The following is a transcript from the Pro America Report.
Welcome, welcome. Welcome! It’s Ed Martin here on The Pro America Report, hey, it’s a great day to be together. Got some really interesting interviews coming up today.
We’ve got Daniel Bolz. Sorry. Let me get it right, BOLZ, he’s got this incredible idea for a new Statue of Liberty. On the West Coast. I’ll let him explain it. I’m not quite sure I see it, but he’s got a book about it and we’ll see. So a very interesting man, business guy and loves America, loves liberty. He loves freedom.
And then we’ll talk with Dr. Edward Bartlett now. He founded an organization called SAVE about 10 or 15 years ago. And it was focused on how on college campuses they use Title IX To target people he himself was a professor and they target people and the system does not allow Title IX Any opposition to be, let me say, let me say this carefully. The use of Title IX for Title IX complaints on college campuses was done by, dominated. By the idea that always believed the woman, generally, there was almost always women that were making a complaint of her, complaint of harassment or something against a professor or another student, and it therefore the system became very, very stacked against the person who was accused. So much so that Doctor Bartlett, when he started SAVE, this organization. He basically was saying, look, we’re just protecting due process. You you have a right to confront your accuser. You have a right to have a tribunal that you know the that the court you’re being processed in, where there’s a hearing to be not stacked against you, etcetera, etcetera. Well, it’s very, very interesting to to see this. And to to see now how he and his organization are spending a bunch of their time talking about the realities of the the gender movement and how basically what happened with Title IX is spreading into all sorts of aspects of American life. So we talk with him.
But the biggest thing that I want to tell you that’s. Interesting hearing from him will be this. Today’s WYNK, What you need to know today is. I want to talk to you about one aspect of lawfare. One aspect of lawfare and I want to use the Fani Willis case.
She’s the Fulton County District Attorney. She’s elected to her job. I am told. It’s reported that she is supported by Soros, the Soros groups that want these leftists in office. And she’s been in office. And she made, ran for office, saying she would target certain aspects of her job. Excuse me. She would focus them on certain things, including. She would be against Trump. She’s not as bad as the Attorney General of New York, who ran, like, basically campaigning, saying I’m gonna get Trump. But this woman, you know, so here she is.
Now here’s the problem In America. Our system says that you, the prosecutor who have the ability to take. Away me from me, my freedom. My property and and in a particular way you have to have a very high standard. You have to have, due process says that you should have a, a tribunal, a, a court that is impartial, that you should have prosecutors who are shooting straight that don’t have conflicts of interest. And so let me pause and say this when I say that a a tribunal that’s impartial, that is not biased. Against the the defendant that includes the judge, of course, that includes the jury, of course, but it also includes the prosecutor that, yes, the prosecutor can have a position. In other words, can have a view on a on a decision. In fact, they have to if they decide to charge you, they’re going to they they believe that they can prove it. They can believe they can prove it, but they also believe that the that the reality is that they’re going to be above board, they’re going to have a certain objectivity. It’s a kind of a calling. It’s a kind of a calling, a very specific one.
So what we have in the case of Fannie Willis is someone who has shown That she is antagonistic to President Trump. OK, that’s a political position. Could be tolerable. She’s shown that she has not. She’s played fast and loose with the charging who she charged, how she charged them. She’s played fast and loose with the hiring of this prosecutor, her boyfriend. It appears She’s not told the truth in terms of her, her relationship with him, she spent more money than is usual in a case like this, paying her paramour, her boyfriend. She also spent time, and he spent time in Washington, DC at the White House. And then. Maybe at the Maybe the vice president’s office. The the reports are somewhat conflicting, but it certainly is true that she has been sort of knee deep in and again, not just in politics, but in the appearance, the appearance of irregular conduct. Which gets to this point.
When you’re a defendant in a case where you could lose your liberty, you’re not only entitled to fairness and good treatment, you’re entitled to the appearance. The appearance has to matter and and what? Why? Because you’re gonna go before a jury in this case and the jury, you know, has to have you. You cannot be mistreated. You cannot show conflict of interest. You can have conflict of interest anyway, so that’s what’s going on. Fani Willis is the the now poster child. For the mistreatment of defendants by Soros prosecutors.
And what I want to say is there is something about the Soros prosecutors that they seem to be doing this. Not only are they radically left and targeting people in ways that are ethically, perhaps legally problematic, but they’re doing them in such a way that they’re Making the system look terrible, they’re making our system of government of governing look horrendous. They are undermining what we the people expect a prosecutor to do. That’s what’s happening before our eyes now. There was a hearing and Donald Trump was at the hearing actually with Fani Willis. And I don’t know yet. And in many of the details, we’ll. See what we find out.
But we need more. We need more accountability of these Soros prosecutors, and if the accountability cannot come through the legal system, if it’s not being done by the judges, who should be throwing this stuff out. The judges should be saying, look, I know you know and and that’s actually there’s a series of checks and balances that represent again due process. You have the Criminal Code that’s true. You have a grand jury. That’s true. You have a judge, you have a prosecutor with discretion, all along those ways there are checks and balances and and sometimes they get it wrong, sometimes the. The the prosecutor says I’m not taking it to a grand jury. I don’t want to do it. Sometimes the jury rejects it. Sometimes the judge. Turns around and says, hey, Fani Willis, you’re really out of line. And therefore we’re not going to allow you to charge this or we’re not going to allow you to charge this because the charges don’t work or in this case, you’re conflicted out. You have massive conflicts of interest that show that you can’t do this well and appropriately. Whatever the reasons that she did what she did, I don’t know. I can’t read her mind.
Her conduct brings into question the entire system. I do it over and over I Say it over and over again. The crown Jewel of America Is our legal system our our Constitution The Rule of law. And the values that hold our legal system together. And when you have this kind of conduct from a Soros prosecutor it it’s from a prosecutor In general, it’s devastating.
And what I want to say here is I believe there needs to be a significant public outcry, that they there needs to be a significant public attention. There should be public attention to the fact that these Soros prosecutors are so seriously, ethically challenged. And criminally, in some cases. In St. Louis, where I’m from, the prosecutor resigned because she had, and actually, after she resigned, it came out that she had. I don’t think it was her boyfriend, but she had hired all kinds of people to be expert witnesses and to be assistant investigators that weren’t shouldn’t have been. They got paid a lot of money. Who knows? I don’t know if we knew it and know anything at this point.
By the way, Fani Willis, the Fulton County prosecutor in Georgia, she’s in a box because what usually happens at this point when you have so much negative publicity is you just resign. But she can’t resign because, I mean, she could, but she’s not resigning because she knows she’s got this utterly controversial case that she has to take, and she can’t let somebody take it for her. So she’s actually trapped in a position where she probably made her. Her future, much more difficult. Criminally. Perhaps she could be charged. Looks like she Might have, if the Reports were accurate. She might have committed perjury by lying about what, When the relationship started now, she’ll probably say she was just confused, but still, whatever it is, whatever the reason, it’s not good for her. But usually you just get to this point. But we we need to.
The scrutiny needs to go up on all the Soros funded prosecutors, it should be a red flag. At this point, there’s enough 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 of these prosecutors where where we’ve seen their conduct so problematic, we just have to say, if you are Soros supported candidate, we have to dig into what you’re doing and and because we know from experience, not because we’re anything against you Personally, but because from experience we know that that’s who’s being supported and maybe recruited. Certainly looks like it’s who you’re ending up with in places where Soros supports them.
So Fani Willis is probably doing us a favor by destroying her case and then damaging her career prospects, but it’s certainly ugly, ugly and bad for the crown jewels. This country, you know, our rule of the Constitution, rule of law, and our founding values. So that’s what you need to know.
We got to take a break. We’ll be right back. It’s Ed Martin here on the Pro America Report.
