Club Random with Bill Maher
Michael Franzese | Club Random

No, no, no, no, no. I'm not saying that. Let me ask you this. Kash Patel just testified in front of the confirmation hearings. Yeah, he said even he, even this fucking right-wing QAnon nut, even he says he's against Trump pardoning the J6 rioters. He said that. He did say that. Did you know that? Because some of them beat up the cops. I understand that. Right.

Okay, but did you hear what else he said? That days before this protest, Trump went to theβ€”he was in the Department of Defense at that point. And he went to Kash Patel and he said, we're going to need the National Guard there that day. We want to make sure the area is secure. They prepared and got the National Guard ready to be there.

Kash Patel himself called Nancy Pelosi, called Chuck Schumer, and called the mayor of Washington, D.C., and they all refused the National Guard. Why? Now, that could be true. If the president wants them there because he knew maybe this will get a little out of hand, why did they refuse it? I'm going to tell you what my theory is, and you can say you're crazy.

I'd have to look at those facts again, but I have heard that before from reputable sources.

Kash Patel testified to that. Testified doesn't necessarily mean it's true. Well, in the confirmation hearings. Yes, I know. Well, this is a kangaroo court. Now it's a Republican Congress. No, Democrats are questioning him too. They're questioning him, but they're not going to get to vote him out. He's going to be the... Yeah, but we're not talking about that. Whatever the vote is, the vote is.

I'm just saying I don't take it as the word of God, his testimony. But if Donald Trump requested the national God and those three people refused. That part I would definitely look into more. I mean, I have heard that from not just right-wing sources. And there was something. But plainly, when it started to go sidewaysβ€” He did not seem very invested in figuring out a way to stop it.
