00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320

Speaker 1: we have got an absolutely loaded show. Julie Kelly going

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: on with the January sixth issues as well as the

8
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: Trump mar Alago raid. And she's covering the Michigan Governor

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping trial, the second one which appears to

10
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: be falling apart based on lies from the FBI. Have

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: you heard that before? Doctor Oz running for Senate in Pennsylvania.

12
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 1: He will join us at two thirty. Those are our

13
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,319
Speaker 1: two guests. Buck is off for today, so you will

14
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: have me solo. We'll open up phone lines in our

15
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: number two and our number three, perhaps maybe even a

16
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: little bit earlier, to talk about everything going on right now.

17
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: And there are a frenzy of stories out there. COVID

18
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: basically acknowledged now by the CDC to be over. We

19
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: will talk about that at some point. Alex Berenson has

20
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,199
Speaker 1: caught the White House trying to get him banned from

21
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: Twitter over his opinions on COVID, which have all been

22
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: proven to be true. But we begin where we have

23
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: been all week long, with the latest on the Trump investigation,

24
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: the Trump raid, the unprecedented, I believe frankly unconstitutional in

25
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: many ways, persecution of Donald Trump that we are seeing

26
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: by his former opponent in the twenty twenty election, Joe

27
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: Biden and his Department of Justice. Now I'm gonna walk

28
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: you through everything, because I know the timeline here has

29
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: gotten somewhat confusing. I'm gonna walk you through everything, and

30
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: then I'm going to tell you why it matters to

31
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,919
Speaker 1: such a large extent and where I believe we are headed.

32
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,279
Speaker 1: So let's start here. Yesterday, as we finished Thursday show,

33
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: we were waiting on Merrick Garland to come out and

34
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: address the media. He actually appeared forty minutes late for

35
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: his own press conference. It was only a couple of minutes.

36
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: There was not very much information that was provided, but

37
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,399
Speaker 1: I found the most significant aspect of that press conference

38
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: to be for the first time Merrick Garland admitting that

39
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: he had personally directed the warrants to be filed with

40
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: the South Florida judge, listen to Merrick Garland make that statement.

41
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: There are, however, certain points I want you to know. First,

42
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: I personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant

43
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: in this matter. Second, the Department does not take such

44
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: a decision lately, where possible in a standard practice to

45
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: seek less intrusive means as an alternative to a search,

46
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: and to narrowly scope any search that is undertaken. Third,

47
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: let me address recent unfounded attacks on the professionalism of

48
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: the FBI and Justice Department agents and pride. Right, Let's

49
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: go ahead and cut it off there, because we know

50
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: that he's going to continue to say nothing of any

51
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: substance there, and we continue to enforce upon upon you

52
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: and encourage don't do anything dumb. The FBI is looking

53
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: for opportunities right now to make you look like a

54
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: January sixth insurrectionist, and we've already seen some of this

55
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: potentially occurring in Cincinnati. Don't act out violently. Period. Okay,

56
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: let's start here. So Marrek Garland said he personally approved

57
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: this raid. What does that mean and why is it important?

58
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you. Let me also update you

59
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: first with this timeline. So This is significant and I

60
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: don't believe as being discussed enough. Trump and his lawyers

61
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: had been in discussions with the National Archives about a

62
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: leg to presidential documents. Four months in fact, in June,

63
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: representatives of the National Archives and the government came to

64
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: Mara Lago to see what documents Donald Trump had in

65
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: his possession there. While they were there, Trump came down,

66
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: said high and said, let me do whatever I can

67
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: effectively to help you in this process. That was in June.

68
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 1: There had been all very easygoing conciliatory relationship between anyone

69
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: in the government and Trump over these documents. Then we

70
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: hear nothing. Four months in fact, back in June, they said, hey,

71
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: can you padlock this door more? Can you provide greater security?

72
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: They did it at Mara Lago. That was in June.

73
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: Then we hear absolutely nothing according to the Trump people,

74
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: and in August, we have all of these FBI agents

75
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: on Monday Day storm the gates of Mara Lago and

76
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: spend nine hours inside of Mara Lago. They sent Trump's

77
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: attorneys outside to wait in the parking lot outdoors. They

78
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: insisted that they had complete run of the place to

79
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: examine any and everything there, including going through Milania Trump's clothes.

80
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: According to reports nine hours that they spent. This is

81
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: an unprecedented raid. Never in United States history has a

82
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: situation like this occurred. Now there is a discussion, and

83
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: maybe it's going to happen during the course of today's show,

84
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: in which case we will break it down for you

85
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: over whether some of the details surrounding this warrant are

86
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: going to be released. Well, Merritt Garland said yesterday, we're

87
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: fine with releasing some of these details. The problem is

88
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 1: that some of them will probably be crossed out and

89
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: censored as a part of arguing that they still impact

90
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 1: national security. But he said the government had no issue

91
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: with doing that. Late last night, President Trump said that

92
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: he was fine with this issue. Oh, by the way,

93
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: Merritt Garland said there would have no comments whatsoever about

94
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: this investigation into Donald Trump and the raid that he

95
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: ordered that is off the charts, unprecedented legally. Well, then

96
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: the Washington Post within a couple of hours came out

97
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: with a story saying that some of the documents there

98
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: had to do with nuclear weapons and as a result,

99
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: they had to act with alacrity. Now, what's interesting about

100
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: that is the warrant was obtained on Friday. They didn't

101
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: go in until Monday. The Washington Post has been wrong.

102
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: It cited two anonymous sources in this nuclear weapons report.

103
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: They've been wrong about everything with Trump for basically seven years.

104
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: A special when anonymous sources are involved, and so I

105
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: am incredibly skeptical of the likelihood that this story is true. Well,

106
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: early this morning, Trump fired back on truth Social and

107
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: said nuclear weapons issue is a hoax, just like Russia.

108
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: Russia Russia was a hoax. Two impeachments were a hoax,

109
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: The Mueller investigation was a hoax, and much more same

110
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: sleazy people involved. Why wouldn't the FBI allow the inspection

111
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: of areas at Mara Lago with our lawyers or others present,

112
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: made them wait outside and the heat wouldn't let them

113
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: even get close. Said absolutely, not planting information. Anyone reminds

114
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: me of the Christopher Steele dossier. Okay, So that was

115
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: Trump on truth Social. That is basically the background of

116
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: where we are right now. It's possible that we will

117
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: get more information about these warrants during the course of

118
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: today's show, and of course I will update you instantaneously

119
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: if that information comes down, so you can always stay

120
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: tuned to us to get those updates. That's the background,

121
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: and it's rather complicated. But let me tell you now

122
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: where we're going and why this is so significant, And

123
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: I want to start right here. Merritt Garland said yesterday

124
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: that he personally approved the raid that happened at Donald

125
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: Trump's residence. Why is that significant? I want you to

126
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: think about this for a minute with me. In addition

127
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: to the fact that we have never seen a raid

128
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: like this on a former president, we are in Banana Republic,

129
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: third world country level investigatory behavior right now. Because Merritt

130
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: Garland is the top Justice Department official for Joe Biden,

131
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: the man who ran against Donald Trump in twenty twenty

132
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: and at least thinks that he's going to run against

133
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: him in twenty twenty four. We've ever seen this in

134
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: our nation's entire history. Do you trust the top competitor

135
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump to be investigating Donald Trump to determine

136
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: whether or not he broke the law? Look, the idea

137
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: that Merrick Garland is not recusing himself from this investigation

138
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:29,359
Speaker 1: and this entire process is a stain on our nation's

139
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: history and the fact that I may be the only person.

140
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: Even pointing this out to you in all of media

141
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: should have you questioning, way a minute, why in the

142
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: world are we allowing the number one top justice official

143
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: of Joe Biden to enter to investigate his top political opponent. Look,

144
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: as lawyers, it's not only impropriety that leads to accusal,

145
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: it's the appearance of impropriety. How in the world can

146
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: anyone believe that Merritt Garland, especially given the FBI's already

147
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 1: history with Donald Trump and the Department of Justice's history

148
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump, How can anyone believe that he can

149
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: conduct an impartial investigation of his employers because Joe Biden's

150
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: his employer of his employer's top rival for the presidency.

151
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: The fact that Merritt Garland is in any way involved,

152
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: and he said yesterday I personally approved this warrant, how

153
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: is he allowed to lead an investigation into the top

154
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: political rival of his boss. This is next level Banana

155
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: republic crazy. How in the world is no one else

156
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: other me, almost in all the media saying, Merrick Garland,

157
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: regardless of what you think, Democrat, Republican, an independent, he

158
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: can't conduct this investigation. He is too biased. His entire

159
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: job status depends on Joe Biden being president. If he

160
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: wants to remain Attorney General going into a next term.

161
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: The only way he gets that job as if Joe

162
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: Biden wins. The only way he continues to have the

163
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: power and influence and authority that he wields right now,

164
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: is if Joe Biden takes down Donald Trump. And we're

165
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: going to allow him with a clear incentive structure on

166
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: his own job predicated on Trump going down to conduct

167
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: this investigation. And that doesn't even consider potentially his own

168
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: motivations personally, which are he may well have been radicalized

169
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: by the fact that he didn't get to sit on

170
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, which was his lifelong dream, and then

171
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: Donald Trump won the presidency and Merritt Garland's nomination by

172
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: Barack Obama was never acted upon. Do you trust him

173
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: to be an impartial observer of justice when his number

174
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: one brass ring, the thing that he had spent his

175
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: entire career striving for, was to be on the Supreme

176
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: Court and he didn't get it. So as a backup plan,

177
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: he gets to be Attorney General, and you think he's

178
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: going to be fair to Republicans and to Donald Trump

179
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: and investigations. We've never seen anything like this. That's why

180
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 1: the Independent Council exists. Ken Starr investigated Bill Clinton, whether

181
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: or not you agree with it, and I understand why

182
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: Trump was mad about it. Trump's Attorney General Jeffords immediately

183
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: recused himself from Russia because he said, I can't conduct

184
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: an impartial investigation. That's how we got the Mueller report.

185
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: That's how we got the Robert Mueller in investigation. This

186
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: has been commonplace for years, the idea that the Justice Department,

187
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: when it is directly involved through the presidency, in the

188
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: investigations that it is undertaking, cannot conduct an impartial investigation.

189
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: So how in the world is every Republican not beating

190
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: the drum that Merritt Garland has to recuse himself here?

191
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: How in the world is anyone with a functional brain

192
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: who has a legal background, and I'd like to put

193
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: myself in that category not also recognizing this clear and

194
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: present conflict which demands recusal from Merrick Garland, who is

195
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: a biased without precedent Already this investigation itself to raid

196
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 1: a former president is unheard of. But how in the

197
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: world are we letting him personally approve any decisions made

198
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: associated with this investigation. These are big questions that aren't

199
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: being asked, that isn't being discussed by anyone out there,

200
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 1: and you should be asking yourself why is that? Why

201
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: are Republicans like Mitch McConnell leading the Senate not coming

202
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: out and saying, hey, you know what, let's go ahead

203
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: and ask Merrick Garland at a minimum to recuse himself.

204
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: Why is this not one of the top arguments right

205
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: now in all of America? Why are you just hearing

206
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: it right now from me? It's crazy, It's banana Republic,

207
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: It's third world dictator level bs. We shouldn't be standing

208
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: for it. I'm going to continue to break down more,

209
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: tell you more significant details about this investigation, why it matter,

210
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: It's gonna be where my lawyer had a lot or

211
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: as we continue throughout the Friday edition of the program.

212
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: But I want to tell you right now, Look, business owners,

213
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: there may be a good break coming in your future.

214
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: If your business has five or more employees and made

215
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: it through COVID, you could be eligible to receive a

216
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: payroll tax rebate of up to twenty six thousand dollars

217
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: per employees. This is not alone. You don't have to

218
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: pay it back. It's a refund of the taxes you've

219
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: already paid. The challenge is learning about it, then getting

220
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: your business the refund money you deserve. You need to

234
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: You just heard me make I think a pretty compelling

235
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: argument for why Merrick Garland should have to recuse himself

236
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: from all investigations surrounding Donald Trump, given that he has

237
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: now admitted that he's personally approving the decisions that are

238
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: being made in this investigation. He's clearly biased. I want

239
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: to talk now and give you a heads up about

240
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: a story that is starting to spread. I touched on

241
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: it in the open. The Washington Post is arguing that

242
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: this was a necessary raid because there were nuclear documents

243
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: classified that were being kept inside of Mara Lago. Now,

244
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: this is a pretty significant shift from the initial story

245
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: that they told us, which was this was a National

246
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: Archives level investigation and that it was predicated on the

247
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: idea that the National Archives needed to get back some

248
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: of the documents that had been under Trump's purview when

249
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: he was president, and that some of those were confidential

250
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,239
Speaker 1: and they need to be back. Well, now, suddenly maybe

251
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: I would submit it because of all the criticism they're getting.

252
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: They're saying, no, no, no, this was of the utmost importance.

253
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: We had to go get these documents dealing with nuclear

254
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: armament because of security issues and how important they were.

255
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: But if that's true, why did they wait eighteen months

256
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: after Donald Trump left the White House to suddenly need

257
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: to stage a rade. Somebody might say, well, they didn't

258
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: know that he had those documents. Well, shouldn't the government

259
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: know if there are important confidential documents that are missing

260
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 1: before we get eighteen months down, And shouldn't they have

261
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: found those documents when they visited and were allowed to

262
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: have access to everything in June at Mara Lago. This

263
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: does not add up. And I'm going to continue to

264
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: go after the Washington Post when we come back, because

265
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 1: democracy dies in darkness. It also dies when the Washington

266
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 1: Post is doing reporting these days. Have you ever had

267

Speaker 1: Some good news out there. There is such a demand

285
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: for truth insanity in an insane world that our social

286
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 1: accounts are skyrocketing in popularity, in particular our truth Social

291
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: growth in truth Social is really very impressive, and you

292
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 1: can find me there at Clay Travis, you can find

293
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: at buck Sexton there. I'm going to be posting more

294
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: and more there as the overall dynamic in terms of

295
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: number of people interacting and everything else continues to skyrocket.

296
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: So I mentioned that I was going to go after

297
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: the Washington Post here, and I do think that is

298
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,719
Speaker 1: a big part of the story right now surrounding the

299
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: Trump Mara Lago raid that was personally approved by Merrick Garland,

300
00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 1: who should should have to step back and recuse himself

301
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: from any investigation of Donald Trump. If there was actually

302
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: any truth and justice in our justice department right now,

303
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: that would be necessary. But what's interesting about the Washington

304
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: Post is how much they've gotten wrong. And I think

305
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: we've got a boy who cries Wolf scenario really in

306
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: play when it comes to the Washington Post, MSNBC, CNN,

307
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: and certainly the New York Times. When you've gotten everything wrong,

308
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: just run through the list, and this is a good

309
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: argument that I would like for you to put in

310
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: your back pocket and use for your persuadable friends who

311
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: may be suffering from some tinge of Trump derangement syndrome.

312
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 1: Think about all the things that those outlets that I

313
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: just ran through have gotten wrong about Donald Trump. First

314
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: of all, Russia collusion one hundred percent a lie, all

315
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: of it made up. The years telling you it was

316
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: going to bring down Trump was all made up. Remember

317
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: the Steel Dossier, the idea of the Golden Showers, the

318
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: idea of what Trump did in Russia, and all the

319
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: compromising info that Russia had on Trump. The Steel Dossier

320
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: was one hundred percent made up. But Russia paying bounties

321
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: on US soldiers in Afghanistan. It's not appeared to be true.

322
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: Remember Trump in the wake of Charlottesville, they tried to

323
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: tell you he called neo Nazis very fine people. That's

324
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of why if you go look at

325
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: the transcript. How about when they tried to get you

326
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 1: with the idea that Trump said you needed to drink

327
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: or inject bleach to fight COVID not true. The tear

328
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: gas getting fired outside in Lafayette Park to clear off

329
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: the protesters so Trump could walk out with a Bible

330
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: for the photo op, that's not true. They told you

331
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: that Hunter's laptop was all disinformation, and they wouldn't even

332
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: allow the New York host Twitter account to exist. That's

333
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: all been proven to actually be true. They told you

334
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: that January sixth was an insurrection and an attempt to

335
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: overthrow the government, and that they had killed many different

336
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: police officers, all untrue. Ashley Babbott was the only person

337
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: who died there. And then, of course they told you

338
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: that Trump choked a Secret Service agent and tried to

339
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 1: grab the steering wheel of his Secret Service vehicle. If

340
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: you had heard all of that and it had all

341
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: been proven to be untrue all about Donald Trump. The

342
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: question that I would ask you, maybe the media is

343
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: just incompetent and they just get everything wrong. But if

344
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: almost all of that had come from anonymous sources, would

345
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: you start asking whether those anonymous sources might be telling

346
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: you the truth? And let me ask you this, and

347
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: this is what I want you to put in your

348
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: back pocket, and I want you to deploy in discussions

349
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: with your friends, your family, some of whom might be reasonable.

350
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: If the media just got all those things wrong, which

351
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: they did, and I just ran through with you, how

352
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: much did they get wrong that benefited Trump? If there

353
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: wasn't major bias at play, wouldn't there occasionally be a

354
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 1: story in the Washington Post or the New York Times

355
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: or CNN or MSNBC that was a hundred percent wrong

356
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: but made Donald Trump sound better? That story hasn't existed

357
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: in seven years. Just think about it. There's never been

358
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: a story. Hey, there was a little kid and he

359
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: was starting to have, you know, like an asthma attack,

360
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: and Trump saw him in the crowd, and he rushed

361
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: his Secret Service agent over and they said, aimed that

362
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: little kid's life. And if Donald Trump hadn't been doing

363
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: his rally and hadn't pointed out that kid, he would

364
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: have died. And then later it comes out that that

365
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: story wasn't true at all, but it was a positive

366
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: story about Trump. There hasn't been any story at all.

367
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 1: Trump was out driving and his beast vehicle and he

368
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: noticed that there was a dog on the side of

369
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: the road that had had puppies and the dog was

370
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: in danger of getting hit by a car. And he

371
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: stopped his motorcade and he said, let's save those puppies

372
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: and get that dog out of danger. And then it

373
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: comes out that it's not true. Those stories have never happened.

374
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: And I would submit to you that there are all

375
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: sorts of superpod Like every time Joe Biden goes and

376
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 1: gets a new ice cream flavor, we hear about it. Oh,

377
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: look look at Joe Biden, man of the people. He

378
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: goes and got he got a new ice cream flap.

379
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: What flavor did you get, Joe? There's all sorts of

380
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: fluff stories out there. How in seven years of covering

381
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: Donald Trump with a fine tooth comb, have The New

382
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, and MSNBC never falsely

383
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: reported something that was positive for Donald Trump. If they

384
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: were just incompetent and they just got things wrong all

385
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: the time, wouldn't they get something wrong in his favor?

386
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: Wouldn't they be like, hey, you know, they raided Mara Lago,

387
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: and you know what they found. They found out that

388
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has been pen pals with a bunch of

389
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: kids all over the country and he's been writing them daily, weekly, monthly.

390
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: And this is just the most beautiful stories that you've

391
00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: ever seen. These were kids who otherwise would have never

392
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: had any hope in life, and they happened to write

393
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 1: Donald Trump asking him to become a penpal, and he

394
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: started doing it and then it turned out out to

395
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: be true. But it was a really positive story about Trump.

396
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: Wouldn't there be one if there wasn't bias in play,

397
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't there be one story that you could point to

398
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: that made Trump look amazing that later ended up being wrong. Instead,

399
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: every single story that we get is a negative one.

400
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 1: So I'm sorry if after hearing that Donald Trump was

401
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: getting prostitutes in Russia to give golden showers, don't look

402
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 1: it up kids all over a bed because he didn't

403
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: like Barack Obama. That I'm skeptical that he took nuclear

404
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: documents Tomorrow Lago, and they've been there for eighteen months

405
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: and the nation is in such danger because of it

406
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 1: that for eighteen months the government couldn't get around to

407
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: trying to recover them, and then they suddenly storm the

408
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: gates of Mara Lago and had to get them immediately.

409
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: I'm sorry if I just don't buy the Washington Post

410
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: telling me that story, because they've been the boy who

411
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: cried wolf for so long, and everything that they've gotten

412
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: wrong has all been in favor of Donald Donald Trump

413
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: being an awful person, nothing positive about Trump at all.

414
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: I just ask you to take that to your friends. So, yeah,

415
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's indisputable they've gotten a lot wrong. Have

416
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: they ever gotten anything wrong that benefited Trump? The answer

417
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: is no. And if you're incompetent on one side and

418
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: not incompetent on the other, that's called bias. And we

419
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: know Democrats love to talk about bias because everything is

420
00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,640
Speaker 1: systemic racism. We got systemic bias against Donald Trump. They

421
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: just pretend that it didn't happen. Rolling on here. I'll

422

Speaker 1: give you the phone number. By the way, it's Friday.

Speaker 1: the stock and commodity markets experience a substantial decline again,

431
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,479
Speaker 1: the financial markets, the housing markets, certainly the crypto markets

432
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,760

Speaker 1: Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging

447
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: out with us as we roll through the Friday edition

448
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: of the program, laying out all of the issues and

449
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: challenges with Merrick Garland personally approving the raid that is

450
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: going on that occurred on Monday at Mara Lago, and

451
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: why you should, I believe, be so incredibly skeptical of

452
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: any justifications that are now being given for that raid

453
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: after the fact. Now, the hope is that we will

454
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: get some information from these warrants which may be released

455
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 1: because both the government and Trump have said they are

456
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: okay with That may not happen until later in the

457
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: day on Friday, after our program is already complete, although

458
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: we got the staff monitoring everything to make sure that

459
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: if those come down, we can react to them instantaneously

460
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: with all of you. A couple of other stories that

461
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: are out there that I think are significant that we

462
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: should also mention. We're following this one in New York,

463
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: Salmon Rushdie was stabbed reportedly on the stage as he

464
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: was preparing to speak. It appears that he is going

465
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: to be okay. There is someone in custody for that attack.

466
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,959
Speaker 1: We may have more details about that attack as it

467
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: progresses throughout the course of the show. I didn't want

468
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: to mention it until we officially knew that he was okay,

469
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: and reports are that he is going to be okay.

470
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: But you will remember Salmon Rushti was the author of

471
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: a book called the Satanic Verses, among many books that

472
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: he has written, and a foughtwa was put out on him,

473
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: I believe in nineteen eighty nine, and so he has

474
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: been living under that the fought that was put on

475
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: him from Iran. This ties in with the current situation

476
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: going on in the United States, frankly, where we have

477
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: recently become aware that Iran was trying to pay to

478
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 1: assassinate two different American officials. I believe John Bolton and

479
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: also Mike Pompeo were those reported targets that Iran was

480
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 1: trying to pay three hundred thousand dollars to someone to

481
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: kill those men. And somehow we're still negotiating with Iran

482
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: over the nuclear accord there despite the fact that they

483
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: are trying to pay to kill American politicians, and maybe

484
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: we'll see whether there's any connection to that fought that

485
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: was put out on Salmon Rushdi back in nineteen eighty

486
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: nine with the attack that happened on him this morning

487
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: as he was preparing to speak in New York. Definitely

488
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: feels like and I want to make this clear, with

489
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: what happened in Cincinnati, where someone who was deranged attacked

490
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 1: the FBI office in Cincinnati. He was killed. I want

491
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: to make this clear to everyone out there, don't go crazy.

492
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: I just laid out the whole hour to open here

493
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: everything that I think is wrong about what the FBI

494
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: and the Department of Justice has done associated with their

495
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: investigation of Mara Lago, with why I believe Merrick Garland,

496
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: who personally approved this raid, should have to recuse himself.

497
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: All of that is very germane to the discussions that

498
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: we are having right now in our country. But do

499
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: not behave in a violent fashion. As frustrated and angry

500
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: as you might be with the FBI, they are looking

501
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: for someone or some people to scapegoat and turn into

502
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: evidence of why they have to be conducting aggressive investigations

503
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: into Trump supporters. They're already doing it over January sixth.

504
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: We're going to talk with Julie Kelly in the next

505
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: hour about the fact that they're still being people held

506
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: in solitary confinement over January sixth, and that they almost

507
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: have not been able to interact with anyone, even attorneys,

508
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: for a year and a half now, and so they

509
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: are looking constantly for people to scapegoat as Trump deplorables

510
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: who can't be trusted. They want to deploy as much

511
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: counter intel against domestic terrorists as they possibly can. Americ

512
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: Garland and Christopher Ray, the director of the FBI and

513
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: the Attorney General, they're putting out statements constantly saying that

514
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: their FBI agents are the greatest and the most fair

515
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: and they would never do anything improper. You and I

516
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 1: know that's not true. They investigated parents who were speaking

517
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 1: out against their kids, wearing masks at school boards, people

518
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: like me as domestic terrorists. And so now you want

519
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: me to believe that the FBI, which we have caught

520
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: in lies associated with the Russia collusion investigation. We caught

521
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: them lying in fis A warrants. When you want me

522
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 1: to believe that this process, this rate of Mara Lago

523
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 1: was not political in any way. When you've previously been

524
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: caught lying in an effort to go after Donald Trump,

525
00:34:55,680 --> 00:35:00,280
Speaker 1: and when you have been investigating parents who spoke out

526
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: at school board meetings, you want me to believe that

527
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: you've got my best interest at heart. I'm sorry. The

528
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: FBI has sold its ability to be considered considered fair

529
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: and impartial. When you got Hunter Biden flying across the

530
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: country to board Air Force one and the FBI has

531
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: had his laptop for over two years, Buck, I think

532
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: Senatoia I saw it earlier hanging out on the beach,

533
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: said maybe Trump should have stored those nuclear documents on

534
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's laptop. They would have been super safe there.

535
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 1: FBI hasn't been able to figure out what's going on

536
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: with Hunter Biden's laptop. They've had it for over two years.

537
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: Multiple felonies. I'm not an expert in FBI investigations, but

538
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 1: just based on what I have seen on Hunter Biden's laptop,

539
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: there's multiple felonies. Well, Marrett Garland comes out and says

540
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: they're going to apply the law evenly and without regard

541
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: for who was involved. And meanwhile, you got Hunter Biden

542
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: flying across the country to board Air Force and go

543
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: on family vacation down in South Carolina. I'm sorry if

544
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: I'm raising maybe a red flag here and saying I

545
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: don't know that I trust the FBI right now to

546
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: be fairly and impartially imparting justice upon this country. We

547
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: will open up phones. I'll take some of your calls.

548
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: One eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two.

549
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: It is open line Friday, as hes been for a

550
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: very long time in these parts, and so we will

551
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: take some of your calls. As we roll into the

552
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,359
Speaker 1: next hour, Julie Kelly is going to join us. We'll

553
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: also be joined in the third hour by doctor Oz.

554
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: We'll have some fun with you, roll you into the weekend.

555
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. Was talking

556
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 1: earlier about how our social media accounts suddenly on fire,

557
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,280
Speaker 1: encourage you to track those down all over the internet,

558
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 1: whether you are on truth Social, whether you're on Rumble,

559
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: whether on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, We're everywhere
