00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.
00:00:02.600 Guaranteed human.
00:00:05.120 Welcome, it is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz,
00:00:07.640 Ben Ferguson with you.
00:00:08.960 Senator, over, under,
00:00:11.060 I wish we would have made a bet here.
00:00:13.140 I would have lost the bet.
00:00:14.460 I would have said there's no way the DOJ,
00:00:16.380 the FBI would quasi-raid the home of a sitting president.
00:00:21.960 They did it.
00:00:22.900 They found more classified documents.
00:00:25.780 Apparently, these documents that Joe Biden had,
00:00:28.880 at his Delaware home,
00:00:30.420 date back to the time when he was,
00:00:32.820 not just the vice president,
00:00:34.320 but when he was a senator.
00:00:35.820 How shocked are you by this?
00:00:38.700 It's stunning.
00:00:40.120 Every day, it keeps getting worse and worse and worse for Joe Biden.
00:00:45.080 At this point, it's a level of incompetence
00:00:48.560 that is not just, look,
00:00:50.600 we know that Joe Biden is Mr. Magoo.
00:00:52.940 And for those of you who are younger than 40 years old,
00:00:56.540 Mr. Magoo was an old cartoon of a guy
00:00:58.860 that was basically blind and addle-headed.
00:01:01.140 And Joe Biden is as addle-headed as any president we've seen.
00:01:05.360 But even addle-headed, good God,
00:01:07.680 is there a place this man didn't leave classified documents?
00:01:11.760 He sticks it in his Corvette.
00:01:13.200 He sticks it in the room by his Corvette.
00:01:15.120 He sticks it in his home residence.
00:01:16.660 He sticks it in the Penn Library.
00:01:18.480 He sticks yet more in his home residence.
00:01:20.380 I mean, this is really, at this point, it's Keystone Cops.
00:01:24.460 And there are several major developments
00:01:28.060 in the last couple of days.
00:01:30.800 One, this latest search was done by the FBI
00:01:35.600 at the request of the Department of Justice.
00:01:38.520 The FBI went to Biden's home,
00:01:41.600 spent the entire day searching Biden's primary residence
00:01:45.520 in Wilmington, Delaware,
00:01:46.420 and they found six more batches of documents.
00:01:50.000 It's not clear those six,
00:01:52.160 whether you're talking about six pages or 600 pages,
00:01:54.740 because they haven't specified,
00:01:57.380 but six collections of documents
00:02:00.680 that are marked classified.
00:02:04.560 Within those, now we know that the FBI
00:02:07.040 spent the entire day searching his home.
00:02:10.060 We know that at the same time that was happening,
00:02:13.160 the White House press secretary was dodging questions.
00:02:16.200 And so that same weekend,
00:02:18.240 Biden went to his beach house in Rehoboth Beach,
00:02:21.260 and he was asked,
00:02:22.180 well, why is he going to Rehoboth Beach?
00:02:23.460 It's cold.
00:02:24.140 It's not beach weather.
00:02:25.440 And the White House refused to answer those questions.
00:02:27.480 And it turns out the reason is,
00:02:29.820 well, the G-men are rummaging through
00:02:31.400 his house in Wilmington,
00:02:32.860 so apparently he's got to go somewhere else.
00:02:35.000 So the Biden White House
00:02:36.440 was less than honest with the press corps,
00:02:39.660 less than honest with the American people
00:02:41.380 in explaining why he wasn't going to his residence.
00:02:44.820 The answer was because the FBI
00:02:46.480 is searching it right now.
00:02:48.720 And then on top of that,
00:02:50.440 you have the piece that we now know
00:02:52.200 at least some of these documents
00:02:53.880 are from his Senate tenure.
00:02:56.920 And I got to say,
00:02:57.960 that is really stunning
00:02:59.040 because, look,
00:03:00.700 I was going to say,
00:03:01.800 for everybody listening right now,
00:03:03.280 we talked about the SCIF.
00:03:05.020 We talked about classified documents.
00:03:07.360 You went into great detail
00:03:08.960 about classified documents
00:03:11.180 and how it works
00:03:12.140 when you're in the Senate.
00:03:13.280 Go back to that episode.
00:03:15.140 Listen to it
00:03:16.300 because you went into great detail
00:03:19.260 basically about how this works
00:03:21.200 for every senator,
00:03:22.600 what the rules are,
00:03:23.960 and go back and listen to that episode.
00:03:26.760 And before we get to the shocking point
00:03:28.480 of him actually having these documents,
00:03:29.860 I want to remind everybody two things.

00:04:38.440 Now, Senator, you were mentioning
00:04:39.900 the classified documents,
00:04:41.700 the fact that he had these from back
00:04:42.780 when he was a senator.
00:04:44.420 This is not normal,
00:04:45.940 and people need to understand,
00:04:47.460 and keeping those documents
00:04:49.080 for 10, 20, 30 years,
00:04:51.180 we don't know what point
00:04:52.480 in his Senate career
00:04:53.640 he had these documents,
00:04:55.280 but that's not something
00:04:56.440 that you're supposed to ever do.
00:04:58.420 Yeah, and let me explain the day-to-day,
00:05:01.160 which is I've been in the Senate now 10 years.
00:05:03.160 I have read a lot of classified documents.
00:05:05.620 I've been in a lot of classified briefings.
00:05:08.040 Every single classified document
00:05:09.860 I've ever read for the entire 10 years
00:05:11.420 I've been in the Senate.
00:05:12.580 I've done it all in the same place,
00:05:14.360 which is there is what's called a SCIF,
00:05:17.080 a secure compartmentalized facility.
00:05:21.400 It is underground.
00:05:22.620 It is way, way down
00:05:23.760 in the basement of the Capitol.
00:05:25.180 You go down, you go down, you go down,
00:05:26.900 you go in, you go in these big steel doors.
00:05:29.700 When you go in, it's actually kind of fun
00:05:31.320 because as you're walking to it,
00:05:32.560 the reporters will follow you,
00:05:33.700 and they're asking you questions,
00:05:34.560 they're asking you questions,
00:05:35.540 and then when you get to the doors
00:05:37.360 that are the entrance to it,
00:05:38.360 all the reporters have to drop off
00:05:39.680 because they're not allowed in there.
00:05:40.740 You go through a long hallway.
00:05:42.900 It feels kind of like Get Smart.
00:05:44.280 If you remember the opening of Get Smart,
00:05:45.680 you walk through.
00:05:46.720 It's one set of doors,
00:05:47.680 then another set of doors.
00:05:48.600 You walk through a long hallway.
00:05:50.540 The hallway has all these posters on the wall,
00:05:53.940 and they're like World War II era posters
00:05:57.740 of somebody leaked and people died,
00:06:01.540 and they're cartoon drawings of people dying
00:06:03.580 because somebody leaked classified information.
00:06:05.740 That's covering the walls.
00:06:06.720 As you come in,
00:06:09.240 they ask you for all your electronics,
00:06:11.080 so you give them your cell phone.
00:06:13.600 You give them your AirPods if you have them.
00:06:16.180 You give them your Fitbit.
00:06:17.460 You give anything that is electronic.
00:06:19.640 You hand it to them,
00:06:20.620 and it stays outside the SCIF.
00:06:22.800 And so you go into the SCIF,
00:06:24.200 which is actually a whole series of,
00:06:26.940 there's a big hearing room in there.
00:06:28.900 There are a couple of conference rooms.
00:06:30.400 There are some smaller rooms
00:06:31.420 that have secure telephones,
00:06:32.580 so if you're having a conversation with the CIA
00:06:35.200 or the FBI or someone
00:06:36.620 that's dealing with classified information,
00:06:38.100 you can do it at the secure call there.
00:06:40.900 And then they're just reading rooms
00:06:42.380 where you'll go in,
00:06:43.280 and whatever document you've requested,
00:06:45.120 they'll have it there.
00:06:46.520 They hand it to you,
00:06:47.460 and you have to sign out for it.
00:06:48.740 So, you know,
00:06:49.200 you get a particular secure document,
00:06:51.520 you know,
00:06:51.960 proof that Martians are living right now
00:06:55.440 in the Bill Clinton residence.
00:06:57.520 I'm just saying that hypothetically.
00:06:59.100 I'm not revealing anything.
00:07:00.460 But they're really, really pretty Martians.
00:07:04.380 You sign out that document.
00:07:06.860 You put your name on it.
00:07:08.100 You put your date.
00:07:08.960 You put the time.
00:07:09.740 You go into the little room,
00:07:10.900 and you sit there and read.
00:07:12.400 And sometimes you read for five minutes
00:07:14.020 if it's a quick little document.
00:07:15.300 Sometimes you'll read for hours.
00:07:16.540 I've sat there and spent a long, long time
00:07:19.380 reading through long, detailed documents.
00:07:22.320 When you're done with it,
00:07:24.120 you walk back up to the front counter,
00:07:26.420 you give them back the document,
00:07:28.720 and they sign it back in.
00:07:30.060 They put the time back in.
00:07:32.400 And so that every single time
00:07:35.020 I have read a classified document
00:07:36.420 in the United States Senate,
00:07:37.480 that's how I've done it.
00:07:38.580 What I have never done,
00:07:40.340 I've never read a classified document
00:07:41.880 in my office.
00:07:42.720 Why is that?
00:07:43.320 Because my office is not a secure space.
00:07:45.740 It's not a SCIF.
00:07:46.560 And so it's not legal
00:07:47.840 to read a classified document in my office.
00:07:50.440 I've never had a classified document
00:07:51.780 in my car.
00:07:53.220 Why?
00:07:53.540 Because it's not a secure place,
00:07:54.840 and it's not legal.
00:07:55.980 I've never had a classified document
00:07:57.340 in my home in Houston.
00:07:58.280 I've never had a classified document
00:07:59.640 in my apartment in D.C.,
00:08:01.780 again, because it's not a secure space.
00:08:03.960 All right, but hold on.
00:08:04.760 Have you ever had a classified document
00:08:06.240 in your garage next to your car?
00:08:08.660 And sadly, I've never had a vintage Corvette.
00:08:11.340 I'm clearly not living a full life.
00:08:14.740 It's so the fact that it is
00:08:17.160 from his Senate tenure.
00:08:18.920 Now, look, I suppose he might try
00:08:21.200 some defense.
00:08:22.060 So Biden was for a number of years
00:08:23.620 the chairman of the Senate
00:08:24.620 Foreign Relations Committee.
00:08:26.220 As chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee,
00:08:28.160 you read a fair number
00:08:29.800 of classified documents.
00:08:30.920 Well, you know what?
00:08:31.460 I'm on the Senate
00:08:32.200 Foreign Relations Committee.
00:08:33.600 I read many of those same documents.
00:08:35.780 You don't take them out of the SCIF.
00:08:37.660 I've been on the Judiciary Committee
00:08:38.980 for 10 years.
00:08:39.800 You don't take classified documents
00:08:41.800 out of the SCIF.
00:08:42.660 I've been for I was for six years
00:08:44.580 on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
00:08:46.180 You don't take classified documents
00:08:49.160 out of the SCIF.
00:08:49.980 And so the fact that Biden had
00:08:53.220 numerous classified documents
00:08:55.040 from his Senate tenure at his home
00:08:57.740 in Wilmington, Delaware,
00:08:59.640 means presumably he took them
00:09:01.920 out of the SCIF.
00:09:03.100 I don't know if they were in his office.
00:09:04.700 I don't know where they were,
00:09:05.740 but they ended up in his private house
00:09:07.740 unsecured.
00:09:09.320 That's a big deal.
00:09:10.800 And it's a fundamentally different situation
00:09:14.260 than being in the executive branch,
00:09:16.260 because I'm not aware of any senator
00:09:18.700 who does that,
00:09:20.760 and certainly not any senator
00:09:21.900 who does that legally
00:09:23.400 without knowing that they are
00:09:24.980 breaking the law.
00:09:25.940 You don't take a classified document
00:09:27.800 with you because you know
00:09:29.780 it is a criminal offense to do that.
00:09:32.420 Well, let's talk about
00:09:33.860 one other aspect of this, Senator,
00:09:36.020 that I think a lot of people
00:09:37.300 are asking this question now.
00:09:39.160 It's a theory that I posed to you,
00:09:41.360 I think, what, two weeks ago now.
00:09:42.960 And I said, is this the Democrats
00:09:45.440 offloading their useful idiot
00:09:48.320 in Joe Biden that's no longer useful
00:09:50.860 because there doesn't seem to be
00:09:53.440 as many on TV now
00:09:56.140 and Democrats out there
00:09:57.560 that are really defending Joe Biden,
00:10:00.060 or is it just because
00:10:01.640 this is so indefensible?
00:10:04.800 So I think some of both.
00:10:06.800 I think this happened just as a mess,
00:10:09.220 just as incompetence on the Biden side,
00:10:11.520 and they kept screwing up.
00:10:13.080 They kept thinking they were done,
00:10:14.260 and then they found another,
00:10:15.160 and then they found another,
00:10:16.040 and then they found another.
00:10:17.440 Now, I do think there are some Democrats
00:10:19.440 that are nervous
00:10:20.360 that he's too old to be president,
00:10:22.140 that they want him
00:10:22.920 to jump from the ticket.
00:10:23.900 I think he's going to jump from the ticket.
00:10:25.400 I've said consistently
00:10:26.740 he will not end up running again in 24,
00:10:29.560 but there are certainly some Democrats
00:10:31.480 and some in the media
00:10:32.480 who are being opportunistic
00:10:34.480 and using this to try to push him out.
00:10:37.440 But let me tell you right now,
00:10:38.880 all right, let's break some news right now.
00:10:40.300 Let me tell you what,
00:10:40.880 the next step in this scandal is going to be.
00:10:44.260 The next step in this scandal is going to be,
00:10:46.860 okay, if Biden's Senate documents
00:10:50.800 include classified documents
00:10:53.640 outside of classified settings,
00:10:55.420 which is illegal,
00:10:56.500 how many more classified documents
00:11:00.300 are illegally in his Senate papers?
00:11:02.400 And here's where this matters in particular,
00:11:04.500 which is the University of Delaware
00:11:06.840 has more than 1,850 boxes
00:11:13.760 of records from Joe Biden's Senate tenure,
00:11:18.340 which he gave to the University of Delaware.
00:11:20.320 Now, the University of Delaware
00:11:21.800 presumably does not have them in a skiff.
00:11:23.940 It does not have them in a secure location.
00:11:26.820 During the 2020 campaign,
00:11:28.820 there was a concerted media effort
00:11:31.220 to try to get access to those documents.
00:11:32.880 In particular, there were allegations
00:11:34.780 of sexual harassment raised against Joe Biden,
00:11:37.420 and the media wanted to examine the documents
00:11:39.620 on those allegations of sexual harassment.
00:11:42.160 The University of Delaware has said,
00:11:44.060 nope, they're not releasing the documents
00:11:46.180 to anybody until two years
00:11:48.320 after Biden retires from public life.
00:11:51.400 Ben, I am right now calling
00:11:53.360 for the Department of Justice,
00:11:54.960 for the FBI to examine all 1,850 boxes
00:11:59.720 of those Senate records
00:12:01.820 to see how many additional classified documents
00:12:05.800 are in those records.
00:12:07.660 The answer should be none.
00:12:09.680 But given Biden's pattern,
00:12:11.960 we should have zero reason
00:12:13.540 to have any confidence
00:12:14.520 that there are not multiple classified documents
00:12:18.900 within those 1,850 boxes of Senate records.
00:12:22.620 Canadian women are looking for more,
00:12:25.520 more out of themselves,
00:12:26.600 their businesses,
00:12:27.540 their elected leaders,
00:12:28.500 and the world around them.
00:12:29.700 And that's why we're thrilled
00:12:30.680 to introduce the Honest Talk podcast.
00:12:33.400 I'm Jennifer Stewart.
00:12:34.620 And I'm Catherine Clark.
00:12:35.860 And in this podcast,
00:12:37.000 we interview Canada's most inspiring women.
00:12:39.620 Entrepreneurs, artists, athletes,
00:12:41.580 politicians, and newsmakers,
00:12:43.160 all at different stages of their journey.
00:12:45.360 So if you're looking to connect,
00:12:47.160 then we hope you'll join us.
00:12:48.580 Listen to the Honest Talk podcast
00:12:49.960 on iHeartRadio
00:12:50.960 or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
00:12:52.620 Let's talk about the PR aspect of this as well,
00:12:57.140 Senator, at the White House,
00:12:58.560 because you have two options now.
00:13:01.260 You either have a White House press secretary
00:13:04.460 that's totally incompetent in her job
00:13:07.120 and is sleeping in every day
00:13:09.300 and then going out there
00:13:10.720 and lying to the American people,
00:13:12.740 or she's being hung out to dry
00:13:15.480 by this administration,
00:13:16.720 so therefore she looks like a complete moron.
00:13:19.640 Now, I say that with this caveat.
00:13:22.880 There was a very interesting conversation
00:13:24.900 on The Five on Fox News channel.
00:13:27.160 Yeah.
00:13:27.360 And I want to play the beginning of this for people
00:13:29.520 because it kind of sets the stage.
00:13:32.020 Listen carefully to this.
00:13:33.300 And again, like we said a moment ago,

00:13:42.000 or auto download button as well.
00:13:44.060 Again, this is from The Five.
00:13:45.700 Take a listen.
00:13:46.220 A contradiction city over Biden's docudrama.
00:13:50.720 The Secret Service is ready to turn over
00:13:52.640 who visited the president's Delaware home
00:13:54.720 if requested by Congress.
00:13:57.180 But wait, the White House said
00:13:58.240 those visitor logs didn't exist.
00:14:00.720 Hmm, sounds like a good question
00:14:01.980 to ask Corringe Jean-Pierre.
00:14:05.820 But we all know that's a fool's errand.
00:14:08.560 Corringe.
00:14:09.200 I already answered your question.
00:14:10.320 Go ahead.
00:14:10.640 You really didn't.
00:14:11.520 Well, I did.
00:14:13.200 No, you didn't.
00:14:13.780 Well, it's your opinion.
00:14:15.500 I'm having a hard time understanding why.
00:14:17.400 I just said.
00:14:18.300 Questions about procedure.
00:14:19.980 And I just said to you,
00:14:22.580 the White House Counsel's Office
00:14:23.740 will be able to address that question.
00:14:25.620 From this point on,
00:14:27.040 are you not going to be taking questions
00:14:28.700 about the classified doctor?
00:14:30.220 I have been very clear over and over again.
00:14:32.500 We are going to be prudent.
00:14:33.660 Again, that's for the Department of Justice.
00:14:34.940 Why is it a DOJ question?
00:14:35.820 And let's be clear.
00:14:37.280 It's not your decision to make
00:14:38.600 of what I can or can't answer from here.
00:14:40.800 Let's be clear.
00:14:41.780 So you can see why the White House
00:14:43.720 reporters have had enough of Jean-Pierre.
00:14:45.780 According to a new report,
00:14:46.780 members have grown exasperated
00:14:48.460 and call her briefings
00:14:49.960 a painful waste of time.
00:14:53.080 I mean, Senator, you hear that.
00:14:54.460 And the point that they're making is,
00:14:56.720 is she just flat out lying?
00:14:59.060 Is she being left in the dark?
00:15:00.300 Or is this part of a full-blown cover-up
00:15:02.020 you pick?
00:15:03.420 Yeah.
00:15:03.640 Well, look,
00:15:04.060 one problem that Corrine Jean-Pierre has
00:15:06.120 is that she started
00:15:07.560 with very limited credibility.
00:15:08.960 Even prior to this White House scandal,
00:15:13.380 she demonstrated a proclivity
00:15:15.020 to stand and lie
00:15:16.300 at the White House podium
00:15:17.280 over and over and over again.
00:15:18.880 When she stood up and said,
00:15:20.940 people aren't just walking
00:15:22.260 across the border.
00:15:23.120 It just doesn't happen.
00:15:24.620 That wasn't kind of sort of
00:15:26.560 painting outside the lines.
00:15:28.100 It's just a wild, bald-faced lie.
00:15:30.100 When 5.3 million people
00:15:31.580 have crossed illegally
00:15:32.840 to say nobody's doing it
00:15:34.640 is just,
00:15:35.820 it's a laugh line.
00:15:37.160 Now, the reporters
00:15:38.820 almost all agree
00:15:41.140 with her ideologically.
00:15:42.440 They're left-wing Democrats.
00:15:43.380 So they want her
00:15:44.640 to look good.
00:15:45.860 They want Biden to look good.
00:15:47.380 So when she stands there
00:15:48.520 and lies to her,
00:15:49.880 more often than not,
00:15:51.600 they take it.
00:15:52.400 But when she's made a practice
00:15:54.180 of lying to them
00:15:55.000 over and over and over again,
00:15:56.160 her credibility is very low.
00:15:57.820 And then you get to this scandal.
00:15:59.640 And now this scandal,
00:16:01.000 look,
00:16:01.220 even though the reporters
00:16:02.140 are partisans,
00:16:03.160 they also,
00:16:05.820 they smell blood in the water.
00:16:07.660 They're sharks.
00:16:08.780 And they're frustrated
00:16:10.380 because what she says now
00:16:12.980 every day is wrong
00:16:14.320 and either she has no idea
00:16:15.860 what she's talking about
00:16:16.780 or she's actively part
00:16:18.560 of the cover-up
00:16:19.080 because she keeps saying,
00:16:19.940 okay, the search is complete.
00:16:21.140 Next day,
00:16:21.580 oh, never mind.
00:16:22.500 And then now the search
00:16:23.720 is complete.
00:16:24.340 Oh, never mind.
00:16:25.800 And, you know,
00:16:26.480 why is Biden going
00:16:28.640 to the beach house?
00:16:29.440 Oh, no reason.
00:16:30.160 Biden just thought
00:16:30.880 the beach would be pretty,
00:16:31.840 not that they're G-men
00:16:33.300 raiding the president's house
00:16:35.080 as we speak
00:16:35.760 and we just don't want
00:16:36.440 to tell you
00:16:36.920 because we're the White House
00:16:37.960 and we lie to the reporters.
00:16:39.440 And the fact that the reporters
00:16:41.020 are turning on her,
00:16:43.140 that's a big deal, too.
00:16:44.420 I mean,
00:16:44.660 these are people
00:16:45.640 who agree with her
00:16:46.920 and like her
00:16:47.640 and yet their frustration,
00:16:50.560 it really underscores.
00:16:52.780 It's a boiling point.
00:16:53.080 It's really a boiling point
00:16:54.660 right now
00:16:55.120 in the White House press room.
00:16:56.520 It's usually just one
00:16:57.940 or two people
00:16:58.660 that are being tough, right?
00:16:59.840 It's Peter Doocy
00:17:01.000 and that's about it
00:17:03.300 who really kind of
00:17:04.480 give her a hard time.
00:17:05.500 The rest just go along with it.
00:17:08.300 That's exactly right.
00:17:09.800 And, you know,
00:17:10.940 the five you were talking about,
00:17:12.660 you know,
00:17:13.560 Dana Perino obviously served
00:17:15.100 as a White House press secretary
00:17:16.380 and I think she has
00:17:17.060 a unique insight
00:17:18.240 into just how spectacularly
00:17:21.660 bad this is
00:17:22.360 and it's worth,
00:17:23.400 play what Dana
00:17:24.160 had to say about this.
00:17:26.200 Yeah.
00:17:26.340 has has Korean
00:17:28.380 ever reached out
00:17:29.800 to you to say,
00:17:30.980 hey, I need some help.
00:17:32.160 You're really good at this.
00:17:33.660 No, I'm sure.
00:17:34.180 And look,
00:17:34.560 she's got a lot of friends
00:17:35.560 and supporters.
00:17:36.240 I'm sure she could call
00:17:37.700 any of them,
00:17:39.120 any member of
00:17:40.220 their group,
00:17:41.540 for example,
00:17:42.060 like Jen Psaki.
00:17:43.400 But I,
00:17:43.980 what the judge just said,
00:17:45.020 I think is very,
00:17:46.720 very correct.
00:17:48.280 So,
00:17:49.740 Biden and Klain
00:17:51.080 have allowed
00:17:52.000 this woman
00:17:52.960 to go out there.
00:17:54.940 One,
00:17:55.460 they either didn't tell her
00:17:56.720 and when she,
00:17:58.800 I believe when she said
00:17:59.460 she didn't know,
00:17:59.960 she found out the same day
00:18:00.700 that the press corps did.
00:18:01.960 So,
00:18:02.600 it looks like she was involved
00:18:03.740 in a cover-up
00:18:04.660 if she did know,
00:18:05.640 but she didn't know.
00:18:06.400 So then they're like,
00:18:06.920 oh, wait,
00:18:07.160 so you don't know
00:18:07.540 what you're talking about?
00:18:08.260 So you don't have the confidence
00:18:09.140 of the chief of staff?
00:18:10.400 And they just sit there
00:18:11.360 and let her twist in the wind
00:18:12.600 every single day.
00:18:13.620 And by the way,
00:18:14.540 where is Kamala Harris?
00:18:16.400 Help a sister out.
00:18:17.840 If I were Kamala Harris,
00:18:18.920 I would go into
00:18:19.380 the chief of staff's office
00:18:20.200 and to Biden and say,
00:18:21.480 tomorrow,
00:18:22.360 somebody from the
00:18:23.120 Justice Department
00:18:23.660 is going to help her out
00:18:24.640 and they're going to
00:18:25.100 walk through this timeline
00:18:25.820 or you are ruining her ability
00:18:27.660 to have a command
00:18:28.560 in that room.
00:18:29.720 And when you have
00:18:30.340 White House reporters
00:18:31.300 start to talk to the press
00:18:32.520 about how unhappy they are,
00:18:33.960 it's very hard
00:18:34.880 to dig out of that.
00:18:36.380 You know,
00:18:36.560 at a construction site,
00:18:39.440 it will say 80 days
00:18:40.860 without a safety incident.
00:18:42.940 At the White House,
00:18:43.640 they have zero days
00:18:45.060 of providing
00:18:47.040 inaccurate information.
00:18:48.720 Partly,
00:18:49.200 it's her fault
00:18:50.080 and that she has to
00:18:51.020 make sure to protect herself.
00:18:52.500 That's your number one job
00:18:53.500 because it's the only asset
00:18:54.500 that you have.
00:18:55.520 But the president himself
00:18:56.780 and Ron Klain,
00:18:58.360 the chief of staff,
00:18:59.440 owe her something better
00:19:01.520 than what they have provided
00:19:02.620 because they are making
00:19:03.600 her job so much harder
00:19:05.000 than it needs to be.
00:19:06.100 Ron Klain,
00:19:06.840 by the way,
00:19:07.180 I got to get to the
00:19:07.740 White House Press Secretary
00:19:08.460 Center and get your reaction
00:19:09.600 because it broke also
00:19:10.780 over the weekend
00:19:11.740 that he's going to be
00:19:13.300 leaving the White House.
00:19:14.560 Now,
00:19:14.720 of course,
00:19:15.160 they put this out there
00:19:16.700 like,
00:19:17.100 oh,
00:19:17.260 it's just time.
00:19:18.180 He's been there
00:19:18.680 for two years.
00:19:20.160 This is normal cycle here.
00:19:22.600 Do you buy that?
00:19:24.140 Look,
00:19:24.920 the House is on fire
00:19:26.220 and either
00:19:27.500 Ron Klain got fired
00:19:30.320 because he's supposed
00:19:31.400 to prevent this
00:19:32.180 from happening.
00:19:32.740 And by the way,
00:19:33.200 it's not just
00:19:33.900 the existence
00:19:34.740 of the classified documents.
00:19:36.120 If this past couple of weeks
00:19:39.960 is not taught
00:19:41.060 in PR and communication courses
00:19:43.060 a decade from now,
00:19:44.520 I'll be surprised.
00:19:45.600 Like,
00:19:46.000 the White House
00:19:46.600 could not have handled
00:19:47.520 this worse.
00:19:49.060 And so,
00:19:49.740 maybe Ron Klain was fired.
00:19:51.580 We don't know.
00:19:52.300 And one of the things
00:19:53.100 we've learned
00:19:53.520 from the Biden White House,
00:19:54.480 they won't tell us.
00:19:55.700 They're not going to be honest
00:19:56.820 and fess up to it.
00:19:58.600 Or,
00:19:59.160 alternatively,
00:20:00.240 he sees everything on fire
00:20:01.580 and says,
00:20:02.060 hey,
00:20:02.200 I'm out of here.
00:20:03.240 I'm on to greener pastures.
00:20:04.580 I want to cash out
00:20:05.400 and make some cash.
00:20:06.300 One way or the other,
00:20:07.680 the guy who was ostensibly
00:20:09.420 in charge
00:20:10.180 is leaving.
00:20:11.580 And I will note,
00:20:12.960 look,
00:20:13.220 in any White House,
00:20:14.060 a White House chief of staff
00:20:15.180 leaving is a big deal.
00:20:16.800 In this White House,
00:20:18.200 where Joe Biden
00:20:18.940 is clearly not up to the job
00:20:20.500 and many people
00:20:21.280 have hypothesized
00:20:22.700 that it's been Ron Klain
00:20:24.080 running the White House,
00:20:26.280 well then,
00:20:27.420 that's an even bigger deal.
00:20:29.000 And I thought
00:20:30.700 Dana Perino's insight
00:20:32.300 was really powerful
00:20:33.440 because,
00:20:35.080 look,
00:20:35.400 you and I have been around
00:20:36.260 the political world
00:20:37.120 a long time,
00:20:38.180 but neither one of us
00:20:39.260 have served
00:20:39.700 as White House press secretary.
00:20:41.920 And I think
00:20:42.400 she quite rightly
00:20:43.560 focused on how
00:20:45.640 even Corrine Jean-Pierre,
00:20:46.980 I do not think
00:20:47.500 is very good.
00:20:48.220 I think she's demonstrated
00:20:49.340 a proclivity
00:20:50.080 towards dishonesty.
00:20:52.340 But what Joe Biden
00:20:53.920 and Ron Klain
00:20:54.840 and the rest of the White House
00:20:55.880 staff are doing to her
00:20:57.000 is fundamentally wrong.
00:20:58.580 They are putting her
00:20:59.760 out on a limb
00:21:01.320 and then sawing
00:21:02.280 the limb off
00:21:02.940 and they're putting
00:21:03.440 in her position
00:21:04.220 where even
00:21:05.780 to hardcore
00:21:06.960 left-wing partisans,
00:21:08.420 it's obvious
00:21:09.520 that she's misleading
00:21:10.620 them either out
00:21:11.660 of ignorance
00:21:12.160 or malice,
00:21:13.300 neither one of which
00:21:14.020 is good.
00:21:14.900 Senator,
00:21:15.480 before we get
00:21:16.040 into these documents
00:21:17.140 that you just mentioned
00:21:18.220 at the University
00:21:18.700 of Delaware,
00:21:19.280 I want to tell people
00:21:20.680 about our friends
00:21:21.920 at Augusta Precious Metals.
00:21:24.680 If you have saved
00:21:26.360 for a long time
00:21:27.620 for retirement,
00:21:28.240 then you may be
00:21:30.000 extremely stressed out
00:21:31.400 or frustrated
00:21:31.960 over what's happened
00:21:33.260 with your retirement
00:21:34.040 account over the last year.
00:21:36.280 There are ways
00:21:37.200 that you can protect
00:21:38.220 your retirement.
00:21:39.200 You need to understand
00:21:39.960 that you can protect
00:21:41.160 your money
00:21:41.620 with a gold IRA.
00:21:44.040 Now,
00:21:44.240 I'm excited to tell you
00:21:45.080 about a company
00:21:45.560 I trust
00:21:46.480 and I use,
00:21:48.520 Augusta Precious Metals.
00:21:50.340 They're different
00:21:50.980 because they even
00:21:52.340 tell you
00:21:53.060 if a gold IRA
00:21:54.160 isn't your answer.
00:21:56.780 With Augusta Precious Metals,
00:21:58.240 there's no pressure,
00:21:59.400 just the facts.
00:22:00.900 Augusta Precious Metals
00:22:01.940 is all about
00:22:02.740 protecting IRAs
00:22:04.040 and 401ks
00:22:05.580 in this crazy economy.
00:22:08.080 So important,
00:22:09.460 especially for you
00:22:10.400 right now
00:22:10.840 if you're close
00:22:11.480 to retirement
00:22:12.080 because there's
00:22:12.740 no time
00:22:13.460 to make up losses.
00:22:15.880 So if you've saved
00:22:16.760 $100,000 or more,
00:22:18.560 you should take a look
00:22:19.460 at their free guide
00:22:20.560 and sign up
00:22:21.800 for their incredible
00:22:22.480 web conference.
00:22:23.420 It's exactly what I did
00:22:24.580 before I decided
00:22:26.520 to put some of my money
00:22:27.780 into gold
00:22:28.880 and silver.
00:22:30.580 All you got to do
00:22:31.720 is check them out
00:22:33.220 and let them know
00:22:34.900 that you're ready
00:22:35.740 for that peace of mind.
00:22:37.240 It is important
00:22:38.440 that you're ready
00:22:38.960 for retirement.
00:22:39.760 So call Augusta Precious Metals
00:22:41.440 1-877-4-GOLD-IRA.

00:23:05.060 at 877-4-GOLD-IRA
00:23:07.780 or AugustaPreciousMetals.com.
00:23:10.520 Now, Senator,
00:23:11.120 I want to get back
00:23:11.680 to these documents
00:23:12.440 and you look
00:23:13.640 at the University of Delaware.
00:23:15.420 You want to talk about them,
00:23:17.500 I think,
00:23:18.160 really playing defense
00:23:19.260 on behalf of the president.
00:23:20.400 They've said,
00:23:20.860 hey,
00:23:21.180 we're not releasing
00:23:22.280 these documents
00:23:23.200 until two years
00:23:24.640 after Biden
00:23:25.860 leaves the presidency,
00:23:26.960 whether that's
00:23:27.480 the end of four years
00:23:28.300 or eight years.
00:23:30.000 This is broken
00:23:31.100 right basically
00:23:33.400 during,
00:23:34.300 while we've been recording this,
00:23:35.640 that the DOJ
00:23:36.640 is reportedly
00:23:37.620 considering launching
00:23:38.720 additional searches
00:23:40.100 for classified documents
00:23:42.520 at,
00:23:43.120 more locations
00:23:44.060 linked to President Joe Biden.
00:23:46.340 CBS News
00:23:47.100 has just reported that.
00:23:48.420 Quote,
00:23:48.580 the potential
00:23:49.080 for additional searches
00:23:50.040 comes as the DOJ
00:23:52.260 scoured through
00:23:53.880 Biden's Wilmington
00:23:55.100 residence Friday,
00:23:56.360 found six more items
00:23:57.360 considering,
00:23:58.480 consisting of which
00:23:59.300 classified markings
00:24:00.560 and according to
00:24:01.580 Biden's personal attorney,
00:24:02.900 Bob Bayer,
00:24:03.820 the content
00:24:04.460 of the classified material
00:24:05.440 quote is unknown.
00:24:06.900 Now,
00:24:07.180 his attorney
00:24:08.100 for the president,
00:24:08.840 his personal attorney
00:24:09.460 claimed that Biden
00:24:11.140 offered,
00:24:11.920 quote,
00:24:12.100 to allow the FBI
00:24:12.780 to conduct the search
00:24:13.680 led by the DOJ.
00:24:15.200 It is unclear
00:24:15.960 if Biden has offered
00:24:16.800 to permit the DOJ
00:24:18.000 to conduct further searches
00:24:19.520 at separate locations
00:24:21.060 are now claiming
00:24:21.920 are, quote,
00:24:22.460 linked to the president.
00:24:23.840 How many more areas
00:24:25.120 are there to search
00:24:26.060 that are linked
00:24:26.540 to this guy?
00:24:28.220 Look,
00:24:28.500 I have no idea,
00:24:30.600 but one of the most compelling,
00:24:32.580 if not the most compelling,
00:24:33.680 is the University of Delaware,
00:24:35.820 which,
00:24:36.040 as I said,
00:24:36.740 has more than
00:24:37.500 1,850 boxes
00:24:39.500 from his time
00:24:40.640 in the Senate.
00:24:41.260 That's all in one location.
00:24:42.580 It's all straightforward
00:24:43.400 to search.
00:24:44.520 I believe DOJ
00:24:45.380 needs to search
00:24:46.100 that quickly.
00:24:47.320 And I hope
00:24:48.500 the news
00:24:48.960 that you just read
00:24:49.760 indicates they're
00:24:50.420 going to do that.
00:24:51.000 I don't know
00:24:51.240 how many other locations.
00:24:52.380 I don't know
00:24:52.880 if, you know,
00:24:54.700 I don't know
00:24:55.040 if there are
00:24:55.640 classified documents
00:24:56.900 at Hunter Biden's residence.
00:24:58.300 Of course,
00:24:58.600 we've talked about
00:24:59.300 on this pod
00:24:59.880 how for periods
00:25:00.660 Hunter Biden
00:25:01.540 has said his residence
00:25:02.440 was Joe Biden's residence.
00:25:03.880 So he's lived
00:25:05.220 with classified documents.
00:25:06.740 I don't know
00:25:06.980 if there are other places.
00:25:07.840 And there were pictures
00:25:08.920 of him
00:25:10.420 in the Corvette,
00:25:12.000 driving the Corvette
00:25:12.920 with family members
00:25:14.260 that were related
00:25:15.900 to him
00:25:16.440 to the beach.
00:25:17.560 So obviously
00:25:18.200 he had access
00:25:19.020 to that car
00:25:19.680 during the time
00:25:20.420 when apparently
00:25:21.340 these classified documents
00:25:22.920 would have been
00:25:23.460 in that garage.
00:25:24.160 So not only
00:25:25.020 were these classified documents
00:25:26.420 presumably in that garage,
00:25:27.860 that was the same time
00:25:29.240 Hunter Biden
00:25:30.160 was negotiating
00:25:31.080 a multi-million dollar deal
00:25:32.480 with the communist
00:25:33.280 government of China.
00:25:34.980 So he was making millions
00:25:39.180 from an entity
00:25:40.100 that had an acute interest
00:25:41.800 in getting access
00:25:42.600 to classified documents.
00:25:45.200 We need to know
00:25:46.460 what the subject matter
00:25:47.480 of these documents are.
00:25:49.140 We need to know
00:25:50.180 this scandal
00:25:52.280 takes on
00:25:52.980 a qualitatively
00:25:54.240 different shape,
00:25:57.800 different form,
00:25:58.680 different consequences
00:25:59.760 depending on
00:26:01.180 what the subject matter was.
00:26:02.960 And we've heard leaks
00:26:05.180 about how they concerned Iran,
00:26:07.140 how they concerned China,
00:26:08.540 how they concerned Ukraine.
00:26:09.920 We need to know
00:26:10.720 the specifics.
00:26:11.380 And I will say this,
00:26:12.700 if there is even
00:26:14.120 one classified document
00:26:15.740 that concerns Burisma
00:26:17.920 and Hunter Biden
00:26:19.180 or concerns
00:26:20.740 the communist China
00:26:21.900 entities
00:26:23.540 that were negotiating
00:26:24.900 and paying millions
00:26:26.400 to Hunter Biden,
00:26:27.960 this enters the realm
00:26:29.480 of serious criminal activity.
00:26:32.840 We don't know that
00:26:33.460 to be the case,
00:26:34.380 but that is a major escalation
00:26:36.860 and I think the public
00:26:37.740 deserves to know.
00:26:39.360 And let me say,
00:26:40.120 by the way,
00:26:41.360 you played a minute ago
00:26:42.640 Corrine Jean-Pierre's
00:26:43.860 multiple dodges
00:26:44.740 of I'm not answering that,
00:26:45.780 I'm not answering that,
00:26:46.940 ask DOJ.
00:26:48.400 DOJ has publicly said,
00:26:49.960 hey, nothing on our end
00:26:51.400 stops the White House
00:26:52.400 from answering questions.
00:26:53.480 So, for example,
00:26:54.700 Corrine Jean-Pierre was asked,
00:26:57.480 Joe Biden said
00:26:58.560 it was irresponsible,
00:27:00.060 that's the word he used,
00:27:01.160 for Donald Trump
00:27:01.840 to have classified documents
00:27:03.280 in one location
00:27:04.600 at Mar-a-Lago
00:27:05.380 at his residence.
00:27:07.620 Was it also irresponsible
00:27:09.500 for Joe Biden to do that?
00:27:11.480 And Corrine Jean-Pierre
00:27:12.180 refused to answer.
00:27:13.040 She said, nope,
00:27:13.940 you got to ask DOJ.
00:27:15.260 And DOJ said, hey,
00:27:17.020 no bar on our end
00:27:18.940 to her answering those questions.
00:27:20.240 It's just politics.
00:27:21.340 They didn't say this.
00:27:22.320 This is me now.
00:27:23.320 It's just covering
00:27:24.540 the rear end
00:27:25.860 of the president
00:27:26.640 refusing to answer
00:27:27.680 those questions
00:27:28.500 because the answer
00:27:30.320 is obvious
00:27:31.260 and that's why
00:27:33.260 they're trying
00:27:33.640 to run away from it.
00:27:34.380 Yeah, and for people
00:27:35.600 to understand just now
00:27:36.660 how many documents
00:27:37.460 we're up to
00:27:37.900 to put in perspective
00:27:38.760 on top of the trove
00:27:40.620 that was unearthed Friday
00:27:41.660 at his house,
00:27:43.420 that now is added
00:27:44.940 to the additional
00:27:45.940 25 classified documents
00:27:47.820 found by Biden's,
00:27:49.780 quote,
00:27:49.900 personal moving attorneys
00:27:51.840 in the past week
00:27:52.800 at the Penn Biden Center
00:27:53.760 and Biden's residence.
00:27:55.540 We also,
00:27:56.560 and this goes back
00:27:57.700 to the,
00:27:58.000 I think,
00:27:58.960 the disaster of this
00:28:00.140 from the White House.
00:28:01.500 Biden again stated,
00:28:02.860 Senator,
00:28:03.040 on Thursday,
00:28:03.900 quote,
00:28:04.140 that he had no regrets
00:28:05.220 about mishandling
00:28:06.140 classified materials
00:28:07.200 and claimed there were,
00:28:09.160 that claimed there was,
00:28:11.640 no there there.
00:28:14.060 The classified documents,
00:28:15.700 he says,
00:28:16.380 they were initially earthed.
00:28:17.740 We've done the unearthed.
00:28:18.660 We've done this the right way.
00:28:19.880 We were fully,
00:28:21.220 quote,
00:28:21.380 cooperating,
00:28:22.040 looking forward
00:28:22.580 to getting this resolved quickly.
00:28:24.180 I think you're going to find
00:28:25.360 that there's,
00:28:25.840 there's nothing there.
00:28:27.020 I have no regrets.
00:28:28.380 He said it again.
00:28:29.720 I'm following
00:28:30.400 what the lawyers
00:28:31.160 have told me
00:28:31.740 they want to do.
00:28:32.440 That's exactly
00:28:33.140 what we're doing.
00:28:34.400 There's no there there.
00:28:37.440 Fast forward.
00:28:38.540 The liberal Washington Post
00:28:40.220 is now reporting
00:28:41.100 that the White House
00:28:42.600 and the DOJ
00:28:44.260 basically had an agreement
00:28:46.140 to cover up
00:28:47.460 and hide
00:28:48.480 President Joe Biden's
00:28:49.500 classified document scandal
00:28:50.980 from the American people
00:28:52.220 until it leaked
00:28:54.120 to the press
00:28:54.860 despite their repeated
00:28:56.000 claims of transparency.
00:28:57.240 And the Washington Post Center
00:28:59.340 is who is reporting
00:29:00.460 that the White House
00:29:01.360 and the DOJ
00:29:02.040 had an agreement
00:29:03.260 to hide this
00:29:04.020 from the American people.
00:29:05.340 Yeah, look,
00:29:06.020 there's a simple question
00:29:07.140 that is obvious.
00:29:08.920 Why is the Biden DOJ
00:29:10.520 not leaked anything
00:29:12.360 about this investigation?
00:29:13.840 They didn't leak it
00:29:14.980 on November 2nd
00:29:16.640 before the election
00:29:17.580 when the documents
00:29:18.860 allegedly were first discovered.
00:29:20.600 They didn't leak it
00:29:21.720 in the days
00:29:22.360 and weeks that followed.
00:29:23.620 They haven't leaked
00:29:24.520 the contents
00:29:25.240 of the documents.
00:29:26.160 They haven't spread
00:29:27.260 the documents
00:29:27.920 all over the floor
00:29:28.820 and taken a picture
00:29:29.640 and put it out
00:29:30.220 on the Internet.
00:29:30.840 All of the things
00:29:31.500 they've done
00:29:32.040 to Donald Trump,
00:29:33.300 their leaks,
00:29:34.520 look, you would expect
00:29:35.600 their leaks
00:29:36.200 to come from the DNC.
00:29:37.620 You would expect
00:29:38.320 an explicitly
00:29:39.740 partisan organization
00:29:40.840 to put out stories
00:29:42.240 that are harmful
00:29:43.340 to the other party.
00:29:45.000 It is amazing
00:29:46.040 how the Biden DOJ
00:29:47.980 leaks nothing on this
00:29:49.640 because I believe
00:29:51.640 their objective
00:29:52.460 is to protect him politically
00:29:54.060 rather than enforce
00:29:56.080 the law fairly
00:29:57.240 and directly.
00:29:58.360 As you know,
00:29:58.780 it's why I wrote
00:29:59.520 my last book,
00:30:00.560 Justice Corrupted.
00:30:01.680 The last book I wrote
00:30:03.080 goes into detail
00:30:05.900 about how this Biden
00:30:07.060 Justice Department
00:30:08.100 is the most politicized,
00:30:09.900 is the most partisan
00:30:11.060 Justice Department
00:30:12.260 this country's ever seen.
00:30:14.000 And I think
00:30:14.500 the disparate treatment
00:30:16.540 between raiding Mar-a-Lago
00:30:19.340 in the bright
00:30:20.760 Klieg lights of day
00:30:22.100 versus surreptitiously
00:30:23.820 searching Biden's home
00:30:25.320 and then keeping
00:30:26.260 everything secret,
00:30:28.060 I think the double standard
00:30:29.620 is obvious
00:30:30.300 to anyone watching.
00:30:32.300 It certainly is.
00:30:33.160 Senator,
00:30:33.340 one last question
00:30:34.140 that deals with
00:30:34.840 a different issue.
00:30:35.720 I'm going to throw
00:30:36.100 you a quick curveball.
00:30:37.620 There is a quietly released
00:30:40.080 Energy Department report
00:30:41.800 that now admits
00:30:43.480 it was, quote,
00:30:44.300 a mistake in canceling
00:30:45.700 the Keystone XL pipeline
00:30:47.340 and actually shows
00:30:48.680 the economic benefits
00:30:49.900 of that pipeline.
00:30:51.140 It just seems to have
00:30:52.620 come out two and a half
00:30:53.460 years too late.
00:30:54.380 I love how this
00:30:55.820 quietly gets released
00:30:57.360 by the Energy Department.
00:30:59.220 Welcome to the Captain
00:31:00.340 Obvious Report
00:31:01.220 of the Year.
00:31:02.620 Well, look,
00:31:03.440 that's true,
00:31:04.420 but I'd actually be happy
00:31:06.600 if any decision maker
00:31:08.580 in the Biden administration
00:31:09.800 learned a lesson from it.
00:31:10.940 If they said,
00:31:11.520 oh,
00:31:12.340 we suddenly realize
00:31:13.860 that hurting
00:31:15.780 U.S. energy production
00:31:17.160 and boosting the production
00:31:18.540 of our enemies
00:31:19.240 like Russia,
00:31:20.300 like Iran,
00:31:20.920 like Venezuela
00:31:21.480 is really bad for America.
00:31:22.860 It's bad for the environment.
00:31:24.020 It's bad for our national security.
00:31:25.380 It's bad for jobs.
00:31:26.620 It's just a loser all around.
00:31:28.120 If they actually learned that,
00:31:30.380 I wouldn't care why
00:31:31.180 they learned that.
00:31:31.920 To be honest,
00:31:32.520 I'd celebrate the report.
00:31:33.880 The problem with the report,
00:31:36.120 nobody who has any authority
00:31:37.880 cares what's in that report.
00:31:39.640 They are continuing
00:31:40.800 day after day after day
00:31:42.520 to do everything they can
00:31:44.420 to shut down,
00:31:45.320 to stifle U.S. energy production,
00:31:48.500 to hurt jobs in America,
00:31:50.640 to drive up the cost
00:31:52.080 of gasoline
00:31:53.140 for American families,
00:31:54.480 and bizarrely
00:31:56.040 to shift more and more
00:31:58.540 production to our enemies
00:32:00.120 like Iran and Russia
00:32:02.400 and Venezuela.
00:32:03.360 It makes no sense
00:32:04.860 and these ideologues,
00:32:06.760 they don't listen to reason.
00:32:09.180 They never do.
00:32:10.060 They never do.
00:32:10.760 Senator,
00:32:11.360 always a pleasure.

00:32:18.820 With this much breaking news,
00:32:20.400 I would not be surprised
00:32:21.720 if in the days
00:32:22.320 and the weeks ahead
00:32:22.940 we ended up doing
00:32:24.180 unscheduled bonus episodes
00:32:27.300 of this show.
00:32:28.580 All right, Ben,
00:32:29.220 Ben, let's take a raffle.
00:32:30.940 Where are the next documents?
00:32:32.700 What are they or when?
00:32:34.420 Where?
00:32:35.200 Where are they located?
00:32:36.860 It's got to be,
00:32:39.260 my gut is,
00:32:40.740 where they are hanging out
00:32:41.620 right now,
00:32:42.240 I would guess,
00:32:43.340 at the beach.
00:32:44.540 The beach is not a bad call.
00:32:47.380 I mean,
00:32:47.640 maybe he's cleaning house
00:32:48.800 right now,
00:32:49.280 no pun intended, right?
00:32:50.440 If you know they've nailed you
00:32:51.480 at Delaware,
00:32:52.200 why not go to the beach house
00:32:53.440 and clean that place up
00:32:54.940 or sit around all weekend
00:32:56.580 and go through documents?
00:32:58.400 So you would certainly think
00:33:00.220 if the FBI raided
00:33:02.160 his Wilmington house,
00:33:04.500 Rehoboth Beach would be next.
00:33:05.720 So that's probably
00:33:06.600 the odds are with you.
00:33:08.980 I do not know
00:33:09.940 if he owns
00:33:10.540 any other properties.
00:33:12.400 I cannot imagine
00:33:14.020 why the FBI
00:33:15.360 would not
00:33:16.280 at this point
00:33:17.860 search every property
00:33:19.280 he owns.
00:33:22.920 And so we'll see
00:33:23.940 what comes up.
00:33:24.940 You know the one
00:33:25.960 I really wish they'd look at
00:33:27.100 and not because of
00:33:28.040 any of the stuff
00:33:28.540 from the laptop?
00:33:29.480 I just got to think
00:33:30.800 the offices
00:33:31.520 that were shared
00:33:33.100 and the documents
00:33:34.560 that could have been
00:33:35.100 co-mingled
00:33:35.800 between
00:33:36.720 Jimmy Biden,
00:33:37.960 James Biden,
00:33:38.520 the brother,
00:33:39.480 Hunter Biden,
00:33:40.060 and Joe Biden
00:33:41.020 if they were this
00:33:43.100 careless
00:33:44.720 with classified documents.
00:33:46.440 I think there's
00:33:47.280 got to be
00:33:47.920 a decent chance
00:33:48.640 when they were
00:33:48.940 packing up their
00:33:49.620 joint offices
00:33:50.560 they could have
00:33:51.100 co-mingled documents
00:33:52.080 between Jimmy.
00:33:53.280 I mean certainly
00:33:53.900 since his Senate years
00:33:54.880 if we're finding
00:33:55.440 these documents
00:33:56.120 back in the day
00:33:56.720 when he was a senator.
00:33:58.020 Well we shall see.
00:33:59.880 I feel confident
00:34:00.880 these are not the last
00:34:03.080 classified documents
00:34:04.460 that Biden is going to say
00:34:07.420 oops sorry
00:34:08.260 got him again.
00:34:08.980 Yeah it's my bad.
00:34:11.220 All right we'll see you guys
00:34:12.600 back here on Wednesday
00:34:13.580 if not sooner.
00:34:15.180 Have a great couple of days
