| 0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, in comes Viva for the British golfing voiceover for the intro video. |
| 0:08.4 | This is a moment when Nick Soto was probably asking himself, |
| 0:11.4 | What the hell did I just get myself involved in? |
| 0:15.1 | I'll play it out before we bring in our guest of the day. |
| 0:18.0 | Behold! It was dead. It was dead. |
| 0:38.3 | It was at that moment. |
| 0:53.3 | They realized... Get out of the way! |
| 0:55.0 | Maybe this wasn't a good idea. |
| 0:57.0 | All right, and then you see the aftermath of the people couldn't even spell the word bitch |
| 1:19.1 | properly on his car. Looks like bich. You know, we have a, we have a, is that me? We have a judge up in |
| 1:26.1 | Canada, or at least we had a Supreme Court justice whose name was Beesh, B-I-C-H, and they used to call her, her nickname was the Beesh on the bench because she was very hard in her rulings. All right, we're going to get to Nick Sortor. You all know him, independent journalist at Nick Sortor on X. Check him out. Follow him. I think you all follow him. if you're watching here. We don't have all day with him. So it's not going to be a marathon. I want to bring him in right now. Nick, sir, how goes the battle? Oh, the battle continues, man. We not letting up on it. I know like people have been upset with my story over the past 24 hours, but I stand by it. And, you know, at the end of the day, I'm a reporter, right? I'm a reporter that is trying to do right by the country. And, uh, I believe that Bovino should be a part of that. So we should probably keep around. And like full disclosure, I have it's, I, I, I, I, I sort of got the impression. I was watching you on, on, on, on crowd. I'm like, I'll, I'll invite him on. I got the impression you almost were not defensive, but like feeling as though you had to somehow justify the original story that you reported. And I don't think you do. I mean, first of all, it's not obvious that the first story you reported was wrong. There might have been a correction reaction to your original story. So you never really know if you're strictly reporting on the news or somehow influencing it, which is what I want to get into a little bit. But back it up all the way to the beginning. The initial thing, first all, tell everybody who you are and just we won't take for granted. Everybody knows who you are. Who are you, Nick? |
| 3:10.2 | Yeah, no, I'm just a Twitter guy or an ex guy now, actually. Yeah, my name is Nick Sorter. I'm an independent reporter. I travel all across the country. I spend more time on the road than I do at home in, and I live in D.C. or right near the Capitol. I used to like to be able to go over and do, |
| 3:10.1 | I had more of a conference in and I live in DC or right near the Capitol. I used to like to be able to go over and do, |
| 3:18.1 | I had more of a confrontational style where I would go up to, you know, Democrats walking around Capitol Hill and I would, |
| 3:22.9 | you know, ask them questions. I would make them think that I was a friendly at first, and then I would like hit them hard with it. |
| 3:27.3 | That strategy no longer works because they see me on TV too often. |
| 3:36.0 | But, you know, on the road, documenting stories that the mainstream media either refuses to do or just flat out lies about. |
| 3:40.4 | You've been to Lahaina, you've been to East Palestine, you've covered great stuff. |
| 3:42.4 | And look, at the end of the thing, you're definitely a journalist on the road hitting the |
| 3:47.0 | pavement and a journalist with his own personal convictions, which I don't think gets in the way |
| 3:51.1 | of your journalism because you're quite open about your own political persuasions. |
| 3:55.3 | And this is a funny thing, like, you can't get away with doing what you did before in terms |
