Secret America LIVE - Episode 75 - Interview w/ Eric Burlison - The Truth is out [50:58-56:01]

You know, I'm not Candice Owen's crazy, but there's a lot of questions that haven't been answered Eric. What are your thoughts? And then before you leave, I got to ask you about the shutdown. So, I truly think I'm disappointed with the Department of Justice. I think that, but I think the, I think the rot is so deep that they just that they, they could not, I think they could just continue to fire and fire fire, but they got to fill it with good people. And I know a lot of really great attorneys that have presented themselves to be available that would be fantastic in our own area. We have a former US attorney Tim Garrison. And then we have Jay Ashcroft. It's advertising to me that this administration doesn't have a role for the particularly in the Justice Department. But I think that the rot is so, is so bad that they're still digging that out. And then, and they're having to work with what people that they do have that will actually work with their with this administration. So a lot more needs to be done. There's plenty of pushback within these agencies, right by the bureaucrats left over from previous administrations. Yes, absolutely. I mean, the deep state is a real thing. It's, it's absolutely, it's, it's absolutely real. I think that DC has been run by the deep state for probably the last 60 years. Well, and those bureaucrats know they can just wait it out. They've been through many administrations. It's like, he's Trump's, you know, he'll be gone. So, so Jack, I don't know what your thoughts are, but got to hit. What's the situation on the shutdown? Are you enjoying it? First of all, being home with your family a little more. It's got to be nice. You know, I hate to be like, but yeah, I mean, it's, it's been good for me personally and my family to be home. I've also been good for the districts because I've been able to go to event after event after event in the community. I go as many club meetings as I can to give speeches and to get reconnected with my district and hear them directly, right when you, when you go to all these, you know, whether it's a rotary club meeting or, you know, or you name it, you're able to actually talk to a real person. And as opposed to the, just the people that are calling you on the phone or the people that are screaming, right when you actually talk to people. The, the two things that is consistent, that I consistently hear is, you know, that, hey, this government shutdown isn't affecting me and, and keep it up. Frankly, yeah, they would love it to be to stay shut down. They, the most excited people got about the government shutdown was when they heard that Russ vote might actually terminate employees or use the shutdown to make permanent terminations of employees. I sent them a list of areas I think that they should start. I like that. I like that. But, you know, and it's sad, but I wish that they would lean into that more. I think that that would get the Democrats attention. To me, what I, what I would do, and I'm praying, you know, what I would do is I would say tomorrow, because the government shutdown, we will be terminating this agency. And, and if, and if we're still shut down in two more days, we will find another agency, and we will have to terminate employees in that agency. That's a great way. Keep it going. Just keep it going. And eventually after you start cutting all of these liberal bastions that the left and the Democratic party have created and instituted. Eventually they'll, they'll come to, you know, once you bring them to their knees, then they will actually come to the table and negotiate. But right now, they're the ones that are trying to hold the cards. Yeah, no, no, you're absolutely right. So since, since you do have to go in a few minutes, as our show is almost over, I wanted to ask you one quick question. And, you don't have to answer it if you don't want to. But I just want to know from your personal opinion. Do you think Tyler Robinson was the one that killed Charlie Kirk? And if so, do you think he was alone in that? I don't know enough about that. I mean, only from what I've seen in the news. So I think that if anything, it's clear that he was part of a community of people online that were kind of that was kind of an echo chamber. And I, and I hope the FBI continues to look into that and see what, to what extent that they knew that this was going to happen.
