Trey did you hear that . The court of Public Opinion, she says. It would have to be the court of Public Opinion because what you will see next week bears no similarity to a real court. In a real court, there is a judge was fair and neutral. Next week, the Presiding Judge is senator Patrick Leahy who has already voted twice to convict and remove donald trump from office. He would never be allowed to preside in a real court. In a real court there is a jury of women and men who have not already made up their minds. That is the only one quality you must have two serve on a real jury in a real court. There are 50 democrats will vote to convict next week no matter what the evidence is. In a real court, the jury is told to wait until the very end to reach any conclusions, in fact, you are forbidden from even beginning to reach conclusions until the very end. But not next week. In a real court, there are rules of evidence, rules about what kind of evidence can be admitted and i doubt you will see any of those rules next week. In real courts there is crossexamination. As you know, Cross Examination is the single best way to determine whether a witness is telling the truth or not. There will be no crossexamination next week because i dont think theres going to be any witnesses next week. Nancy pelosi says we will see if the senate is made of courage or cowardice ill tell you what takes real courage. It takes real courage to be fair to your enemies. That takes courage. Anyone can protect their friends and attack their enemies, real courage is when you are fair to everyone, even those you dont like. House prosecutors have asked donald trump to testify and he has refused their invitation despite threats of a subpoena. Those same prosecutors may ask the senate to draw a negative inference if he refuses to show up. You know what happens in real court . Its exactly the opposite. Prosecutors cannot comment on the silence of a defendant in real court and if you do, not only will you lose your case, you might lose your law license and there is no negative inference in a real prosecution, and fact its the opposite. You are presumed innocent. Democrats are free to talk about their court of Public Opinion, i would rather talk about real court where real people make tough decisions based on the facts and the laws regardless of politics. The rules and procedures we will use in real court rooms are not right and fair simply because we use them in court rooms, its really the opposite. It is the rightness and the fairness that came first, you wont see that next week. Speaker pelosi, if youre looking for the court of Public Opinion, we actually have them. Theyre called elections, popularity wins. In the other court, and the real court, fairness wins. What really takes courage is to know the difference between the two senator tom cotton has a Front Row Seat to the democrats impeachment theater, he will serve as the 100 jurors in next weeks trial and he joins us right now. From the great state of arkansas, how are you . Im good, good to see a guest this week. Trey thank you. You know what i had going through my mind when i heard cowardice . If im not mistaken, you signed up for combat after law school, not jagged, but combat, coward would not be a word i used in connection with you what do you think about what i said the . Maybe i joined the army as an Infantry Officer as a reflection of what a bad lawyer i was. I heard Speaker Pelosi say if we have a senate of cowardice or courage but we know we have a House Of Fools because they elected nancy pelosi to be there speaker. Not a single witness, not a single document, they rushed it over to the senate, they didnt actually deliver the papers in time to have a trial. Now they want to proceed with a plainly unconstitutional impeachment proceeding to convict and remove a man from office who left office two weeks ago. I think the American People think its pretty strange the democrats are still obsessing about donald trump when we are trying to address the problems they face. Whether its people who are out of work or cant get vaccinated or have their schools closed, thats what democrats should be focused on and what im focused on. Trey youre married to a real prosecutor, i was average but i did it for a long time. We couldnt make defendants testify and you cant draw a negative inference if they dont come in its the opposite. What are House Managers talking about making him come testify . If they think he is committed a crime, doesnt have the right not to incriminate himself . You would think so and it contradicts exactly what they have been saying for the last three weeks, they have been saying they didnt need to have hearings, they do need to have witnesses or documents. The evidence was manifest it was in front of everybodys eyes on tv, we all saw at spirit if thats the case where they ask him donald trump himself to testify in person. Trey what do you expect next week, do you think they are going to call witnesses, where will be crossexamination exhibits like a real trial . I dont know, i have not heard the legal strategy from either the president s legal team with the House Managers. As a juror i will sit and listen to everything they have said but my view has been very clear, its beyond Constitutional Authority from the senate and impeachment proceedings to convict and remove from office a man who is already left office. Trey ive served with you for a number of years, you do your homework. For you to reach the conclusion that trying a president who has left office violates the constitution there must be a reason for it, what led you to that conclusion . Look of a constitution, it said its pleasantly the president and Vice President and all civil officers of the United States will be susceptible to impeachment, donald trump is none of those things at this moment and usually when the text of any law to include the constitution is plain, thats the end of it. I will also point out the democrats have not invited chief Justice John Roberts to sit at the Impeachment Trial as the constitution requires. That just further reinforces the democrats know they are not having a trial of the president , they are having a trial, an inquest into a private citizen. If its not constitutional nor should it be the focus of the senate right now when we are still dealing with this pandemic and mass unemployment. Trey you mentioned the pandemic, what are some of the other things the senate could be doing. If 45 members of the jury said youre not going to convict conviction, if youre going through a trial that cannot get a conviction, what should you be doing . I wish we were working in bipartisan fashion to address the needs of the American People improved Vaccine Distribution certain states, look at what joe biden the democrats are doing now. After Preaching Unity he has governing from the hard left in a highly partisan fashion. We spent more than 4 trillion to help combat this pandemic and a lot of that money is still not spent. The average vote on those bills was over 90 u. S. Senators out of 100, in many of those cases we had a unanimous vote to get the very first thing joe biden does is go to the hard left and refused to cooperate with any republicans and now we are voting tonight on their budget and look at what some of these amendments the democrats are voting down. 50 democrats just voted against Withholding Covid relief money from schools that dont reopen even after their teachers are vaccinated. Another 50 voted against denying money to cities and counties that dont cooperate with Immigration Enforcement spirit 42 out of 50 democrats voted to give Stimulus Checks to illegal aliens. It goes to show just how partisan and radical the democrats in joe bidens washington Are Governing right now. Trey we got about one minute but it seems like some republicans are of the opinion that if youre going to go forward with this Impeachment Trial, we are going to have a difficult time confirming your cabinet and hes chosen impeachment over cap next, we got about 45 seconds, what is your reaction to that . Once the senate is sitting over a quart of impeachment it takes precedent over all the business, we wont have any votes to confirm the cabinet, a few cabinet members already confirmed that this is going to push us further into february getting joe bidens cabinet confirmed, it goes to show again with their priority is, their priority is to continue to obsess about donald trump even after he left office more than two weeks ago and we have a lot of problems we should be addressing. Trey thank you for joining us, i hope you enjoy your jury service next week. Thank you. Trey today, President Biden went to the State Department to make a big announcement. Hes going to clean up the mess allegedly left by mike pompeo. Former Secretary Of State is here with us next with his response.

Trey President Biden made his first Foreign Policy speech saying america is back i didnt know went anywhere. Mike pompeo is here next but first Trace Gallagher has a has Key Takeaways from the speech. Good to see you on both china and russia, biden played a good cop bad cop. On china, president said he is willing to work with beijing when its in americas interest not to be confused with America First. Biden also said he would confront chinas economic abuses, human rights violations, and attacks on intellectual property, he did not offer details. On russia, mr. Biden revealed an agreement to extend a Nuclear Arms Treaty but also offered this warning, watch. I made it clear to President Putin in a manner very different from my predecessor that the days of the United States rolling over and the face of russias aggressive actions interfering with our elections, cyber attacks, poisoning its citizens are over. The president directed defense secretary lloyd austin to review the global footprint of u. S. Forces to make sure its appropriate for national security. He also stop the withdrawal of more than 9,000 u. S. Troops from germany, former President Trump authorized pulling those troops out saying germany needs to pay more for its own defense. President biden announced in end to american support for offensive operations in yemen where saudi led forces are fighting the iranian backed houthi rebels, he did say america would continue to help saudi arabia defend its sovereignty and the president plans to increase the number of refugees admitted into the u. S. This Executive Order will position us to be able to raise the Refugee Admissions back up to 125,000 persons for the first full fiscal year of the bidenharris administration. The Trump Administration set the refugee cap at 15,000. Trey joining me now with his first reaction to all of this, former Secretary Of State, former head of the cia, former congressman of the great state of kansas, mike pompeo. Mr. Secretary, how are you . Great To Be With You tonight, thanks for having me on the show good to see you. Trey its good to see you too. President biden said america is back, i didnt know we went anywhere, what is your reaction to that . Goodness gracious, back. Does he mean back to when isis controlled a caliphate in syria that was the size of britain . I hope not, President Trump and our team took that down. Does that mean letting china walk all over us, destroying millions of jobs in places like kansas and South Carolina that we know so well . I hope thats what he means by back. He talks about allies, does he mean back to disrespecting allies and friends like israel and treating the terrorists in iran it like friends by giving them cash, i dont think the American People can afford to go back to eight more years of Barack ObamasForeign Policy. I hope they move forward with a policy much more like our America First policy. Trey i want to ask you about three countries in particular, lets start with china. We know what china has done to this country via the pandemic. You are acutely aware of what china is doing and has done to its own citizens, what you have to say about that. China is behaving in a way we havent seen any nation behave since the 1930s. We have All Over The World and in washington, d. C. , and los angeles, we have museums that talk about the horrors that took place and we talk about never again yet on our watch, on our time we are watching the Chinese Communist party engage in exactly those same kinds of behaviors with respect to the uighurs and other minorities there, the world has a responsibility to take this on. I have determined this was a that is taking place and i hope this administration will take it as seriously as President Trump and our team did. Trey he mentioned russia and election interference. I had the pleasure of working with you in the house, youre as tough on russia as anybody i know, what is this notion that all of a sudden we are going to get tough on russia . If you remember, the interference that he is referring to took place when he was the Vice President of the United States. This with the election in 2016, long before the Trump Administration came into power. In the election in 2020, we worked hard to prevent russia from interfering in our election, im proud of the work we did and part of the work we did to push back against russia. They took crimea during the obama administration, i dont think our friends and allies want that, i know the American People dont want it. Trey the president said the diplomats job is to rebuild trust around the world. This is what has me vexed. A few months ago, we were killing an iranian general, now he wants to sit at the Bargaining Table with the iranians about nuclear weaponry. How do you go from killing generals to saying we trust you enough even though you still want to push israel into the water . That particular general was plotting to kill americans and we werent going to let it happen, the stomach President Trump was ago to let it happen. The world said it was going to grade world war iii, but it demonstrated americas ability to execute deterrence against iran. Going back would be a calamity for the gulf states, calamity for our friend and partner come of the jewish homeland of israel and a calamity for the people of the dead states of america which presents real risks of the Worlds LargestState Sponsors of terror will have the resources and capacity to do real harm. Trey the president today also said our relations with some of our allies have been neglected and abused. What is your reaction to his perception of our relationship with our allies . When i was the Secretary Of State, i shot straight, there was some cold receptions in brussels and in some of the salons of europe, there is no doubt about that. Im proud of the work we did. We spoke the truth, we didnt we knew the world as we wished it to be. What we did was deliver good
