SANG IN THE CHOIR AT OAKLAND

00:11.487 --> 00:13.611
23RD AVENUE CHURCH OF GOD.

00:13.622 --> 00:16.330

McCULLEN IS THE LEADER

00:32.698 --> 00:35.296

00:36.591 --> 00:37.633
VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS

00:37.644 --> 00:38.751
VIRTUAL ADDRESS TO

00:38.762 --> 00:40.506
BLACK CHURCHES ACROSS THE

FOX NEWS PROFESSOR.

01:00.967 --> 01:03.210
BOTH PARTIES APPEARED IN

01:03.221 --> 01:04.204
CHURCHES CAMPAIGN SEASONS,

01:04.238 --> 01:06.186
THAT’S HAPPENED.

01:06.187 --> 01:08.587
WHAT HAPPENED HERE WITH

01:08.598 --> 01:11.213
KAMALA HARRIS THAT MIGHT RUN

01:11.224 --> 01:14.107
AFOUL OF THE LAW?

01:14.141 --> 01:19.247
>> THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAS

01:19.258 --> 01:22.715
TO ENFORCE TAX LAWS INCLUDING

01:22.748 --> 01:23.762
RULES GOVERNING ORGANIZATIONS,

01:23.773 --> 01:25.576
SUCH AS CHURCHES.
PART OF THOSE REGULATIONS

01:25.587 --> 01:27.712
PART OF THOSE REGULATIONS

01:27.723 --> 01:31.983
INCLUDE WHAT’S CALLED JOHNSON

01:31.994 --> 01:36.233
WHICH -- IN ORDER TO BE

01:36.244 --> 01:36.687
TAX-EXEMPT.

01:36.688 --> 01:37.893
THE CHURCHES PLAY THIS VIDEO,

01:37.904 --> 01:41.717
AND THEY WOULD BE IN VIOLATION

01:41.751 --> 01:43.334
OF FEDERAL LAW.

01:43.345 --> 01:45.958
IF THE WHITE HOUSE PARTICIPATED

01:45.969 --> 01:47.849
IN THIS PLAN, TO HAVE DIRECT

01:47.883 --> 01:50.047
POLITICKING, THEY WOULD HAVE

01:50.058 --> 01:51.327
ASSISTED IN THE VIOLATION.

01:51.361 --> 01:54.751
THAT PUTS THEM IN A RATHER

01:54.752 --> 01:55.374
AWKWARD POSITION.

01:55.385 --> 01:58.955
THEIR ADMINISTRATION HAS TO

01:58.966 --> 02:00.467
ENFORCE THIS VERY RULE.

02:00.478 --> 02:02.620
>> Laura: MERRICK GARLAND IS

02:02.654 --> 02:04.581
FOCUSING ON THE JANUARY 6TH

02:04.592 --> 02:05.968
GRANDMA AND GRANDPA’S COMMODE TO

02:06.002 --> 02:09.567
MAKE SURE THEY STAY IN WHATEVER

02:09.578 --> 02:13.673
TYPE OF CONFINEMENT THEY ARE IN.

02:13.684 --> 02:16.124
THEY GAVE YOU IN THE EXPLICIT

02:16.125 --> 02:17.250
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW CHURCHGOERS

02:17.284 --> 02:18.190
COULD ACTUALLY VOTE.

02:18.201 --> 02:19.424
WATCH THIS.

02:19.435 --> 02:21.614
>> EARLY VOTING HAS ONLY

02:21.625 --> 02:21.843
STARTED.

02:21.878 --> 02:25.107

IF YOU CANNOT VOTE TODAY, PLEASE

02:30.937 --> 02:35.193
MAKE A PLAN TO GO VOTE.

02:35.194 --> 02:38.049
GO TO IWillVote.com.

02:38.083 --> 02:40.304
>> Laura: PROFESSOR, THIS IS

02:40.315 --> 02:43.653
CALLED PUSHING FOLKS TO A

02:43.664 --> 02:44.677
SPECIFIC WEBSITE?

02:44.688 --> 02:46.645
THAT BRINGS MORE PROBLEMS TO

02:46.656 --> 02:49.101
THEM IF WE HAD A JUSTICE

02:49.112 --> 02:51.734
DEPARTMENT OR THE IRS ARM THAT

02:51.745 --> 02:54.090
WAS GOING TO DO SOMETHING.

02:54.101 --> 02:55.564
>> IT’S AN EXTRAORDINARY VIDEO

02:55.575 --> 02:57.182
BECAUSE THE WHITE HOUSE CAN

02:57.215 --> 02:58.382
ARGUE THAT WE JUST MADE THE

02:58.383 --> 02:59.183
VIDEO.

02:59.194 --> 03:01.136
THE VIOLATORS ARE THE

03:01.170 --> 03:02.546
CHURCHGOERS WHO DECIDED TO PLAY

03:02.547 --> 03:02.973
THEM.

03:02.974 --> 03:06.134
BUT THAT DOESN’T WORK WHEN THE

03:06.136 --> 03:09.512
VIDEO IS REFERENCING CHURCHES

03:09.523 --> 03:11.388
AND THEIR SERVICES.

03:11.399 --> 03:13.082
THOSE DIRECTLY FROM CHURCH TO

03:13.093 --> 03:13.416
VOTE.

03:13.427 --> 03:16.608
THE QUESTION HERE, DID THE

03:16.609 --> 03:19.150
WHITE HOUSE KNOWINGLY CREATE A

03:19.161 --> 03:22.429
VIDEO TO VIOLATE FEDERAL LAW?

03:22.440 --> 03:26.843
CLEARLY, THEY ARE NOT THE ONES

03:26.876 --> 03:29.096
WHO HAVE A TAX-EXEMPT STATUS.

03:29.107 --> 03:31.652
BUT THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM

03:31.663 --> 03:32.894
IF YOU’RE ENCOURAGING THESE

03:32.928 --> 03:33.202
VIOLATIONS.

03:33.213 --> 03:35.072
WHAT’S INTERESTING IS THAT

03:35.083 --> 03:36.297
PRESIDENT TRUMP REALLY DID NOT

03:36.308 --> 03:37.118
LIKE THE JOHNSON AMENDMENT AND

03:37.152 --> 03:38.524
INSISTED HE WAS GOING TO GET RID

03:38.525 --> 03:39.927
OF IT.

03:39.938 --> 03:42.053
WHEN HE DID IT, THEN MANY

03:42.087 --> 03:44.722
DEMOCRATS AND LEGAL EXPERTS

03:44.733 --> 03:45.520
CRIED FOUL.

03:45.531 --> 03:47.109
THEY WERE DESTROYING THE

03:47.110 --> 03:48.339
SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.

03:48.340 --> 03:50.281
THIS IS ENCOURAGING THE

03:50.292 --> 03:51.631
VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW.

03:51.664 --> 03:54.246
AFTER THIS VIDEO PLAYS, THERE

03:54.247 --> 03:57.861
WAS NOTHING BUT CRICKETS FROM

03:57.863 --> 03:59.706
MANY OF THOSE AREAS.

03:59.717 --> 04:01.313
>> Laura: THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY

04:01.347 --> 04:03.212
VERY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT IS

04:03.213 --> 04:04.536
HAPPENING IN SOME OF THESE

04:04.547 --> 04:05.089
POLLS.

04:05.122 --> 04:06.648
I THINK THEY’RE PULLING OUT ALL
