>> Jesse: GRAB YOUR UMBRELLA.
IT’S A TOTAL STORM ON CAPITOL
HILL.
THE RUSSIA GATE HOAXER AND ERIC
SWALWELL FREAKING OFF AFTER
KEVIN McCARTHY WAS KICKED OFF
THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
KEVIN McCARTHY SHOWING HIS
BOSS, WHILE MAKING THE
ANNOUNCEMENT.
WATCH.
>> THOSE VOTERS ELECTED SCHIFF,
EVEN THOUGH HE LIED.
THOSE VOTERS ELECTED SWALWELL,
EVEN THOUGH HE LIED TO THE
AMERICAN PUBLIC TOO.
I’LL RESPECT HIS VOTERS TOO.
THEY’LL SERVE ON COMMITTEES.
THEY WILL NOT SERVE ON A PLACE
THAT HAS NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE
SECURITY RELEVANCE.
>> Jesse: THEY’RE COMPLAINING TO
ANYBODY IN THE SYMPATHETIC MEDIA
WHO WILL LISTEN.
>> THE CARDINAL SIN APPEARS TO
BE THAT I LED THE IMPEACHMENT OF
HIS MASTER IN MAR-A-LAGO.
>> DO THEY WANT TO COME BACK FOR
VENGEANCE AND TAKE ME OFF MY
COMMITTEES TO PUNISH ME?
>> IN MY CASE IT’S PURELY
POLITICAL VENGEANCE.
I THINK HE’LL REGRET GIVING US
MORE TIME ON OUR HANDS.
>> IT’S NOT GOING TO STOP ME AT
ALL.
>> HE’S TAKING ONE OF THE MOST
PRECIOUS PIECES OF GLASS WARE IN
THE CONGRESSIONAL CABINET AND
SMASHING IT.
>> IT’S ABOUT REVENGE, APPEASING
THE FORMER PRESIDENT.
>> IT WAS A FUNDRAISING GIMMICK
ON THE ONE HAND, BUT MORE
SERIOUSLY THIS IS KEVIN
McCARTHY’S WAY OF GETTING AND
KEEPING THE VOTES HE NEEDS TO BE
SPEAKER.
>> Jesse: SCHIFF THINKS IT’S A
FUNDRAISING GIMMICK, BUT LO AND
BEHOLD HE’S TRYING TO CASH IN,
POSTING THIS FUNDRAISING TWEET
HIMSELF.
MEANWHILE YOU CAN GUESS WHO THE
MEDIA IS ROOTING FOR IN THIS
LITTLE SPAT.
>> THIS ISN’T GOOD FOR AMERICA.
THIS ISN’T GOOD FOR OUR
POLITICS.
THIS ISN’T GOOD FOR CONGRESS.
BUT IT’S KIND OF LIKE, YOU KNOW,
A KID PUTTING THEIR HAND ON A
HOT STOVE.
>> THERE’S NO LEGITIMATE REASON
TO KEEP SCHIFF OR SWALWELL OFF
THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
>> McCARTHY HAS A LOT OF
POWER.
AS SPEAKER, THAT POWER TRUMPS
WHATEVER THE TRADITION MAY BE.
>> IT CERTAINLY LOOKS LIKE
RETRIBUTION BY THE SPEAKER.
IS IT?
>> IT APPEARS THAT WAY, ABDREA.
>> Jesse: OKAY.
WE’RE ALL SAFER THESE TWO GUYS
ARE NOT ON THE HOUSE INTEL
COMMITTEE.
SO I THINK THAT’S A GOOD THING.
THE MEDIA DOESN’T REALLY BUY
THAT, THOUGH.
>> Dana: THIS FEELS CUT AND
DRIED TO ME.
KEVIN McCARTHY SAID ALL ALONG,
IF HE WERE TO BECOME SPEAKER,
THIS WAS WOULD HAPPEN.
ACTUALLY I’M PRETTY SURE IF
ANYBODY HAD BECOME SPEAKER ON
THE REPUBLICAN SIDE, THIS WAS
GOING TO HAPPEN.
>> Jesse: YEAH.
>> Dana: WHEN THE REPORTERS, OR
ANDREA MITCHELL SAYS THIS SEEMS
LIKE RETRIBUTION, WELL, DO YOU
CONVENIENTLY FORGET WHAT
HAPPENED TO IN THE PREVIOUS
CONGRESS, WHERE THE REPUBLICANS
SAID IF YOU DO THIS, TO OUR
MEMBERS, EVEN THOUGH WE DISAGREE
WITH WHAT THEY SAID, WE THINK
THAT WAS REPREHENSIBLE, BUT IF
YOU TAKE THEM OFF COMMITTEES
IT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU AS
WELL.
TO ME IT’S CUT AND DRY.
THE SCHIFF IS ALREADY RAISING
MONEY OFF OF THIS.
REMEMBER I SAID, HE’S RUNNING
FOR SENATE IN CALIFORNIA.
THIS IS A GIFT TO HIM, IN THAT
HE CAN CONTINUE TO GO OUT, RAISE
MONEY, GET ON TV.
HE CAN ALWAYS SAY, OH, I’M SO
HARD DONE BY.
THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT
REPUBLICANS CANNOT ALLOW
THEMSELVES TO BE SWAYED BY JUST
WHAT THE MEDIA IS GOING TO SAY
ABOUT THEM.
JUST BE PRINCIPLED.
KEEP YOUR PROMISE.
AND MOVE FORWARD.
THEY’RE NOT SAYING THEY CAN’T BE
ON ALL SORTS OF OTHER
COMMITTEES.
THEY CAN BE ON LOTS OF OTHER
COMMITTEES.
THE.
>> Jesse: IT’S A VERY IMPORTANT
COMMITTEE, WHERE YOU GET BRIEFED
ON AMERICA’S TOP-SECRETS, AND
THEY ABUSED THAT, ESPECIALLY
SCHIFF.
>> Greg: IF THIS JUST WERE A
COMMITTEE THAT DEALT WITH ROADS
OR NUTRITION OR EXERCISE, WE’RE
GOING TO EXAMINE AMERICA’S
ISSUES WITH EXERCISE, LEAVE THEM
ON.
THIS COMMITTEE HAS THE WORD
"INTELLIGENCE" IN IT, RIGHT?
SO RIGHT THERE, THERE’S A
VIOLATION.
THEM, THEY THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN
A COMMITTEE WITH THE WORD
"INTELLIGENCE."
THAT’S LIKE A MAN USING A
WOMAN’S BATHROOM JUST BY SAYING
HE’S A WOMAN.
THEY’RE IDENTIFYING AS
INTELLIGENT WHEN IN FACT THEY’RE
MORONS.
THEY SHOULD REPLACE SCHIFF WITH
SANTOS JUST FOR FUN.
>> Jesse: AHA.
>> Greg: SCHIFF IS THE POLITICAL
EQUIVALENT OF A NIGERIAN PRINCE.
HE INITIATES THE RUSSIAN
COLLUSION SCAM.
TELLS YOU HE HAS SOMETHING, BUT
CAN’T SHOW IT TO YOU.
I HAVE A WILL, YOU CAN’T SEE IT,
BUT I CAN SEE IT.
THAT’S WHAT HE WITH COLLUSION,
RIGHT?
HE SAID, THERE’S EVIDENCE,
YOU’LL SEE IT SHORTLY.
HE NEVER HAD IT.
THE EVIDENCE NEVER MATERIALIZED
BECAUSE IT NEVER EXISTED.
THESE ARE LIKE PEOPLE THAT
GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL THAT
ARE HANGING AROUND IN THE
PARKING LOT.
GO HOME.
IT’S CREEPING EVERYBODY OUT.
GO FIND SOME OTHER STUFF TO DO.
IT’S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD,
YOU KNOW.
YOU’LL FIND SOMETHING BETTER TO
DO, ERIC.
AND SHAVE.
REALLY?
HE DOESN’T LOOK GOOD WITH A
BEARD.
>> Jesse: NO.
>> Greg: AT LEAST THAT KIND OF
BEARD.
>> Jesse: I NEVER GIVE THE
NIGERIAN PRINCES ANY MONEY,
BECAUSE THEY USE THE WORD
"BEQUEATHED."
WHAT BANKER USES THAT WORD?
>> WE’LL SAY THAT, YOU KNOW,
WHEN IT COMES TO THAT COMMITTEE,
IT SHOULD NOT BE POLITICIZED.
IT SHOULD BE INDEPENDENT.
AND, AGAIN, THOSE CONGRESSIONAL
MEMBERS BRING A LOT OF EXPERTISE
TO THAT COMMITTEE, AND I’LL
LEAVE IT THERE.
>> Jesse: SHE’LL LEAVE IT THERE.
>> Jeanine: A LOT OF EXPERTISE.
FIRST OF ALL, LET ME MAKE THIS
REALLY SIMPLE.
THE DEMOCRATS DID IT TO THE
REPUBLICANS.
THE REPUBLICANS SAID, DON’T DO
THIS.
IT’S GOING TO ESTABLISH A
PRECEDENT.
DON’T DO IT.
IT’S NOT A GOOD PRECEDENT.
SO THE REPUBLICANS DO IT, BUT
THE DIFFERENCE IS THE
REPUBLICANS HAVE CAUSE.
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THE CAUSE
IS.
SWALWELL BELONGS NOWHERE NEAR AN
INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
WE TALKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY.
AND THE FACT THAT McCARTHY
SAID HE COULDN’T GET SECURITY
CLEARANCE IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR
OR IN THE GOVERNMENT.
NOW, ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTOR,
THETHE DCID CONTINUING SECURITY
CLEARANCE IS WHEN YOU HAVE --
THEY QUESTION WHETHER YOU SHOULD
HAVE IT IS IF YOU ARE CONNECTED
ANOTHER COUNTRY, I’M GOING TO
SKIP THAT ONE.
LET ME DO THIS ONE.
FOREIGN INFLUENCE.
CONDITIONS THAT SIGNAL SECURITY
CONCERNS THAT ARE DISQUALIFYING
INCLUDE RELATIVES, COHABITANTS,
OR ASSOCIATES, CONNECTED WITH
ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT.
SHARING LIVING QUARTERS WITH A
PERSON OR PERSONS REGARDLESS OF
THEIR CITIZEN STATUS, AND WHEN
THERE IS AN AFFECTION OR AN
OBLIGATION BETWEEN THE
INDIVIDUAL AND IN THIS CASE THE
CONGRESSMAN.
THIS DCID SAYS BASICALLY THAT
SWALWELL SHOULDN’T BE ANYWHERE
NEAR THAT INTELLIGENCE
COMMITTEE.
THESE ARE THE GUIDELINES THAT
THEY USE.
SO HE DOESN’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO
BE ON THAT COMMITTEE.
NEITHER DOES SCHIFF, BECAUSE
HE’S LIED FOR THE LAST FOUR
YEARS.
YOU KNOW WHAT, EVERYBODY IS
RAISING MONEY OFF OF THIS, WHAT
THEY ALWAYS DO.
SWALWELL IS A DANGER.
HE HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH A
CHINESE SPY, WHO FLED THE
COUNTRY AS SOON AS THEY
IDENTIFIED HER AS A SPY.
SHE WAS WORKING IN HIS OFFICE.
SHE PUT AN INTERN IN HIS OFFICE.
SHE RAISED MONEY FOR HIM.
THEY ARE SHOWN TOGETHER AT PARTY
SITUATIONS, THE TWO OF THEM
TOGETHER, AND BREITBART HAS
CONFIRMED THAT THEY WERE IN A
RELATIONSHIP.
THAT’S ENOUGH.
>> Jesse: DO YOU HAVE ANY
SPECIAL CODES THAT YOU WANT TO
CITE?
>> Harold: I DON’T HAVE THOSE
PAPERS TO LOOK AT.
LOOK, I SAID YESTERDAY, I DON’T
LIKE EIGHTH GRADE POLITICS.
WHEN I WAS IN SEVENTH, EIGHTH,
NINTH GRADES THAT’S WHAT WE DID.
YOU HAVE TO BE GROWN-UP ABOUT
THESE THINGS.
DEMOCRATS SHOULDN’T DO IT TO
REPUBLICANS.
REPUBLICANS SHOULDN’T DO IT TO
THEM.
WHERE WE ARE WHERE WE ARE.
THE SWALWELL MATTER HAS MORE
STANDING IN MY MIND THAN THE
SCHIFFSCHIFF MATTER, BECAUSE WE
TO PUSH PEOPLE OFF COMMITTEES
BECAUSE WE DON’T LIKE THEM, OR
WRONG ABOUT A POLICY MATTER, NO
ONE WOULD SIT ON A COMMITTEE.
IF SWALWELL WAS A SECURITY
THREAT THEY SHOULD HAVE RAISED
THIS IN THE LAST CONGRESS,
BECAUSE HE REMAINED ON THE
COMMITTEE, AND HAS TO MATTERS
THAT THE JUDGE IS INSINUATING --
>> Jeanine: WE WEREN’T IN THE
MAJORITY IN THE LAST CONGRESS.
>> Harold: HEAR ME OUT, GUYS.
IF YOU BELIEVE SOMEONE IS A
SECURITY THREAT --
>> Jeanine: WE SAID HE WAS,
HAROLD.
>> Harold: JUDGE, HEAR ME OUT.
MR. McCARTHY AND SCHOOL LES
AND OTHERS SHOULD HAVE GONE TO
THE INTELLIGENCE AGENCY, THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, SAID WE
HAVE --
>> Jesse: THE FBI WENT TO
McCARTHY AND PELOSI AND TOLD
THEM.
>> Harold: THEY NEVER CHARGED
HIM OR CONVICTED.
>> Jeanine: HE DOESN’T HAVE TO
BE CHARGED UNDER THE GUIDELINES,
DCID 114.
HE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE CHARGE.
HE’S NOT QUALIFIED.
>> Harold: I’M NOT DEFENDING HIM
OR SUPPORTING HIM H I’M JUST
SAYING OF THE TWO HE SEEMS HE’S
THE GREATER ONE TO HAVE A CASE.
SCHIFF, JUST BECAUSE YOU DON’T
LIKE HIM, THAT’S YOUR OPINION, I
HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION.
MAYBE OTHERS HAVE A DIFFERENT
OPINION ABOUT IT.
I DON’T THINK THEY SHOULD DO
THIS.
THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE DONE IT
BEFORE.
WE ARE WHERE WE ARE.
I HOPE THIS POLITICS STOPS.
IT’S NOT A GREAT EXAMPLE FOR
KIDS.
IT’S CERTAINLY NOT A GREAT
EXAMPLE FOR ADULTS.
>> Greg: WHAT ABOUT THE
CHILDREN?
THAT’S WHAT I WAS THINKING.
>> Harold: I COULD FEEL YOU.
YOU WERE CHANNELING.
>> Greg: I WAS CHANNELING.
>> Jesse: YOU DON’T ALWAYS HAVE
TO TURN THE OTHER CHEEK, HAROLD.
JUST WRITE THAT DOWN.
>> Jesse: BRET BAIER SCORING A
HUGE INTERVIEW WITH A TOP META
EXECUTIVE THAT’S GOING TO BREAK
SOME BIG NEWS.
>> SO YOU ARE ENDING THE
SUSPENSION OF FORMER PRESIDENT
TRUMP ON FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM.
WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT NOW?
AND EXPLAIN WHAT’S BEHIND IT.
>> WE’RE CONFIRM CAN, IF HE WANT
TO, HE CAN USE FACEBOOK AND
INSTAGRAM AGAIN.
THERE ARE GUIDELINES AND RULES.
HE HAS TO PLAY BY THE RULES.
