I want to take a second to remind you to sign up for the Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:06.760
It'll be one email that's sent to you every day.
00:00:08.640
You can stop the endless scrolling, trying to find out what's going on in your world.
00:00:11.720
We will have this delivered directly to you totally for free.
00:00:40.160
For every lie they tell, we're going to get in their face and yell two truths.
00:00:45.580
This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.
00:00:53.260
But I believe if we keep pushing, we're going to continue to make progress.
00:01:10.320
The DOJ sued Texas and Governor Greg Abbott, yay, for violating federal law by installing
00:01:18.660
buoys which are endangering migrants trying to cross the river.
00:01:22.980
What they don't tell you is that the illegal crossings at ports of entry have skyrocketed
00:01:28.960
Governor's and their history here, you know, there's a sense of inevitability that's built
00:01:39.000
Could Ron DeSantis be the latest in that group?
00:01:43.700
If you're looking at this case, is your expectation that these are going to be individual charges
00:01:47.340
or does this fold into a broader RICO racketeering case?
00:01:58.760
And the prosecutor said, then there is no deal.
00:02:00.700
So Biden's team said that the plea agreement, as far as they understood, it was now null
00:02:05.900
They were moving ahead to talk about what the next steps would be in this case.
00:02:09.160
So as of right now, the deal appears to be dead and off the table.
00:02:15.040
Today's edition human events with Jack Posobiec.
00:02:20.660
And the Hunter Biden plea deal has completely fallen apart in a Delaware court.
00:02:30.140
We're getting information directly from the courtroom.
00:02:34.460
We're looking at this, trying to figure out what's going on.
00:02:36.700
But essentially, folks, essentially what you need to know is that the hearing that went
00:02:40.500
today, which remember, this was supposed to be a simple hearing.
00:02:46.840
This was supposed to be a normal hearing, very quiet.
00:02:51.060
And Hunter Biden was supposed to be able to walk home today.
00:02:54.800
Not guilty with his plea deal, all the rest of it, or not, I should say, not going to
00:03:01.980
He was going to plead guilty and then he was going to go out.
00:03:06.040
The judge took a look at this thing and said they've never seen a plea deal in federal court
00:03:17.880
How do you have a guy that's done all of these things?
00:03:23.000
And he seems to think that you're never going to prosecute him, even for things that aren't
00:03:27.880
mentioned in this, specifically the FARA violations when it came to Ukraine and China,
00:03:34.800
which, by the way, for the record, some of us have been talking about for four years.
00:03:39.500
I love all these conservative leaders that are suddenly talking about it for the last
00:03:44.620
Yeah, some of us have been doing it since 2019.
00:03:50.720
Turns out, this comes out under the judge's questioning.
00:03:54.740
The DOJ says, well, there are continuing investigations, ongoing investigations.
00:03:59.440
Biden turns around and says his lawyers say, wait a minute, I don't want continuing investigations.
00:04:04.860
I wanted to be free and clear from all of this.
00:04:07.540
The judge looking at him saying, yeah, that doesn't make any sense.
00:04:11.100
Do you understand what the DOJ was trying to do?
00:04:14.620
The DOJ was trying to give him a pass for everything without even saying it.
00:04:21.920
Do you honestly think that Hunter Biden is going to be prosecuted ever for those charges?
00:04:31.400
Sure, the case will be open and it'll be quietly shelved in some office.
00:04:35.700
And they'll just leave it open until Joe Biden leaves office.
00:04:44.880
As Ron DeSantis would say, threw a monkey wrench into those works.
00:04:49.740
Because now you've got a situation where Hunter Biden wasn't able to accept the plea deal.
00:05:05.180
So Hunter Biden, I don't know, maybe you've got a little bit more free time on your hands.
00:05:16.560
I hope that the riptides aren't too bad, buddy.
00:05:19.160
But look, Hunter Biden, you are a liability now.
00:05:38.520
You think they want you able to keep singing from your sheet of music?
00:05:45.400
When you take money from people like that, it don't come without strings, Hunter.
00:05:57.500
All I got to say is stay off the paddle boards, Hunter.
00:06:07.020
He's going to give you the legal background of what we saw transpire here.
00:06:10.900
Because, admittedly, it is completely unprecedented.
00:06:13.240
But first, we've got Richard Barris, the People's Pundit, to go through all of the new polls.
00:06:17.560
We're going to talk about, is the primary still going?
00:06:25.000
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:06:29.020
What if I told you that the parent company for a major diaper brand out there today
00:06:34.880
was actually paying the travel costs so that their employees could get an abortion?
00:06:48.640
It's another thing entirely to support the elimination of your customers.
00:06:54.540
If you are parents sickened by this, and the woke corporation supporting the destruction
00:06:58.320
of American values, and our most precious blessing, our children, I want you to meet Every Life,
00:07:07.880

That's everylife.com, everylife.com, promo code POSO.
00:07:57.520
Look, folks, complete insanity out of Delaware today, and I got to bring my guy on, Richard Barris, the People's Pundit,
00:08:05.920
because, Rich, you have been so maligned lately for committing the unforgivable sin in the mainstream media of being right.
00:08:20.100
Okay, you were right about the 30 points in Iowa.
00:08:22.140
Then you were right about the DeSantis campaign going around to donors,
00:08:27.540
saying that the indictments will take out Trump, they'll take Trump out of the race.
00:08:34.740
One-third to 40%, actually, if you include last week and this week,
00:08:41.460
Rich, this is the question I'm going to ask you at this point.
00:08:50.360
The bottom line is, Jack, and, you know, I just revealed this last hour on my own before you aired.
00:08:58.260
Last week, he was forced to cancel events in New York.
00:09:02.060
The DeSantis campaign does not have small-dollar contributions, and that is the key metric for, you know,
00:09:08.820
vitality or long-term, you know, solvency in a campaign.
00:09:15.860
So he was trying to go to some of the smaller donors.
00:09:18.780
They're not mega donors, but they can give $5,000.
00:09:23.220
They reduced the cost of the plate from $6,600 to $3,300.
00:09:26.860
I personally got calls from donors asking me, is it worth going to this thing?
00:09:34.980
So if he can't get money from those donors anymore, Jack, and then he's dropping staff like crazy,
00:09:45.760
He's not going to do – at this point, let me ask you,
00:09:48.460
what would he be able to do to get the grassroots to open their wallets and give donations like they give to Donald Trump?
00:09:55.020
82% of Donald Trump's donations are low-dollar contributions, and that matters because they don't max out,
00:10:01.580
and they can continue to give your campaign an injection when it needs it.
00:10:05.700
He is not getting that, and it went from 12 staffers to a third,
00:10:10.500
and now he's just not having success in re-upping that money.
00:10:22.240
So at this point, that's the money situation, and then the polling situation has been dire for Ron DeSantis.
00:10:31.300
Nobody in 2016 at a 50 or above a level of support, let alone with 30, 40-point leads.
00:10:42.920
The truth is, I think it was always overstated how competitive this primary ever was, and that's the real truth.
00:10:50.900
I mean, Rich, when it comes to these type of situations, now we've had some reporting already that potentially this Never Back Down Pack, Super Pack,
00:11:04.640
is potentially looking at other candidates, trying to get other people into the race.
00:11:10.160
And now I know that was going around yesterday, Caroline Wren, who is a fundraiser, not quite a bundler, but almost.
00:11:20.940
I don't think she'd like me in such a way by calling her a bundler.
00:11:23.880
But the idea is that she's very tapped in in the fundraising circuit, that world.
00:11:29.360
She said they've been looking around for another candidate.
00:11:35.460
I haven't even tweeted this yet, but I'll put it out now.
00:11:37.960
That, yes, they are looking for another candidate, but guess what?
00:11:42.000
The other candidates are saying, yeah, no thanks.
00:11:45.300
That Yunkin, Brian Kemp, some of these other names, they have been reached out to, but guess what?
00:11:56.220
Because they see the polls and they say, look, if Governor DeSantis couldn't do this with the year that he spent building a national brand,
00:12:05.640
how do you expect us to do it in less than six months?
00:12:08.860
That's the breaking news that I'm putting out here on Human Events today.
00:12:17.780
Out of the three we spoke to last week, all like Wall Street donors, all three said it was a revolving door with Tim Scott.
00:12:25.240
He's always been very good to them and responsive to them.
00:12:33.960
The other one's still looking for somebody and can't find someone.
00:12:37.140
So that is the situation out of the three we spoke to last week about those events.
00:12:45.460
And also, you know, worth bringing up, Jack, that people are so far behind in things like the endorsement races at this point.
00:12:53.780
It would take an enormous effort to, you know, really raise someone's profile to that level.
00:13:00.460
And what they're seeing is that when you do and you try to challenge Trump, it just ends up with a lot of wasted money and it drives your negative up with Republicans.
00:13:08.800
So a lot of these other candidates are saying, no, thanks.
00:13:13.720
And I'm not going to I'm just not going to do this right now.
00:13:17.060
That being said, you know, the sad again, I think I talked to you about this last week.
00:13:21.880
The sad part about this is the Republicans should understand how much money has been wasted instead of, you know, and Tom Bevin from Real Clear Politics yesterday tweeted all this money.
00:13:32.660
And Ron DeSantis is at the lowest position he's ever been in the RCP average.
00:13:37.200
Think about the money that could have been spent towards matching or trying to match Democrats in what is a far more sophisticated get out the vote than Republicans even have begun to understand.
00:13:50.820
And yet this is what they've chosen to waste their money and time on.
00:13:59.400
When it comes to when it comes to, you know, and let's go back to this a little bit.
00:14:03.860
And I said this on stage at Turning Point and and this is so it's Governor DeSantis and his team decided to skip the Turning Point event, a huge snub to Turning Point after Turning Point held multiple events for DeSantis or at least with DeSantis across the country.
00:14:22.860
This is Turning Point Action, the C4 political arm down in the state of Florida, his sitting state, but also in Ohio, in Pennsylvania, in Arizona.
00:14:33.240
You know, these were joint events with candidates that were also running J.D. Vance, Carrie Lake, Doug Mastriano in Pennsylvania.
00:14:38.320
DeSantis was flown out with joint with Turning Point Action.
00:14:41.200
So he makes the decision not to come out there.
00:14:45.340
And I said on the stage, I said, look, I genuinely would have liked the governor to come because I would have liked to ask, what was the thought process?
00:14:55.040
Just what was the thought process going into this?
00:14:57.600
Did you really think that people were just going to abandon Trump after all that they've gone through, that all that he's gone through?
00:15:06.140
Because at the end of the day, it's I think the Republican electorate looks at this thing as though there's two islands.
00:15:13.140
OK, there's two islands. There's us and there's them.
00:15:18.500
And this is the reason that Vivek is doing well, because he's acting as if he's one of them.
00:15:28.200
Yeah, right or wrong. Right. So he hasn't made an enemy of them.
00:15:35.600
And I think, you know, really dodging Turning Point, you didn't lose any small dollar contributors.
00:15:43.000
His main problem right now or you wouldn't have lost any had you showed up.
00:15:47.420
Let me put that correctly. His main problem right now is a lack of grassroots support.
00:15:51.840
So for him to bail on, you know, what is the future of the grassroots of the party and, you know, and instead pursue the same strategy is, you know, in hindsight.
00:16:03.400
Now, knowing what we know about where the campaign is deficient is just incredibly stupid.
00:16:08.180
And then on the other note of what the mindset was, Jack, the mindset.
00:16:13.240
And I've been telling everybody this now and now it's being reported by The New York Times and everyone else.
00:16:22.040
We're going to be the de facto replacement candidate when the indictments take out Donald Trump.
00:16:34.380
You came on here week after week saying that that was their strategy.
00:16:37.480
Then it was corroborated by The New York Times.
00:16:39.720
Now you've got them out on their donor call saying it this week.
00:16:43.400
And I knew it because their donors are the ones who told me.
00:16:54.180
And they want to know whether they're going to get a return on their investment, Jack, and they're not going to take the campaign polls to reward for it.
00:17:03.660
And at the end of the day, now it's being reported by everybody else.
00:17:12.240
That was only ever going to make those islands.
00:17:15.900
Those indictments are just separating the distance between those two islands.
00:17:20.700
The indictments are just pushing them further away.
00:17:23.020
And they're saying, you're either going to be here with us or you're over there with them.
00:17:27.360
And anyone who is even seen as being associated with this effort to indict this president, this former president, whom they love, is going to get burned.
00:17:37.540
It doesn't matter if they're ultimately successful in taking them off the ballot.
00:17:42.720
There was never going to be a suitable or a replacement candidate that they would have just accepted.
00:17:55.440
But, Rich, after the break, what I'd like to do is talk to you about something that we haven't talked about that is also coming up, as a matter of fact.
00:18:03.640
And that's called the general election of 2024, because all of the news that's going on right now.
00:18:11.820
It's affecting Joe Biden and the Hunter Biden stuff is going to come back.
00:18:16.800
Rich Bauer is going to break it down for us after the break.
00:18:18.420
I encourage people to, if you're interested in foreign policy, you've got to follow Jack Posobiec.
00:18:32.960
Jack Posobiec here, Washington, D.C., Human Events Live.
00:18:36.260
Folks, I've got to tell you that if Human Events sounds a little bit amped up today, that's because this show is powered by Blackout Coffee.
00:18:45.960
And today, I made myself a massive cup of Blackout Coffee, brutal awakening.
00:19:12.920
Folks, you can have the same level of energy as well.
00:19:21.200
You get three bags a month for your monthly subscription.
00:19:30.980
Now, Rich Barris, we've been talking about this, you know, in the first segment.
00:19:38.320
We're going to break through the legalities of this in a little bit.
00:19:43.460
The CCP and Ukrainian oligarchs are not going to be too happy with you, Hunter Biden.
00:19:52.900
So stay off paddle boards this summer, my friend.
00:20:00.100
But Rich, let's look in terms of the general election, because I have to imagine that the
00:20:08.940
fact that the Hunter News is now finally being covered in mainstream media, even nightly news
00:20:17.220
How will this or will this have an effect on the election?
00:20:20.480
And then what are you also seeing in the Trump-Biden numbers?
00:20:26.280
I said this to the president, I'll say this again to anyone who asks, unless something
00:20:30.980
physically happens to Joe Biden, he will be on the ballot.
00:20:34.360
They will prop him up with a stick if they have to weekend at Bernie style.
00:20:40.720
I don't think it's going to be Michelle or whatever of her names Bannon wants to call
00:20:50.920
This is what was always a weakness with the electability argument that Team DeSantis and
00:20:56.560
other never Trumpers were making, because this is an A-B test, Jack.
00:21:02.200
And you have these charges against Trump, but compared to what you're hearing from the
00:21:08.700
And it looks like a bunch of crooks trying to persecute their political opponent.
00:21:14.380
And honestly, it has attracted people to Donald Trump that you never would have thought were,
00:21:18.560
forget about a Republican, but even Donald Trump.
00:21:21.700
They're making him more relatable with people who look at society as trying to hammer them
00:21:30.300
These groups of people that are just really disjointed, feel disenfranchised, they're now
00:21:36.640
seeing Trump in a totally different light because he's the victim of what they have always
00:21:40.720
seen as an unfair system that props up the rich and powerful.
00:21:46.400
And this could be an entire hourly segment, but it is a scary time to live in America
00:21:51.260
because this is really an election about whether we can pick our own leaders or not.
00:21:56.980
But for somebody like me, a sophology, pollster, your election forecaster, whatever it may be,
00:22:02.260
it's an interesting time because this is not normal.
00:22:05.580
You don't see indictments come down on a leading presidential candidate and not hurt him.
00:22:10.760
And it must be very frustrating for Biden, for Democrats, for the Justice Department,
00:22:15.520
the administrative state, all of this cabal of anti-Trump forces.
00:22:22.100
One thing after the other, and they cannot deteriorate his support for the life of them.
00:22:28.120
Even in the Harris X poll, one of the few, like us, who did have the final popular vote
00:22:32.480
projection right in 24, he just took the lead in that poll.
00:22:36.280
And that was one where Biden still had a tiny little lead, and now Trump's up by four.
00:22:42.600
And it pokes a major hole in the argument that other non-Trump candidates were making
00:22:49.580
I've always found that ridiculous, but now it's starting to bear fruit.
00:22:53.620
And there's another element to this, and I don't know how deep you want to get into it,
00:22:57.180
but there is now this Trump or bust vote that we've always talked about.
00:23:02.980
They're getting so much more hardened in their views that when we're talking about the impact
00:23:07.880
this has on a general, you're looking at states like Iowa and Ohio.
00:23:12.120
Forget about Michigan, which is also true, but they're just not even that particularly
00:23:16.800
competitive without Donald Trump because these people are that mad.
00:23:21.620
And now let's talk about, so obviously you've been focused on the primary electorate, but
00:23:27.160
let's get into, because talk about the general.
00:23:31.240
And I think a lot of people understand that, that even when you look at all the ballot
00:23:35.040
shenanigans that we've been through a million times in 2020, that this election still only
00:23:40.720
came down to about 40,000 votes across three or four key swing states.
00:23:49.620
So the Hunter Biden news that we've seen today, the fact that the laptop is finally being investigated,
00:23:59.820
And is it having effect in addition to, by the way, I would argue the candidacy of RFK because
00:24:11.580
And this is another trap for Democrats because they're doing, and just working backwards,
00:24:16.040
they're doing everything they can to prevent RFK from being a real challenge to Biden to include
00:24:21.540
changing up the historical calendar of the nomination process.
00:24:24.760
They want to front load South Carolina and they want to put all of the smaller states
00:24:31.360
And that was always the point of having those smaller states front loaded because you want
00:24:36.340
other candidates who maybe aren't big donor candidates to be able to get their voices
00:24:41.320
They're going to, what they're doing is basically setting up a group of disgruntled voters that
00:24:46.640
will be RFK voters that could turn on them in a general.
00:24:49.600
And as far as whether or not, you know, Biden loses, you just said it, it really came down
00:24:54.340
to 40,000 votes for over a year now, about a year and a half, Jack, we're looking at about
00:24:59.440
eight to 12% of Biden's voters that routinely every month tell us I voted for Joe Biden,
00:25:08.000
Even if we just average that to 10%, we're talking about a net shift of 8 million, I mean,
00:25:14.140
well, a shift for Biden alone of 8 million votes.
00:25:17.420
If you look at the third party and Trump wouldn't vote for Trump, which is very small, less than
00:25:22.180
2%, you're looking at a net shift of over 6 million in an election that was only decided
00:25:32.480
And this really, again, hurts this electability argument that, you know, we've seen Fox News
00:25:41.840
He has won an election before, and this is an A-B test.
00:25:45.300
He won one where it was A-B, Hillary Clinton versus him.
00:25:53.800
And also, a large number of voters did not know about this stuff in 2020.
00:26:00.240
And among those who were aware, many of them told us they believed it was Russian disinformation.
00:26:12.780
So I think also that one of the big differences that even when I talk to independents, when
00:26:20.100
I talk to moderate types, and I'd love, I'd be interested to hear if you're getting any
00:26:24.160
of this in your work that, in the field, that Joe Biden has damaged goods now, right?
00:26:30.040
Before, he was one of these guys who was, you know, he's Obama's wingman.
00:26:35.340
He was sort of a known quantity, but not really known for anything.
00:26:38.200
It's just sort of one of the names that people knew, and he was a solid brand.
00:26:42.200
That's why I believe the Democrats will stick with him, because they understand that it's
00:26:51.820
You can't really brand him as a hardcore liberal, because try as conservatives might, they still
00:26:58.100
remember him as this, what they call the middle of the road guy.
00:27:04.000
So that's what you could do, by the way, with a Gavin Newsom, you could do with a Michelle
00:27:08.660
There's so many different things you could do there with a new brand.
00:27:11.980
But now Joe Biden is damaged goods, because we've had to live through, at this point, three
00:27:17.560
It'll have been four years of the failed Biden administration, these insane wars in Ukraine.
00:27:23.560
I mean, just think about the moment when Trump is up on that stage, and he points to him
00:27:28.060
and says, you rode 40 hours through a war zone into Kiev, and you spent $100 million, maybe
00:27:34.920
at that point it'll be $200 million US dollars doing so, sent overseas, and you did it for
00:27:46.400
The first point you made reminds me of, we brought this guy up when we first interviewed
00:27:52.420
It was months ago, not years, last year, but months ago.
00:28:00.980
You know, we knew him as a senator, as Obama's vice president.
00:28:07.980
And then, by the way, we also have to look and try to imagine the environment a year and
00:28:15.440
And what we do know is that the economy is likely to turn.
00:28:19.060
There are just so many I told you so's that Donald Trump can make.
00:28:23.800
He can go up on that campaign stage, or that debate stage, and he could just turn and look
00:28:29.260
at him and said, you know, I told you he would do this.
00:28:38.940
That's why I often equate this to, it could be, a Grover Cleveland-like situation where
00:28:47.820
But, you know, there was a lot of, he disrupted a lot of powerful people.
00:28:53.440
But by the time the next presidential election was up, Jack, you know, free silver, the economy
00:28:58.180
had tanked, and they were begging Grover Cleveland to come back.
00:29:01.360
And he was the one and only example for a president we have in our history like that.
00:29:05.880
And very much what I see with Donald Trump reminds me of Grover Cleveland.
00:29:11.740
Grover kind of rode in that first time on a drain-the-swamp mentality.
00:29:16.540
He was anti-public corruption and anti-status quo.
00:29:23.380
And it was very easy for him to just say, I told you so.
00:29:27.620
And that is what makes the difference between Trump and some of these other candidates.
00:29:35.400
And when he asked people, he asked voters to compare those records, he has something
00:29:39.940
he can say, I already did this, as opposed to what I told you Joe would do.
00:29:51.340
And where can people go to follow you and get involved in the people's pundit community?
00:29:55.120
We're coming up with a new national, at least that's the plan.
00:30:00.400
Our last Florida poll was basically mirrored by everybody else.
00:30:06.220
Cause for me, Jack, it's like make or break in Florida.
00:30:09.760
If you get killed in super Tuesday, Florida will be your last stand.
00:30:13.800
We are told that, uh, he's willing to make, DeSantis is willing to make that gamble.
00:30:18.100
So I think there's value still to poll Florida, but best place people can help us do that,
00:30:26.360
That's where to follow us with all things polling that we do and everything else.
00:30:31.840
The people's pundit, the people's pollster, Rich Barris, the man of the people.
00:30:40.580
If you didn't hear it first, you heard it from Rich Barris.
00:30:44.340
Mike Davis, White House, in absolute panic as the Hunter Biden plea deal falls apart.
00:30:49.520
I'm buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office.
00:30:52.820
I'm trying to listen to the new human events with Jack Posobiec.
00:30:59.440
Jack Posobiec, we're working on getting Mike Davis back on.
00:31:03.120
Folks, I got to say, all right, I'm just going to throw it out there.
00:31:05.880
On a day when there was so much news going on with Hunter Biden, when there's so much news
00:31:12.820
going on, the 2024 race, this polling collapse, infrastructure collapse for one of the major
00:31:24.740
And at the same time, keep in mind, Hunter Biden, he is the son, not only of the sitting
00:31:29.120
president, but also the person who is the front runner for the Democrats nomination in
00:31:34.520
2024, that you've got this huge hearing on UFOs that's taking up so much time, that's taking
00:31:45.020
up so much energy that people are being, I'm sorry, but I think there's good people that
00:31:50.560
mean well, that are going in on this, and I just don't buy it.
00:31:55.500
I'm not saying that there's impossible to be aliens out there.
00:32:00.780
By the way, my answer to the Fermi paradox is pretty simple.
00:32:04.240
The Fermi paradox is, if there are aliens, why haven't we seen any evidence of them out
00:32:12.300
And I could say, well, number one, we might just not be able to detect them because they
00:32:18.360
Number two could simply be that what if planet Earth is in some kind of interference field
00:32:25.460
that prevents us from being able to hear or see out of that field?
00:32:30.780
You know, I can think of a couple of simple answers to the Fermi paradox.
00:32:34.540
Also, just as a believer, as someone who has read their Bible, the Bible does tell us about
00:32:41.120
otherworldly beings, but those otherworldly beings, they're from other dimensions.
00:32:50.060
But the idea that the U.S. government has access to the ETs and is suddenly about to give
00:32:55.600
it, you know, bring it forward to us, Project Blue Beam and all this, I just, I'm sorry.
00:33:01.180
I'm going to focus on what's actually going on here in the United States and what happened
00:33:07.660
Mike Davis joins us now from the Article 3 project.
00:33:13.040
As far as I know, I think this is probably your initial interview after this just absolute
00:33:18.820
sparks flying courtroom appearance of Hunter Biden.
00:33:24.860
What do you make of what happened in that courtroom today, Mike?
00:33:29.600
It's unusual for a plea agreement between the federal government and a defendant to get
00:33:35.480
rejected by a federal judge, but this was an extraordinary plea agreement.
00:33:40.240
It was a sweetheart deal to protect President Biden and to bury evidence of many, many, many
00:33:48.780
And the government and Hunter Biden seem to have had a wink, wink, nod, nod agreement that
00:33:55.600
they weren't going to include a plea waiver in the plea agreement, but they were effectively
00:34:00.760
going to have a plea waiver where the Biden Justice Department wasn't going to pursue Hunter
00:34:07.340
And I think the judge saw this as what it was, which was a scam, and she told them to try
00:34:16.860
So basically what you're saying is that there were almost two layers to this deal.
00:34:21.660
One layer was the surface level saying, okay, we're, you know, you're going to plead guilty
00:34:26.620
some tax charges, but also there was a second layer, an unwritten deal, a handshake deal,
00:34:32.780
a, you know, behind closed doors kind of deal where it's, okay, we're also not going to prosecute
00:34:39.340
you for all these other crimes that we have very good evidence of.
00:34:42.820
And oh, by the way, IRS whistleblowers are coming out day after day after day, hammering it
00:34:48.960
out in public, which, you know, we, we pretend as if judges don't watch the news and they're
00:34:54.800
But of course, this judge has seen the IRS whistleblowers and I have to believe, and you
00:35:00.060
would know better than me, but I have to believe that that whistleblower testimony played a huge
00:35:05.300
role in this decision because that judge knows there's more to this than is actually in that
00:35:14.560
Yeah, she knows, this judge knows that this plea agreement is a scam.
00:35:19.840
Maybe what the Biden justice department and Hunter Biden are trying to do is, is they don't
00:35:24.140
want to include that there's a plea waiver for all crimes in this plea agreement because
00:35:29.780
it would a politically be so bad, but B it would allow the Biden justice department to keep
00:35:35.700
saying to Congress, we can't talk about this because there's an ongoing investigation.
00:35:40.400
So it would have the effect of giving a Hunter Biden blanket immunity without saying that
00:35:48.460
So the Biden justice department can keep covering up and protecting for him.
00:35:52.940
And more importantly, for his father, President Biden, for the rest of his term.
00:35:59.420
So at the same time, you've got essentially these IRS whistleblowers, they gave the public
00:36:06.400
And now we're seeing in the judicial side, because it's, it's different on the judicial
00:36:10.860
You don't have the same kind of leverage that a legislator or an executive would have a
00:36:15.300
president or a governor, but that doesn't mean that this stuff doesn't affect their decisions.
00:36:19.480
And so when people are talking about what's the importance of the IRS whistleblowers, we
00:36:24.980
So I have to say, I have to imagine that there are things going on behind the scenes.
00:36:29.780
There are phones being picked up the way they're probably being wrung off the hook right
00:36:35.020
now in the White House, in the Oval Office, because you've got Karine Jean-Pierre up there
00:36:40.820
She's losing it saying, look, look, Mike, let's walk through for us.
00:36:46.520
What did the White House want to happen today in this courthouse and compare that to what
00:36:51.380
What was supposed to happen is you had this David Weiss coming to this sweetheart deal.
00:37:00.460
He was actually handpicked by both Delaware home state senators.
00:37:05.560
I was the chief counsel for nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee when he was handpicked
00:37:14.300
And David Weiss came to this sweetheart deal with Hunter where he was going to plead guilty
00:37:22.440
And he was going to get a deferred sentence, a deferred judgment on a felony gun charge.
00:37:28.440
But it was all going to go away with no jail time.
00:37:30.860
And in effect, this was going to bury all of Hunter Biden's and all of Joe Biden's and
00:37:36.540
all of Jim Biden's crimes where the Biden Justice Department wasn't going to pursue them anymore.
00:37:42.300
They didn't want to put that there was a broad waiver, plea waiver in this plea agreement,
00:37:47.240
because as we discussed, it would be it wouldn't be sit politically well.
00:37:51.020
It also it doesn't give the not having it in there gives the Justice Department the cover
00:37:56.980
to say that there are ongoing investigations when everyone knows they're not investigating
00:38:02.200
And this this plea, this sweetheart plea deal just blew up today because the judge knows
00:38:09.680
Well, let me ask you about that as well, because I said in my assessment that I don't actually
00:38:14.920
buy that there's ongoing investigations, right?
00:38:17.900
There's investigation that's ongoing in the sense that, OK, there's something open and
00:38:22.300
But do you actually believe that there's a grand jury, that people are looking at evidence,
00:38:27.820
that there's a serious investigation into Hunter Biden and his business dealings with
00:38:35.660
I think there is an ongoing cover up by the Biden Justice Department to protect President
00:38:46.420
I couldn't agree with you more because, again, they know that they have to say that
00:38:50.840
because they're under oath and this puts them in the situation.
00:38:54.480
They weren't supposed to have to answer any questions about this today.
00:38:58.720
It was supposed to be pro forma when it comes down to some like and we've got a couple of
00:39:08.740
Do they have another bite at the apple or do you think this is done for good?
00:39:12.300
No, I think they're going to try to come up with another way, another reason to come
00:39:20.540
They may want to just keep this dead investigation open to make it look like they're investigating
00:39:25.680
so they can protect President Biden and his family.
00:39:29.180
But there's no chance that the Biden Justice Department is going to prosecute Hunter Biden
00:39:37.940
They're just going to drag this out as long as they can.
00:39:46.720
He's got the sources that we need within the Department of Justice, within the legal
00:39:51.020
community in Washington, D.C. and over in Delaware, elsewhere to understand what's actually
00:39:59.380
Look, everything I'm hearing right now that at the White House, they are absolutely losing
00:40:05.580
Also, we do have a little bit of breaking news.
00:40:09.860
Apparently, Mitch McConnell, Senator McConnell, has had a medical episode.
00:40:15.160
We know he was being treated for concussion recently, but he was escorted away from a podium.
00:40:22.920
And so we're going to keep an eye on that over the break.
00:40:26.600
Hopefully, everything is good for Senator McConnell.
00:40:33.600
But our thoughts and prayers are with Senator McConnell, because apparently he was escorted
00:40:37.420
away with a medical situation just moments ago.
00:40:52.600
Let's see if we can get that video clip up for the next segment for everybody, because
00:40:57.140
I want to be able to show what happened so that people have got suddenly my phone just
00:41:01.640
Everybody's sending me this thing about what happened there.
00:41:06.280
A lot of sparks flying over at the White House today, though.
00:41:13.040
People are freaking out because the Hunter Biden situation ain't going away.
00:41:18.860
When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods.
00:41:23.940
You can't be listening to all that slappy whack trim out his outlet.
00:41:41.760
So we've talked to you about these Georgia cases, the potential felony charges, Jan 6,
00:41:48.420
I think you were ahead of everybody talking about the 14th Amendment, the disqualification
00:41:54.640
I saw an interesting piece, though, in The Atlantic this morning, and this is by Paul Rosenzweig.
00:42:00.280
And he wrote, the 2024 election could be the end of the cases against Donald Trump.
00:42:08.420
The most powerful office in the nation presents his best chance to terminate the cases against
00:42:18.700
And from a legal perspective, what are they talking about, Mike?
00:42:21.240
Well, if President Trump wins back the White House, he can order his Justice Department
00:42:27.240
to dismiss his cases with prejudice, which he should do.
00:42:32.080
And if for some reason the Biden Justice Department manages to win a conviction before President
00:42:38.480
Trump wins back the White House, he should pardon himself.
00:42:40.720
This is clearly lawfare by Democrats on many different fronts, with Alvin Bragg with his
00:42:46.660
bogus charges against President Trump in New York for the non-crime of settling a nuisance
00:42:53.400
Jack Smith's bogus charges against Trump for the non-crime of a former president having
00:42:58.660
his presidential records, which is allowed under the Presidential Records Act.
00:43:01.860
And then Jack Smith and Fulton County Democrat DA Fannie Willis' bogus charges for the non-crime
00:43:09.200
of a president objecting to a presidential election, which is allowed by the Electoral
00:43:17.340
The Democrats know that these are bogus charges against Trump.
00:43:22.040
Jack Smith doesn't care that they're bogus charges.
00:43:24.540
He's the guy who brought bogus charges against Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell before the 2016
00:43:33.440
presidential election when Governor McDonnell was a likely Republican presidential candidate.
00:43:39.200
And Bob McDonnell ended up having Jack Smith's conviction overturned eight to nothing in the
00:43:47.040
But it was several years later after the damage was done, after Smith took out Bob McDonnell as
00:43:56.320
They don't care if Trump ultimately prevails on appeal in the Supreme Court, which he will.
00:44:01.000
They just care about trying to eliminate him as a presidential candidate in 2024.
00:44:05.460
And frankly, Jack, as we're seeing with the polls, this is backfiring on the Democrats.
00:44:10.960
This Alvin Bragg's indictment won President Trump the nomination.
00:44:15.600
And I think Jack Smith's indictments are going to win President Trump the White House.
00:44:23.120
And I asked Rich Barris this from a perspective of independence, because I think it really is
00:44:29.520
independence as well as MAGA turnout that is, if Trump, and it increasingly looks as though
00:44:35.820
he's going to be the nominee, it's really that question of independence.
00:44:40.960
Will he be able to pick up more of these voters?
00:44:43.720
How do you feel that independents or folks that you talk to that maybe aren't exactly
00:44:48.440
full-throated Trump supporters, that they look at this situation and then, of course,
00:44:53.180
juxtapose it with, you know, they're going after Trump on process crimes.
00:44:57.100
Then you've got Joe Biden's son at the same time, you know, is getting away with everything
00:45:04.960
We don't know that we don't know if murder is part of this yet, but let's say everything
00:45:09.720
Well, I mean, it's not just President Biden's son, it's President Biden himself who's getting
00:45:18.400
I mean, and it's, I mean, I think the American people are starting to see very clearly that
00:45:23.240
our justice system at every level, the federal government, state government, local governments
00:45:27.800
have been politicized and weaponized by Democrats against Trump, Trump's top aides, Trump supporters,
00:45:34.900
even, you know, they're going after people who aren't exactly Trumpy.
00:45:38.860
I mean, we have people threatening to kill Supreme Court justices, and they're not just
00:45:43.120
going after the conservative Supreme Court justices, they're going after Chief Justice
00:45:49.540
So I think people are waking up pretty quickly to the fact that this is a deranged Democrat
00:45:56.040
party, not our parents' or grandparents' Democrat party anymore, not liberals who love
00:46:00.500
America, leftists who hate America and are trying to destroy America.
00:46:05.800
We can't have two systems of justice in America.
00:46:09.120
And you take that, and you also take the fact that Biden is running our country into the
00:46:16.880
We have interest rates now at the highest level in 20 years because of Biden's out-of-control
00:46:28.980
This is having an effect, and I think a lot of these independents are going to say, you
00:46:33.100
know what, maybe Trump is a jerk, but, you know, he actually was a good president who
00:46:39.540
delivered peace and prosperity in this country instead of war and chaos that Biden has delivered.
00:46:48.700
We weren't in war with, you know, this proxy war with Russia.
00:46:55.260
I do think that when you look at a lot of these things that just on the basis, and it's
00:47:01.860
also one of those deals where when you take time away from the media telling you every
00:47:07.080
day that Trump is bad, Trump is bad, Trump is bad, when that SETI drumbeat goes away
00:47:12.500
for a while and you just look at this country as it is and as it's been, it starts to kind
00:47:17.660
of peel off those, what's the opposite of rose-colored glasses, right?
00:47:23.860
You know, those toxin-colored glasses and put it on.
