1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. The second hour of Plan Bucks starts 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: right now, and we have been discussing on the show 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: pretty much daily last couple of weeks the prospect of 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: a Trump indictment by this Special Council. Jack Smith, let 6 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: me say this is one of those times where I 7 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 1: hope all of the reporting from the Democrat media is 8 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: wish casting. I hope that their whole mentality of the 9 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: walls are closing in and the obsession they have with 10 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: anything to get Trump is justified. At any moment. Now 11 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: they will finally get what they've wanted for years, which 12 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: is Trump to be branded a criminal and even to 13 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: spend time in a prison cell. That is what the 14 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: Democrat base wants. That is not a fringe belief among Demos. 15 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: That is what they want to happen. And I think 16 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: we have to take all of this seriously just because 17 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: one they've already indicted the Republican front runner in New 18 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: York City. Now that one I've said this all along, 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: I think my analysis is looking even more prescient, maybe 20 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: than when I first said it. I think the New 21 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: York indictment was the break in the dam for what 22 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: was going to come later. There's no downside for Alvin 23 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: Bragg in New York City to bring this criminal charge 24 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: against Trump. There's downside for the rule of law. There's 25 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: downside for New Yorkers who think to themselves, can Republicans 26 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: get a fair trial in this town? Is that really 27 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: a thing? 28 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: Now? 29 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: Are we not just a one party state politically? But 30 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: from a law and order judicial system criminal justice perspective? 31 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: Is New York City a place where you cannot go 32 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: a fair trial as a Republican? I think, you know, 33 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: unless maybe you're in like local court in Staten Island. 34 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: I think the answer is, yeah, you can't get a 35 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: fair trial, certainly if you're a Republican politician. Not with 36 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: Alvin Bragg calling the shots. So that was the first 37 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: prosecution as we know, that still to be decided. I 38 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: think that the case, the trial is set for what 39 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 1: is it next March? 40 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 3: Oh? 41 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: You mean right? And the absolute thick of the Republican primary. 42 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: It's a criminal trial. Trump's going to have to show up. 43 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: This isn't a civil trial. You can't have this in absentia. 44 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: You know the lawyers will handle it. It's a criminal trial. 45 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: As absurd as it is, that process is going to 46 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: go through. The process is the punishment. Don't ever forget it. 47 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: Democrats live by that maxim But now we have the 48 00:02:53,840 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: latest on the possible federal charges against Donald Trump. Now, 49 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: if you remember Andrew Weisman. Andrew Weisman, just as a 50 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: quick review was they called him Muller's pit pull. He 51 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: was the guy who was really running the first Special 52 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: Council investigation of Donald Trump under when when Trump was president, 53 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: the so called Muller probe. And then we had that 54 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: moment where they'd all said, oh, Muller, you know, Muller 55 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: is an FBI director and a former marine and as 56 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: an Americans as anybody could, you know, as much an 57 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: American patriot as anybody could ever be, and he'll do 58 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: what's right. And then we saw him up there and 59 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: he's like, well, you know, I don't really know what 60 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: you know, the stuff and the things and they're going 61 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: after you know, I don't know. And it it was 62 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: really shocked. I wasn't expecting that when they had Muller 63 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: finally being asked questions by Congress, and everyone goes, this 64 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: guy should have been retired many years ago. Why did 65 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: They do that because Weissman is a Democrat attack guy 66 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: and we all know it. So they had to have 67 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: Muller as the figurehead, Weissman as the guy who was 68 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: really trying to and the Trump presidency. He was hoping 69 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: to get a special counsel under Muller that would have 70 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: put forward charges, a recommendation of charges that even if 71 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: the DOJ, which you know it's Trump's DOJ, had not 72 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: acted on, would have been the basis for an impeachment 73 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: and removal proceeding in the Congress. That was the hope. 74 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: Obviously that didn't happen. But so Weissman is here saying 75 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: it is clear, and I want to tell you what 76 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: the reporting is on this week, and see, just because 77 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: he's a partisan hack doesn't mean that everything he says 78 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: is untrue. Even the most aggressive propagandists will tell you 79 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: all throughout history. You have to have some truth. You 80 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: can't just lie all the time. There has to be 81 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: some baseline truth. And I think the baseline truth here 82 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: for Weisman is charges against Trump, based on where things 83 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: are in the process are likely. And I'm not talking 84 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: about six months from now. These charges could come down 85 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: next week. That's what most people are saying here he 86 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: is play eight. 87 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 3: It is legally permissible and possible to tell someone they 88 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 3: are target, to issue a target letter, and for them 89 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 3: eventually not to be charged. But I think when you're 90 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 3: talking about the forum president, this is something that is 91 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: complying sort of with a pro former DJ rule and 92 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: is just something that happens before you charge. And I 93 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: think in any ways, it's not news. Everyone's known, including 94 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,239 Speaker 3: the defense camp, that Donald Trump has been the target 95 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 3: of this investigation for quite some time. This is really 96 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: a formality, and I think there's no question that he 97 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 3: is going to get charged. I think it's just a 98 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: question now when and if it's going to be in 99 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 3: Florida or DC. 100 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: Now they have a grand jury in Miami. This was 101 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: reported earlier this week, so as I'm talking to you here, 102 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: not far from where I am, they have a grand 103 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: jury that has been meeting in secret as they do, 104 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: and there have been senior Trump aids, a former Trump 105 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: spokesman and others have been called to testify in front 106 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: of that grand jury in Miami. Here in Florida, so 107 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: it could be DC, it could be Florida where the 108 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,559 Speaker 1: charges are officially and where the trial ends up being held. 109 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: But the point that he makes that I think we 110 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: have to look at seriously is everybody knows why is 111 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: it a special council because it involves Trump, Right, That's 112 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: how this whole thing came together. So of course he's 113 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: the target of the inquiry. Why is do oj informing 114 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: officially reported on here in the New York Times, It's 115 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: all over the place. Why are they reporting on this step? 116 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: Because I do think that this is just going through 117 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: the motions before they're going to put charges officially against Trump, 118 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: that he's going to be indicted. So what they're really 119 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: saying here this is from the New York Times piece 120 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: and this in court papers. Last year, prosecutors indicated that 121 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: they were scrutinizing whether mister Trump had broken laws governing 122 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: the handling of national security documents and whether he had 123 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: obstructed government efforts to retrieve them. Mister Trump was found 124 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: to have added more than three hundred documents with classified 125 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: markings at Mar A Lago, his private club and residence, 126 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: including some found in a search there by FBI agents 127 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: two months after lawyers for the president said a diligent 128 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: search had not turned up any more. Now here's where 129 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: this is going to be a big fight. Are the 130 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: documents classified? If Trump says they're not. It's not actually 131 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: an easy question for the Democrats who want to take 132 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: him down to answer. Not by the letter of the law, 133 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: he was the president of the United States. If he 134 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: says that he took these documents because he declassified them, 135 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: there's some process, but it's not codified process. It's if 136 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: the president. Let me give you what I mean. We 137 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: used to call it when I was the CIA. We 138 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: called it when a president goes on TV. It's real 139 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: time declassification. So if Obama went on TV, for example, 140 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: and he did in different capacities and say, yeah, there 141 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: are drone strikes we're doing in Pakistan. Whoa hold on 142 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: a second, Wait, we don't talk about that. Oh well, 143 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: he's the president. So he says it, and guess what 144 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: he's allowed to That is now real time declassification, something 145 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: that you know, lower level government employees would never be 146 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 1: able to talk about. So that's just the decision of 147 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 1: the commander in chief. So with them, and they're gonna, 148 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: I know, all the Democrats and all the lawyers that 149 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: hate Trump are gonna be oh my gosh, but you know, 150 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: there has to be a there has to be this 151 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: thing where he asked the community, and that's generally how 152 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: they do it, but that's not always how it's done. 153 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: And since it's not always how it's done, the reality here, 154 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: you could say the presidential custom has to be taken 155 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: into account. So what they're if the documents are not 156 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: in fact classified, meaning that Trump has declassified, this is 157 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: going to be at the heart of the dispute. What 158 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: are we even talking about now? What they're going to 159 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: say is that he that him and his people knew 160 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: they had documents that were still rightly classified, that they 161 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: lied about having those documents, and that's where the obstruction 162 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: comes in. They also may try to hit him with 163 00:09:51,960 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: a mishandling national defense information charge here now we will 164 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: see here we are Trump, by the way, responding on 165 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: truth Social Now. This was in response to him being 166 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: told he was going to be indicted. Reports were all 167 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: out on that yesterday. Trump responded, no one has told 168 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: me I'm being indicted, and I shouldn't be because I've 169 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: done nothing wrong. But I have assumed for years that 170 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: I am a target of the weaponized DOJ and FBI. Well, 171 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: he definitely is a target of the weaponized dj and FBI, 172 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 1: so we know that. I don't think they're going to 173 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: go through all of this. I don't think they're going 174 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: to go through this whole process and not bring charges. 175 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: I don't think the Democrat apparatus could allow that, right, 176 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: think about this from their side of the chessboard. They're 177 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: going to have another special council, another special council meant 178 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: to get Trump, and this one's also not gonna recommend 179 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: charges at the end. What a in an election year? 180 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 1: What are the chances of that? Right? Think about it 181 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: from the perspective of Democrat deviousness, Think about how they're 182 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: trying to play this out, and I think you get 183 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: to a much more likely place. So it's stunning that 184 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 1: this is where we are. It's upsetting because for the country, 185 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: this is such a this is such an abuse of 186 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: the public trust. Would they be bringing these charges against 187 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump if he wasn't running? Now? They do hate 188 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: him a lot, so it's possible that the answer is yes, 189 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: But I think most likely no. I think they view 190 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: this as an opportunity to stop him while he's running. 191 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: And think about the way this would be such a 192 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: flexing of muscles for the Democrat machinery. Not only will 193 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: they be saying we'll turn the DOJ against you, will 194 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: even do it in an election sear for your presidential 195 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: front runner. Oh oh, what message does that send to 196 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: all the rest of us? If you think that they 197 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't do this to anybody else, I think you know 198 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: you're not paying attention, right, We all know this. Their 199 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: belief is that by by taking Donald Trump and prosecuting 200 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: him while he's running for president, the chilling effect on 201 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: everybody else on the right, on all conservatives is, see, 202 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: we control this system. You think these elections matter will 203 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: get you no matter who you are, We'll get you, 204 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: even if you're a former president, if you stand in 205 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: our way, and if you threaten the system, Is that 206 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: the message that is going to be received? Is it 207 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: going out? I am sitting here, I pray for the 208 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: country that we do not have to go through this. 209 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: That the Democrats, maybe just for their own selfish reasons, 210 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: they think, oh wait, but if we do that, maybe 211 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: it'll rally everybody behind everybody behind Trump, and maybe you know, 212 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: then Trump will actually be in an even stronger position 213 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: to beat Biden. So it hasn't happened yet, But I 214 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: think psychologically the right has to prepare for this, and 215 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: what are we going to do about it? One thing 216 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: that I haven't heard from any but even the most 217 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: the most ardent of all of the people who are 218 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: in Trump's circling around him and the people that are 219 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: all in on voting for him as their candidate in 220 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: this primary, what is the response going to be? Yeah, 221 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: I'll fight it, I know that, but fighting it while 222 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: he's running that itself is unfair, right, So what are 223 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: we going to do? I haven't heard a good answer. 224 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: I don't have the answer yet, but maybe that's small 225 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: chance this doesn't come to pass. I think it will. 226 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: I think it will. I think the country has to 227 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: get ready for it, because this takes us into uncharted 228 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: territory in a really unsettling way.

One truth 246 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: revealed after another Clay Travis and Buck Sexton, things got 247 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: a little tense, oh sassy, little uh aggressive over on 248 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: the view between a couple of the co hosts. There 249 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: Sonny Houston, who is I believe the biggest leftist at 250 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: the table, someone who all all of she wholeheartedly endorses 251 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: all of the worst ideas of the Democrat left and 252 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: the and the socialist uh wackos in this country. And 253 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: then there's Alissa Farah Griffin, who is a former Trump 254 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: White House communications director who now makes a living trashing 255 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: Trump every day. That is her job is to go 256 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: to do trash Trump every day. But when Mike Pence 257 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: came up, they things. Things took an interesting turn here 258 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: and they it got a little nasty because Griffin is 259 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: not willing to just completely trash Pence, it seems, but 260 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: Sonny Houstin is one. 261 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 4: What scares me, Alyssa is that you are incapable of 262 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: defending a man that you worked for, that you know 263 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 4: a question. He did ask you a question, and you 264 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 4: said that you needed to hear more from him. And 265 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 4: I don't mean to hear more from Pence for several reasons, 266 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: because when I. 267 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: Excuse me of something, So why don't you let me 268 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 2: actually answer. You're not going to go over a poke. 269 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 4: I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna finish what I'm gonna say. 270 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 4: The thing about Pence here is that when I lived 271 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 4: in Indiana and I went to under Dame, he had 272 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 4: a terrible approval rating because of the way he treated 273 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 4: the AIDS crisis awful. 274 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: A lot of people died because of him. 275 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 4: A lot of people died because of how he handled. 276 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 2: The COVID crisis. 277 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 4: Kimmy's actually yesterday. 278 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: He also was a parent for Trump. Let's hear ye 279 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 2: likes to make it. 280 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: Sonny likes to make it personal. You hear this, ouch. 281 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: But here's the reality. Uh, it's a Democrat platform meant 282 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: to cater to the political ignorance and prejudices of Democrats. 283 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: So if you're there as a former Republican or an 284 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 1: independent or whatever, your job isn't to get to make 285 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: an argument. Your job isn't isn't isn't to say a 286 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: nice thing about Mike Pence. It is to be lectured 287 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 1: by libs about how awful you are. Right, that's the 288 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: whole Uh, there's a lesson in that, folks.

All right, 314 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the way the Biden administration claims 315 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: that it has been handling the issue of crime nationwide. 316 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: Crime is mostly a state and local issue, but there 317 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: are certainly federal components to it. And when you see 318 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: what the narrative is from the Democrats, the National Democrat 319 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: narrative starting in twenty twenty and how it has continued 320 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: to this day, you can see that something very much changed. 321 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: There's a a nonpartisan think tank, the Council on Criminal Justice. 322 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: This was looked at just a few what was it 323 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: a few months ago, and it says that it tells 324 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,239 Speaker 1: you that the following right, that so this is for 325 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: the beginning of twenty twenty three, that for last year, 326 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: that last year for which we have full data, the 327 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: homicide rate pretty much stayed the same across the Now 328 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: there are some who will try to tell you, oh, okay, 329 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: it dropped like three or four percent. Some will tell you, well, 330 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: you know, it dropped a little bit. It's up nationally 331 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 1: thirty percent since twenty nineteen, thirty four percent. Actually, so 332 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about a third, more than a third increase 333 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: in homicides that is now a durable new metric like 334 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: that line is staying where it is. And this is 335 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: something that would, I would hope would be a massive 336 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: priority of anybody in a position of politics to deal 337 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 1: with it. But I think you need to need to 338 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: hear this cree. Jean Pierre wants you to know that 339 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: the maiden administration has already dealt with the crime problem. 340 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: Play six. 341 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 5: Recent study shows that fifty percent of retail workers have 342 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 5: seen some sort of retail theft and another nearly fifty 343 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 5: percent are afraid to go to work. So is the 344 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 5: president aware of retail theft? And how come the problems 345 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 5: become so pervasive? Under is a ten years? 346 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 6: So look what I can tell you is, unlike congressional Republicans, 347 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 6: the President has taken action. He has taken action to 348 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 6: deal with the crime, hiring police officers. You've seen that 349 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 6: from his actions that he's taken to cut crime. And 350 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 6: it started with the American Rescue Plan. The American Rescue 351 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 6: Plan had billions of dollars that went into communities to 352 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 6: hire police officers. 353 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 2: So we have taken actions. 354 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 6: We have made sure that we do everything that we 355 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 6: can to try and protect communities and to make sure 356 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 6: that police officers are hired. 357 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just nonsense, right, what does she even 358 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: say hiring police? Okay, where are you hiring the police officers? 359 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: What are you telling the police officers to do? Well? 360 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: You don't as a federal government. You don't really tell 361 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: them anything, but what is their mission? Are they able 362 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: to do their jobs? Or's the Biden White House with 363 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: the DOJ thing? Is the intermediary going to make some 364 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: consent decree necessary for a police department? You know there 365 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: are police departments that, because of racism allegations, have federal 366 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: overwatch on them. And then everyone goes, oh gosh, and 367 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: they have to share all their data and who are 368 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,959 Speaker 1: they arresting and all the rest of it. Yeah, fifty percent, 369 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: think about that fifty percent. This is from the White House. 370 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: She's being asked this question by by It wasn't a 371 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: Fox News guy, I don't think. I don't know who 372 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: that was, but by one of the members of the 373 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 1: Press Corps. Fifty percent of retail workers are afraid to 374 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: go to work because of all the crime. Think about 375 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: that now, they're always telling you in these different cities. Oh, 376 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: but you know it's it's mostly just property crime. Why 377 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: should you have to worry if someone is willing to 378 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: go into a store that you work in and raisingly 379 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: not the old shoplifting. Can we just talk with this 380 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: for a second. It used to be shoplifting with somebody, 381 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, stole some merchandise, stuffed it up their shirt 382 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: or it'll put it in their pant leg and try 383 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: to walk out with nobody paying. That was our old 384 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: version of shoplifting, by and large in America. The new version, 385 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: the Democrat, the post George Floyd BLM two point zero 386 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 1: version of shoplifting is get a big bag like Santa 387 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: Claus would have, and fill it with all the gifts 388 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: you want, except it's stolen merchandise, and then just walk 389 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: out of the place. Just you know, take take the 390 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 1: big bag of your stolen goods, and know that the 391 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: retail workers around you, they feel demeaned in this process. 392 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: Their jobs are over the long run put at risk 393 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: by this process because the stores are getting robbed so 394 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: much that they can't make money and then they get 395 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 1: shut down. See San Francisco, what's going on there? See 396 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: the Whole Foods in downtown San franz that was supposed 397 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: to serve Twitter headquarters that had it was five hundred 398 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: and nine to one one calls in one year. Something 399 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: crazy like that. Four hundred and eighty or four fifty 400 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: or something more than one a day. Oh okay, what changed? Well, 401 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: when you have a criminal who walks into one of 402 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: these stores and understands that they can steal more in 403 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: five minutes than they would make in say, a minimum 404 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: wage job, in a day or a week. And they 405 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: don't care about the damage they're doing to society. They 406 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: don't care about theft as a bad thing that people 407 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: should not do. They know that the retail employees. I mean, 408 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 1: I mentioned to you yesterday the CEO of Lulu Levin 409 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 1: stands behind firing to employees for trying to stop somebody 410 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: from stealing. It's just stuff, he says. Okay, interesting, that's 411 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: one approach. And I mean, think about it. Those people 412 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: lost their jobs. They lost their jobs. They've been working 413 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: for this company in a Lulu Lemon, and they are 414 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: fired and treated horribly for trying to do the right thing, 415 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: which is to stop someone from stealing. But no Democrats, 416 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,880 Speaker 1: especially rich democrats, like the CEO of lul Lemon, it's 417 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: an opportunity to virtue signal. Oh you know, I don't care. 418 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: It's you know, people need it more than we do. 419 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 1: Let them steal, let them take this stuff will be fine. 420 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I might have to shut down a few 421 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,479 Speaker 1: stores and fire hard working people who show up and 422 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: do the right thing. But you know, I'll seem like 423 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: I'm a big supporter of Democrat left policies in all 424 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: of this. Oh wow, the team sent me this. This 425 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: is this is This gives you a sense of where 426 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: things are. This is from the New York Post. A 427 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: pair of shady teenagers sank to a new low when 428 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: they looted an eight year old boys Upper west Side 429 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: sidewalk lemonade stand. The crooks waited until Julian Lynn had 430 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,239 Speaker 1: his back turned. They snatched his money jar with one 431 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty dollars and ran away, well, drove away 432 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: on two scooters. It was a scooter drive by scooter theft. 433 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: I feel disappointed in humanity, the young entrepreneur told, I 434 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: love the Upper west Side dot com. I didn't realize 435 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: that somebody would want to rob an eight year old. 436 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 1: Of course they do. Of course they do. Rob robed 437 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: a little eight year old boy. Think about it, Think 438 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: about what kind of person does that? Do you think 439 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: the kind of person who would in broad daylight rob 440 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: an eight year old boys lemonade stand. Do you think 441 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: they're going to go on to be Rhodes scholars and 442 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: start their own businesses and do great things, I don't 443 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: think they're on a very good path. Do you think 444 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 1: it's better to let them get away with it, or 445 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: if the cops catch them, to just say, yeah, you know, 446 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 1: no big deal, no problem. We don't want to put 447 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: this on anyone's record. We don't want to make things 448 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: harder for them. Right, this is what's going on, and 449 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: every sane, honest person sees it. Democrats have gone as 450 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: far as they can to effectively legalize crime. This is 451 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: also why, going back to the stealing with bags full 452 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: of the stolen merchandise, even if the cops come, nothing's 453 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: going to happen to these people. They have no fear 454 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: any more of the consequences of their law breaking. So 455 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: why would they stop? Why would they stop? And this 456 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: is why when I say, when I say that these 457 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: are decisions that are being made, notice how many times 458 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: Democrat policies in the major cities we hear about some 459 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: horrible crime. Someone's you know, pushed another person in front 460 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: of a subway train. That happened recently in New York 461 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: City on the on the Upper East Side. A young 462 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: woman she's paralyzed now because some vagrant maniac through her 463 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: in front of a train. Guy is long history of 464 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: drug abuse, many interactions with police, all this stuff. How 465 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: many times can you get arrested before they do something? Well, 466 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, Alvin Bragg and the district attorneys in places 467 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: like Philadelphia, Saint Louis, San Francisco, their real approach is, look, 468 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: you steal as much as you want, We're not going 469 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: to do anything to you. You know, break into a car, 470 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: steal some cars, do all that stuff, you know, that's 471 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: that's just property crime. After the fiftieth the rest, though, 472 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: if we catch you because you murdered somebody, we might 473 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: have to lock you up for a bit. Seems to 474 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: be the mentality. These people who do the horrible things 475 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: have been arrested many, many, many times. Maybe it would 476 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: be better if there was some real punishment for all 477 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: of the crimes they had been doing before. Maybe they 478 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: would have been taken out of society for a while 479 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: so that they wouldn't have posed a risk to their 480 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: fellow human beings. This is not complicated stuff, really, it's 481 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: actually quite straightforward. But Democrats would rather live in a 482 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: country where they get to feel virtuous at the expense 483 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: of others, or they get to virtue signal among their 484 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: fancy friends at Malibu and Hampton's cocktail parties. While the 485 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: working people day to day, retail is one of the 486 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: biggest employers in the whole country. I think something like 487 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: ten percent of the workforce is in retail in some capacity. 488 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: Half of them are scared to do their jobs. Why 489 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: because if some maniac shows up half naked, you know, 490 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: throwing bottles of yurin around, stealing stuff and threatening to 491 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: stab somebody, the cops wil around say all right, we'll 492 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: kind of take him out of here, but the d's 493 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: gonna let him go. Welcome to Democrat Dystopia. That's the 494 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: country we live in now. I hope people take it 495 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: take this into account when they think about who they 496 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: want to put in power and who they're gonna vote for. Bud, 497 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: the brainwashing among the Libs is very powerful on this stuff. 498 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: Right onto something happy here. If you're one of the 499 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: millions of Americans who've watched one or more of Hillsdale 500 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: College's online video series, you're gonna love this news.

If we 519 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 7: don't become socialists all together, then the skies will turn 520 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 7: red and the seas will boil, and it's terrible. Bernie's 521 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 7: out there. You'll hear from Bernie in a second. It's 522 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 7: all about climate change. The smoke in New York can't 523 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 7: make this stuff up. Doesn't seem like there's anything we 524 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 7: can do to convince them to stop being so crazy. 525 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 7: It's pretty remarkable, but this is unfortunate. 526 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,719 Speaker 1: We actually, you know what here, let's start before we 527 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: get to wait, do we have do we have Bernie somewhere? 528 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: We'll get to Bernie in a few minutes. Something else. Though. 529 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: We were talking about the Trump The possible charges against 530 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: Trump likely. Now I think you can say they're imminent 531 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: is maybe too strong, but they're more than likely. This 532 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: is more than a coin flip. It's gonna happen, and 533 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen soon. What about the What about the 534 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: charges against the Biden crime family? 535 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: No? 536 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: I know there, It's not gonna happen with Joe Biden, 537 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: But what about Hunter Biden? This is interesting, isn't it? 538 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: The people every person who goes on TV. If we 539 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: lived in a world or a country where fairness in 540 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: the justice system was still the goal of both sides, 541 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you it is not the goal 542 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: for Democrats. They do not care. The same way that 543 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: journalism became an anti Trump operation, justice is now an 544 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: anti Trump operation as far as they are concerned. But 545 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: they should all be asked the question if Donald Trump 546 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: is so awful, if he's so bad and deserves these charges, 547 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: and that's just what the law demands, right, even the 548 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: good sense of protecting our polity going forward and not 549 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: criminalizing politics, that can't be the primary consideration the law 550 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: demands it. Okay, does the law not demand charges against 551 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden? The son of the sitting president. Senator Ran 552 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: Paul brings up this question about Hunter Biden and what 553 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: he was doing playclip twenty one. 554 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 8: There's certainly some irony to the fact that they impeached 555 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 8: Donald Trump because he tried to pressure people to investigate 556 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 8: the bribery scandal. Now the impeachment's gone, but the bribery 557 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 8: scandal is still there, and for the first time someone 558 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 8: looking at it. 559 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: I'm proud of Jamie Comer. He's from by State. 560 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 8: I think he's doing a great job investigating this and 561 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 8: they shouldn't let go. 562 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: I haven't seen. 563 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 8: Enough of the facts to know if Joe Biden was 564 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 8: involved with with accepting money. I think, without question, Hunter 565 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 8: Biden was accepting money and peddling his father's influence, and 566 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 8: I think much of that was illegal and hasn't been prosecuted. 567 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 8: Whether or not Joe Biden was directly involved, it should 568 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 8: be it should be investigated. 569 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:33,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hunter was pedling influence, Hunter was taking bribes. That's 570 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 1: what was happening. And you've noticed something here. The Clinton 571 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: Foundation was essentially a pass through for bride to the Clintons. 572 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: This has now become normalized among Democrats. Oh, sure, take 573 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: whatever money you want. We'll cover for you as long 574 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: as you're important to the party. You know what, I 575 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: think I wish Clay were here. We could talk about 576 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: this this right now. You know, when I think Hunter 577 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: Biden faces charges or has to worry about charges, when 578 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's no longer president and can't be run and 579 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: can't run for president again. So either when he steps 580 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: down if he were to win in twenty twenty four, 581 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,439 Speaker 1: or if you are pushed aside. Now, that's when Hunter 582 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: Biden because then he's not necessary for the party anymore. 583 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: The Democrats will toront say see justice really is blind, 584 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, right, where are the charges? Right now? 585 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: We've known about this. One of the reasons I've been 586 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: saying I don't think that they're going to do anything 587 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: real against Hunter Biden. The biggest way the machine can 588 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: protect The bidens is to make it go away. So 589 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 1: they say, oh, we've reached accommodation. Hunter is going to 590 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 1: pay a fine and he's going to be on probation 591 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: and he'll you know, plead to uh misdemeanor tax evasion 592 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,720 Speaker 1: or something, and you know that because then they say, see, 593 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: we dealt with it. The real issue is are they 594 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 1: willing to give him the same treatment they would give 595 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: any of you, which would be you're gonna go to 596 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: prison for a while. I don't think they're gonna do that. 597 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: I still don't see it. And it's certainly not in 598 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: an election year for Joe Biden, and not while Joe 599 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: Biden's in office. But I think it's important to keep 600 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: all this in mind as they pretend that this is 601 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,280 Speaker 1: all about the rule of law and it's all about 602 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: our justice system, and that's why Trump has to be indicted. 603 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: What they're ana lecture us about the rule of law. 604 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: The Biden crime family is laughing all the way to 605 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: the foreign bank account, and we're supposed to think that 606 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: this is no big deal. I'm sorry, we're not letting 607 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: this go. A lot of smoke up in New York. 608 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and Others are saying it's climate change. Talk 609 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,720 Speaker 1: about that and more coming up here in just a moment, 610 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: stick around team playing Buck going strong on this Thursday
