What is the point of the Jake Tapper apology tour? That's not really about apologizing. It's really more of the, hey, we're so dumb. We couldn't figure out in the D.C. press corps what everybody else knew, but somehow we went along with this nobody knew thing until the debate. What's going on here? Let's talk to our friend Ashley Brassfield. She is of the Daily Caller and Right side Broadcasting Network and she is somebody who is following this very closely. Ashley, welcome to the show. And tell me, what is the point here? Like, like from your perspective, they're now rolling out this campaign for a reason. It comes after the very interestingly timed cancer diagnosis revelation. What are they? What's the, what's the lib media doing?
- [04:08]
Unknown Listener
Well, thank you for having me on, but yes, I mean, the live media. Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson are on a media tour right now. And of course, we saw last night with Megyn Kelly held Jake Dapper's Speech of the Fire with some of these, you know, comments he's made in the past and defending the Biden family with this cover up. And it's been very interesting. We saw with another interview. And I can't imagine being Alex Thompson, especially with this press, with this book release going on right now. You know, he presented this book to a publisher and now Jake Tapper is taking over. But you know, Jake Tapper in the past, of course, you know, not covering any of this cover up as we've seen. And it's, it's quite astonishing. And a lot of us at the caller are, you know, we just can't believe it.
- [04:50]
Joe Getty
I mean, I'm sure you could go back and just do story after story about Biden having what, what we would call politely senior moments. But basically the, the, the evidence, I don't even think we could say it's evidence of, of senility or dementia. I mean, it was just apparent. Right. Everybody, we used to talk about Weekend at Bernie's, which was before your time, but it's a very bad movie if you want to, you know, go back and check about. They carry around a dead body and pretend the guy's alive. It's hard to even explain the premise because it's so stupid. But people got the, got the reference to this because it all seems so obvious that Biden was a puppet president. But now we get to the, let's dive into the most recent thing, which is the cancer diagnosis. It turns out the Biden physician is like an old family friend and, you know, New York Post asking some questions about this. What does your reporting indicate when you talk to the folks at the caller about what you're seeing here? I'm seeing a lot of experts come out and suggest it's almost impossible that they didn't know about this particular type of cancer a long time ago.
- [05:56]
Unknown Listener
Right. I mean, there's reports going all the way back to 2014 that they were not doing the blood test to, you know, screen for this type of cancer. Of course, with President Biden. And of course it's horrible news that the president has been diagnosed with such a.
- [06:09]
Joe Getty
We are, we're all very anti cancer and you know, thoughts and prayers for him to beat the cancer. But in terms of the, the diagnosis timing, I think is what it, we're, we're kind of need to actually talk about.
- [06:19]
Unknown Listener
Right. Well, I think as journalists, you are not doing your job if you're not looking into this. The timing is not making sense with the release, especially with this book with Jake Tapper going on and you know, at the caller. We've even talked to many doctors and reported on this and all of which across most of the media networks that we've been, I've been keeping an eye on, as said, this exact same thing that this cannot, this has been possibly going on six years that President Biden could have had this and you know, people covering up in the administration over these past four years that he was president and you know, the question being like who was running the show and of Course, Lindy Lee, one of the DNC finance chairs has come out as a whistleblower even before the Jake Tapper book talking about this and you know, kind of sounding the alarm and whistleblower pieces back I think going to 2022 and you know, going on Sean Ryan podcast talking about this and has been pretty public about the fact that even, you know, Jill Biden, the Harris's, all the cabinet members and aides took part in this in some way.
- [07:18]
Joe Getty
Are any of your Daily Caller colleagues planning to or do they have a scheduled that you know, interview with with Tapper on this one? Is he? Because he should. If he's going to say that right wing media, which I am a part of, I think caller's a part of, we can wear that right wing badge with pride as I think we do if we're going to be told or rather we're going to hear that we were right. Meaning correct. Shouldn't he be willing to talk to the people who were correct about this issue or is he only going to go for the most part? I know he went on Megan show talk about that on radio and you know, Megan held his feet to the fire over this. But I feel like he should be willing to go on any conservative network and explain himself because he was definitely at the center of this.
- [08:00]
Unknown Listener
I completely agree. But I also think there's a factor of this that this is possibly a ploy by CNN to basically further get more credibility from their network that they've lost ever since the election in 2024 and beyond with COVID 19 send me back all the way really with Donald Trump because they have the knee jerk reaction to do the exact opposite as what the president says or does. So I think this is honestly, you know, a bigger picture media tactic by cnn by Jake Tapper and you know, I think you're exactly right. He needs to be doing a media tour, you know, equally across the board, right wing, left wing and center media, you know, talking about this. I think that's only fair.
- [08:37]
Joe Getty
Yeah, I would think that he should be willing to. Did you see some of the Megan Tapper exchange? Did you, did you watch some of it? You know they're friends but I mean I know Megan very well. Megan was super helpful to me early, early in my career and used to have me on her show when she had a huge Fox show all the time. So I know Megan pretty well and she and Jake are friends, like social friends. She did that interview like real deal. I was not, I could have no quibble with it. I thought, and I'm just, I feel like Jake was actually a little surprised at, at the fact that she was willing to do the interview the way she did. And I don't think he's a good enough actor to pull off faking that surprise.
- [09:18]
Unknown Listener
Yeah. And it's hard to believe that you're surprised going on Megyn Kelly, as though she's not going to ask the real questions. You know, she's been known for that for many years. But even he goes back, you know, I think the interview with Katie Couric, if that's correct, yesterday as well, talking about, you know, his relationship with Hunter Biden even. And I think that's one of the segments that Meghan kind of missed and they apparently have gotten into it in the past. I think there's an exchange of a Super bowl. And even, you know, Tapper talked about, you know, just Hunter's relationship with Haley Biden BOSE FORMER WIFE and talking about just, you know, how disappointed and how honestly he thought. I think he thinks that Hunter Biden is gross in a lot of ways.
- [09:56]
Joe Getty
Oh, I mean, that was another of the like so called revelations. I remember on, on my radio show with Clay and even before that when I was doing radio solo in the evenings, just talking about the Hunter Biden laptop stuff and the prostitutes, the drugs, the crack, the baby with the stripper, that he denied that then his dad, the president denied, even though he's the grandfather to this child, the payoffs, the burisma. I mean, you could sit here. I mean, people have written whole books, you know, Miranda Devine's a friend, she wrote a whole book on this. You know, I put out a poll question today. Who's scummy are the Clintons or the Bidens? And we got a solid majority of people in this non scientific poll who think the Bidens are scummier as a family than the Clintons, which I didn't even know that was possible.
- [10:44]
Unknown Listener
Yeah, it's really incredible. And you know, you got to give credit where credit's due with the Trump family. You know, you never see this with them at all. They've come out pretty clean. But yeah, it's kind of frightening to see, you know, with after Beau's death, you know, Hunter Biden comes in and starts running the show and even Lindy Lee was talking about that she even witnessed Hunter Biden coming in on meetings without a security clearance. So it's very apparent and from firsthand experience, it sounds like from cabinet members and people in the administration, administration that he was very much involved. You know, we saw Trump pardon Devin Archer, the business partner for the Burisma deal in Ukraine. And so, I mean, the list goes on and on. As we know, it's been happening for years, even when president or President Biden was vice president with Barack Obama. The list goes on and on.
- [11:27]
Joe Getty
Our sponsor is Birch Gold. Look, I understand that there's a lot of good things going on right now. The economy. Thank you. Trump and the Republicans working with him. That's Great. We got $37 trillion in debt and we are going to have more fiscal challenges and crises ahead. Trump's not going to be president forever. Democrats can mess things up in the blink of an eye and our debt is a huge problem. Your savings are being chipped away at by inflation. That is a reality. And if you take the long view, I've been an investor in gold for over a decade. Gold makes sense. Makes sense for you to hedge against inflation and economic stability by having a portion of your savings in gold. And this is the long term play and you don't have to just take my word for it. Yeah, I've been a longtime gold Investor. Go back 30 years and see if you had bought an ounce of gold, what would it be worth today? And remember that's not, you're not having to do anything. Once you buy it, you have it. You just get to wait and see what the value of gold becomes over time. And historically there has been no more clear and universal store of value in any in the history of humanity than gold. Birch Gold Group can get you set up and they can also transfer a 401k or an IRA into a gold 401k or IRA. Especially if you got an old 401k from a job you know you don't do anymore. It's just sitting there. A great thing to do is call Birch Gold Group. Text them, text buck to 9898 98. All you have to do is text from your phone. Buck do 989898 and Birchgold will send you a free no obligation info kit, a plus rating from the Better Business Bureau. Birchgold get some gold, check it out today. They'll send you info. They're great people to work with. Text them by texting my name. Buck to 9898 98. Today I want to ask actually about a piece up on the caller. This is one of your pieces that I saw. Democratic Pennsylvania State Rep. Floyd flatly tells teen girls he will block bill protecting women's sports. You know, after the I want to get into the specifics of this bill. But just to preface this for a second, Ashley, after the 2024 election, I think a lot of us who voted for Trump and who were supportive of the agenda, conservatives or the right, broadly speaking, we thought, ok, they're gonna have to step back, meaning the Democrats. I don't mean like crazy left wing online pundits or something. They're like, I'm a, you know, donate to my, you know, go fund me or whatever. I mean, these people are insane. But I thought they'd have to back off of the transgender argument a little bit because it clearly is a political loser for them, but they actually haven't. I'm a little surprised. I didn't think that they would completely repudiate it, but I thought they would. No, they're still very much in on this. Tell us about this situation in Pennsylvania, which again, feels like this has got to be a political loser for them.
- [14:27]
Unknown Listener
Yeah, I think the exact same. I'm a former Division 1 athlete myself, so, you know, I can relate on this issue a lot. It's one of the things I'm passionate about covering, actually. But yeah, it's, you know, I've come between two things. It's, you know, like I said, the knee jerk reaction to do exactly the opposite of what Trump's saying or, you know, follow the money in a lot of ways, like why is this continuing? And Trump calls it himself an 8020 issue. And I think a lot of Americans agree with that. When I was on the campaign trail, I was able to talk to a lot of Americans in different states areas and at rallies for President Trump. And you know, that was one of their main concerns going into the presidential election and to see it continue now from Democrats as not a winning issue, but they still back it. I talked to for that article, Senator Judy Ward in Pennsylvania. She's a state senator and she was the one that actually confronted the senator in Pennsylvania that went up to the teen girls and said those remarks. And you know, the way she talked about it, you know, it was just a news conference and it was a group of teenage girls that were just sitting there listening and, and it's kind of unbelievable that this grown man that has a daughter goes up to these girls and confronts them about this. But it's one of the just many stories. I mean, even this past weekend, I did another story covering. Rachel Levine was speaking at Smith College up in Massachusetts.
- [15:39]
Joe Getty
I went to Amherst. I know a lot about Smith. It's a funky place. Have you ever been there? It is, wow. Yes, but I mean a lot of women who present as men is what more than you'll find on any other college campus. I think in all of America. America, Smith is like the place for that.
- [15:58]
Unknown Listener
Well, what's so interesting about that story is a lot of these women groups were actually feminist groups that I would call the left leaning groups that I was able to speak to that showed up to protest this. So this is not just the right that's complaining on this issue. People have common sense and are showing up from even on the left to complain about these things. And you know, as you know, Smithson, all women's college, you have a transgender HHS secretary.
- [16:18]
Joe Getty
Do you know, do you know that Smith College, many, many years ago. Again, I know too much, I know too much about this because of the Amherst and Smith. You can take classes at either school without. You can just like as an Amherst student, you can register for any classes you want at Smith and vice versa. There's actually a bunch of colleges, they call it the Five College Consortium. Anyway, too much detail. Point being there's a lot of crossover and like some classes you can only take at Smith for your major. Right. So you'd have, so I'd have to go over there and they got rid of gender in the student constitution. So it's an all women's college that explicitly and it's a student constitution. I'm not even sure what the bylaws of the, of the, of the college are now, but they got rid of any gendered language. So it's, it's only for women. But they cannot reference gender. Think about that.
- [17:05]
Unknown Listener
It's incredible. I mean, you know, I played beach volleyball at the University of South Carolina and you know, there's like height requirements when it comes to beach volleyball, but this just doesn't trans over transition from just sports. You know, many people are speaking out about this. This is just a meaning to women overall in my opinion. And you know, it's, those are one of the, some of the topics I'm very passionate about covering at the Caller the issue.
- [17:26]
Joe Getty
Can you tell everybody? Because I'm sure they're going to be seeing you. And have you, have you done FOX yet by the way? Have you been on FOX already? Have you made your debut?
- [17:34]
Unknown Listener
No, and this is my podcast debut. So this is a big one. It is, yes.
- [17:39]
Joe Getty
Well, well, congratulations. Congratulations. A lot of people listening, so that's kind of cool. You have a lot more, it's more audio, video because you know, radio show and podcast. So. But we do do some People will see there. So yeah, we've got to get to get you in the mix. I'm sure we'll see you on Fox or Newsmax or all of the above. But you're going to be in D.C. for the caller, which always has sort of a, a place in my heart. I remember when Tucker was running that was running that outfit. I remember the early days when it was I was working at the Blaze, which was Glenn's site when they founded when, when Tucker founded the Caller. So it was kind of those two sites side by side and we always had a pretty warm relationship between the two newsrooms. What are you going to be doing when you get up to dc? Like what's going to be your beat?
- [18:22]
Unknown Listener
Yeah. So Capitol Hill is the plan right now. Just reporting on a lot of different stuff. I'm very curious. Love talking about a lot of topics but I think Capitol Hill will be the focus. But yeah, in the past covered with right side broadcasting network at many of the Trump rallies and very happy that the Caller took me on. I think we're a very scrappy team. It's a great place to be.
- [18:41]
Joe Getty
No, it's a great and it's a great place to start your career. So tell all, tell anybody over there. I'm so old now, I don't know if any of them will remember me. But tell anybody over the Caller that would that I send regards and Ashley Brassfield, great to have you on. We'll see you. See you soon.

I've said it before and it warrants saying again. Preborn accomplishes in a year what so many other organizations would hope to accomplish in a lifetime. Last year alone, Preborn made it possible for tens of thousands of babies to be brought into this world. And they start this whole process by welcoming pregnant mothers who are considering abortion and presenting them with a better idea giving life to the tiny baby in their womb. Over the past two decades, 350,000 babies have been saved in this way by preborn's efforts. And it all starts with that ultrasound process. When preborn brings that mother to be in, introduces her to the tiny life growing inside of her womb, and then says there will be support, love and all kinds of help if the mom chooses life for that baby. They accomplish this with a very straightforward proposition. It's a $28 expense per ultrasound. $28 expense per ultrasound is all that we're talking about for each one of these possibly life saving interventions with a pregnant woman. Preborn operates communities in communities across our nation where abortion rates are the highest. The resources and services they offer, including that ultrasound to meet the unborn baby. Really give that mom another option, a better one of life. To donate securely dial pound250 and say the keyword baby. That's 250 say baby or visit preborn.comb that's preborn.com b u c k Sponsored.
