The speaker points out that the prosecutor in the case has intertwined her political interests with the case, which could backfire. The prosecutor has been removed from part of the case due to a conflict of interest and has made inappropriate public statements. The speaker believes this is bad form for a prosecutor and could be a problem when the case goes to court. They predict that Donald Trump will argue that the prosecutor has improperly mixed politics with the case and should be removed. The speaker acknowledges that these arguments may not succeed, but the prosecutor has created problems for herself.

The speakers discuss the issue of communication with witnesses and whether there should be any restrictions on it. Speaker 0 argues that there should be no prohibition on such communication, as it falls under the First Amendment. Speaker 1 disagrees and suggests that restrictions should be based on evidence showing a likelihood of influence. Speaker 0 points out that the district court concluded that the communication in question was an attempt to influence a witness and could affect their testimony. Speaker 1 argues that such restrictions should only apply if there is evidence of actual influence. The conversation ends with Speaker 1 standing by their previous responses.

The federal criminal trial of Douglas Mackie began in Brooklyn, with charges stemming from memes he posted during the 2016 election. One meme encouraged Hillary Clinton supporters to "text Hillary" to a number. The FBI tracked down people who texted the number, but none remembered doing so. Mackie was arrested years later and charged with conspiring to interfere with citizens' rights, potentially facing a ten-year prison sentence. The DOJ's key witness is a member of Mackie's group chat who now works for the FBI, but Mackie's lawyers cannot fully cross-examine him or say his name in court. The DOJ claims disclosing the witness's identity would lead to online harassment. A Southern Poverty Law Center representative contacted a defense expert witness, George Hawley, questioned him about private emails, and threatened to write an article about him, leading Hawley to withdraw as a witness. The trial has been postponed.

Points of order attacking the president are not allowed during today's impeachment inquiry hearing. Members are encouraged to speak openly.

Speaker 0 believes President Trump's Twitter account should be suspended because his words are irresponsible and could result in harm to others. The speaker argues Trump has attacked members of Congress and directed tweets at the whistleblower. Speaker 0 asserts social media sites must understand their power and be held responsible, as they speak directly to millions without oversight. Speaker 0 states Twitter has terms of use policies and Trump has violated them. The speaker claims Trump has used his platform to incite fear and potentially incite harm against a witness, and is asking Twitter to revoke his privilege, as they have done in the past. Speaker 1 questions if removing the president's account is a violation of free speech, as the president has the same rights as everyone else. Speaker 1 asks if this action would create a slippery slope.

Speaker 1 is asked about their previous tweets regarding Trump and Brian Kemp stealing elections. Speaker 1 dismisses the comparison as ridiculous and clarifies that they were referring to the threat to voting rights at that time.

Whatever James Comey's intent, people like him need to be held accountable under the law. A person in Georgia who issued threats on the speaker's life a month ago has been indicted and is in jail. Comey claims to have given his life for and stands by the rule of law. The rule of law says people who issue direct threats against the president of The United States, essentially issuing a call to assassinate him, must be held accountable under the law.

A New York judge issued a limited gag order against Donald Trump, preventing him from speaking or writing about court staff in his civil case. This isn't a First Amendment issue, but a restriction on a defendant's speech during court proceedings. Trump's recent posts appear to skirt the order's limitations by attacking the civil case, Attorney General Letitia James, and the court proceedings as political persecution. A pending motion in the January 6th federal case seeks a similar order restricting Trump's speech to protect the judge, prosecutors, FBI agents, and witnesses from denigration that could taint the jury pool and affect justice administration. Concerns arise that Trump's inflammatory rhetoric incites violence, referencing past incidents like threats against the DC district court judge and attacks on the FBI after Mar-a-Lago. While Trump may be trying to provoke judges, attacks on court staff and other parties should be viewed as equally unacceptable. Judges may hesitate to issue orders that could be perceived as restricting a candidate's free speech during a campaign.

Representative Swallow, who was not injured on January 6th, is the plaintiff in a personal injury lawsuit against Donald Trump. The lawyer representing Trump questions if Swallow's chances of success in the lawsuit would improve if the proceedings against Trump are successful. Swallow denies this. The lawyer also highlights that Swallow and other politicians have used the word "fight" in their speeches without advocating for physical violence. The lawyer presents tweets from Swallow's Twitter account as evidence. Swallow confirms writing the tweets but clarifies they were metaphorical and not calling for violence. The lawyer then discusses other tweets from Swallow's account related to the January 6th investigation. Finally, the lawyer questions Swallow about tweets from Trump that were not shown during the proceedings.

Specific examples of violent incidents and controversial statements on social media are discussed, with questions directed at a witness regarding their own rhetoric. The witness is challenged on their characterization of events and is asked to update their testimony based on new information.

There is a discussion about government censorship on Twitter. Speaker 0 claims there is no evidence of government censorship of lawful speech. Speaker 1 presents an email from the Biden administration requesting the removal of a tweet. Speaker 0 asks for the tweet to be read, but it is not available. Speaker 1 argues that the tweet was about lawful speech because it was from Robert Kennedy Jr. Speaker 1 accuses the administration of trying to censor speech. The discussion continues, with Speaker 1 requesting the tweet to be entered into the record. The video ends with Speaker 1 mentioning the tweet was about Hank Aaron's death after receiving the vaccine.

Biden's special counsel, Jack Smith, is seeking a gag order against Donald Trump to prevent him from making inflammatory statements about witnesses, jurors, or prosecutors involved in his case. Trump, the current Republican front runner, criticized Biden for weaponizing the DOJ and FBI against him while denying him the right to comment. The judge's ruling on the gag order is pending.

The speaker wrote to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, asking him to remove the president's Twitter account. The speaker believes this is not a free speech violation because Twitter, as a corporation, has terms of use policies that dictate who can speak on the platform. The speaker claims Donald Trump has violated these terms and should face consequences. They assert he has used his platform as president to incite fear and potentially incite harm against a witness to a possible crime against the country and democracy. The speaker is asking Twitter to revoke the president's privilege to use the platform, as they have done in the past when users violated the terms of use.

Speaker 0 believes President Trump's Twitter account should be suspended because his tweets directed at the whistleblower and others are irresponsible and could result in harm. Speaker 0 asserts that social media sites must understand their power and be held responsible, as they directly address millions without oversight. Speaker 1 questions whether removing the president's account would violate free speech, as the president has the same rights as anyone else. Speaker 0 argues that Twitter, as a corporation, has terms of use that Trump has violated. Speaker 0 claims Trump has used his platform to incite fear and potentially harm a witness, and Twitter should revoke his privilege, as it has done in the past.

A speaker claims that in Britain, over a quarter of a million people have been issued non-crime hate incidents, and people are imprisoned for reposting memes and social media posts. They ask if the Trump administration would consider political asylum for British citizens in this situation. Speaker 1 responds that they have not heard this proposal or discussed it with the president, but they will speak to the national security team to see if the administration would entertain it.

The federal criminal trial of Douglas Mackie began in Brooklyn, with the Biden administration allegedly trying to imprison him for online jokes against Hillary Clinton in 2016. One meme encouraged people to "Text Hillary to 59925" to vote from home. Mackie is charged with conspiring to interfere with citizens' rights, facing a potential ten-year sentence. The DOJ's key witness is allegedly an FBI informant from Mackie's group chat, but the DOJ is limiting the cross-examination of this witness and preventing his name from being said in court, citing potential online harassment. A Southern Poverty Law Center representative allegedly intimidated a defense expert witness, George Hawley, who then withdrew from the case. The trial has been postponed. The speaker claims the case violates the constitution and free speech.

The judge has issued a gag order on President Trump, preventing him from discussing the special counsel or the court. However, he can still talk about Joe Biden and his administration, even though they oversee the special counsel. The judge's restrictions on disparaging and inflammatory speech seem unclear, especially in the context of politics and campaigns. Media presence in the courtroom influences public opinion, yet President Trump is not allowed to defend himself. The special counsel appears to be politically motivated, aiming to harm President Trump's chances in the upcoming election. This weaponization of government is concerning and goes against the principles of free speech. The court's actions set a dangerous precedent for silencing speech, potentially affecting the media and ordinary citizens in the future.

The FBI forced social media platforms to remove information from conservative sources, claiming it was disinformation. Speaker 0 asks for a definition of disinformation, but Speaker 1 avoids directly answering. Speaker 0 points out that Elvis Chan, a key witness, testified that 50% of alleged election disinformation was taken down or censored, including content from American citizens. Speaker 1 denies this and states that the FBI does not moderate content or influence social media companies. Speaker 0 insists that Speaker 1 should read the court opinion. The transcript ends abruptly.

A man is going to federal prison for sharing a meme during the meme wars of 20. The meme made a joke about Hillary Clinton supporters being too unintelligent to vote by text. It was meant as satire and did not actually convince anyone to vote incorrectly. The Department of Justice couldn't find anyone who believed the meme or voted on the wrong day. In contrast, a Chinese American Trump supporter named Christina Wong made a similar joke about voting for Trump on November 9th, but she faced no consequences. This highlights a double standard and the political prosecution of speech.

Free speech is being attacked, and I want to mention that the 25th amendment doesn't pose any threat to me. However, it might have consequences for Joe Biden and his administration. Remember the saying, "be careful what you wish for."

The speaker questions the witness about approximately 50,000 text messages expressing personal beliefs such as "f Trump, stop Trump, impeach Trump." The speaker asks the witness to confirm that these messages were not sent on official FBI devices or time, but the witness admits that many were. The speaker suggests the witness's previous claim of never crossing a line was false, given the numerous messages expressing anti-Trump sentiments on official channels. The speaker questions whether the witness understands why some people don't believe him and why his involvement in investigations concerning President Trump is troubling, considering his expressed desire to "f him, to stop him, to impeach him." The speaker implies this could cast doubt on the integrity of those investigations.

The president can pardon individuals before they're charged. Trump may issue a plan. Influencers can help. The situation is fluid. Powell can't reach him. Handlers block her. Unclear who will enact the plan. Don't talk politics.

The speaker states that the Secret Service visited their house because of a social media post saying "8647," which the speaker clarifies means "get rid of Trump." The speaker insists this phrase is a call for impeachment, the 25th amendment, or voting Trump out of office, not assassination. According to the speaker, Trump claimed on the news that "8647" means assassinate him. The speaker denies ever calling for violence against anyone, especially the President. They say the Secret Service agents were friendly and said they were sent by Washington. The speaker claims that right-wing social media accounts used "8646" to mean "get rid of Biden" when he was president. The speaker believes Trump is trying to create a new meaning for the phrase to target those who disagree with him and asserts they will not be intimidated into silence.

President Trump is reportedly considering preemptive pardons, raising concerns about the precedent it sets and how it affects perceptions of the U.S. as a nation of laws. This approach to pardons and policy-making via social media will not be part of our administration. We will adopt a fundamentally different approach to the justice system.

Speaker 0 states: "It's disruptive. It's ridiculous." "Obviously, it's to persecute an enemy, which I can't believe the FBI is being so politicized." "However, I will say, if he would have testified in the first impeachment hearing, maybe we wouldn't be here." "So there's a little bit of karma also."
