Clay Travis buck 3 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: We've got a lot to discuss with all of you 5 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: as we roll you into the weekend, and we hope 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: that we will make your start to the weekend better 7 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: than it otherwise would have been. You can interact with 8 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: the show as always eight hundred and two two to eight, 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,479 Speaker 1: eight to two phone lines will be open throughout the 10 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: course of the program. Get closer and closer to Iowa voting, 11 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: What if anything is continuing to break there? We will 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: discuss a little bit over a month until the first 13 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: votes of the twenty twenty four presidential election begin. But 14 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: big breaking news yesterday evening Hunter Biden charged additionally with 15 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 1: nine criminal affair six misdemeanors, three felonies. He faces seventeen 16 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: years in prison in California. He has been charged with 17 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: failing to pay at least one point four million dollars 18 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: in taxes in a very detailed fifty six page indictment 19 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: that was released yesterday evening. Lots to break down associated 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: with this what I would say right off the top, 21 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: Buck is this is exactly what I hoped would happen 22 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: when Judge Noriyeika, who remains to me a hero here 23 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: in Delaware, refused to sign off on the sweetheart deal 24 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: that would have put all of this behind Hunter Biden 25 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: with virtually no consequences. He now faces felonies on both 26 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: sides of the country, both in I believe Delaware and 27 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: in California. It's also as a testament to the bravery 28 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: of the irs whistleblowers who came forward to talk about 29 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: the preferential treatment that was being received by Hunter Biden. 30 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: And also this is a consequence of having a Republican 31 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: control of the House of Representatives, which would not have 32 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: otherwise I don't believe led to any charges. Now, I 33 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: want to get your reaction, Buck. Also, the question that 34 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: is lingering out there is how does this impact, if 35 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: at all, Joe Biden's decision to run in twenty twenty 36 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: four and or the Democrat Party's decision to keep him 37 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: in a position of prominence as the nominee and incumbent 38 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 1: president running for re election. But I will say this 39 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: is one that I think I got right in the 40 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: long run, it took some time. I still think Buck 41 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: that what I said from the get go, if you 42 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: go back a couple of years on, this was this 43 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: is the cover that allows the Department of Justice under 44 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: Merrick Garland to claim that they don't care about whether 45 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: you're the former president or the son of the president. 46 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: They will go after you. Now they tried to avoid 47 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: going after him. They got caught red handed. And now 48 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: these are the consequences. These are the felonies that have 49 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: been brought. There still potentially could be more. But this 50 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: is the one I've been waiting for because the irs 51 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: case was very straightforward. 52 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: So are you ready for a series of scorching hot 53 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 2: takes on this? 54 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: Are you ready for this farm this Friday? Yes? 55 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: Yes, all right, everybody strap in. This will change nothing. 56 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden is not going to spend a single day 57 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: in prison. Joe Biden is still going to be the 58 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: Democrat nominee. Joe Biden will pardon Hunter in December of 59 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: next year, in almost exactly twelve months to the day. 60 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: I think you're going to see a Hunter Biden series 61 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: of pardons the either. I think at that point, because 62 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: the election will be over. The outgoing Joe Biden either 63 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: losing to the Republican or stepping down after winning reelection, 64 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: because you won't care. 65 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: At that point, we'll. 66 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,279 Speaker 2: Say we need to take the heat out of our politics, 67 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 2: bring the temperature down. And my son is not going 68 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: to prison. Maybe he'll commute it instead of pardoning him. 69 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: But in the meantime, he'll delay the trials as long 70 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: as he possibly can. Very unlikely that he'll even I 71 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: would think, get to a sentencing phase before although maybe 72 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 2: you know, correct me if I'm wrong, he'll get to 73 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 2: a sensing phase before the election actually happens. And here's 74 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 2: what I think is, I mean, everything you said about 75 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: how you laid it out the Judge Norrieca, there's a 76 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 2: possibility here that Judge Norriaca may have ended up preventing 77 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: the Democrat nominee from becoming the president. Like I'm not 78 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: saying that will happen, but this could become messier for. 79 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: Them down the line than was ant and her bravery, 80 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: I think is being completely underdiscussed in media. She did 81 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: exactly what I I hoped she would do. She did 82 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: what I hope an independent judiciary would do. 83 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: I mean, but Clay, it's the other side of this is. 84 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: The plan wasn't charge Hunter then charged Trump to look 85 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: even handed. The plan was to make the whole thing 86 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: go away entirely, to make Hunter Biden's serial felony committing 87 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: just evaporate millions of dollars in tax fraud, wirefraud, paying prostitutes, 88 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: illegal gun possession, illegal drugs possession. I mean, this guy 89 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 2: was a walking, talking felony for years, yeah, years, And 90 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 2: this is this is not something that anybody disputes. 91 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: Or there's any real doubt about. 92 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 2: I know, he's innocent until proven guilty, but it's not 93 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: like anyone's denying this stuff really happened. 94 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: And Clay they own they were this close the plan 95 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: that plea deal. You know it as well as I do. 96 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: It would have been all over. Hunter Biden would be fine, 97 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: he would skate totally free. They were this close. But 98 00:05:55,160 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: it was so grotesquely unjust that the judge, and I 99 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: agree she deserves a lot of credit, was like, this is, guys, 100 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: this is appalling, Like you can't you can't actually do this. 101 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: You can't sneak in additional immunity for things that aren't 102 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: even covered in the indictment in an appendage paper. 103 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: That the whole thing. You know that that was about 104 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: a diversion program. The whole thing was so slimy and 105 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 2: so sleazy, But that was the plan, and the prosecutors 106 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 2: were in on it. That's the part everyone. It's not 107 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: just like Hunter's legal team dreamed this up. Federal prosecutors 108 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: tried to let Hunter get away with all of it. 109 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: And then the other thing that I think is really 110 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: important is. 111 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: That none of the charges that tie to Joe Biden 112 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: are touched in any of this. This creates that wall 113 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: of separation where Hunter wasn't paying his taxes and the 114 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: prostitutes and wrote off this is true, everybody, ten thousand 115 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 2: dollars of sex club membership fees as a business expense. 116 00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: I mean maybe Hunter has an only fans, but I 117 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: don't know if that's a business expense. And he did 118 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: all these things, but Clay, everything that has to do 119 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 2: with Foreign Agent Registration Act, anything that would have to 120 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 2: do with federal corruption charges, any of that, they ran 121 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: out the statute of limitations. 122 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,559 Speaker 1: None of it touches him. Therefore they've protected Biden Joe 123 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: Biden in this process. What do you think so so far? 124 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: I think this is a mess in a big way 125 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden, because even everybody out there who has 126 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: been claiming, oh, this is all some sort of right 127 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: wing fever dream associated with what Hunter Biden did, even 128 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: those people are having to cover a really detailed, fifty 129 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: six page indictment. And I do think it's worth circling 130 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: back to what you said on particular, Judge Norrieka. Remember 131 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: they were going to let Hunter Biden off with two 132 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: misdemeanors and no punishment for everything that he did, and 133 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: now he is facing multiple felony counts on both sides 134 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: of the country and years in prison. Now I agree 135 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: with you that Joe Biden is not going to let 136 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: Hunter go to prison. I would suspect that in December 137 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: something like that. After the election happens late November or December, 138 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: whether he. 139 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: Wins or losing, I don't hold that against Joe Biden. Yeah, 140 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: I would not let it. If I were president, my 141 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: sons aren't going to prison or god would, I would aggressively. 142 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: What he should have to do is he should have 143 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 2: to aggressively answer questions about this, because if we had 144 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: an honest White House Press Corps buck, they would drill 145 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: Joe Biden now on Are you going to pardon your son? 146 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 2: He probably would say no, And then can you promise 147 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: to the American public that you will never pardon your son? 148 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: And I understand he. 149 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 2: Would just not Wait, Kelly, He's gonna say my son 150 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 2: is innocent until proven guilty. He deserves process. I'm the 151 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 2: chief executive. It is not on me to weigh in 152 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 2: at this point. Charges have been brought. Let's let the 153 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: system play out. I will not say anything. We can 154 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: see how they're gonna play it, right. 155 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the way he's not I but you 156 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: can easily question him again if we had an honest media, 157 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: what iweek is important, which we don't. But when you 158 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: get one of these people get to sit down, they 159 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: should legitimately grill him. I mean, you heard me grill 160 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: Mike Pence on whether he would pardon Trump in the 161 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: event Trump was convicted. I don't think that's a tough hypothetical. Now, 162 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: presidents answer hypotheticals all the time. In the event your 163 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: son is convicted of felony or misdemeanor counts that could 164 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: send him to federal prison, can you right now say 165 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: to the American public that you one percent will not 166 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: ever pardon him. 167 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: I'm just he's gonna say that there's an active the 168 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 2: justice system has to play out, there's and I'm gonna 169 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: it's not a crazy thing to say, because that's actually 170 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: the way that presidents should be about criminal trials. A 171 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: president of the United States should not be saying I 172 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: think this person's guilty or I think this person's innocent. 173 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 2: That's not their job. That's not you know, but we saw, 174 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 2: you know, Obama weighed in back on the Trayvon Martin case. 175 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: If you remember, remember with the George Zimmerman. You know, 176 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: he was weighing on that as it was going on. Yeah, 177 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: that's a bad precedent. I agree, But I do think 178 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: when your family is facing federal prison, it isn't it 179 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: is incumbent upon the media to be asking whether he 180 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: would pardon Now here's the question that that that comes to, like, 181 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: because you said they're trying to wall him off. I 182 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: do think this gives more impetus to the House of 183 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: House of Representatives in their impeachment inquiry to officially undertake it. 184 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: And I do think this undercuts some of the Trump 185 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: standing trial element because this whole idea that Trump is 186 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: uniquely evil and the worst person ever. Now the president's 187 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: son is potentially going to stand trial. I think they'll 188 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: try to push it. Also, we didn't talk about this, 189 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: but Trump's legal team has has filed an appeal arguing 190 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: that this DC case needs to be considered to be 191 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: within his presidential powers. It's now before the DC appeals Court. 192 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: I think there's a possibility that this DC trial really 193 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: gets bumped back significantly. We'll see chuck Kin clearly wants 194 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: to move it through. But this is just part and 195 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: parcel of I think what's going to create the wildest 196 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, the wildest year, even within the COVID context, 197 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four is going to have so many different 198 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: moving parts, distractions, insanities, and that's the ones we already 199 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: know about without thinking about what other chaos may develop. 200 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 2: The twenty twenty four election motto, unofficially but clearly will 201 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 2: be twenty twenty four election, win or go to prison. 202 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 2: That's kind of the that's the feel, that's the vibe. 203 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 2: As a gen Z would say, that's what's going on here. 204 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: And I think that this is unfortunately precedent setting in 205 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 2: a lot of ways that are really troubling but I 206 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 2: think that Clay with Hunter Biden, none of this is. 207 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: This has been known for years. 208 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: The media has been covering this up as long as 209 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 2: they can, and it starts to feel a little bit like, 210 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 2: look what they've done with so many things that are 211 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: COVID related. Right, Yeah, eventually they have to admit that 212 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: all the lies that they told were horrible and that 213 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: it was all a big cover up. But if they 214 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: can extend it out long enough, there are no consequences. 215 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if this, you know, does this move 216 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: the needle in a meaningful way that the president's son 217 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 2: didn't pay taxes and obviously has like a sex and 218 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 2: you know, cocaine addiction problem or whatever. I don't know 219 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: that this. I don't know this moves the needle at all. 220 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 2: I just feel like people have known this who pay attention, 221 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 2: and people who don't pay attention don't care. 222 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: I will say, I think we can keep talking about this, 223 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: and there are some interesting calls, probably from people out 224 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: there that have ainions. But I will say this, think 225 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: about how reckless Hunter Biden had to be to get 226 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: in trouble for this. He didn't just not pay his taxes, 227 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: He didn't pay his taxes. He turned a full laptop 228 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: demonstrating hundreds of felonious behaviors into a laptop repairman. He 229 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: documented all of his failures to pay taxes and all 230 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: of his expenses in an unbelievably detailed fashion, especially for 231 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: someone who was supposedly addicted to drugs and unable to 232 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: make logical decisions. And he still almost got away with 233 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: all of this. I mean, this guy is one of 234 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: the biggest wrecks in certainly presidential child history, the biggest probably, 235 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: and yet he was almost able to get away with 236 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: all of this, even as reckless as his behavior he was. 237 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: He was one day, one judge, one lucky break from 238 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 2: totally clean slate. Nothing happening to him would have been 239 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 2: done side, sealed and delivered over. 240 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: He was this close. 241 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: I think that's the part of this that's the hardest 242 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: for him, quite honestly, is that he knows that he 243 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: almost got away scott free with the whole thing. But 244 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 2: they got a little sloppy, a little sloppy. But I 245 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: would think Bock speaks well to our system. I think 246 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: this shows how corrupt the system actually is. 247 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: Well, we give you, we got someone we can we 248 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: can really talk a lot about this, So let's let's 249 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: keep rolling on on hunter and more. But what you 250 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: got for. 251 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 2: Us, all right, fantastic. We've got a lot to talk 252 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 2: about coming up here. Eight hundred two A two two 253 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 2: eight A two. If you're looking for another way to 254 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: train with your firearm other than going to the range, 255 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 2: let me tell you about the Mantis X. I'm going 256 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 2: to range this weekend, be there with my brothers. I'm 257 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 2: gonna have my my aar and have my staccato. I'm 258 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: gonna have some pretty fun stuff out there. We're gonna 259 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: be doing some two guns drills, shoot and steel, all 260 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 2: kinds of stuff. But guess what I've been doing last 261 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: couple of days, in particular, using my MANTISX system, because 262 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 2: when I get out there, I don't want to be, 263 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: you know, jumping the trigger pull. I don't want to 264 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 2: be struggling to find the front site. I want to 265 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: make sure that I'm up to speed so I can 266 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: enjoy myself at the range and improve. It's all about improving. 267 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: I'm not a great shot. I'm just a guy who's 268 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: trying to get better. But I do get better with 269 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 2: the MANTISX system. I have steady progress. Now the mantis 270 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: X attaches to my fire I'm like a weapon light. 271 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 2: Once it's locked on, I connect it to my phone 272 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: and the mantis x app via Bluetooth. And once you 273 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 2: get this thing going, it's kind of like a video 274 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 2: game that makes you better at actual shooting. It's phenomenal. 275 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 2: It gives you drills and courses and real data, real 276 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: time feedback so that you can actually improve your shooting. 277 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 2: Ninety four percent of people who use the mantisx system 278 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: improved within about a half an hour, and then it 279 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: just keeps getting better.

Tune in every day 283 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: to the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. Wis has 284 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: done this huge one eighty and is prosecuting him on 285 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: all these things. And Hunter's attorney says, Oh, this is 286 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: just because he's a Biden so unraveled that, yeah, it's 287 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: a disgrace. 288 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 3: He was shamed into doing this. And I almost fell 289 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 3: out of my chair here laughing listening to Abby Lowell, 290 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 3: because if this defendant's name was in Biden. 291 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: Then four years ago, he would. 292 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: Have been convicted on a bunch of felony counts and 293 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: the case would have been handled like anybody else who 294 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 3: was involved in serious firearms and tax problem, which is 295 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 3: to say, he would have been expeditiously prosecuted. 296 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: And that's our friend Anny McCarthy making a couple of 297 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: key points on this whole Hunter Biden business. Clay the 298 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: I think the dumbest talking point, and that was from 299 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 2: his lawyer. But you know, lawyer's got a lawyer's got 300 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: a lawyer, got a make those billible hours count for 301 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 2: something no offense. But you know, they got to defend 302 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: who they got to defend. But the talking boy you'll 303 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 2: see in the media is people saying that he's only 304 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,239 Speaker 2: being prosecuted because he's a Biden. This is the This 305 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 2: is the polar opposite of reality. This is not just wrong, 306 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: it's as wrong as one can be. 307 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: How many people even ever owe a million dollars in 308 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: back taxes to the irs? I mean, I mean ever, right, 309 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: you have to make so much money to owe over 310 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: a million dollars? I mean, what do you think that 311 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: number is? Five thousand? I mean it is the whole country. 312 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: It was evasion. I mean he's getting paid specifically to 313 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: LLC's in a way that he's trying to make sure 314 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 2: that they can't tie it to him. It's tax evasion. 315 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: Actually it's not just failure to file. 316 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: And and also the amount of cash that he was 317 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: withdrawing is really kind of unbelievable. I mean, in that indictment, 318 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: he was spending like an average of two thousand dollars 319 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: a day in cash. Do you know how hard that 320 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: is to do? 321 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 2: I spend I take three hundred dollars out of an ATM. 322 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 2: I feel like the monopoly man. 323 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: I know most people can't even get out that much 324 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: money when companies come for the holidays.

We're gonna 342 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: take some of your calls here. In a moment, I 343 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: wanted to mention there are several different allegations in the 344 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden fifty six page indictment that jumped out to me, 345 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: and in particular Buck, what I thought was maybe the 346 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: most intriguing was the amount of cash that Hunter Biden 347 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: was withdrawing and spending on a day to day basis 348 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: is really kind of unprecedented. I mean, he spent over 349 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: two thousand dollars a day in cash, and I don't 350 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: even know how in some ways he even got some 351 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: of this cash withdrawn in the way that he was, 352 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: and there's a couple of different phrases in there, but again, 353 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,479 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of dollars in cash, and a lot 354 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: of that went to hookers, and a lot of that 355 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: went to drugs, obviously. But I just want you guys 356 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:09,880 Speaker 1: to think about this. I can't withdraw right now on 357 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: my checking accounts. I don't believe more than seven hundred 358 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: dollars in a day. And I know because several times 359 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: in Vegas full disclosure, I've been on the casino floor 360 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: and I have gotten seven hundred dollars and I may 361 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: have lost that seven hundred dollars and thought, well, at 362 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: the blackjack table, I want to go back and get 363 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: seven hundred more dollars, and I can't even get the 364 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: money out. And in fact, the most recent time I 365 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: was in Vegas, I was with my wife for my 366 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: buddy Todd Furman's wedding, and we're at the Vegas casino 367 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 1: right after his wedding, and I lose seven hundred dollars 368 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: pretty quick, and then I had to get a money advance, 369 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: cash advanced through my credit card or whatever. I think 370 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: I took out like two grand I probably have signed away, 371 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: God knows how much information they now have at me 372 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: at some random casino. And my wife is like, Okay, 373 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: this is all you're going to take out the rest 374 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: of day. I'm like yes. Ten minutes later she comes 375 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: over to this free story. Ten minutes later she comes over. 376 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: I had had a really good round of cards. All 377 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: the odds were in my favor. The dealer, I think, 378 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: was showing a five or six, and I had been 379 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: able to I'd gotten a bunch of seven and fours 380 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: and splits and everything else. And I had two grand 381 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: on the table, and I had borrowed a thousand dollars 382 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: from another guy. And my wife comes over and she's like, what, 383 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: what in the like, how does this happen? Anyway, So 384 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: my point on all this is, and by the way, 385 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: I lost the hand, which was not ideal, even though 386 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: all the odds were in my favor. But you can't 387 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: easily take out this kind of cash, and so I wonder, 388 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: you know, to the point we were talking about, buck, 389 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: the reason why you pay for things in cash is 390 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: to try to disguise the fact that you ever had 391 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: the money in the first place. And in addition to 392 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: trying to write off a sex club membership, I flagged 393 00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: this in twenty eighteen. Hunter Biden said that he could 394 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: didn't pay his child support because he didn't have the money, 395 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: and in reality he was paying hundreds of thousands of dollars. 396 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: I think the math is over seven hundred thousand dollars 397 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: here paid in hooker payments. He also tried to write 398 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: off his daughter's law school tuition I believe as a 399 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: legal expense, which you know to be fairs. Is an 400 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: interesting move. But the recklessness of this guy's behavior. I 401 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: just as I was reading the indictment, I just I 402 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: know we had seen it all in the in the laptop, 403 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: those of us who paid attention to it, but to 404 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: see it all spilled out. Remember, Hunter Biden said that sorry, 405 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biden said that Hunter Biden was the smartest man 406 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: he knew. And I just can't the recklessness. I come 407 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: back to the cocaine in the White House. I come 408 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: back to so many of these stories that have never 409 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: really been explained, and I think this has to be Hunter, 410 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: like nothing else adds up, and even the extortion schemes 411 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: based on his dad. All of this to me. Bearisma 412 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: cuts his payments buck in half two months after his 413 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: dad is out of office. It's just all so incredibly dirty, 414 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: and I hope that the House of Representatives continues their 415 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: full scale investigation because Joe is definitely connected to all 416 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: of this. So one thing that I would want to ask, 417 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, for the defenders in the media that Joe 418 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: Biden still has, I would just want to know what 419 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: were they paying him for? You know what I mean? 420 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 2: This is a question that I think is still very 421 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 2: much unanswered. We all know the answer to be clear, 422 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: but it never gets it never is sort of forced 423 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 2: on the people that are trying to defend this. Now 424 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: that we know that the full extent of Hunter Biden's 425 00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 2: social activities, I think it's fair to say what person 426 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 2: would would start paying this guy eighty grand a month 427 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: to be on the board of their company. Eighty grand 428 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: a month. I mean, that's yeah, that's good work if 429 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 2: you can get it. 430 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: You know, if someone told me that, I bet most 431 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: of the people listening to us right now make it 432 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: an entire year. And Hunter Biden was getting it every 433 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: month to sit on one board and do nothing. I mean, 434 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: it's the ultimate no show job. 435 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: He might have called into a conference call once a 436 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 2: year in between cocaine benders or whatever. I mean, he 437 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: wasn't actually doing anything. So ask the question, what was 438 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden being paid for? Why was was it CEFC 439 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 2: or whatever in the endicament of the Chinese Communist Party? 440 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: Why was a Chinese intelligence and therefore Communist Party affiliated 441 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 2: really a business frontman paying Hunter, giving Hunter millions of dollars. 442 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: We all know the reason for this. 443 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: Was to get stuff from his dad and his dad's buddies. 444 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: Yes, there is no other answer. I mean, it's not 445 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: like he's. 446 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 2: A hotshot lawyer who's got a lot of global clients 447 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 2: and he's really smart, and you know, he just happens. 448 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: To have a dad who you know, is the vice 449 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: president at the time in the United States. 450 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: He's a degenerate, okay, guy's like barely able to function 451 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 2: in the real world, and he's getting millions of dollars 452 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: for his advice. Of course, he's not getting millions of 453 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 2: dollars for his advice. These were bribes. These were bribes 454 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: paid to the Biden family with Hunter as the cutout, 455 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 2: Hunter as the bag man. 456 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: That's what was going on. And so it frustrates me 457 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: is that it's all Hunter didn't pay his taxes, Hunter 458 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: you know was at a sex club. 459 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 4: Hunter you know was making uh, the the Median cartel 460 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 4: look like a bunch of choir boys like okay, fine, 461 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 4: but Clay. 462 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 2: The bigger issue here is the Biden family was for sale. 463 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: The one point was the Iden family was for sale, 464 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 1: And I would build on that buck by saying, what 465 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,719 Speaker 1: is one of the things they try to defend Joe 466 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 1: Biden by saying, Well, Joe Biden's just a dad whose 467 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: son had struggled with addiction. And there are many families 468 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: out there whose children and grandchildren study with a struggle 469 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: with addiction. And it's really unfair to put Hunter under 470 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: this microscope. Let me say, let me point this out, 471 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 1: in addition to what you're saying, if your son or 472 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: daughter struggled with addiction, giving them millions of dollars and 473 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 1: making them the bagman for your family is not kind. 474 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: It isn't in some way an endearing family trait. The 475 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: reason why Hunter was behaving so recklessly and was able 476 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: to do so for so long was because he was 477 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: the bagman, and all of these millions of dollars in 478 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: payments were funneled through him him. Well, if you knew 479 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: that your son was a drug addict, and that he 480 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: had all sorts of personal problems, would you want to 481 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,479 Speaker 1: ensure that he gets millions of dollars, thereby fueling his 482 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: addiction to an even greater degree. I mean Biden was complicit. 483 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: In my opinion, Joe Biden was complicit in his son's 484 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: addiction because he knew all of this was going on, 485 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: and he still sent millions of dollars in payments through 486 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: his son. You think about this. One of the first 487 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: things that people would do if they have a drug 488 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: addict son who is otherwise or daughter not able to function, 489 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: is you try to restrict how much access to free 490 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: cash flow they have. Instead, Biden kept the spigot of 491 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: cash flowing, which fueled his son's destructive behavior even more. 492 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: And I think to your point, it's important for everybody 493 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: out there to also not get totally focused on the 494 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: salacious ways in which he was spending this money. Although 495 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: I would point out for most people, if you spent 496 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of the girls that you were paying, 497 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: all of those things are not very difficult sex crimes 498 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,959 Speaker 1: to investigate.

You guys all remember Moby. 558 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 2: He was sort of nineties DJ electronica. It's the music 559 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: that you would hear playing in the background when you 560 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: went to like Urban Outfitters or The Gap circa nineteen 561 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 2: ninety eight. 562 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: You know, Moby. 563 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 2: That guy has a podcast. 564 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: Uh and Hunter Biden apparently went on the podcast Who's 565 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: just indicted again. Now let me I'm just picture I've 566 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: just picked by the way Buck. As funny as this 567 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: is to you and me to think about, imagine you 568 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: are Abbe Wowell being paid seventeen hundred and fifty dollars 569 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: an hour or whatever the heck it is, maybe twenty 570 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,959 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars an hour now to advise Hunter Biden 571 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: and your assistant just ran in and said, Hunter Biden 572 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: just did Moby's podcast, and for all just I can 573 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: only imagine him being like of anybody on the planet 574 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: that he could do. 575 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, well, okay for that that it's 576 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 2: Moby's podcast. I agree with you that that's done. But 577 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 2: he's taking this to the public because it's all messaging. 578 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 2: He will not spend like mark this down, folks like 579 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 2: link to this crazy guy named Buck Sexton today. Hunter 580 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 2: Biden will not spend one day in jail. He knows it, 581 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: we should all know it. It's not gonna happen. So 582 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 2: all this is then between now and whenever the pardons 583 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: come is a pr war. So he's gonna a normal 584 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 2: You know this, Clay, You're an actual lawyer, normal defendant, 585 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 2: and any lawyer is going to say shut your mouth, yes, 586 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 2: say nothing up here nowhere. 587 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: Look, I'm gonna say it's a little bit. 588 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 2: Also, like you see, Trump knows it's all political, so 589 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: he's out there fighting this out in public to degree 590 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 2: that he can. The judges are trying to gag him sometimes, 591 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 2: but it's a different situation than what a normal person 592 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: would have. But the fact that it's Moby. 593 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: It's Moby. Trump's not doing Jewels podcast. That's right, Ndrop, 594 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: it's Moby. It's Moby. I mean, if you came on 595 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: to me right now and you were like, hey, Trump 596 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: just did a sit down exclusive on his newest charges 597 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,719 Speaker 1: with Debbie Gibson, I'd be like, I don't know, you 598 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: know that that it's the best move for Trump to 599 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: be hanging out with death. 600 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: Sorry, let's do some respect for Debbie. Okay, my first 601 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 2: ever concert, my mom took me. I was ten. 602 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: I think how about that's funny, Okay. Paul Abduel Paul 603 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: Abdul is my first ever concert. By the way, really, 604 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: if if I team Debbie, I color me bad. Was 605 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: the opener. BBB A D D extra D. That's how 606 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: bad they were was the opener. And then it went 607 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: into Paul Abduall, one step forward, two steps back with 608 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: mc scattcat. For those of you out there who remember, 609 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: was that the peak because opposite popularity? I remember that 610 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: music video backwards and forwards. Uh if I told you, hey, 611 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 1: Trump has just gone into deep detail about the newest 612 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: indictment against him, and you're like, Okay, who'd he talk 613 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: to Megan, Kelly Clay and Buck Tucker Carlson. No, No, 614 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: he went on with with with Paul Abduall. You'd be like, 615 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: that's a little bit of an interesting decision. So we're 616 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: gonna play that audio for you here to look at you. 617 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: But it actually kind of makes some sense because he 618 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: has to go with someone who knows nothing, who's tied 619 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: him with the Hollywood celebrity set, right. I mean he 620 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: doesn't like if he went on if he went on 621 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: Rogan show, I mean, it would be by the way, 622 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: that would be a I would watch. It would be 623 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: really interesting. Has an invite on this show. If you're 624 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: listening right now, Hunter, go ahead and call in. We'll 625 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: put you on. 626 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 2: But but Rogan would ask the obvious and real questions. 627 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he would be nice and respectful 628 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 2: about it because that's his that's his way. But he 629 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 2: would ask like, I mean, come on, man, like, did 630 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 2: you really think you're gonna get away with this? 631 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: Moby's gonna be like yeah, man, it's like the machine 632 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: like yeah, you know, it's just all nice because Mobi like, 633 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: why does Moby have a podcast? Are there lots of 634 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: people out there like I got to know what Moby 635 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: thinks about anything. I honestly, the only time I think 636 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: about Moby is I think Moby's most famous for getting 637 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: ridiculed in the eminem rap song. 638 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 2: Do you remember the late nineties when everyone, all of 639 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 2: a sudden, everyone you knew had a blog. 640 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: You know, everyone had a blog. These days everyone has 641 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: a podcast. But everybody's got a podcast, at least on 642 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: the blog front in theory. I know a lot of 643 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: rich people had other people writing for them, but at 644 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: least in theory, it was you writing it. It's hard. 645 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: Although there is the report that Megan Markle faked her 646 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: own podcast, which is amazing, right that other people interviewed 647 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: and she just recorded the questions after the fact. That 648 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: was what was reported. I start to wonder if maybe 649 00:35:55,040 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 1: she's like a high concept construct as the ultimate celeberty 650 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 1: villain like Megan Markle because whatever I hear about her, 651 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: it just makes her. 652 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 2: Less and less likable. But maybe that's the role, like 653 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 2: maybe she's playing. And you know what, it's like, the 654 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 2: bad guy in wrestling is the heel, right, that's the 655 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 2: bad guy. 656 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to put our team into watching this 657 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: because Moby's podcast has part one with Hunter Biden up 658 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: on YouTube partner. 659 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go check out. We're gonna check out a 660 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 2: little bit of Moby podcast with Hudder Biden because this 661 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 2: is crazy town, folks.

We're diving 667 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 2: into it with Moby revelation threw me off. 668 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:45,479 Speaker 1: Buck
