ommittee was as corrupt as they looked. I mean they looked corrupt without even knowing this. But I would say this is confirmation of their corruption. And I think the January 6 committee committed a worse crime than anybody did on January 6th. I think the committee committed a far worse crime than even the people who did violence. Even the people who did violence, I'm including them, were not nearly as bad as what the January 6 committee attempted to do. Because the violence as bad as it was, clearly a tragedy, we have empathy for the victims. All right, I'm not making light of victims. But they were individuals and there weren't that many of them. But when you corrupt the country, the entire system as grossly as the January 6 committee, even without the bloodshed, I've got to say it's worse. If you found out that the republic were overthrown tomorrow you wouldn't say to yourself well nobody died. You'd say okay that's worse because down the road it's going to be much worse. So that's probably exactly what it looks like.

Kyle Becker again reporting on that. Chris Cuomo went on the Patrick Bet-David show. Do I have his name right? Podcast. And here's what he said. This is Chris Cuomo. He said as Patrick says the data is the data. Nobody was trying to kill us when Trump was president in a way that they're not now. In a way that they're not now. I think that's a typo. If anything there's more hostility. So PBD says so you're open to a Trump vote. This is Chris Cuomo who had been on CNN until he went to NewsNation. And Cuomo says I am always open. And I'll tell you this. People say oh you're never voting for a Republican in your life. And Cuomo says wrong. And not only have I, the first vote I ever cast was for a Republican.

All right, let's do a test. Do you believe that he's telling the truth, that he would consider—he's not saying he would vote for him but that he would seriously consider voting for Trump? You're very mixed. I see lots of yeses and lots of nos. I'm going to tell you the definitive answer to this because Chris Cuomo was among the first, you can say the first major news person who asked to talk to me after I got canceled. Now it took him some convincing so we had some extensive private conversations before I appeared. And I'm not going to tell you my private conversations but I will tell you with certainty he means it. With certainty. Based on private conversations with certainty he means that he's open to it.

Now again I want to be clear I'm not saying that he's certainly voting for Trump. Nothing like that. I'm saying that he is absolutely open to the argument. And again if you didn't talk to him personally you wouldn't have any sense of that because you're only seeing the public version. But keep in mind what's the worst thing that happened to Chris Cuomo professionally and who did it to him? It wasn't Republicans. Getting canceled on CNN was the worst thing that's ever happened to him and that was purely Democrats, right? And do you know what I said when he was getting in trouble for helping his brother the governor of New York? I said he can help his brother all day long. I don't care if there's a conflict of interest. Everybody knows that's the most obvious conflict of interest that it couldn't be more transparent. He couldn't be more honest about it. He would have his brother on and do giant Q-tip jokes and obviously he was going to help his brother. And who would want him not to? Who would want him not to? Crazy. Insane.

But now imagine you went through that. And I told him that I was one of his supporters on that. Absolutely. That was just so wrong that they took him out for that. So when I tell you that you don't know exactly what his private thoughts are—his CNN performance was more of a performance. But when he dealt with me it was totally straight. He asked tough questions because he should and he listened completely to my answers. He didn't talk over me no more than a normal interview. And he was completely a legitimate honest agent on that issue. And I think you're completely wrong. In fact I'm sure of it with complete certainty. He's absolutely open to looking at both sides. Absolutely.

And by the way that's called reciprocity, what I just did. But I'm telling you right he treated me fairly when almost nobody was. So I'm defending him because I owe him. So that's payback.

All right. Ukraine is allegedly going on defense. So the new orders are to dig in and defend rather than being on the offense. So I wo
