there's actually a relationship between lies and power everyone lies every day in politics the lies are more common there are many studies on power and from them we can conclude that the more powerful someone is the easier it is to lie and the more they feel right about it. the. deception helps to disguise that strategy has a long tradition politics were already being conducted in secret during the renaissance. the less people knew about what happened in the chambers of power the better. political philosopher. openly condemned lying as immoral. yet indirectly he called on those in power to do it. doesn't advise the prince to lie because the lie it cannot lead to anything positive. song in his political tract the prince machiavelli tries to advise the prince on how best to maintain his power. or next to none will know he advised him to hide part of the truth because for him the secret is required for the success of a political act for me to do so ok then just. simply saying nothing is an alternative to lying with unpredictable consequences as history shows. europe's climate worsened in t

the problem is the first amendment protects lies. it protects lies as well as truth.otion is that the first amendment is not for the speech that we love but the speech that we hate. we hate lies. so to me you have to abut it in real time. one of the problems in the media since 2016 going back to the debates is people did not rebut false statements as they were being made all the time. that needs to happen all the time. but in the senate trial, which is not like a trial anywhere else, the senators are not supposed to speak and the chief justice, again, is meant to be a kind of a referee here. it's not like he's conducting a supreme court. this is a court that is a kind of artificial creation of the constitution that can do whatever it wants. so i would love the chief justice to step in and say that's a falsehood. >> and i think there's an interesting discussion here, because we have all come to accept, sadly, that sometimes in the cesspool that social media can become. i thought when it was first create, no one will ever be able to lie again. but it feels different to

this defend the lies. he's lied for three straight years and we have evidence of all is lying.t up a report that we know he knew was lies. >> yeah. of course i think it's exactly why the press is literally more unpopular than lawyers in congress combined. it's so easy to point out the lies, as you been doing, of adam schiff and jerrold nadler and all these conspiracy theories they float and they are totally politically motivated to attack the president. it's really hard to do all that without a complicit media, without an unquestioning complicit media. that's what they have on their side. the problem is, as we sort of, is their story begins to fall apart, it almost doesn't matter what the press coverage is of president's lawyers on the senate floor. the truth is kind of revealed, and i think most americans realize who's lying and who's not. >> sean: breathtaking lies, breathtaking hypocrisy great of these down. down is up. pink is purple and purple is pink. thank you. when we come back, we have breaking news about the deadly coronavirus. the u.s. government has just issued a do

he lied about the whistle-blower. he even lied about the whistle-blower. take a look. >> i want you to do me a favor, though. i want you to do an investigation of mitt romney. >> do any of us have any questin that barack obama would be impeached for that kind of misconduct? that's a parallel here. >> sean: and he lied in his report to the american people. now, we know, because of the inspector general report, that he lied and congressman devin nunes told the truth. the bulk of the information was the dirty unverifiable dossier that hillary paid for. the only american we know on tape, thinking he's talking to a russian, colluding to get dirt on donald trump to use an election. would you have? compromising materials. really? what are they? did vladimir see them? can we have them? that would be adam schiff. now, the president didn't say, by the way, in the transcript, even though, yeah, schiff had to make that up too appeared he didn't say, do me a favor. he said, do us a favor. he said, in relation to the united states, and of course, we have the ukrainian c

i have had a belly full of lies. >> you said it, lou. schiff's lies have no bounds.e started with the russia hoax, then he went to the ukraine sham. their impeachment is in shambles. the american people are smarter than that. this all about partisan politics. and you are right. nobody is watching. i was on a plane the other day, nobody was watching. not a single person. they note outcome. the president d they know the outcome. this president is not going to be impeached and he will get reelected. lou: our ratings are very high for both the fox news channel and fox business. i understand the fascination with the process. but to watch continuously what is just lie after lie, and the national left' wing media continues to give credence to all of this nonsense. and they puff up with importance when they know it's a fiction, a tragic fiction and an extension from the party of haten -- hate and an attempt to overthrow him. let's listen to the president talk about jerrold nadler. president trump: jerrold nadler. i have known him a long time. he's a sleaze bag. pat cipollone

he lied then, he went to the grand jury and lied under oath. that's article two and three. 1, 2, and three. in article four, he lied again to congress. he told us the same things. he said he didn't engage in the sexual relations. he said he was never alone with her. he repeated the same lies to this congress. that's a grave insult to the constitutional system of government. the president of the united states did commit impeachable offenses. perjury rises to the same level as bribery. treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors. that's what the constitution says. i submit he should be impeached. the evidence is clear. there's no question he subverted our system of government. he should be impeached. thank you. >> mr. speaker, i recognize for one minute the distinguished gentleman from georgia, the minority deputy, mr. john lewis. >> the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> mr. speaker, today is a very sad day for this house. this morning when i got up, i wanted to cry, but the tears would not come. before we cast this one floo

we all know the president lies all the time. he lies about big things, he lies about small things. but among the most consequential lies he has told from the beginning, one that he told again today is about health care. the lie is i am protecting your guaranteed access to health care if you have preexisting conditions. quote, i was the person who saved preexisting conditions in your health care. that was donald trump just today. that is an absolute lie. and millions of people's of lives are at risk. people right now are battling cancer or out of a job. these are very high stakes. and what trump is out there saying is just the opposite the truth because the facts are this. the trump administration's department of justice argued in federal court in an attempt to try to strike down the entirety of the affordable care act. the trump administration right now is on the record wanting to get rid of the aca, the whole thing, root and branch, all 2200 pages, everything. and that includes young people staying on their parents' insurance under the age of 26. stopping health insurance companie

those claims were lies. the war in iraq led to the deaths of some 4500 brave american troops and the wounding physical and emotional of tens of thousands of others. it led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of iraqis and the displacement of over 5 million people and the increased destabilization of an already unstable region. the war in iraq cost us trillions of dollars, money that could have been spent to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, provide quality education for our kids, provide healthcare, for the uninsured and underinsured. and after all of that, after all of the pain and suffering and deaths and the expenditure of trillions of dollars, the iraqi parliament voted earlier this week to boot u.s. forces out of their country. and now we have a president who abandoned a nuclear agreement we signed with our allies has turned to a policy of escalation and appears to be walking us toward another disastrous war in the middle east. and let's be clear, another war in the middle east could cost once ag

there are a lot of lies in that ad. if you want to support and take the talking points of the democrats, you can go ahead and join their ranks. we have such tremendous support from republican voters and americans and even disaffected democrats. what is amazing about this president is the data we are st eightfrom the la rallies since this overreach by the democrats. the average number of registered democrats coming to the president's rally is 24.8%. we have a candidate who is not misrepresenting members of the republican party but all americans. ofhas a strong message record and accomplishment, the booming economy. think about the record history making things that have happened. we are not even a month into 2020. soleimani, qasem first president to attend the march for life, signed a historic trade deal. we are not even a month into the year yet. we have a history breaking president. that is why we are getting americans of all political persuasions onto our side. it is a winning message. americans are winning under this

you lied about me.back to trump over and over. they're nitpicking votes. >> talk about 2018, 2018, 2019, 2020. do you want to talk about iraq or iran right now? do you want to talk about a guy who is willing to sell out a democratic ally that's been invaded. do you want to talk about a rock in 2003 or talk about a guy whose fbi director, cia director, director of national intelligence, director of homeland security all said the single greatest threat are the russians trying to influence our democracy, and we have a president now who says i believe the ex-kgb agent. >> this is an administration that hands the democrats every day another set of attacks, that is robustly corrupt, led by a guy mentally unstable, filled with weird criminals and adjacent people, and the democrats keep arguing obamacare versus medicare for all. shut up about policy. get on the attack. you've got to be there. that's the only way this will be waged. donald trump doesn't care about policy. they're going to go after the democratic

we have 16,241 lies. put that into perspective, that's over 7,000 more lies than there are visible stars in the night sky. [ laughter ] if those lies -- [ applause ] -- were fluffy buttermilk pancakes one inch thick, they would stack up higher than the empire state building. if donald trump's lies were cruise ship passengers, they would fill six "titanic"s and a whole bunch of dinghies too. if those 16,000 lies were big macs you'd have enough two all beef patties with special sauce lettuce cheese to bury the president in a pile 10 feet high in the east room of the white house. so there you have it. 16,000 lies and a side order of fries from our president. and tomorrow is day one of his impeachment trial. [ applause ] he will be very well prepared. he has an all-star defense team in place. one of his lawyers is alan dershowitz, who represented such luminaries as claus von bulow, harvey weinstein, jeffrey epstein, and o.j. simpson. so he definitely has a type. dershowitz has been making the rounds on cable
