judy heard it. Judy heard the Jardin report where she specifically says in that ISO Cohen did not contribute to the BuzzFeed report. He didn't say anything about anything, he's mum, he's over on the sidelines Judy knows that she just heard it a few minutes ago She did the report and meanwhile this guy saying that is Cohen spilling his guts That's causing the problem? And she doesn't say anything I would like to remind you that just because she has pearls Has a stately manner about her Doesn't mean that she isn't just like any other prostitute She's just reading The Prompter
28:19 She just shut... she's not listening to anybody. Apparently not. She missed the Nixon thing, she missed this and this one I thought was more egregious because this guy's going on and on about Cohen spilling his guts in the BuzzFeed article when in fact he didn't even contribute to the BuzzFeed article as previously mentioned in the same news report. This was a continuation of what Jardins was doing. This is extremely poor reporting! I mean I can't believe how bad it is she's got to go I think you should replace her. I'm not replacing anybody, okay? It's just a thought it doesn't give me the opportunity to grouse like this now No, no you I can tell you're very disappointed Incredibly disappointed ever since Gwen You know died died this show has deteriorated But extreme sure taught me a lesson because we were always harping on Gwen and
