Election denial has been around for decades... from Democrats

Live from the Fox News Radio Studios in New York City, fresh off the set of Fox and Friends, it's America's receptive voice. Brian Killmead. Hey, welcome back everyone to the latest moments of the Brian Kill Meet Show. This hour, a lot of talent. Frank Siller has done more for 9-11 victims and their families, and now military and cop families than everybody else that I know of over the last 21 years since his brother died in the 9-11 attacks.

Frank Siller, as we come up on 21 years since those attacks, we have in-studio Charlie Hurd, Fox News contributor, wonderful guy, he's all over the channel, and Rich Lowry, editor of National Review at the bottom of the hour. Um so before we get to Charlie and his latest thoughts and all the breaking news. And there's a lot today. It's very exciting. If you could see me on t on radio, I'm tingling because the Obamas are going back to the White House for the official unveiling of their portraits in the East Room.

I don't know why they didn't go during the Trump years and maybe they just got finished now. Victory.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. Everyone has to do their part to help step up for just a few more days. Please turn your thermostat up to 78 degrees or higher and avoid to the extent possible using any really large appliances. Energy idiocy.

California and the cutting edge green energy push is rolling blackouts imminent and a demand for stopping electricity usage. That's awesome. This is our electricity energy future. I don't think Americans will stand for it or sweat through it. Number two.

Every Republican should put the word Biden in front of their opponent.

So it's the Biden-Warnick ticket, it's the Biden-Fetterman ticket, it's the Biden-Kelly ticket. And just make sure everybody understands these people are all part of the same machine. That is Newt Gingrich, who knows a thing or two about politics. 2022 is heating up as the Masters tries to get Senator Kelly on the debate stage in Arizona and Dr. Oz in a desperate hunt for the hoodie-wearing Bernie Sanders clone John Fetterman to get him to square off on any stage and find out once and for all if he's capable of actually holding this job after his stroke.

Number one. You tweeted Trump stole an election. You tweeted Brian Kemp stole an election. I was waiting, Peter, when you were going to ask me that question.

So let's be clear. This is not a speech of concession. I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. He knows. Election denial, not a Donald Trump-driven threat to democracy.

Evidence clear from Biden's press secretary to Stacey Ames to Hillary Clinton. It's been in practice for decades.

So why is Trump labeled ultra-maga, Trumpy extremist, and a threat to democracy now? Charlie Hurt, I'm going to pose you that question. Why is they pretending that Donald Trump invented the election challenge? Because it works, because they've got the media on their side and they can get away with making the claim. And it worked for them.

It worked for them in 2020, so they're going to keep doing it. But I love her explanation. This is her explanation for it is: this is ridiculous, meaning that no one should take her seriously. But everybody should take Donald Trump seriously. That's why this is a ridiculous comparison, which leads to another question: well, why are you White House's hooks person?

Corrine Jean-Pierre tweeted this out december seventeenth, twenty sixteen. Stolen emails, stolen drone, stolen election. Welcome to the world of hashtag unprecedented Trump. Nice. And this didn't come up with the background check in the interview.

How about they don't care? April 2nd, 2020, Brian Kemp stole the gubernatorial election from Georgians and Stacey Abrams.

So this is embarrassing. I mean, most people are playing this, so I mean, they are bringing this up. Not as much as Fox is because I can't believe other people haven't even thought to bring this up. Yeah. The AP or somebody else.

Yeah, and we've known about it for some time. But I love, you know, I get it. You know, you can't help but cringe every time KGP comes to the she is unprepared. She doesn't know anything. She's in the deep end of the pool.

She shouldn't be. But she's actually a pretty good reflection of her boss. And in that respect, you know, I don't know, as a lifelong. Newspaper guy, I want my spokesperson to be a reflection of the person in his office. And I think she does a good job of that.

And that's why, you know, you can't tell me they didn't know about this. They knew about this. They don't care. It doesn't matter to them. They know that they're not going to be held account for it.

Charlie, you know, there's people that get themselves in trouble. I mean, we know you grant. We know Schwarzenegger got caught with his housekeeper. Yeah. Bill Clinton gets caught deposing.

So what happens is you need a crisis manager. There's no good answer, but you have a strategy. One strategy is, I admit it, I was wrong. Another strategy is I never did it.

Well, that's problematic. Number three is explain yourself.

So let's hear how she explains these tweets, cut one. You tweeted Trump stole an election, you tweeted Brian Kemp stole an election, if denying election results is extreme now.

So let's be really clear. That comparison that you made is just ridiculous. I was talking specifically at that time of what was happening with voting rights and what was in danger of voting rights. That's what I was speaking to at the time. That's not even, I mean, that's the point.

Right, right.

So it's not even an option. Making up what you did in writing. Yeah, but I mean think about it and and you know you know, coming at at politics from the perspective a of a of a You know, somebody's been in newspapers forever. There is a o a um a laziness and um softness that comes when you have the media on your side all the time. You're never, you know, the one thing I will say about Republican spokespeople is that they are forced to.

Bring their A game every single day because they get challenged on everything. They could be talking about how the sun is going to rise tomorrow and they're going to get challenged about it. And it makes them sharper and better. Among Democrats, especially with this administration, the guy didn't even have to campaign. He sat in his basement for a campaign, which, of course, John Fetterman is trying to repeat that.

And we now know what happens when you elect somebody from their basement. But. But th this is you know, th th they get they get no sharpness, they get no uh they they're never forced to answer real questions, and then you wind up with somebody like KGP.

So just on that note, the President of the United States, even on Twitter, didn't do as much, I didn't listen to the whole speech, but didn't do as much on Friday at the former President of the United States, talk about 2020. But if he was going to talk about 2020 in a way that I think would resonate, my humble opinion would be the FBI sitting on a story and Pfizer sitting on a vaccine. And how would that have changed how people voted? And now the fact is the FBI, you have much more developments. Tony Bobolinski being interviewed for five hours, and his point man was none other than Tim T.

Bolt, the soon-to-be disgraced FBI agent. No, and and all of those things are the the reason people like you and me are still outraged about The way 2020 played out. The problem with those, w you know, it th th it The Trump rallies are carnivals. It's a big circus. It's so much fun.

And the crowd loves this stuff. And he goes into it and he gets into it. And, you know, the problem, of course, is it allows the media, who despise him, to focus on the things that, you know, whatever they want to focus on. When you give two hours of an interview and then allow the media to edit it down to one soundbite, they're not going to pick the one that's best for you. But that crowd was pretty amazing, especially as compared to Monday's crowd with the sitting president of the United States.

No, he still has. No, the idea, I mean, I don't see anybody on either side of the aisle right now that has the kind of enthusiasm that Trump has right now. And he has had all along. And all of the arguments, it's weird. All of the arguments for Trump.

in 2016, I think, are are still in play today. Obviously, you've got a much better bench around him. You've got other Republicans who I think are very who have tapped into it and have picked up the issues that Trump brought to the table. And then, of course, you also on the other side of the aisle, you have the same situation where you have all of the elements that made Joe Biden the nominee in 2020 are still in play. And it's like we're sort of locked in in Groundhog Day.

Are Democrats really going to go to Bernie Sanders? No, they're not. Who are they going to go to? I don't know who they're going to go to. Yeah, they don't have.

I mean, Gavin Newsom would be the guy, but he's not going to take on the president. He's got a terrible record in California. He looks like somebody who would cast as the president, but knowing what he's done, he's totally inept. Bad mayor. His own family moved to Florida because they couldn't stand the way.

They heard that. The way their son-in-law was running the state during COVID.

So a friend of mine was at the gate to DeSantis. Gave money to DeSantis. A friend of mine from Axios was at the rally, who's been at many rallies before. He said this to me, and For Trump. The rally was fascinating.

The energy, the anger is extremely high post-raid. I can't see anybody taking the nomination from DJT.

So that is somebody who's not dug in, but Pompeo's in Iowa. Uh it says he's got a team in Iowa. I think Tom Cotton's moving forward, and I heard from a pretty good source yesterday: DeSantis announced this in January. Yeah, so. And here's the thing about, you know, and obviously, you know, Republicans have a great field of options.

All of whom have tremendous futures, whether it's Pompeo or DeSantis or Christinoam or any of these people. Nikki Haley. Any of these people. The problem is that, and we're kind of seeing it play out right now with something like this raid.

So it's not enough to be right on all the issues. At some point, you know, you're going into a knife fight with people who don't play by rules. And And when you look back at the four years that Trump was in the White House, it's remarkable the things that he managed to get done. People think Trump is the only one who's going to get that type of blitz. Are they wrong?

Oh, I think no, I think the I do think they're wrong. I think the reason that they go after that they have gone after Trump like this is it's not because he's some sort of radical. It's not because he can be vulgar. It's because he's effective. It's because he's a centrist.

He's not a conservative. He's never been a conservative. He's just common sense, middle of the road, and appeals to Democrats. He's not an extremist. That's what makes the MAGA argument so ridiculous.

Right. And they try to portray him as an extremist exactly because he's not an extremist, which makes him a threat to both parties. And that's why they despise him. And so I think that, yeah, they hate Trump more than they hate anybody else. But that's only because Trump is effective.

I think that if a guy like Ron DeSantis comes along and manages to be as effective As Trump is, and I don't know that the jury's still out on that on it. on a national stage. But if if he does, They're going to, if you're making stuff up about somebody, then you can make it up about anybody. Granted, Trump sort of plays into it because he engages and he wants to pick up. He makes some unforced errors, too.

Yes, of course. But among those unforced errors is part of the guy's magic that he's willing to go after people about these things. Charlie Hurt, in a matter of moments, when we come back, Charlie, I want to bring up the Mar-a-Lago raid, what the Washington Post wrote about last night, and why the special master has the Department of Justice beside himself. You're listening to Brian Killmee Show coming up, surely Rich Lowry. Not that he's better than Charlie Hurt.

And if he was, I wouldn't say it in front of him. And then Frank Siller. Back in a moment. Both sides, all opinions. It's Brian Killmead.

Merrick Garland stood before the American people and he said, We will speak through our filings, not through leaks. And yet it's been one salacious, manipulated, fabricated leak after another. And if he cared, which he doesn't, but if he cared at all about justice in America, he would be impaneling a grand jury tonight to investigate the leakers in his own agency who are the ultimate perversion of justice in America.

Well, Stephen Miller on Laura Ingram last night, responding to the revelation in the Washington Post that highly classified documents were held at Mar-a-Lago and they contained foreign nuclear secrets that only a cabinet-level official or higher could authorize. One thing, Eric, we had Marco Rubio answer this right at the last block of Fox and Friends. He said that that's a ridiculous statement because there are certain things that are Are classified and ultra-classified, and he was never even briefed. And he's in the gang of eight. Charlie Hurts here, Charlie.

Washington Post gets this story one day after a special master is named by a judge that Trump appointed. Is there panic at the Department of Justice for this to leak out? I know it's totally irresponsible to do it. Yeah, I think that it's certainly a problem for them. But again, I've gotten to the point where I am so cynical about all of it.

I don't think that they care. I really don't think that they care. I don't think DOJ cares. I really don't. I think that they are prosecuting a case.

Well, the special master threw them off because now they've got to answer to them and slow down and not touch documents. They thought they had run of the place. But again, I'm very, to me, this is a little bit like releasing the redacted version of the affidavit. I'm not really convinced that this is going to lead to more justice or clarity, given the larger situation, given the zeal with which they are clearly trying to pursue Trump. And I believe that they're going for an indictment.

In order to for for political purposes. But the no, but but but You know, whether that, you know, these leaks, I think, are perfectly indicative. Of the politicization of this investigation. And not only, and you know, at one point there was talk that the documents contained crossfire hurricane records that Trump was trying to preserve in order to defend himself against the this DOJ in back going back as far as twenty sixteen.

Well, the the flip side of that is those documents are not only important to Donald Trump in defending himself against the DOJ, They're also important to DOJ. Because they reveal a lot of really bad things that DOJ did in 2016, whether it's lying about thing lying on official efforts to spy on the Trump campaign, or actually spying on somebody running for office, or you know.

So, the idea that Trump is the only one that has sort of a vested interest in those documents. It's it's pre it's it's pretty frightening actually to think about. No doubt about it. I think a couple of things are happening. Number one, Trump makes things a lot easier on himself.

He just says, hey, guys, these are the boxes I want. Make sure I can take them. You know, whatever reason. I want them for my library. I want them for my archives.

I want them in case a case is brought up against me. That would have helped. Number two, you could solve this problem forever, and it should be. Before a president leaves, Uh, have National Archives mutual officer come out and just and just go over stuff. Just say, listen, you could take this, you can't take that.

Done. This is a controversy because of their lack of procedure and not saying necessarily the White House. There should be a National Archives procedure there. And they go, Trump goes, Yeah, I need these. Mark Meadows says I need these six boxes.

Archives looks at him and goes, I'd like to push back on this. And then you get an arbitrator to decide who gets it. And we don't have Charlie Hurt and Brian Kilmedar talking about this. We're talking about inflation. We're talking about crime.

We're talking about the border. All disasters. But I'm willing to acknowledge that this is a breakdown of procedures, even on the part of President Trump. I'm sure that he took some records. I would not be surprised if we find out that records he took, he was not supposed to take.

No doubt about it. There's a lot of imprecision that goes on in an administration like Donald Trump's. But the idea that it's going to become such a federal case that the FBI raids the private home, goes through the former First Lady's underwear drawer in order to take their passports. This is nuts. This is lunacy.

This is third world banana republics. That's why, what's a big deal? Special masters can make it better. Just go through it. Give the president back.

You have more faith than I do. Give the president back his tax stuff. Give him back his passport and give him back everything.

This is the Brian Kill Me Show. But he knows that I've been. From day one, empathetic to his condition. As a physician who's dealt with stroke and heart failure, I know how challenging it can be to bounce back. But the reality is, you haven't expressed yourself in any capacity about what these debates are going to look like.

I mean, share with me what I can do to help you debate. What concessions need to be made? I'd love to consider them, talk them through. My goal and yours, John Fetterman, should be to educate the people of Pennsylvania. But it undermines democracy, and he doesn't even want to answer questions from the press or from the voters.

And democracy is built on us asking difficult questions of each other to really figure out where the truth lies. And by the way, that was the case. You don't win unless you talk and make yourself available until President Biden won by not being available. But that had everything to do with the pandemic. Rich Lowry, editor of Nash Review, wrote about this in the Nash Review, where he talked about Fetterman and his condition.

The guy was unrude. He did win his nomination, even getting a stroke. But after the stroke, he has not been the same. Rich, it's flat out. Nobody thinks he's the same after a stroke.

Can he even do the job? Should that matter? matter. Yeah, well of course it should matter and that's a real question. I think Oz, what he said there, made a lot of sense and the tone was perfect.

I think his campaign has struggled a little bit to get the tone right on this because occasionally they've seen overly sarcastic or mocking of Fetterman. You know, it's not his fault that he had a stroke and everyone should want him to recover as quickly as possible, but he has trouble talking. We've seen that. You know, he's been back out on the campaign trail for very brief appearances, but he oftentimes garbles his words and he can't understand the spoken word necessarily. He uses closed captioning to do Zoom interviews with the press.

So that's the reason why a debate would be so hard for him. But that's the reason why also doing the job would be so hard for him. I mean, the cynical view of a senator is all a senator does is talk, right? But obviously a huge part of the job is talking on the Senate floor, at press conferences, at hearings, to constituents, and listening as well. And he would maybe he'll be totally back up to snuff in two months, three months, six months.

a year, but we don't know. At the moment, I don't think he'd be able to do the job effectively.

So, I want to tell you in response: this is what the Fetterman camp said to Dr. Oz, who said this guy's not available, he doesn't make sense, and his schedule is so light, it doesn't seem like he can do it. He said just yesterday, John marched for over two hours in the rain in Pittsburgh, Labor Day Parade, and spoke at two other events afterwards. Anyone who says John Spent should speak to anyone who's seen John speak knows that while he's still recovering, he's more capable of fighting for Pennsylvania than Dr. Oz will ever be.

And anyone who's seen Dr. Oz speak knows he's a complete fraud. We have seen repeatedly that we are up to, we're open to debating Oz, and we're talking about talking to the network. And let's be clear: this isn't about debates, this is about mocking John for having a stroke because they got nothing else and because they don't want to talk about the fact that Oz wants to ban abortion and believe it's a form of murder. First off, it's hard to have empathy when the campaign that you're showing empathy for attacks you personally continuously.

That's pretty much been effective so far, but it's also sobering because you've got to go back to the other guy and then let people think that you're not cruel. Yeah, but I think it's possible and I think that clip was a great example of how it's possible. But yeah, look, Federman, the campaign has been based almost entirely on mockery of Oz on social media because Federman hasn't been out there. And if they're maintaining that Federman is back close to where he was, do a live T V interview on set. He did an interview on MSNBC, but it was via remote, and I just wonder whether he had notes or prompts.

and do the debate. Do the debate. And I just I doubt they are going to do it. I think it's too hard for him. And I do think this now this is an issue that has trac traction.

Odds his polling looks a little better. There are those horrifying double digit numbers that he was down by during the summer. It's tightened up four or five points. And I think that this line of attack has traction. Yeah, we'll see.

Talk about Blake Masters also trying to get Mark Kelly on stage, the astronaut who I thought had so much promise. And I thought, wow, Democrats got to themselves a great candidate. What a great resume. What he's given to the country. And he's so smart.

And he's been invisible. Yeah. Well, that's the case of he's ahead and he doesn't want to mess anything up. And Blake Masters is underfunded. You know, he's caught now in this dispute between Mitch McConnell and Peter Thiel.

Or Mitch McConnell's like, well, you fund him. You know, he's your guy. And also, they seem to be reallocating the outside groups for funding elsewhere. You know, J.D. Vance, who's been underfunded as well.

So Masters is in a lot of trouble, and I'm not hopeful about that. You don't think it's a three-point race? I kind of doubt it. Maybe it is. If it is, fantastic.

I'll take it. And that speaks to an environment that's maybe still more favorable to Republicans than we're hearing about in the press. But I I it's it's down my list, you know. I thi I think Oz I think Oz is gonna win before Blake Masters does. Here's Blake Masters yesterday with Laura Cut12.

What I think we're seeing is propaganda. This is the media's desired narrative. They are trying to make this election all about abortion. The Democrats, Mark Kelly in Arizona, he wants to just talk about abortion. because they don't want to talk about the wide open southern border.

They don't want to talk about double-digit inflation. They don't want to talk about how our kids are being taught transgender ideology in our schools. They don't want to talk about their failure, so they're trying to jit up outrage on the abortion issue. And I just don't believe that that is going to be the issue. Uh but maybe The border is.

What do you know about Arizona? What can we expect from Arizona this time around?

Well, one, that's another good answer. And he caught a lot of flack for adjusting his website and his position on abortion, I think, appropriately. He had a website that was kind of a pre-Dobbs website, and he had a pre-Dobbs position on abortion that was more symbolic than defensible once it became a real live political issue.

So this is what I think all Republicans should do: pick a gestational age that you think is defensible and appropriate. Stick your flag there, defend that position, and shoot at the other side for distracting from other issues the way masters. Did and/or being extremists because they all support abortion up to nine months and want to federally fund it. And the border is going to play in Arizona. But again, I just think that one is the four toss-up races, that might be the one I'm most pessimistic about.

So when you look at the President's attack plan against to win in the midterms, it would be Ultra MAGA, MAGA, Trumpers, Trumpies.

So whatever he wants to do, he wants to do it. Then he finds himself walking things back in between appearances. The word is that Joe Biden's doing this himself. This is what he wanted to do, make Trump the enemy, thinks this is the best thing to do. Is it effective?

Because we're not talking about the border. We're not talking about crime. We're not talking about Afghanistan. I think so. I think it's probably the best play they have.

Hit abortion, and that issue has had more traction than I would have thought so far. Talk about Trump to try to get the media to take the bait and talk about that instead of any other issues, and do anything else you can to try to gin up your base, which obviously they've been doing the last several months with the student loan forgiveness being the most prominent example. And I still don't think it's going to save them, but I think they've made some progress. I think they'll still lose the House, and I would still bet on Republicans winning the Senate, although that's a bit of a coin toss. But if Republicans in a position if they just have they don't need a red wave, if they have a standard midterm kind of election, pick up 20, 25 House seats, you know, that will be the biggest majority Republicans have had in a very long time, and win one.

Uh Senate seat. You you've taken the Senate.

So the the bar is not particularly high to uh end Democratic control of Washington.

Well, you got to hold the Wisconsin. And you have to hold Pennsylvania. And you have to hold Ohio. And you have to find a way to get one more seat. And maybe it is Arizona, maybe it is possibly Washington State.

Other people point to Colorado. Uh Rich, what are you thinking? Yeah, those those are sort of second tier, but people should pay attention to Washington State. That's an interesting one. Colorado, two.

They're not the top of the list. Nevada, I think Republican Adam Locksalt is going to win in Nevada. And I still think Herschel, although it's been rocky, he he's not going to be a a LBJ type in the Senate, you know, master of the Senate, obviously. He's not a a huge policy guy. I think he's a good man.

But I I think he's going to barely get over the top in in Georgia in part on Brian Kemp's coattails. And that assuming you win Wisconsin and that's that's that's touch and go, but Ron Johnson's done it before, that that should be enough, even if Oz loses Pennsylvania. Yeah, I hear you. It's going to be interesting, but definitely 60 plus days. Lastly, anytime you're talking about MAGA agenda and not talking about crime, the border, and inflation, I think Republicans are losing.

Should they find a way to do that? Yeah. I mean, just pivot and hit it. And don't take the bait, the FBI search. Let Trump litigate it.

Don't get into it yourself and talk about the issues. At the end of the day, are the issues that people really care about. And that's the advantage I think still Republicans have here, is the most important issues to people, the kitchen table type issues, the things that have them fearful and have degraded their quality of life, Republicans have a big advantage on.

So just hit those things as hard as you can. And I still think this will be a good election for them. I do think it's going to be definitely going to be exciting, and I think strategy will have everything to do with what comes out in the end. And the better candidate wins. Doesn't mean necessarily the most experienced.

The better candidate speaks most authentically. We'll see it out there. It's a long job interview. Rich Larry will be writing it all in the Nash Review and, of course, coming on our show. Rich, thanks.

Cool. Thanks so much, Brian. We come back. It's been 21 years since the 9-11 attacks. Frank Siller doesn't forget.

I know you don't forget. We want to make sure the rest of America doesn't forget. He's also got an exciting program to announce. CEO of Tunnels and Towers Foundation in studio in a matter of moments. You're listening to the Brian Kilmead Show.

Expanding your knowledge base. It's the Brian Kilmead Show. From his mouth to your ears, it's Brian Kilmead. Hey, welcome back, everyone. It's coming up on 21 years since the 9-11 attacks, and that never slips the mind of Frank Siller, the CEO of Tunnels and Towers Foundation.

You can visit t2t.org, especially this time of year, and prove that you don't forget. But one thing about Tunnels and Towers, Frank, you guys never stop expanding. I mean, I couldn't believe what you were talking about this morning. Yeah. Yeah.

We are proud to announce at Tunnel to Towers, we have a new initiative, the Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute. We are going to make sure that schools throughout the country have curriculum to teach these new generation kids that know nothing about 9-11. It is important. Our first mission at the Tunnel to Tower is to make sure we never forget and honor the sacrifice that was made 21 years ago. And this is a new thing.

Look, we have a 9-11 exhibit that goes around the country. It's a rolling exhibit. A tractor trailer at 9-11. You mean Tunnels and Towers does? Yes, it's 93 feet, and it becomes an 1,100-square-foot museum.

We make sure that goes all around. It's manned by firefighters that were there on 9-11, and they tell the story of 9-11. Do they go to schools? Exactly. They go to a lot of schools, different fairs, you know.

You can go to t2t.org and look at it. You can request it for an event. And it's an important tool to make sure that we teach all the acts of heroism. On nine eleven.

So you were shocked at how few commemorations there were in schools and how many schools have that as part of your curriculum.

So that's what prompted this action, Carol. Absolutely. When we found out that only sixteen states A mandate teaching something. about 9-11, not even a curriculum, just something. And only three states From K through twelve.

Mandate a curriculum to be taught. I was appalled. My team was appalled. We got. Great scholars together to create this curriculum, and we couldn't be more proud that we're rolling it out.

Right. 21 years later, people really have to remember. You said a lot of these kids are now grown up, that had it, lived it, that was in the news, now becomes part of history. And I was just thinking about some of the people I've been talking to now with the evacuation of. of Afghanistan, the biggest disaster in American military history, single handedly decided by this President over his military advisers and how those people who went to Afghanistan to get Bin Laden and to make sure that Al Qaeda is not there, Al Qaeda is coming back.

I mean, that really must hit home for you. Without them, your brother's alive. Yeah, now, look, you know. It's very upsetting because I worry about it happening again. And that's one of the reasons why you got to make sure that we never forget.

You know, this year at our Tunnel to Towers run, Which is always the last Sunday in September here in New York, which we retrace what my brother did 21 years ago. He ran through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel with his fire gear on his back. to get to ground zero, where saving others and gave up his life. We are going to recognize the thirteen families. That were lost, the service members that were lost in Afghanistan the last 13, seven of those families are going to be joining us.

At the run. And uh we have a special day. Uh and then we're also gonna uh recognize and honor the twelve horsemen that rode into Afghanistan. Um they did a movie on it. 12 strong.

Yeah. It's incredible. And these guys were told. You know, you're not coming home. You're going to die, basically.

But you're going to die for your country, and you're going to go die because you're going to protect our homeland. And they volunteered to go in there to do it. You know, this Sunday, Uh we have uh a prayer service down at ground zero. And at seven o'clock in the morning, it's a closed service. It's only inv invitation only.

Uh we have seven of those horsemen coming.

Well, to pray with us and to be there. We're going to be reading Bible scriptures. A gold star widow, 9-11. Family And another family that's lost their loved one, first responded from 9/11 illnesses. They're all going to read scripture.

And about talking about how good will overcome evil and courage, how you need courage in life in every aspect of your life. And it's going to be a very important thing because America needs to pray that we come together. And most Americans are together. Frank Siller here for Talented Towers Foundation. Go to t2t.org.

You can read about the organization, all the things you're involved with. You know, you need their support. That's how they're fueled. But you expanded.

Now it's about also police officers' families. And you made that clear a few years ago when you saw what was going on in this country, the disrespect towards the men and women in blue. And that's not easy to keep up with because the numbers are way too high.

So you pay off their mortgages. We pay off their mortgages.

So, since Texas Lou and Ramos, December 20th, 2014, when they were assassinated in New York City in their car. I went to visit them with former mayor Rudy Giuliani on Christmas Eve, and I told them we're going to pay off their mortgages because we heard they were worried about staying in their homes. I saw the difference that it made. And, you know, when it's the right thing to do, you have no choice. You've got to do it.

And I saw it alleviate that worry about those families. That's why in America today, Every first responder, police officer, firefighter, law enforcement, everyone, you give your life in the line of duty and you have young children left behind, we are going to pay off your mortgage. 200 last year, 200 this year, and in addition to 500 comfort homes that we are building, and we are getting homeless veterans off the street.

So we are busy.

Well, Frank, all the years of noting and marking this day, it used to be just the footprints, the empty footprints was too unsafe to go down, then they would just outline then, then we're wondering when they're going to rebuild the area, and then when we're going to get this, the museum that commemorates that day. I think the museum is just fantastic. It's a great commemoration of what happened. Are you pleased with the way things have reconformed down there?

Well, the museum is beautiful. It tells the whole story. The memorial with the crying pools are beautiful. It has the names of everyone who perished. Right in the footprints without the city.

Right in the footprints, right? In the South Tower, my brother's name with his other Squad One brothers that died that day. Yes, I'm happy what they did, but we must never forget the sacrifice that was made, and that's what the Tunnel of the Tower is there for, to make sure we never forget. And Frank, you never stop. t2t.org, help Frank out, help everybody out.

From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City. Always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Thanks so much for being here, everybody. It's the Brian Kilmead Show, 1-866-408-7669.

We, of course, take your calls there. We're coming to you from 48th and 6th in Midtown Manhattan, heard around the country, around the world. David Limbaugh, the brother of Rush Limbaugh, is going to be with us in the studio. He's got a great message. He's got to continue on his Christian books.

Also, want to talk about a year later with him and what it is like with such an iconic figure passing away. What I think is a way too young age. We know it was just over a year ago when that happened. He was a big supporter of Donald Trump along the way, and maybe the foremost Republican and conservative thinker. But for now, let's get to the big three.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. Everyone has to do their part to help step up for just a few more days. Please turn your thermostat up to 78 degrees or higher and avoid to the extent possible using any really Large appliances. Unbelievable, right?

Energy idiocy. California and cutting-edge green energy push has rolling blackouts imminent in California and a stopping of electricity usage demand. Is this our energy future, our green future? I don't think Americans will stand for it or sweat through it. Number two: every Republican should put the word Biden in front of their opponent.

So it's the Biden-Warnick ticket, it's the Biden-Fetterman ticket, it's the Biden-Kelly ticket. And just make sure everybody understands these people are all part of the same machine. 2022 is heating up as Masters tries to get Senator Kelly on the debate stage in Arizona. Dr. Oz, the same with the Bernie Sanders clone hoodie wearing John Fetterman, to get him to square off in any type of debate.

And the questions continue: Is he ready to be a senator after his stroke? Number Wrong. You tweeted Trump stole an election. You tweeted Brian Kemp stole an election. I was waiting, Peter, when you were going to ask me that question.

So let's be clear. This is not a speech of concession. I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. He knows. Really?

Election denial, not a Donald Trump-driven threat to democracy. Evidence clear from the press, from the Biden press secretary to Stacey Abrams, to Hillary Clinton. It's been a practice for decades.

So why is Trump labeled an ultra-maga Trumpy extremist? And they are not a threat to democracy. With me right now is a man who wants to preserve it and our history and spends a lot of time on his 1776 Project PAC. He is Ryan Guderski. He is the founder of the 1976 Project Political Action Committee, which campaigns to stop the teaching of CRT in U.S.

schools. Author of the 2020 book, They're Not Listening, How the Elites Created the National Populist Revolution. Ryan, welcome back. Thank you for having me. Ryan, why is it important to preserve 1776?

Right, so I started the 1776 project back because like many Americans throughout 2020, my family's children were going to school virtually. And parents for the first time got to be in the classroom with kids as these teachers, many of them, you know, some of them very good-hearted, but the administrators were pushing very radical things on policing. nine-year-old godson was forced to read a book called Race Cars at nine years old about how police only target black cars, not white cars, and teaching about police profiling to very, very young children and implanting this idea in their head. And I always say critical race theory is not necessarily taught in school, but it's practiced in school.

So we see things across the country in red counties and in blue counties, things like privilege walks, things like now in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where white teachers are fired before black teachers are or any other minority teacher are. In Atlanta, Georgia, parents are now suing school districts for segregating classrooms. All over the country now, they have non-white activities after school where whites cannot participate. Things like this. Drive a wedge between people, between a country.

And if you believe you are taught from the moment you are a small child that this country is inherently racist, either against you or that you are part of a racist system because you're white, you will not want to invest in this country going forward in the future. Anything we won't, we won't, yeah, we won't have a country, basically.

Well, I mean, we're looking at, I've been covering the last few weeks what's going on at the Madison's home, James Madison, Madison's home in Montiple, Monteplyer over in Virginia, as well as Monticello with Jefferson's home. They're trying to take Jefferson and Madison and say they're made up of the slaves they had. And then we find out in the University of Virginia, some students want Jefferson's the buildings that he designed down and his presence removed from the school he created. To me, this is so much more than just immaturity. I think it's an intentional takedown of our foundation.

Well, they want to take away our heroes. If we get rid of Columbus and Jefferson and Washington, like they got rid of Robert E. Lee and members of the Confederacy, if they say every national hero we ever have is illegitimate, it becomes harder to sit there and defend the institution of the country. This is what socialist and communist movements have done across history: one of the first things they do is they get rid of all your heroes. Teddy Roosevelt is no longer at the American History Museum in New York City when he preserved huge portions of natural wildlife in the United States.

This is their mentality because they sit there and they want to rob you of anything you could possibly be proud of when it comes to the United States of America. And that's why the 1776 Project PAC, MIPAC, we did over 135 school board elections in the last year and a half. We flipped 95 school board places. We were involved in Florida. We flipped six school districts in Florida.

We flipped four in Texas. We've won in Blue County, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania last year, a county that has not voted Republican since George H.W. Bush. We've won six school board seats in that county. I think this is a possibility to change things because parents, regardless of their feelings of big issues like abortion or Russia or whatever.

Education is a fine line where they sit there and say, You know what? I moved to this community because of school districts. You're not going to mess with my children and the possibility of the money. And that doesn't even go into the idea of merit and how these school districts are abolishing testing and standards because they're not school districts are too Asian or too white or too diverse enough. And they're destroying the ability to sit there and have.

Thriving schools. No question about it. Ryan, so you targeted Florida. Where else are you targeting? We know with what's happened in Virginia, that's really, to me, where it seems to have first started.

Where else are you going? Where else are you focusing?

So after Florida, we had 350 candidates running for school board that asked. For our support and our endorsement, big states, Virginia, Michigan, Florida, Texas, Rhode Island, North Carolina, and California are places we're all looking at for this November election. Illinois starts in next April, so we have our eyeset on that as well. I would hope my goal is by in the next three years to have over a thousand seats slips across the entire country.

So if you can go to 1776projectpack.com, donate to the PAC if you can, or if you're running for school board, tell us where you're running if you want to apply for an endorsement. Or if you just know of things happening in your school district that seem fishy or weird or that they're promoting critical race theory in some way, we'd love to hear about it because we love to highlight that and promote it so the general public knows about it.

So when they first started with Columbus, as far as I can remember, let's take Columbus's statue. You know, he didn't treat the Indians that he found in the Caribbean too well. And we don't like how he ruled once he discovered America, which, by the way, he. He changed the world. People have described what he did and the risks he took as like going to the moon the first time, only more dangerous.

But let's go demean him and go, well, what's the big deal about Columbus? He never actually made it to America anyway. Then all of a sudden, they said, well, wait, we had a problem with Confederate statues.

Okay, Robert E. Lee, one of our best generals, made a terrible decision. I got it. And they even took him out of West Point. They go, well, that's where it stops.

And Donald Trump came out and said, Donald, Jefferson and Washington have big slave owners. Are they next? And everyone laughed. No, they're not next. They are next.

And they're coming. They're coming for them. Right. And you know what the funny thing is, I mean Trump was 100% right. But when they sit there and talk about Columbus, the biggest irony is they speak about Native Americans as if it was Woodstock and everyone was performing peace, love and dancing around trees when human sacrifice was the standard.

Pre-Christian America, Columbus and the Spanish and then the French and English bringing Christianity actually saved millions of Native American lives. Yes, diseases came, but anyone who discovered America would have brought diseases because they were just unethical, but they stopped human sacrifice. They stopped child sacrifice. They stopped cannibalism. Cannibalism was widely practiced throughout the now, what is the United States, but all of North America by Native American tribes.

The idea and the idea that for some reason white people were the only ones who practiced slavery, which is the broad thinking. For some reason, human beings since the beginning of time have all practiced some of the same things. They all set up their own government, their own religion, and they all practice slavery. For some reason, this is a dark thing that the human race did, not just whites on blacks, and not just whites on Native Americans, but they have to demonize members of the past to sit there and want to wipe them clean. Start their new Marxist revolution, really.

So, you know, one thing I started doing, I wrote these history books in George Washington's Secret Six, Thomas Jefferson, Tripoli Pirates, Andrew Jackson, Miracle of New Orleans, Sam Houston, The Alamo Avengers, now the president freedom fighter, Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and the battle to save America's soul. And what I did is, when I found out, when I went on book tours, I went to events, anything, I found people relieved. They said, no one's teaching history anymore. My kids aren't learning. And I'm thinking to myself, okay, that's interesting with Washington.

By the time I get up to Jackson, they go, they're teaching anti-American history.

So in the beginning, they were just forgetting about it, not going into detail about it, saying kids don't care about it. And then they start putting against it.

So now I put together these shows. In fact, the next one's going to be in Albany tomorrow, America Great from the Start. And I don't pretend that we're perfect. If I did that, that'd be as bad as pretending that American history is terrible. I talk about the stops and starts and why we are the greatest country ever and why you should be proud that these are the people that came before you.

And I found that people are relieved. Instead of saying, hey, can I be working? They just say thank you. Thank you for not ripping America. It's even gotten into sports.

We have to watch sports now and wonder why they're kneeling or why they're not coming out for the national anthem again. And I think it's embarrassing to a degree. You can't get away from it. But very few people, Ryan Guderski, do what you did, and that's found the 1776 PAC to fight back against it.

So I give you so much credit. Thank you so much. I appreciate that. And you know, it is absolutely true. And the scary thing is, is yes, they're in history and they're in civics and they're in sports, but they're coming after the hard sciences next.

They're coming after math. There's at the University of Illinois at Champlain, one of the professors teaches about how to create Latinx, which is out, you know, their made up version of Latino, Latinx math, and black math and black science and feminist science. And this is how they want to really transform each other and art sciences. I've not heard that. She's an award-winning professor.

I forgot her name, top my head. University of Illinois at Champlain. And this is, they are coming into the hard sciences next. There is no end to this revolution. It is not just stopping.

It is the fundamental fight against all beliefs that come from liberalism and West, well, small L liberalism, liberalism and Western civilization. And this is, we are really in a huge, huge fight. And it really starts at the school.

So there are a few people in this fight. I'm one of them. I'm proud to be one of them. I think I've done a very, very good job. But we're only at the beginning.

It took decades to get to this point. It's going to take a couple of years to fight back and get and push back fully. But we're seeing it. I mean, we're seeing potential. Teachers who are woke and left us leave school districts when we flipped the seats, or when we won the Oklahoma superintendent race in Oklahoma for Ryan Walters, when we flipped school districts throughout Florida.

These very woke people who are in education, not to sit there and teach kids, but to make them soldiers in their ideology, they are leaving the profession. And that's our ultimate goal is to sit there and make it where kids go to school for the hardcore things and they learn, yes, America is not a perfect nation, but what other nation's legacy would you want to belong to? And Ryan, lastly, are there any Democrats who see the wisdom in your ways? Yeah, I mean, listen, we could not win in these Democrat districts if Democrats did not vote for us as well. In Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in Kansas City, throughout Hennepin County, outside of Minneapolis, we won districts.

Democrats, too, do not want their kids going to failing schools, and they don't want their kids going to schools where there's no specialized standards. And Asian and Hispanic parents, especially, do not want their kids to be told they're victims or they can't get ahead. He is Ryan Guderski, founder of the 1776 Project Political Action Committee. And help him out. Ryan, thanks for what you do.

We'll be in touch. Thank you. You got it. When we come back, I'll take your calls. I'll see you up there: 1-866-1866.

408-7669. And by the way, if you want to join me in Albany for 1776 night, just go to BrianKilme.com. I'll be at this legendary, this iconic egg auditorium, which looks awesome inside and out. Don't move. Brian Kilmeicho.

Expanding your knowledge base. It's the Brian Kilmead Show. A talk show that's real. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Again, we go back to people talking about the state of mind of the agents when they got in there, if that's even true.

What's the only reason to do that? If you're conducting a serious investigation, you don't hear anything about these investigations. The Justice Department won't even acknowledge that someone is under investigation or not under investigation. If someone's being investigated, you ask the Justice Department to say it's not true, they won't do it. They won't do it either way.

They won't comment, especially something when it involves a former president. And yet, in this particular case, every single day, someone in the Justice Department is leaking. Why would you leak? There's only one reason to leak this stuff, and that is to create a narrative. And why do you create a narrative?

For political purpose.

So every single day, they are proving that they are politicizing this by what they are doing, as opposed to allowing the pleadings and the case to work its way through and speak for itself. Senator Marco Rubio joined me on Fox and Friends earlier, and he was asked, too, about the new revelation of the Washington Post that there were nuclear plans of one country in particular that would take into Mar-a-Lago. And you said, listen, the fact that you say it's a top-secret negotiation, you fight so hard to keep away from a special master that you took his personal tax documents and health records out and his passport out. You went into his 16-year-old's room, and then when a special master is named, you're so ticked off, you go ahead and leak another story to the Washington Post. If it's so concerning, why are you so determined to get the narrative from the very compliant media?

And that's his point. It's not that should Donald Trump have taken this stuff? Likely not. I don't know the details because for the most part, the Trump team doesn't really answer. They shouldn't.

And for the most part, we always heard FBI doesn't talk about ongoing investigations. But if you read the New York Times and Washington Post, you get what they think is the story.

So there are some revelations that came out that is some top secret things. But for you to put together that picture of all the so-called documents that are documents that don't belong at Mar-a-Lago, and then the pushback from the special master saying he does retain, excuse me, for the judge who names the special master, which Certainly will be appealed by the Department of Justice. The special master is supposed to be an agreed-upon person to unbiasedly look at. All the material and decide what belongs, what's okay to keep, what's okay not to keep. And then you go, and if you decide you want to charge a former president for that, good luck.

You talk about dividing the country. Even William Barr, who's been very critical of the president, they're at odds now, said, Yeah, I wouldn't recommend you prosecute. And when Senator Lindsey Graham said what he said, he wasn't threatening violence if Donald Trump is indicted. What he's saying is the obvious. If you go ahead as the DOJ under Joe Biden, who's saying the most disparaging things possible about Donald Trump, and you unleash your Department of Justice to invade Mar-a-Lago and grab back paperwork, and then you want to indict that president, believe me, there are 74 million people who are not going to be pleased.

I am not predicting violence, but who wouldn't think, after what we've seen in the past, this is not getting out of control? Because people are on the edge when it comes to politics. Even people who never even cared before, it's now personal. That's what I've noticed. When we come back, somebody doesn't have to explain, that fact does not have to be explained to.

This whole family has lived it. David Limbaugh joins us along with Kristen Limbaugh. Together, they wrote a book called The Resurrected Jesus: The Church in the New Testament, also about politics and everything else going on in the world. You listen to the Brian Kill Me Show.

So glad you're here. A radio show like no other. It's Brian Killmead. I think the natural spirit. of the human being is freedom.

That's the natural spirit of our creation. That's the yearning that we have is to be free. And conservatism is simply freedom. Nobody can blow up that bond that Trump voters have. The Washington establishment to this day does not understand Donald Trump.

They don't understand his voters, and they're not curious to find out why. I've always been oriented. Um On the conservative side of things, never ever wavered, was never tempted by anything else. We're Americans, which means we have the freedom To invest in whatever it is that makes us happy. That's in our founding documents.

Well, that is a little rush Limbaugh from the special he had. He's such a presence, too. And firms, if you're on radio, you always try to live up to that. But I have news for you, you never will. David Limbaugh knows that.

He's in our studio along with his daughter, Kristen Limbaugh Bloom, who's the new mom. Kristen, it's great to see you. I've never seen you with the headsets on, but I've seen you in the building for the longest time. You still work with Sean, right? I do, yes, and it's wonderful to be here.

And now you had a wonderful time working with your dad on the Resurrected Jesus, the church in the New Testament. David, Is it was it as Great as it seems to be, before we talk about your your brother and your uncle, to work with your daughter. Unbelievable. I mean, it's a kind of a dream that I've had. She is Been so spirit-filled as a Christian and such an inspiration to me.

In her faith, and much earlier than I ever did it, that. I and she started writing for Fox, the website, and and she's started her own website, Haploose or however you pronounce it, you guys, you weird names. And I just thought, you know what? This might help jump-start her writing career. I'd like to help her with this.

Because you know she's a good writer. Awesome writer. Yeah, this isn't. This isn't. You know.

Benefits for no reason. It's just, she actually made this book so much better than my previous books. And I thought those were pretty good, by the way. Right, yeah, I know they were great. And Kristen, in particular for you, did you grow up religious?

Did you grow up in a household where we're going to church every Sunday? Yes. Mom and Dad always raised us. With a strong foundation in Christianity, prayed with us every night. And so I always had a foundation of faith.

But when I went to college, you know, you kind of. Stray a little bit. You're trying to find yourself, and you ask yourself if what you've been taught as a young person is what you truly believe for yourself. And for me, I did discover that. And my faith became very personal, and I really started to see Jesus working in my life on a personal level.

I started reading the Bible and saying, Wow, He's speaking directly into my life. And so I had that revelation. And since then, He's continued to work in my life. And so to have the opportunity to share this with Dad and combine our different giftings and passions within the faith has been such a gift and so fun.

Well, I can imagine.

So, but take this on. There are biblical scholars who take on topics like this. You said you came to this religious side of you late. It wasn't early. Because Rush didn't really have.

The knowledge of the Bible that you had. And he didn't bring that to the show anyway. Yeah, and he. didn't study it that much. And so it was not that he wasn't Faithful, it's that he felt, I'm not going to talk about something I'm not really an expert on.

That's what he would always tell me. But you know, in the years before his death, after his diagnosis, He became closer and closer to God, and I am absolutely convinced of his salvation, and that's pretty gratifying. Wow. First, let's talk about this, and we'll talk about Russia after this.

So you decide to tackle what with this book? You go through Paul, and what was Paul doing that you feel need to be chronicled?

Well the First. I've written four Christian books before this. First one. My faith journey, Jesus on trial. Second one, the Emmaus Code.

Jesus in the Old Testament, the prophecies and all that. The third one was the True Jesus, which was a Consolidation of the Gospels in chronological order, going through the text. The fourth was Jesus is risen, which was the book of Acts, which is the history of the early church, and the first seven. Six epistles of the Apostle Paul. And what I did was go through the text, chapter and verse of the Bible, literally, verse by verse.

Kind of paraphrase and sometimes using the actual words of the Bible, interspersing it with commentary. Uh and my own insights. But this book is the the Final six epistles that Paul wrote.

So I wanted to complete that, and that's what she joined me on.

Now, the thing about it is. The whole purpose of these books is to draw people closer to the Bible.

So they'll read the Bible.

So it's not to impress the next biblical scholar. It's to ground it to the everyman. That's right. And every woman. That's right.

No, exactly. Because we are not. scholars. I'm a lay student. She's a lay student, and I found that when I taught Sunday school and all that, I could really.

Convey Points. I I I i the fact that I was an early skeptic Uh and I came to this kicking and screaming. I think it enabled me to better communicate to people who are in my position. And young Christians, and they're early in their walk. I can communicate in a way that the scholar, the theologian, the pastor may not be able.

I'm not saying I'm great at it. I'm just saying it's a different audience. And Kristen's so good at this too, and it was very complimentary.

So, Kristen, did Paul write things down? Yes. So he dictated as well to his understanding.

So is your goal to interpret what he was doing? His goal was to spread Christianity through Europe? Yes. Well, his goal was really to spread it through Europe and Asia as well. And I think what's so powerful about Paul is that he had He was so passionate about spreading the gospel all over the globe, and then he gets stuck in a prison cell and he's under house arrest when he's writing these letters to doing what?

For preaching the gospel. And so he's under arrest, and he is writing these letters to different churches, trying to encourage them, trying to beseech them, to correct them and teach them all the different things that Christ is trying to fix in these different churches, these modern churches. And what's so incredible is the way that God used these words that he's writing in prison. He's being confined, and yet now they are some of the most powerful books of the Bible that really resonate with people all over the world. And so it just goes to show that God can do.

Actually, this is a verse in the letter to the Ephesian church: more than all we ask or imagine, beyond our wildest imagination, when we submit. Our ways to him. And Paul's life exemplifies that.

So with that, did he witness the resurrection? No, no, he was um the he was a very uh Orthodox Jew. The Hebrew of Hebrews, he called himself. And he was a persecutor of the church. He hated Christianity.

Which makes him an unlikely candidate for being the greatest evangelist. Jesus encountered him on the Damascus Road and presented himself as a major.

So he knew who Jesus was. He met him. He met him face to face in a spiritual context.

So what converted him? That very experience. Jesus hit him with a lightning bolt figuratively on the Damascus Road. He was on his way to persecute, kill, and imprison Christians. And Jesus hit him.

And approached him there in a dramatic way. And then he went on to Damascus and was converted. And so for him, so he became an apostle. Yes. He was the 13th.

You know, he was. Not part of the original people that walked alongside Jesus during his life. Didn't even. Didn't make the cut for the last supper. No, but he ended up being the most.

The most effective evangelist. He wrote 13 books, epistles in the Bible, and his influence, especially doctrinally. I mean, he lays out Christian doctrine in the book of Romans and Ephesians better than any other biblical writer, in my view. John is amazing, too, but this in the Gospels, but he tells of what Jesus said. Paul wrote.

Really is inspiring in these words.

So, do you feel like you're almost going through history as well as going through the Bible? Do you feel like you're going through history, Kristen, when you're going when you're going through this? I do, and especially with Writing this book alongside dad because he's such a thorough researcher and he taught me his process. And so going through the different scholars and really reading every single line and verse over and over, reading the background to these the historical background to these letters has been so enriching and it really helps you understand the text in a new way. And it also helps you apply it to your own life because when you see that Paul was a real person, that he had real problems and he's still writing these things about overcoming the very real threats to his own life and to the growing church at the time.

It makes it all the more real and inspiring for our current issues that we're facing today. And lastly, David, because I hope you could stay for another segment. Yes. Because I want to talk about what's going on in the world. You're also a lawyer because we definitely need your legal expertise.

And Kristen, I think living and working with Sean, not living with Sean, excuse me. Working, because you're actually in separate states now.

Well, actually, working with Sean is what you do. Live and breathe this, and you're a producer here at Fox, The Resurrected Jesus. My last question is to you: and both of you could answer: what do you hope people get from this that they're not able to get from their church or the books that they've read? I think the Bible is intimidating for so many people. And it's a dawning test.

I don't want to open this. Where do I begin? The purpose of these books has always been to. Excite people about the Bible, to let them know the Bible really is the Word of God. When I discovered, when I had this epiphany that the Bible really is the Word of God, after studying all the evidence that it is, I realized I was holding in my hand the Word of God.

Wow, God is actually talking to me. I always thought this is an old book of principles and rules. No, it tells the story of real lives, imperfect people, and it tells the story of God's. God's love story for human beings. He created man.

Man fell. He sent his own son to die to redeem us, to live with him for eternity. That's the best love story in the world from a perfect God to imperfect people who had his own son become a human being. And so he was perfectly human, perfectly God, at the same time, dual realities, and perfectly unified so that he could save us. And Christ suffered more than any of us ever could.

We can't relate. We can't even see the invisible God. Christ is God as a human. He will always be human in God. We will see him in heaven and can always relate to him and go to him with our troubles.

I had a tough objective. I thought getting Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln in the same book without leaving out person card that quality. Your objective is much harder. Kristen, final thought on this? I just second everything, Dad said, but especially I hope people will read this and understand that the same Holy Spirit who lived inside Paul, who is so incredible, lives such an incredible life, lives inside of us when we accept Jesus.

And God can do so much with our lives. Lives and we trust and believe in him.

So I pray that they're encouraged to do amazing things for him. It's a readable version of the Bible: The Resurrected Jesus, David Limbaugh, and Kristen Limbaugh. Bloom, thanks so much. Don't move. We're going to come back more and talk about what's happening in the world and a little bit more about the book.

You're listening to the Brian Kill Meet Show. Educating, entertaining, enlightening. You're with Brian Kilmead. The more you listen, the more you'll know. It's Brian Killmead.

Conservatism has been so maligned. In state-run media for so many years. All we want is success for everybody, we want freedom for everybody. We understand that a great nation is made up of great people doing great things, ordinary people accomplishing Extraordinary things. We don't look at the American population with contempt and derision.

We don't look at a group of people and pick out the number of blacks in it and the number of whites and the number of women. We see Americans, we see human beings, we see potential. Liberals look at a group of people and they see incompetence. They see people that can't overcome the obstacles of life on a government program to help them. Yeah, it's it's somewhat frustrating because conservatism I think we talked about this last time.

Conservatism isn't a process some people say of needing to be redefined or modernized or whatever. Era of Reagan is over. No, no, no, no, no. I mean, freedom will never go out of style, and that's the foundation of conservatism. David Limbaugh here, Christian Limbaugh there.

Across from me, Bloom, I should say, your married name. And now, of course, is Rush Limbaugh, who passed away. It's been over a year now, right? Yes, about a year and a half.

So, what are your thoughts? That's from 2009. What are your thoughts, both of your thoughts, about listening to him as David? You're his brother? I mean it's Devastating to hear his voice because it makes me sad, to be honest.

Such an inspiration to me. And what I've been. Moved by more than anything else is I I knew him since I was born, and we were close, and closer as the years went by. I was always in awe of his talent. And his intellect, my he's like not my dad's brain.

I must have got one like the fifth cousin's brain. Twice removed. That's not true, right? No, he's modest. But what really Brian blows me away more than anything else is the love that his audience has for him.

You ought to if you ever have spare time, go to my Twitter feed. Every day I get tens and twenty. I used to get hundreds of people telling me they miss Rush, they miss Rush. And he was like family to him. He's the best friend they never met.

I mean, it's, I had no idea. Of course, I knew his talent. I didn't know how close they were intimate. He was on the radio. You're a radio guy.

I've listened to your radio. By the way, I love your radio show. Thank you. You're so informative and so down-to-earth. Rush had a way of people.

Thinking he was in their room with them. They were just buddies. He just was so engaging and so natural and so fluent. And he felt the people felt like he was their advocate. He was like Trump, standing in the way of the radical left destroying this country.

How would you think he'd feel about being labeled an ultra-maga? Or how would he have handled that, this new tactic now of saying you're an extremist if you want to make America great again? He would be very proud of the label because he loved Donald Trump. This effort. To demonize all of us is so absurd and so dishonest.

Do you realize I really have been a strong conservative since I was 15 years old? Our dad raised us steeped in this stuff. Trust me. He taught us, he taught the Das Kapital and the Communist Manifesto to us. I remember in seventh grade talking to a teacher about it because the teacher wanted to give everybody C's, and I said, That's communism.

The math teacher in seventh grade said, No matter who, what? And so my Rush would not be bothered at all. He'd take it in stride, except he understands the left and the nature of what they're doing. Notice they lie about everything they do. Biden saying that he did not intend to demonize all.

Trump Republican, that's an outright lie. And then he had to back up later. And that stupid I've heard you talking about that stupid demonic background with the red. Mr. What would you do as a producer if Sean walked out there to make a big speech and that was the background?

That's a failure of staff. It's so bad. It's almost like hard to believe that somebody made that decision. Except you guys, here's what gets me. Everybody on Fox and everywhere else says.

Trump's policy, I mean, Biden's policies are failing. I can't believe the truth is they intended to do this. They intend to do everything they do. The only time they back up is when they get called on it effectively. This is not, Biden's economy isn't failing.

This is what socialism leads to. Prosperity is destroyed. Inflation, they were warned about inflation. They lied and said it was transitory. We knew that was a lie.

Now they have to raise interest rates to the point of killing the economy to get inflation under control. The debts, $31 trillion. There's like. 10 existential threats to the United States right now. I can't believe people aren't horrified.

I think they are. But they're happily, you can get you a good feeling about by reading your book, The Resurrected Jesus: The Church in the New Testament. Thanks so much for coming in, and I'll talk to you on TV. Thanks so much for having me. Kristen, David, thank you.

Thank you so much. Keep it here, Brian Kilmicho. Live from the Fox News Radio Studios in New York City, fresh off the set of Fox and Friends, it's America's receptive voice. Brian Killmead. Thanks so much for being here, everybody.

It's the Brian Kilmeat Show. Martha McCallum's coming in at the bottom of the hour. Until then, it's just us. 1-866-408-7669. Listen, today's big day for Barack Obama.

He gets a portrait of the White House. I do not know why he didn't go when. Donald Trump? Was in the White House. It was probably ready.

But he and the First Lady will be pictured there. It's kind of cool if you ever toured there, you see all the portraits. But we have a lot to discuss anyway that's going through. Hey, kind of cool. They have the.

Uh The mayor of New York City finally sent a delegation down to the border to see for themselves what's going on, how bad it is. And they took some shots there, and they want to make sure the people are going on to the buses on their own volition. I think they're getting a a real Education, if they're open to it, to about how bad this is and what brought Governor Abbott to that point and Governor Ducey to that point, because they can't handle it anymore. And it's time for these blue cities, sanctuary cities, the magnets that's bringing them through the border to understand what it is actually like. I wish for Mayor Adams' political future, he went down there, looked at it, walked it, understood how bad it was, and then told Biden the story.

Because for some reason, I think Biden and he really hit it off. Could make a real difference, but instead, Doesn't. Big three.

Now with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. Everyone has to do their part to help step up for just a few more days. Please turn your thermostat up to 78 degrees or higher and avoid to the extent possible using any really large appliances. Yeah, why not?

Here we are in the 2022. You think we're at war or something? We all of a sudden can't handle a heat wave in California. Energy idiocy is what it is. California in the cutting-edge green energy push has rolling blackouts imminent and a demand for stopping electricity usage, as you just heard.

Is this our electric energy future? I don't think Americans will stand for it or sweat through it. Number two. Every Republican should put the word Biden in front of their opponent.

So it's the Biden-Warnick ticket, it's the Biden-Fetterman ticket, it's the Biden-Kelly ticket. And just make sure everybody understands these people are all part of the same machine. Newt, we get it. 2022 is heating up as Mark Masters tries to get Senator Kelly, Blake Masters, tries to get Senator Kelly on the debate stage in Arizona. And Dr.

Oz, desperate hunt for the hoodie-wearing Bernie Sanders clone, John Fetterman, to get him to square off anytime, anywhere. But his fear, his lead, and his stroke are keeping him from the stage. Number one. You tweeted Trump stole an election. You tweeted Brian Kemp stole an election.

I was waiting, Peter, when you were going to ask me that question.

So let's be clear. This is not a speech of concession. I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. He knows. He knows.

He knows. Election denial, not a Donald Trump-driven threat to democracy. Evidence clear from the Biden press secretary to Stacey Abrams to Hillary Clinton. It's been a practice for decades.

So, why is Trump labeled an ultra-maga Trumpy extremist and a threat to democracy now? I don't know. Quick note, I'll be in Albany tomorrow. That's Thursday. There's a few seats left.

I want you to meet me there, see you in person, VIP opportunities for before the show. We talk about America great from the start, 1776 over 1619. Have a chance to talk about my books, the news, and of course, take questions from you. And specials from Fox Nation if you show all that Fox Nation's co-producing this with me.

So it's going to be great. BrianKillmead.com or just go to Ticketmaster.

Now, A quick thing. When it comes to the ultra-maga agenda and the dangerous threat to democracy, the main threat is January 6th. And January 6th is the president. After he lost, I don't think his denials made him look good. I think it made him look terrible.

I think the fact that his legal team went out there and tried to prove things that were unprovable made it look even worse. Because when every court case fell on its face, when there was no substance there, that was the issue. But here's the issue that is real. That the President could bring up. You know, the pandemic rules allowed a massive amount of write-in votes.

It won't happen again. Number two, there's a lot of states that tightened up the rulings with the drop boxes for the first time ever to certain blocks that can be surveilled. Understood. You could expand, but not 24 hours. Not drive-through voting.

Makes no sense. You know, you could have two 18-year-olds in the back seat with the dad pressuring you to vote somehow. You deserve privacy at the ballot box. If you can't get out, I'm sure there's spells to exemptions depending on your state. Number one, if Pfizer held back the vaccine like look like they did until after the election, that's Election That's affecting the election.

Uh perhaps illegally. Number two. What happened with the Hunter Biden investigation as it relates to Joe Biden? Totally suppressed for finding out the mechanics behind it that actually destroyed the social media presence of the New York Post for doing it. If you retweeted the story about Hunter Biden, his laptop, and how it's linked to the president, the big guy, and Tony Bobolinski, your account was suspended.

All those things that are happening, the FBI agents who are now being named by whistleblowers within the FBI, these are all real. That you don't have to prove some theory about what happened at some ballot box with some ring doorbell video. Don't worry about that. This other stuff is legitimate.

So you want a rematch, Mr. President. I don't think there's any doubt about it. You like to with this current president, I understand it. But this current president wants to vilify you, thinks his best advantage would be to tell everyone you're an extremist because you never acknowledged that you lost the election.

Well, is he the only one? Karine Jean-Pierre, when she was a pundit and a lot smoother on MSNBC, I might add. When she doesn't, I guess, didn't have to speak to anyone, didn't have to worry about any backlash, tweeted this out in 2016. December 17th. Stolen emails, stolen drones, stolen election.

Welcome to the world of hashtag unpresidential Trump. Hmm. Looks like you're denying the election results. But don't stop there. What about 2020?

Jean-Pierre, before she got the job, Brian Kemp stole the gubernatorial election from the Georgians and Stacey Abrams. Hmm. Doesn't seem like you're accepting the election results, are you? Let me see. Did Hillary Clinton accept election results?

Cut three. I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. He knows. He knows that there were a bunch of different reasons why the election turned out the way it did. Uh Did she just have one bad day when she said that in twenty nineteen?

Do we remember any other times when she said that? She claims and denies that she ever said that Trump was illegitimate, that she ever said she didn't lose. Cut four. Was I happy when I beat Donald Trump by nearly 3 million votes but lost the Electoral College? No, I was not happy.

Did I even for a nanosecond think? I'm going to claim victory and try to get the Democrats to refuse to certify the election? No.

Okay. You never acknowledged. You realize now you have to pretend like that was it, but we taped your others. Remember Stacy Abrams? She protests so vociferously, of course, claim race.

We have a whole bunch of Hollywood movies that pulled out of Georgia, even though they love to shoot there. And she didn't mind when she rallied everybody against the new election rules in the state of Georgia that caused the exit of Major League Baseball's All-Star Game to Colorado. She didn't mind that. But in 2018, after she clearly lost the election, she said this: Cut six. I acknowledge that former Secretary of State Brian Kemp will be certified as the victor in the 2018 gubernatorial election.

But to watch an elected official who claims to represent the people in this State baldly pin his hopes for election on the suppression of the people's democratic right to vote has been truly appalling.

So let's be clear. This is not a speech of concession. Because concession means to acknowledge an action is right, true, or proper. As a woman of conscience and faith, I cannot concede that.

Okay. This is all bad. All bad. And if the President was truly a unifier, he would say this is all bad. And he said, in order to get to Trump, you have to go back and see who denied George W.

Bush ever called him legitimate. I have to go back and see how John Lewis and others said President Trump is not legitimate from Jerry Nadler on down, obviously Hillary Clinton on through. Everybody that said he didn't really win. And then you go, well, I'm really upset at President Trump for doing what he did. And then maybe people will listen.

But when you come out and say MAGA, ultra, MAGA, it's a violent it's January 6th, you gotta be kidding me. This was all heading there. He was the last one to go. But believe me. Violence was brewing back in 2000 as well.

But I respect that Al Gore conceded. A lot of people around him didn't. But by coming out and saying semi-fascists, by coming out and saying ultra-maga extremists, you are dividing the country in a way that may be distracting from inflation and crime for a couple of days and a border catastrophe. But you're hurting the country. You're supposed to lead the country.

You're 78 years old. When will you grow up? Senator John Kennedy, cut eight. And these independents And these Democrats and these Republicans are Americans too. And they're going to get pretty tired pretty quickly.

having the President of the United States of America call them racist and misogynistic. and ignorant and un-American and fascist. Because they disagree. With the Bernie Sanders agenda that President Biden has adopted. And I guess that's a long-winded way of saying.

I I think the President's new tactic is star-spangled stupid. Yeah. When we come back, Martha McCallum will join me. She's anything but star-spangled stupid. She's got great insight.

And she also interviewed William Barr yesterday, who was very critical of the President for taking out all this paperwork home, which he did. We'll discuss that and how it changes things and what it means for these sixty plus days left until The midterm elections, and Martha will be part of our elite election coverage. You're listening to the Brian Kilmeat Show.

So glad you're here. Coming to you on a need-to-know basis because Mandy, you need to know. It's Brian Kilmead. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead.

You tweeted Trump stole an election. You tweeted Brian Kemp stole an election. If denying election results. is extreme now. Wow, yeah.

That comparison that you made is just ridiculous. I was talking specifically at that time of what was happening with voting rights and the what was in danger of voting rights. That's what I was speaking to at the time. Okay, that was. Corrine Jean-Pierre.

I got to get Martha McCallum's take on how she did in trying to clarify how denying an election when she was a pundit is different than denying an election when you're a president or a former president or a defeated senator. Corrine Jean-Pierre on December 17, 2016 said stolen email, stolen drone, stolen election. Welcome to the unpresidential Trump, World of Unpresidential Trump. She also said that Brian Kemp stole the election from Stacey Abrams. She treated that.

Now she's press secretary. Martha, you just got a little of her explanation effective. No.

This is dangerous language on both sides, okay? This is very dangerous language. And you wonder why people have lost faith in the system. We could go on for a long time talking about the COVID voting rules, which I think were highly, highly problematic. And may have changed elections forever and need to be retrenched and rethought.

Some states have done that. But the fact of the matter is that to look at the former president and say that he is unique in claiming a stolen election is complete fabrication. It's made up fairy tale land. When you, I just was listening to what you were doing prior to this, playing back all of the times that Hillary Clinton said that Donald Trump was not the president. Jimmy Carter legitimately.

Jimmy Carter said that Russia gave Donald Trump the election. Exactly. And which was. Debunked after, unfortunately, an extraordinarily expensive two-year Russia hoax investigation.

So there's a pox on both their houses in this regard, and it's a big negative for the country across the board. Use a little of the election deniers, and it just blows me away, by the way, on the press secretary. She knew she was out there. She knew she was eventually going to get this question, especially when the president brings it up. You're a crisis manager.

You can call anybody. Call up Barry Fleischer. You can call up anybody. Any crisis manager, listen, I tweeted this out. I look pretty bad.

How do I deal with this? Admit it, number one. Number two, deny it. It's not possible, but you could deny it. You could say someone else broke into your account.

That works well. Or you could say it's totally different, but give an explanation that might be plausible. Or number four, apologize. And I played into it, and I wish I didn't. I wish I never tweeted that out because it really is destructive, and I see that now from where I sit.

But here's some more deniers. You can run the best campaign. You can even become the nominee. And you can have the election stolen from you. How can you win with Russian interference, though?

That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm scared about in 2020. But rightly. Because I think he's an illegitimate president that didn't really win.

So, how do you fight against that in 2020? You are absolutely right. He is an illegitimate president, in my mind. Would you be my vice president on some candidates? Folks, look, I absolutely agree.

Trump didn't actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election, and he was put into office because of the Russians in affairs. Trump knows he's an illegitimate president. The president or elector, although legally elected, is not legitimate. I don't see it.

President-elect. as a legitimate president.

So that's John Lewis, that last soundbite.

So, why are we pretending like this is new? No, we shouldn't be. And honestly, I find all of that heartbreaking. And then you have these same individuals who turn around in the 2020 election and talk about the legitimacy of the outcome, how important it is to respect the outcome, which is what actually President Obama at the time during the 2016 election said, you know, even while all this was going on with the emails that were surfacing, the Democratic National Convention, all of it dropping during that time, he said, make no mistake, we know how to do this in this country. The outcome of this will be a legitimate election.

That's the way it's done in America. I'm paraphrasing him, but that was the message that he sent out there.

So, either we need to wrap our arms around our electoral system, we need to make sure that people. I think most the majority of Americans would like to see voter ID. We need to make sure you have custody of the ballots that is close and accountable. And we need to realize how very deeply dangerous this discussion of stolen elections is on either side.

So when the president came out, I don't want to play it again. It says ultra MAGA, MAGA, Trumpet, Trumpies, or whatever he wants to call it. Is he winning? Because the Republicans are showing their outrage and not talking about inflation, crime and the border. To an extent, yes.

One of the things that I hear more than anything else from voters when I go out and talk to people is they want to know what, when you're talking about the Republican Party, they want to know what they stand for. They want to know what they're running on. They're asking, where is the contract for America that they present in this midterm election? What are they going to do specifically that is different? And you have this discussion about investigations.

Now, I want to know what happened with Hunter Biden as much as anybody. It's a legitimate question. It should be investigated. The fact that they've had that laptop for two years is atrocious. But I don't know that voters want this to be the sole focus.

They don't want to hear elect us because we'll spend all of our time digging into investigations. They want to hear what you're going to do about things like school choice, for example, about getting our kids educated in a way that is effective and meaningful and competitive in the world. They want to hear about inflation. They want to hear about bringing crime down. You've got people all across the country paying for private versions.

Of protecting their buildings here in New York City, pooling their money together just to keep their buildings safe. You have people fighting back on the streets, helping other citizens not to be able to do it. Absolutely. What's going on? I mean, you know, President Biden always says, what's going on?

What is going on? Right. This is not normal. This is normal. If I could take another question, exactly.

So I think you're right. I think in terms of effective politics, Republicans are seeding the message and they're allowing themselves to get sucked into this language of Joe Biden.

So I think he's probably quite effective at the moment. And my point was: yeah, I think he might be effective for the most part, but he's getting blowback from his own people, like Maggie Hassan, Tim Ryan, the ones that are in tough fights, go, oops, this is not helping me. But it's making the conversation about that. And I think that was your point. It's sucking everybody into this vortex where this is the discussion that we're having instead of the things that people really care about in the country.

Right. And I just think crime should be number one. I think somehow this country, if they're alerted about what's happening at the border, that would be another major issue. And my goodness, are we forgetting about the way the president left Afghanistan? And that.

That was his sole decision. We will come back and talk about it because 60 plus days. Will we even remember a couple of days past Labor Day when we're talking about November 8th? Brian, kill me, Chip. What am I doing here?

Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Even if they can technically make the case that there's another step, which is prudentially, do they want to do it, because it's a former president and its impact on the country. I hope they don't do it. But the law here, I think, is pretty clear that the Justice Department should be able to review these documents.

If it got to the point where they wanted to actually put the documents before the grand jury without sanitizing them and protecting the deliberative process, then you would litigate the issue. But for her to come in now and sort of this abstract thing and say, Guy is going to decide what is potentially privileged. Dodges the question, which is: does the president have standing to assert the privilege against the existing administration? That is Bill Barr with one Martha McCallum yesterday, and then the revelation last night. The Washington Post gets another leak.

Highly classified documents held at Mar-a-Lago is the headline. They contain foreign nuclear secrets, according to the leak, that only a cabinet-level official or higher could authorize others to know.

So now, all of a sudden, that's the pushback on the On the special master that the judge said was worthy of this process. It would decide what is classified, what's not, and to give Donald Trump his stuff back and what's pro-Attorney Crown privilege and what's executive privilege. Martha, your reaction to the Bill Barr interview and that excerpt.

So, you know, I think that what's important to remember about Bill Barr is that he's looking at it from what the law says.

So, and I think it was good the way that it's encapsulated there. He's saying he doesn't think that the special master decision was correct because you're all in the executive branch. You've got the president, you've got the Department of Justice, you've got the FBI. They can share these documents within their own confines and then come to some sort of conclusion on them.

However, he said, I mean, he obviously believes, he said the other day on America's newsroom, you know, you can't take these documents to a country club. After your president, that it doesn't work. He also believed that the Trump folks were, quote, jerking around the Department of Justice. He doesn't think that any of that was appropriate.

However, his coda is, but I hope they don't think they're going to indict him and I hope they don't because it would be so destructive and so bad for the country.

So I think you have to always listen to everything that he says. And the end of the sentence is often different in some ways. You know, people want him to be a supporter or not a supporter. He's been both in the course of his relationship with Donald Trump, but always based, I think, on what the law is. In reading his book and how much he accomplished, he didn't enjoy being fired the way Donald Trump fired and exploded on him at the end and tried to besmirch his reputation when he did.

And then when he comes out and has a chance to write a book, he lets people know that. But he also points out a lot of good things about the president, thought he was doing some really good things. He was very proud of what they accomplished together. That's why I thought President Trump should have been saying, hey, listen, this guy's going to get a microphone. He's going to get a pen.

He's going to write a book. Why does it have to be negative? Look at how much they actually did together, how much better he was than Jeff Sessions. But I want you to do what Marco Rubio told us. And I'm not trying to one-up you.

I just happen to be on Fox and Friends after you, 12 hours after. Marco Rubio was asked the same question. And here's his answer to these top-secret documents that evidently were at Mar-a-Lago, including the nuclear weapons of one country. Again, we go back to people talking about the state of mind of the agents when they. Got in there, if that's even true.

What's the only reason to do that? If you're conducting a serious investigation, you don't hear anything about these investigations. The Justice Department won't even acknowledge that someone is under investigation or not under investigation. If someone's being investigated, you ask the Justice Department to say it's not true, they won't do it. They won't do it either way, they won't comment, especially something when it involves a former president.

And yet, in this particular case, every single day someone in the Justice Department is leaking. Why would you leak? There's only one reason to leak this stuff, and that is to create a narrative. And why do you create a narrative? For political purpose.

So, every single day, they are proving that they are politicizing this by what they are doing, as opposed to allowing the pleadings and the case to work its way through and speak for itself. And he's in the gang of eight, and he's supposed to be briefed on high-level things, and he's never briefed. It was so serious. Why wouldn't you tell us? No, I think that's the only thing that is 100% right.

And if the Justice Department doesn't like the fact that they are ill-perceived by the public, they should take this to heart. And they should, where is Merrick Garland with these people? Why is he letting all of this information come out? If he is so, you know, if he, all we heard about Merrick Garland when he was being nominated as a Supreme Court justice was how even-handed he was. This does not reflect that.

The going after parents at school board meetings does not reflect that. He's revealed himself in a way that is unfortunate for someone who's supposed to have. The blindfolds of justice on, and this should be completely airtight. It is unfair in the it. It it is so unfair what's happening with these leaks.

To build this narrative, as Senator Rubio says, that it Makes everybody skeptical about these agencies. It's a sad state of affairs. It really, really is.

So right now, the special master is going to be in place. They want names by Friday. When are we going to find out if the Department of Justice will challenge this decision?

Well, Barr said he thinks they should appeal just based on the law and his reading of the law. I think that Upshot of it is it's going to take a really long time. This is going to drag out. It's going to not happen till after the midterms for sure. And then it becomes a 2024 issue.

It's unfortunate that We're here, right? That this it didn't really need to happen. That's the whole, this is, there's certain things that happen, you're president. And you can't, you can't avoid it. You have to deal with stuff.

Controversy comes your way, but this one was, this was avoidable. Right. And I will say this. There's protocols. There should be archives executives down there dealing with the chief of staff and just saying, the president wants to take this.

My problem with that box is X, Y, and Z. Right, have this process then. And then I want an arbitrator.

Well, when the President really wants that box, get an arbitrator. I'll tell you. Tell you what the problem was. You know, it was in the middle of COVID, right? The National Archives was shut down.

You couldn't get anyone on the phone at the National Archives for two years. If you were a veteran who wanted to get your hands on your own records, people died waiting for the documentation of their service because they couldn't get anyone to answer the phone. Nobody worked for over two years, but apparently they were very focused on this issue. Right. So here's uh the President's one of the President's attorneys, Alina Haba.

Cut twenty three. The injunction, which means that they've stopped all criminal investigations, was granted, which is a great win for the Trump team that is handling this matter. Additionally, we received an approval to get a special master, which was exactly what I had hoped would happen. The DOJ, as you may recall, was opposing this. They didn't want it.

And what the public had assumed was a delay was in fact the fact that, and the judge mentioned this, the fact that the DOJ wasn't willing to grant a special master when we requested it prior.

So then we had to file a motion. The judge made the right decision, in my opinion.

So, I don't understand why they were so worried about Special Master except for losing control. Number one, the tank team that's supposed to come in and screen at. I have that right there. Good job. Supposed to screen at you.

Okay, I missed the passport. I missed his medical records, missed his tax records. And what are they doing in Baron's room? I guess if he's really diabolical, he'll go, where won't they look? Under Baron's mattress or Melania's underwear draw.

That's where I'll put it. You could say that. But if they were so. Red in with these whistleblowers who knew where all this stuff was. Why'd you need nine hours to grab all this stuff and, in the end, keep lawyers pinned against the ground when you could have said, Why don't you walk through?

I'm tired of waiting. I just briefed the gang of eight. I'm tired of waiting. I'm going in. Yeah.

I understand where you're coming from. I think part of the reason that a lot of that stuff was included, some of the personal items were included, is that it's to show context of where the document was and what was with the document, what else was in the box. That's. What Bill Barr says is the reason for presenting confidence. This is the box that we found.

In it was, you know, frame pictures, classified documents, and barren socks. I don't know. But that's the reason for taking other items to show how these things were being stored and where they were kept. Right. When we come back, we're going to find out because Martha knows a lot if she needs to know more.

We got enough of the raid. Also, Martha, you have an electric car yet and solar panels on your house. Do you still use it? Are you kidding? I'm so embarrassed for you.

It's so terrible. Because the green era has arrived. I go for long drives.

Sorry. Not anymore. Back in a moment. Learning something new every day on the Brian Killmead Show. Breaking news, unique opinions.

Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show. We recognize that we need to do more in terms of de-risking our transition to green energy. And don't think for a second, I'll talk more about that in a moment, that we are not doing anything except accelerating. I mentioned what we're doing on permitting and procurement, accelerating that transition to low carbon, renewable sources of energy. And that's why they have none.

This is their terrible governor, who is a horrible mayor, Gavin Newsom, who's talking with a bear in his shirt and a bear in his hat about California. Hey, guys, I know it's hotter than hell, but would you mind keeping everything at 78 degrees and don't use your dryer, not to put your head in it, but even to dry your clothes. Because I have an idea. I'm getting rid of nuclear. I'm getting rid of oil, getting rid of gas.

I'm going to make you get rid of your cars too. Two days later, he's saying, Don't plug in your car if you want the 1% in California with a car. Martha McCallum, you're here. Is this our future? Because 17 states want to do what Gavin Newsom is doing.

2035, done with cars. I mean, you have such a deep red divide between the states, a red-blue divide between the states.

So you've got, you know, as you say, 17 states that want to do the same thing. I'm thinking about the piece that you guys did this morning with the folks from West Virginia who had to help a guy whose electric car ran out of coal. Ran out of coal workers. Yeah, coal workers. And this guy's electric car ran out of juice and they had to help him.

Like, what? I mean, what an amazing. Image that whole scene is, right? Had to push him to a coal. Coal workers pushing an electric car that ran out of juice off of the road for safety.

The problem is, and I've always said this that you don't we don't have the replacement ready for Coal. We don't have energy replacements that are ready to go. When we do, when they're so overwhelmingly effective, when you can drive from New York to Cape Cod with your car without stopping for a half an hour to rejuice it, then you've got the ability to start making changes if you want to. But what about the question of what goes into these batteries? And what do you do with the batteries when they're gone?

I've done a lot of work in this renewable windmill, wind farm in the ocean issue. You know, you take one of those blades off, there's no way to get rid of it. It's the size of two football fields. They break all the time. They're not recyclable.

You have to get like three trucks and break it into pieces in order to remove one of them. These issues are not well thought through. And you're seeing it play out in California. Right. I mean, look, the way it breaks down in California, the power grid consists of this: natural gas, 37%.

By the way, burns clean. If you were serious about this, you'd be fracking.

Solar, 14%, wind, 11%, nuclear, 9%, coal, 3%, and oil, zero. And what they do is they import a lot of their oil in order to keep these things running.

So it's a total joke and a travesty and a facade. This way, people are moving out.

So it costs a lot. We have rolling blackouts. And now you're told we're going to get rid of combustion engines.

So good luck with that. Please tell me where this works. Also, I don't know if you noticed, but my iPad. I have to plug it in by the time I get here at 9 o'clock.

So I've been using it since 3 in the morning. It doesn't hold.

Now, it used to hold. But what about the battery in your car after six months? That's a great question. It used to go $350.

Now they run down.

Now it's $290. Very quickly they run down. And you know what?

Now I can get to the cornerstone. And like all of a sudden it's out of juice. And you know what?

I don't know who has it.

Well, now if I have a Tesla, I gotta go to a Tesla place.

So so this is nothing to do with right, but they but they asked for all this money that we don't have to print to to go to use.

So I'm just wondering if you need to know more. Oh, I found it to know. Martha, this is the time where we duel it out.

So, you want to use Star?

Okay, Justin Bieber canceled his Justice World Tour due to physical and mental health issues after a facial paralysis battle, saying, I need some time to rest and to get better. A tough announcement, obviously. And he's thanked his fans for their support. He performed in Brazil on Sunday after resuming his world tour. He said exhaustion just overtook him.

So, what's going on with this, bro? Listen, so wait, so his face moves. They said it was temporary. He can perform, but mentally he doesn't want to perform, it looks like. Yeah, I guess he's having, you know, I mean, he's had a lot of issues over time.

He's a child star who, you know, soared to world fame, and there's a lot of struggles involved in that. Perhaps there's, you know, an emotional side to this story, and we hope he gets better.

Well, a lot of times it's to do, I'm not accusing him, but a lot of times it's to substance abuse. I mean, that usually is when people are exhausted. I hope that's not the case.

Next, congratulations to everyone at ESP on the ESPs Week initiative. It raised $2.87 million in support of the Bee Foundation. He was one of the things that he pointed out before he passed away, Valvano, is how much money is going to AIDS and other diseases. He gets it. But most people, sadly, in this country, die from cancer.

Can we get some cancer money there? Let's hope we see some progress. Because a few years ago, I heard we're getting close to somewhat of a vaccine. Have you heard anything like this? I know that with breast cancer, they feel that they're getting closer to a vaccine.

Jen Griffin did a great report on it for us, talking about the form of breast cancer that she had, and that they are very hopeful. One of the things is that for doctors to get funding in these areas, you have to have some success in order to get funding through your hospitals.

So, so much of this research is privately funded through fundraising. You know, I have a great group of friends who do the Crush 11 tour every year, the Pan Mask Challenge, just to raise money for one brain cancer doctor in Boston who's doing this kind of research.

So, we have to keep going. I do believe we're getting close on these. I really do. Free enterprise at biotech is one of the keys to our success.

Next. Michael Jordan jersey expected to fetch as much as $5 million at the Sotheby's Invictus sports auction. Is it worth $5 million, Brian? Evidently, was it his last game that he wore in the last series? The Last Dance Jersey from Game One, which is hugely popular.

It's a great series if you haven't seen it.

So, yeah, I guess maybe it will get that much. My son has an autographed Jordan jersey, but I'm not sure he sweated it in it. How do I find out? Do I take it out of the frame and smell it? Yeah, you do it.

It smells like Jordan. And he stains on it. Right. Do you take Jordan has his own cologne, right? Does he smell, does it smell like Michael Jordan or does it smell like what Michael Jordan wants to smell like?

I don't know. You have to break the glass and find out.

Next, Kathy Griffin blasted by warning those who don't vote. Democrat, vote for Civil War. She tweeted out: if you don't want a civil war, vote for Democrats in November. If you do not want a Civil War, vote. If you do want a Civil War, vote Republican.

Ted Cruz, upset about this, says this is wrong. Crazy Hollywood lefty, threatening civil war if Dems don't win. Sadly, this is totally left, angry, hateful, and violent. Where do you stand? The first image that comes to my mind is her holding a severed head, a fake head, of the former president of the United States.

So, as far as inciting civil war, I think she should start by maybe looking in the mirror. All right, this is how different Kathy Griffin used to be. I know. For a 10-year anniversary for Fox and Friends, she basically hosted a best of for us for the final hour, tossing the different sound bites.

So I don't know if I still next. Top Gun Maverick becomes the fifth highest grossing movie of all time at the domestic box office, $701 plus million dollars, passing Black Panther, which was at $700 million.

So good for Tom Cruise, right? I mean, this was clearly the feel-good movie of the summer. I feel like it was the movie that got the masses back into the movie theater post-COVID. And I thought it was, you know, I thought it was awesome. My kids all saw it.

I think it just brought a whole new generation to the Top Gun franchise. I do, but do you realize how little dialogue there was in this movie, right? It's Tom Guns. That circus flyby, Maverick. There's not a lot of dialogue required.

Next, too fat to fight. Four-star generals say Americans are too obese or criminal to join the armed forces and defend the country. Enlistment is at its lowest point since the Vietnam War. This is according to Lieutenant General Brunson, the commander of the Joint Base Lewis-McCord in Washington State. Theorized that why recruitment is so low is for those reasons.

The Army announced that it meant it wouldn't meet its 485,000 recruitment goal for 2022. They found 20,000 short. Should we be letting heavy guys in and women in and we should be reinforcing a message of health? I read this morning that they're saying that plus-size clothing is discriminatory. They don't want to call it that anymore.
