As you may remember, 144 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 5: it was assassinated November of nineteen sixty three in Dallas. 145 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 5: The prime suspect was Lee Harvey Oswald, and he was 146 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 5: murdered two days later by a nightclub owner by the 147 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 5: name of Jack Ruby, spurring lasting debate about whether Oswald 148 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 5: was part of or a patsy in a shadowy conspiracy. Oswald, 149 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 5: a Marine Corps veteran, defected to the Soviet Union four 150 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 5: years before the assassination and later returned to the US. 151 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 5: In late September of sixty three, Oswald both visited the 152 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 5: Cuban consulate in Mexico City and contact the Soviet embassy there. 153 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 5: This is part of why there's so many questions surrounding 154 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 5: the assassination. And apparently now we may have to wait 155 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 5: a few days, but we're going to hear the entire 156 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 5: story because Donald Trump said I am in favor of 157 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 5: transparency in our government, even on issues like this. 158 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 4: And lastly's story number three, what. 159 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 5: Donald Trump said in a sit down interview with Sean 160 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 5: Hannity is now making waves after the fact because Donald 161 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 5: Trump made it pretty queer that he didn't believe he 162 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 5: needed a preemptive pardon and was never going to give 163 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 5: himself a preemptive pardon. So why did Joe Biden give 164 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 5: so many out to his family members? Well, then he 165 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 5: said he also made a big mistake, referring to President 166 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 5: Joe Biden. Take a listen again carefully to the way 167 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 5: that Donald Trump describes it. 168 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 3: He heard that I was going to do I didn't 169 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 3: want to do it. I was given the option. They said, sure, 170 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 3: would you like to pardon everybody, including yourself. I said, 171 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 3: I'm not going to pardon anybody. We didn't do anything wrong. 172 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: And we had people that suffered, their incredible patriots. We 173 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: had people that suffered. You had Bennon put in jail, 174 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 3: you had Peter Navarro put in jail. You had people 175 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 3: that suffered, and far worse than that. They've lost their fortunes, 176 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 3: They've lost their whatever, their nest egg, paying it to 177 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 3: lawyers and those people, and people said to you, and 178 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: they don't even they wouldn't have even taken most of 179 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: those people. They wouldn't have even taken a parton. This 180 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: guy went to run giving everybody pardons, and you know 181 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 3: that the funny thing, maybe the sad thing, is he 182 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: didn't give himself a pardon. 183 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 5: He didn't give himself a pardon. So I asked Senatra 184 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 5: Cruz about this, and it was very interesting because he's 185 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 5: now saying that those that got pardons aren't actually out 186 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 5: of the woods yet, especially if Congress asks them to 187 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 5: come testify, because they will not be able to not 188 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 5: answer those questions. And if they still choose to not 189 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 5: answer those questions because they won't have the ability to 190 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 5: plead the fifth since they've been given a full pardon 191 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 5: and don't have to worry about being prosecuted, they could 192 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 5: be held in contempt of Congress. Take a listen. 193 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 2: By the way, one of the results of all these 194 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 2: pardons is that Congress can now subpoena the members of 195 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: the Biden family and force them to answer questions under 196 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 2: oath and they don't have a Fifth Amendment right to 197 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 2: decline to answer. 198 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 5: Really, okay, So a lot of you to know that, 199 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 5: including me, So explain that a little bit for everybody, 200 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 5: because that is that is big news. 201 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: So the Fifth Amendment says that you can't be forced 202 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 2: to testify against yourself. Now, that only applies if you 203 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: have criminal jeopardy. If you can be prosecuted. Once you've 204 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 2: been pardoned, you have no criminal jeopardy, which means you 205 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: don't have the right to say, I'm not going to 206 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: answer that because I might incriminate myself in a crime. 207 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 2: Because it's a federal crime, you can't be prosecuted for it, 208 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 2: which means if you refuse to answer, you can be 209 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: held in contempt and put in jail. And so it 210 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: it has changed, I will. 211 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 5: Be there's a very there's a very real chance that 212 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 5: members of the Biden crime family that were pardon could 213 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 5: be asked to come and testify in Congress and they 214 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 5: would be forced to answer the questions for the reasons 215 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 5: you just stated, yep. And if they don't. 216 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 2: By the way, same is true about Fauci that you know, 217 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: you know, Biden pardon Fauci. That means Fauci doesn't have 218 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: a Fifth Amendment right to refuse to answer questions under oath. 219 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 2: I certainly hope that he's forced to answer those questions. 220 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: And I got to say so. 221 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 5: On hypothetically, you get Fauci in front of you, you 222 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 5: start asking him questions and he just refuses to answer 223 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 5: those questions. Is that in contempt of Congress? 224 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 2: At that point, well, Congress has to vote to hold 225 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: him in contempt for refusing to answer those questions, and 226 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: then the Department of Justice has to prosecute him. I 227 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: got to say, I think if Congress voted to hold 228 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: him in contempt, I think DOJ would prosecute him. And 229 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 2: by the way, to be clear, the Biden Department of 230 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: Justice Trump mentioned putting Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro in prison. 231 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: They did that because they held them in contempt to Congress, 232 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: and that was even aside from pleading the fifth there 233 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: they just refused to testify, and they argued they asserted 234 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 2: executive privilege, and DOJ prosecuted them after Congress, after the 235 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 2: House voter to hold him in contempt of Congress. 236 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 5: The moral of the story is, if your last same 237 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 5: as Biden and you got a pardon, well you may 238 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 5: be careful what you wish for. And as for the 239 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 5: former president, you may think you're running off in the sunset, 240 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 5: and it may not be as simple as that. 241 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 4: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 242 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 4: with Ben Ferguson.
