Ladies and gentlemen, the following segment of the podcast is presented exclusively by Hillsdale College.

Now, in its 175th year, Hillsdale is a truly independent institution.

We're learning as prized and intellectual enthusiasm as valued.

Thank you for listening, and my sincere appreciation to Hillsdale for their sponsorship.

Somewhere under the brick and steel of a non-descript building, we've once again made contact with our leader, Mike Lovett.

All right, fellow Vennites. This is a night where we have to get to the bottom of the fake obstruction claim by the Mueller Probe,

because it is fake, and as Mark Lovett himself said, it's a long, long New York Times op-ed.

Welcome tonight. The great one is off in observance of Passover. Rich is the only happy to be with you from Mark's home, City of Philadelphia.

It's amazing, too, when you think about this notion of Trump obstructed, the president obstructed.

He obstructed justice, a crime he didn't commit, but he tried to cover it up.

He tried to obstruct a crime he did not commit. He knew he didn't commit, but he tried to obstruct justice anyway to cover up a crime that he knew he didn't commit.

A crime that they know and knew he did not commit, and yet he had to obstruct.

And think of their reasoning about this. The reasoning is that the president wanted Mueller fired at one point, wanted Rosenstein to do it, and Rosenstein didn't do it.

And Dan McGahn, Dom McGahn, the White House Council, wouldn't do it.

Now, you know, one of the key things about leadership, about being an elected official, about being in government.

I've always been the guy behind the guy, but I can tell you that politicians are often very, very emotional. There's a lot of people coming at them.

Now, put yourself in Donald Trump shoes for a moment.

You have been told, since you got there, relentlessly, that you're a spy, you're a Russian stooge, you're Putin's little buddy, you're all this stuff.

And night after night, you turn on the TV, and what are you here?

You here, talking head after talking head going on about the walls are closing in. It's almost over.

The presidency's collapsing, water gate, water gate, and the kids, your kids are going to jail too.

They're going every night, night after night, night after night after night.
