1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 2: Okay, our number three A wild and crazy day underway. 4 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 2: We got a lot to discuss with all of you. 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 2: If you've just gotten in your car, buckle up. You 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: probably have no idea what has happened in the first 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: two hours of the program so far. Actually breaking news 8 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: again during the commercial break, the FED has raised interest 9 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 2: rates another quarter of a point. This was expected, but 10 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 2: this brings the federal interest rate level to a twenty 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: two year high. 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 3: Thank you, Joe Biden. 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: As the battle to try and decrease inflation is ongoing, 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: according to the FED, this will make in theory, all 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: borrowing costs more expensive. The hope is that this will 16 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: be the last FED raise. And as I am looking 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 2: right now, Buck, it appears that this, this statement by 18 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 2: the FED and the action has basically totally unmoved the markets. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 2: In other words, this was the expected outcome and there 20 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 2: does not seem to be a move occurring very substantial 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 2: to one direction or the other. I would say one 22 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: minor negative that will come out of this is that 23 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 2: there was some hope the FED might indicate, hey, this 24 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 2: is going this we expect this to be our last 25 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: raise of the interest rates. There has not been that statement, 26 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 2: so the possibility of continuing to raise interest rates is 27 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: still out there as a part of future probability and 28 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 2: or discussion. All right, that just happened. Now what has 29 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: happened in the first two hours? And Buck, you're shaking 30 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: your head because you're I mean, even trying to explain 31 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: this is wild. If you're listening on the podcast, you 32 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: know enjoy. By the way, it's going to be an 33 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: hour long interview I did with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis 34 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: on the podcast Exclusive. Go sign up for Clay and Buck, 35 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: you'll be able to listen to that. He was in Nashville. 36 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: I talked with him yesterday. So if you are at 37 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: all interested in that. One of many reasons Buck does 38 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: a ton of interviews on that are podcast unique. 39 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: We've got the tutor Dixon. 40 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: I believe we're going to be announcing a couple of 41 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 2: additional people that are also a part of the podcast network. 42 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 2: In other words, as many of you are out there 43 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 2: traveling for the summer holiday season and you want things 44 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 2: to listen to. Certainly we love you guys listening to 45 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: the podcast and listening on the iHeartRadio app and all 46 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 2: of our fantastic affiliates out there. But if you subscribe 47 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 2: to the podcast, there are things that you truly cannot 48 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: find anywhere else, so you can get even more of us. 49 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 3: And if you are listening to the podcast in. 50 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 2: Those first couple of hours, you will hear a pretty 51 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: wild first couple of hours that includes buck the expectation 52 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: that the Hunter Biden plea agreement had fallen apart, then 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: the report that the Hunter Biden plea agreement was back on, 54 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 2: and then find a a assertion that the Hunter Biden 55 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 2: plea agreement had in fact fallen apart, and that there 56 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: had been a not guilty plea entered by Hunter Biden, 57 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 2: and that today's court hearing, which was expected by most 58 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: to be a rubber stamping of the sweetheart deal that 59 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,519 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden had worked out with Joe Biden's Department of Justice, 60 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: it was considered to be unacceptable by the judge in 61 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 2: this case, who we've been telling you for weeks the 62 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: law supported her not accepting this plea, and at least 63 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: for now she has said I cannot in good conscience 64 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: accept this plea. Credit to her so far, so I. 65 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 3: Said, it was like you were watching it as though 66 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 3: it was the Kentucky Derby and you would bet all 67 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 3: your money on one horse, and it was there were 68 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 3: really only two horses in the race. PLEA deal goes through, 69 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: plea deal doesn't, and it was a photo finish, and 70 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: there were numerous changes here in what the reality was. 71 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I still now back. The first thing I 72 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: said when we came on the air was well, you know, 73 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: and it ain't over till it's over. We got to 74 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 3: see what they end up doing here. So now they're 75 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: going into another negotiating phase. Now maybe Hunter and his 76 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 3: defense team and everything that former Governor CHRISTI said in 77 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 3: the last hour I think really tracks, which is what 78 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 3: should happen. Is there's a special counsel, which now means 79 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 3: you know, there's a whole now the special council could 80 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: slow walk this. You know that doesn't necessarily mean that 81 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: you're going to get something here that really approximates justice. 82 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 3: But I mean, if you don't get a special counsel, 83 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 3: which I still now he thinks you will, do you 84 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 3: think do you think he'll that Merrick Carland'll appointment. I 85 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: do not believe Merrick Garland at this point will appoint 86 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 3: a special council. But I think it's I think it's 87 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 3: a coin I mean, it's basically a coin flip proposition. 88 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 3: It's a lot closer than it would have been before 89 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 3: today because this is a catastrophe legally for them. 90 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, what I said on the show was I belie 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 2: believed if this judge would do what she should do 92 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 2: and reject the rubber stamp of this plea agreement, that 93 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 2: everything would fall apart and that Merrick Garland would have 94 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: to appoint a special counsel. Now I think he will, 95 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: and that's what Chris Christy just said. I'd encourage you 96 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: guys to go listen. And I got to give Chris 97 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 2: Christie a lot of credit. He wanted to come on 98 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: and talk about his presidential campaign, but this news broke 99 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 2: and in real time he actually his background is probably 100 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: the best almost in the entire Republican Party to discuss 101 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 2: what just happened. And so he turned into an analyst 102 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: breaking down the latest on that case. And he thinks 103 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: that a special counsel is likely. Here's the challenge and 104 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 2: here's why the Hunter Biden fix could still be in 105 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: buck even if a special counsel is appointed. 106 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 3: First of all, who is it? Who is it? What's 107 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 3: the timeline, what's the final dispensation of it? Remember, there 108 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 3: is a Biden special counsel. Now you thought they were 109 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: going to appoint one, And I was like, really, I 110 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 3: a that Biden special counsel is doing nada. Okay, it's 111 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 3: a joke. It was just for the optics of it. 112 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 4: It was just to make it. 113 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 2: People who forgotten in the Biden classified documents case. There 114 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 2: is now a special counsel who has been appointed in 115 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: the Biden classified document case. And we've heard nothing about it. 116 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: And I can assure you I mean this, I would 117 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: place a considerable bet on they're going to come out 118 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: with while it you know, is not good policy and 119 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: he shouldn't have done it. 120 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 3: He didn't mean to. And no harm, no foul for 121 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 3: Joe Biden. For Donald Trump mar Lago documents, it's you know, 122 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 3: to the Gulag. But yeah, for Joe Biden, very different approach. 123 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 3: And now I just think that what they're hoping happens 124 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: here is that they're able to get some kind of 125 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: a negotiation. Now, there's so many factors because those US 126 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 3: attorneys they look like buffoons, the ones that were that 127 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: were trying to get this done and have this deal, 128 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: and they look like total total clowns. So who's going 129 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: to be negotiating what's their appetite for that negotiation? Going forward, 130 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 3: the scrutiny on this is now much higher. People are 131 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 3: going to be having to pay attention in the media 132 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 3: that didn't want to pay attention really very much at 133 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: all to Clay. This was going to be a news story. Yeah, 134 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: there are people there. If this plea deal was accepted, 135 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: it's done tomorrow, you won't hear about it on New 136 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: York Times. You won't hear about it Ennesse CNN. It's 137 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: finished right now, It's not finished. And now the story 138 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 3: from the opposition meeting people like us to this Biden 139 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 3: corruption nonsense is going to be it was so bad 140 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 3: that they couldn't even put the fix in on this one. 141 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 3: I have to wonder, I mean, they if they do 142 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 3: a negotiation at this point that doesn't result in some 143 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 3: kind of enhanced sanctions against Hunter, then this really just 144 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 3: turns into delay. But if they do something where all 145 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 3: of a sudden Hunter faces I don't know, I mean 146 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 3: the charges that he's up against right now, could he 147 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 3: come back and and face trial and then face what 148 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: the judge's decision may be on them. I mean, it 149 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 3: feels like they have to get a deal, but they 150 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: have no leverage for a deal. 151 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're in a tough spot. So again, I always 152 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: think you have to think about this. When you have 153 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: an adversarial system, there should be two sides pushing against 154 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: each other. What I think we saw with this plea 155 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: agreement was every side was pulling in favor of Hunter Biden, 156 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: and that's how you end up with a sweetheart deal. 157 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: Right. 158 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: The prosecutor was actually in concert in many ways with 159 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's defense council to try to work this sweetheart deal. 160 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 2: So I would say a special council is likely now. 161 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 2: And the problem with the special council is it probably 162 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 2: means there's no resolution until after the election. Right, I 163 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: think it would be hard. Like now, maybe if you 164 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 2: could get a super active Republican prosecutor who was basically 165 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 2: the Jack Smith of Hunter Biden, maybe they could move 166 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 2: super fast and bring charges. But remember, and this is 167 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: a lot lot of people miss this. With a special council, 168 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: the special council doesn't have the authority to bring charges 169 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: without the agreements of the Attorney General, Mary. 170 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 3: The son of the president. That's what happens to actually 171 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: happened in the end. 172 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: So you could end up with a situation though if 173 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 2: you had a special counsel, and this extends to twenty 174 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: twenty four buck where if Biden were running, or even 175 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 2: if another Democrat were running, where Hunter Biden going to 176 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 2: jail or not is determined based on who wins the election, 177 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 2: and Donald Trump going to jail or not is determined 178 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 2: based on who wins the election, which is why you 179 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 2: don't what you never want to create is a scenario 180 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: where the election means that the family or the individual 181 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 2: running for office either wins and he puts his political 182 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: prisoners in prison, or he loses and he goes to prison. 183 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: That's what we've now created potentially, this dynamic. Now it's 184 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: fairer than Hey, nobody in my family faces consequences and 185 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: everybody on the opposing side has to go to prison, 186 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 2: which is what Joe Biden's Department of Justice has created 187 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: right now. But the challenge is the timing. And also now, 188 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 2: if you're representing Hunter Biden, let's pretend that you are 189 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's defense Atteme. 190 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 3: You wouldn't want to be You wouldn't be want to 191 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 3: be his lawyer. It's not a good This is not 192 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: an easy spot to be in, not a good spot 193 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 3: to be in. 194 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: But also, Buck, you're in the position of you feel 195 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 2: like you negotiated a deal if you're Hunter Biden's defense 196 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: attorneys and you in good faith said hey, we're going 197 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: to sign off on these two misdemeanors and we're going 198 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 2: to get protection for basically everything that Hunter did. 199 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 3: We're not going to get prosecuted. But what really happened here, Clay, 200 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 3: You know, there's the legal approach to it, which I 201 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: think is what you're setting off, which is, hey, come on, 202 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: this is the process working. Hunter Biden and his defense 203 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 3: team had thought and really had been given a get 204 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: out of jail free card, correct, And the judge looked 205 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 3: at this get out of j free card and was like, 206 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 3: this is too gross. I can't be a part of 207 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 3: this now. Maybe there's another get out of jail free 208 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: card that comes up in a week or a month, 209 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: or we'll have to see what the final resolution of 210 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: this is. But they were negotiating with a prosecution where 211 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 3: everybody knew Joe Biden's son. This is the way we're 212 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: going to handle this. This is the expectation. And it 213 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: was the judge who stepped in. The prosecutors were going 214 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: along with it. Correct, correct, And that's what I said. 215 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 3: I give credit to this judge because I've been calling 216 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 3: her out for a month. Go back and listen to 217 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 3: the transcripts that the evidence in the law was clear 218 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 3: that she couldn't accept this. She didn't, which took some spine. 219 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: Now, if you're the da right, if you're the prosecutor, 220 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: you have to get more from Hunter Biden in order 221 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 2: to get some kind of plea agreement. But cause you 222 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 2: could say, in good faith, hey, the judge wouldn't sign 223 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 2: off on this. We need to have something more on 224 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: your side in order to agree to this. And then 225 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: the Biden people and the defense side can say, wait 226 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 2: a minute, you told us this was the deal. Now 227 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 2: you want us to come back and give more. Which 228 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: is why I think the special counsel gets appointed. And 229 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 2: if you're Merrick Garland, I mean this dude, I've been 230 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: saying for a long time, I think is a sham. 231 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 3: I think he deserves to be impeached. 232 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 2: The only reason I don't think you should focus on 233 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: impeaching Merrick Garland candidly is because I think Joe Biden 234 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: has done more, and he is Merrick Garland's boss. 235 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: Attorney. Generals are expendable politically, I mean that, So that's 236 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 3: not going to stop anything or change anything. I think 237 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: under the Biden regime, he'll just get some other crony 238 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 3: in there. So I agree with you. I think you've 239 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 3: got to go right to the top with the the 240 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 3: Biden impeachment. But on this with Hunter, I do think 241 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: there's still maybe a possibility here that what they do 242 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: is they say, okay, well we'll also take a plea 243 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 3: on the Farah charge. I don't even know if that's 244 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 3: if that could work out, because they haven't brought that 245 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: indictment yet. I don't know if they just go back 246 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 3: and say, can we just do the original deal even 247 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: if there's no immunity for the additional stuff. I mean, 248 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 3: that's how the negotiation would have to look at this point. 249 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: But like I said, they're not in a position where 250 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 3: they think that they can probably get quite the same 251 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: thing that they got before, right, I mean, that was 252 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 3: the best deal in the history of our legal system 253 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 3: for anybody you know, in living memory, that's probably off 254 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 3: the table now. But is there still a scale down? 255 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 3: Hunter gets to skate pretty much scot free. I think 256 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 3: that's possible. I will have to see. And here's a 257 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 3: couple of other things too. Buck By the way, Wall 258 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 3: Street Journal just arrived alert. Here's their headline. In a 259 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 3: stunning reversal, Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty to tax charges 260 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 3: after a judge said she wasn't prepared to sign off 261 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 3: on a plan. Plea deal you can pull up, we'll 262 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 3: look at I'm just kind of curious how this is 263 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 3: playing in the CNNMSNBC World. The headline of the New 264 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 3: York Times to the credit number one story live right 265 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: at the top. Judge puts Hunter Biden plea on hold 266 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 3: after questions on deal's scope. And then there's a quote 267 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: from somebody inside the courtroom. Judge Mary Ellen Noriyaika repeatedly, 268 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: at times angrily, said she felt like she was being 269 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 3: asked to rubber stamp an agreement. She had quote serious 270 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 3: concerns about. 271 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 4: This. 272 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: This doesn't just so over understands how obvious the corruption 273 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 3: and the fix was here. Ninety seven percent, give or 274 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 3: take of federal criminal trials result in a plea agreement. 275 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 3: We just had Chris Christi on before he was a 276 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 3: federal prosecutor who was a US attorney for seven years, 277 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: never even heard of this before. Yeah, okay, I don't 278 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 3: even know if you could find a situation where a 279 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 3: deal is on off on off. Certainly not a high 280 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 3: profile deal like they never supposed to end a federal 281 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 3: court yep. But they pushed so much. They were so 282 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 3: just greedy in their corruption. Really, and Hunter with his 283 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: little get out of jail free card was just so 284 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: such an unrepentant little slime ball that the judge was like, 285 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 3: I just I'm sorry, guys, there are some limits. There 286 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 3: are some limits to the scumminess that will be allowed 287 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 3: in this courtroom. And you're right credit to her. Oh 288 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 3: the pressure that's gonna be on her now, Clay, Oh 289 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 3: get you know, if she has anything in her background, 290 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 3: anything in her past, all of a sudden, MSNBC, you're 291 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 3: gonna see the full ferocity of the lib media going 292 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 3: after this woman or family and everything else, because as 293 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 3: we know, Merrick Garland won't do you know, they can 294 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 3: protest outside of her house that's already been established with 295 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court justices. 296 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 2: Do you think anybody's willing to protest over Hunter Ydeen. 297 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 2: That's what we talk about it when we come back. Yeah, 298 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 2: it takes a lot. It takes a lot to write 299 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: a book. We've both done it.

What is 332 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 3: going on here? 333 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 5: Well, you know I've been talking about this for weeks, Fellas, 334 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 5: that I didn't think this judge would approve this plate 335 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 5: because it didn't make any sense to give him a 336 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 5: plead to a two count misdemeanor tax deal and to 337 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 5: dismiss the gun charge and to give him immunity going 338 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 5: forward made no sense, and I didn't think a judge 339 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 5: would prove it. And I've been saying that for weeks. 340 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 5: And I'm glad that the judge showed that someone's paying 341 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 5: attention here and who cares about justice being done, and 342 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 5: she obviously does and made sure that she wasn't going 343 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 5: to approve this deal under those circumstances. And so it's 344 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 5: one felt he pled not guilty. They say they have 345 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 5: an ongoing investigation into other matters that they will not 346 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 5: give him immunity for, so you know, he's back in 347 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 5: the jackpot. 348 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 3: All right. 349 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 2: So I'm curious. We're talking to Chris Christy. You are 350 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: a US attorney for a long time. Have you ever 351 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 2: had a plea deal fall apart in open court like this? 352 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 3: Point one? Point two? 353 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: Why don't And in situations like these, shouldn't there be 354 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 2: cameras in federal courthouse so instead of relying on the 355 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 2: few handful of reporters that might actually be there in 356 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: matters of this magnitude, shouldn't the American public be able 357 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 2: to watch these play out in real time, whether it's 358 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 2: this case or potentially a Trump prosecution down the road. 359 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I never had a plea deal 360 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 5: full to a open court, and certainly I'm not you 361 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 5: would never let it happen on a cases prominent and 362 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 5: noteworthy as. 363 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:14,959 Speaker 3: So this is unprecedented. 364 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 2: That's what I just want to get at for people 365 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: out there listening like this just doesn't happen in your experience, 366 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: and you're pretty well experienced in these kind of cases. 367 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 5: I ran the fifth largest office in the country for 368 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 5: seven years and we we did one hundred and thirty 369 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 5: political corruption prosecutions without a defeat. 370 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 4: We're one hundred and thirty and zero. I never sa 371 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 4: like this. 372 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 5: Secondly, as for cameras in the quorum, I have a 373 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 5: problem with cameras in the courtrum at all. 374 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 4: I look. 375 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 5: I think that there are times when people will put 376 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 5: on a bit more of a show in the court 377 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 5: room if they know it's on TV. But otherwise I 378 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 5: think the trade off you get in transparency for the 379 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 5: public to see exactly what's going on and be able 380 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 5: to make their own evaluations of what's going on on, 381 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 5: almost like a public jury. Who's going to sit out 382 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 5: there and actually be able to see it rather than 383 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 5: read the characterizations. I think the trade off getting that 384 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 5: is worthit. You know, strionics you might see in a 385 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 5: courtroom because of cameras. 386 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 2: Okay, so you've been in these situations for a long 387 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: time as a US attorney. What will happen now in 388 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: your mind associated with the Hunter Biden investigation, and maybe 389 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 2: more importantly, what should happen if Chris Christy were Attorney 390 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 2: General of the United States, how would you handle this? 391 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 5: Well, if I were returning to the United States right now, 392 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 5: I would end all of this bologna that's been going 393 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 5: on and appoint a special counsel. You know, you simply 394 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 5: can't be seen as objective now that there are very 395 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 5: clear allegations from whistle blowers about potential involvement in the 396 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 5: president of the United States and you're prosecuting the sitting 397 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 5: president's sun there should be a special council. Ends of discussion. 398 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 5: I mean, this is not even it wasn't a close 399 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 5: call before. Now I don't know how Merrick Carland says, 400 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, US Attorney Weiss is qualified to handle this. 401 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 5: US Attorney Wis couldn't get a plea deal approved. I mean, 402 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 5: the incompetence on this from the government side of it 403 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 5: is breathtaking, breathtaking. And yeah, the defense attorneys have a 404 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 5: problem as well. They should have had this button down 405 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 5: or they should have never walked into the courtroom, but 406 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 5: they don't have the burden to proof and they don't 407 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 5: have the power of the government behind them. I would 408 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 5: tell you this, if I aus Is who had screwed 409 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 5: this thing up this badly, they'd be looking for a 410 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 5: new job. And I probably would be looking for a 411 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 5: new job too if I had overseen it that way. 412 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 4: So you know, my point to you is the. 413 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 5: Most important thing now, I think is for the Attorney 414 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 5: General to stop the charade, get rid of us Attorney 415 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 5: Weiss off of this case, and a point a special 416 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 5: counsel who can investigate everything and do it independently. 417 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 3: Speaking of Gunnor, Chris Christi, former governor of New Jersey, 418 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 3: he's running for president and Governor Christy in that regard, 419 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: do you think that additional charges are imminent against your 420 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 3: top competitor in the Republican field, Donald Trump? And how 421 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 3: do you see that playing out? 422 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 5: Because I can tell you that I never sent the 423 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 5: target letter to someone unless I already knew that I 424 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 5: had more than enough evidence to indict them. And so 425 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 5: I think once the target letter was sent laying out 426 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 5: specific statutes that they were the target of an investigation, 427 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 5: I think that it is inevitable that Donald Trump will 428 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 5: be indicted by the Special Council for a second time. 429 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 5: It will involve the three statutes that were cited in 430 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 5: the target letter, it may involve other ones as well, 431 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 5: and it may involve you don't know that. But what 432 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 5: I do know from the target letter is no US 433 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 5: attorney is or in this case, Special Council is going 434 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 5: to send the target letter without having every tension of 435 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 5: indicting the target. 436 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 2: We're talking to former New Jersey Governor Chris Christy's running 437 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 2: for president in the Republican primary. Sorry, this Hunter Biden 438 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 2: thing is just so crazy, and I know you're trying 439 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 2: to get your hands wrapped around it as we are 440 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 2: as well, And I just want to reiterate for our audience. 441 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 2: You did seven years of prosecutions one hundred and thirty, 442 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 2: I think you said, of political based prosecutions, when one 443 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty and zero you've never seen anything happen 444 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: like what happened here. 445 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: What is Is there any. 446 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 2: Doubt in your mind that if Hunter Biden weren't the 447 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 2: son of the President of the United States, that he'd 448 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 2: be facing serious jail time based on your knowledge of 449 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 2: the criminal code. And second part of that, I asked 450 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: you what should happen? What do you think will happen? 451 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: Like if you're Joe Biden and you're Merrick Garland and 452 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 2: you've just seen everything blow up like this. First of all, 453 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,439 Speaker 2: it's blown up in such a public way, Governor that 454 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 2: even all these people who don't want to cover the 455 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's story, you know, this is the proverbial crap 456 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 2: hits the fan moment where everything's spread in every direction 457 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 2: and it's almost impossible even for them to cover up. 458 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 2: What do you think they're thinking? Put Buck and I 459 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 2: like to talk as if we were, you know, the 460 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 2: other side. Sometimes let's presume Joe Biden's brain actually works 461 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: and he's capable of having a rational discussion with reasoned advisors. 462 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: What would that discussion look like? What do you think 463 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 2: they're saying right now? 464 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 5: Look, I think that if you're advising the president at 465 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 5: this point, if the President is. I don't think the 466 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 5: President should have conversations with Mereck Carland because I think 467 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 5: it would be even more inappropriate for him to talk 468 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 5: to Merrick Garland about this. Merrick Garland should know on 469 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 5: his own that it's ballgame here, game over playing with 470 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 5: US attorney weis. Yes, he was appointed by Donald Trump, 471 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 5: but I gotta tell you it looks like he's pretty 472 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 5: frigging incompetent. I gotta tell you the truth, and Merrick 473 00:24:53,320 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 5: Garland should be calling the White House. In an hour, 474 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 5: I'm sending out a press release announcing the special counsel. 475 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 5: That's it, because now appears that you know, an independent 476 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 5: federal judge has said that this plea deal. She's now 477 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 5: said what I've been saying for weeks, that this plea 478 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 5: deal makes no sense. You can make no sense of 479 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 5: why the defense is doing this or why the prosecution 480 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 5: is doing it. And as a result, if something makes 481 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 5: no sense, what I learned in this business, Fellows, is 482 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 5: there are no coincidences, none, and you need to have 483 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 5: a special counsel come and look at this. 484 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 4: And I think that is what will happen. 485 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 5: I don't think that you can avoid it if you're 486 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 5: Merrick Ireland anymore, who's gonna have confidence in US attorney 487 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 5: weis after you couldn't get plead deal passed a judge that, 488 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 5: by the way, his office probably appears before five days 489 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 5: a week. Delaware is not a big place. There's not 490 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 5: that many judges there. This judge probably has a usas 491 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 5: from the Delaware office appearing before her on a daily basis. 492 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 4: And if she won't trust what they're doing, how the 493 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 4: hell should we trust it? 494 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 3: If you were thinking about this from the perspective of 495 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 3: the Hunter Biden defense team, what do you think their 496 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 3: play is now? Assuming that the special counsel, let's put 497 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 3: that aside for a second, what would their next ups 498 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: here be. 499 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 5: Well, their first move is gonna be said, shoot, we 500 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 5: almost got away with it. 501 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 4: That's gonna be the first thing. 502 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 5: Then they didn't get away with I think now you 503 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 5: know they're gonna have to see they're gonna reactive mode 504 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 5: now because they can any longer assert that they have 505 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 5: an agreement. So now that's why they answer it to 506 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 5: not guilty play because it was an arrangement, And an 507 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 5: arrangement is when the purpose of an arraignment is for 508 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 5: a defendant to either enter a guilty or not guilty plea. 509 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 5: If it's a guilty like it was supposed to be today, 510 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 5: then the judge goes through what's called an allocution, where 511 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 5: the judge asks serious questions to establish the factual basis 512 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 5: for Hunter Biden's guilty plea and the legal basis for it, 513 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 5: and the fact that he was doing so freely with 514 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 5: advice of counsel and not under duress of any kind. 515 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 5: Once all those questions are answered, and assume they're answered 516 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 5: in the affirmative, then and only then would she accept 517 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 5: the guilty plea. So now she has an arraignment that 518 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 5: she thought was a guilty plead with no guilty plea. 519 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 5: You can't just turn the arrayment with doing nothing. So 520 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 5: she says, okay, I'm not accepting this plea, Hunter, what's 521 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 5: your pleasure? And they answered a not guilty plea, And 522 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 5: now they're going to go back to the US Attorney's office. 523 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 5: My guess is they try to see how the US 524 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 5: Attorney's Office reacts, and before anything happens with a special counsel, 525 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 5: they try to negotiate at another plea. That's why I 526 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 5: think the Attorney General has to step in. We cannot 527 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 5: trust this US Attorney's office to negotiate another plea after 528 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 5: they so royally messed up this one. And so I 529 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 5: think if your Hunters lawyers you think you almost got 530 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 5: away with it, you didn't. So now you've got to 531 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 5: try one more time. But my guess is that they 532 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 5: won't get another chance to negotiate a plea, at least 533 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 5: not with the Delaware US Attorney's Office. My guesses they're 534 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,479 Speaker 5: going to have to see US counsel. 535 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 4: Well. 536 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 2: First of all, we need to get you on again 537 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 2: because the timing on this ended up being perfect for 538 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 2: you to break down this crazy breaking news. 539 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 3: Happen areo guys, But we didn't. 540 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 2: We didn't get a chance to get let you kind 541 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: of get into the political realm. But this was killer. 542 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 2: Thank you for breaking this all down for us. I mean, 543 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 2: I can't imagine there being a better guest that could. 544 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 3: Have put them.

I 551 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 5: love the Department of Justice when it's done the right way, 552 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 5: and I will as isn't it. 553 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 4: I'll let you know. 554 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 5: I will appoint an Attorney General who will prosecute these 555 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 5: cases without fear, favor or partisanship. And we're going to 556 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 5: restore the Department of Justice to what it was when 557 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 5: I work, which was the place that protected the country 558 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 5: from nine to eleven and stopped corporate crime and stopped 559 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 5: political crime. This obviously the Biden White House doesn't care 560 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 5: a lot about any of that stuff, and they better 561 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 5: get their act together and appoint a special counsel. So 562 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 5: thanks for having me on, Fellas, and I'll be happy 563 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 5: to come back when it's good for all of you 564 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 5: and we can talk about as much politics as you like. 565 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 3: Sounds as thank you. 566 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: Appreciate that, Governor Chris Christy, I mean, perfect timing.

So stay tuned because this is I 569 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 2: think it's fair as a blockbuster news associated with Hunter 570 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 2: Biden in the meantime nine to eleven. On nine to eleven, 571 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 2: we lost two thousand, nine hundred and seventy seven people, 572 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 2: and today nine to eleven related illnesses continue to take lives, 573 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 2: yet a whole generation knows little to nothing about our 574 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: nation's darkest day.

Yeah, let's let's 610 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 3: play part of what the h the testimony is likely 611 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 3: to center around here. Play it if you believe we 612 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 3: have crashed craft, stated earlier, do we have the bodies 613 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: of the pilots who piloted this craft? 614 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 6: As I've stated publicly already in my news station interview, 615 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 6: biologics came with some of these recoveries. 616 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, were they I guess human or non human? Biologics? 617 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 4: Non human? 618 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 6: And that was the assessment of people which recknowledge on 619 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 6: the program I talked to that are currently still on 620 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 6: the program. 621 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 3: Okay, So he's straight up saying that we've pulled aliens 622 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 3: out of space with the under oath, Right, that's what 623 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 3: he's saying. I'm not missing this. That's what he did 624 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 3: say this morning. It started at ten am Eastern. So 625 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 3: what's going on here, Clay? 626 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, first of all, can I just 627 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 2: say the fact that they scheduled the Hunter Biden the 628 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: Plea Agreement for the exact time that some guy was 629 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 2: going to sit down under oath and say we've taken 630 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 2: non human biologic life forms, basically aliens out of alien spacecraft. 631 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 2: I mean, this is crazy, right, I mean, this is 632 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 2: next level under oath testimony. So this guy is willing 633 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: to potentially be put in prison as a perjurer in 634 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 2: order to either makeup that we have uncovered alien life 635 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 2: inside of crash alien planes, or or he is so 636 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: crazy that he believes his untruth, which would make it 637 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: harder to charge him with perjury because he may truly 638 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 2: believe a lie. I mean, this is this is blockbuster 639 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 2: stuff and for it to be occurring again under oath 640 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 2: in Congress. This is not you and me, Buck driving along. 641 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 4: Uh. 642 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 2: You know we take a call from some guy and 643 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,439 Speaker 2: he calls in and says, hey, you know, I'm out 644 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 2: in location here. I mean, this is under oath in 645 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 2: Congress testimony today that there have been alien spacecraft that 646 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 2: have crashed in Earth, and that we have removed dead 647 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 2: aliens from those spacecraft. Now here are my thoughts. And 648 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 2: I guarantee you eight hundred and two eight two two 649 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 2: eight eight two we are going to be deluged in 650 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 2: calls over. 651 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 3: We got some some colorful phone calls yesterday from well. 652 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 2: I don't doubt that at all if this has happened. 653 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 2: So my anytime there is a story like this that occurs, 654 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 2: how many people would know this? 655 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 3: Okay? 656 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: Is my first thought because to you or me, Buck, 657 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 2: if let's say that there are twenty five people that 658 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 2: show up in an alien space craft and remove dead 659 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 2: alien bodies. That would seem like it's something to keep 660 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 2: really quiet. I mean, if you or I you're in 661 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 2: the CIA, do you think if you had shown up 662 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 2: at an alien spacecraft and there had been dead bodies 663 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 2: that were not human pulled off that spacecraft, that you 664 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 2: would have been able to not tell anyone about that. 665 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 2: I mean, even here, zero percent chance that that could 666 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 2: be kept secret. Paced on my time in the Central 667 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 2: Intelligence Agency and knowing the people who work there and 668 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 2: their mindset. 669 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 3: No chance you're pulling the equivalent of little green men 670 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 3: out of a flying saucer that has crashed again to 671 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: that point, really good at intergalactic travel or whatever, not 672 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 3: so good at avoiding the rocky mountains or something. Yeah, 673 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 3: but yeah, look, I don't believe it. Okay, this guy's 674 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 3: testifying Capitol Hill. If people can get mad at me, 675 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,359 Speaker 3: they can say I don't know anything, and I don't 676 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: know anything about UFOs, and I would love to know 677 00:35:55,560 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 3: a lot about UFOs, and I understand. And you know, 678 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 3: it always falls back into like, well, you can't I 679 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 3: know tomorrow. No one can break the future. I always 680 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 3: say it, tomorrow there could be you know, remember the 681 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 3: show V You know, we could have the aliens that 682 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 3: are actually lizards that look like people and all that stuff. 683 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 3: I don't know. No one can tell you what tomorrow 684 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 3: is gonna bring. Do I think that the federal also? 685 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 3: Do I think the federal government has been covering this up? 686 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 3: I do not, And I would just ask why would 687 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 3: they cover it up too? Like what's the well, what's 688 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 3: the incentive so we can have their like super badass 689 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 3: technology or something that's kind of what I always here. 690 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 3: But I go, well, why, yeah, that's a great and 691 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 3: technology that's so amazing that we can't say we got 692 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 3: from aliens in the first place if we got it, 693 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 3: which we didn't, because this is all crazy. 694 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 2: Well, so my first thought is conspiracies are hard to 695 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 2: keep up, especially conspiracies that just take a step back 696 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:58,720 Speaker 2: are incredible stories. So it's hard to keep people silent 697 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 2: on things for a long time. The more people that 698 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 2: are involved, the less likely it is that it can 699 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 2: stay silent. Now you can say, well, this guy's testifying 700 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 2: under oath. Clearly it's not staying silent. But I would say, 701 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 2: if he's correct, it would mean that there are dead 702 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,240 Speaker 2: alien bodies somewhere in the United States government's control. 703 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 3: Right, Presumably we didn't just bury. 704 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 2: These dead alien bodies like in a field somewhere, but 705 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: we would think, I would think we would conduct an autopsy, 706 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 2: like look into the bodies, what are they, how are 707 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: they constructed? 708 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 3: What do they look like? And can you admit this? 709 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 4: Good? 710 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 3: The question? Yeah? Can I admit something about this? It's 711 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 3: a little bit like the JFK files for me too, 712 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 3: where they're hiding something, and it's usually that when the 713 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 3: government is hiding things from you, it's usually not things 714 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 3: that are really awesome. I'm just gonna again drawing on 715 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 3: what I know from you know, CIA stuff. It's not 716 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,879 Speaker 3: that it's so cool or so interesting in secret, it's 717 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 3: that it's embarrassing in some capacity for the government. That's 718 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 3: the that's the most Why won't they release this thing 719 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 3: from fifty years ago? Who can now? Why can't we 720 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 3: all know? Because government agencies still they view themselves as 721 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,720 Speaker 3: brands in a sense, right, I mean, like the FBI 722 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 3: brand has gotten very beaten up last few years among 723 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 3: others and others, and they don't really want the you know, 724 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 3: those government agencies don't want to be they don't want 725 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 3: to look foolish, They don't want to look dishonest, whatever, 726 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 3: whatever it may be, anything related to UFOs. The only 727 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 3: reasons I could see for them to keep it secret, 728 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 3: and this is what this goes to, is they there 729 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 3: is some sensitive technological research they're doing that somehow this 730 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 3: touches upon. That's the most charitable version of it for 731 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 3: the government side, or they look bad we're doing some 732 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 3: kind of weird experiments or meaning the government that they 733 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 3: don't want us to know about. You know this Representative Burchett, 734 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 3: he's a Tennessee guy. 735 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 4: You know. 736 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 3: I've met him, I think, but I don't know him personally. 737 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 3: Here he is cut thirteen. He's talking about this. He's 738 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 3: one of the leading lawmakers behind this investigation. Play it. 739 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. 740 00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 7: I don't want people to think we're going to bring 741 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 7: in little Green Man or a flying saucer in this thing. 742 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 7: But this is starting the floodgates, and these gentlemen are 743 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 7: coming forward with what they see. These are first hand accounts. 744 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 7: Isn't some good old boy back in the woods who's 745 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 7: had too much to smoke or drink and he spotted something. 746 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 7: These are trained pilots and experts in their field. I 747 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 7: would say that the tic tac of videos are proof enough. 748 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 7: They have no vapor trail, there is no heat signature, 749 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 7: there is nothing, and they defy all of our laws 750 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 7: of physics. The pilots can't define it, the scientists can't 751 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 7: define it. It is not the Russians. They wouldn't be 752 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 7: in Ukraine, it wouldn't be China. They already own us, 753 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 7: but they would really own us, and it's not us. 754 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 7: So where's it coming from? 755 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 3: So you know, you're very you know, reasonable when he talks. 756 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 2: Over Yeah, So your question of why would they keep 757 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: this hidden is I think fascinating. So one is buck 758 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: I could see them believing that there are amazing technological 759 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: advantages that they could get by constructing this alien spacecraft, 760 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 2: and if they crashed for some reason in the United States, 761 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 2: we don't want China to know that We're trying to 762 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 2: unpack whatever their technology is for future advantages in combat. 763 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 2: That would be one. Again, I still think it would 764 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: be very hard to keep it quiet. Two would be, 765 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,759 Speaker 2: and this is more ominous. Two would be they have 766 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:26,479 Speaker 2: discovered that there is alien life, and that alien life 767 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 2: has basically told us, hey, we can destroy your planet 768 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 2: at any point. In time, and they don't want a 769 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 2: panic to ensue because all of human life is basically 770 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 2: in the hands of people that we really don't understand 771 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 2: in any comprehend in any way. And how much panic 772 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: DoD we think about what COVID did? Okay, think about 773 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 2: what COVID did that killed what point one percent? You know, 774 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 2: ninety nine point nine percent of you got COVID and 775 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 2: you were fine if, for instance, and a life form 776 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 2: had arrived here and said, hey, you know, we have 777 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 2: the ability to obliterate all human life in the snap 778 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 2: of our fingers, if we decide to do so. I 779 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 2: would think that would probably create a little bit of 780 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 2: a panic in the United States and around the world. 781 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 3: Weren't you a creative writing major along with the history major, right? 782 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 3: Or you have a creative writing degree? Because that was 783 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm ready for the screenplay, my man, you're 784 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 3: good to go with that one. 785 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 2: I like, well, I mean, I just I think through 786 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:30,240 Speaker 2: what would create a conspiracy of silence? One is, okay, 787 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 2: we're trying to gain a competitive advantage, right to answer 788 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 2: your question, because I think it's a good one. Two is, 789 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 2: all of humanity is under direct mortal peril and they 790 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 2: know that panic will ensue if they tell us how 791 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 2: much mortal peril we're actually in. Don't mean literally, there 792 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: is a great premise for a movie, right, like trying 793 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 2: to keep it from everybody that once in a while 794 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 2: we get a visit and they're like, hey, I don't know, 795 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: we might have to just vaporize your whole planet, you know, 796 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 2: but we're like, no, please don't, and then we have 797 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 2: to pay them off somehow. I don't know the question 798 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 2: that I come back to again, and we're going to 799 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,360 Speaker 2: take some calls on this. Maybe we'll ask Chris Christy 800 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 2: what he thinks, not only about the plea agreement in 801 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 2: uh in Delaware. He's got a wide scope of potential 802 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 2: topics here as we typically cover every single day, but also, yeah, 803 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:13,760 Speaker 2: I'm I'm sorry. 804 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm getting lit up already by the emails lit 805 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 3: up just because. 806 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't see it because they're mad at 807 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 2: you for saying, yeah, look, I mean, there's your real 808 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 2: ally here. 809 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:25,720 Speaker 3: I am on the record. 810 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 2: I think that there are is alien life forms than 811 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 2: that they have visited Earth. 812 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 3: That I'm on the record. And by the way, Buck, 813 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 3: let me just say this, I would not be stunned. 814 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 3: I really wouldn't. 815 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 2: If we look at some of the things that have 816 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 2: been created in ancient history. Oh my god, I'm not kidding, 817 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 2: the Pyramids, stone, the stone hinge of the city. I 818 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:56,359 Speaker 2: would not be surprised if superior UH technology has been 819 00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:02,280 Speaker 2: shared at some point in time historically UH in human life. 820 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 2: Because here's the other thing. If you believe that aliens 821 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 2: have visited our planet, by the way, could be time travelers. 822 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: You want to get even creepier. What if it's not 823 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: alien life forms? What if there is just the ability 824 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 2: that somewhere in the future they unlock the ability to 825 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 2: travel back in time, and then they crashier every now 826 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 2: and then, and we're totally threatening the space time continuum 827 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,760 Speaker 2: if we in any way acknowledge what might have happened. 828 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 2: I'm just saying I have expansive like universe of potential 829 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: outcomes every day in life, and so none of those 830 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 2: things would stun me, right would you? 831 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 3: Guys don't know? Is that Clay has a flex capacitor 832 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 3: in his radio studio. Think about it. 833 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 2: If aliens are capable of traveling to America today, let's 834 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: say they're gonna come. It's twenty twenty three. Why wouldn't 835 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 2: they be have been able to come in thirteen twenty 836 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 2: three or eight twenty three, right, Like, why wouldn't that 837 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 2: have been possible at some point in time? 838 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 3: Look, I think the movie Predator is fantastic, and you know, 839 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 3: who knows, maybe they just show up. Sometimes they do 840 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 3: some kind of trophy hunting and you know what I mean, 841 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 3: I don't know your. 842 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 2: Here's one that'll really blow your mind, Buck, what if 843 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 2: the asteroid that killed all the dinosaurs wasn't actually an asteroid? 844 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 2: What if it was in some way propelled by an 845 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: alien species to test something on Earth hundreds of millions 846 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:32,879 Speaker 2: of years ago. 847 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 3: I just want the millions of people who are listening 848 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 3: right now across the country to know that, according to 849 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 3: at least some of the vip emails were getting, I'm 850 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 3: the crazy one. I'm going to sitting here. 851 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm not giving a yes or no. I'm 852 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 2: saying like I am, like I am. I have a 853 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 2: wide range of possibilities that I will consider on any topic. 854 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 2: I just I think, look, historically, Buck, if you and 855 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 2: I had been doing this show in sixteen forty, I 856 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 2: don't know how the show would have been distributed. We're 857 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 2: sitting up on a stage and there are all these 858 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,320 Speaker 2: people throwing tomatoes at us right like while we're talking. 859 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,919 Speaker 2: We could have thought in sixteen forty, we would have said, 860 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 2: we've discovered everything. There's nothing else that humans could ever 861 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 2: uncover about life, and we would have looked laughably absurd. 862 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 3: Fifty years later, one hundred years later, and. 863 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 2: Today we'll look back like the most brilliant people of 864 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 2: their age would have said, Hey, you're sick, let me 865 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,399 Speaker 2: go get a bunch of leeches, will flood, will take 866 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,280 Speaker 2: out as much of your blood as possible. 867 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 3: That's going to get you healthy. 868 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,320 Speaker 2: So I'm skeptical of science and of people who claim 869 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 2: that they know the You. 870 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 3: See, this is the this is the move in the 871 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 3: goalpost with the UFO thing that drives me insane. I 872 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 3: make no promises, have no analysis, no thoughts about whether 873 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 3: UFOs will visit the earth, whether something could happen. I'm 874 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 3: only interested in what has happened, and I think it 875 00:45:58,160 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 3: has happened. I think they've been here. 876 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,399 Speaker 2: This is it's a leap of faith right now, that 877 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 2: guy just testified, not only have they been here, we 878 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 2: took bodies out. Now that seems like a step beyond. 879 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 3: It seems like I miss I missed the guys in 880 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 3: the eighties and flannels and trucker hats who were like 881 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 3: then the aliens grabbed me outside the bar, and it's like, wait, 882 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 3: what you know be and how many people have seen them? 883 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 2: I mean, can we get the guy who testified about 884 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 2: the alien bodies on Congress? 885 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 3: Get them on. We're gonna have to get them on, 886 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 3: and I'm you know, it's gonna be the reverse of 887 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 3: the pens. They would be like are you serious, or 888 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 3: be like, hey, hey, he's an expert. He's trying to 889 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 3: answer questions. All right, we'll get back in. Well, we'll 890 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 3: take your emails and calls on the UFO thing.

Man's energy comes 893 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 3: from the testosterone in our bodies, not from UFOs or 894 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 3: out of space. But that reservoir off testosterone can run 895 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,200 Speaker 3: lower than it showed, especially with age over time. You 896 00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 3: can try to power through it. You can try to 897 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 3: just drink more coffee, but why not to actually do 898 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 3: something that'll really help over the long term. Chalk nutritional supplements. 899 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 3: They have the Male Vitality Stack, and the leading ingredient 900 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 3: in this all natural formulation has been proven in studies 901 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,360 Speaker 3: to replenish diminished amounts of testosterone in a man's body. 902 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 3: Studies show a plus twenty percent increase of T levels 903 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 3: in three months time with consumption every day.

Feels like forever ago almost that we discussed this, 918 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 2: but I saw this this morning. 919 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 3: Overall woke attacks. 920 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 2: As long as you don't apologize again woke attacks, they're 921 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 2: collapsing this whole idea of cancel culture. It's actually turning 922 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,720 Speaker 2: into an incredible advertisement for most normal people. And here's 923 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 2: the latest evidence of that. Jason Aldean song Try That 924 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 2: in a Small Town. The sales grew buck twenty seven 925 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 2: thousand percent after this song got attacked for being racist, 926 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 2: and it is now on the Billboard one hundred list. 927 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,479 Speaker 2: This is all songs, not just country songs, every type 928 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,280 Speaker 2: of song. It's now number two on the Billboard one hundred. 929 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 2: It is the biggest Billboard hit of Jason Aldean's career. 930 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 2: And for those of you out there who are Jason 931 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: Aldean listeners, the previous high was for I Think Dirt 932 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 2: Road Anthem, which was a song that a lot of 933 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 2: people know. It got up to number seven on the 934 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 2: Billboard list. So this has exploded in Jason Aldean's favor, 935 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 2: proving once again these woke attackers, no one actually likes them. 936 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 3: Well, the right and I would even argue just the 937 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 3: same in this country are starting to see more and 938 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,959 Speaker 3: more that you don't just vote an election on election day, 939 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 3: you know, you vote in a sense with whose content 940 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 3: you consume, with whose products you buy, and it matters, 941 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 3: and you have opportunities here. You know, it's how easy 942 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 3: is it to go? And I don't know if people 943 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 3: even still pay for downloads, but you know, to go 944 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 3: download and listen to the you know, Jason Aldean song 945 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,880 Speaker 3: or go watch it on YouTube. How easy is it 946 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 3: to you? Any of the sponsors we have on this program. 947 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 3: I'm always very open about this. The sponsor are in 948 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 3: a partnership with us, and so if you agree with 949 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:04,879 Speaker 3: us our message what we're trying to do to get 950 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: the truth out for the country, you were voting for 951 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 3: that message by you know, buying a pillow or you know, 952 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 3: Pure Talk or any of our sponsors. Right, that's decisions 953 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 3: are being made all the time. And I think particularly 954 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 3: now because of bud Light and because of Targets and 955 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 3: Disney and on a lot of although, can I ask 956 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 3: you a question? I'm meaning to ask you because someone 957 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,919 Speaker 3: brought this. Someone brought this to my attention a friend 958 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 3: of mine who knows you actually from the sports world 959 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 3: before listening to the show, and he was saying, Clay's 960 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 3: right about the NBA ratings in America. But if you 961 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 3: look at the NBA. This is now going to wokeness 962 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 3: and whether it's at the league. If you look at 963 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 3: NBA contracts, they're bigger than ever because the NBA is 964 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 3: now a global game, not a United States game. Well 965 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: that's why they won't call out China, right, which is 966 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 3: what my number one issue has been for Mark Cuban. 967 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 2: So yes, it is true that like, do they care 968 00:50:56,560 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 2: basically about what's happened stateside? That's that's the question. Yeah, 969 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 2: they should because I think it's still the foundational element 970 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 2: of their ability to pay players insane amounts of money 971 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 2: and also for the franchise values to be increasing. But 972 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 2: it is a smart question to recognize that there is 973 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 2: a global pull and that's why. Look, I don't have 974 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 2: any problem and be clear, if Saudi Arabia tourism in 975 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 2: my opinion, we haven't talked about this before. 976 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:23,280 Speaker 3: You might have a different opinion. 977 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,439 Speaker 2: But if they came to us and they said, hey, 978 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 2: we want to bring you to the fanciest city in 979 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia and we want you to do a week 980 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 2: long show about Saudi Arabian economic development, I'm just tossing 981 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 2: this out there. Nobody has pitched it I would say, yeah, 982 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 2: I'm open to that idea, because I'm not expecting that 983 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia is going to have the exact same values 984 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:49,320 Speaker 2: as the United States, right, And so I wouldn't go 985 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 2: to China because I'm not sure you and I buck 986 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,279 Speaker 2: would come back. Like, I wouldn't actually feel safe to 987 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 2: go to China because I think for what we say 988 00:51:56,560 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 2: to about China where the situation there. But what I'm 989 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 2: saying is like, I'll give you an example, WWE, you 990 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 2: grew up a wrestling fan. I grew up a wrestling fan. 991 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 2: Lots of people out there listening to us, like Hulkogan 992 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 2: and Macho Man and Jimmy Superfly, Snooka and. 993 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 3: All those guys. 994 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 2: Right, the WWE does events in Saudi Arabia, they do 995 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,400 Speaker 2: events all over the world now, But nobody in the 996 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 2: WWE has ever lectured me and told me that America 997 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 2: is an awful place and that I should be embarrassed 998 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 2: by what's going on in my own country. 999 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 3: So I don't. 1000 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 2: Judge the WWE by the standard of their lecturing. Their 1001 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 2: an entertainment brand. Their goal is to be as big 1002 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 2: as they can possibly be as a global entertainment brand. 1003 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 3: I get it. I mean, if you're going to lecture 1004 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 3: America about its failings, you should be willing to as 1005 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 3: an American, you should be willing to also speak up 1006 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,719 Speaker 3: in defense of basic human rights in China. But I 1007 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 3: did think it's interesting because I'm seeing some of these 1008 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 3: Not that I pay much attention to this, but it's 1009 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 3: such some of these NBA contracts are so big now 1010 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 3: that they are just general news. Some guy just got 1011 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 3: like a three hundred million dollars around million, right, And 1012 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 3: also you may in Saudi Arabia Killian Imbape, whom I 1013 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 3: know from Europe soccer player, and I follow soccer much 1014 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 3: more closely than I do basketball. But you know, it 1015 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 3: is what it is. What do you get seven hundred 1016 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,399 Speaker 3: what was it seven hundred million? In saying I don't 1017 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 3: even know what the dollar figure. I think it's a 1018 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:20,320 Speaker 3: seven hundred million in Audi Arabia contract in Saudi Arabia 1019 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 3: to go play soccer. I mean, you're starting to get 1020 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,240 Speaker 3: toward the place where you're going to have billion dollar 1021 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 3: sports contracts for people, Yes, which is pretty you know, 1022 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 3: for I don't know, four years or five years or 1023 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 3: it's pretty crazy money. And it's because these are now 1024 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 3: global market places, which I also think has influenced that 1025 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 3: the dynamics quite a bit there and uh, and I'm 1026 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 3: also wondering if we can get to some of the uh, 1027 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 3: some of the do we want to do. 1028 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 2: Some of the Yeah, by the way, for those of 1029 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 2: you out there that are just tuning in, we need 1030 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 2: to play that audio again.
