Administration has been exposed. Normally the fell as that become president understand the silent rules of who really governs and its usually shadowing figures at alphabet intelligence agencies that are unelected, unactable, and out of sight. He want the real power and hes going to find the and hold on to it even if he has to crack a few eggs making the authority omelette. General flynn was flapping his trap to his counterpart about sanctions, but little did he know, he was being spied on by the f. B. I. I wonder if they had a warrant for all the intercepts between trump operatives and lord knows who else. All the deep state got were texts about sanctions. So three political hacks with dubious track record. Sally yates, James Clapper and john brennan decided to make political hay out of flinls perceived ineptitude. Even for people who hate President Trump and i know they are loud and angry. Spying on american citizens and selectively leaking droplets to the Washington Post is wrong and bad on every level. Its the most powerful tool the American Intelligence Agency has, and to its for a club is so wrong, even if the bruised bastard is the political devil. Edward snowden exposed what eli lake calls. If there has been a deep state war ignited by flynns resignation and the president want to get back at the Intelligence Community. He should pardon edward snowden. I heart you and im kennedy. Is President Trump and the Intelligence Community at war . Lets ask jonah goldberg. What is your take on the deep state versus the administration . For me its like the iraniraq war. I am just sorry on one side can lose. I agree with you that what they did needs a thorough accounting. One way we can figure out whats going on, they should release the tapes that they have of the conversation. Kennedy or a transcript so week all see it and judge for ourselves. For the most part they should release the whole thing, especially the parts alluded to in the press. Im pretty sure they did have a warrant. If they didnt have a warrant someone needs to go to jail really soon. But the warrant if they dont have a fisa warrant to do this, thats nuts. Im not sure i agree with you that flynn didnt know he was being record. If he didnt know he was being record, thats really grotesque incompetence. The guy he was talking to is precisely the kind of got it nsa is supposed to be monitoring. Its a hot mess all the way around. If it is true that this is done unfairly and flynns account of this is basically correct, then why the heck did the Trump Administration throw him under the bus. He shouldnt have been let go if its as innocuous as everyone is saying. Kennedy i think our government and our country and our press are all Strong Enough to handle that sort of inquisition. What do you think if there were stuff on flynn . If there was stuff on flynn . Kennedy is there worst stuff on flynn . I dont know. I always thought this relationship and track record with russia was nervous making. I know he says a lot of hawkish things about russia in his book. The whole administration is extremely weird. Kennedy if you have people inside the administration who have curiously Close Relationships with moscow or if there is a deep state war and they are using this sort of soft coup. As far as independent investigations democrats want an investigation of any russian connection between President Trump and people within the administration and republicans want an investigation on how this stuff happened and how it got leaked. Where do you start . I want it all . I want both things investigated. When prosecutors abuse their authority to convict guilty people. I still want the guilty people to go to jail and i want the prosecutor to go to jail. I understand the politics. People want to be forced into one lane or another. I want to know about both. And i think that it is entirely likely a bunch of holdover obama hacks are playing bad games here and doing stuff that is against the interests of their own institutions in the longrun because it devalues and delegitimizes the work that they do. There is a weird situation where you have President Trump who used to spout, i love wikileaks talking about how great wikileaks was. Wikileaks is together same stuff these guys did to flynn. As far as we know, everything in wikileaks was true about podestas emails. As far as we know now everything and he to be in this transcripts is true about flynn. We should confirm that. So when donald trump says its outrageous about the illegal leaks. Wicky leak was full of illegal stuff, too. Im sort of i believe in consistencies of my position on all of these things. Kennedy you are going to come around and snowden, too, i can feel it. It may take a while. Kennedy lets go to the party panel. Kat timpf, joe devito and pete hegseth. Welcome, you guys. So much stuff to talk about. General flynn is no longer in legal jeopardy. Hes out of the white house for lying and not for breaking the law. But according to the New York Times the feds are investigating a number of other trump aides for repeat contacts with russian intelligence officials. President trump and the russians dismissed the idea that any such phone calls took place. But is this a fullflown crisis . The media will want to tell us its a scandal. If you read the New York Times piece, there is no evidence. No one was talking about been figure it the other in these conversations. A future noo National Security advisor can have conversations with their few tour counterparts future counterparts. Kennedy some of the stuff that was leaked from John Podestas emails, they are trying to create the perception there is a headline. Unnamed sources wont say how many calls, how many officials. How many of them are obama holdovers trying to get at this administration. Until we get the transscripts or evidence, this is building a up of a case against trump. You can only imagine the ax brennan had to grind with flynn. Its very convenient that a lot of people who called for Edward Snowdens head are loosely praising the work that he did showing that the government not only spying on private citizens, its spying on public u. S. Citizens and the government is spying on the government. Congressman nunes who is huge into spying on private citizens for safety. Thats important. But way out of line if its an intelligence official and ambassador talking. You have got to be consistent. Trump is complaining about leaks. Come on. When it benefits you. I love seeing transparency happen even if it ends up being a little bit after mess or a lot of a mess. Its not transparency when you arent naming sources. Hes out of there. The New York Times piece says russian officials were talking to Trump Campaign advisors. They are trying to drive that narrative. Kennedy thats the narrative democrats want to drive. If there is something happening with russia, we deserve to find that out. But if its the deep state punishing this administration, thats not acceptable. Pence is incredibly powerful because he was lied to by general flynn and flynn was essentially forced to resign. But people say pence is not in the inner circle base wasnt privy to this information that the president had two weeks ago. I think he got fired because he made pence look bad. The mainstream news is giving us fake news and leaks are giving us the truth. I think the idea he could have been in a meeting and it didnt occur to him he was being record or spied on. They should use the mafia format where you dont euls any personal nouns. Kennedy in the meantime, it appears the russians are doing a little poking back, perhaps to see how far they can push or possibly to test the Trump Administration. The pentagon is telling us a russian surveillance boat has been chugd up the east coast 70 miles offshore. And four russian jets flu fast and low over u. S. Navy ships. U. S. Officials their new missile violates a 30yearold treaty between the russians and us. Are we on a collision course or is this a careful live crafted scheme where President Trump and Vladimir Putin pretend they are meddling. Vladimir putin is lapping this up. Everyone is claiming the russians around every single corner. So they are going to take this moment this pause, this place, where no one know iowa to do with russia. And he pushed the boundaries up our coast. They will take the confusion of the moment and maximize it as much as possible. Kennedy are the russians being sneaky . Trump is a very America First guy. Neither of them are the leaders or people who care what they have should be doing or shouldnt be doing. They are both also unpredictable. So this sounds like, oh, trump says nice things about putin. When people saw that and anybody who understands way its like to be an unpredictable leader dealing with another unpredictable leader. You have no idea what they are going to do when they are thinking only about themselves. Kennedy on one level its okay to deal with iran which is clearly funding terrorism. And that was fine for the obama administration. To have this toes irwript saudis who sent people over here to kill us. But if the United States and im not a puff continuist. I think hes a bad im not a putinist. I think hes a bad person who has done bad things. If you look back to when obama had the meeting and said to medvedev into the hot mike, this will be easier after the election. And Hillary Clinton gave them the reset but on with the typo on it. But my question is, is trump at warp with the russians or in cahoots with the russians . The fact that they are off of the coast of delaware, what are they going to do . Steal our credit card information . Kennedy the party panel is coming back in just a little bit. Repealing and replacing obamacare is an increasingly difficult puzzle for the gop. Later, one of the states that helped donald trump shock the political world in november. Now republicans pushing for an unlikely contender to run for congress. Kid rock.

The plan would cut the open enrollment window in half and lower the minimum standards for healthcare than it surers would need to qualify for the exchanges. Republican lawmakers who are struggling to replace obamacare now have yet another lands mine to dodge. Humana annnced they will stop selling on obama exchanged next year citing uncertainty about a replacement. That puts the gop in a bind because it makes replace. More difficult. Welcome back, congressman. Before we diefn to some of the nuts and bolts of obamacare. I want to talk about your performance at your town hall. A lot of your fellow Republican Congress people have been told not to engage with protesters, and top limit the size of your town hall, and you said no way. What advice would you give to other people who do your job in your party when dealing with loud protesters . I tell them to be open to go back to their districts, to talk to constituents, to hear their concerns. There are a lot of people with reasonable concerns. We may not agreen all the solutions. But its important to have those conversations and take the criticism where someone wants to criticize you. And there will be people there who want to thank you for what you are doing. Its important to be there and hear the different perspectives and try to represent your entire district. Kennedy you were praised by the way you handled some of those issues. You talk about citizens united. You dont accept the kind of corporate money people often take issue with in their campaigns. Your Speaker Paul Ryan went over to the senate and talked to Senate Republicans about pane obamacare plan, and about and one of your republicans senator rand paul of kentucky walked out. Are you standing with rand or dying with ryan. I like rand palms plan better. I think we should return this Healthcare System to the states. Allow the states to decide what they are going to do, and create some sort of phasein period to give the states time top get up on their feet with a Healthcare System. But between the two plans, rand pauls and paul ryans, i prefer rand palms plan because it puts people back in charge. It gives people more options, and it tries to get the government out of the system and the way its been. A lot of what we are seeing from Republican Leadership and some of the republicans plans out there would be characterized by me as obamacare light or obamacare version two. I think thats not way to go. If we dont like the way the Healthcare System is working we should offer a real alternative. Not just finger and change a few things. Kennedy i think it is protecting the status quo, and thats how we got to this hyper partisan pickle we are in to begin with. You have been a member of the Freedom Caucus are you still a member of that caucus . Yes. Kennedy what are some of the members saying about their plan for repeal and replace of obamacare . People are supportive of rand palms plan. Governor Mark Stanford has the companion bill, its a little bit different from rands, and the house Freedom Caucus has been supportive of that proposal. We think repeal and replace should happen at roughly the same time. We would have a repeal bill and a replace bill. And of the plans that are out there right now, we think that Mark Sanfords plan which is essentially rand palms plan is the best one out there that we can get behind. Kennedy the president says it could take over a year to repeal and replace. Will that send the Healthcare Industry into a death spiral. We want to make sure we give Health Insurance companies the time they need to adjust. But we should take action immediately. We should put our plan out there and pass the repeal bill. We should take action and show we are serious. When we were against obamacare out there on the campaign trail, we meant it. We werent just about tinkering and reconfiguring way or finding new ways to finance it. Kennedy thank you so much for your time.

Let us help ow your companys tomorrow today at esd. Ny. Gov kennedy donald trump and republicans are pushing for a tax on stuff we bring in from our border. The Retail Industry will jack up prices. Watch this. This bored adjustment tax would actually pick winners and losers in our manufacturing base. At exactly the time we dont need to be doing this. Kennedy would a border tax help our economy or kill free trade . The editorinchief of reason. What are these massive ceos, these corporatists, what are they saying about it . I think they have a strong point. Any tax ultimately, you can call it a corporate tax, but its ultimately paid for by customers. If you slap a 0 tax on import, they increase their prices and people buy less stuff. It wont help the economy the way House Republicans think it is. On top of that, its an incredibly complicated scheme where import are taxes, but export arent. What we really need in the economy is Less Government spending because Government Spending take over from where private sector people are going to be making better choices. We need clean and simple taxes. Its a good idea to reduces corporate thanks rate to 20 or lower. In the end its customers who pay that kind of stuff. If you take less tax out of the economy you leave people with more money. But instead of paying it by taxing import we should do it by cutting spending. Thats the easiest fix. You havent heard the Congressional Republicans address the idea of reciprocity and a trade war. If you are putting a bored tax on, why wouldnt china and mexico and canada do the exact same thing our exports . Of course there is he likelihood they would and it raises questions about nafta and a couple world trade organizations agreements about putting taxes on that. The great benefit of nafta which President Trump ran against, Hillary Clinton ran against, even though her husband bill clinton helped seal the deal on that. It reduced all crossborder goods and Services Going in and out of mexico and canada to zero. Thats a level playing field. Thats what donald trump says he wants. Thats a better economy when the government isnt saying import is bad, exports are good. When you go to best buy or target. You are not going there to pay extra money. You are going there to get the best deal you can. Kennedy the price of goods will certainly increase. Now, we only have about 30 section left. You have said when the economy sucks we dont have as much illegal immigration. But when its doing well, thats when more people come over the border its a sign the economy is booming. Immigration is a lagging indicator of the economy. When the economy heats up immigrant legal and illegal come here. Republicans are the party of no immigration. If the economy grows well see more demand for immigrants. America biggest problems are when we have the least amount of immigrants, not when we have the most. Kennedy irish and italian, correct . Absolutely. Kennedy thank you so much. Have a great night. The party panel returns. I just want to find a used car without getting ripped off. Start at the new carfax. Com show me used trucks with one owner. Pretty cool. [laughs] ah. Ahem. Start your used car search at the allnew carfax. Com. With the deduction findingombine superpower of ibm watson . Ah you get more money. Thats what you could get. H r block with watson. Get your taxes won. Kennedy thats kid rock singing about detroit, michigan. Michigan a state where they recently held their Republican Party convention, and a Committee Member mentioned kid rocks name as a possible senate candidate. The kid, a vocal strum supporter. But should each meeting begin with a rendition of his song. We are hearing mark cuban being floated for a president ial run. Along with al franken. I dont think its crazy. I dont agree with him on everything. But if he wore his wife beat tore all the events and giving the speeches i would not only vote for him and campaign for him. Kennedy you are a proud american and even prouder michigander. Kennedy kanye west is also thought to be a contender. When trump is president and kid rock in the gop, we can finally drop the idea that republicans are a bunch of squares. Im in favor of the weed he likes to smoke. People from michigan like to hold the map in their hand. Now put a joint in your hand. He would get the uber vote. Kennedy i think the only thing left to do is reanimate ronald reagan. I dont know if we take his thoughts and speeches. You start with kid rock. An authentic american who make music we all love. Is he the 1st century embodiment of reagan. His song gin and cocaine. More of what the senate needs clearly. I remember president reagan ran on happy days are here again. Well, you know that feeling when you get to go to a drivethru, order a bigger and you think why cant funerals be like this . There is a funeral home in memphis with drivethru visitation its a window for mourners who wish to pay their respects and be on their way. Do you think this is a great idea . Is that how you want to be remembered . This makes we sick. You dont want to go out in the rain. You dont want to look for parking. If im dead thats significantly worse than getting rained on. If anybody dared to do this to me, i would haunted them for the rest of their days. Kennedy the planner of your memorial would never sleep again. No, nor would their children. Kennedy maybe we need to rethink how we celebrate death. I have no idea with the drivethru. Its the overnight drop box. If you go to the second drivethru window. Three extra packets of hot sauce. Kennedy pete were you are a traditionalist. This is a good repurposing of a bank. If i were the director owner i would look for a bank. Kennedy banks are going the way of malls. And people are still dying, and they are dying at higher rates. Kennedy you are absolutely right. They did mention live streaming. I want my funeral on facebook live. Kennedy kat, i miss you already. Well, you know. Thats good to hear. Thank you, guys. You made my hump day. Coming up a college wants white udents to wear buttons on campus so everyone can couple to them and discuss white privilege. Kennedy those wacky College Democrats at elizabethtown are asking white students to wear white puzzle pieces on campus. The college stressed that pins are not mandatory. But is this the waste bay to get the conversation going . Greg gutfeld is here. He has ph. D on ripping into liberal nonsense. I feel like we were raids to see past color. Do you remember the after School Special world was my black friend said. Greg i find the whole thing puzzling. Well be right back. I love the idea of wearing a pin to self identify as a nonthinking chicago shea is academic sheep. Because instead of having you and me try to find out if this person is a loser, they are actually telling you ahead of time. Its like going to a dating website and the person says i have bad breath, i like to eat my own hair. It saves you have the time of weeks or months finds out your zieght one who eats their hair and has bad tbreat because of the hair. Also living in your mothers closet. Thats why i took those off my proaf file. Now my life is turned around. Kennedy and your wife is so impressed. Greg what tough use it to trap the gullible. What if you or me wore them get socalled dialogue going. Bit of turns out its not the dialogue they want. The dialogue of what you just said, where weve need to get past identity. We. Kennedy they say racial identity is very important. But it doesnt make sense to me to be a selfloather. If you are selfidentifying as someone who shades short people, what does that say about you . It says you are an awful, evil, disgusting person. I dont know what that means. Kennedy if you are installation something about you that you cannot change, that you have hate. Its a silly thing. Its a whole Movement Based on guilt. Companies are getting smarter on Energy Savings by using sensors in desks and name tags and lights to monitor employees and determine whether they have need lieght or heath. This could also theoretically track every move every employee and punish them accordingly when they take too many bathroom breaks. I think weave have been so worn down by the nsa, millennials are especially careful about imairg their privacy. Greg i have to say, i love this idea. I love the idea offal buys. When i have a hangover i spends the weekend watching forensic files. Bust sense source are like your alibi. My sensor says im at work. It might be a box of bricks on my feet. But other people are giving me an alibi. Sow i dont ha to worry about being falsely akeulsd of a crime. Kennedy what if you are committing a crime with the sensor on . Greg people will know where you are. Im trying get past it. You know who this discriminates against . Smokers. The office drier. Do you have an office crier. The person who goes to the bathroom a lot. Then you have people like me who have tiny bladders. I drink a cup of water. The bathroom is literally across the building so im constantly its the office in being john malkovitch. Kennedy sometimes when im bored at midnight i run laps around the 18th floor.
