Summary
Biden is nowhere to be seen, nowhere near the White House, not visible wherever he is, but he still has a message for his own son: "Lying Joe." Ed Rollins and Michael Goodwin join host Lou Dobbs on the Great America Show to discuss the latest developments in the Biden scandal.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
Hello everybody, I'm Lou Dobbs and welcome to the Great America Show.
00:00:05.760
We began with what looks to be the most important event
00:00:09.420
to this point in the House investigations of President Biden.
00:00:17.100
saying his committee now has specific Biden family bank records,
00:00:25.940
bribed the Biden family members in return for foreign policy decisions.
00:00:34.560
the documents given to the committee by a legally protected whistleblower
00:00:38.900
implicate President Biden in a pay-for-play scheme.
00:00:44.060
This development comes as the Department of Justice is expected to announce
00:00:51.060
And as Comer last week subpoenaed the FBI for a file that details
00:00:56.080
an exchange of money for policy decisions plan while Biden was vice president.
00:01:02.440
The committee demanding the FBI turn over that file by this Wednesday.
00:01:07.260
And in an interview on Fox with Maria Bartiromo,
00:01:11.000
Comer said he and Senator Chuck Grassley will hold a press conference Wednesday.
00:01:16.120
And he has a warning for Attorney General Merrick Garland.
00:01:19.540
My message to the Department of Justice is very loud and clear.
00:01:24.240
Do not indict Hunter Biden before Wednesday when you have the opportunity to see the evidence
00:01:32.700
that the House Oversight Committee will produce with respect to the web of LLCs,
00:01:39.020
with respect to the number of adversarial countries that this family influence peddled in.
00:01:46.700
This is about the entire Biden family, including the president of the United States.
00:01:52.580
That Comer and Grassley press conference scheduled for this Wednesday,
00:02:02.720
Biden, as usual, is nowhere to be seen, nowhere near the White House,
00:02:08.400
But he also had a message and telling one of the most obvious lies of the many that he's ever told
00:02:25.520
Anyone who's seen pictures from the Hunter Biden laptop knows better than that.
00:02:30.280
There's a reason President Trump labeled it the laptop from hell.
00:02:34.060
And anyone who's listened to the man President Trump and the 2020 campaign called Lying Joe knows better as well.
00:02:42.560
Biden is a puppet, he is impaired mentally, and he is an inveterate liar,
00:02:47.760
much like the corporatist media that covers him.
00:02:58.640
But these latest numbers are shocking even for his own party and the Marxist Dems who lead it.
00:03:08.900
63% of those polls say Biden is not mentally fit to hold the office of president.
00:03:17.100
And in the same poll, 62% say Biden isn't physically fit either for the presidency.
00:03:26.720
Trump and DeSantis both now beating him in the latest polls.
00:03:32.060
When we need answers, we turn to two of my favorite political thinkers,
00:03:35.560
the dean of Republican strategist, Ronald Reagan's political director, Ed Rollins,
00:03:40.640
and the New York Post distinguished columnist, Michael Goodwin.
00:03:44.420
It's absolutely a pleasure to have you both back with us.
00:03:53.420
Well, let's sort of compare what's going on now to, you know, a quarter century ago.
00:04:00.020
I keep saying to this audience, I have never, ever not only seen anything like this,
00:04:13.940
And I am fairly skeptical how corrupt our federal government is.
00:04:18.400
Ed, let's begin with you, your reaction to what we're living in.
00:04:24.380
Well, no part of the government seems to be working.
00:04:27.820
And the Supreme Court, which obviously does still work, is certainly under a different
00:04:34.420
And my sense is the Congress will try and screw it up by ethics challenges and all the
00:04:40.720
But at the end of the day here, the Congress is not working and can't work.
00:04:45.200
You have a president who is clearly out of it most of the time.
00:04:50.540
And the country is not happy with either choice they're going to have in the foreseeable future.
00:04:56.000
They weren't happy necessarily the last time, but they're really unhappy now.
00:04:59.340
So, and the president, the former president, President Trump, which we all supported, I think
00:05:05.000
has so much chaos ahead of him that I don't see how you can possibly run a campaign.
00:05:10.640
He will certainly be, if the election were held in the next month or the next week or
00:05:15.260
tomorrow, he would be the nominee of the party.
00:05:17.760
But after all the charges that are thrown at him, how do you basically get your campaign
00:05:24.640
When there's 20 lawyers sitting down all trying to argue what you should do and you've got
00:05:28.540
campaign staff sitting down there, you know, at the end of the day, my sense is just going
00:05:32.880
to be very hard for him to launch a real campaign, an effective campaign, so.
00:05:37.820
Well, Michael, your thoughts about what Ed said?
00:05:40.560
Well, before I get to the politics of it, what I'm struck by mostly, Lou and Ed, is the
00:05:48.400
lack of trust now in anything coming from Washington.
00:05:54.640
And, I mean, with the FBI in particular, the CIA, I mean, I think one of the consent of
00:06:04.480
the governed, which is what holds a democracy together, is really badly frayed.
00:06:10.420
The other point I would make is that this cultural revolution that we're going through,
00:06:15.820
where everything is under assault from the left, all of the institutions, the memory,
00:06:24.460
the nation's memory, the nation's history, its heroes.
00:06:28.500
You know, I wonder about young people in school today, who are they taught are America's heroes?
00:06:38.380
He was slow with the Emancipation Proclamation, we're told.
00:06:41.980
It can't be Washington or Jefferson or anybody else.
00:06:46.140
So it just feels to me that the country is sort of fundamentally unraveling.
00:06:53.100
And I don't see how anyone or I don't see anyone on the scene who's capable of the kind
00:07:01.080
of broad trust that could put it back together or at least slam on the brakes of where we're
00:07:07.000
going, because it just it does feel increasingly like we're headed for some kind of a crack
00:07:12.980
And and I think people could be forgiven as well, Michael, for thinking we're in the
00:07:18.680
midst of a crack up right now that may be irretrievable.
00:07:23.520
This this damage that we've seen done to our culture, to our society, to our economy,
00:07:28.900
to our political system, our governance, it may well be irreparable.
00:07:40.400
I think at the end of the day here, the young people and certainly the covid took them out
00:07:47.140
Both kids who needed more education or any education and the work, the work subject.
00:07:52.380
I had a physical yesterday with my doctor and she said to me that young people who come
00:07:57.240
to her who used to go to work for Goldman Sachs or what have you don't want to be there
0.96
00:08:01.980
Don't don't believe that hard work matters anymore and they want time off and they want
00:08:08.180
And they're very, very unhappy and they all want medication that makes them happy.
00:08:13.100
And I've never had a doctor tell me that before, but it certainly makes great sense.
00:08:17.280
And the social media that if you think you're living a good life, all you have to do is
00:08:20.940
get on social media, some of your friends and read their lives where they're going someplace
00:08:24.680
every weekend on a yacht or to a gala ball or what have you.
00:08:29.480
You know, and to a certain extent, the political system is not something that I spent 50 years
00:08:37.340
And, you know, the New York Times is a series of how you can expand the Congress to seven or
00:08:45.360
I thought, my God, we had to cut it down to 50.
00:08:54.700
And so you go have spent nine billion dollars, as we did in the presidential campaign, to
00:09:00.240
come out even in the Senate and have a two two seat margin in the in the House.
00:09:11.160
It's not going to work for the foreseeable future.
00:09:12.740
So, you know, to that point, I was talking with a with a congressman who will be obviously
00:09:19.500
unidentified here talking about how disappointed they were in what is happening in Congress.
00:09:31.140
And I'm watching the Republican conference and I'm thinking this is the best I've ever
00:09:35.900
seen Republicans operate in the at the onset of a of a Congress.
00:09:40.400
I mean, the 118th Congress is now a little over just about four months old.
00:09:47.060
And and I think they're doing amazing things with their investigative committees.
00:09:52.000
They're I actually suggested on the air that they not proceed with the debt ceiling fight because
00:09:58.580
I've never seen the Republicans win that fight, but they're even making it seems at least some
00:10:11.480
I mean, we're looking at a group of people who are tough.
00:10:15.480
They're fighters, but they're really disappointed in and how little Congress can get done.
00:10:20.920
And this handful that I've talked to your thoughts, Michael.
00:10:25.780
Well, I I'm also impressed by the the investigative committees, Comer, Jim Jordan, Turner.
00:10:34.080
I think they've they've really come out of the gate.
00:10:36.600
I was a little concerned in the beginning that they seem to be slow walking and sort of talking
00:10:41.880
ahead of the evidence before they put the evidence out.
00:10:46.060
But I think that's been corrected, you know, the they're now sharing more of the evidence
00:10:52.820
as they as they go public and, you know, putting up the results, I think, is going to be important
00:11:00.720
because they have a very big job of convincing the American people what they're doing.
00:11:06.100
You know, my my wife said to me recently, I was talking about Hunter Biden, giving her one
00:11:11.320
of my Hunter Biden speeches, and she said, you know, honey, nobody else talks that way.
00:11:20.040
And it occurred to me that there is still a large segment of the country that doesn't know
00:11:26.600
what we know about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and the big guy and Tony Bobulinski.
00:11:34.180
Tony Bobulinski, for example, is not a household name.
00:11:38.880
He publicly identified Joe Biden as the big guy.
00:11:42.840
He met with Joe Biden and and said Joe Biden knew all about the deal with the Chinese conglomerates.
00:11:55.120
And obviously, it would quickly get you back to The New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, who have shut all of this down.
00:12:02.740
But I think the Republicans in Congress are making real headway against that.
00:12:07.560
And if they continue to produce these whistleblowers and these findings and open up the Justice
00:12:14.900
Department and the FBI and get the documents that are in there, I think you will see a public
00:12:21.640
that becomes knowledgeable about the Biden family scandals and will then react in a political
00:12:32.340
I think the biggest failing that I don't disagree with any of what I just said, it just is no
00:12:41.820
You can't just have the chairman carried along.
00:12:45.740
Every member ought to be out there every weekend, going back to their community and saying, here
00:12:51.680
Here are the four or five things we want to talk about this week.
00:12:58.140
I mean, we three pay attention to everything that goes on.
00:13:02.760
And but the vast majority in the country don't care.
00:13:05.260
And they may care if they know what's really going on.
00:13:09.040
But the mere fact that the whole Biden letter, you are very familiar with, Michael, or the
00:13:18.320
Secretary of State, who is not the Secretary of State, gathered this information, which
00:13:23.160
was all false, got all these big names to sign a letter that basically said that everything
00:13:30.420
that was in the letter, everything that had been charged was false.
00:13:35.460
That should be an indictable charge in which the Secretary of State I'd be thrown out
00:13:47.160
The only things that aren't one-day stories are what's happening to Donald Trump.
00:13:52.860
And the conservative networks are all getting knocked out of the box.
00:13:58.200
And the mainstream media is getting more and more attention paid to it because that's
00:14:03.800
And the young people aren't paying attention to any of it.
00:14:10.740
So what's turning out is I talk to my daughter and my daughter's friends who are 28 years
00:14:21.140
Whether Democrats or Republicans, they don't care.
00:14:26.440
Well, I'd say that they've got good evidence to support their view on the system right
00:14:32.360
And the drumbeat, I think, also, Ed, you're exactly right.
00:14:37.680
We're going to take that up as we continue with Ed Rollins and Michael Goodwin.
00:14:47.320
We're talking with the savant himself, Ed Rollins, and the New York Post brilliant
00:14:56.340
And Ed, we're talking about your daughter not necessarily thinking this is a system that's
00:15:03.180
To that point, the New York Post with a story saying that the FBI has a file linking the
00:15:10.120
president of the United States, a scheme that is directly related to a criminal scheme.
00:15:18.600
And that coming from James Comer's subpoenas, your thoughts on that, Michael, that's an
00:15:27.420
And that's going to be tested, I would guess, rather quickly.
00:15:31.760
Look, I have no doubts myself that Joe Biden is up to his eyeballs in this influence peddling
00:15:40.260
I mean, the more you look at the people that Hunter Biden and Jim Biden met with around the
00:15:46.820
world, the more you have to say, well, how did they know to go to those people?
00:15:51.240
And there's only one way they would know, and that would be Joe Biden pointed them in
00:15:56.780
He may have even arranged the interviews in some cases.
00:16:00.740
So while I'm reluctant to call Joe Biden a mastermind about anything, I think he was the
00:16:07.280
mastermind of this scam and this influence peddling that the whole Biden family profited from.
00:16:15.320
So I think that getting that out there, and as Bob Alinsky says recently now, that he has
00:16:28.280
He said initially that he just sort of saw this wave of different Chinese companies coming at
00:16:35.920
Hunter Biden with opportunities and Hunter Biden soliciting them.
00:16:40.120
He now believes that it was a Chinese intelligence operation from the beginning that targeted Joe
00:16:47.020
Biden and was just simply using Hunter to get to Joe.
00:16:52.260
And so that there was an overall plan from the get go by the Chinese government and the
00:16:59.920
That speaks volumes to, I believe, Joe Biden's behavior toward China.
00:17:07.400
The balloon, for example, the spy balloon was no big deal, he said.
00:17:12.480
The other day, he said he's not worried about China.
00:17:18.480
He's never gone after them on the virus, the origin of the virus.
00:17:22.820
The Uyghurs, have you heard a mention of the Uyghurs since Joe Biden became president?
00:17:28.860
I mean, there are all of these indications that he is compromised.
00:17:33.360
And while it pains me to say it, I think if we're going to have a government that goes after
00:17:39.340
a president as this government went after Donald Trump, the least we can expect is that the same
00:17:46.760
institutions and agencies go after any hint that the current president is corrupt and with the same
00:17:54.540
vigor and maybe some of the same techniques that they used against the former president.
00:18:02.060
But I think the Republican Congress is is starting to push in that direction.
00:18:06.980
Your your thoughts on that, Ed, is it likely that we'll see any kind of energy from the permanent
00:18:14.640
bureaucracy, the Department of Justice, the FBI, even remotely interested in investigating Joe Biden and
00:18:30.660
I think Joe Biden was a very experienced guy getting getting every kind of contribution there was when
00:18:37.540
I don't think he ever anticipated being president.
00:18:39.960
But I think the problem we face now is that the Washington bureaucracy does not see Biden as a
00:18:49.500
And the players around him, which have been the same players for a long period of time, are going to be the
00:18:55.440
And I think to a certain extent, they assume that the Congress that has a two-seat margin
00:19:00.600
in the House is probably going to lose that seat, those seats in the next election and possibly the
00:19:06.320
And they're going to play, they're going to basically play the game that you're going to
00:19:11.660
And unless, again, unless the Congress, the House members unite and say, communicating my
00:19:17.320
message and our things here are most serious and making sure that every charge you make is a
00:19:22.580
legitimate charge and one that you can prove, it's just going to go by the wayside.
00:19:29.220
With that, obviously, we're talking about leadership.
00:19:33.980
Jim Jordan, James Comer, impressing me mightily as they lead their committees, their respective
00:19:40.340
committees, Jordan Judiciary and the Weaponization Subcommittee and Comer House Oversight.
00:19:46.420
I have a feeling that we're going to see, I truly believe this, I have a feeling we're
00:20:00.420
Well, look, I agree with Ed in the sense that there needs to be a strategy, a focused strategy
00:20:09.940
It can't be these individual committees out there on their own.
00:20:13.760
In the same way that Nancy Pelosi created the January 6th Committee and stayed on top
0.98
00:20:26.320
I think that's what Kevin McCarthy needs to do.
00:20:29.360
I don't know if he has somebody on his leadership team, Ed would know best, who's capable of exercising
00:20:35.440
that kind of discipline, if it's not McCarthy himself.
00:20:40.100
But I agree with you, Lou, too, that I am optimistic about this.
00:20:48.440
And I do believe that there will come a tipping point.
00:20:53.360
In the same way that you say Richard Nixon, for example, at some level, you have to persuade
00:21:03.840
the media, the media has to be persuaded, let's put it that way, that this is legitimate, that
00:21:09.220
it matters, and that they are not going to protect the president in this era when he seems
00:21:16.280
to be corrupt, when there's evidence of his personal corruption.
00:21:19.100
I think that's the tipping point that has to happen so that the wider public is all confronted
00:21:26.760
with this information instead of it just coming out of a couple of pockets of the media.
00:21:32.220
And to that point, I think we also have to give considerable weight to the fact that most
00:21:38.880
of media is controlled by the corporatist ownership that spans, what, 90 percent of all media in
00:21:51.720
The New York Times, the Washington Post have acknowledged reality.
00:21:56.280
They finally admitted two years later that they were wrong, that the Hunter Biden laptop was
00:22:03.300
not Russian disinformation, but rather the disinformation came from the intelligence agencies
00:22:09.720
and those veterans who signed, those 51 veterans, including five CIA directors who signed that letter.
00:22:19.760
Acknowledging the reality of that and all of the evidence within that laptop,
00:22:28.340
we haven't seen a prosecution of any kind, save one, which is a now six-year-old tax evasion
00:22:35.720
grand jury in Delaware under the auspices of the U.S. attorney that still has not brought
00:22:51.380
I mean, there should have been, people should have been up in arms in the media about Hunter
00:22:57.100
Biden going to the Korean presidential dinner with all the background and China and what
00:23:02.400
have you and all this question about his tactics.
00:23:06.060
Why is he there making, I mean, he was brought to that dinner to basically show that he's still
00:23:11.720
And the reality here is, this is a guy, if this was my son, he'd be in the closet and
00:23:21.060
for bad behavior, he should be in jail or at least be in charge.
00:23:26.340
My concern, again, and I don't mean to be negative on all this, I think the Trump story
00:23:31.120
is going to be so overwhelming that people are going to argue that, well, Republicans
00:23:35.800
are just going after Biden because they're going after Biden because we're going after Trump.
00:23:39.240
And that Biden's an old man and he doesn't know what's going on.
00:23:43.440
And, you know, he's not a bad guy and he's not a bad president.
00:23:53.280
I think it's going to be hard to get these networks, times, all the rest of them to
00:23:57.440
basically cover the stuff accurately and adequately.
00:24:01.360
Well, that, if I could just say quickly, I think that's where time is of the essence.
00:24:11.420
I mean, once you start having Republican debates, I think that's going to happen late in the
00:24:17.540
So there's an urgency for getting this information out there.
00:24:23.180
And we'll be talking about that urgency as we continue with Ed Rollins and Michael Goodwin
00:24:33.240
You're with the A-Team, the savant, Ed Rollins, and the New York Post, Michael Goodwin.
00:24:39.480
Gentlemen, let's talk about the urgency of the thing.
00:24:43.140
We have very little, I think, reason for optimism that the national media is going to pick up
00:24:50.820
I think your point about there has to be leadership.
00:24:53.480
And so the question becomes, Michael, is McCarthy that leader?
00:25:03.240
Well, you know, instinctively, Lou, I would say no, because he never has been.
00:25:10.100
But as you pointed out earlier, he's been more impressive than I imagined.
00:25:16.620
I mean, the way he prevailed going back to the speaker vote, the way he hung in there,
00:25:22.940
I think everyone thought he would at some point bow out to the reality.
00:25:29.240
Whatever deals he made do not seem to have hampered him in any way so far that I can see.
00:25:34.840
But I think ultimately, and I agree with you on the debt ceiling, I think it was a real
00:25:42.720
win for him the way he got to raise the debt limit while cutting the budget.
00:25:50.580
And as the Wall Street Journal editorial page said today, you know, Schumer and Biden are
00:25:59.840
So, so far, I'm impressed with McCarthy, but I still think, for my opinion, he's still
00:26:08.880
got a lot to prove that he can be as fierce a leader as, say, Nancy Pelosi was or Newt
00:26:16.540
Gingrich was, others who have sort of taken a small majority and turned it into a powerful
00:26:22.760
Well, and we've got to acknowledge all of the subpoenas that have been issued by the
00:26:29.200
Judiciary Committee in particular, but also oversight, bringing in the suspicious activity
00:26:34.760
reports on Hunter Biden and others in the Biden family.
00:26:40.940
The Judiciary Committee is not, Jim Jordan is not mincing words.
00:26:45.780
He is moving ahead and really holding people to account.
00:26:49.860
He's not going to tolerate any more, it appears, of the stonewalling.
1.00
00:26:58.700
And on these investigative teams, I'm going to say something about leadership here, Ed.
00:27:03.260
I think that I think McCarthy has been very wise not to interfere with the leadership of
00:27:16.140
And obviously, at the end of the day, I think they have done a good job.
00:27:19.200
But it comes down to, we have seen how slow the justice system is, and I think to a certain
00:27:24.600
So the committees come up, and again, the committees are close, the vote, the whole
00:27:32.260
They find the information, they put it out, who picks it up, who runs with it?
00:27:41.700
The country basically starts saying, wait a minute, we need to get, we need to look hard
00:27:45.560
at this thing, it's going to have an impact on the presidential race with Biden, who most
00:27:49.580
people in the Democratic Party don't want, the kid ought to be put in jail.
00:27:56.000
And I just think you've got so much out there in the clutter.
00:27:58.820
And the problem with Americans today is that there's so much clutter everywhere, whether
00:28:04.440
it's on your television set, or whether it's in your newspapers, or whether it's on your
00:28:09.620
And that's going to be the strategy here, is how do you break through?
00:28:12.380
And the best way to break through is to get two or three of these things that will outrage
00:28:16.420
people, and make those the arguments that you make over and over and over again, and
00:28:22.320
Don't have five different, six different people out there saying different things on different
00:28:31.040
We're watching the track on the investigations committees, and we're watching what is happening
00:28:40.500
One is the political persecution of Donald Trump that's now in its eighth year, that has
00:28:46.640
entered its eighth year, as well as the primary process.
00:28:49.900
As far as the primary process goes, he is in amazing shape, leading DeSantis by, what, 30,
00:28:59.920
This is over before it begins, unless there's some...
00:29:03.100
Well, as I said at the beginning of the show, there's no Republican going to beat Trump in
00:29:11.580
the primaries today, next month, two months from now.
00:29:15.020
I just worry about the legal stuff bogging him down, or he gets the nomination, and it's
00:29:19.520
worthless, because you can't get an independent vote to go for you.
00:29:21.860
You know, when you say the legal troubles, and I agree with you 100%, he's got, by my count,
00:29:28.040
five legal actions against him right now, federal, local, and state-led, three of those
00:29:35.980
But think back to what we've witnessed over the court since 2016.
00:29:41.740
He's had the federal government try to frame him, the entire intelligence apparatus arrayed
00:29:54.800
And the man was under investigation, FBI investigation, for four years, his full term in office.
00:30:04.120
So I think, Mike, there's a suggestion here that he can handle legal problems pretty well.
00:30:12.420
I was talking to some people last night about this and the Georgia case.
00:30:16.880
So if you look at each one of these pending cases, you have the Georgia case, you have the
00:30:24.400
You have the Alvin Bragg indictment already in Manhattan.
00:30:28.220
You have this civil rape case going on, the trial now.
00:30:33.120
And then there's, I think, another, there's the business case.
00:30:40.760
So, you know, talking to these people last night who are all well-versed in both the politics
00:30:46.380
and the business aspects and not necessarily Trump supporters, but they agreed that all of
00:30:54.260
In other words, there's something about them that's not quite right.
00:30:58.620
There's something about them that feels peculiarly aimed at Donald Trump.
00:31:12.460
The chair of the grand jury was a cuckoo bird when she came out on those.
1.00
00:31:18.940
I mean, so, and the two, and the special counsel with the January 6th and the documents, does
00:31:25.560
any, I said, does anyone remember that there's also a special counsel for investigating Joe
00:31:34.380
So this sense of selective prosecution, I think, already clouds those two cases.
00:31:40.180
I don't know how it all ends up, but I think within those who are inclined to support Trump
00:31:46.120
or who think that all of these federal, all these cases are somehow just prejudicial and
00:31:52.420
basic level, I don't know how much it's going to hurt him, no matter the outcome.
00:31:58.100
It'll hurt him some, but I think it may be marginal.
00:32:01.380
Well, all it has to be, all it has to be is marginal.
00:32:05.020
If you take this rape case, which, you know, to me, it's an old situation, and I think to
00:32:12.460
a certain extent, you know, I was thinking the other day, if Donald Trump had walked away
00:32:16.620
the day after the election or pursued his legal challenges and went to the inauguration and
00:32:23.520
said, you know, I wish you well, I'm going to give you 30 days, and then I'm going to be
00:32:26.800
the opposition, he would be on his way to the greatest reelection effort ever.
00:32:31.380
I think today, all of this stuff has come about because the activities after that, you've
00:32:37.740
had the old network we all dealt with, Fox, it's somewhat crippled, maybe even more crippled.
00:32:42.980
All the tools that Trump has had historically are going to be challenged, including his people.
00:32:48.520
There's still a bunch, you know, these aren't just him alone, they're going to be some of
00:32:52.820
And I just think that, you know, I wish him well, I certainly believe that he has the right
00:32:57.480
to prove his innocence, and all it takes is one juror.
00:33:00.320
But even getting the one juror, trying to get a juror in New York, and a place in which
00:33:05.620
Trump got 23% of the vote, trying to get a District of Columbia, which he got 5% of the
00:33:10.540
vote, trying to get it in Georgia, where 70% of the voters, the largest vote ever for Democrats
00:33:17.120
since Kennedy, for Biden, it's hard to get a jury pool that's going to give you that
00:33:23.680
All he has to do is beat a couple of these cases, and he's on his way, but those are going
00:33:32.000
I've been involved helping, I'm not a lawyer, but I've been involved in a lot of cases as
00:33:36.940
Once you get dragged into these courthole situations, it's awful, awful hard to basically
00:33:45.200
And a campaign, and especially a campaign that's going to be close, as it's been the last two,
00:33:51.740
I submit to you that those intelligence officials, the Biden campaign, perhaps at the behest of
00:33:59.580
even President Obama, who was president during that point, with all of those intelligence
00:34:04.660
officials with a deputy secretary of state by the name of Tony Anthony Blinken leading
00:34:19.240
That was the greatest disinformation spectacle that we've seen in a long time.
00:34:25.320
You know, I would add another dimension, too, which is in 2016, Jake Sullivan, now the
00:34:31.920
National Security Advisor worked with Hillary Clinton's campaign, spreading the Steele dossier.
00:34:38.520
So you have our National Security Advisor and our Secretary of State, both involved up to
00:34:48.420
I mean, if that is not evidence of a deep state, and along with the signers of that letter,
00:34:54.720
I mean, it is a deep state that is corrupt and that turned a presidential election.
00:35:00.420
They meddled in a presidential election and probably turned it.
0.98
00:35:11.760
My sense, if Biden gets in trouble, his kid gets in more trouble, they'll go plead guilty
00:35:17.720
to, they'll take a plea, a tax evasion or some minor thing, and he'll get six months suspended
00:35:33.640
Let's just say quickly, you know, on the case, I agree with you, Ed, because there's
00:35:37.420
no, if the Justice Department closes that case with a plea deal or whatever, it's sort of
00:35:45.760
And of course, they have to do that at some level, because any serious investigation takes
00:35:51.180
you to the president, and that's not something Merrick Garland is ever going to do.
00:35:57.800
Well, we have something that does take us to the president, though, if this New York Post
00:36:03.440
story holds up, and that is that Comer's committee is subpoenaing an FBI file, specifically on
00:36:12.940
the basis of the whistleblower, that they say links Joe Biden to a criminal scheme.
00:36:20.280
If so, this will be the closest, the closest we have ever been to a serious, serious injury
00:36:29.520
to the Biden presidency and its claim to legitimacy.
00:36:33.620
And I'd like to close with your thoughts on that possibility.
00:36:39.020
I think with the lack of support that Biden has among Democrats, if you could have a story
00:36:44.140
like that that has legs and credibility, he will be the nominee for president.
00:36:49.120
He'll step aside, they'll get rid of Harris, and he'll find a whole new ticket.
00:36:53.660
I don't know who that ticket will be, but my sense, if that occurs, he can't win.
00:37:00.120
Look, this has the potential to be a spectacular story in the sense that this thing has been
00:37:06.220
bubbling around out there, you know, since 2020, and the media has tried to ignore it,
00:37:14.900
And if it comes back and bites the Democrats in the stretch run of a campaign, it would
00:37:21.800
be justice because they could have resolved this earlier had the media not sat on, not
00:37:30.800
And with that, we always give our guests, gentlemen, the last word.
00:37:35.880
Ed, if we may begin with you, your concluding thoughts here, and then you, Michael, if you
00:37:40.800
My concluding thoughts is this is my 50th year in American politics when I first came
00:37:50.920
I think there's so many turns and tosses that are going to occur.
00:37:54.960
Anyone that tries to make a prediction this far out is crazy.
00:38:00.500
We're going to see lots and lots of activity and lots and lots of things happen.
00:38:05.560
Yeah, look, it is funny when you look at the sort of the public doesn't really want a
00:38:19.520
And, you know, it's going to be fascinating to see if there's anything that takes out one
00:38:25.060
of them and rejiggers the political map, because right now we are headed for a Trump-Biden rematch.
00:38:32.360
And with that, I'm going to say thank you very much to the A-team, Ed Rollins, Michael Goodwin.
00:38:39.580
