It's 33 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 2: not like you had a Dutch or British or Japanese 34 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 2: you know, natural gas. 35 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: Or energy or whatever Amrican company right like yeah, like 36 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: it's totally normal and above board. And I mean this 37 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: is such a sham from the front. 38 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 2: Biden. Joe Biden was the point man for the Obama 39 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 2: administration in Ukraine at a time when there had been 40 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: you know, the Orange Revolution, and when there had been 41 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 2: years of fighting on the eastern side of it and 42 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: all kinds of graft and corruption, and I mean Ukraine 43 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 2: was a mess. Biden was put in charge by Obama, 44 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: which alone you would think is wow, right, this is 45 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 2: the guy. You're pretty I mean, you've said a million 46 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: times you wouldn't hire him for a single job at OutKick, right, 47 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: Like Biden isn't Biden isn't a guy you would want 48 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 2: in charge of anything. And somehow now he's technically in 49 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 2: charge of the country. But the companies are out of 50 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 2: the countries company located in that we're paying off. The 51 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: bidens come from our biggest adversary who's looking for any 52 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: advantage possible through dollars to us, or two individuals, which 53 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 2: is China and the country that is probably the most 54 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 2: in need of US foreign policy favors Ukraine. Okay, so 55 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: here we go. We get Zlatzchewski was the foreign national 56 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 2: involved in the alleged criminal bribery's scheme detailed the FBI form, 57 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: and referred to Joe Biden as the big guy during 58 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: a conversation several years before the June twenty twenty date 59 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: of the Bureau document. According to the FBI record described 60 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: to the Washington Examiner by sources, Grassley said that according 61 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: to the FD ten twenty three, the foreign national possesses 62 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 2: fifteen audio recordings of phone calls between him and Hunter 63 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: Biden and two audio recordings of phone calls between him 64 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 2: and the then Vice President Joe Biden. A couple things 65 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: before we get into it. I mean Ted Cruz. Just 66 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: Ted Cruz pulled out the howitzers in the Senate yesterday. 67 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a second. But Clay, this 68 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: is the kind of thing where you would stop to say. 69 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 3: Hmmm, why would this corrupt Ukrainian oligarc be recording conversations 70 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 3: with the people that he's just business partners with unless 71 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: he was looking for leverage in case things went bad? 72 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 4: Right? 73 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just to me step one of this buck. 74 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: I would just say to anybody out there listening, is 75 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: there a more shady group that you could go into 76 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: business with than? The answer is probably yes. There may 77 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: be a few more shady, But I'll give you a 78 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: quick story before we play Ted Cruz. I don't think 79 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: I've told you this story. I'm curious what you would 80 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: think about it. When I was doing my sports talk 81 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: radio show, my producer called me one afternoon, that's got 82 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: a really weird call. I said, what called you get? 83 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: He said, I was working out at the gym. My 84 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: phone ring, It's from Rings, It's from a blocked number, 85 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: and it's somebody from the Russian government saying they want 86 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: to invite Clay Travis to come to Moscow to watch 87 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: the election of Vladimir Putin and be able to report 88 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: about how honest it was. They're gonna fly me to Moscow. 89 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: They're gonna put me up in an elite hotel. The 90 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: Russian government has tracked down my producer of my radio show, 91 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: and all of this. I'm just saying, can I just 92 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: how was your how was your trip to Moscow? Yeah, 93 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: I'm just I don't think I've told this story on 94 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: the radio before. And my reaction was the hell, I'm 95 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: gonna get on at even then, like I would like, 96 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: I like to travel, but then I'm gonna go as 97 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: a guest of the Russian government and go to stay 98 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 1: in a hotel in Moscow. Like no, somebody reached out 99 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: to Hunter Biden like that Buck, some random dude in 100 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: Ukraine reached out to Hunter Biden and somehow he ended 101 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: up in this relationship with the Ukrainian interest. My point 102 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: on it is it's super shady. From the moment it begins, 103 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: you know that it is not on the up and up, 104 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: and it is so incredibly shady. 105 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 2: Here's where I think we have to you know, we 106 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: have to think a couple layers into this, or a 107 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: few steps ahead of this. Even if Joe Biden knew 108 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: nothing about this, which I do not believe for one second, 109 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: I think the record shows he did know about Hunter 110 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: getting you know, these payoffs and being the bag man 111 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 2: for the family. The fact that his son would be 112 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 2: compromised in this way. I mean, criminal bribery is something 113 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: you can go to prison for for a long time. 114 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: That would mean And this is why I go back 115 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: to the recorded conversations. There is leverage against the then 116 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 2: vice president's son now president's son. Right, you start thinking about, 117 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: Hold on a second, what kind of game were these 118 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: different interests? We're talking millions of dollars, right. This isn't 119 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 2: even like, oh, we'll pay you, you know, we'll pay 120 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 2: you fifty grand to show up and give a speech. 121 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 2: And it's like, wait, why you want to hear me 122 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,239 Speaker 2: speak in Russia? No, this is millions and millions of dollars. 123 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: And it's all where where there is smoke, there is fire. 124 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 2: There is so much smoke here. It's like a forest 125 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: fire and the FBI is playing games. And this is 126 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: this brings me to Ted Cruz. Yesterday in the Senate 127 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: he had the one of the senior FBI uh, you know, 128 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: like assistant directors or something. One of the senior FBI 129 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 2: guys there, and I want you to hear how this 130 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: exchange goes here play Ted Cruz trying to get some 131 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: answers about this Biden bribery stuff. 132 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 5: The FBI is stonewalling, would. 133 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 6: You, Senator No, one's stonewalling. The ten twenty three just 134 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 6: said you refused to add response to his subpoena answer question. 135 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 6: The pertinent information is there, and I reject your assertion 136 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,679 Speaker 6: that the answer my question. I just answer your question. 137 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 5: Okay, So, yes, you have a ten twenty three. Do 138 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 5: you have the seventeen recordings? 139 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: Yes or no. 140 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 6: I'm not going to get further into this. 141 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: So you're stonewalling. 142 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 5: You can't say I'm not refusing to answer your question, 143 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 5: but I won't answer your question. 144 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 6: I'm going to answer within the parameters that we operate in. 145 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 5: That's the problem the FBI has right now and unlimited 146 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 5: hubris that you believe you are unaccountable. You don't believe 147 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 5: you're accountable to the United States Congress and you don't 148 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 5: believe you're accountable to the American people. 149 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: So that's Deputy FBI director a body and Clay A 150 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: few things. One thing for a moment, dude, this informant 151 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: had been good for a long time before. If there 152 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: are recordings of this, and the FBI knows they exist, 153 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: or heaven forbid, had access to them, maybe even got 154 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: them at some point, and this was never followed up 155 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: on the FBI has and we're talking about tear it 156 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: down to the studs. You know, the whole place is 157 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: is going to have to get a really serious redo. 158 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 2: And I think so that's one part of it. But 159 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: then also just the we talk about the double standard 160 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: in prosecution, right, that's what we talked about the first 161 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: hour of the show. There's double standard Hillary versus Trump. 162 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: But what we also see here is a double standard 163 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 2: in just even investigation by federal resources. 164 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: Right. 165 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 2: George Papadopoulos sits down in London, you know, says I 166 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: heard a thing about a guy on the internet or something. 167 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: FBI goes to the mat all In, sets up you know, 168 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: full field investigation on him, then gets Faiza on Carter page. 169 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: I mean, they go crazy with it. 170 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 2: The sitting vice president is being accused of being on 171 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: tape effectively figuring out a bribe. This should be the 172 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: kind of thing this makes FBI careers. Man, this should 173 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: be the absolute top priority. If we found out they 174 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 2: sat on it, meaning it doesn't even mean it has 175 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: to be totally true, but they didn't do anything shows 176 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 2: you to fix his absolutely in. 177 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: And also they didn't leak it. That's where I come back, Buck. 178 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 1: All of these people who are supposedly so upset about 179 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: the documents that Trump has in the media, They've made 180 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: a living off of illegally leaked documents classified in nature 181 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: that they typically don't get the opportunity to see. They've 182 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: won Pulletzer prizes based on reporting, certainly, even if it's 183 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: based on lies like we saw with Russia collusion, and 184 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: that is also indicative, Buck, of a corrupt system, because 185 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: how is it that we don't find out, I mean, 186 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: this is a big deal. If there are fifteen recorded 187 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: phone calls between Hunter Biden and a Beisma executive, two 188 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: of which involved Joe Biden when he claimed that he 189 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: had no relationship whatsoever with his son's business dealings, which 190 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: we know are a lie, and the FBI has potentially 191 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: had access to them or known of the potential existence 192 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: of these seventeen recordings for years. To me, Buck, it 193 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: ties in in a big way with the way that 194 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: the FBI responded to the laptop, because remember, they knew 195 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: the laptop was real, they had had it since December 196 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen. And what did they do when you 197 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: look at the Twitter files they held Aspen institutes where 198 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: they actually preceded the idea that this was Russian disinformation 199 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: and that there might be a release of a alleged 200 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop as part of the prelude to the 201 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty election, which they knew about because they had 202 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani under surveillance. And I'm saying all this, Buck, 203 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: and I feel, you know, the meme of the guy 204 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: standing in front of the wall with like all the 205 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: different you know, connections that he's drawing. There's so much 206 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: here that when you say it out loud, it makes 207 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: you sound like a crazy person. You sound like a 208 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: wild conspiracy theorist. But it's impossible to draw any other 209 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: conclusion other than the FBI covered up and continues to 210 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: cover up the Biden crime family. So it makes me wonder, wow, like, 211 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: what is the impetus under which this would occur? You 212 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: were in you were encounter intel. Doesn't this all strike 213 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: you as incredibly strange that the FBI, Like it almost 214 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: feels like somebody's got something on the FBI right. 215 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 2: That the Democrat Party is the party of the state, 216 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: the big s state, and the fourth branch of government, 217 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: the unelected bureaucracy is just look at the donations to 218 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton. I can't think of I don't know offhand 219 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: the donations to Joe Biden. Hillary Clinton got something like 220 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: ninety ninety five percent of civil service donations from the 221 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 2: federal government. So the federal government is effectively an Oregon. 222 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 2: Now at the Democrat Party, the federal bureaucracy, and the 223 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: kind of people who rise at the their FBI. Aiden's 224 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 2: listening to this right now, who are former Marines, former army. 225 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 2: You know, they're just trying to put bad guys away. 226 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: They're trying to do their job. They want no part 227 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 2: of any of this, and they're great. And that's what 228 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 2: we all think of, or would like to think of 229 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 2: when we think of the FBI. But the people that 230 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 2: rise to the very top are the comys. Comy was 231 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 2: a lawyer, he's a prosecutor. He was never even really 232 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: an FBI guy, like an FBI agent, But he just 233 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 2: snaked his way through these bureaucracies to the top because 234 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: he knew how to play the game and he knew 235 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: which party was the party of the government apparatus. Trump 236 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: is a threat to that. Trump is a threat to 237 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 2: those people. Trump is a threat to everybody who thinks 238 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 2: that being senior in a federal executive agency means that 239 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 2: you're unaccountable. You don't have to do things the way 240 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: that you said you would because you know better than 241 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: the people, you know better than the laws. So they 242 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 2: hate Trump. I think that part of it is clear. 243 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: You've seen that from within the FBI senior ranks. Again, 244 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: I'm talking about the people calling the shots here, the 245 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: political appointees at some of these places. So that's a big, 246 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 2: a big aspect of it for me, and I sit 247 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: here and I just say, the most fundamental questions sometimes 248 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 2: are the most important. And with the bidens, it's what 249 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 2: was the money for? You know, you talk about you 250 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: mentioned mad men, right, that's what the money's for? What 251 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 2: was the money for the millions of dollars to Hunter 252 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: Biden for not yet even determined business ventures. That is 253 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: called a bribe. The DOJ has known about this for 254 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 2: years and somehow to it was so important. They're running 255 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: out the clock on the Statute of Limitations on this, 256 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: They're running out the clock on the Statute on wire fraud, 257 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: on tax evasion. 258 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 3: That's oh, we're just. 259 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: Thinking it through. 260 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: Well, we're gonna see how it goes and then eventually 261 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: be oh man, we were about to were We believe 262 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 2: in justice, Klay, We're the DOJ. We're gonna crush Hunter 263 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: Biden on these issues because it's what justice demands. But 264 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 2: we believe in the law and the Statute of Limitations. 265 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: We just couldn't get it together in time. And they're 266 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 2: gonna look at people and they're gonna tell them that's 267 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 2: what happened. That's what I see coming at least that's 268 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 2: how I think this goes down, which brings us again 269 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 2: to this is what's going on in the com. 270 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: We need those tapes, if they exist. 271 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 3: We have to know we need him. 272 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: And that's why I think Ted Cruz wasn't holding back 273 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,359 Speaker 2: at all in that one. I think people recognize the stakes. 274 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 3: Here, all right. 275 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: Look, a young mom heard our preborn AD and the 276 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,479 Speaker 2: lives of her family changed dramatically. She'd kept her pregnancy 277 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: a secret from her parents and made an appointment at 278 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: an abortion clinic. Days before the appointment, she heard the 279 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: preborn AD and learned that a baby's heartbeat is detectable 280 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: just weeks after conception. She couldn't get the message out 281 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: of her mind. The day came and she arrived in 282 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 2: the parking lot of the abortion clinic. She sat there 283 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 2: thinking again about the powerful message. She was terrified and 284 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 2: broke down and called her mom. She told her mom, 285 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 2: I'm pregnant, I have an appointment right now for an abortion, 286 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 2: and I can't do it. Please come get me together. 287 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: We helped rescue this precious baby and this mother from 288 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: the pain of an otherwise forever decision, and we continue 289 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 2: praying for this brave young woman today.

There's 300 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: all these new informants that are coming out. I click 301 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: on every one of these stories. I really I am 302 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: a believer. I'm a believer in the UFO phenomenon, ghosts, 303 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: sum all in on. I am willing to believe that 304 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: we know a fraction of what's actually going on in 305 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: any given day. Go back study history, Buck, One hundred 306 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: years ago, everybody thought they knew everything. Now we go 307 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: read what they thought, and you know, we think they're crazy. 308 00:16:58,640 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: I don't. I think it would be wild if we 309 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: in a hundred years think that what we believe will 310 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: also be crazy.

We have former Speaker 354 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 2: of the House Nuke Gingrish with us now. He's got 355 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 2: a new book out, March to Majority tells the story 356 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: of winning the first Republican majority in forty years back 357 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety four and how Congress and Gingrich became 358 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 2: the fiftieth Speaker of the House. Speaker Gingrich, good to 359 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 2: have you on, sir. Hello, I'm not hearing him, Clay, 360 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 2: are you hearing him? 361 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: No, I'm not, So we'll see if we can get 362 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: him up, because they told us that he's been there 363 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: for fifteen minutes waiting to come on, So this would 364 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: be a disappointment. But the situation we were just talking 365 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: about this off air, Buck while we wait for him 366 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: to come back up. One of the things that gets 367 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,719 Speaker 1: me super fired up about the coverage surrounding these charges 368 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: that have been brought against Trump is they continue to argue, 369 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: Buck that Merrick Garland is just the Attorney General of 370 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: the United States making decisions here, right. And the reality 371 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: is anybody who's ever read the Independent Council Statute knows 372 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: Jack Smith comes and says, hey, can I prosecute? And 373 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: Mayor Garland has to signed off on it, which I 374 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: bet new Gingrich knows well. 375 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 2: Speaker Gingrich, you're with us, sir. 376 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 4: No, I'm with you, but I can't Can you hear me? 377 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we call the whole country count I think we 378 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: can all hear you. We wanted to first start. We 379 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 2: mentioned your book March the Majority. We can ask you 380 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 2: about that in a moment, but first, well, what do 381 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 2: you want to tell everybody about your thoughts on the 382 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 2: week that the president faces a federal indictment. Here, it's 383 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 2: come down with what thirty seven counts? What do you 384 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: want to tell everybody about it? 385 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 4: That the whole thing is a rig deal, that it 386 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 4: is bizarre and crazy that the Democrats are now using 387 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 4: the court system against a political opponent, something which has 388 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 4: never been done American history, and that all it's going 389 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 4: to do is make Trump stronger because people are sick 390 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 4: of the system being manipulated. And it's very clear. I mean, 391 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 4: you have a New York prosecutor with a totally phony charge, 392 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 4: you have an Atlanta prosecutor with a totally phony charge. 393 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 4: You now have the Department of Justice in Miami, and 394 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 4: you have a Department of Justice effort underway in the 395 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 4: debortion in d C. Which, by the way, is an 396 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 4: area where Donald Trump got five percent of the vote. Now, 397 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 4: what do you think of the odds that Donald Trump's 398 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 4: going to get a fair trial in the District of 399 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 4: Columbia when nineteen out of twenty people voted against him. 400 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 4: This is a rig deal by a corrupt administration, which 401 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 4: I think we're going to discover more and more about 402 00:21:52,960 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 4: their ties to China, to Ukraine, to Russia and to Kazakhstan, 403 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 4: and so you've got an amazing depth of corruption. Ten 404 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 4: of the people on the Biden team, Secretary of State, 405 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 4: and nine people in the White House were being paid 406 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 4: by the University of Pennsylvania, which was getting millions of 407 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 4: dollars from the Chinese communists, and the whole thing, frankly stinks. 408 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 4: So I start with the idea anybody who takes these 409 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 4: things seriously misunderstands the historic moment we're in. We're seeing 410 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 4: something we've never seen in American history, and that is 411 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 4: the deliberate political prosecution of a competitor at the level 412 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 4: of the presidency. And I think it's unbelievably dangerous, and 413 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 4: I think that Merrick Garland and President Biden are doing 414 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 4: terrible things to the American system. 415 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House, New Gingrich with a former Speaker 416 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: of the House, You were also formerly, if I'm not mistaken, 417 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: a history professor, and in the first hour of this program, 418 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: Buck and I were talking about the historical record of 419 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: this Civil War and the way that the country was 420 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: brought back together based on the way that the Republican Party. 421 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: And Andrew Johnson was a Democrat at the time, but 422 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: the way that they brought the country back together. When 423 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: you look at this on a historical nature, Joe Biden 424 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: came into office and said, I'm here to unify. I'm 425 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: here to restore a sense of decorum and honesty to 426 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 1: the American populace. Can you think of anything that is 427 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: more destructive to American unity than what Joe Biden is 428 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: allowing to happen? And in a historical context, even back 429 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: to the Civil War, can you think of anything like 430 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: what we're seeing today. 431 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 4: No, And first of all, it's not what he's allowing 432 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 4: to happen. He's personally gone out and made speeches that 433 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 4: are visc partisan, that in effect accused fellow Americans of 434 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 4: being unpatriotic, even that smear his opponents. So let mus 435 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 4: be clear. This is not Joe Biden innocently presiding over 436 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 4: some nasty people. This is President Biden himself, who I 437 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 4: think has a lot to answer for in terms of 438 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 4: the corruption and his relationship with his son and his brother, 439 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 4: and the money they've gotten from foreign governments. And I 440 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 4: think they're going to go down in history as probably 441 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 4: the most scandal ridden administration in American history. And I 442 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: think that's saying a lot. In addition, you know, you 443 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 4: look at this stuff. If you were to take the 444 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 4: deliberately one sided partisan things they've been doing, they're clearly 445 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 4: dividing the country. Now what's weird about it is the 446 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 4: side they're gambling on is about twenty or twenty five 447 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 4: percent of the country. And I think that in the 448 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 4: long run they're going to lose, and lose decisively. But 449 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 4: they have the power of the government, the power of 450 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 4: the FBI. The amount of weight they're bringing to bear 451 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 4: is pretty scary, frankly. And you know, if you have 452 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 4: the government on your side and you're willing to use it, 453 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 4: you can really drive people out of office. You can 454 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 4: put people in jail. I've had Republican lawyers tell me 455 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 4: that they're frankly afraid to admit that they're Republican because 456 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 4: they think that there's going to be a real effort 457 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 4: to drive them out of business. This is the most 458 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 4: aggressively hostile effort to reshape America that we've seen, certainly 459 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 4: in my lifetime, and I think it's a grave danger 460 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 4: to the country. 461 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 2: Speaking to a former Speaker of the House, new Gangrich, 462 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: He's got a book march to the majority. Speaker. I 463 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: know it's very difficult to mister speaker. I know it's 464 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 2: very difficult to predict the future. No one can predict 465 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 2: the future. Where do you see this going though? I mean, 466 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: how do you see this play out? You understand the 467 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,959 Speaker 2: ins and outs of American politics as well as anybody. 468 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 2: I know, this is uncharted territory. What do you see happening? 469 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 4: I suspect that despite every effort to cheat by the left, 470 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 4: the Trump will win re election by a huge margin, 471 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 4: that he will carry in a majority in the Senate, 472 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 4: and they will increase the majority in the House. I mean, 473 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 4: I don't think that you can lie to the American 474 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 4: people fail to deliver, and they fail deliver in every front. 475 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 4: The inflation rate is terrible. They have weakened the country. 476 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 4: I think they're the Chinese communists favorite president. And I 477 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 4: think it's amazing the number of things that Biden has 478 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 4: done that strengthen and weak in America. And so I 479 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 4: think this is going to be a period of you know, 480 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 4: I think of retribution, if you will, from the American people. 481 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't think they're going to sit by passively. 482 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 4: And I think as more people learn about how clearly 483 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 4: the Bidens were involved in corruption and corruption involving foreign 484 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 4: governments and foreign dictatorships. I think that the Democratic Party 485 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 4: is going to face a genuine crisis, and it's not 486 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 4: just at at Biden's level. You look at what the 487 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 4: governor of Michigan has been doing with the Chinese Communists 488 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 4: to get them to come and build a huge battery 489 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 4: facility in China in Michigan. I mean this kind of thing. 490 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 4: I think, basically offering the Chinese Communists every opportunity to 491 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 4: dominate the United States is pretty weird. 492 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: If you live in Southwest Florida, you'd like to see 493 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: Speaker new Gingrich alive and in person. He's hosting a 494 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: book signing tonight Seed to Table in Naples from four 495 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: to six.

I mean, I certainly don't believe 502 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 4: that it's impossible. 503 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: So you're on team Clay here.

Let me just say, I 513 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 4: don't see how you can automatically say they don't exist. 514 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 2: My position, mister speaker, is just that there is no 515 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: proof yet that they do.

I believe this is cut one. 571 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 5: Nicki Haley said she'd be inclined to pardon the former 572 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 5: president if he's convicted. 573 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 2: Nicki Haley now says she probably pardoned Trump if she's 574 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: elected president. 575 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: Nikki Haley pressed today about a possible pardon if he 576 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: was convicted. 577 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 5: Nikki Haley was on the radio yesterday and she said, 578 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 5: you know, when you think about it, I'm kind of 579 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 5: inclined to pardon as well. 580 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: Nikki Haley, she said she would pardon him. 581 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 3: She'd also consider a pardon. 582 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 4: She may pardon him. 583 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 3: Nicki Haley and to Ktay, I think I'm going to pardon. 584 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 4: Nikki Haley also saying today that she would pardon Trump. 585 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 3: Nikki Haley said today she would be inclined to pardon Trump. 586 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: Even Nikki Haley also said even if he's convicted, that 587 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: she would pardon him. 588 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 2: Nicki Haley also she's going straight to the pardon, right, 589 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: She's racing all the way ahead. 590 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: To the pardon. First of all, that's everywhere that was yesterday. 591 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: For you guys listening, we'll ask Mike Pens the same 592 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: question because I think it's probably the single most important 593 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: question that a Republican running for president, given the circumstances 594 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: right now, should answer. But it goes to the heart 595 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: of this question, I think, which is out there. Let 596 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: me hold on, let me play this for you too. Buck, 597 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: did you hear our good friend Joe Scarborough? Because I 598 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: think we need to fire back at Joe Scarborough in 599 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: the argument here he's making. He says, oh, nobody's saying 600 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: Trump is innocent before we even play this audio. I 601 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: think this is really important. I don't even think, and 602 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: I think you would agree with me, Buck, that we 603 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: need to although as a lawyer I will make an 604 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: argument that he is innocent in the next hour for 605 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: you guys. But I don't even think we need to 606 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: go to the innocence question because to me, by far, 607 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: the bigger question is is this a significant enough crime 608 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: to need to upset two hundred and forty years of 609 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: American jurisprudence in order to bring And the answer. 610 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 2: To that to me is easy, and it's no the 611 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: power to prosecute is the power to destroy. And the 612 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: single most important decision that a prosecutor makes is whether 613 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: or not to bring the charge in the first place, 614 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 2: because the indictment alone comes with massive cost to the accused, financial, reputational, 615 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 2: psychological like this, When the federal government has you in 616 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: their sights, there better be a damn good reason for it. 617 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 2: And that's what we've been arguing this whole time, is 618 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 2: that the stuff that they're talking about, under the circumstances 619 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: should not arise. It does not rise to the level 620 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 2: of it's worth it to go for it on this, 621 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 2: even though it's going to throw the political system into disarray. 622 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 2: And you know you brought They keep saying, oh, they're 623 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 2: going jumping right ahead of the part in Well, of course, 624 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 2: remember we had the Nixon which they always made a 625 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 2: bigger deal out of what Nixon did than they should have. 626 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 2: But put that aside. You know, Nixon got pardoned by Ford. 627 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 2: You're sitting here like, yeah, of course, because the country 628 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 2: needed to heal and move forward. That was the whole idea. 629 00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 2: And I know that people are like, well, Trump's gonna 630 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: win and this isn't going to be an issue great. 631 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 2: So why the Libs so freaked out about it? Well, 632 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 2: because they're worry Trump might win and this may not 633 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 2: be an issue. Well, and I think again, if Trump wins, 634 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 2: he'll certainly pardon himself. But again, we're in the middle 635 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 2: of the primary season right now and people are running 636 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 2: to try to beat Trump, and so I think this 637 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 2: is a big part of the discussion. I know this 638 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 2: is a serious issue, but just for a second, wouldn't 639 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 2: Trump winning the election and pardoning himself be the most 640 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 2: trumpy move in the history of all things Trump? 641 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 4: Right? 642 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 2: I mean, that would be the Trumpiest thing ever if 643 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 2: he won the election, which he very well might, pardons himself. 644 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 2: And the question I didn't get to ask a Newt 645 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: Gingrich and you know, I think it's one we're gonna 646 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: have to ponder. Is it's early, I understand, But is 647 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 2: the answer to this that there needs to be a 648 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 2: special counsel appointed by Donald Trump to look into Hunter 649 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 2: Biden and Biden family. I don't see how, given that 650 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 2: the rubicon has been crossed, if you can't get to 651 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: a mutually assured political destruction on this issue, I don't 652 00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 2: know how we get back to any sense of normal. 653 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 2: There have to be consequences for the other side. 654 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: No doubt.
