1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: Welcome in Monday edition. Happy early fourth of July. I 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: know that a lot of you are on the road, 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: maybe you are listening in places where you have already 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:16,279 Speaker 1: arrived to celebrate our nation's birthday. We certainly appreciate all 5 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: of you out there listening to us every single day 6 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: on the first of July, as we now sit essentially 7 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: four months away from election day and the panic well, 8 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: it is spreading rapidly across the Democrat Party and we 9 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: have got a lot of details to discuss surrounding the 10 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:48,319 Speaker 1: ongoing fallout of debate implosion from Joe Biden and the 11 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: resulting implosion of his candidacy that has continued to play 12 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: out in slow motion. We will discuss all of that 13 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: as for now, By is claiming that he is going 14 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: to stay in the race, which I think is absolutely 15 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: fabulous news for those of us who want to see 16 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump win, because I frankly don't see any way 17 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: four months out that Joe Biden is capable of winning, 18 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: and there's lots of data to support that that is true, 19 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: and we will discuss that in great detail today. Take 20 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: your calls, answer them on a variety of topics as well. 21 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and two eight two two eight eight two. 22 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: I am solo today because Buck is that jury duty 23 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: in Miami. He just texted me that he's going in 24 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: for vardar that it means he's being questioned. He doesn't 25 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: know at all what case he is potentially involved in, 26 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: but that is where he is as we speak right now. 27 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: So who knows how long or if he'll get seated 28 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: on jury duty, but we hope to have him back 29 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. But he had put it off 30 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: as long as he could, and they said he had 31 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: to show up today. So that is where Buck is. 32 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: But major breaking news in the last hour and a 33 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: half or so, the Supreme Court has sided with Donald 34 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: Trump on presidential immunity to a large degree in a 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: six to three decision. Big picture, this means that the 36 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: only case that is going to be completed and go 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: to a jury and have a verdict rendered is the 38 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: Alvin Bragg case. We'll talk about that. The New York 39 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: City bookkeeping felonies elevated from a misdemeanor to a felony. 40 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: That sentencing scheduled right now for Thursday of next week. 41 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: I've got some theories on that, as you might imagine, 42 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: but let's talk right now about what the presidential immunity 43 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: case told us, what's going to happen now, and why 44 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: there are so many left wingers already beginning to panic 45 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: associated with the failure of their law for law fare attempts. 46 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: Now not a surprise the way this one broke down. 47 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: The three liberals on the left in the court disagreeing 48 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: with the majority. But essentially, what the court said is 49 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: that the president has a substantial privilege associated with his 50 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: office that makes it difficult to charge him with crimes 51 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: that are related to his official acts as president of 52 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: the United States. They took some of the allegations in 53 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: this complaint filed by Jack Smith and said, we believe 54 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: these are official acts, which officially takes them off the board. 55 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: And then they said there remained some acts which while 56 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: there may be a presumption that they are within presidential privilege. 57 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: And that's very important because the presumption means presumption that 58 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: a crime was not committed. In other words, you have 59 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: to get over the protective penumber surrounding the president's acts. 60 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: And then there are potentially unofficial acts which could be prosecutable. 61 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: And let me kind of take you into that, and 62 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: I will answer questions if you guys want to reach 63 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: out via email, if you want to call in eight 64 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: hundred and two eight two two eight eight two to 65 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: the best of my legal ability here, but we've tried 66 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 1: to tell you this is the direction this was coming. 67 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: And I told you I thought this opinion would come 68 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: down in the July fourth week, and we now have it. 69 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: And again, big picture, what this does is the Jack 70 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: Smith case is over. It is not going to go 71 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: to a jury. It is not even I believe possible 72 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: to even start it between now and November. If Trump wins, 73 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: he'll have his Department of Justice dismiss this case. But 74 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: now there will be a battle over what is official 75 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: and what is inofficial for purposes of these acts. And 76 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: let me give you just kind of an idea of 77 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: official versus unofficial acts. If a president decides that there 78 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: is a terror group operating in a foreign country, and 79 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: he believes that we need to strike that terror group, 80 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: and when we strike, it actually ends up being the case, 81 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: as recently happened in Afghanistan, that we end up killing 82 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: someone who was innocent and in fact they were not 83 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: the terrorists that we thought they were. Even though that 84 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: has led to the death of an innocent person. That 85 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: would be an official act, and the president would not 86 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: be able to be charged for that decision. And I 87 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: think most of you out there, regardless of your politics, 88 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: you would sit around and you would say, Okay, that's 89 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: why presidential powers matter so much. The President's not going 90 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: to be perfect. His advisors are not going to be perfect. 91 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: He can be acting in what he believes is the 92 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: best interest of our nation, to protect the troops, to 93 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: protect the American citizens, and he can be wrong. And 94 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: I used that example because Biden just did that. Biden 95 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: just killed in the past year or so a one 96 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: hundred percent innocent man in Afghanistan and members of his family. 97 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: According to the reporting of The New York Times, that 98 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: guy was totally and his family certainly without any wrongdoing, 99 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: and we screwed up and he was killed. They thought 100 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: he was a terrorist. He wasn't. Even though I think 101 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's an awful president, Biden was acting on the 102 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: recommendations of his national security team, and that failure shouldn't 103 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: put Joe Biden in prison. He shouldn't be able to 104 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: be charged with a violation of the law because that 105 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: was well within his presidential powers. I think most of 106 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: you out there nodding along saying yeah, okay, I understand 107 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,679 Speaker 1: that that's an important legacy opinion that they have now 108 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: addressed in the Supreme Court. Okay, what about unofficial acts. 109 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: The example that I've used on this show for some 110 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: time is if the President of the United States in 111 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: the oval office picked up a paperweight and hit one 112 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: of his advisors in the head because he was angry 113 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: at that advisor, and when he struck that advisor, he 114 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: caught them in the temple, and that individual died, the 115 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: president would be prosecutable because that is outside the scope 116 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: of his official access. President. That's an easy one. I've 117 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: given you two easy ones. One president orders an attack 118 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: on a terrorist, ends up getting it wrong, innocent man dies, 119 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: President can't be prosecuted. That's an official act. On the 120 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: opposite extreme, president picks up a paperweight in the oval office, 121 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: strikes an advisor or a later or whoever it might be, 122 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: in the White House residence and kills that individual. The 123 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: president would be prosecutable because that's not an official act. 124 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: Those are sort of the permutations the scope of potential analysis. 125 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: What the Supreme Court has said with some of the 126 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: acts that Trump undertook on that day of January sixth, 127 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: but also surrounding his challenge of the election results of 128 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty is we're going to now send this back 129 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: to the district court. They are going to examine is 130 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: this an official or an unofficial act. If they believe 131 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: that it is an unofficial act, then theoretically Trump could 132 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: be prosecuted for that because it is not within the 133 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: scope of his presidential powers. But once they make that determination, 134 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: and Judge Chutkin could make the determination that all of 135 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: these are presidential acts because again, remember the presumption is 136 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: that the president is engaging in an official act. So honestly, 137 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: most of the time, especially I believe, having read this opinion, 138 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: these acts and I told you this for a while, 139 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: I think they are within the official powers of the president. 140 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: But if she decides that they are not, and that 141 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: these are basically private acts outside of the scope of 142 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: his presidential powers, it is more akin to the analogy 143 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: I made of the president picking up a paperweight and 144 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: striking someone in the head, committing a murder outside of 145 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: the scope of his official acts, then it will go 146 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: to the DC Circuit on appeal probably and then also 147 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: back to the Supreme Court, which would then have to 148 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: consider it, probably in the next year term. Basically, this 149 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: case is finished with what we know about Atlanta. I 150 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: think also significantly the Atlanta case, which deals with many 151 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: of the same aspects as the cases of January sixth, 152 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: my opinion, the Atlanta case with our good friend Fanny 153 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: willis also finished. And again the classified document case a 154 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: little bit different, but it doesn't appear that one is 155 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: moving forward anytime soon either. The big takeaway here is 156 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: that the Biden gamble that they were going to tie 157 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: up President Trump in court, and that he was going 158 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: to be a serial convicted felon, and that that was 159 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: going to render her him, in the minds of the electorate, 160 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: ineligible or unable to be elected because of because of 161 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: the lawfair machinations. That's all failed. Worse for the Biden administration. 162 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: It has now blown up in their face and in 163 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: the process made Trump stronger than he was before all 164 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: of this started. Now that doesn't mean that now the 165 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: Democrat Party, desperate as it is likely to be, may 166 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: not make a totally irrational move and try to put 167 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: Trump in prison next week. I actually think Judge Merchant 168 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: is going to try that. You are dealing with a 169 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 1: cornered politician in Joe Biden, who is losing on all fronts, who, 170 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: if the election were today, would not only lose. I 171 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: don't believe it would be particularly close in the electoral 172 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: college based on all the battleground polling. Desperate times call 173 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: for desperate measures. Be aware we have entered desperation zone 174 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: Democrats four months out.

I give them credit here. I believe 179 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: they got this case close to one hundred percent right. 180 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: And it's not just a Trump precedent. This is about 181 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: the power of every president for the rest of our 182 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 1: lives and beyond the lives of the living today. This 183 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: is a precedent that will stand potentially for hundreds of 184 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: years as an attempt to deligate exactly what the president's 185 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: powers are in a criminal context, as it pertains to 186 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: official and unofficial business.

Appreciate all 215 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us. Let me go ahead 216 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: and give you some of the breaking news sound for 217 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: those of you out there who are just learning about 218 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: what happened with the Supreme Court decision, which was so 219 00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: incredibly important towards establishing what is presidential unity. Here's our 220 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: good friend Shannon Breem reporting. She is the Supreme Court 221 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: reporter for Fox News. Here she is outside the courtroom 222 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: reporting on the official drop of the opinion just a 223 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: couple of hours ago. Listen, it does find this. 224 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 3: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of 225 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: presidential power entitles a former president to absolute immunity from 226 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 3: criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. 227 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 3: He is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution 228 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 3: for all his official acts. There is no immunity for 229 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: unofficial acts. That's the first blush we've got on this 230 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 3: is it looks like a six to three split. We've 231 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 3: got the descent by Justice Sodermara, Kagan and Jackson join that. 232 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: Okay, So that is the breaking news on Fox News 233 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: A bit early. Er Jonathan Turley, George Washington University law professor, 234 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: expert on the First Amendment among many other issues. Here 235 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: is what he said about the Supreme Court's ruling. 236 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 4: This is along the lines of many of us anticipated 237 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 4: that the Court did not go with absolute immunity on everything, 238 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 4: but did say that there's absolute immunity when it comes 239 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 4: to core constitutional powers. This case is going to have 240 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: to go back to the district Court, which is going 241 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 4: to have to try to sort of thread this needle 242 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 4: to determine what in the case would not fall under 243 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 4: these protections. But this is obviously a win for President 244 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 4: Trump in the sense that the Special Council was arguing, 245 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 4: as with the lower court, that there was very little 246 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 4: immunity here to be concerned with. 247 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: So huge win for Trump. A Supreme Court opinion that 248 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: is going to stand for a long time and apply 249 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: despite the histrionics that you're already hearing on the left, 250 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: to future Democrat presidents as well. It applies to Joe 251 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: Biden today. I said, Joe Biden clearly under this opinion, 252 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: could not be held criminally responsible for his failed murder. 253 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: It is a murder of an innocent man in Afghanistan 254 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: that was within the province of his presidential powers. But 255 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: if you engage in a criminal act that is clearly 256 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: outside the official scope of your duties, you should be 257 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: held accountable. This is to me a really good, honest, logical, 258 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: common sense ruling from this Supreme Court. Disagreed with them 259 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: last week. I think they nailed this here and again. 260 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: And this is important from the political perspective. It is 261 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: going to set off even more shock waves inside of 262 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: this presidential campaign. There is a full fledged panic that 263 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: has set in and the Biden team has no idea 264 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: what to do to beat Trump right now. They're desperate. 265 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: Be ready. My family, he relies on Puretalk for cell 266 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: phone service. In fact, my teenage son he's away at 267 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: camp right now, sixteen years old. I'm communicating with him 268 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: every single day. On his Puretalk phone. That's how we 269 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: stay in touch. My family relies on Puretalk not only 270 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: for great signals and to stay in touch, but also 271 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: to save a bundle of money. Instead of Verizon T 272 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: Mobile or AT and T, you can get hooked up 273 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: same five G nationwide network at towers and just twenty 274 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: dollars a month, unlimited talk, text, plenty of high speed data. 275 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: Switch your cell phone service before the fourth of July 276 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: weekend and you help support veterans across the country. Just 277 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: dial Pound two fifty say the keywords Clay and Buck. 278 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: You'll be connected to Puretalk's US customer service team. That's 279 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: Pound two five zero. Say Clay and Buck. 280 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 2: Clay, Travis, and Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth. 281 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay, Travis, buckse Exit show, all of 282 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 1: you hanging out with us. We are talking about the 283 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: major historic Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity which has 284 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: just come down in the last couple of hours. Also 285 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 1: connected to the continued fallout of Joe Biden's disastrous debate 286 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: performance on Thursday. These situations, I think are now connected 287 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: to what's going to happen next week. And let me 288 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: lay out exactly. Again, this is just the legal because 289 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: in the second hour we're going to dive into all 290 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: of the stories that were coming out over the weekend 291 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: about the pressure on Joe Biden, about doctor Jill and 292 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden saying, Oh Joe, You've got to keep running. 293 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: You did a fantastic job. We're going to talk about 294 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: all of the ramifications of that as well. But I 295 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: think what you need to know now is there are 296 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: clearly no real pathways to significant legal success against Donald 297 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: Trump left on the board between now November. Buck and 298 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: I have both said, and Buck is at jury duty. 299 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: Ironically enough, as we break down all this legal maneuverings, 300 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: Buck and I have both said, we think there's a 301 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: decent chance, maybe even a strong chance, that on Thursday 302 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: of next week, that is one week from July fourth, 303 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 1: July eleventh, in New York City, that Judge merchand may 304 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: Well try to put Donald Trump in prison for the 305 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: felony convictions there. Why because they're desperate, and they thought 306 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: they were going to have cases in Atlanta and South 307 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: Florida and DC. And now, as I've said for some time, 308 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. I was looking at this trying 309 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: to analyze it. You'll remember some people were saying, oh, 310 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: there's gonna be four cases finished, and I said, basically, 311 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: from the get go, I feel like maybe one gets through. 312 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna end up being correct. But the 313 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 1: one that did get through, they're desperate. Now, they're cornered animals. 314 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: And can you imagine the reaction if next week Judge 315 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: Merchand says the punishment that I think fits this crime 316 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: is Donald Trump has to pay a fine of one 317 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars for the business records felony convictions. The 318 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: left will lose its mind because after all of this, 319 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: in addition to probably benefiting that is Trump's overall poll 320 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: numbers have gone up. In addition to all of that, 321 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: there is a not insubstantial chance now that Trump could 322 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: get off next week with nothing. And then everyone sitting 323 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: around on the left and they're saying, wait a minute, 324 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: We've got a president with dementia who doesn't have the 325 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: physical or mental capacity to be president. His wife is 326 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: refusing to even consider the possibility that he should step down, 327 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: his son, the crackhead convicted felon, is one of his 328 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: top advisors, and also telling him Hey, Dad, you can't 329 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: step down and you are handcuffed. As all of this 330 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: polling continues to come in saying Trump is in the lead. 331 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: That's why I think one of their last opportunities, opportunities 332 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: to change the narrative is doing something in the legal 333 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: process next week, which is unexpected right now if you 334 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 1: talk to most legal experts, that is trying to put 335 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: Trump in prison over this, because it's so outrageous and 336 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: so unjustified based on traditional precedent. But we're in abnormal 337 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: times and Democrats have proven that they will behave in 338 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: ways that are manifestly indefensible, and so I think there 339 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 1: is a very good chance that as a result of 340 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: this Supreme Court case, as a result of Anny willis 341 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: probably going to get lose that case down in Atlanta. 342 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: But I think even the Supreme Court immunity case likely 343 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 1: sends the Atlanta case into the appellate sphere, and I 344 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: think they're going to look at that and have to 345 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: analyze official versus unofficial acts in that case as well, 346 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: because it doesn't stand a reason that you can prosecute 347 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: under state law a president any easier for official unofficial 348 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: acts than you could under federal law, So that case 349 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: is going to get tossed. That case is done, and 350 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,239 Speaker 1: that leaves South Florida, where Judge Eileen Cannon has been 351 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: rightly pointing out, Wait a minute, Joe Biden actually kept 352 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: classified documents and bragged about it on tape, and the 353 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: Department of Justice said Joe Biden's brain doesn't work well 354 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: enough for him to be charged that. If that's not 355 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: selective prosecution, I don't know what is. That case is 356 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: out the window too. So you're sitting around, You're saying, 357 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: the only bite at the criminal apple we're going to 358 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: get is New York City. So how do you respond 359 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: to that? You, I believe engage in reckless acts. Now 360 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: even more bringing that case in the first place as 361 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: a felony was a reckless act by Alvin Bragg. But 362 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: now that is the last best option to try to 363 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: stop the Trump train. And I just refuse to believe 364 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 1: Merchand after all of the rulings he's had is going 365 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: to come out next week and say, yeah, the conviction happened, 366 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: no prison time, and we're just going to find you 367 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars. I can't believe that he's going 368 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: to allow that to happen, and I think a lot 369 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: of you questioned it as well. So that is where 370 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: we are. A couple of you want to weigh in. 371 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and two A two two eight A two 372 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: deluged with questions on the VIP emails. I'm going to 373 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: go through some of those as well and read them 374 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: during this break when I have a little bit of time. 375 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: But we've got but several people out there who want 376 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: to weigh in. Let's start with David in San Antonio. 377 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 1: What you got for me? 378 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 5: Hey, Clay, I agree with your analysis completely. I love 379 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 5: your show. You guys are just awesome. My question is 380 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 5: if Trump is able to get elected, which you know 381 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 5: that's still up for debate as far as what they're 382 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 5: going to pull, is it possible to move all of 383 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 5: the federal courts out of DC where there's a different 384 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 5: jury pull to pull from, because right now they have 385 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 5: the judges and the jury pull, which makes it a 386 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 5: slam dunk for their site. 387 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: It's a great question. So, first of all, if Trump 388 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: is elected, he will dismiss I believe, these federal charges 389 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: against him because he'll be in charge of the Department 390 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: of Justice. Then he'll have a new Attorney General. But 391 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,479 Speaker 1: what you're hitting on is something that I have hammered 392 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: on this show for some time. I believe what we 393 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 1: need to have put in place is is, if you 394 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: are charged with federal offenses in Washington, d C. You 395 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: should be able to remove that to the federal location 396 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: of your jurisdiction. So, for instance, let's pretend that I 397 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: got charged with federal crimes in Washington, d C. That 398 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: jury pool is not gonna stun you, probably not likely 399 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: to be made up with a ton of huge Clay 400 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton fans. The jury would be a 401 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: ninety five ninety seven percent left wing jury pool, which 402 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: is likely to convict, as we've seen with Steve Bannon, 403 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: who is going into prison today, which we can't forget 404 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: what exactly is going on. While Trump may be winning 405 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 1: some aspects in the legal process, there are many people 406 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: out there that are essentially being put in prison because 407 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: they have the audacity to stand up to our existing 408 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: infrastructure of left wing active the lawfair you should be 409 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: able to remove it to your home jurisdiction. So if 410 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: they want to bring charges against me in Washington, d C. 411 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: I should be able to say, hey, let me bring 412 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: it back to my home state. I want to bring 413 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: it back to the state of Tennessee, where I'm actually 414 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: a domicile. Where I live, I will get a fair 415 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: jury pool in my home that will actually be part 416 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: of my jury of peers. I think that needs to 417 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: be a law that's passed, and I have talked to 418 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: a bunch of Senators and a bunch of prominent people 419 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: in the House about this. I think, by the way, 420 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: the protections would also apply to anyone else. But if 421 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: somebody brings federal charges against you of a political nature 422 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: trying to use Washington, DC as the forum, I think 423 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: you should be able to remove it to your home jurisdiction. 424 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: That feels to me like one way to push back 425 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: against the lawfair and the kangaroo court advantage the forum shopping, 426 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: which is clearly going on as it pertains to bringing 427 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: charges in those jurisdictions. Jason and Colorado, What you got 428 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: for me? 429 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,719 Speaker 6: The hyperbolics in splitting hearers, But they're they're trying to 430 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 6: determine what's official what's unofficial. So first are they going 431 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 6: to have to determine whether or not that was political 432 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 6: speech that he had on January sixth, second, and second, 433 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 6: are they going to be able to turn around and 434 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 6: determine what is like official sentences or statements that he 435 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 6: made versus what is political statements that he made that day. 436 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: Yes, I mean the easy answer is this is going 437 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: to be now sent back to the district court. Again. 438 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: I think it's important that the court said that there 439 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: is presumptive immunity. And that's kind of a complicated phrase 440 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: that's floating around out there, but I think it's very significant. Basically, 441 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: it means the presumption is the act of the president 442 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: is legal and not criminal in nature. So one way 443 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: to think about this is there is a number of 444 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: powers that surrounds the presidency. Some acts are clearly official 445 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: in nature. When a president sits down and pulls out 446 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: a pen and signs a bill into law, that is 447 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,239 Speaker 1: clearly a presidential act that is within the scope of 448 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: his powers. Other acts, and again I use the example 449 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: of picking up a paperweight in the oval office and 450 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: striking someone and killing them I think would clearly be 451 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: outside the scope of an official act. But when you 452 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: have a presumptive immunity, it is going to be well 453 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: nigh in my opinion, impossible to argue that jan six 454 00:29:56,280 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: related tweets and behavior that alternate al slates that asking 455 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: the vice president to engage in an act that arguably 456 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: is within his constitutional powers. To me, all of that 457 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: is presumptive immunity. I think it is going to be 458 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: very hard to argue that those are unofficial acts, not 459 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: only in the Jack Smith case, but also in the 460 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: Fanny Willis case. So those cases, to me are both 461 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: gone now. Now. Judge Chuckkin, to be fair, clearly wants 462 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:32,719 Speaker 1: Trump guilty here, as does Jack Smith. It's possible that 463 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: they will look at all these acts and argue, hey, 464 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: we believe these are outside the scope of the president's 465 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: official powers. She will issue a ruling on that. Then 466 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: it will go to the DC Court of Appeals. That's 467 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: a left wing court. They might well rubber stamp Judge 468 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: Chuckkin's opinion. Then it would go to the Supreme Court, 469 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: and then the Supreme Court would have to get into 470 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: the nitty gritty potentially of deciding whether or not these 471 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: particular acts do or do not consist of official acts 472 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: or unofficial acts. But all of that will take so 473 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: long that I think the Supreme Court will punt on 474 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: this and say, if Trump wins, it gets dismissed, and 475 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: so the issue becomes mute, moot, and then moot. They 476 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: don't have the opportunity or necessity to need to rule 477 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: on the individual acts themselves. I think that's what the 478 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is hoping. They have put forward a powerful 479 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: overall framework that presumes immunity for the president, Democrat, Republican, 480 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: independent into the future, I believe, because they don't want 481 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: to create a scenario which is inevitable. I believe if 482 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: it were allowed to prosecute the president where the president 483 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: would almost always get charged with crimes because there would 484 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: always be able claim that it was an unofficial act. 485 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 1: Now this is getting complicated, but I'm trying to give 486 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: you a roadmap of where we're going, probably in a 487 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: more detailed fashion than you're almost gonna hear anywhere else 488 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: in media. But again, the presumptive immunity is going to 489 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: be a hurdle that is hard to get over because 490 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: you have to overcome the presumption. Basically, the Court is saying, hey, 491 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: we believe the president is almost always acting in his 492 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: official duties. In order to prove that he's not, you 493 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: have to overcome our presumption of presidential powers, and I 494 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: don't think any of the acts here are able to 495 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: do that. I think the president engaging in clear criminal 496 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: behavior or alleged criminal behavior. For instance, if the president 497 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:57,239 Speaker 1: attacked his wife, that would not be protected as an 498 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: official act. If the president engaged in domestic violence, if 499 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: the president assaulted someone, that would not be considered an 500 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: official act. Those are easy cases in theory still bring. 501 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: But this, I believe, effectively ends these cases. I think 502 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: it's the right decision. I think it's an incredibly important decision, 503 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: and it will stand the test of time. Whether it's 504 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: a Democrat or Republican. You guys out there listening right 505 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: now may in the years ahead come to regret this decision, 506 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: because there may be a Democrat or someone that you 507 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: don't like from a political perspective, who makes a decision 508 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: that you believe is outside the bounds of his presidential authority. 509 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: What the court is saying is, we're going to presume 510 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: that the president acts in a lawful manner, and you 511 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: have to overcome that presumption in order to charge him 512 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: with an illegal act. We'll take more calls, we'll break 513 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: down more of this and significantly dive into the political 514 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: fallout of the Biden debate versus Trump on Thursday as well, 515 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: which is also a huge story. We're overloaded with monster 516 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: stories right now. Today, most CEOs are very successful companies, 517 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: enjoy a lucrative cash salary. Until a couple of years ago, 518 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: Buck's friend Porter Stansbury did too. He got paid a 519 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: substantial salary to run a successful financial research company, but 520 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,839 Speaker 1: now he's reduced that to just a dollar a year, 521 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: choosing a totally different compensation form. Porter did it because 522 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: he says he's found a much better way to save 523 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: and get paid. He sees a new form of money 524 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: in America. It's making some people very rich. You don't 525 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: have to be a CEO to obtain this new kind 526 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: of compensation. Thousands of Americans in a wide variety of 527 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 1: full time roles have already started to be compensated in 528 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: this new form. Factory workers to office staff members, all 529 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: different sorts of employees. Porter's learned every American's legally entitled 530 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: to use this not well known currency few know much 531 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 1: about now. Porter is hoping to change that decision from 532 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: so many people. But it's critical to understand how America's 533 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: new money system works. He believes it's the most critical 534 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: way to protect your income as the dollar continues to 535 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: decline in value.

Over the weekend, 543 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: the Biden team tried to put out the fire that 544 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 1: has emerged into massive conflagration. Ever since we all watch 545 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: Thursday night's ninety minute debate, and the Biden team has 546 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: been scrambling to try to come up with a different 547 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: reason why someone other than Joe Biden himself is to blame. 548 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,399 Speaker 1: This is not a joke, they have to I'm always 549 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: quoting Biden when I say that not a joke. They 550 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: have said the makeup artist is to blame for why 551 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was so bad on Thursday. They have said 552 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: all of his advising team needs to be fired. They 553 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: have said that Biden was believe it or not over prepared. 554 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: They have said that Biden had a cold. They have 555 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: said that CNN is to blame. They have said that 556 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 1: the debate happened too late at night. And now they 557 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: are saying the president is really good, but only from 558 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: ten am to four pm. These are all different defenses 559 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: the Biden team has put out in their scramble over 560 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: the past several days. What happens now with the Biden campaign? 561 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,879 Speaker 1: Does he stay or does he go? We'll talk about 562 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: it next
