1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:08,640 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Monday edition, Clay Travis Buck 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: as we hit Thanksgiving week. I know many of you 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: may be traveling this week. You may be out and 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: about all over the country, and we are certainly thankful 7 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: that you are choosing to spend your time with us. 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 1: Kids are out in the Travis household. Buck. If you 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: hear screaming and yelling in the background, it may well 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: be video games. It might be the World Cup which 11 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: is underway. There are any number of things which the 12 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: Travis boys could be cartwheeling about the house discussing what 13 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: we are going to discuss, many different things. Lauren Bobert 14 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: is going to join us at one thirty. She has 15 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: been reelected in Colorado despite the fact that MSNBC said 16 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: she should go on only fans. I bet that Lauren 17 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: Bobert will be pretty entertaining in the second hour with us. 18 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: But Buck, let's start here. Two years ago, you will 19 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: remember Donald Trump sat down for an interview with Leslie 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: Stall of sixty minutes, and during the course of that interview, 21 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: Trump asked her why sixty minutes and CBS were not 22 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: actually covering the Hunter Biden and Joe Biden laptop scandal, 23 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: and Leslie Stall said, oh, well, we can't verify it, 24 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: and maybe at some point we will play that audio 25 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: for those of you, again who cannot remember that moment. 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: But this morning, Buck, you can imagine my surprise when 27 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: I woke up and after two years, CBS News finally 28 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: wants all of its audience to know a little while 29 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: after the mid terms, two years after Joe Biden entered 30 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: into the White House. Oh yeah, it wasn't disinformation, it 31 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: wasn't a rush and plot. The Hunter Biden laptop, it's real. 32 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: Just listen to this audio. And then I've got so 33 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: many thoughts about this, Buck, and I know you do too. 34 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: For those of you who did not hear it, and 35 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: I certainly understand if you weren't watching CBS this morning, 36 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: it's important that they are just now telling their audience, 37 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this laptop, it's real. As Republicans take control 38 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: of the House, Hunter Biden, the President's sign will be 39 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 1: a target for investigations, and that means data from a 40 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: laptop reported to belong to Biden could be crucial to 41 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: the investigatory process. CBS News has obtained its data not 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: through a third party or political operative, but directly from 43 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: the source who told us they provided it to the 44 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: FBI under subpoena, and we commissioned an independent forensic review 45 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: to determine its authenticity. See Your investigative Corresponding Katherine Harris 46 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: joins us now with what we've found, Good morning, Tony. 47 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: The laptop data we had analyzed showed no evidence it 48 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: was faked or tampered with independent forensic review. Clay, Well, 49 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: that's just the gold standard right there. I mean, after 50 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: two years of every person with even the most basic 51 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: brain power available to them understanding that this is real. 52 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm so glad they brought in some random guy or 53 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: gal or whomever to tell us we already know so now, 54 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 1: but this is interesting. There are different theories here. Well, 55 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 1: first of why do I want to tell you why 56 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: I think CBS is doing this? Why do you think 57 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: CBS is doing this at this stage? I think because 58 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: and I am fascinated by this story on so many 59 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: levels in terms of the timing and why they're doing it. 60 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: Two years later, I think they know that the evidence 61 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: is going to come out. This is why winning the 62 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: House was consequential. I think they know that when the 63 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: investigation starts inside the House of Representing Representatives surrounding the laptop, 64 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: that the evidence is going to be so overwhelming that 65 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: it's going to be virtually impossible to argue that the 66 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop isn't real. And so I think they're 67 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,839 Speaker 1: getting ahead of the investigation and the fact that they're 68 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: going to have to cover it so they can say, well, 69 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: we're not following what the House of Representatives investigation is 70 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: telling us. We did our own independent verification and we 71 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: told you it was real, right, So I think that 72 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: that's I would largely just co sign to that. I 73 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: was wondering if you were going to say, which is 74 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: why I pushed it to you there. Well, because step okay, 75 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: believe this, Yeah, that that they're going to indict Hunter Biden. 76 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: And so this is a process where the media has 77 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: to start to has to start to get the So 78 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: is that where you because I still think that's the 79 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: next day, because I think that's that's what they're going 80 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: to say publicly. But I think the next step is 81 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: they are going to indict Hunter Biden and uh. And 82 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: on top of that, Buck, I know I said I 83 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: that I believe that I I signed on to co 84 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: signed on to your argument that Hunter Biden's going to 85 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: be the nominee in twenty twenty four. I also think though, 86 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 1: that there is a certain amount of you know, the 87 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: proverbial long knives coming out for Biden, and I wonder 88 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: how much this lack of protection for him may be 89 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: geared towards him not being able. So there's a whole 90 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: other that's a big step. So there's a big Okay. 91 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: I still think they're not going to charge him, or 92 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: if they do charge Hunter Biden, it will be essentially 93 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: a way to let him out, you know, let him 94 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: off super easy basically. And this goes back to our 95 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: lugs ending bet. Now you've got a month clay whether 96 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: or not he will face If he doesn't face prison, 97 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: they're letting him off with it. It's a joke. It's 98 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: a slap on the risk given what he did, just 99 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: the scale of the tax fraud implications here. If you 100 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: don't declare to everyone out in our audience, they already 101 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: know this first of all, if you're making millions of dollars, congratulations, 102 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: but not if you're getting it from you know, Chinese 103 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: backed Communist party payoffs for your debt. But if you're 104 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: if you make millions of dollars and you don't declare it, 105 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna go to prison right when they find that 106 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: you haven't declared the million, you're not gonna get a like, hey, 107 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: don't do that again. So that's one part of it, 108 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: I think for CBS, and maybe this is a more 109 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: minor component of this, but they need the people that 110 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: still watch CBS News. Funnily enough, I was an intern 111 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: there when I was eighteen years old and had no 112 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: interest in media at the time, but I just kind 113 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: of happened to find myself in the CBS eating newsroom. 114 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: The people that still watch CBS they want to believe Clay, 115 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: that it's the gold standard. And so this allows them, 116 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: if they believe CBS up to this point, to say, well, look, 117 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: they've gotta you know, an independent forensic analyst now. So 118 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: because that's because they're so honest. That's why they're so honest. 119 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: And I know that's silly to us, but if you 120 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: were a true believer in the journalistic integrity of it, 121 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: of an organization like CBS, it gives you at least 122 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,239 Speaker 1: a plausible deniability of the stupidity of pretending the laptop 123 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: wasn't real. Right, You're not dumb. You just needed to 124 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: wait for the independent forensic analysis. On your Biden point, though, 125 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: I don't know why you think. This is where I 126 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: don't know why you think that there's some anti Biden 127 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: sense growing in the Democrat Party. I want you to 128 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: expand on this for me and everybody a little bit, 129 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: because you see the poll over the weekend, seventy one 130 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: percent of Democrats believe that Joe Biden would be reelected. Now, 131 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: they may not want him to be the guy, but 132 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: if almost three quarters of them think he wins, there's 133 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: no way he's not running and I don't wheel him 134 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: out and they don't care what's going on. I mean, 135 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: they'll put aviators on him all day twenty four to seven. 136 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: They don't care. Well, here's my analogy, and I do 137 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: think it's a good one. Trump and Biden are right now, 138 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: two heavyweight fighters in the twelfth round of their fight, 139 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: and the only reason both of them are not on 140 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: the mat is because the other one is there and 141 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: they're kind of holding each other up. Anybody who's watched boxing, 142 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: especially heavyweight boxing, when the big men basically punched themselves 143 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: out and they're done and it's late in the fight, 144 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: they oftentimes just end up grappling with each other and 145 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: kind of leaning on one another. That's where I think 146 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: Biden and Trump are right now, and increasingly the only 147 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: reason to run Joe Biden is because Democrats believe that 148 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump will be the nominee for Republicans, and they think, 149 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 1: and they may well be right, that they can wheel 150 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: out Biden and he will beat Trump. I'm starting to 151 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: think that Democrats are becoming aware that Trump is not 152 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: a set in stone candidate for Republicans. You know, they 153 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: had the big event and I believe Las Vegas over 154 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: the weekend with all the different contenders that were out 155 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: there speaking to that. I think it was the Jewish Coalition, 156 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: and that's not the official name, but it was a 157 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: powerful Republican Jewish organization was having its its event and 158 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: everybody showed up there to speak. I think Trump is 159 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: going to face a bevy of challengers, and I think 160 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: Democrats are having second thoughts because just play this out. 161 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: Imagine that, say Ron De Santis is the Republican nominee, 162 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: and he's going against Joe Biden. I think Ron De 163 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: Santis would obliterate Joe Biden. I think we could be 164 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: talking about as close to a landslide election, oh Man, 165 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: as we have seen. I wish I could. I wish 166 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: I could see it that way after this, After this election, 167 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: I think, I think we gotta do a lot of 168 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: retrenching and rethinking about who people are willing to vote 169 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: for Clay in some of these states. How powerful the 170 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: Democrat machinery isn't so I think you and I can 171 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: agree that whether it's Rohn De Santis or Trump or 172 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: anyone else, it's gonna come down to two or three 173 00:09:54,480 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: percentage points in the electorate. I think. So you think 174 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: that that that that whole paradigm is swept away if 175 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: it's the Santists. I just feel like that. I think 176 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: the generational thing is so massive for independent voters. I 177 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 1: saw a stat over the weekend buck Wall Street Journal 178 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: eighty six percent of Americans think that you shouldn't be 179 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: able to run for president if you're over seventy five 180 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: years old, eighty six percent. And so I think that generationally, 181 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: if you had RHN de Santists or Glenn Young can 182 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: by the way, going up against Biden, I think that 183 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: Democrats would get absolutely obliterated, and I think as soon 184 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 1: as Trump were out of the picture, they would kick 185 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: Biden to the curb faster than they could at all. 186 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: That's like I want to agree, I want to believe you, 187 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: or rather I want to agree with you, because obviously 188 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: we're talking about the future here. I just think we 189 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: got to keep the Federman rule in mind here, my friend, 190 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: I think I think the election the same way that 191 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: it's very different issue. But but what the Democrats did 192 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: to Brett Kavanaugh was a political lesson in per destruction 193 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: that everybody of fair mind in the country should always remember. 194 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean, they told the most heinous and demonstrably absurd 195 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: lies about a guy, and they were gleeful and Kamala 196 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: did it right. That was like a seminal moment. That 197 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: was a sea change. I think in a lot of 198 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: people thinking about right about who the Democrat Party really 199 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: is and what they're willing to do to hold power 200 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: on the Supreme Court, how it's important to them. I 201 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: think the Federman election needs to be thought of as 202 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: a as a changing moment in the mindset of the 203 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: American electorate, or at least the Pennsylvania electorate, and therefore, 204 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: what's possible in other states, which is under the right 205 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: circumstances of get out the vote, universal mail in ballot, 206 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: Democrat propaganda, and the media, it's, you know, go down 207 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: the list. They can elect literally anybody who is alive. 208 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: That's it. And I've been thinking about the Fetterman thing 209 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: a lot, and I wonder how much of it was 210 00:11:56,080 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: a perfect storm of Republican ineptitude. But let me just 211 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: say this about Fetterman versus Biden, whether we believe it 212 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: or not, Fetterman is not so old that he couldn't 213 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: recover from his stroke and be better right now. I 214 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not a medical expert. I don't know 215 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: what the prognosis is for John Fetterman in three years. 216 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: But they tried to dangle out the idea he's recovering 217 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: from a stroke, he could get back to normalcy. There's 218 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: people out there listening to us right now that have 219 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: recovered from strokes and probably feel like they're close back 220 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: to normal. Joe Biden is not ever going to get better. 221 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: He can only get worse. Right So, I don't know 222 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: that if you're gonna make that argument, I don't know 223 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: that Democrats made it well. But at least with Fetterman, 224 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 1: there is that possibility of hey, in two years, he 225 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: could be back to what he was. I don't know 226 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: that I buy it. I'm not a doctor, but at 227 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,719 Speaker 1: least that is possible in two years. Joe Biden is 228 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: not suddenly going to be fifty five again. He's going 229 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: to be worse than he is now. And he's bad now, right. 230 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 1: I don't think a great satan and I think him up. 231 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: This is the problem is that it doesn't Joe Biden. 232 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: You always say ron Klain is like the de facto 233 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: president by the White House, so you get a ron 234 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: Clain presidency. Biden's you know, hand will shake a little 235 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: bit as he signs whatever he's told to sign, He'll 236 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: say whatever's in the prompter. If he stumbles, they say, 237 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: don't be mean. You know, you've actually reached a point 238 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: now with with the Feederment election, they manage to do 239 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: what they have done in other contexts, which is is 240 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: run in a political race somebody who's a victim, and 241 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: therefore if you criticize them, you're a bad person. But 242 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: they usually don't do that for office. They usually do 243 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: that with surrogates, right. They did it with the so 244 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: called um you know, the jury. I think they're called 245 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 1: the Jersey Girls or the Jersey Wives, which were four 246 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: or five women who lost husbands in nine to eleven 247 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: who were just cutting campaign commercials for John Kerry and 248 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: we just straight up don't elect Bush. Elect John Kerry. 249 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: Were the nine eleven widows. I'm sorry, that's what they're 250 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: called the nine eleven widow There were thousands of nine 251 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: to eleven widows, right, I mean the notion that these women, 252 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: but they were victims, so you couldn't criticize them. Now 253 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: we have victim candidates. Now you could say there's been 254 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: some of those in the past, but I mean victim 255 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: as in their ability to physically and mentally do a 256 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: job candidates. And I think Democrats are fine with it 257 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: as long as long as their party ultimate. It's just 258 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: about the scoreboard for them, wherever the votes lie and 259 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: whatever ideology gets to be pushed. So well, let's come 260 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: back to this, because we haven't even talked about Trump yet. 261 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: I was at Marlago on Friday. Yeah, it was it 262 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: was an interesting event because he had to address the 263 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: fact that they are. We haven't even mentioned this yet 264 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: on the show. I talked about it a little bit 265 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: Fridays it broke. There are now two additional special counsel 266 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: overseen criminal investigations of Donald Trump and Clay Did you 267 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: see there's another criminal investigation that they are rebooting today 268 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: of Donald Trump.

We 292 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: talked about how CBS authenticated with their super serious expert 293 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden laptop that everybody who is possessed of 294 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: a higher IQ than a toaster of it already knew 295 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: was real. But CBS there a lot of a lot 296 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: of questions, a lot of questions over at CBS about 297 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,479 Speaker 1: the laptop. And let's recall that in the most condescending 298 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: we are the serious journalists here, sir, tone possible. Leslie 299 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: Stall of CBS sat down with then President Trump talking 300 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: to him about this, and she basically wanted him to know, sir, sorry, 301 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: you can't have that silly Hunter Biden laptop being real, 302 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: not on my watch, not allowed. Here's what she said, 303 00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: it's the biggest scandal out there, Leslie. I think it's 304 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: I think it's one of the biggest scandals I've ever seen. 305 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: And you don't go through it because you want to 306 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: talk about because they can't be verified. I want to 307 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 1: talk about insignificant things. I'm telling you, of course they 308 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: can be verified. Excuse me, they found the laptop, Leslie? 309 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: What can't be verified the laptop? Why you said that 310 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: even the family hasn't the family on the laptop. He's 311 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: got into hiding for five days, he's got into hid mean, 312 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: just Clay. The basic premise here is I guess nothing 313 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: can ever be really verified. Are you really sitting there? 314 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: Am I really sitting here? The verification two years later, 315 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: Buck ended up being they gave it to a random 316 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: computer dude in Minneapolis and he said, yeah, it's real. 317 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 1: Now it took two years. Are you really telling me 318 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: that sixty minutes, which probably has the most investigative resources 319 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 1: of any journalistic entity, almost certainly on television in the country, 320 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: couldn't have done that in October of twenty twenty, that 321 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: that was impossible, Like Leslie Stall said, to verify it. 322 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: Give me a break, total bs.

Buck I was out Friday and 342 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: you went to Mara Lago over the weekend, and connected 343 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: to all of that is that there's now a special 344 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: counsel investigating the president surrounding January sixth, and Mara Lago, 345 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: New York, as you teased a few minutes ago, is 346 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: now reopening a criminal investigation into payments made to Stormy Daniels. 347 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: According to The New York Times, they truly are convinced 348 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: that Trump is the great Satan, and the continuing fallout 349 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: of these cases will be taking place over frankly, the 350 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: next couple of years, I really do believe. But before 351 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: we get into analyzing special council, what that could tell 352 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: us and more. You were at Mara Lago over the weekend, 353 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: the President was there. What was the vibe like in general? 354 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody was in good spirits. You're at a 355 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: black tie event at one of the great uh mansions built. 356 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: I think it was one of the nineteen nineteen twenties. 357 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: I think one of the last sort of great mansions 358 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: of that erra to be built in the US. It's 359 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: an amazing property. I was there with Carrie, so we 360 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: enjoyed seeing everybody who was there. A lot of former 361 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: Trump administration, you know, Larry Cudlow was there, and uh 362 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: and um Kelly and Conway. You know the Lake I 363 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 1: saw too, Right, Carrie Lake was there, she told me, 364 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: And I said, because we were, you know, everyone's off 365 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: the record there were so it's a social event. It wasn't. 366 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: Well it's for the America Freight Uh Institute, but we're 367 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: there for a social event. But you know, I said, 368 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: can I mention this on air? Everybody? She says that 369 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: the fight continues. She says, does anyone really think it's okay? 370 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: I just she sort of put it to me this 371 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: way that in the places where on election day I 372 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: was supposed to meaning Carrie Lake was supposed to do 373 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: the strongest, the election machines are shutting down all over 374 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: the place and people have to wait four hours in 375 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: line to vote. Of course, mail in balloting is going 376 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 1: to crush same day voting if you shut down same 377 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: day voting in some of the most crowded precincts. Right, 378 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: I mean that, I will say, she makes a good 379 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: point on that. Right, They were just supposed to accept that. 380 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: Somehow the woman overseeing the election, who is her opponent 381 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: in the election, just goes Whoopsie ran out of printer 382 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: and toner cartridges or whatever in Arizona in some key 383 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: areas where the red turnout was expected to be strongest. Yeah, 384 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: that's an issue, folks. I mean that's a problem. It 385 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: is a little bit now unfortunately, like well, you know, 386 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: if the refs called the game one way, even if 387 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: they were paid off, it's very hard to get them 388 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: to switch it around. But I do think, Clay, that 389 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: there needs to be much more, much more of a 390 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 1: look at not just we've been saying the systems need 391 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: to change, but how what was done in these systems 392 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: that made it this way. So I think there's a lot, 393 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: a lot that still has to be enough anyway to 394 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 1: the Trump issue. There was also the announcement I was 395 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: on air, you were off on front. Were you hanging 396 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: with the with the fam? I forgot what do you? 397 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 1: I knew? I was just traveling for the Patriot Awards 398 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: to get back in advance. I was in Lexington over 399 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: the weekend, met a lot of our listeners. I'm gonna 400 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: be at the Michigan Ohio state game over this weekend. 401 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: I've been on the road for like fifteen straight weeks. 402 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: What happened to my beloved Voles. I feel like the 403 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: defense did not come through as I would have liked 404 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: them too. Congratulations to our listeners in South Carolina. I 405 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: was incredibly destroyed on Saturday night, as was the Tennessee 406 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: defense with a playoff birth to be grabbed. Biggest loss 407 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: in twenty years. Uh, this is I mean, this is 408 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 1: what keeps me humble. My team is just getting the 409 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: crap kicked out of them. So now I've got to 410 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: I've got to rebuild, got to rebuild. Buck. It was 411 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: a tough one. It'll be all right, man, We're here 412 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: for you. So so, but on Friday, so while you 413 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: while you're traveling, the news breaks of these two add 414 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: So there's one special counsel who is overseeing it, but 415 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: it's really two separate criminal probes, one into January six 416 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: and the other into the documents at Mara Lago. So 417 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: now we really have I just want everying to keep 418 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: track of this because it is hard. You really need 419 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: to start thinking spreadsheet for Trump's arrangement, syndrome lawfare, which 420 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: is what they're doing here, the usage of the law 421 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: in political warfare. And and you have so you had 422 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: the Russia collusion, which was obviously and really Russia collusion 423 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: was based into the Muller probe had subheadings, right, it 424 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: was the Russia collusion component and then the obstruction component, 425 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: which they were also trying to prove totally separate from 426 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: the actual did Russia collude, which obviously that was crazy. 427 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: It didn't happen. Now you have these two, you also 428 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: have Alvin Bragg in New York, the district attorney there, 429 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: the woke, progressive, lunatic district attorney who still has his 430 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: job because Kathy Hulkel is still the governor of New York. Unfortunately, 431 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: Lee Zelden almost pulled it off, but didn't. Clay. You 432 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: have that investigation about Stormy Daniels. You had Letitia James, 433 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: the Attorney General of the State of New York, bringing 434 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: a civil investigation around inflation of assets. What else? There's 435 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: some others I think that I haven't even what are 436 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: I can't think of all the Trump and oh the Trumpe. 437 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: There's a Georgia investigation going on from the Georgia like 438 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: Da Atlanta Air. I can't even keep up over what 439 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: exactly was said it happened there. There are I mean, 440 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: there's like five or six different investigations going on simultaneous. 441 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: And the woman who wrote the book and said that 442 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: Trump's actually assaulted her decades, you know, like thirty years 443 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,719 Speaker 1: ago in the department store she I saw. She's you know, 444 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: coming back now she's trying to do a personal suit 445 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: against Trump over that. Basically, the goal of the Democrats 446 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: seems to be to just sue and investigate Trump into submission. 447 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: And I have to say, this is one thing that 448 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 1: will not work because even people starting to get a 449 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: lot of people call with me a bar lago. I'll 450 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: tell you, they're like, you know, I'm starting to feel 451 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: like I have a little bit of a concern here 452 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: about how this campaign would play out whatever. But then 453 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: they announced the special counsels and I'm just back in 454 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: the bunker with Trump. Man. Can't allow this to go 455 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: as a tool for the left without pushback. I mean, 456 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: I think there's a big sense, there's a big sense 457 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: among a lot of people that it's almost they make 458 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: it bigger than Trump by being such lunatics with how 459 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: they're trying to destroy Trump, like they want him to run, 460 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: but they also have to prosecute him. They can't let 461 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: him run fairly. They want him He's their great satan. 462 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: The only thing holding the Democrat Party together is Trump. 463 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: There was a stat I was reading over the weekend. 464 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: It was in the New York Times or Wall Street Journal, 465 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: I don't remember which one, that thirty eight percent of 466 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 1: voters said they went to go cast a vote against 467 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden because they thought, Hey, he's doing such a 468 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: bad job. Buck. Thirty six percent of people went to 469 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: go cast a vote against Donald Trump. He's not in office, right, 470 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: So Democrats have managed to connect Trump to mid terms 471 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: that are occurring when he's out of office and motivate 472 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: their base to go vote based on that. So they 473 00:26:53,880 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 1: both simultaneously need him and want him to run. And 474 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: I think that's some of the essence of what's going 475 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: on with these charges. Now we come back in this 476 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: next segment, I'll tell you what I thought about the 477 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: special counsel announcement, because it's actually something if you listen 478 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: to the show. I don't know if somebody going to the 479 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: the archives. I said there should have been a special 480 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: counsel appointed the minute that they began this investigation, and 481 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: I didn't hear hardly anybody arguing for that. But the 482 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 1: minute that the Mari lago investigation began. I said, you know, 483 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: this can't be run by Merrick Garland, but what does 484 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: it mean that he's decided now to do it? If 485 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: you brought so you're talking about the special counsels against Trump, 486 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 1: because the reality is, if you were trying to create 487 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: in like a lab the perfect case study of when 488 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: you would need a special counsel to be appointed, it 489 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: would be the son of a sitting president who's getting 490 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: millions of dollars from foreign adversaries states who's under federal 491 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: investigation for a variety of crimes. That is, if you 492 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: were yiding the basis for the special council to even exist, 493 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: it would be Hunter Biden. And notice we don't. There's 494 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: no Hunter Biden special Council, which is, by the way, 495 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: if there was, I would start to think maybe maybe 496 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: they do have some plans for a Hunter. The reason 497 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: they don't is because ultimately Merrick Garland gets to steer 498 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: this thing and make sure that the sitting president of 499 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party's son is in no real criminal jeopardy. 500 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: This is how they play the game. Meanwhile, you know, 501 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: we have people on our side and the right thing. 502 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 1: Where are printaples? You know? We get like Lose Cheney 503 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: lecturing us about all this stuff while they're trying to 504 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: just it is, to your point, impossible to justify a 505 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: special counsel for Trump and not also have a special 506 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: council for Hunter Biden. It's impossible to justify. But here 507 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: we are. So you know, I was supposed to be 508 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: out today because I was going to go shooting with 509 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: my brothers and a couple of friends who are former Seals. 510 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: Their elite warriors are going to be training us all day. 511 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: And then it flooded. Here I'm down in Florida right now, 512 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: So it flooded and it was crazy rain, so we 513 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: couldn't actually go. But the good news is even when 514 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: your rain today gets rained out like mine did, guess what, 515 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: you have the Mantis X Firearms training system and you're 516 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: good to go.

Sanity 537 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: in an Insane World The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton 538 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: show if the Department of Justice can show that these 539 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: were indeed very sensitive documents, which I think they probably were, 540 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: and also showed that the President consciously was involved in 541 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: its leading the department, deceiving the government and playing games 542 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: after he had received the subpoena for the documents. Those 543 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: are serious charges. I personally think that they probably have 544 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: the basis for legitimately inditing the pressure. I don't know, 545 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm speculating, but but given what's gone on, I think 546 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: they probably have the evidence that would check the box. 547 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: They have the case. Do you think they will? I 548 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: think it's becoming increasingly more likely, increasingly more likely that 549 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: they will indict the the only Republican officially running for 550 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four nomination. I remember we did tell 551 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: you this. We call this one right that the the 552 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: presidential election basically starts the day after the mid term 553 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: here because of all the dynamics. There's no h into regnum, 554 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: there's no you know, time, the no honeymoon period or 555 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. It goes right into it. 556 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: And the announcement of these really dual Special Council investigations 557 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: into the into former President Trump shows exactly where this 558 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: is heading. For one thing, Clay, it means that we're 559 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: going to have an ongoing What I said about the 560 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: machinery of the Democrats, I think that's absolutely true. CNN, 561 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: these chips, they're gonna start ramping it up more and more. 562 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna have just the drip drip updates of anti 563 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 1: Trump daily propaganda from these investigations, right, and even if 564 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: it's not leaks from the investigations, it'll just be speculation 565 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: from home. The speculation here, a speculation there about where 566 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: this is all going. If they indict Trump, I mean 567 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: it's two years, so there's probably yeah, they could delay. 568 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: But if you're Trump, how do you play that? Right? 569 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: What do you do? Obviously you rally people to your banner, 570 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: but I think you want the trial to proceed before. 571 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 1: You probably wanted to go more quickly. You don't want 572 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: to hang over your head. I don't know. This is 573 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: uncharted territory, man. This is wild stuff we're looking at, 574 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: and it looks likely. It's it's wild. But this is 575 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: one where I would say, buck, I think Trump getting 576 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: indicted helps him, and I think Democrats to know that 577 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: Trump getting indicted helps him with Republicans but hurts him 578 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: with independence. So this is one where I actually think 579 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: they are being smart and strategic. And I know sometimes 580 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: we give too much credit to Democrats and sometimes they're 581 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: just incompetent. The way I see this playing out is 582 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: in their mind. The thing you need to understand is 583 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: Democrats want Donald Trump to be the nominee in twenty 584 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: twenty four. Okay, I understand there's some of you out 585 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: there that are saying they're doing this because they don't 586 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: want him to be No, no, no no, no no. Democrats, 587 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: if they could hand select the Republican nominee right now, 588 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: they would pick Donald Trump. And I think what they 589 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: know is when they indict him, it strengthens him with 590 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: the Republican base because you and me and a lot 591 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: of our listeners out there buck are going to be 592 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: outraged by the very idea that the sitting president Joe Biden, 593 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: is dieting his political rival effectively, and they're doing it 594 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: under the cloak and dagger of the Special Council. So 595 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that they would be willing. Actually, I 596 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: can't say what they're willing to do and not willing 597 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: to do, because I'm not of the left, and I 598 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: think that they're I think that there is a very 599 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: high correlation between delusion, mental illness and being a far 600 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: left wing Democrat. I really, I really do believe that. 601 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: I'm not just saying that, So I can't tell you 602 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: exactly what they're willing to do. I don't think they 603 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: believe that this ends with Donald Trump actually spending time 604 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: in a minimum security federal prison somewhere. I don't think 605 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: they believe that there are there's some of their left 606 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: wing generally crazy people, but I mean, I mean the 607 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: ones calling the shot the rational. Yes, I mean the 608 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: ones that are in power and that you know, the 609 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: ones that are involved in this White House, etc. Yeah, 610 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: of course there's crazy people all over the place commenting 611 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: online about this. But I think it's much more likely 612 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 1: that they would if they bring this indictment, which seems 613 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: like a better than I've been told by two former 614 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 1: attorney generals personally but without attribution, in effect, that they 615 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: think that they are going to indict Donald Trump. Yeah, 616 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: so let's call it better than fifty fifty. If they 617 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: indict him, the trial is happening now. The trial is 618 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: not going to be some huge sensational thing. By the way, 619 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: the problem with bringing the documents part of the trail. 620 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: Let's say it's the Marlago thing, the January sticks thing. 621 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: I think they probably can't make that stick, but maybe 622 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: they think they can if it is the mar Lago documents. 623 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: I know a bit about this because I had a 624 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: top secret clearance and I know how these things work. 625 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: You're never gonna find if they're never gonna stand up 626 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: in court and be like, see the nuclear codes written 627 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: on toilet paper next to the photo of Kim Jong Um, Like, 628 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: that's never gonna happen because you're exposing that they've become 629 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: part of the court record, and they say, oh, well, 630 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 1: we'll just have it secretively. Oh, you're gonna prosecute based 631 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: on secret evidence the former presidents of the United States. 632 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: That's not gonna fly. I think you though, you might 633 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 1: get into a phase where even if you get an indictment, 634 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: say on obstruction, which wouldn't require the documents and it's 635 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: rarely be public, that wouldn't be a central Let's say 636 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: they get Trump on criminal structure of justice, which they've 637 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: wanted Clay as you know since the Mueller probe, Joe 638 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,720 Speaker 1: Biden's in a position he will not pardon Trump, of course, 639 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: but he may commute. He may commute it, right, and 640 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 1: so then you have the indicted and convicted and commuted 641 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: former president running against Joe Budden. Does anyone think this 642 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: is too crazy? Because I think it's I'm not saying 643 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. I think it could happen. Yere's 644 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: the big thing I think that takes away. If you 645 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: strengthen Trump with your basse and get him the Republican nomination, 646 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: it would simultaneously crush him to have been indicted with 647 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: independent voters, and it would hand Democrats the White House. 648 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: So I think their play. I think there's a little 649 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: bit of four dimensional chess going on here is indict Trump, 650 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 1: which strengthens him with the base, makes him the nominee, 651 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: but weakens his chances to actually win in twenty twenty 652 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: four because independent voters, as we saw law, are not 653 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 1: breaking for Trump. They bought into this great Satan argument. 654 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: But Clay, you're leaving out here the big X factor, 655 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: which is if Hogan, the governor of Maryland, decides to run, 656 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: oh man, everything changes up the base. The base is 657 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: gonna flock to that guy. They'd be like, oh, we 658 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: don't need Trump. You got Hogan. Yeah, Larry Hogan, it's 659 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna be a great thing to have. Is 660 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 1: he the governor to even get that? Yeah, he is 661 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: the governor Maryland. Yeah, former governor Maryland. Is in buck 662 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: Sexton on the front lines of truth,
