Like that woman over there with the designer jeans.
00:00:32.540
live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.
00:00:45.760
It's Friday, and we have a massive show for you today.
00:00:48.680
Ahead, I'll be speaking with Jeffrey Epstein's brother,
00:00:51.460
Mark Epstein, who is here to release a never-before-seen,
00:00:55.420
rather gruesome, but important photo of Jeffrey Epstein.
00:01:00.300
Taken right after his death that he believes proves his brother did not commit suicide.
00:01:06.300
I've got to tell you, looking at the photo, I've got my own doubts as well.
00:01:11.000
I had him even before I saw the photo, but we'll go through it.
00:01:13.920
But first, Ben Shapiro is here to discuss the absolutely extraordinary event that we saw last night
00:01:20.900
and a potential breaking point for the Democratic Party with their nominee.
00:01:25.180
We on this show yesterday were talking about President Joe Biden's mental acuity
00:01:30.500
and the multiple instances over the years and lately of him seeming to falter.
00:01:36.000
Well, let's just say it happened again, and it's been happening a lot behind the scenes
00:01:44.260
The president holding a primetime news address last night to the nation, very rare for him,
00:01:48.620
to respond directly to Special Counsel Robert Herr's report on Mr. Biden's mishandling of classified documents.
00:01:56.340
The report hit late Thursday and recommended no criminal charges,
00:02:00.440
but Mr. Biden, who responded to the report with that live primetime address,
00:02:04.640
also widely misled the country about what was actually in that report,
00:02:11.780
In addition, and perhaps most notably, the report gave a damning account,
00:02:17.680
to put it gently, of the president's mental acuity in dealing with the special counsel.
00:02:24.640
It said Mr. Biden could not remember the year his son Bo died of cancer.
00:02:30.660
Quote, within several years, he could not state when Bo died.
00:02:35.000
And once asked during an interview with prosecutors, he asked them,
00:02:44.560
A couple questions, at least in this report, according to the special counsel,
00:02:48.760
that Joe Biden asked about when he was vice president.
00:02:54.360
Mr. Biden last night taking issue, at least with that allegation about Bo.
00:02:58.960
I know there's some attention paid to some language in the report about my recollection of events.
00:03:05.660
There's even reference that I don't remember when my son died.
00:03:15.060
Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, it wasn't any other damn business.
00:03:19.600
After he made that remark, Mr. Biden went on to talk about the rosary beads that he wears on his wrist to honor Bo.
00:03:32.880
It seemed clear, at least to me, that the president forgot where those beads were from when he was talking.
00:03:39.980
Some of you have commented, I wear, since the day he died, every single day, the rosary he got from Our Lady of...
00:03:48.980
I remembered this from my own personal experience.
00:03:56.940
The beads he was referencing are from Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico.
00:04:02.120
A fact I know because he shared it with me five years ago.
00:04:08.920
Well, um, I, uh, uh, Bo wore these, Hunt got these for Bo and me and, uh, at, uh, Our Lady of Guadalupe down in Mexico.
00:04:22.520
And I had visited there and, um, and we, and we all wore them.
00:04:32.240
The reason it's relevant, of course, is because he was trying to rebut, while standing out there, accusations that he has forgotten major details around major events of his life, including the death of his son.
00:04:46.400
That one, not a major detail, but it speaks to his problem.
00:04:50.140
As so many of his statements last night did, speaking of Mexico.
00:04:56.740
After taking questions from the press, repeatedly raising his voice, misstating facts to reporters over and over, Mr. Biden then went to leave the room.
00:05:03.520
But in what one can only imagine was a move that actively stirred the nausea and nerves in the pits of the stomachs of his core supporters.
00:05:17.020
Only to then refer to Egypt's president, al-Sisi, as the president of Mexico.
00:05:24.300
As you know, initially, the president of Mexico, al-Sisi, did not want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian material to get in.
00:05:42.320
That's the third time this week, for those of you counting, that he has publicly confused the identities of foreign leaders.
00:05:47.460
He also claimed on Wednesday that he had spoken to German Chancellor Helmut Kohl in 2021.
00:05:52.940
Mr. Kohl, by that point, had been dead for four years.
00:05:57.400
On Sunday, he said at a campaign event in Vegas that he had recently had a chat with Francois Mitterand of Germany.
00:06:03.720
Mr. Mitterand, of course, was the president of France, not Germany.
00:06:10.880
Dead for almost 30 years, in fact, and was not recently speaking to Joe Biden.
00:06:15.040
Yesterday, he also referred to red states and green states and mumbled through a remark we think was about Roe v. Wade.
00:06:25.820
He said, when I pushed all these programs, I said, I'm going to be a president for everybody who lives in a red state or a green state.
00:06:42.900
An unnamed Democratic ally of Mr. Biden told NBC that yesterday was, quote, the worst day of his presidency.
00:06:48.980
And already there are Republican calls to invoke the 25th Amendment, which allows a sitting president to be removed for incapacity.
00:06:55.380
Joining me now, Ben Shapiro, editor emeritus of The Daily Wire and host of The Ben Shapiro Show, who has a very well-timed series on The Daily Wire right now called The Divided States of Biden.
00:07:20.120
That was the challenger explosion of press conferences.
00:07:22.400
I mean, it truly was the worst press conference I have ever seen by far.
00:07:27.160
I've been watching these things for well over 20 years at this point.
00:07:49.080
Do you know your memory has gotten worse, Mr. President?
00:07:54.860
My memory, take a look at what I've done since I've become president.
00:07:58.060
None of you thought I could pass any of the things I got past.
00:08:03.740
When you were asked about your age, you would respond with the words, watch me.
00:08:08.260
Many American people have been watching, and they have expressed concerns about your age.
00:08:18.620
Not just was it horrendous, it was on purpose, meaning he didn't have to do a press conference
00:08:26.340
The entire purpose of the presser was to dissuade Americans that the special counsel was right
00:08:30.880
about his state of mind and his mental acuity, as you say.
00:08:35.220
It's 7.45 at night, so he doesn't even have the excuse of saying it's super late at night,
00:08:39.940
He calls it at 7.45 at night, which actually is usually after he calls a lid.
00:08:43.400
Usually he calls the lid like 7 p.m. at a maximum.
00:08:48.860
He doesn't look like he kind of knows what he's doing.
00:08:50.940
He starts off hot for maybe a minute and a half.
00:08:52.960
I mean, I literally played on my show the entirety of the press conference to show how
00:08:57.480
even over the course of 10 minutes, he degrades.
00:09:01.440
The first minute and a half, he is reading off the teleprompter, and then he starts to
00:09:08.020
And as you mentioned, he completely wrecks himself over the question of where he his
00:09:18.560
And he's and he's offering that up and then failing.
00:09:20.320
And then he wanders away and then he wanders back.
00:09:23.100
And then he makes the mistake mixing up El-Sisi of Egypt with Amlo of Mexico, which, I mean,
00:09:29.680
for the record, might explain why we have an open border.
00:09:32.860
He just keeps calling up El-Sisi and saying, shut the border.
00:09:34.900
And El-Sisi's like, I am shutting the border, but he means the Gaza border.
00:09:38.560
It's I mean, what what what a complete disaster area for the president.
00:09:42.740
It's hard to see, frankly, how he survives this.
00:09:47.780
The media can either openly report what's going on.
00:09:50.500
And every day from now until the election will be a question about his mental state.
00:09:55.400
I mean, it should have been already, obviously.
00:09:56.880
And as I've been saying for several years at this point, really, since he ran again in 2020,
00:10:01.100
I've been saying that watching a press conference with Joe Biden is like watching one of the
00:10:04.680
Walenda brothers trying to cross a volcano on a tightrope because it might be the moment
00:10:08.640
that he falls off the tightrope into the volcano.
00:10:10.440
And last night he fell off the tightrope into the volcano.
00:10:13.440
The only question is why the Democratic Party is so convinced that they can beat Donald Trump
00:10:17.220
with literally a person who is not mentally there that they decide to stick with him rather
00:10:21.800
than tossing him overboard or whether it just happens that Joe Biden picked the single best
00:10:25.800
presidential insurance anyone could ever pick by making Kamala Harris's vice president.
00:10:29.380
Because if the Democratic Party looks at the person backing him up, they think, well,
00:10:33.560
here we have a senile old man who can't hold it together for more than about four minutes
00:10:37.760
But backing him up, we have the single most unpopular politician in American life.
00:10:41.560
Maybe that was the only clever mood that Biden has made during his presidency and pre-presidency
00:10:45.600
was picking Kamala Harris to back him up so that the incentive structure is you have to
00:10:50.780
It actually was pretty brilliant if that was the long game.
00:10:52.940
He knew because according to the special counsel report, he's been going downhill for quite some
00:10:57.600
It's not it's not anything new just for the audience at home.
00:11:01.180
You know, there's there's the double whammy in this report.
00:11:03.540
Number one, he did have classified documents unsecured in various locations in his house.
00:11:10.540
Yes, Trump is accused of doing more than that, namely obstructing attempts to retrieve the documents
00:11:16.300
But on the core offense, these two men are accused of doing the same thing, taking a bunch of classified
00:11:20.800
documents home to their houses, keeping them in unsecured locations, including those marked
00:11:27.840
And the second is the shots that the special counsel took at Joe Biden and the explanation
00:11:33.160
of why, despite the fact that he had done some of the same things as Trump, he didn't
00:11:40.420
And that is what's caused all the consternation.
00:11:43.720
To me, it's like the stuff he wrote about Biden's memory is even bigger than the classified
00:11:47.140
documents stuff, because I did not expect the classified documents stuff to lead to an indictment.
00:11:57.420
Mr. Biden's recorded conversations with his ghostwriter, Mark Zwanitzer from 2017, are
00:12:04.400
often painfully slow with Mr. Biden struggling to remember events and straining at times to
00:12:12.860
In his interview with our office, Mr. Biden's memory was worse.
00:12:16.100
He did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview
00:12:21.620
when his term ended, quote, if it was 2013, when did I stop being vice president, end quote,
00:12:29.600
and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began, quote, in 2009, am I still
00:12:37.340
vice president, end quote, he did not remember even within several years when his son Bo died
00:12:47.820
We have considered, in addition to the rest, that at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present
00:12:53.320
himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly
00:13:00.980
Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he's someone for whom many jurors would
00:13:08.300
It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him by then a former president
00:13:12.160
well into his eighties of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.
00:13:15.900
Now, I want to, there's a lot to dissect there, including the left spin on all of this today
00:13:24.860
He did not have to add the stuff about the memory.
00:13:27.920
That's just him taking a shot, inappropriate shot at Joe Biden, much as Comey, in their view,
00:13:39.000
The guy makes clear why he's mentioning the memory lapses, because he's assessing how this
00:13:44.760
case would go were he to get it in front of a jury.
00:13:47.720
That's literally the only excuse he has for not prosecuting, because one of the things that
00:13:51.980
Joe Biden actually did in this case, if you read the entire document, which I spent the
00:13:55.880
time to do yesterday, if you actually read the entire document, one of the things that is
00:13:59.640
very clear, is that Joe Biden did the criming on tape.
00:14:01.920
I don't know why it is that politicians violate the first law of criming, which is don't crime
00:14:05.180
on tape, but Joe Biden literally did the crime on tape.
00:14:08.600
He's talking to his ghostwriter, and he literally says, just a minute, I just found the classified
00:14:20.460
And so what the prosecutor has to come up with is, how can he say that, and then simultaneously
00:14:24.720
claim that he wasn't mishandling classified documents?
00:14:26.580
In other words, that's an admission that he knows they're classified documents, and second,
00:14:30.260
that they are where they're not supposed to be, right?
00:14:32.680
And so what the prosecutor has to come up with is some justification for why that doesn't
00:14:36.180
end in the criminal prosecution of the president of the United States.
00:14:39.100
And what he comes up with is, there's no way we can win this at trial, because he's just
00:14:42.220
going to claim that he doesn't remember any of this, and that he didn't remember it at
00:14:44.880
the time, that he's been in a downward mental spiral the whole time.
00:14:51.500
This is a special counsel who's appointed by the president of the United States' attorney general.
00:14:55.560
So in other words, the person who's working for your own DOJ says that you don't have
00:15:00.000
the mental acuity to be president, and you're going to claim that he is somehow, what, a
00:15:05.640
And what I've been told by the media and by Joe Biden is that if you even say things like
00:15:11.960
And if you talk about the deep state and lifelong appointees to these sorts of offices, well,
00:15:16.560
that means that you are doubting the system of American government.
00:15:21.800
Some of the other defenses that you're hearing, that he tried to trot out last night that when
00:15:25.620
he did the interview with the special counsel, it was the day after October 7th, and therefore
00:15:29.580
he wasn't all with it, which, I mean, that's worse.
00:15:32.260
We hire you to do the job predicated on the idea that as president, you're going to face
00:15:38.640
If your answer to that is, I faced an international emergency and suddenly forgot when I was vice
00:15:42.780
president and when my son died, that's not exactly going to quiet the critics.
00:15:47.200
That was one that you heard Rachel Maddow last night claiming that, well, at least he can
00:15:50.860
still ride a bike, which, um, by the way, he can't literally fell off his bike.
00:15:54.520
Like there's just no place to turn here for Joe Biden.
00:15:58.060
And that is why, you know, honestly, this, this election, election 2024 is basically both
00:16:03.560
parties have the same slogan, which is, well, at least it's not that guy.
00:16:06.840
And I don't know that that's going to work for Joe Biden, especially because Democrats
00:16:10.560
entire claim about Trump is that Trump is orange hitler.
00:16:14.900
That the Biden is the only one standing in the door preventing all of that from happening.
00:16:18.520
If they really believe that, shouldn't they dump him overboard for somebody who has, you
00:16:23.000
know, any elements of vigor and doesn't seem like he needs to be put to bed by the night
00:16:26.960
nurse at 6 30 PM after an early bird dinner at Denny's?
00:16:33.240
I mean, that's the obvious conclusion in reading this report.
00:16:36.660
And yet what you have all over the internet today is spin, spin and more spin.
00:16:42.660
Jim Messina, uh, who ran Obama's first campaign.
00:16:47.800
We've got to stop treating a single line in a gratuitously long, heavily editorialized
00:16:52.140
special counsel's report in which no crime was found, by the way, by a partisan Republican
00:16:57.080
Like it's a bigger liability than Trump's 91 criminal charges and being found liable for
00:17:05.060
I mean, he, he was spinning like, you know, the spin master last night.
00:17:08.480
And the thing that he's either missing intentionally or not is, um, the reason it's not that this
00:17:15.400
single line in the report is changing Biden's trajectory.
00:17:19.420
It's because it affirms, confirms and dovetails perfectly with the American public's preceding
00:17:27.960
The NBC news poll just out showed 77% of the electorate has either moderate or major concerns
00:17:41.300
And, and last night, Joe Biden in the middle of this press conference.
00:17:43.860
So first of all, yeah, I don't tend to like to sort of analyze politicians based on their
00:17:48.660
affect because I'm more interested in what they say and what they do than sort of how
00:17:52.840
But the entire purpose of that press conference was to project an affect.
00:17:56.160
It was to project the affect that he is with it, that he's vigorous, that he's vital,
00:18:01.260
He looks physically wounded by reporters shouting at him questions, which is sort of the norm
00:18:10.180
And, and one of the things that he said in the middle of that is one of the, one of the
00:18:13.080
members of the press corps asked him about the fact that Americans are deeply concerned
00:18:18.740
And his answer to that was, well, just you, you don't speak for the press.
00:18:23.440
I mean, first of all, she may not speak for the press, but she's speaking for the American
00:18:27.180
The polling numbers suggest that he is of deep concern in terms of his ability to even do this
00:18:33.560
How Kamala Harris doesn't become the center of this campaign from here on out, even if
00:18:38.260
I just, would you put, would anyone put money on Joe Biden surviving a second term in office?
00:18:44.400
What is this campaign going to do to him between now and November?
00:18:47.740
And now, again, I think Republicans can get pretty sanguine about this.
00:18:50.140
They can say, okay, well, that means that Trump is going to win.
00:18:52.220
I'd just like to remind my Republican friends that John Fetterman is currently a senator from
00:18:56.580
Pennsylvania after suffering a debilitating stroke.
00:18:59.280
So it doesn't mean that Biden couldn't win even in the state that he currently is.
00:19:03.500
What it does mean is that if you're a Democrat, do you want to, like right now, they could
00:19:08.880
And theoretically, they could pull Kamala Harris too.
00:19:11.140
And that is well within the remit of the Democratic Party.
00:19:13.800
They do have a lot of power, a lot more power over their candidates than Republicans do over
00:19:19.020
You could see a world where they pull the man and say, okay, we got to substitute somebody
00:19:26.080
I think this is the problem for the Democratic Party.
00:19:27.940
They pull Biden, they open a massive can of worms.
00:19:31.560
Well, that's one of the questions I had as I watched it last night, which was, is this
00:19:36.840
Because when have we seen him out there dealing with the press on his own without a handler,
00:19:41.420
whether it's the Easter bunny or an actual press communications person managing who's going
00:19:47.300
to get to ask him how many questions or wrapping him, getting him off stage?
00:19:52.800
And I cannot imagine his top people thought it was a good idea for at nine o'clock at night,
00:20:01.780
every day to go out there live and try to prove how sharp he is mentally.
00:20:07.020
We know we know from behind the scenes reports, as well as what we see on camera, he's not.
00:20:11.000
So it did make me wonder, is this him overruling the staff or is this the staff saying go right
00:20:18.200
ahead because they realize there's an obligation to let the country see what's happening?
00:20:23.620
I mean, so I jokingly tweeted last night, Kamala Harris in the conservatory with the wrench.
00:20:28.560
You know, like person, person who is, you know, getting getting the most play out of this,
00:20:33.500
obviously, is Kamala, whose name is never mentioned outside of bad circumstances.
00:20:36.460
But, you know, my gut tells me that what happened here is that Joe Biden overruled his staff.
00:20:41.300
My guess is that his staff told him you cannot go out there under any circumstances.
00:20:47.560
You know, the special counsel suggests that he is sort of a well-meaning, kindly, elderly
00:20:53.080
And Joe Biden signally proved that he is not, in fact, a kindly gentleman.
00:20:57.260
He didn't he didn't assuage anybody's concerns about his memory or his acuity, but he certainly
00:21:01.780
assuaged people's concerns about whether he's a nice person or not.
00:21:04.560
He came out kind of yelling and screaming at the press.
00:21:07.200
And the reality is that behind closed doors, apparently, that's what he is.
00:21:11.860
It would seem, in fact, most probable likelihood that what happened is that behind closed doors,
00:21:18.580
He didn't understand why people were saying that he's not with it anymore.
00:21:21.500
He spent his entire career scheming to get to the place where he currently is, you know,
00:21:28.820
He thought, I'm going to go out there and I'm going to show the world.
00:21:30.700
And instead, he just proceeded to step in a bear trap of his own making.
00:21:33.280
Here's here's one of those moments that you just made a reference to in SOT 6.
00:21:38.580
Mr. President, for months when you were asked about your age, you would respond with the
00:21:44.440
Many American people have been watching and they have expressed concerns about your age.
00:21:59.920
No one cares what the judgment of the press is.
00:22:01.660
And by the way, the judgment of the press is very clearly he's great.
00:22:05.760
But the judgment of the public, as we just went over, is nearly 80 percent have deep
00:22:17.620
She's a Republican from New York, which is always interesting because that's not like
00:22:21.740
But she's already calling for 25th Amendment that the administration's got to explore this.
00:22:30.420
I mean, almost as soon as Trump started challenging the election results in November 2020, 25th Amendment
00:22:39.060
He doesn't have the mental acuity to do this anymore.
00:22:42.940
Those same characters are not calling for 25th Amendment now.
00:22:45.820
But look, 25th Amendment with 20 with nine months to go, I think you could make a case
00:22:51.900
I don't know about you, but I did not go to bed feeling safe last night.
00:22:55.580
And I'm like if I were in Taiwan, I'd be scared as hell right now looking at that president
00:23:03.420
But the reality is we have an election coming up and there's an easier way of shepherding
00:23:10.460
I mean, his own cabinet is not going to 25th Amendment him.
00:23:12.820
That would be a tacit admission that they had shoveled onto the stage a person who was
00:23:19.760
I mean, one of the things that's amazing about the special counsel report, you read the section
00:23:22.540
where they say that even in his interviews with his ghostwriter from 2017, he was fading.
00:23:26.740
And it was three years after that that he ran for president of the United States.
00:23:29.260
So I don't think that that's a realistic scenario.
00:23:33.140
The only question right now is whether he will resign for the overall good of the election.
00:23:39.800
I think that, you know, everybody has been wondering since we since we entered the post
00:23:47.380
I have to say the writing this season of Trump is just off the wall.
00:23:50.160
This is like this is the revitalization of the of the Trump show.
00:23:53.980
And I can't tell whether the season is good or bad.
00:23:55.920
It's kind of like the last season of Game of Thrones until we get to the conclusion of
00:23:59.620
But yeah, I think that the grand assumption, which is that this can't continue the way
00:24:04.180
I think it absolutely can continue the way that it is.
00:24:08.620
The actual predictable result of this is less Joe Biden.
00:24:12.020
You're just going to get him hiding in the basement from now until the election cycle.
00:24:15.020
And you're going to get Trump, who should actually hide in the basement if he wishes
00:24:18.020
to win reelection, probably not hiding in the basement.
00:24:23.620
I actually don't think that they're going to pull him because I don't think they can
00:24:30.560
No, we have a little fact check for the audience because we did go through some of the nonsense
00:24:37.460
He misled the nation on key elements of the special counsel's report.
00:24:41.860
I've seen the headlines since the report was released about my willful retention of documents.
00:24:48.820
This, these assertions are not only misleading, they're just plain wrong.
00:24:53.060
On page 215, if you had a chance, I know it's a long, it's a thick document.
00:24:58.020
On page 215, the report of the special counsel found the exact opposite.
00:25:02.600
There is, in fact, a shortage of evidence that I willfully retain classified materials related
00:25:10.400
On page 12, the special counsel also wrote for another documents.
00:25:15.200
The decision to decline criminal charges was straightforward.
00:25:19.260
The evidence suggests that Mr. Biden did not willfully retain these documents.
00:25:25.920
In certain parts of the report, the special counsel found Mr. Biden may not have realized
00:25:33.100
And if that's the case, that he then would not have willfully retained such info.
00:25:38.100
But the special counsel makes it clear in the second paragraph of the report that, quote,
00:25:42.560
our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed
00:25:47.580
classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen.
00:26:08.100
OK, it didn't say that you shared classified information, not with your ghostwriter.
00:26:12.700
The report actually found, quote, Mr. Biden sometimes skipped over presumption, presumptively
00:26:18.200
classified material and warned his ghostwriter that the entries might be classified.
00:26:21.740
But at least three times, Mr. Biden read from classified entries allowed to his ghostwriter
00:26:30.040
By the way, the ghostwriter was told to turn over the tapes that he had of Mr. Biden doing
00:26:35.820
all that, and he deleted the tapes after the investigation began.
00:26:45.500
Why is Trump's right hand man, Walt Natua, facing all these charges?
00:26:49.340
But the ghostwriter who's destroying tapes when he knows that there's an investigation
00:26:57.800
I didn't know how half the boxes got in my garage until I found out staff gathered them
00:27:04.360
up, put them together and took them to the garage of my home.
00:27:07.800
And all the stuff that was in my home was in filing cabinets that were either locked or
00:27:14.260
It wasn't out in like in Mar-a-Lago in a public place where and none of it was high classified.
00:27:24.580
However, according to the report, among the places Mr. Biden's lawyers found classified
00:27:30.660
documents was a damaged open box in his garage.
00:27:35.840
Is it possible the president had these documents under lock and key at some point?
00:27:43.960
And all of this will be ignored, Ben, because we're supposed to just believe it's totally
00:27:49.760
The special counsel pointed out that Trump is worse, which I concede.
00:27:52.320
The special counsel did point that out on the document retention and production once
00:27:58.300
But that doesn't excuse what Joe Biden did, because he's been out there for years now since
00:28:03.360
Trump got in trouble, telling us how horrific he finds this.
00:28:08.460
I mean, so there are a few charges that President Trump is facing in the classified documents
00:28:11.960
Some are obstruction charges and some are mishandling classified documents charges.
00:28:15.640
The sort of distinction between the two would only be with regard to obstruction.
00:28:20.380
It would only be with regard to President Trump shifting the boxes around in Mar-a-Lago
00:28:24.180
But the underlying question of whether Trump retained classified documents is exactly
00:28:29.060
the same as whether Joe Biden retained classified documents.
00:28:31.240
In fact, the special counsel's report specifically says that it was totally in Joe Biden's interest
00:28:37.880
In fact, some of the excuses that Joe Biden used with regard to classified documents sound
00:28:41.680
very much like the kinds of excuses that you hear from President Trump.
00:28:44.660
He, for example, had a bunch of classified materials and notebooks that he'd written.
00:28:51.020
That's exactly the same thing that President Trump says about a lot of the materials that
00:28:55.040
So at the best, you can say the special counsel's office sort of distinguished the obstruction
00:28:58.960
charges against Trump from no obstruction for Biden.
00:29:01.660
But as far as the mishandling of classified materials, there's no question that Biden not only
00:29:05.560
mishandled classified materials, he knowingly mishandled classified materials.
00:29:11.000
And then when he got caught, he turned it over.
00:29:12.220
OK, so that is a distinction that when he got caught, he turned it over.
00:29:14.660
But again, that doesn't explain why he was let off the hook on the classified doc charges,
00:29:17.980
which is why it is necessary, again, for the special counsel to say we let him off because
00:29:22.500
we couldn't prosecute him because if we prosecuted him, he would get off because he's old and senile.
00:29:27.560
So, I mean, really, you saw it all over Twitter last night, X, that he's not mentally competent
00:29:33.020
to stand trial or to be convicted in a court of law.
00:29:36.520
But he is to be president, to be reelected to a second term.
00:29:41.120
I mean, realistically, this is going to be on about 10,000 ads, bumper stickers, slogan.
00:29:49.040
Trump's going to be out there nonstop with that phrase, elderly.
00:30:02.300
Biden's lawyers came out and ripped on the report in part by saying it, quote, uses a
00:30:06.660
uses highly prejudicial language, which, by the way, we always used to say in the law,
00:30:12.080
you can object prejudicial and you'll get laughed out of court.
00:30:22.760
Yes, the entire prosecution case will be prejudicial.
00:30:27.320
So it's interesting that they just say it's highly prejudicial.
00:30:30.720
It's it makes your guy look bad, but you're not claiming it was unfair because it wasn't
00:30:34.240
to describe a commonplace occurrence among witnesses like they all suffered from this,
00:30:39.800
Ben, quote, a lack of recall of years old events like when his son died, like when he was
00:30:50.260
the vice president, it's just not going to fly.
00:30:54.300
I mean, what's amazing about this, just speaking historically, is that we have had cases where
00:30:58.520
the president of the United States was incapacitated and continue to serve.
00:31:01.460
Obviously, Woodrow Wilson was incapacitated for the last several years of his administration.
00:31:07.080
And then there are serious questions about at the very tail end of Ronald Reagan's tenure,
00:31:11.120
because during Iran-Contra, he also said that he couldn't remember a lot of things.
00:31:14.560
And that was a major national scandal at the time.
00:31:17.020
We're not talking about the end of a man's second term.
00:31:23.520
That's the part that's so insane about all of this is that knowing this, going in, they're
00:31:29.720
And again, if he were elected, he would finish his second term and he would be 86 years old.
00:31:34.700
Does anyone believe that he is going, I mean, given his state right now, given the amount
00:31:38.320
of decline he's shown even between 2020 and 2024, what exactly does that trajectory look
00:31:45.660
There's not a person alive in the United States with half a functioning brain who believes
00:31:49.480
that he will have a functioning brain by the time we get to year two of term two of his
00:31:54.900
That was the best line Nikki Haley said while campaigning.
00:31:59.480
A vote for President Biden is a vote for President Harris.
00:32:02.920
That's obviously true and more obvious than ever.
00:32:14.760
What states are you going to trying to show just exactly what that means?
00:32:20.480
So we're basically going to all the sites in America where the issues are most relevant.
00:32:26.920
We went down to the San Miguel Gate in Arizona to take a look at how open the border is.
00:32:34.580
Yesterday, we were actually in Kensington, which is a suburb of Philadelphia, which has been
00:32:38.680
completely taken over by fentanyl and trying to focus in on the fentanyl crisis.
00:32:45.260
It's the worst thing I've ever seen in the United States.
00:32:49.200
I mean, you're talking about just miles stretch of road in which wall to wall people are just
00:32:54.100
shooting up openly in the public, rotting flesh, lighting fires, hunched over because
00:33:01.520
We saw two, probably two probable murder scenes in the course of maybe a 15 minute drive around
00:33:06.720
We also went over to Camden, New Jersey to take a look at a place that was supposed to
00:33:11.280
By cured of crime, we mean it is still one of the highest crime areas in the United States.
00:33:15.200
And there may be some stats that are getting covered up about all of that.
00:33:18.160
You know, this country is in serious and dire trouble and divided states of Biden is designed
00:33:23.840
to highlight each of these issues from a location where it's actually happening.
00:33:27.240
So it's not just us in the studio talking about it.
00:33:29.060
You can actually see the footage for yourself and see what it looks like on the ground in
00:33:36.600
So it sounds like you went to the red states, the blue states, but did you go to the green
00:33:51.800
All right, guys, don't forget, go to dailywire.com to sign up for that.
00:33:56.900
You know, not all the subscriptions are worth it.
00:34:01.720
You get behind the scenes stuff with all your favorite people from the Daily Wire.
00:34:07.640
And then every once in a while, they give you something great like this, which is an
00:34:17.060
The media reaction coming in on Robert Furr's special report about Joe Biden is amazing.
00:34:30.700
The partisan hack appointed by Trump managed to turn his nothing burger investigation of
00:34:36.640
Biden and the returned documents into Christmas for the fascists by inserting unwarranted, unjustifiable,
00:34:45.020
indefensible medical opinions about the president's memory into it.
00:34:50.680
And oh, by the way, where's the goddamn attorney general on this?
00:34:58.480
Because not having every fact right off the top of your head at all times is a reason for
00:35:03.480
a Justice Department employee to put his schlong on the political scale and try to throw the
00:35:09.720
election to the guy who plans to be a dictator.
00:35:16.420
Joining me now to talk about the media's meltdown after this Robert Hurr special report, the
00:35:24.900
executive producer of The Megyn Kelly Show, Steve Krakauer.
00:35:33.300
So you're doing double duty today as you sometimes do for us.
00:35:38.680
I bet that wasn't your take in watching The Offense yesterday.
00:35:42.700
Keith, I don't know where Keith's mind is these days.
00:35:46.520
We had Buck Sexton on yesterday talking about some media stories and how CNN has no interesting
00:35:56.960
But man, that is some that is some interesting commentary from the former NBC host.
00:36:06.580
So it's been amazing, though, to watch like the people run to try to do some cover.
00:36:10.740
There is a piece in The Wall Street Journal today, an op ed.
00:36:13.720
The Wall Street Journal is obviously more right leaning.
00:36:19.460
Age matters, which is why Biden's age is his superpower.
00:36:24.840
It's all actually a big advantage to him, you see, because he's got the knowledge of several,
00:36:32.420
several, several, several presidencies, and they have altered his judgment and made him
00:36:39.200
And all this petty stuff about memory is just something that everybody experiences.
00:36:47.300
I've seen people share and say this is why they're getting rid of one third of their newsroom.
00:36:52.880
No, I think that this is the logical next step for a media that's going to try to cover for
00:36:59.620
And I do think that there is a very real open question about what the corporate press does
00:37:05.080
And I think what the corporate press does next is a real indication of what the Democratic
00:37:08.740
Party and the apparatus around Joe Biden wants to do next.
00:37:13.160
You know, we've started to see a little bit of cracks in the seams there with an NBC News
00:37:17.880
report that I thought was well done that really documented what actually is going to happen.
00:37:21.700
But if they're going to really try to trot out this Joe Biden and continue down this
00:37:26.600
path, I think that this is the avenue they're going to go, that Joe Biden is, yes, he's
00:37:31.680
Even he admitted during that press conference he's elderly.
00:37:34.940
But wisdom, you know, what comes with age is real wisdom.
00:37:39.320
And he's so much less bad than Donald Trump because he's not dangerous.
00:37:44.260
You know, he's just a nice old man rather than a terrible old man who they have on the other
00:37:49.260
So so I think that this is going to be the talking point if they choose to go down this
00:37:58.840
I mean, that's it's going to go on bumper stickers for sure.
00:38:09.340
You appoint a Republican special counsel to investigate.
00:38:15.020
So instead of saying all good, he goes off and does partisan political hits.
00:38:20.480
Tommy Veeder, former Obama staffer and now podcast host, Robert Herr clearly decided to
00:38:25.760
go down the Jim Comey path of filing, filling his report, absolving President Biden of criminal
00:38:31.400
activity with ad hominem attacks, like calling him an elderly man with a poor memory.
00:38:35.900
Not remotely subtle, just a right wing hit job from within Biden's own DOJ.
00:38:43.040
And then there's the bit about October 8th and 9th when he sat.
00:38:47.800
That's my favorite part of what happened yesterday.
00:38:51.280
They're going to try to find any possible way of doing this.
00:38:54.280
You know, the I have to say it is kind of funny, though, to see the immediate defense as
00:39:01.080
being that that the person, the special counsel is somehow a right wing hack.
00:39:05.760
I mean, this is the it's a total inverse of what we saw back when when the Donald Trump
00:39:11.860
and the Trump administration went and attacked the Mueller report as as that he was somehow
00:39:16.780
And it was all this witch hunt against him in an area that, you know, essentially, as
00:39:23.620
But at the time, the media would not let that fly.
00:39:26.340
No, this this is that that's completely outrageous.
00:39:33.280
Now it's somehow a you know, this this person is out to get Joe Biden.
00:39:38.360
But I do think, though, that that what I get, like I said, what happens next?
00:39:42.480
There was this really interesting tweet that came out.
00:39:45.620
This was before the Biden press conference, but after the report came out by Astrid Herndon
00:39:52.800
And this is someone who has a I would say he is one of these great reporters that I think
00:39:58.180
he's great in the sense that he puts all his thoughts out on social media.
00:40:03.420
And so it's kind of embarrassing and undermining because now we know what he really thinks
00:40:07.460
when he's supposed to be an objective reporter.
00:40:09.000
But he's he did this during the in twenty twenty one when the Virginia governor race was coming
00:40:16.160
So he's very honest about it and which is to a fault, I think, for his organization.
00:40:20.180
But he said that this is something that's clearly important, a non Trump issue, important
00:40:25.800
to the electorate and that it is a White House and D.C.
00:40:29.220
kind of establishment coziness gentleman's agreement to pretend like Biden's age and memory
00:40:41.940
And he got pushback from people like Chris Hayes on social media.
00:40:46.920
Does that gentleman's agreement now go away because it's so embarrassing and potentially
00:40:51.400
damaging for the Democrats in their fight with Donald Trump in twenty twenty four?
00:40:56.520
And we're going to see that play out and we're going to see it play out on the Sunday shows
00:41:02.120
We're going to get a real sense of whether the media is going to turn on Biden and the
00:41:10.320
It's not like the Kennedy years when he was cheating on his wife and, you know, they chose
00:41:16.040
This is whether he's capable of actually being the leader of the free world.
00:41:25.040
There's the and that's, by the way, what the press is supposed to be anyway, challenging
00:41:29.460
I want to give the audience that we've done some good work on these soundbites, giving
00:41:32.620
them reaction on like the crazy spin and meltdowns, the Rachel Maddow bite comment.
00:41:43.600
This is ageism snuck into a report clearing the person of any wrongdoing.
00:41:47.740
If you want to get the ageism, young people are told all the time by their lawyers, hey,
00:41:51.620
you're way better off leaning into I don't recall than possibly misstating something to
00:41:57.340
If someone says you're too far left, you can tack to the center.
00:42:08.600
OK, just you're much better off saying I don't recall about when your son died.
00:42:14.600
How is that a helpful thing to dodge on about when you were vice president?
00:42:20.700
You're not going to be able to obfuscate on that.
00:42:22.740
And this is what an absurd attempt at defending him.
00:42:27.720
It's one thing to make that argument about the classified documents aspect of the special
00:42:34.760
But as you laid out, the most damaging part about this is not going to be the fact that
00:42:38.780
he wasn't criminally charged, but he still mishandled documents.
00:42:42.340
And, you know, as I've seen another spin, by the way, from people like Jeffrey Toobin,
00:42:45.500
who suddenly showed up back on CNN last night for some reason.
00:42:49.300
He said, oh, every every politician, not just presidents, vice presidents, everyone takes
00:42:54.800
This is a total nothing burger, as was proven there.
00:42:59.480
But what was put in there, the conversations about being vice president and not knowing
00:43:09.720
And those are the kinds of things that you can't get around.
00:43:11.760
These are the things that are not related to criminality, but are related to electability.
00:43:16.320
And and not everyone in the media is going to be MSNBC, which spun incredibly for about
00:43:22.500
10 minutes after the press conference ended and then immediately changed the subject completely.
00:43:27.060
They started talking about the Supreme Court and Colorado and all other kinds of it.
00:43:30.840
I mean, and CNN actually did almost the same thing.
00:43:33.560
They were they were done with this press conference within about 10 or 15 minutes.
00:43:40.860
And I think that that was very clear in the moment.
00:43:44.620
But but right then they were like, we got to get out of this.
00:43:50.840
All of us were texting each other like, oh, my God.
00:43:52.740
And when he came back out, it was like he oh, I wouldn't say he stuck the landing because
00:43:57.560
the whole thing had been, you know, pretty disastrous for him.
00:44:03.180
And then just I mean, the perfect cherry on top of the Sunday, forgetting who the president
00:44:09.540
Well, I mean, I guess he knows he's the president of Egypt, but he said he's the president.
00:44:12.680
I'm not sure which he was confusing, but it was like, oh, you could just feel.
00:44:19.360
I don't know if you saw this, but he walked back off to like what was clearly an open
00:44:25.100
And there were like arms the way you do with your toddler.
00:44:27.960
You have two little ones like, yeah, you're good.
00:44:37.780
You know, Biden's the I guess it was communications director, Kate of Benningfield, I believe her
00:44:45.480
And so immediately after the speech, you have a person who literally was spinning for Joe Biden's
00:44:53.000
And, you know, they say that she did work for Joe Biden.
00:44:56.160
By the way, she she spun that as look at the substantive answer he gave on Israel and Gaza.
00:45:04.420
It's it's on us that we're going to focus on the fact that he said Mexico instead of Egypt.
00:45:08.920
But but really, he's so engaged and has so much like it's I mean, that's that's the new spin.
00:45:16.120
Yes, he's it's what we call part of a pattern, part of part of a pattern, man.
00:45:25.280
President Biden hit back against a special counsel's claims that he mishandled classified
00:45:41.920
I saw several headlines that described it as defiant.
00:45:49.880
Immediately the next day story, people are going to pounce on this.
00:45:53.180
And that is actually probably now that you say it probably where the media goes.
00:45:57.320
I think if we're looking this time next week, how how do we remember it?
00:46:01.260
If again, the caveat, if we really think the Democratic establishment is going to continue
00:46:09.460
What Republicans start to talk about the 25th Amendment?
00:46:13.940
We saw people like Dan Goldman already spinning this.
00:46:16.940
How dare you, the media, focus on these little gaps when you've got someone like Donald Trump
00:46:21.640
who's going to destroy democracy if he's put in office in 2025?
00:46:25.180
So I do think that that's that's kind of the next step of it.
00:46:27.760
But what's amazing about this, the reporting is that Biden's staff believes that the best
00:46:33.840
version of him is when he's angry, is when he's fighting.
00:46:39.720
Now, we don't know, as Ben talked about in the last segment, whether whether he overrode
00:46:43.820
his staff and said, I want to do it right now, rather than maybe sitting back, maybe
00:46:47.320
doing it this afternoon, waiting a little bit of time, thinking more through.
00:46:51.340
But they believe that it's the way to combat the kind of confused a little bit, you know,
00:47:05.820
Here's an example that Dan Goldman, he's very unhappy.
00:47:10.480
It's wrong to think that because President Biden made a simple incidental mistake that
00:47:17.260
everyone understood what he was referring to, that that has anything to do with his mental
00:47:23.200
And especially when you're now trying to compare him to another elderly man who is charged
00:47:29.740
with four indictments, who doesn't believe that the law applies to him and makes all
00:47:34.900
Nancy Pelosi, Nikki Haley, you know, Donald Trump makes more mistakes on this stuff than
00:47:41.480
And for some reason, the media doesn't want to focus on that.
00:47:51.160
And that's another this is another element to the media story as well, because there will
00:47:55.700
be a big pushback on places like X, other public platforms, even on places like CNN on
00:48:02.000
the air to to kind of bully the media, but by the left to say, you know, how dare you go
00:48:12.260
I think we saw this with Fetterman, for example, you know, during the campaign, we look at the
00:48:16.160
Dasha Burns pushback that she got for daring to tell the truth about what it was like talking
00:48:20.700
to John Fetterman, it will they be bullied out of covering Joe Biden and even the special
00:48:27.240
counsel report in a way that gets them to back off?
00:48:31.020
I think that there's going to be an effort to do that.
00:48:33.040
Whether they actually hold strong will remain to be seen.
00:48:36.280
I mean, it's going to be very hard for them to bail on it because we're going to have more
00:48:42.120
I mean, it's like that's that's why this resonates.
00:48:44.560
That's why 77 percent of the population feels the way they do.
00:48:48.760
And I bet I bet they're going to get more egregious.
00:48:50.260
Look at that montage for people who didn't watch the show yesterday.
00:48:52.900
Go go check it out on YouTube and podcast because we we saw this coming.
00:48:57.440
We had all the montages of Joe Biden over the years to watch the quick deterioration.

Now we dive into the mystery surrounding one of the most infamous unsolved deaths in U.S.
00:50:29.860
Jeffrey Epstein's only surviving immediate family member, Mark Epstein, joins us.
00:50:34.860
Mark, by his own admission, was not involved in his brother's day to day life, but he spoke
00:50:40.060
with him the night before he was arrested and has been fighting now for years to find out
00:50:48.000
After Jeffrey's death in August of 2019, a chief medical examiner who did not conduct the autopsy
00:51:00.920
But there has been speculation ever since, as you know, that there's much more to this
00:51:06.900
Mark will share a new exclusive picture with us of Jeffrey.
00:51:12.360
We want to warn you, we're going to show pictures from Jeffrey Epstein's autopsy.
00:51:21.260
It's because they actually may be relevant to how he died and they may be disturbing to
00:51:30.100
He's not appearing on camera, as is his want, because he wants to keep his identity private
00:51:42.940
And thank you for your interest in looking into this.
00:51:47.240
I mean, from the beginning, we've been fascinated by it, like so many Americans have been.
00:51:51.320
And let me give you the floor to just walk us through.
00:51:54.300
Give us the elevator pitch on why you do not believe your brother killed himself.
00:52:01.360
Well, let me first start off by saying that when I found out that he was dead, I heard it
00:52:07.640
So the government didn't notify me, as they've claimed in their report.
00:52:14.780
And at first, I just assumed that, well, I had no reason to doubt it, and that he decided
00:52:29.620
He would know he didn't have to worry about me.
00:52:37.580
But then the next day, they performed the autopsy.
00:52:42.400
And just as a precaution, I had hired Dr. Michael Bodden to witness the autopsy, which I have the
00:52:48.560
right to do, and the city pathologist, Dr. Roman, and Dr. Bodden came out of the autopsy, saying that they
00:52:57.100
could not call this a suicide, because it looked too much like a homicide.
00:53:01.840
And, you know, make it clear that there's nobody who has more experience with prison deaths than Dr. Bodden.
00:53:07.980
And he said he's never seen these results, these like three broken bones in Jeffrey's neck, from a suicidal hanging like this.
00:53:17.160
So then the questions became, you know, if he didn't commit suicide, then he was killed.
00:53:28.480
And then Attorney General Barr came out publicly and said a real asinine statement.
00:53:35.760
He said that he saw, he personally saw the videotape of the camera that was on outside of the tier, where you could see the tiered door going into where-
00:53:50.080
You go into a door, and it's a corridor with four cells on either side of that corridor.
00:53:56.340
And at the far end of that corridor, there's a camera that faces towards the door.
00:54:03.060
So anything that takes place on that tier, you know, outside of the cells, could be viewed by that camera.
00:54:09.420
Well, miraculously, that camera was not functioning that night.
00:54:14.040
But the camera outside of the tier, which showed the door, and it's also that showed that the guards were not doing their jobs.
00:54:23.880
So Bill Barr referred to that camera, saying that he saw that nobody went in or out of the tier.
00:54:32.900
And when I heard him make that statement, I thought, he's either the dumbest guy on the planet, or he's covering something up.
00:54:41.460
One, to presume that somebody could get to that door, go in undetected, you know, kill somebody, and go out and leave undetected is ridiculous.
00:54:53.440
Because there are six levels of security before you get to that tier.
00:54:58.260
This was the maximum security place in the prison.
00:55:03.620
And then when he said he personally saw the videotape, watched the videotape, I thought, this is the Attorney General of the United States.
00:55:10.760
Could I see him sitting by a monitor, watching a night's worth of videotape to see that nobody went in or out?
00:55:16.960
Couldn't he have people in his office watch the videotape and just say nobody went in or out?
00:55:21.760
So when I heard that he personally watched the videotape, and he concluded that it was a suicide because nobody went in or out, I said, this is bullshit, if I'm allowed to say that on air.
00:55:31.380
Because there were, I think, 11 other prisoners on that tier in the cells that could have killed him.
00:55:40.260
Because I heard early on in my investigations, I heard through somebody from a kind of reliable source that cell doors were left unlocked.
00:55:49.420
So if cell doors were left unlocked, I don't know how many or which ones, but somebody could have gone out, killed him, went back into his cell, and that's how it was done.
00:55:58.240
So I've been trying to find out who were the 11 prisoners on that ward.
00:56:05.820
Because if Jeff was killed, it had to be by one of them.
00:56:21.240
Me and other media people have been putting out requests for this kind of information.
00:56:27.780
Also, we know that the camera outside of the tier was functioning, because that's the one Bill Barr referred to.
00:56:34.620
We can't get the footage, it's been asked a number of times, of when they took Jeff off of that tier, when they took his body off of that tier and brought him to the infirmary.
00:56:45.320
Do they explain why they won't release that to you and why they won't release the prisoner names to you?
00:56:56.480
No, but when I did sit down with Justice Department people a few months after the death, all I got from them for every question I asked was, after a thorough investigation, we determined it was a suicide.
00:57:13.640
It's like when somebody pleads the fifth, you know, to 400 questions with the same answer.
00:57:21.020
Now, the question becomes, what thorough investigation?
00:57:24.660
You know, like the EMTs that responded to the call, that you saw them in the newspaper, pictures of them wheeling Jeff out.
00:57:33.560
And they themselves found that extremely odd, because they've been involved with other high-profile cases, and they've stated they're always brought in, you know, sat down and questioned about, you know, what took place.
00:57:45.360
They said, on this case, they have not been questioned.
00:57:47.860
The hospital personnel where Jeff was taken were never questioned.
00:57:51.780
And there were so many sort of rules that were violated here.
00:57:54.720
First of all, when they found Jeff in his cell dead, he had been dead for at least two hours.
00:58:01.160
We know that from the autopsy result, because the mark that was left in his neck, which you can see in the photograph, for that mark to be embedded in his neck that way and dried like that, he had to be dead for at least two hours.
00:58:15.200
Could have been six hours, but a minimum of two.
00:58:29.800
I'm just going to interrupt you one second just to tell the audience we are going to show the picture of Jeff and the mark on his neck that you're referring to.
00:58:37.940
This is the first time anybody's seen this publicly.
00:58:43.820
They should not have moved him because also when they find a dead body, you know, the position of the body, there's a lot of information they can get from that.
00:58:52.880
That's why they tell you to, you know, never move a dead body if you find a dead body.
00:58:57.080
Just get the authorities, let the coroner come.
00:58:59.680
Because what happens when you die and you're laying there for at least an hour or two, the blood in your body settles down from gravity because it's no longer being pumped through your system.
00:59:11.120
So the lowest parts of your body by the floor turn like purplish.
00:59:21.680
So if they find a dead body, for instance, laying on its stomach, but on the back you have this purplish, blotchy lividity, well, they know that the body's been moved.
00:59:32.080
It means the person died on their back and was on their back for a while, and then they were moved and turned over.
00:59:38.700
So that's why you're not supposed to move a dead body.
00:59:41.720
Now, if you read the Justice Department report, which only has one page about Jeff's death, they described the way he was hanging.
00:59:50.840
They said that he was in a seated position, and you have to picture this.
00:59:55.180
He was in a seated position with his legs extended out in front of him, and he was hanging from his neck, right, a thing around his neck, from the top bunk of the bunk beds.
01:00:06.140
And when they cut him down, his buttocks was about an inch or an inch and a half off the ground.
01:00:12.960
Can I just ask you, because I've heard you say that before.
01:00:15.680
If they cut him down, how could he still have been hanging?
01:00:18.080
Well, they said they found him hanging, and then they cut him down to get him out of there.
01:00:24.380
Right, but why would his buttocks be on the floor?
01:00:27.660
Well, because they were saying his buttocks were, because he was hanging, and the thing around his neck was holding him off the ground.
01:00:40.740
He's been dead for a couple of hours hanging like that.
01:00:43.260
So then, but they said when they cut him down, his buttocks were off the ground, and then they cut him down, and he came down the inch and inch and a half.
01:00:52.100
Okay, so when they found him and he was hanging, the buttocks were an inch and a half off the ground, and then they cut him down.
01:00:59.180
Okay, so now if you picture that, and he's been hanging for at least two hours, and it could have been six hours, but at least two, you would expect to find the lividity, the blood pooling in his buttocks, and especially in the back of his legs, because that was the lowest point.
01:01:17.400
But the autopsy photos, I have other autopsy photos, shows that his legs were clear, and his buttocks were clear.
01:01:27.520
We don't see the back of his legs in this photo, but certainly what we can see is not showing.
01:01:35.640
And there is some lividity on his back, but if he was only dead for two hours, and then they laid him down, that lividity on his back could have come afterwards.
01:01:44.780
So that's not conclusive, but the fact that his legs are clear, even if they laid him down, the blood would not have drained up from his legs into his back, unless he was hung upside down.
01:01:56.760
You know, so the fact that his legs and buttocks are clear from lividity, it leads doubt to the fact that he was found the way they described.
01:02:03.520
So wait, so let's just put a point on it so people don't have to figure it out.
01:02:07.580
So what you're saying is you don't believe that he was killed, obviously, in the manner that they're telling us, and that if he had really hanged himself, there would have been lividity underneath his legs and in the buttocks from the way he was found hanging, hanging almost in a seated position just off the ground.
01:02:23.920
And there wasn't any. So is there a working theory of, if it were a murder, how this evidence does make sense? Why wasn't there lividity in the back of the legs?
01:02:37.720
Well, it's because he probably was not hanging the way they say. Because if he was hanging the way they said, there'd be evidence of lividity in his legs and footers.
01:02:47.180
And on that photo, on that photo you gave us, Mark, is that of the autopsy and the, you know, the mark around the neck.
01:02:55.000
I'm not an expert in this, but it certainly looks to me, I have a hard time as a layperson understanding how a sheet made that mark.
01:03:03.540
Maybe we can put it back up so people can see it, as opposed to it looks almost more like a garrote was used or some sort of rope wire.
01:03:13.340
Well, yeah. Well, when they came out of the autopsy, both doctors said it looks more like what's called a ligature strangulation.
01:03:21.120
That's where, like a garrote, where you go behind and you pull something tight along somebody's neck.
01:03:25.960
The other reason I sent the photograph, because, again, picture the way they described he was hanging.
01:03:31.920
His body was off the ground, right? His buttocks were off the ground, and his legs were extended in front of him.
01:03:36.920
So there was probably some weight on his feet, on the lower part of his legs.
01:03:41.820
But the bulk of his body weight was hanging by the neck from supposedly the top bunk.
01:03:49.300
If that's the case, and you could find photographs of people hanging, you know, from old lynching photographs or wartime photographs.
01:03:56.260
You know, the ligature, the thing around the neck, goes high up under the chin and comes up behind the ears.
01:04:04.280
Yeah. You know, and if you look at the picture, I mean, I don't have the video.
01:04:09.220
I can't see exactly what you're showing right now.
01:04:11.760
But from that picture, the ligature mark on his neck is more in the middle of his neck and sort of goes straight back.
01:04:19.940
No, it does. It doesn't look like it's got an upward trajectory.
01:04:22.300
I mean, maybe a tiny, tiny bit, but not like you would expect in a hanging.
01:04:27.540
Yeah. In a hanging, it goes really high up in the front of your neck because you sink down into that noose or ligature, whatever was used.
01:04:34.380
And it goes really tight up under your chin and back behind your ears if it's in the middle of your neck.
01:04:41.440
So, again, this is not the way his body was found or the way he was, they described the way he was found is not backed up by the autopsy evidence.
01:04:54.740
A couple of questions about the autopsy in Baden, who I know and love.
01:05:00.560
And was there any direction given by you to him?
01:05:03.180
Like, there's no way this was a suicide, you know, wink, wink.
01:05:06.440
Or, you know, how did you speak to Dr. Baden about his task?
01:05:09.480
He was brought in because, as, you know, as the next of kin, I have the right, you know, to have my own pathologist witness the autopsy.
01:05:17.120
And if I want to do, if there was a need to do a second autopsy, once the body is claimed, we could take the body to somewhere else and do a second autopsy if necessary.
01:05:27.420
But Baden used to be the chief medical examiner of New York.
01:05:32.580
So when they came out of the autopsy, he said that they did whatever he asked them to do through the autopsy.
01:05:40.420
So he said there was no need to do a second autopsy.
01:05:43.580
And both he and, again, it wasn't Baden's autopsy.
01:05:50.460
But what was his mission as you gave it to him?
01:05:59.220
Like I said, I had assumed that this was a suicide because that's what I heard and I had no reason to doubt it initially.
01:06:06.260
And I expected them to come out of the autopsy saying that, yeah, this is a suicide and, you know, case closed.
01:06:12.320
Believe me, my life would have been a lot easier if that's what took place.
01:06:16.900
I would have, you know, had to deal with losing a brother, which, you know, you deal with.
01:06:30.920
They both came out saying they can't call it a suicide.
01:06:33.520
And on the death certificate, the initial death certificate, because you need a death certificate to claim the body.
01:06:39.820
And where it said cause of death, they wrote pending further study.
01:06:45.480
Now, Dr. Bonin has said that when it says pending further study, it usually takes weeks to do a complete study.
01:06:53.820
But two days later or whatever, Bill Bark came out with that ridiculous statement.
01:06:59.160
You know, now, first of all, he was not the one to declare it a suicide.
01:07:10.380
And then the chief medical examiner, who, again, did not see the body, she claims it's a suicide based on what?
01:07:20.740
So the person who actually did the autopsy says pending.
01:07:25.840
Then Bill Barr says apparent suicide, which could mean nothing.
01:07:29.660
Could be I heard some news reports that suggest looks like a suicide.
01:07:35.360
And then the boss of the woman who did the actual autopsy, that's the one who came out.
01:07:45.960
I thought he said it convinced him it was a suicide.
01:07:53.220
He says some things about how the facility was irregular.
01:07:58.240
But when we saw his remarks, what we pulled was apparent suicide.
01:08:04.600
And to me, it looks like the Dr. Kristen Romans was the one who conducted the autopsy.
01:08:11.180
And Dr. Barbara Sampson, who's the chief medical examiner, who I assume is Roman's boss, she's the one who came out and said she changed it from pending to suicide.
01:08:25.920
It seems like she's basing it on what Dr. Roman did.
01:08:34.520
Also, what I've been told is that, you know, there had been a claim that Jeff had tried to commit suicide a couple of weeks before.
01:08:43.660
Yeah, she might have made her determination using that as part of her basis.
01:08:48.680
But the fact is that he did not try to commit suicide prior.
01:08:56.180
He writes, quote, I was appalled to learn that Jeffrey Epstein was found dead early this morning from an apparent suicide while in federal custody.
01:09:04.900
Mr. Epstein's death raises serious questions that must be answered.
01:09:07.620
In addition to the FBI's investigation, I have consulted with the inspector general who is opening an investigation into the circumstances of Mr. Epstein's death.
01:09:15.720
The audience should know that that inspector general did go on to later release a report in June of 2023 saying they, too, were concluding suicide with more information.
01:09:27.140
And one of the key pieces of information that the suicide proponents cite is the thing you just touched on, which is that Jeff, they believe, they say, attempted a suicide while in custody shortly before this alleged suicide.
01:09:52.720
Because when Bill Barr made the public statement that I'm referring to, he said that he personally saw the videotape and nobody went in or out of the tear.
01:10:12.580
I'm not talking about what he changed for his book.
01:10:15.140
I'm talking about what he said publicly on television, that he personally saw the videotape and he convinced him it was a suicide.
01:10:24.200
And was that the day after in your recollection?
01:10:31.480
But I'm pretty convinced that I remembered that correctly.
01:10:35.540
Because that's why I said he's the dumbest fuck on the planet, if that's what he thinks.
01:10:42.320
Right, based on the videotape of nobody coming on to the tear.
01:10:47.200
Right, any third-rate investigator will tell you that if he was killed, he was killed by somebody already on the tear.
01:10:53.380
So for him to be convinced because nobody went in or out, again, I said either he's the dumbest on the planet or this is a cover-up.
01:11:01.520
And that's what started the ball rolling to look into this.
01:11:03.920
We haven't even touched on, and I do want to get to the alleged other suicide attempt, but we haven't yet touched on the number of things that would have had to go wrong or right, depending on your viewpoint, on the cell block that night for this thing to go off the way it did.
01:11:19.220
I mean, the two guards who were in charge say, oh, you know what, we just didn't make our rounds.
01:11:25.360
The cameras that would have caught anything like this just happened to stop working within a matter of days before the alleged suicide.
01:11:35.200
It was like one thing after another that happened to work, you know, as I say, in Jeffrey's favor if he really did want to commit suicide, or in a murderer's favor if they wanted to murder him and not be caught.
01:11:46.940
And the stuff on the cell block was very suspicious.
01:11:52.160
The two guards that we know about, you know, Tova Noel and Michael Thomas.
01:11:56.280
First of all, Michael Thomas came on shift in the middle of the night.
01:12:01.120
Now, the tear was locked up about roughly 10 o'clock at night, the night before.
01:12:05.900
So Michael Thomas came on shift in the middle of the night, and he's the one who found Jeff in the morning when he went to serve breakfast or something, about six-something in the morning.
01:12:16.940
And it was mentioned in the early paperwork, early stories, that when they locked up the cell, when Tova Noel was there, there was also an unnamed guard number one and an unnamed guard number two were mentioned.
01:12:30.960
So the question becomes, who was unnamed guard number one and who was unnamed guard number two?
01:12:40.180
Or was there somebody put in to maybe leave cell doors unlocked?
01:12:45.580
So why are these people unnamed when we know Tova Noel and Michael Thomas' name?
01:12:55.740
And the thing about the cameras, Mark, I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is they went down.
01:13:01.020
And as of July 29th, and he died, it was August 10th, right, August 10th, July 29th, the psychology department determined that Jeff could return to the tier where he'd been held.
01:13:23.300
The live feed worked, but the recording did not work for several of the cameras.
01:13:28.140
I mean, this was literally less than two weeks before he would die.
01:13:33.640
That, I mean, that is a massive red flag for me, just personally.
01:13:37.780
It just happens to be that the cameras stopped working the day he gets transferred back onto the unit.
01:13:44.540
It's a red flag for you and everybody else who has half a brain.
01:13:50.000
I mean, it's, yeah, I mean, this is the maximum security prison, and they have cameras that are not working.
01:13:55.120
It's just, you know, I understand it's an inefficient place and there's problems, but this sort of doesn't pass the laugh test.
01:14:03.540
So let's talk about the alleged earlier suicide attempt, because he died on August 10th, but on July 23rd, by the way, just so the audience can stay with us,
01:14:11.720
it was July 6th, 2019, that Epstein was arrested at New Jersey Teterboro Airport, charged with sexual abuse and sex trafficking.
01:14:20.260
July 22nd, the appeals court issued an order denying him release.
01:14:25.340
And the 23rd of July, he was found in his cell with an orange cloth around his neck and placed on suicide watch.
01:14:34.240
Around 1.27 in the morning, the staff heard noises coming from his cell.
01:14:38.960
His cellmate, all we know is inmate one, said Epstein attempted to hang himself.
01:14:45.080
Epstein initially told staff that it was the cellmate who tried to kill him, and the cellmate says,
01:14:51.380
not true, I was asleep, I felt something hit my legs.
01:14:54.780
When I turned on the light, I saw Epstein with a string around his neck and called the guards.
01:15:01.960
And then, when interviewed by the Office of Inspector General, another inmate, housed in the same tier,
01:15:09.360
inmate two, at the time of this incident, said,
01:15:12.700
I did hear inmate one call for assistance, and inmate one later told me Epstein had tried to kill himself.
01:15:19.200
Now, that person didn't actually see it, but that's what he said, bolstering inmate one's testimony,
01:15:24.020
that he didn't have anything to do with the first attempt.
01:15:27.500
Epstein told a staffer that he thought his cellmate had tried to kill him,
01:15:33.040
and further stated the cellmate had tried to extort him,
01:15:35.860
and that for the last week, his cellmate had threatened to beat him if he did not pay him money,
01:15:41.560
and that Epstein said he had not reported this to the staff, but he had told his lawyers.
01:15:54.020
And this, the people who don't believe this was a suicide say,
01:15:58.420
look, the people who do believe that this was a suicide say,
01:16:02.080
he tried it, I believe the other inmate, that he did not attack him,
01:16:06.840
because Epstein's story was kind of all over the board on that.
01:16:10.460
Later on, he went on to say, actually, I have no memory whatsoever of what happened that night.
01:16:14.900
And so let's believe the inmate who does remember,
01:16:17.120
who says Epstein did try to kill himself on that first attempt, July 23rd.
01:16:23.000
It's no secret that inmate number one that you're referring to is Tataglione,
01:16:29.940
Nicholas Tataglione, who is in prison for a quadruple murder,
01:16:33.940
which he has since been convicted of the four murders.
01:16:46.060
I don't know for a fact, because it wasn't through me,
01:16:48.640
but I believe he was paying money for benefits or perks there, protection.
01:16:53.460
And when Jeffrey said he didn't remember what happened, I laughed at that.
01:17:02.120
And from what his attorneys say is that he was attacked by his roommate, his cellmate,
01:17:07.080
and he didn't want to report it as such because he was afraid of retaliation.
01:17:15.940
What about the fact that Jeffrey ultimately said,
01:17:18.880
this is from the OIG, I think report is where we got this,
01:17:34.520
I have no memory of what occurred on July 23rd.
01:17:43.440
I don't remember anything that happened in that cell that night.
01:17:54.060
he was locked up in a prison in a small place with these very,
01:18:03.260
apparently he then asked two different staffers
01:18:23.640
there's a lot of things I questioned that don't,
01:18:30.060
And he told his lawyer that he didn't try to kill himself.
01:18:35.960
the fact that he says he didn't remember to me is just,
01:18:43.040
he didn't remember because that's a way to end the questioning,
01:18:50.240
This is from the inspector general report out of the DOJ that he,
01:18:54.900
that he allegedly asked two different staffers,
01:19:23.560
this is the obvious suggestion that the government is working in tandem with
01:19:28.100
somebody to cover it up or may have actually killed him through some
01:19:34.840
People don't put a ton of stock into the report.
01:19:37.620
the same DOJ that Bill Barr was the AG of the same DOJ in charge when
01:19:46.120
And we believe the government's covering it up lane.
01:19:48.500
Look in this thorough investigation that you're talking about,
01:19:53.180
there's no mention that the initial death certificate said pending further
01:20:00.780
They just said it was declared a suicide by a chief medical exam.
01:20:05.980
wouldn't you mention that it was first undetermined and then after some
01:20:23.320
the question about the upcoming bail hearing after the suicide.
01:20:33.380
Why would he hang himself when he still had another bite at the apple of
01:20:41.460
his attorneys called me and asked me if I would participate in his bail
01:20:48.080
you're more likely to get bail if other people have stuff at risk.
01:21:07.280
We were always in communication with each other,
01:21:12.440
And then all the journalists all over the planet started looking into,
01:21:18.200
And then once they realized they couldn't find dirt on me,
01:21:20.680
then they all contacted me because they wanted me to help them with their
01:21:41.120
he was putting up a very large amount of assets for bail.
01:21:46.080
So his attorneys called me and they asked me if I would guarantee his entire bail.
01:21:53.260
Plus he had another friend that was participating by donate,
01:22:06.260
the highest bail in the United States was a hundred million dollars.
01:22:10.840
Someone had put up a hundred million dollars for bail.
01:22:19.400
this would have been by far the highest bail ever in the United States.
01:22:23.500
Now as unpalatable as it might've been for some people for Jeffrey to get bail,
01:22:35.520
they could put stuff up and they deem not to be a flight risk.
01:22:39.240
So Jeff had a hearing scheduled for this appeal on the bail decision coming up in a few days.
01:22:51.340
he had a prior experience years earlier where he got in trouble for some of these alleged behaviors and he got a good deal and got out of it with,
01:23:09.400
he could pull a rabbit out of a hat when actually at trial yet again.
01:23:15.800
I don't think he was looking to pull a rabbit out of his hat.
01:23:18.380
I believe what his defense was going to be primarily is that when he got in trouble back in,
01:23:27.900
part of that deal was that he had a non-prosecution agreement with the federal government.
01:23:35.920
he or other people wouldn't be prosecuted on this anymore.
01:23:38.600
So that's why he was taken by surprise when he was re-arresting,
01:23:59.100
And if you make a deal with the U S government that carries you from Hawaii to Alaska,
01:24:17.740
Just seems like a little early in the process for him to be saying it's over.
01:24:26.460
but can we spend a minute talking about the bones in the neck?
01:24:30.380
Cause that also to me was something that was very compelling.
01:24:37.340
I've never seen three fractures like this in a suicidal hanging,
01:24:44.980
suicides in the New York city state prisons over the past 40 to 50 years.
01:24:59.620
I don't know if you're old enough to remember the Attica riots from the Attica prison back,
01:25:06.840
governor Rockefeller set up a special commission to investigate prison deaths.
01:25:17.700
just about all of the prison deaths in New York city and New York state prisons,
01:25:25.260
there's nobody with more experience than him when it comes to this stuff.
01:25:34.280
It's where you tie something around your neck and you hang yourself and you sit down
01:25:37.980
and it cuts off your blood and you pass out and you die.
01:25:48.380
So it's a soft hanging as opposed to a hard hanging is where you sort of stand on a chair
01:25:52.940
and then you kick the chair out and you really come plummeting down.
01:26:02.560
you don't break bones because you're just basically squeezing,
01:26:09.660
the blood isn't going to your brain enough and you black out and then you
01:26:16.340
You break bones when either they can squeeze the neck and break the neck or
01:26:20.160
as military people have told me the way they sort of quietly kill people.
01:26:25.900
The way you see in the movies is they'll give you a karate chop to the front of
01:26:30.220
your neck and then they'll usually twist your neck on,
01:26:39.500
it crushes your windpipe sort of discombobulates you,
01:26:42.940
incapacitates you to make you less likely to be able to fight back when they
01:26:47.700
So the broken bones in Jeffrey's neck more resemble the result of a hard
01:27:00.500
He was given a karate chop to the neck and then strangled with,
01:27:08.660
he had a CPAP machine that had an electric cord on it.
01:27:12.480
And the cord from the CPAP machine looks more like the neck result.
01:27:20.160
it doesn't look like that was caused by a sheep.
01:27:32.000
then the investigation stops because there's nothing to investigate in a
01:27:50.300
if you walk into a room and somebody's hanging from a sprinkler pipe,
01:27:54.520
If you're walking into a room and someone's laying on the floor with his
01:28:05.160
So the answer to the one question is usually readily available.
01:28:14.660
So that's why there's been no investigation because if they determine it's a
01:28:22.600
And it does make you wonder why there are no pictures that were taken.
01:28:31.360
but I have to stop in the hospital in a different outfit.
01:28:35.460
I have to stop you because you said there's no pictures.
01:28:38.740
When he was in the prison infirmary and in the hospital,
01:28:44.340
that they had a handheld video camera taping everything from the infirmary
01:28:52.740
Where's the tapes on those from that video camera?
01:29:01.020
And why wouldn't I just think in today's day and age,
01:29:03.100
you got Jeffrey Epstein hanging to death in his cell.
01:29:08.860
especially if you're a guard who just screwed up.
01:29:13.700
maybe there was just a complete panic and it's,
01:29:17.060
they had screwed up and they just cut down the body and tried to get him to
01:29:21.320
But you've pointed out the pictures that we have.
01:29:24.360
he's wearing a hospital gown and he arrived there by everybody's admission,
01:29:29.800
So who takes him out of his prison jumpsuit and dress as a corpse?
01:29:35.320
I think he was cut out of the prison judge because they showed the prison
01:29:39.700
So I think they took that off of him in the prison infirmary.
01:29:52.960
the dead guy's arms and put them through the hospital gown.
01:29:55.960
it's the kind of gown that you put on from the front and ties in the
01:30:12.380
That's proven by the photograph you have there that Mark left in his
01:30:16.240
neck would not have stayed in his neck if he wasn't dead for at least
01:30:19.900
If I take a rope and strangle somebody or anybody,
01:30:25.120
but if you put a rope around somebody's neck and strangle them like
01:30:29.800
the mark on his neck will flatten out because you have internal cell
01:30:39.860
even if it was just tied on for a minute or two,
01:30:51.640
They know this stuff and that's why they easily determined he was dead
01:30:59.480
there's still more questions around this whole thing than there are
01:31:01.860
And one wonders whether it'll always be that way.
01:31:04.160
can I just zoom out for it since I have you here,
01:31:06.460
And can you just tell us like one of the big questions about Jeffrey
01:31:08.760
Epstein is how he actually made all that money,
01:31:14.180
we're on wall street or covering wall street would say that everybody,
01:31:17.360
like a lot of people thought he was a fraud because they couldn't see how
01:31:25.920
it must not be a fraud because he's definitely making money.
01:31:32.820
Jeffrey started on wall street back in the seventies when,
01:31:36.200
when wall street was really corrupt and he learned how to make money.
01:31:44.340
I remember when we were young men still living at home and Jeffrey was working on
01:31:53.680
if the general population knew what was taking place on wall street,
01:32:01.100
That's a direct quote that Jeffrey told me back in the seventies,
01:32:05.800
And he started telling me how people were making money illegally and all kinds of
01:32:12.280
I wasn't involved in his business exactly where he made,
01:32:17.340
Other people have told me he was really good at currency trading.
01:32:25.820
I started off years ago in the printing business.
01:32:28.200
I had a silk screen printing businesses and then switched over to real estate.
01:32:36.120
I do a lot of work with nonprofit organizations.
01:32:42.780
I think I heard you say someplace seven years or so,
01:32:57.740
He had all the money he needed to do whatever he wanted.
01:33:00.420
and he had people around him that facilitated whatever he wanted to do.
01:33:13.740
I'm sure you'd heard about the arrest 10 years earlier,
01:33:15.500
but when you heard about this arrest in July of 19,
01:33:28.580
His attorneys called me that day after he was arrested.
01:33:31.260
He told me he was arrested and I didn't really know what to think of it.
01:33:43.120
I don't think he's been accused of doing anything.
01:33:53.320
I don't think any charges were related to anything after that period of
01:34:00.300
he called me to talk to me and he told me that he was getting into
01:34:07.860
Cause he wanted me to hear it from him as opposed to hearing something on
01:34:38.780
So you could make sure that people are legal age.
01:34:47.720
but if it's since found out that this doesn't seem to be any new charges.
01:34:51.980
And that's why I believe he was thought he was protected by the non-prosecution agreement.
01:35:09.660
spent his life taking advantage of underage girls.
01:35:12.780
we've had actual testimonials to that effect by young women.
01:35:18.160
How do you see your brother and these allegations now?
01:35:24.320
I don't find it my job to defend him on any of this stuff because I wasn't there.
01:35:37.000
everyone who's spoken to me knows I won't speculate on this stuff.
01:35:48.840
the unspoken things that nobody wants to say out loud is a lot of people don't believe these girls.
01:35:54.580
if you look at the photographs that are released,
01:35:56.380
none of them look like they were having a bad time,
01:36:16.580
I had one of Ghislaine Maxwell to hear some of that,
01:36:48.860
that's who you should really be talking to with these questions about who
01:37:00.560
but then the Roe versus Wade decision was over return that day.
01:37:06.620
I think it's very great for you to come out and talk about this.
01:37:10.260
I'm sure you get all sorts of blowback in certain corners,
01:37:12.220
but you're the only person alive who was related to him.
01:37:20.960
So I appreciate you coloring some of these lines.
01:37:23.880
I think many of us have a lot of doubts and maybe even more after talking to you.
