then you and i are going to talk just at the very a little easter egg here at the top about a new show you and i are going to do that we call wait for it everybody global af about how the the world is responding good bad or indifferent to donald trump and the incoming presidency
what they can do to rein him in or what they can do to to salvage their own economies and governments we're watching we're watching european countries and countries in like canada starting already to collapse before donald trump even takes office oh we have so much to talk about anthony first of all good close friend of mine you and i had a long chat yesterday didn't expect to be on the horn with you today but i'm so glad to see you how are you
I agree with you. I don't know what the stages of grief were, but I collapsed them all instantly into anger and fighting back. I've been to Miami today. and I took a plane ride. I mean, I took a cab ride to get to the airport and I had a very nice conversation with a guy who instantly recognized me from the show, at least my voice, and we had a long chat.
He had his own legal AF in the back of this car. And he gave me, whenever I meet, I'm able to meet a lot of people in New York, who know the show, he gave me a lot of confidence. He said to me, you know what I like about you and the show? You guys aren't scared of Donald Trump. And maybe you should be, but you're not. And it gives me a lot of confidence. And we're not scared.
I mean, first of all, we're going to talk about the ABC story in a second. I just want to touch on the
the the amazing get by the midas touch network and by ben mysellus and his brothers to have joe biden give what normally would be like on 60 minutes is on the midas touch network and there's a good reason for it we as an american people can no longer trust if we ever did corporate or mainstream media to do the right thing to defend the first amendment the freedom of the press
Instead, they're so worried about their stock price, their licenses, their government contracts, depending upon their parent companies. And now you have this whole parade. It's like they must be standing in line like at Katz's Deli in New York to get in to see Mar-a-Lago and kiss his ass. It's like Apple and Facebook and Amazon. Joe and Mika were first in line, weren't they? Joe and Mika.
I mean, they must bump into each other in the parking lot on the way into Mar-a-Lago. That means what we've been saying is true, that independent media that exists on the ecosystem of YouTube, like the Midas Touch Network and all of the channels and things that we do,
is really the only place because they can't yank my license i mean they can try they can't they can't i don't i don't have a military contract with them i don't have anything that they can take away from me and i'm not worried about them like kash patel going after you know uh olivia troy uh with threatening ridiculous demand letters i don't care about that i've been a practicing lawyer for 33 years and i'll defend myself and everybody on this network from false attacks of defamation
There's a big article today. I don't know if you saw it, Anthony. Do you see the article in Times about the new strategy of the MAGA is going to be, and now that they've been successful with ABC and Disney, the new strategy is going to be to use the investigations and defamation actions.
Well, as we get into the ABC story, let's look at it this way. Jeff Bezos, who bought the Washington Post and then drowned it, in a bathtub. You know, democracy dies in the darkness? Yeah, it died. It died because he has, Amazon has $30 billion, with a B, billion dollars worth of military contracts with the US government.
Jeff Bezos parties with Ivanka and Jared, their next door neighbors in Florida, right down the street from where I'm at right now. He was never going to allow the Washington Post to bring down another president the way Catherine Graham did
And Disney, let's now turn to Disney. Disney, which owns ABC, already got bashed. during the woke era by DeSantis in Florida. Even though they sort of won that, not really. They didn't want to go through it again. Donald Trump in 2017 tried to block, this is known, he tried to block the sale of CNN by Time Warner. because he hated the CNN coverage.
And ABC and Disney don't want to get on the wrong side of Donald Trump. From a First Amendment freedom of speech position, what George Stephanopoulos said in his interview with Nancy Mace, which was consistent with what a federal judge said that Donald Trump was technically a rapist, was easily defendable in Miami, in the courtroom that I'm in all the time down in the Southern District of Florida.
We said that from the beginning on Legal AF. They were never going to settle this case, we said.
because they're in the right just to bring you know i don't want to talk in shorthand for the whole show i want to bring everybody up to speed in an interview back in march nancy mace who's a representative a lot of people know her now because she won't let a transgender member of congress use the bathroom of their choice um and she's she's i almost said balls out on this i read some of her her social media posts she's disgusting on the issue i'll just put it at that but she's also run uh for office um on a platform that she was a rape survivor
It's public. She talks about it. It's part of her personal story. I have no reason to doubt it. That's not my point. But when George Stephanopoulos said to her in an interview, how can you support Donald Trump? where at least two juries, federal juries in New York have adjudged him to be. And then he used the R word. He should have said technical rapist, which is what the judge said.
And the reason we're hung up on the semantics here and splitting hairs over something ridiculous, because whether you're a sex abuser in New York or you're a rapist in New York, I don't see how you could ever be defamed. I don't know how Donald Trump with his reputation could ever be defamed anyway. You have to have an unsullied reputation in order to be defamed. But the issue is this.
In New York, at the time that E. Jean Carroll was sexually assaulted by Donald Trump, she could not accurately testify to the jury because her eyes were closed because she was being sexually assaulted. She could not tell them what part of Donald Trump was inside of her. whether she was digitally or with a penis.
And so the jury said, okay, sexual abuse under the law as it existed in New York at the time. The law has been changed. Now it would be rape. And the judge said when Donald Trump tried the same defamation trick against E. Jean Carroll to try to sue the victim, In that court case, the judge says, because she used the R word, the judge says, no, technically you are a rapist.
