pollone, James Clapper, Hillary Clinton, James Comey. I'm skipping some names that may be less familiar to you. Mark Esper, Alyssa Farah, Merrick Garland, Stephanie Grisham, Kamala Harris, Gina Haspel, former CIA, Eric Holder, Cassidy Hutchinson, Nina Jankowicz, Loretta Lynch. There's some General Kenneth McKenzie, Andrew McCabe. Man, it's a long list. I'm skipping a lot. All right, Ryan McCarthy, General Milley, Robert Mueller, Bruce Ohr, Lisa Page. You remember these names from Russia collusion. John Podesta, Susan Rice, Rod Rosenstein, Peter Strzok, Jake Sullivan, Andrew Weissmann, Alexander Vindman, Christopher Wray, Sally Yates, Adam Schiff.

Now I think every person whose name I read feels like a little bit shifty to me. But I told you that I'm not going to tolerate lawfare. I mean, what can I do about it? It's not like I have anything to do about it, but I don't have to be in favor of it. I'm not comfortable with the head of the FBI having an enemy list. Nope. Now if he'd kept this to himself and shared it with the president and said, you know, if you nominate me, I've got a long list here of going after them, that'd be fine. I'd actually be fine with that. But they better find real crimes. I am not fine with somebody who has an enemies list that doesn't come paired with what they did wrong. If this is a real list, and by the way the first thing you need to know is that this is from Mediaite, it's not from him, but they say it comes from sources from Kash. So I'll take a fact check on that. If I got any of the facts wrong, let me know.

But do you want somebody to come in to be the head of the FBI who has a list of people that he's going after? You okay with that? I'm going to say no. I'm going to say no on that. And by the way, I do think that most of the people that I read have a lot to explain. But you're going to have to come up with a lot more of a crime before I'm okay putting their names out there and saying that the FBI is going to go after them. Do I believe that he's done his homework and he has reason to believe that each of them have something to explain? Yes, probably. I think he probably did his homework. But this is not the way to present it to the public. The public can't see a list of people first because that looks like Stalin. Show me the list of people. Oh, it's all your enemies. Is that a coincidence? I'll bet we can find a crime that all of my enemies did. Nope, not cool.

So I'm going to keep my opinion open for a while. Open meaning I'm not closing down the idea of supporting Kash for that job. I'm not closing it down. I'm saying that I need to know more about this. If in his book these are the same names in the book, I don't know if this is true, but if the book has say a paragraph on each one and a specific list of crimes that are somewhat publicly obviously true, well then okay. Then it's not really like an enemies list. It's a description of the situation. So I'll wait for that because I don't trust Mediaite to just show m
