this would have acquired a weapon. if he wasn t on the british radar, so they couldn t have told us, he s only here for a few weeks. a couple people in northern uk having arrested. the question there would be what they knew in advance. did they know he was coming over here with martyrdom intentions. but if they hadn t talked, how would you know? the idea this ended with the hostages alive and the attacker dead, those are difficult odds when you have situations like this. how much of an achievement? how much of a remarkable achievement was this to end the way it did? h rhrt, the hostage rescue t, they are really good. i was talking to an officer down there who is himself after years in uniform incredibly impressed by them. i would say factually most incidents end up with the hostage being released alive, so it s not unusual but it s a great day. it is indeed. and for their families as well.
keepers, has put out into public the notion that he didn t enter the capitol. so he can t be guilty. that s a little bit of an echo of roger stone who was present in d.c., who was in fact surrounded by oath keepers for security, but who has also said that he didn t participate in the rallies. he didn t go to the capitol that day. and there s a saying in law enforcement that there s no such thing as a coincidence when it comes to law enforcement. these are the kind of issues that you would want to push on. why did they stay away? rhodes is a yale educated lawyer. he s trying to use that to say he couldn t have committed a crime. putting this in that context makes it look a little bit sketchy. yeah, and that goes, bill, to something that you don t need a law degree to know, which is steve jobs did not go into the iphone factories to produce them himself and john gotti didn t go do the hits himself. and i think everyone has seen the movies to understand that. as a final thought in this

schools are mandating masks not based on facts but on fear, and it is not about the science, it is about the political science. jesse: couldn t have said it better myself. when you are now getting fined on the regular by nancy for not wearing a mask, how much are the spines costing you? well, jesse, the first fine is $500, and then every find thereafter is $2500. i told nancy pelosi to kiss my mask a long time ago. i m not putting up with this. congresswoman thomas massie has a lawsuit that other members have signed on to. i was not fined before that lawsuit started so i did not have standing to join them, but i am really hoping they are going to be successful in this because it is completely unconstitutional what is taking place in the house of representatives, and jesse, it s absolutely political theater. it is only where the c-span cameras are rolling that members are fine, and if you go to the senate chambers, well, the air must be extra purified there.
