That means you have judged something before you've looked at the evidence.

And this is exactly what the defense wants.

They want to continue down this path of having people argue about it, right? Because that is the last stand that they have.

They didn't even need this video.

The prosecution didn't even need this video today.

This was the nuke that they were waiting to drop at the end of everything else.

They had already established probable cause two days ago.

And the evidence... only points in one direction.

Nick, how you been, brother?

Dude, I am so glad that and I was hoping and praying for this for so long.

Just please, Antifa, just chill out for a day or two so that I can, you know, go to Washington, D.C. and experience this just rush of patriotism that was all around here.

You know, you saw people online like the leftists that were it was honestly it was kind of entertaining.

I'll just be honest with you, Dan.

whining about, oh my gosh, the jet noise, it's shaking my apartment, and I've got PTSD now.

That's the sound of freedom, baby.

It was constant cool flyovers, right?

Then they'll

hop straight from the UK to the US, say that they're only staying in the US for a week.

They end up staying for a month and they pop out the baby on the floor of a New York hospital.

Well, hopefully not on the floor, but somewhere else in a New York hospital.

And then now they're never leaving the United States ever again.

So it's one of the worst amendments that we have by far and one of the most dangerous that we have by far.

In terms of how do we get the people out of the country, I think we need to stop worrying about people's feelings.

lot of

Is it the same group of 50 people, a couple of Black Panthers, a couple of idiot activists with the Next Generation Action Network, Dominique Alexander's group? Like, who are these people outside the courtroom?

Yeah.

It's a mixture of, uh, of people from, from all of those groups.

I mean, they, they've been referred to, a lot of them, but not all of them, they're not all part of the same group as, as you mentioned.

Uh, they've been referred to collectively as, like, Black nationalist type people.

Uh, they, uh, do not have ...

E- if you looked at any of the video, uh, from yesterday or even, you know, in the days before, it, it was never really like a massive mob of people, right? It's the same people every day that were coming up there.

That's where this becomes true poison in the system.

Like, this doesn't look to me like organic protesting.

No. It's of, of course it's not organic.

For...

No, there's nothing organic about it.

I mean, tens of thousands of dollars worth of equipment, and it just shows up.

It, there just ends up being more and more and more of it, uh, and, uh, they actually aren't able to get back to their base camp at this point, uh, because of the, the fact that it's behind the lines.

So all of this stuff is just there in the street.

Yeah.

Fill us in, Nick.

Yeah, well, this is actually, honestly, Dan, this is more dangerous than what we were experiencing out in Portland and Minneapolis because the ICE agents are having to do hand-to-hand combat because they're not allowed to be using tear gas for whatever reason.

And so they're having to physically go up and disarm people that have bricks in their hands and stuff.

They have batons that they're going around with, which is a really big problem.

That's why you're seeing this brawl-like atmosphere out there, because instead of just being able to launch gear gas into the street, they're having to go up and get physical with these people.

And that's a very dangerous scenario.

And keep in mind, We're in Newark, New Jersey, right? I would much rather be in Portland.

That makes me worry, my friend.

But it's not a coincidence this happens three to four weeks before the election, right?

Yeah, no, you're 100 percent right.

I mean, they've probably been holding this against him for quite a while.

You know, he that's why he they got him to go out on TV all the time, making a total fool out of himself and taking positions that were just insane.

And the blackmail machine here in Washington, D.C., is very, very real.

And he just happens to be one of their scalps.

And I think there are going to be more.

But what are they thinking? I mean, can you even get in the mind of a Democrat why they're so upset the fraud is exposed? I mean, I think even everyday folks say, hey, let's expose the fraud.

Yeah.

No.

So, so what they do is, you saw Tim Walz, uh, say-...

I, uh, yesterday, I believe, he came-- all the days run together at this point, man.

Uh, but, but Tim Walz came out and said that, "No, we, we do hand over, uh, violent illegals from our state prisons, uh, after they serve a sentence," right? Even California does that.

That's not a, uh...

That's not something big and, uh, and, bold of them, and noble.

Right.

Yeah

... captured being stolen out of a, a, a, an FBI vehicle.

That was a select-fire rifle, by the way.

It was a, a machine gun.... and it ended up in the hands of a Latin Kings gang member out here, the same gang that has a $10,000 hit out on, uh, Bovino.

So, y- you know, uh, a- and, and these are the Democrats are siding with out here.

These are the people that they're supporting.

I've gotten a bunch of eight messages in my DMs from people, uh, after I had this guy arrested yesterday.

If we stop this, uh, that, that the message will be clear, or is, do you think this is just gonna keep spreading?

Where's the mainstream journalist? Where's the mainstream media?

I mean, yeah, man, we've been asking the same question.

Like this other guy, this other legend that I'm on the show with, Ben Berkham, is the guy that was covering the border down, you know, when the Biden administration was allowing some of the worst of the worst in the world to come across.

Where was the legacy media then? You can ask the same question.

So it's up to us.

It's up to people like, you know, as the self-appointed chairman of the Council of Knicks, I'm very proud of Nick Shirley.

and what he's been able to do out there.

Nick Sortor, final word to you, my friend.

Tell me what you found out.

Well, Kash Patel obviously put out the statement just about, what, a little bit over an hour ago, saying that the investigation was conducted by over 480 FBI employees, revealed that Crooks had limited online and in-person interactions, planned and conducted the attack alone, and did not leak or share his intent to engage in the attack with anyone.

So, you know, I'd love to ask about that.

Like, I mean, does that mean that...

They've ruled out any foreign ties.

Is that what's being said here?

I remember having you on and you had all kinds of, you're like, why did they wash the blood off the roof? Why did they do this? Why did they say the incline? Like when you were out there reporting and you were trying to get answers, what's some of the stuff you found out that today you're still perplexed on why the FBI can't just confirm what you discovered or uncovered?

Well, I mean, there were a lot of things back then, of course.

Mm-hmm.

And, uh, I watched the video of this assailant just walk away and say, uh, I, I, I believe, um, uh, the police started walking, uh, with the assailant and the poli- the cop said, "You're, you're detained.

You're not free to leave." And, and, uh, that assailant said, "F you, no I'm not," and then walked away.

And-

But every time you ask, every time you see her on TV or answering a question, she makes a fool out of herself.

I mean, I don't know who you're talking about, who she's relating to.

I mean, maybe you're talking about, uh, uh, relatively speaking, in terms of Democrats who everything that they do is coordinated and not even coordinated very well.

It's, uh-

Just walk me through and walk us through your experiences last night.

Yeah.

I appreciate you guys having me here.

And, uh, uh, it's still surreal thinking about this, about how this all went down last night.

You know, I, I had said a couple of days ago on X that, uh, if... that this city is so messed up, that if I were to defend myself, I would be arrested while my assailant would, uh, get away.

And that's exactly what happened here.

Uh, I have every right...

What, what charges are you facing?

Just walk me through and walk us through your experiences last night.

Yeah, I appreciate you guys having me here, and, uh, it's still surreal thinking about this, about how this all went down last night.

You know, I, I had said a couple of days ago on X that, uh, if ...

This city is so messed up that if I were to defend myself, I would be arrested while my assailant would, uh, get away, and that's exactly what happened here.

Uh, I have every right ...

These people don't understand this.

Uh, I have every right as a journalist to be on the sidewalk and record what's going on in public.

I gotta stay undercover a little bit"? Do you think the Portland police as a group have been basically taken over by left-wing activism, and that's why they're not arresting, or do you think the police force recognizes how much a BS this is, but they're being led from above and not allowed to actually make the community safe? What's going on in your mind with the culture of the Portland police as it pertains to these protests?

So in your honest, independent opinion, in the last week and a half, have you seen a major improvement?

Well, Dan, I actually have had to live in this city for about seven months now.

So this is this is where I call home.

And I don't think there are too many people to be able to give a better opinion on this than somebody that lives.

I live like two blocks from the U.S. Capitol building.

Right.

Even in this area, I've had to worry about being mugged and carjacked and my girlfriend walking around at night.

This has been how many days? A week and a half?

It's not Trump's name, right?

Right, and they also, you know, the fact that they subpoenaed the DOJ files on the Epstein case and the communications that the Biden regime was having internally about the case, those have been subpoenaed from the DOJ as well.

But look, you know...

One of the things that bothers me about all this stuff is it's done behind closed doors, right? So we're not going to hear this testimony.

We're probably not going to know any of the substance from within.

I mean, this is the same oversight committee that was working during the Biden regime on various cases and the Hunter Biden laptop and such.

And what came of that? All the crimes that we found in that laptop and nobody was ever held accountable for any of that.

What I am worried about is if nothing comes of this, is it another opportunity for people to be like, see, they're not actually doing anything, right? This is going to inevitably put Epstein back into the talking points of the nightly news and start hurting Trump again when we're pivoting to this Obama scandal, right?

You've been there since when? Did you get on the ground on Friday or Saturday?

Friday night, as soon as I heard what was going on here, we jumped on a flight from D.C. and got here.

And I'm telling you, it is so much activity here right now, as you can tell.

I mean, it is it's quite a quite an active scene.

You have so many local, state and federal officers down here on the ground working these.

It is still a rescue operation, Dan.

So, I mean, it's constant moving, very little sleep for everybody here.

Just describe what you see out there and what you saw.

How many times between you've got siblings, you've got your dad, you've got your house, like how many times in the last couple of years since you became a figure in the movement have you and your family members been swatted?

Well, you know, it's like they swatted me before in in California just when I was out there covering the L.A. fires.

They called in and said that that I was burglarizing homes out there when I was investigating and they were watching.

I typically don't post my real time movements for this reason.

But somebody else had posted my location on X.

And minutes later, the police were there holding me at gunpoint on the side of the road out there on Pacific Coast Highway, trying to say that I had been looting homes out there.

And so they have successfully gotten me before.

This is so right.
