1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,480 Republican senator from the Great State of Arkansas, Tom 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,040 Cotton. He's a member of the Senate Intel Committee Senator 3 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,480 Good morning to you Good morning. Good morning, good to 4 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,520 be on the call. It's great to have you as well. um during the 5 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,600 60 minutes interview. uh both the uh question asked the 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,840 candidates uh the most impactful foreign nation uh the 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,040 president, said China Joe Biden said Russia. What did you make 8 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,420 of those two answers? You know Steve I remember back in the 9 00:00:28,420 --> 00:00:31,940 2012 debates when Mitt Romney gave the same answer. That was 10 00:00:31,940 --> 00:00:36,180 our main adversary and he got laughed off the stage by Barack 11 00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:39,140 Obama and the Democrats. Barack Obama even said that the 1980s 12 00:00:39,140 --> 00:00:41,700 called and they wanted their foreign policy back. I guess 13 00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:44,260 the 1980s are calling me and asking for their candidate 14 00:00:44,260 --> 00:00:46,980 back. Although with Joe Biden's case, it might be the 1970s 15 00:00:46,980 --> 00:00:49,940 that are calling and asking for their candidate back. Oh look 16 00:00:49,940 --> 00:00:53,700 Joe Biden is wrong. Russia. Russia is a threat. We have to 17 00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:57,400 be mindful about Russia, President Trump has taken. To 18 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,560 increase Nato defense spending to withdraw from obsolete 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,200 treaties with Russia that put us at a disadvantage to shut 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,880 down their consulates and uh send back their spies to 21 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,160 Russia. But there's no question that China is the number one 22 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,280 threaten the United States faces they've stolen our jobs 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,080 and our factories for decades. they continue to steal our 24 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,600 property. They have spies and our universities and all around 25 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,320 the country and of course, their military buildup is 26 00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,800 specifically designed to threaten our interest and our 27 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,940 allies in the Western Pacific. Joe Biden, the Democrats only 28 00:01:29,940 --> 00:01:32,100 discovered their inner cold warrior because they wanted to 29 00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,700 blame Hillary Clinton's loss on Russia, not on Hillary Clinton 30 00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:38,660 in their own campaign. Well now Democrats are blaming Russia 31 00:01:38,660 --> 00:01:41,860 for the Hunter Biden email scandal. They're saying that um 32 00:01:41,860 --> 00:01:44,820 it's Russian disinformation, they're trying to use Rudy 33 00:01:44,820 --> 00:01:48,740 Giuliani to spread information to hurt Joe Biden. This is what 34 00:01:48,740 --> 00:01:53,860 Joe Biden said about his son's email leak. Do you believe the 35 00:01:53,860 --> 00:01:58,800 recent leak of material allegedly from? Hunter's 36 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,840 computer is part of a Russian disinformation campaign from 37 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,040 what I've read and know the intelligence community warned 38 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,680 the president that Giuliani was being fed disinformation from 39 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,400 the Russians and we also know that Putin is trying very hard 40 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,640 to spread disinformation about Joe Biden and so when you put 41 00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:23,200 the combination of Russia, Giuliani the president together 42 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,160 um it's just what it is. It's a smear campaign because he has 43 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,140 nothing he wants to talk. About this, what is he running on 44 00:02:30,140 --> 00:02:34,060 what is he running on Senator? What do you believe is the 45 00:02:34,060 --> 00:02:39,120 truth here and what evidence do you have? What a joke Ainsley 46 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,160 Russian disinformation that couldn't be more false. Both 47 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,840 words are false. They have no evidence whatsoever to suggest 48 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,600 that these emails or documents came from Russia. look the 49 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,400 simplest explanation for these things is usually the correct 50 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,920 explanation. Those emails came from Hunter Biden's laptop that 51 00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:58,880 he took to a computer shop in Delaware and he left there and 52 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,840 the second disinformation or misinformation that implies 53 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,120 that there is false information. As far as we know, 54 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,700 Joe Biden has not denied any of this. He had a chance last 55 00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:11,180 night in 60 minutes. He still didn't deny it. Hunter. Biden 56 00:03:11,180 --> 00:03:13,340 certainly hasn't denied it for all you. Sherlock Holmes fans 57 00:03:13,340 --> 00:03:16,060 out there. Those are the dogs that didn't bark if this was 58 00:03:16,060 --> 00:03:19,100 false. If Hunter Biden was not trading on his family's name in 59 00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:22,780 his father's office, they would simply say this is false. It's 60 00:03:22,780 --> 00:03:25,420 not authentic. This is fake, but we all know that Hunter 61 00:03:25,420 --> 00:03:28,620 Biden, like much of the rest of the Biden family has been 62 00:03:28,620 --> 00:03:31,580 trading on the Biden family name and Joe Biden's public 63 00:03:31,580 --> 00:03:34,300 office for decades, but they didn't even throw out the 64 00:03:34,300 --> 00:03:37,900 question. He didn't even put on the question. He hasn't gotten 65 00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:41,020 the question and this stuff has been. A week already and you 66 00:03:41,020 --> 00:03:43,580 know do you know Tony Bobs might be something else to 67 00:03:43,580 --> 00:03:46,860 follow up on a yes or no would tell a lot, but let's fast 68 00:03:46,860 --> 00:03:48,780 forward to what's gonna be happening today with Amy Coney 69 00:03:48,780 --> 00:03:52,060 Barrett. If she gets confirmed even Lisa Murkowski is gonna 70 00:03:52,060 --> 00:03:55,900 vote for which seems to be uh given the looks like Joe 71 00:03:55,900 --> 00:03:58,620 Biden's gonna put together a commission about changing the 72 00:03:58,620 --> 00:04:01,180 Supreme Court. What do you think that commission is gonna 73 00:04:01,180 --> 00:04:07,420 show well first off? It's not if it's when Judge Barrett will 74 00:04:07,420 --> 00:04:10,780 be confirmed tonight a little bit after 7 o'clock Eastern 75 00:04:10,780 --> 00:04:14,480 time Look. American people got a good look at Judge Barrett a 76 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,400 couple of weeks ago, their confirmation hearings. They 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,040 love what they saw and now a clear majority supports her 78 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,440 confirmation. That's because she is a brilliant jurist. She 79 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,280 conducted herself with grace and poise and dignity under 80 00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:30,480 some demanding circumstances and she applies and interprets 81 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,280 the law. as it's written, not as she wishes it might have 82 00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:35,520 been written so Judge Barrett is gonna be confirmed this 83 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,480 evening now, Joe Biden and the Democrats are threatening to do 84 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:43,080 things like pack the courts because they don't do. The 85 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,680 courts as an independent arbiter of the rule of law, 86 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,480 they just viewed as another super Legislature to achieve 87 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,200 their desired outcome, Some of which you saw last week during 88 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,240 the debate like Joe Biden promising a no strings attached 89 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,360 amnesty in the first 100 days of his administration. if he 90 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,280 wins or promising to end the fossil fuel industry. Those are 91 00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:05,400 the kind of objectives that they have and they don't want 92 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,680 something as nettles as the Supreme Court and the rule of 93 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:13,220 law standing in their way. But senator you know uh. Joe Biden 94 00:05:13,220 --> 00:05:15,460 has been asked a number of times over the last couple of 95 00:05:15,460 --> 00:05:19,060 weeks. Do you wanna pack the court and finally he gave the 96 00:05:19,060 --> 00:05:22,420 answer, which was I'm not gonna give you an answer. If I'm 97 00:05:22,420 --> 00:05:26,020 elected. I'm gonna I'm gonna put together uh a commission 98 00:05:26,020 --> 00:05:29,780 and they're gonna I'm gonna give them 180 days, which kind 99 00:05:29,780 --> 00:05:32,740 of sounds like what a number of people have said over the last 100 00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:37,860 couple of days, Joe Biden is at the stage given what he said 101 00:05:37,860 --> 00:05:42,500 regarding a fracking and fossil fuels. he will say anything to 102 00:05:42,500 --> 00:05:46,860 get elected. Thank you. And Steve, that's what Joe Biden 103 00:05:46,860 --> 00:05:49,500 has done throughout his career. He's really been a weather vein 104 00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:53,020 for where the center mass of the Democratic Party is at a 105 00:05:53,020 --> 00:05:56,700 certain time. That's one reason why he was so weak on defense, 106 00:05:56,700 --> 00:06:00,620 the 70s and the 80s or why he stood up for giant credit card 107 00:06:00,620 --> 00:06:03,260 companies in his home state of Delaware 20 years ago, and 108 00:06:03,260 --> 00:06:06,380 that's why he's moved so far to the left today, things like an 109 00:06:06,380 --> 00:06:10,140 immediate amnesty with no promises of enforcement in 110 00:06:10,140 --> 00:06:15,240 return or ending the fossil fuel industry or imposing. 111 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,520 Imposing a government health care plan on the American 112 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,680 people, something that not even Barack Obama and sixty 113 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,280 Democratic senators thought to do 10 years ago. But that's 114 00:06:24,280 --> 00:06:27,080 where the left wing of the Democratic Party has moved and 115 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,280 Joe Biden has moved with them. Senator Cotton Thank you for 116 00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:36,180 joining us. Thank you all you're welcome. Thank you.
