Our two of Clay and Buckets going 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 1: right now. We are minutes away from Attorney General Garland. 4 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,239 Speaker 1: Eric Garland's going to be addressing the country here in 5 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: just a few minutes. We'll be rolling on that. We'll 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: tell you what he says, but first we are joined 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: by the Governor of Texas, Governor Greg Abbott. Governor, appreciate 8 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 1: you making the time for as sir, Thanks for calling in. 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: Great to be back with you guys again. So if 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: you would, sir, just tell us Biden made his trip 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: to the border. He laid out a whole bunch of 12 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: things that he says they're doing to address the issue. 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: Is anything that the Biden administration saying they will do 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: going to make a major or even perceivable difference in 15 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: your state of Texas when it comes to the lawlessness 16 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: and chaos at the southern border. Not at all. I 17 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: mean they they claim to be trying to work out 18 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: some type of arrangement for a small number of people 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: who come from four different countries, But the fact of 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: the matter is, we have people coming from more than 21 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty different countries. But also anytime the 22 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: president or the federal government makes any type of deal 23 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: saying well, we're going to let these people in, all 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: that really does is entice even more people from across 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: the entire world to get in, because the attitude of 26 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: other people is, well, God should people from this, that 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: and the other country get to get in? If we 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: barn storm the country, that will start allowing us in. 29 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: And if the migrats aren't thinking that, I'll tell you 30 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: who is. The cartels who bring the migrats across the 31 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: border are thinking that. Bottom line is what Biden is 32 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: planning and where they articulating in This plan will do 33 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: nothing to stop illegal immigration. You gave Joe Biden Greg Abbott, 34 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: governor of Texas with us right now a letter when 35 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: he arrived in your state to officially walk along the 36 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: border a little bit al Paso. Do you get the sense, 37 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: based on your limited interaction with him, that Joe Biden 38 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: himself even has any clue what's really going on? In 39 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: other words, who would be in your mind really making 40 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: decisions as it pertains to the border. We know Kamala 41 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: Harris is supposedly the borders are. She wasn't there she 42 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: hasn't made any trips. Who's dictating policy in your mind 43 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: inside the Biden White House? Well, else a pretty good question. 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: It's a question people have asked for two years now. 45 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: But who really is making decisions in the White House. 46 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: I can tell you. As it concerns the border, I 47 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: have no clue. But I will also tell you, and 48 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: that is the letter that I handed the President. I 49 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: opened by saying, listen, mister President, you said that you 50 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: wanted to work with Republicans on the border issue, and I, 51 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: as a Republican, want to work with you. I'm giving 52 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: you this letter. And in this letter it has five 53 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: policy issues that you can take right now. You say 54 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: you want to pass legislation. No legislation needs to be 55 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: passed to do exactly what I'm telling you, And if 56 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: you take these five steps, you will be able to 57 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: secure the border. We're speaking to Governor Greg Abbott of Texas. 58 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: Give us a sense, Governor of the escalation in human 59 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: trafficking FENTONEL and overall Mexican drug cartel activity that is 60 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: affecting your state and the rise in that over the 61 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: last couple of years. In particular, Well, you used a 62 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: good phrase there in the rise of this over the 63 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: last couple of years, because it's so important for everyone 64 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: to remember that it was just two and a half 65 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: years ago we had the lowest border crossings in the 66 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: past three or four decades, and that's because of the 67 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: very simple policies that President Trump put in place. When 68 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: Joe Biden came to the office, he eliminated all of 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: those four policies, and as a result, this past year 70 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: we had the highest number of people crossing the border 71 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: legally ever. We had just in this past year Loan 72 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: about the same population as the cd of Houston, Texas 73 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: come across the border in one single year. One of 74 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: the consequences is one thing that you made reference to, 75 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: and that is the fentanyl. Putting aside the federal government 76 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: and whatever they may seize, if you look at just 77 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: what Texas law enforcement has seized, we have seized enough 78 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: fentanyl to kill every man, woman, and child in the 79 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: entire country. Let me say this differently, if we did 80 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: not have Texas law enforcement and our National Guard on 81 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: the border as we speak right now, enough fentanyl would 82 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: have evaded boy of patrol, evaded detection, evaded apprehension, and 83 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: would be criss crossing the United States as we speak, 84 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: and dangering the population of the entire country. Governor Abbot, 85 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: we talked about this, and I think it's a big 86 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: stat and it's a big important point. I want you 87 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: to be able to make it for our audience nationwide. 88 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: Here the Biden administration and says they inherited a disaster 89 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 1: of a border policy from Donald Trump. Yet when I 90 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: look at the data, there were more people who illegally 91 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: crossed the border in twenty twenty two than in all 92 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: four years of the Trump presidency combined. How much of 93 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: a lie you kind of hinted at this in response 94 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: to Buck's question there, But how much of a lie 95 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: is it for the Biden administration, Karine Jean Pierre, everybody 96 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: associated with this perspective to be saying the reason why 97 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: the border is a mess is because we inherited a mess. 98 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: So there are two lies that they are perpetuating. First 99 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: about what you're talking about, The Biding administrassion inherited the 100 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: most secure border than any president in decades, and it 101 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: is because Trump put into place the Tileiforta two policy, 102 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: the remain of Mexico policy, he ended catching release, and 103 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: he built the border wall, and maybe more prolifically, he 104 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: just sent a message that if you're going to try 105 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: to come to the United States, you better do so legally. Legally. 106 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: Bottom line is Biden inherited a effective border security plan. 107 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: All he had to do was to keep it in place. 108 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: But talk about lies. You know, the spokesperson for Joe Biden, 109 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: she gets up there on the podium and she says 110 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: the border secure. She says, no one is walking across 111 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: just walking across the border. She's clueless about what actually 112 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: is happening. So either they're lying about it or they 113 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: don't have a clue about it. Either way is deadly 114 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: dangerous for our country. Speaking Governor Greg Abbott of Texas, Governor, 115 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: you know, we've been talking a lot about the move 116 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: from high tax, high regulation, COVID lockdown blue states into 117 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: red states like Florida, Tennessee, and of course Texas. What 118 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: has that been like in the last year or so 119 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: for your state and what are you doing to entice 120 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: even more people to change it up and go live 121 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: in the great state of Texas. So, for one, Texas 122 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: once again led in all the different metrics, whether it 123 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: be the U haul test or whatever the case. May 124 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: be and ranking number one for the most people moving 125 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: into our state. And we're not doing anything per se 126 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: to purposefully attract these people to come to our state. 127 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: It's just the nature of the policies that we have 128 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: in place, such as no income tax, no corporate income tax, 129 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: a very reasonable regulatory system, a government that moves at 130 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: the speed of business, actually a government that embraces business 131 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: as opposed to try to leach off of business. And 132 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: I'll tell you another consequence of this, and that is, 133 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: as reported this week, California, because of their policies, they 134 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: have a twenty four billion dollar budget deficit taxes. Because 135 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: of our policies, we have a thirty three billion dollar 136 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: budget surplus, the large just budget surplus in the history 137 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: of Texas, and I think the largest budget surplus of 138 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: any state in the country. Governor Abbott, I know we're 139 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: talking about Texas related specifically, but you have a background. 140 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: You're a lawyer. Fellow Vanderbilt law grad by the way, 141 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: great fantastic law school for anybody out there thinking about going. 142 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: Both the Governor and I are happy to be grads. 143 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: You were a judge, you were an Attorney General of Texas. 144 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure you're familiar with the news that's coming out. 145 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: In fact, the Attorney General is going to be speaking 146 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: of the United States here soon. Mayk Garland, do you 147 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: think there needs to be a special counsel appointed based 148 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: on Joe Biden's handling of classified documents, based on what 149 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: you have seen in your legal background. Yes, And let 150 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: me be clear about something that's so incredibly important. We're 151 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: at a very tenuous moment in our country as it 152 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: concerns the legal system and trust in government. Because if 153 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: we see come out of Merrick Garland a double standard, 154 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: one apply to Trump with regard to his documents, another 155 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: apply to Joe Biden with regard to his documents, Americans 156 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: will realize that there are two systems of law and 157 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: law enforcement in this country and they will not tolerate that. 158 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: And so it is essential that Merrick Garland do the 159 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: right thing and apply the same standards to Joe Biden 160 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: as he has applied to Donald Trump. Well, we're going 161 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: to find out here in just a few moments from 162 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: the Attorney General whether or not that's actually the case 163 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: here in this country. Attorney General, sorry, pardon me, Governor Abbott, 164 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: Attorney General Garland, Governor Abbott. Governor Abbot, thanks so much 165 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: for being with us. Oh, it is the pleasure. Thank 166 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: you guys. Take care Clay. You know we're gonna be 167 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: watching it here any moment now. The podium is set up, 168 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: the Justice Department going to go live with Merrick Garland. 169 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: We will be rolling on it. We will bring to 170 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: you in real time what is being said. Clay thinks 171 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: there'll be a special counsel.

The Voices 194 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: of Sanity in an Insane World Clay Travis Sad buck Sexton. 195 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. So breaking 196 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: news during the commercial break, and we'll play some of 197 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: this audio for you. I would imagine in short order 198 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: big news. Merrick Garland has officially appointed a special council 199 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: to look into Joe Biden's handling of classified documents. Buck. 200 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: I was jotting down notes during that commercial break because 201 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: Merrick Garland is speaking literally as we are going right now, 202 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: um November second, the initial discovery and do you think 203 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: we should go live and handle this and take any 204 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: of this right now? What do you think we could 205 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: He's gone, He's still okay. He just liked so what 206 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: we were watching all this in the break. It's a 207 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: pretty quick speech, but Clay, go back to timeline because 208 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: that was yeah time. By the way, well done, sir. 209 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: On the special council, this, I correct me if if 210 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. I think this is the first Democrat to 211 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: face a special council since Bill Clinton. I don't remember 212 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: there being one for Brock, so that would be Biden. 213 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: Yet I think you're right. I think the ken Starr 214 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: investigation of Bill Clinton would be the last time that 215 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: there was a special counsel. So timeline here that I 216 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: jotted down. This is answer some of the initial questions 217 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: that you and I have been discussing in the first hour. 218 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: November second was the initial discovery of the documents inside 219 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden's Washington d C Office classified documents on 220 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: no November ninth, Merritt Garland says he ordered an FBI 221 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: assessment of those classified documents. On November fourteenth, he appointed 222 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: US Attorney lausch to investigate whether or not there was 223 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 1: a potential case here. On December twentieth, there were additional 224 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: documents that were discovered, they said at the garage of 225 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. FBI secured those documents. Again I'm quoting from 226 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: Marek Garland, and on January fifth, he says that lausch 227 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: who was the US attorney that was initially put on 228 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: this case, was named or sorry, advised that it made 229 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: sense for there to be a special counsel. I also 230 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: believe Buck that they said they found an additional document 231 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 1: just yesterday inside of the Biden residents that would be classified. 232 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: So the way that I would break this down for you, 233 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: Buck is, first of all special huge news, but the 234 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: initial discovery of classified documents in November. Second, somehow they 235 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: didn't discover the additional classified documents until December twentieth. That's 236 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: a big scope where nothing was really going on. Potentially, 237 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. And I think it's noteworthy that the 238 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: classified documents were from his time time as VP, which 239 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: means they were hanging out for quite a while, right 240 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: for years, So he uh, you know, to the whole point. 241 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: But all these are totally secure and no problem, Clay, 242 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: this is this is a big deal. As we know, 243 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: they did not appoint a special counsel for Hillary Clinton. 244 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: Now that was I think because she was an active 245 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: candidate at the time. Yes, But then again, Joe Biden, 246 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: you would assume this is where I'm going with This 247 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: is a soon to be active candidate as well as 248 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: sitting president. I gotta think this is affecting this is 249 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: this is affecting the gears in DC in some pretty 250 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: major ways because the one Donald Trump is not being 251 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: prosecutor anymore. All that moralogal rate stuff, total joke gone 252 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: not happy. Yes, no one's gonna stand for that. Joe 253 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: Biden has a special counsel. Now, I don't think this 254 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: is gonna last very long. This is why I figured 255 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: they'll say, Okay, we did the sweep, and you know 256 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna have some port would be pretty minor, but 257 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: it raises a lot of questions with a lot of 258 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: people about this guy being of sound mind. Is he 259 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: too old? You know, there's some other things that come 260 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: into and who knows there could be more stuff. Is 261 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: this a foursome out moment by the machine? Is the 262 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: apparatus saying we can't go old man Biden across the 263 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: line for four more years? So this is his last 264 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: two and Buck, I'm watching Fox News right now and 265 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: they're playing this political ad of Joe Biden in his 266 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: corvette with all the documents on the back of wall. 267 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: They may have literally run a political ad with classified 268 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: documents in the background, which suggests it's probably not that 269 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: well secured. Also, how secured is any garage when you 270 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: just push a button and the garage door opens for 271 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: anybody who drives a car in and out. Buck, Here's 272 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: what else I would say. I think you hit on 273 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: something important that needs to be expanded on. It's the 274 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: first special counsel appointed since Bill Clinton had a special 275 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: council appointed into the Whitewater case. But remember, and this 276 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: we need to figure out more this guy, Robert Herr, 277 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: what his background is he is going to be the 278 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: special counsel. Buck, Remember that the special council investigation can 279 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: go in sometimes many different directions, by which I mean 280 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: we already know that there is a report that some 281 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: of these documents involved Ukraine. Well, does this begin to 282 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: draw in any of the Hunter Biden Ukraine connections based 283 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: on what these documents are, based on some of the meetings, 284 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: Because remember initially what ken Starr began investigating Bill Clinton 285 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: on was Whitewater right, this land deal in Arkansas and 286 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: whether it was appropriate or not right. But then they 287 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: change that was a special prosecutor, and then they changed 288 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: the statue to be the special counsel, and they made 289 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: some other shifts because it wasn't supposed to be the 290 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: fishing expedition. You follow kind of the illegality sometimes and 291 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: this could be connected again, the Ukraine documents could theoretically 292 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: bring in a concern here. Now this Robert her when 293 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: we come back, we need to get more information on 294 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: him because they made a big deal about a g 295 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: Lausche And if I'm mispronouncing his name, apologies that he 296 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: was appointed by Bill Us by Donald Trump, so there 297 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: was some independence there based on who appointed him. What's 298 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: this Her guy's background is immediately going to become significant. 299 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: It's still they're doing this. You know how you thought 300 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: they would prosecute Hunter so they could prosecute Trump. Yeah, 301 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: they're doing this to keep open other options, and we 302 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: got to figure out what those are because this does 303 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: This is a bad look for Biden, but so are 304 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: a lot of things. There's no chance, in my mind 305 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: zero that anything meaningful comes of this as it relates 306 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: to Biden legally speaking. But to your point, there are 307 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: other people who maybe who knows, if the Special Council 308 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: decides that they're going to chase some other threads. This 309 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: is a big deal. We're gonna get to it's a 310 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: very big I think they were going to do what 311 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 1: they did at Special Council. We'll see where it goes. 312 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: Cell phone industry is a very competitive one.

It informed him that the 341 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: White House had notified the Archives that documents bearing classification 342 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: markings were identified at the office of the Penn Biden 343 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement located in Washington, d C. 344 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: The Special Council has been appointed to look into the 345 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: classified documents that have been found. Three now document discoveries 346 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: have been confirmed by the DOJ Joe Biden is the 347 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: first president and who is a Democrat. All Republican presidents 348 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: seem to have a special counsel or two. But every 349 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: person now would have to think back to what went 350 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: through or what happened during those years in the nineteen 351 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: nineties with the ken Star investigation of Bill Clinton and 352 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: how all that went. Now this seems like a much 353 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: smaller scale, much more limited investigation, but it's still noteworthy 354 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: and it's interesting, I think, for the political implications in 355 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: many ways more so than the legal ones. Clay, You've 356 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: been deep diving into the background. Because let's just as 357 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: as a quick preface, is this the apparatus protecting itself? 358 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: Or is Joe Biden no longer considered sacrosanct by the 359 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: apparatus and therefore this becomes part of the effort to 360 00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: encourage him, shall we say, to move aside that essentially, Clay, 361 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: he no longer has the cloak of invincibility. What do 362 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: you think about this, Prosecutor. It's a great question and 363 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: one that we should spend and are going to spend 364 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: a lot of time discussing. But I want to give 365 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: you information on this Robert her thanks to our staff 366 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: who has helped to find his information. So he's a partner. 367 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: This is the new special counsel that has been appointed 368 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: by Merrick Garland. Robert Herr is a partner at Gibson, 369 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: Dunn and Crutcher. He is a this is a big time, 370 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: you know, heavyweight DC firm, and his background is interesting. 371 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: He was a former US attorney who was appointed and 372 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: unanimously confirmed by the Senate. He is a Trump appointed 373 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: US attorney if I'm reading his bio correctly, because he 374 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: was appointed in twenty eighteen, so he was working in 375 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: the state of Maryland before that. This is a guy 376 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: who went to Stanford Law School for his jd. Super smart, 377 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: not a surprise, and worked as a clerk for two 378 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: different justices, sorry, one Supreme Court justice and one Ninth 379 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: Circuit justice. He worked for Kazinski, who was appointee of 380 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan, so a Republican judge on the Ninth Circuit, 381 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: and he then went and clerked for Renquist as a 382 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: Supreme Court clerk. So why some of you out there 383 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: might be saying, okay, why is his background significant? They 384 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: have appointed Merritt Garland has ostensibly a Republican background judge 385 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: who was a Trump appointee to the US Attorney's Office, 386 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: who clerked for Renquist, who was like, I mean, what, 387 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: it's not like Renquist is a far right wing guy, 388 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: but and then also worked with Kazinski, so his background 389 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: would be right leaning in his in his clerkship and 390 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: appointment era. Now there's people are like the Federalist Society 391 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: who would know far more about her. And I'm sure 392 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: more details will come out about the work that he 393 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: has done. But this is important in that it suggests 394 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: that this is not a guy who is rigged in 395 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: favor of Joe Bien. Now Buck, I told you if 396 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: I were waiving a magic one. I think in July 397 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: or August, both these special Council reports will come in 398 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: on the classified docs. Merrick Garland to walk out, wag 399 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: his finger say they both behaved inappropriately, they shouldn't have 400 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: done this, but we're not going to bring criminal charges 401 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: against either. That's the biggest significance I think of this 402 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: Special Council point. My prediction of what ye either you mean, 403 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: I think that's I would even say that's pretty almost inevitable. 404 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it's obvious right, because otherwise the alternative would 405 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,959 Speaker 1: be referring for prosecution, which in the case of Joe Biden, 406 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: goes into the whole can you even prosecute a president? 407 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: A lot of people say no, and on the Donald 408 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: Trump side, with him running for president, that creates all 409 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: kinds of issues, but it'd be easy. It's an easy 410 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: defense against this too, in the Trump case in particular, 411 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: which is they can't even prove that Trump pulled any 412 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: of these documents himself, knew anything about you know. The 413 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: whole thing is what would get down into a process argument, 414 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: I think very quickly. I mean, it's interesting to see 415 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: what people really believe here. I think Joe Biden, I'll 416 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: just put this out there. I think Joe Biden is 417 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: the democrats best chance for four more years of a 418 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: Democrat president without question. Is it really possible that Democrats 419 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: don't realize that and that and that the apparatus wants 420 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: him to be pushed aside? Like there's something, there's there's 421 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: something that we can't It doesn't totally add up to me, 422 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: I know, and I don't pretend it's I feel like 423 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: I can't see the matrix right now. I'm like, what 424 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: exactly is the move here. There is a possibility in 425 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 1: my mind, Clay, that this ends very quickly and so 426 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: that this then just becomes a box checking exercise with 427 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we'd a special counsel too, and then they 428 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: sweep it all aside because unless there's more classified information 429 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: found in more places, which is possible, this isn't really 430 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: going anywhere. And I think they'll they'll have them on 431 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: a pretty short leash in terms of investigation. They won't 432 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: allow the special counsel to go after areas that aren't 433 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: specifically this. And you know, there's not a lot that's 434 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: tied into this. It's document mishandling. Now, we would have 435 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: just just to be first everyone's clear on this, we 436 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 1: will have had Donald Trump accused of document mishandling, Hillary 437 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 1: Clinton obviously guilty of document mishandling, former CIA director Petrayus 438 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: guilty in a criminal court of documents. Like you start 439 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: to see all these people they're supposed to be the 440 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: absolute top of the classification national security food chain, that 441 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 1: they can't keep you know, their Christmas ornaments separate from 442 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: their classified information. It seems kind of weird. Yeah, I 443 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: think it's kind of a pox on both houses moment 444 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: where that's the way that this will be resolved. But 445 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: I think really basically this is Joe Biden destroying any 446 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: kind of criminal case against Donald Trump. And I would 447 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: imagine Merrick Garland when he heard about this incompetence. Remember 448 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: Obama memorably said, and I'm paraphrasing here, don't underestimate Joe 449 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: Biden's ability. And that's really what Joe Biden has done 450 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: to this side. Now, remember Jack Smith, who is the 451 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: special prosecutor investigating Trump for basically everything, still has the 452 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: pathway of, oh, we could charge him with January sixth 453 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: related offenses, because there's really two paths, right, The classified 454 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: doc's argument is basically dead, right. I would be stunned 455 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 1: if if either of those directions is pursued for Biden 456 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: or Trump. They still have the January sixth pathway where 457 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: they can charge him with conspiracy or obstruction or whatever 458 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: they want to try to get him with there. But 459 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: I think even that becomes more difficult because remember what 460 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: happens with the special counsel is the special counsel does 461 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: this massive investigation and then they go to the Attorney 462 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: General and they present him with their decision. Based on 463 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: the evidence their recommendation basically, and then the Attorney General 464 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 1: still has to make the decision about what to do 465 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:47,959 Speaker 1: based on this what is uncovered. So unless you're just 466 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: of the opinion that and by the way, there's there's 467 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: some people out there in America who would say, just 468 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: charge them both with crimes, and let's just sweep Biden 469 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: and Trump out with the ocean, right, like let the 470 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: tie to just sweep them back over, and let's just 471 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,239 Speaker 1: have a redo and go pick a new Democrat and 472 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: go pick a new Republican. I would say there are 473 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the middle of the country 474 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: that are like kind of of that opinions as it were, 475 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: not a scientific poll but a Twitter poll in real 476 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: time in just the last ten minutes. I know you 477 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: haven't seen this, Clay, but is this discovery of classified 478 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: documents and special Accouncil appointment by the apparatus a push 479 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:34,199 Speaker 1: to replace Biden in time for twenty twenty four ninety 480 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: percent of people and we already have a few thousand votes. 481 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: In a couple thousand votes, ninety percent of people think 482 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: the answer is yes, okay, So but when we come back, 483 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: this is what you call it good tease when we 484 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: come back, if ninety percent of people will leieve that 485 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: who's the puppet master? That is the question that I 486 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: would ask if your decision like who is making it's 487 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: always committee, it's always committee to live. So who's on 488 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: the committee? Who's on the puppet master committee? It's not one. 489 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: I believe that conspiracies exist. By the way, how could 490 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: you not based on the last couple of years in 491 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: this country, But who would be the person that would be, 492 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, kind of pulling threads, pulling strings? And this 493 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: part in the movie, the best possible option is that 494 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: Fauci was like, I'm putting the classified in his garage. 495 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: He's finished, and I finally get the job I was 496 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: really meant for. And remember, in order for somebody to 497 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: be pulling the strings, you still have to have an 498 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: incompetent person in Joe Biden to create this opportunity.

Clay 533 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: Travis and buck Sexton Welcome back in Clay Travis buck 534 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: Sexton show closing up our number two as we went 535 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: to break. We'll keep reiterating this because it is breaking 536 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: news and it is significant. There is now a special 537 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: counsel that has been officially appointed to conduct an investigation 538 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden relating to his handling of classified documents 539 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: which have been discovered in multiple locations, his garage, of 540 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: his Delaware home, somewhere else inside of his Delaware home, 541 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: and also in his office in Washington, DC. That special counsel, 542 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: Robert Herr, previously clerked for Justice. Renquist, was a US 543 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: attorney nominee by Donald Trump, so he has a Republican 544 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: judicial background in some way. Buck you put up a 545 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: poll question asking if basically this is the apparatus turning 546 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: on Joe Biden. Now it's been so many twists and 547 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: turns here buckets Worth pointing out I thought that Joe 548 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: Biden would announce he was not running in early twenty 549 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: twenty three because he would get shellacked in the midterms. 550 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: That didn't happen, and as a result, Joe Biden's political 551 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: standing had seemed to be improved immensely by how the 552 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: midterms went, and everything seemed to be full steam ahead 553 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: on the idea that Biden would announce that he was 554 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: a running for reelection. In fact, we've seen stories Politico, 555 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: Washington Post, other places that have said they are trying 556 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: to decide when to officially announce the twenty four campaign. 557 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: So if this is in some way a hit job 558 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: designed to take Joe Biden out of the running for 559 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, my question would be who is behind 560 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: the hit job and what is the apparatus decision being 561 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: made hold on. I mean, there's there's the decision from 562 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: the apparatus, but then there's also the I think Joe 563 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: Biden is a reckless old buffoon and has been known 564 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: to be kind of an imbecile for about the last 565 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: forty or fifty years, So it shouldn't be surprised. You know, 566 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: it's not like they planted the documents, you know what 567 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean. It's his own incompetence, that's opportunity. So the 568 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 1: way the Democrats would usually play this, and this is 569 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: why I thought, oh, they'll try to make this go away, 570 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: just like they've made some of the other things go away. 571 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: The way they usually would play this is if he's 572 00:33:55,040 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: still valuable to keeping the apparatus in power, or they'll 573 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: find some excuse, they'll cover it up, they'll do whatever. 574 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: But this does raise the issue of, Okay, he made 575 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 1: a mistake. Are we still sending in the wolf if 576 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: you know what I mean from pulp fiction? Like are 577 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: they still willing to clean up crew on Aisle Biden 578 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: for him? And on this one? Because how hard is 579 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: this really to make go away? I don't think it's that. 580 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: That's why I'd say this is not I'm surprised. That's 581 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: that's the thing that most surprises me about this story. Buck. 582 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,720 Speaker 1: I would think if they found classified documents in Biden's 583 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: possession in any way or in his locations, that they 584 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: would just make them disappear. Yeah, and that's what I 585 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: would think, that there would be a fixer. Somebody would 586 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: burn them, somebody would paper shred them. And neither you 587 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: nor I know anybody, nor anybody out there listening to us, 588 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: would ever know those documents existed. So he's Look, he's 589 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: I'm very confident he's not going to be because there 590 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: is a precedent here, right, And we're also saying Trump 591 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: shouldn't be in legal jeopardy for the documents either, So 592 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: I don't think that even and he's a sitting president 593 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: put that all aside, though, you know what, I think 594 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: the biggest political liability is for him at this point, 595 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: they were next to my corvette. Bro. It's cool. That 596 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: made this a lot worse because people will remember that 597 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: like after because we also have had months of oh 598 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 1: my gosh, Trump basically destroyed the country because of the 599 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: things in the dusty bins and Mara Lago's basement, Like 600 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 1: this was morning, Joe. I mean you had you had 601 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: weeping and gnashing of teeth and they were practically dressed 602 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: like every day for months, It's like, I can't believe 603 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: we've all been under threat of nuclear annihilation because of 604 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: the Trump documents. And now we realize it's not just 605 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 1: like some senior level democrat, but just moron Biden himself 606 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: is letting documents fly and nobody even knows what's going 607 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: on for years because this is when he was vice president, 608 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: so we all know what year these documents are from, 609 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: but we know that these documents were out there for years. 610 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: And if he's got them in three different locations, now buck, 611 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,919 Speaker 1: I mean again, my question is November second, they made, 612 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 1: according to the story, the initial discovery of the classified documents, 613 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: they found additional classified documents in his garage on December twentieth, 614 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: and then it sounds like basically just yesterday they found 615 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: more classified documents. So this was like the third times 616 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: the charm. But that's months in between the discovery of 617 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: these documents. What was going on during that time? I mean, 618 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: pro tiff. If you don't have access to a fireplace, 619 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 1: which is the most obvious thing, you know, you just 620 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: take any documents, anything at all that you got that 621 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: you want to get rid of. You rip them up 622 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: a little bit, you put them in a blender. You 623 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: filled the blender with some water, and you pulled that 624 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 1: whole thing up and then probably landed on fire when 625 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: it dries out. But you're good to go. I just 626 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 1: wonder whether there were more documents that they have covered 627 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: up because they got to do the search themselves.
