Will sue the DOJ if it doesn't turn over the prosecutor's notes.

0:00 Speaker 1 What is today is Congressman Jim Jordan. What should I call him? Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Because there’s so many there’s so many things going on in our country, and after Thursday Night’s debate, who knows what’s going to happen, mister chairman, give us an update. Already on Friday, the Supreme Court is making rulings. Yeah, and give us your

0:26 interpretation of what’s going on.

0:29 Speaker 2 Well, I would say it’s amazing twenty four hours for President Trump and frankly for the country. I thought President Trump in the debate last night was focused, he was funny, He was dominant, yet yet relaxed up there on the stage.

0:42 I think he’s just a real leader. You just saw it. And I loved when they were talking about retribution. I think President Trump wants a retribution, and President Trump said the retribution I want is success for the country. I truly want to make America great again. And he wants to get back to those great policies we had in

0:59 his first term, when we had a secure border, when we had saved streets, when we had two dollar gas not four dollar gas, when we had stable prices versus this record inflation, and when we had a commander in chief and President Trump who projected strength to the world versus you know what we have with Joe Biden. So

1:15 I thought he did great. And then these these two decisions we got today, basically say, Congress writes the laws, not the bureaucrat, and not some out of control prosecutor who wants to take some law twisted so he can put people in jail for a longer time. I think they’re two good decisions. So a good and good twenty

1:31 four hours for the president more important, President Trump, more importantly, a good twenty four hours for the country.

1:37 Speaker 1 Now your estimate, what else does Supreme Court owes us? They made a few good decisions on Thursday and Friday. They always a decision, do they always a decision on President Trump himself?

1:53 Speaker 2 Yeah? The immunity. The immunity decision will looks like it’ll come on Monday and we’ll see. But we’re getting I think a number of good decisions from the court. One bad one in my judgment was when they It wasn’t all bad because they remained the case, but this I did.

2:07 This whole censorship issue, something we worked a lot on here in Congress and particularly the Judiciary Committee where big government pressure is big tech to censor a certain type of speech. And uh Alito’s dissent was was tremendous. But you know that that’s remanded back to lower courts, and there’s the standard you have to show to have standing.

2:28 But I still think even though we don’t preferred a little different outcome on that case, I still think overall it’s been good. And then the other cases have been just just really good decisions for the country.

2:38 Speaker 1 Yeah. In the Supreme Court on the on the January sixth, they said, the hundreds of people have been charged. I mean, they went far beyond the call of duty. They put people in jail, in solitary confinement, and it was far beyond the call of duty.

2:58 Speaker 2 Yeah, and they enhance them. They use UH. I believe that the U. Sarbanes ox Lee, which is you know, from the financial sector. They use that as a basis for enhancing the penalties and seeking a longer term or prison term for UH for the defendants. And the court said, no, you you know, you can’t have some just prosecutor UH

3:19 decide what the law is. That’s Congress Congress clearly intended it to be focused in the financial area and that that particular law. So again, I think a win for our constitutional system. Congress writes the laws. Bureaucrats don’t write them out of control. Prosecutors don’t write them. Congress writes the law.

3:35 Speaker 1 And the same way, uh that I think the Supreme Court is addressing what the e p A Is doing, uh far beyond the call of duty.

3:45 Speaker 2 Yep, yep. That’s that’s all tied in with this this Chevron issue. And you know, these these agencies, these bureaucrats, the deep state, whatever you want to call it. The idea is that that they are running our lives when they’re not elected. Is not how ours is of works.

4:00 It’s the person who puts their name on the ballot, gets elected to Congress. They’re the ones who actually write the law, and then the executive branch enforces it. They don’t the bureaucracy and executive branch doesn’t doesn’t right it, Congress.

4:12 Speaker 1 Does, Chairman Jim Jordan, what other issues are coming before your committee, the Judiciary Committee, because it looks like the current Justice Department is taking the rule of law and through it out.

4:28 Speaker 2 Yeah, well, we know in a couple of weeks there in your Great town in your great city, that there would be the sentencing for President Trump on July eleventh. On July ninth of that week, a couple of days before, we’re going to have Brad Smith, who’s the campaign finance expert, the election law expert. We’re going to let him testify

4:50 in front and tell you know, Congress and the country what he wasn’t allowed to tell the court what Judge Merschawn would let him testify in the court in President Trump’s case. So he’ll be testifying that week, and then of course we have the sentencing on the eleventh, and then on July twelfth, mister Bragg and mister Colangelo, who

5:09 prosecuted President Trump in that ridiculous case, they’ll be down here in Washington testifying in front of our committee. So that’s what’s coming up when we get back from the fourth of July recess.

5:20 Speaker 1 Any other issues you want to put in front of the American people of things that are happening.

5:27 Speaker 2 No, Again, like I say, I’m just pleased overall with what the Supreme Court, and we need to remember we get these strong decisions from the Court because we had a president in President Trump who put gorstage Kavanaugh Cony Barrett on the court two, I mean three conservative adjurists on the highest court. Again, I think just underscoring what

5:49 a leader President Trump is. And I think the whole country got to see that last night in the in the debate.

5:56 Speaker 1 The rule of law, the last question, the rule of law of the you know, we’re crossing the edge of it in so many ways. UH, any solutions you see today.

6:11 Speaker 2 Congress needs a ressort its authority. Congress needs to use the power of the purse. Congress needs to do the do the do the oversight, the good oversight I think that we’ve been doing in this Congress. Uh, Republicans have been doing. UH and and and Congress needs to understand, just understand that fundamental principle that UH and the Court

6:29 did and their decisions that it’s Congress who puts the those individual put their name on the ballot get elected. They’re the ones who are supposed to write the law. They’re the ones who are supposed to allocate the resources for how our government functions. That’s that’s that’s how our great system works. And and we we just need to

6:47 underscore that. Uh.

6:48 Speaker 2 I think, as as I said before, that’s that’s what the Court’s ruling today, I think did chammin.

6:55 Speaker 1 Jim Jordan, chairman of the Judiciary Committee in Congress, thank you so much. And and let’s make sure America gets the twenty seventy six or three hundredth year and let’s straighten out our country.

7:07 Speaker 2 Well said. Thanks John, Thanks for all the good stuff to do. Take care. Thanks you
