Pres Trump EXPOSES The HYPOCRISY Behind Roger Stone's INDICTMENT! Mueller SHAKING In FEAR
he's never been in a lack of having things to say there's no question about
that so looking forward to that I think Phil said that that was going to happen
sometime around 12:15 or so let's just refresh everybody at home Roger stone
arrested this morning by the FBI with guns drawn in a pre-dawn raid at his
house in Fort Lauderdale and indicted by a grand jury on seven counts including
one count of obstructing an inquiry six counts of making false statements to the
House Intelligence Committee and one count of witness tampering according to
the indictment for allegedly threatening radio host Randy Craddock
to have him give false testimony to the House Intelligence Committee even at one
point according to the indictment threatening to take away crÃticos dog
the president weighed in on this just a short time ago on Twitter saying it's
the greatest witch hunt in the history of our country no collusion border
coyotes drug dealers and human traffickers are treated better who
alerted CNN to be there more on that in just a second in a statement this
morning the president's attorney Rudy Giuliani said this is another case of a
processed crime that arose only after the investigation began and that nothing
stone did prior to the investigation was criminal the statement raids quote the
indictment today is yet again nothing more than another false statement charge
it doesn't allege collusion indeed it charges no underlying wrongdoing by mr.
stone or anyone else seems like we are coming to an end the White House
distancing itself from any culpability here Sarah Sanders dismissing a question
about whether the president may have told stone to lie is quote insulting but
Nancy Pelosi whose Democratic colleagues will spend the next two years
investigating all things Trump had this to say about it this morning listen
surrounded himself with this connection to the integrity of our elections is
obviously something we have to get the truth about but it's also bothersome to
see his connections to Russia and the president's suggestions that we should
question whether we should be in NATO which is a dream come true for Vladimir
Putin now while the indictment draws a connection between Roger stone and
WikiLeaks it does not draw a connection between Roger stone and Russia WikiLeaks
insists that Russia was not the source of the leaked emails from the hack
Democratic server that it released however the US intelligence agencies say
they believe people with ties direct eyes to the Kremlin were responsible for
giving those emails to WikiLeaks now as to how CNN was there according to their
producer who was on the scene here in Washington DC they noticed an
extraordinary amount of grand jury activity yesterday on a day when there
typically isn't any they put two and two together and said well maybe we should
check out Roger stones house and and clearly that sort of gumshoe reporting
paid off for them if that's the way it happened of course inching the
president's question in a tweet a few moments ago who alerted CNN to be there
John Roberts thank you we have a lot to get to joining us now the author of the
deep State Fox News contributor jason Chaffetz the author of the Russian hoax
Fox News legal analysts greg jarrett author of the case against the
democratic house impeaching trump Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz
congressman Chaffetz I'll begin with you if this is the case all of these other
people that we know lied to Congress and in the case of Hillary they were
subpoenaed she did delete them she did acid-wash the hard drive and she did
bust up devices what where's her pre-dawn raid where's the pre-dawn rate
of everybody else I mentioned remember Bryan Pagliano was the IT specialist for
Hillary Clinton twice twice I issued a duly issued
subpoena he refused to show up in Congress not only was there not a
pre-dawn raid they never arrested him they never prosecuted that never did
anything about him instead what you had was this FBI and the Department of
Justice handing out immune the agreements so that they got the
easiest treatment possible at the same time as you point out there were emails
and documents classified information so highly classified even I as the chairman
of the Oversight Committee could not see this information it was out in the wind
it was told up to up to 300 people had this secure information in a non
classified setting and the Department of Justice did nothing it's the duplicity
it's the it's the unbalance its that Lady Justice speaking under a blindfold
and acting differently for the Democrats than you do on Republicans that's so
disgusting yeah a great guy want to get your thoughts on this well Jason is
absolutely right and in fact Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills two of Hillary
Clinton's top aides clearly made false and misleading statements to the FBI and
emails prove that those were false statements and Jason during a committee
hearing Intelligence Committee hearing confronted James Comey about it and
Comey said quote well there's always conflicting recollection of facts you
know this from the same guy who used no facts no evidence no probable cause to
launch a dilating and improper an illegitimate investigation of Donald
Trump and now his longtime friend in a lie Robert Muller is pretty much doing
the same these are processed crimes but the indictment of Roger stone only shows
today that Muller has failed to meet his mandate no one has been charged with a
crime for which Muller was appointed you know professor Terzi which you've talked
about the criminalizing of political differences here every one of those
people I mentioned and Greg just mentioned are guilty of the exact same
thing that they charged Roger stone with if we're going to arrest one person if
we're going to cook we're gonna say that's justice where's equal justice
where's equal application of our laws no I agree and I think we shouldn't arrest
any of them we should let this be fought out in the political arena look
today's arrest is part of a long pattern by Muller
he only arrests people for crimes that occurred either after he came into
office crimes that were stimulated essentially by the investigation all
crimes that occurred earlier but have nothing to do with Russia
tax evasion bank fraud taxi cab medallions or one case where he indict
Russians who will never come into this country a show indictment Russian
intelligence arresting somebody right and the idea of arresting somebody like
stone the way they arrested him is a civil libertarian nightmare the ACLU
should be up in arms an hour later in court the government conceded he was not
a flight risk he was not a danger they accepted very low bail and they let him
leave they should have called his lawyer and said please show up at the federal
courthouse tomorrow at ten o'clock he's been indicted he'll be arraigned
that's the way white-collar criminals are treated but what they want to do
with him with stone is to squeeze him the way they squeezed Flynn and the way
they're squeezing man afford and it's judge Ellis who said they're not
interested in metaphor they're interested in what metaphor can give
them on Trump they want to have him sing and the fear is these people may also
compose we know some of them probably have already composed made-up stories
now stone and said he won't do it of course Michael Cohen said he wouldn't
cooperate either so we have to wait and see thank you all for being with us
contributing enter at national review of former assistant US attorney for the
Southern District of New York one of the most eloquent writers on Law and Justice
there is any thanks very much for coming on so assess these charges if you would
as someone who has brought charges within the context of the broader
investigation do these charges bring us closer as Americans to understanding how
our democracy was hacked in 2016 no I think the takeaway Tucker with with due
respect to mr. stone and this is obviously immense importance to him to
the country it seems to me that this set of charges underscores what seems to
have been obvious for over a year that is that there never was a
conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin to commit espionage it
seems to me that that is something that's been obvious to investigators for
a very long time and this latest set of charges indicates that they not only
were not in cahoots with Russia they didn't actually know what
why key leaks had so as you pointed out in your interview with stone there's no
charge in the indictment that stone who's facing seven felony charges was in
any kind of a criminal conspiracy with Y key leaks all this is about is the
process of investigating the so-called Trump Russia conspiracy which it seems
to me not only didn't exist but they've long known that it didn't exist I'm
fixated on the CNN tape of this raid on Stone's house this morning because I
think like a lot of people I looked at that and I thought this is not at all
the country that I grew up in or want to live in if a prosecutor says we go to
the house of a 66 year old man we know doesn't have a passport or a gun who
lives with his older wife who's deaf and their dogs and cats and we need 27 armed
federal agents each with a sidearm and an ar-15 is there anybody who says you
know what that's just that's just wrong that's overkill we don't need to do this
it's actually dangerous why are we doing this why wouldn't anyone push back
against that idea yeah I don't know Tucker because this is not the first
time this has happened in this investigation
when Paul Manafort when there was a raid on his home in Virginia it was on the
night between two days when he was cooperating with two different
congressional committees and it was under circumstances where the special
counsel's office knew his very well respected lawyers in Washington and
could easily have called up the lawyer and said here's a subpoena these are the
these are the items we want there was certainly no reason to do it the way
they did it and here today what happened here seems to me to be complete overkill
to take somebody who is at best what you would
as a white-collar criminal if he's actually guilty of the charges who's
committed processed crimes and treat him like he was a Mafia don or Osama bin
Laden to me just seems to be crazy and the proof is in the pudding if you
really think this guy is either a danger to the agents who were conducting the
search or a risk of flight one thing you don't do is agree to let him out on his
signature to a two hundred and fifty thousand dollar bail bond I mean he
either is this evil guy or he's not it kind of reveals the motive doesn't it
and and finally there's been a lot of debate today about how a CNN producer
with a camera wound up at the scene at five something in the morning
CNN has an explanation for it I don't know if it's true or not is it plausible
in your mind that a prosecutor in this in this investigation would tip off a
news organization I mean if you're gonna conduct a raid like this presumably
you're doing it for shock and awe would it be so strange to let a news
organization a sympathetic one no I don't think it would be strange to do
that particularly under circumstances where it looks like there was a lot of
orchestrating the media response here as I understand it the raid began at six
o'clock the press release was issued at six was at 6:17 I think Catherine
Herridge said yeah this morning so that obviously is suspicious I'm also aware
of investigations where for example the media finds out that you know there's
some leak in the investigation the media finds out there's going to be a raid and
the government makes a deal that they can be on the scene as long as they
don't leak the fact of the raid so that people get a chance to escape
so I until we know all the facts I wouldn't jump to conclusions no one
knows I'm not but what you're describing is its own form of collusion I would
know if true Andy McCarthy thank you very much illusions of us could
collusions very loose term there so there's a loose term and it's a common
phenomenon here in Washington I can tell you thank you very much thank you god
bless you and God bless america
