Today is Tuesday, June 3rd, 2025.
Man, we're not covered in rainbow vomit.
It's unbelievable.
Something wild has happened in culture
and we documented something remarkable yesterday.
Can't wait to share it with you.
Trump's Justice Department has decided
they will be investigating criminally Joe Biden's pardons
and use of the auto pen.
Uh-oh, how is Joe Biden going to explain 8,000 pardons?
Somebody please, please, very slowly and calmly
explain that to me.
How does Joe Biden, who we saw fall ass backwards
down the Air Force One stairs multiple times?
We saw Joe Biden fall flat on his face,
walking across a flat stage. We saw Joe Biden fall flat on his face, walking across a flat stage.
We saw Joe Biden incapable of using the English language, making up words. He went through
and reviewed 8,000 pardons? No. No. It was a criminal enterprise. The entire White House,
it was a fake White House, it was a fake presidency, it was a criminal enterprise.
Donald Trump saying that Joe Biden's a robot and that he's a clone and that there is no Joe Biden. We'll explore that
interesting claim. Today, ladies and gentlemen, Target has canceled Pride Month officially. We're
excited to show you the evidence of all that. Representatives Darrell Issa, Will Chamberlain,
and Brett Coleman will be joining the program. a suite of legal experts to talk about Biden pardons
and greater cultural issues.
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Benny Johnson
and this is the Benny Show.
We know that you are feeling financial pressure.
There is financial pressure right now.
There's rocky ups and downs.
It's just the way it's gonna be
as you reset the global economy. Make sure that credit card debt ain't eating you alive with my friends at American financing
American financing are the people who you should call if you want to get out of credit card back get credit card debt
credit card debt
Is criminal the way that I think about it?
It's very weird
But it's something that I do agree with AOC and Bernie Sanders on,
that they shouldn't be able to charge 30% interest rates
on these kinds of things.
I do agree that that should be capped.
I think Trump agrees with that as well.
Anyway, the point is, don't second guess yourself here.
Credit card debt is real killer.
It's a way that really shackles you and handcuffs you
away from the American dream.
I want you to have the American dream.
You should call American financing today to unlock that American dream. They're saving to have the American dream. You should call American financing today
to unlock that American dream.
They're saving their customers an average of $800 a month
by using the equity in their homes
to finally break free of credit card debt.
You owe it to your family to see what's possible.
No upfront fees, no pressure.
It costs you absolutely nothing.
Get out of debt today.
Call American financing at 888-528-1219.
That's 888-528-1219, americanfinancing.net slash Benny.
Okay.
All right.
I know, I know that maybe people are like,
okay, it's a culture war.
It was like, why do you care about Target?
Why do you care about Bud Light?
Why does it matter?
It matters because these are things that belong to all of us.
It's like when you want someone to desecrate
the American flag. It's like when you want someone to desecrate the American flag.
It's like when you want somebody to burn an American flag.
Like, no, no effort, that belongs to us.
That doesn't belong to you, that belongs to all of us.
It's almost like, if you wanna even rewind it back
a little bit, it's like watching like your local sports team
that you grew up watching, like make a terrible decision, terrible decision, right? With who's going to be the
coach or who's going to be, or like, you know, I'm saying this to personally attack ALX right
now, like the Patriots getting rid of Tom Brady, sending them down to Tampa to win another
Superbowl. Clearly the Patriots had another Superbowl in them. They just moved the Patriots
out of Tampa and we won a Superbowl. Look at that.
That like, that's painful.
It sucks to sit there and to watch it
because you're like, wow, like I like the Patriots
and that hurts me because that like kind of belongs to me.
Right?
It's like, it's part of my being, it's fabric, you know,
it's a part of how I identify myself.
Right?
And so when you have these like large scale brands that are being used to push groomer satanic
propaganda on our children, well, that's really dangerous
because not only are these brands really powerful, and you
know, really wealthy, and to be taken to have such an asset used
in wartime. I mean, it's a war, right?
We're fighting a war.
Remember, this is a culture war.
It's a battle.
Someone's going to win and someone's going to lose.
There's no such thing as a stalemate in war.
Someone's always winning and someone's always losing.
So it's very scary moment to see such
billion and trillion dollar companies taken, like totally shot through by our political
enemies and used as a cudgel against us.
And then going after our children, how many children go through target?
The target one is almost more important than the Bud Light one, because there's like no
kids drinking Bud Light.
Okay.
And you know, unless you're in the high Hills don't, we're not encouraging that on the show.
I'm just saying there's a lifestyle and you know, Appalachia.
But the point is, is that like the Bud Light thing
was like purely an adult thing technically, right?
It's like an adult alcohol is like, you know,
21 and older kind of thing.
Target was a kid's thing.
And I want to bring you just because I want to like cover
this quickly to like, cause I, you know, now we're three days into whatever fake pride month thing
that they have made up. It's like, you know, America's birthday gets one day, veterans day
and Memorial day is one day. Right. But there's entire pride month. That's, that's, that's obscene.
This should be called veterans month. I guess I don't, you know, pro America month. Donald Trump's doing America 250. We have big announcements on that
coming. America 250. That's a celebration of America for an entire year. Boom. That's how it's
done. The point of this little rant is that these things matter. This is a battlefield and our And our enemies, which are demonic predators, right?
Our enemies are taking these huge brands and using them to literally targeting our children
with them and using them against us.
And that's a show of force and cultural power.
That's a show that's a loss for us in the culture war.
Well, damn it, we wouldn't allow it.
That's something we're not going to let happen here. So we became sort of the face, I think in part of
the boycott target movement. This boycott target movement was rip roaring. We went to our local
target and we showed people what this was.
You know, sometimes you see these things online
and you're like, that can't be real.
So I went and checked it out.
About 15 minutes from where we broadcast, there's a Target.
Get my car, head over there.
Here's what I found inside of Target.
This is gonna make your stomach turn.
It again, it's like looking at the ruins
of like a bygone child sacrificing cult in like the high Amazon.
It's it's it's when I was watching it myself in pre-production, I like I couldn't believe
how bad things had gotten. Here's what Target looked like before we as a movement changed this country.
Continue.
Alright, so about 15 steps in.
Here we are, ladies and gentlemen.
Right here, right at the front of the store.
Right here in Tampa, Florida.
Here's not just the display with adults featured in it,
but toddlers featured in it.
There's a little kid right in front of the pride display along with of course an adult wearing a
shirt with naked adults on them. Hee hee they. Got it? And no one's wearing clothes. Right next to
a little kid. What I find interesting about this is that it's also right next to the children's
section. See this? This is all the kids section here. Don't tell me that's by accident. There you go.
You literally can't get to this kids section without walking through here.
Let's go check out some of these items.
We've got bibs.
I am always proud of you.
Bibs.
Bibs.
He, she, ze, they.
An enormous portion of the content inside of this pretty massive display, because it
goes from here to here, is geared towards children.
Infants, in fact.
I am proud.
This one's in Spanish.
I wonder how many of these they've sold. Right next to the trans people will always exist.
Sure. Here is a 12 months pride onesie. Target saying they got rid of these. Nope. And here's
the famous tuck. Tuckable swimsuit. Here tucked away. Not too subtly. There you go. There
it is. Tuck friendly. I'm like Alex Stein, I'm not gonna try one of these on,
but there's your extra crotch coverage for whatever,
whatever private part you decide to put
into this 3X swimsuit here.
That's on you.
You can see some of this,
some of the clothing is adult themed,
but a considerable portion of it is child themed.
See here, a teeny little skirt.
This is for, this is 5T.
So this is for toddlers.
Just absolutely shocking stuff.
But here, this is very interesting.
Look at this.
We belong everywhere.
This somewhat benign piece is actually designed
by this company, which is a satanic company. This is literally made by Satanist.
Eric Carnell is a Satanist.
Now Target says he has a love of all things spooky
to create his work.
Nope, this guy is the guy who says Satan
uses preferred pronouns.
This is the guy who says we hang with Satan.
So this is Target and this is, there's the entrance.
Here's the satanic product.
There's the entrance.
This is the Satanist product that they said that they took down. They lied targets lying target has lied
This is all a lie. Yeah, of course the the sam smith the sam smith album also
the satanist
Album and then you have the uh, tell me they're not grooming
my queer year
Look at this. It's a diary
For little kids. Here's a diary for. It's a diary for little kids.
Here's a diary for little, this is a diary for little kids.
Passion.
Passion.
Passion is an intense desire deep down in your soul.
It can be for anything, any feeling and fulfillment
when you're doing an activity that you enjoy.
Oh, okay.
What is your ultimate guilty pleasure?
What if you didn't have to feel guilt around it?
Hold up. Wait a minute. Sam ain't right.
Hmm. Yeah, definitely. Definitely no agenda there. No agenda here. Here we go. Again,
that's the kids section. This is right next to the kids section. The hard stopper. It's
a coloring book that's effectively just people like adults. It's a children's coloring book of adults and
young people making out. There's this is it. See it? Fight the system. See that?
Because cisgender people who are the enemy. It's worse than I possibly imagined.
They have of course doggy toys. So there you are, ladies and gentlemen.
The official tour.
The majority of it's baby clothes.
And that's because Target not only hasn't moved it, but it's right next to the children's
section.
Here's your tour.
It is 100% for real.
This is not people freaking out, causing a panic.
This is just, well, there you go, cartoon shirt of naked adults inside the children's
section. And in case you're wondering if this is something that is marketed to children,
well, there's the actual mannequin. So don't believe the propaganda. Don't believe the
press releases.
Watching that, I wonder how did people escape criminal penalty? You know, under this administration,
Alex, would you grab the FBI post from yesterday
under this administration, target may well have like faced some type of like severe criminal
penalty and the people behind that may have had to answer in court to the DOJ.
Praise God.
Because millions of millions of Christians, here's the FBI post from yesterday.
Wild. The FBI, this coming from the official FBI account
with I don't know, millions of followers.
I'd have to assume, right?
It's like 3.8 million followers.
Okay.
The FBI has as many followers on access as we do.
Hey, you know what?
That's a good fight to have.
Help the FBI protect children.
As attorney general has made clear, we will protect our children and hold accountable
those who mutilate them in the guise of gender affirming care. Report tips for any hospitals,
clinics or practitioners that perform these surgical procedures on children. Look at the
difference an election makes. Could you imagine what would have happened if we hadn't won this last election?
It would have been the target video on steroids. This is our reality. Why?
Okay, so that's, okay, that's what we had
under the fake presidency of Joe Biden, which was simply a propaganda vessel, a wooden horse
for communism and Marxism in our country.
Absolute and total degeneracy pushed upon our children, pushed upon us, using our businesses, our companies using iconic American properties in order to push agenda on our children.
Fast forward to today, the FBI is saying anybody who harms a child or engages in genital mutilation
is going to be criminally penalized to the fullest extent of the law. How do we get from here to there?
most extended law. How do we get from here to there? Well, glory to God. Praise God. Millions and millions of Christians, mothers, Christian mothers, fathers, believers got
together and said enough. We decided that we weren't going to take it anymore. And when
anybody tells you, you have no cultural power, I want to just remind you of this moment.
That all of us in our own way,
I wasn't gonna wear the tuck swimsuit,
Alex Stein wore the tuck swimsuit.
Alex Stein got into the swimsuit and like pranced around
and kept asking people at Target,
whether he looked, whether it tucked enough.
We don't need the audio on this,
but you feel free to play it.
We all decided in our own way,
this is Alex Stein's way,
my way was, you know,
I'm just gonna show you what they're doing.
We decided that this was going to be a target,
for lack of a better term,
that we were going to go after,
that we had had enough,
that this wasn't going to stand not in our nation not now Christian nation and that we were going to attack now physically like
the left does we were going to use the pressure systems that exist in free market capitalism and
shame because shame still does exist in this society and we're going to destroy Target.
Now Alex Stein wore the Tuck swimsuit.
Other friends of us, Forgiato Blow, he's a rapper who lives not too far from us, wrote
a song that was the number one billboard chart topping hit.
It went triple platinum.
Please like take a moment and understand how united we were on these issues, how important
it was that we stood a line together and said, no effing more.
You're not you.
You have crossed the line.
Here is us with 4G Otto, just a short clip,
detailing how and why he wrote the song
and then he drives his Trump MAGA truck
straight into Target, watch.
["Touchin' All Shoppers"]
There's a cleanup on every aisle.
Target is targeting your kids.
We got a Trump truck on a Trump truck.
I want everyone to see it, watching.
It's real love.
I just love Ford Giotto's content.
Like it's real, it's real love.
Boycott Target, the number one song in America.
No way conservatives could actually top the rap chart.
You've never heard of Forge Auto Blow.
On this episode of the Benny Show,
we are gonna show you how conservatives are fighting back
on Boycott in Time.
Forge Auto Blow is a Florida based MAGA rapper.
He's also the number one artist in America right now.
His song Boycott Target is the top of the charts, Florida based MAGA rapper. He's also the number one artist in America right now.
His song, Boycott Target is the top of the charts,
number one song in all categories.
He's beating Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs,
and Taylor Swift in the charts right now.
Just feels like it's more than music now at this point.
Forge Auto Blow is going to celebrate today
by taking us to Target.
How are we gonna get there?
The Magimobile.
Let's take a tour.
Hey, what's up, man?
It's Ford Giotto Blow, the mayor of Magaville.
And welcome to Trump Truck 47,
your future president, Donald J. Trump.
So look right here, we got United,
we stand with Biden, we fall.
I think we all know that.
This is a part that was on my last truck.
Come here to the back.
United, we stand with Biden, we fall. But I love this so much, I was on my last truck. Come here to the back. United we stand, with Biden we fall.
But I loved this so much, I kept it on this truck.
47, got the details, you got Trump all in here.
Boom, we got the White House on here.
We got that Florida Everglades Trump here coming with the guns.
Lady Liberty.
This is my favorite part of my new truck though, R.I.P. Ashley Babbitt.
I feel like, you know, a lot of people aren't saying her name.
One thing about me, I'm always putting off for Ashley Babbitt.
This is cool, you know, Trump in here doing the Trump dance.
The backs of my trucks are always very iconic.
This right here is history.
You know, the big one, two, having a little spat,
having a little argument, standing with Trump,
and we're not ready to give him up yet.
Great governor. I don't think he's ready to be president yet.
We got the iconic Trump doll here, Trump's nephew.
We got a Trump truck on a Trump truck.
You ever seen that, people?
We put a truck on a truck. Going got a Trump truck on a Trump truck. You ever seen that people?
We put a truck on a truck.
Going over a little Joe Biden's Corvette.
Got the fake news right there.
Come on, man.
This is what I feel, we got the bear on here.
Trump's gotta come with this aggression.
And then Crocodile Dundee Trump, like I said,
this is that Florida boy truck that Everglades.
See the tattoos on Trump, got Milani on him right there.
My producer's telling me we got guests
and so we gotta keep moving on the show.
I like sitting back watching it being like,
wow, I'm so proud of our movement.
I'm so proud of what we've accomplished.
Look at the creative energy.
Have you ever seen the left put this kind
of creative energy in anything?
Look at the grass, okay, yeah, probably from like,
right from like some type of like greedy,
greasy Hollywood corporate,
pablum like executive, sweet level,
like Soros level, like straight from on down,
like reading from the teleprompter Beyonce stuff, right?
No, this is like grassroots love.
And it was just, it was just regular Americans joining in this,
an actual movement, unlike the left, which is completely astroturf. This was an actual movement
and they were targeting our kids. And we did assist in this and praise be to God. Now,
yesterday I went to the same target, the exact same location, the same target.
It's June 3rd.
So you'd think that everything would be rip roaring, right?
Bunch of dildos in the children's section, I'm sure.
You know, like there's a, like what you'd expect, right?
Turn the whole thing into some type of like sick,
groomer perversion.
That's what I saw like not too long ago, same month, same target, but you would
be shocked at how much a and here's a, here's a good, here's the shot right there. Number
one billboard, number one billboard boycott target beating Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen
and Luke Combs. Look at that. Allow me a quick personal anecdote here. As a parent,
I'm often one-handed. You're holding your kids or you're holding a stroller or a baby seat in one
hand and you have your phone in the other and you're swiping and you're potentially shopping.
It makes the shop pay button when you're swiping very very useful you ever notice that purple shop pay button
how easy it is to buy something online even if you're one-handed you just click on it and boom
it's done but you didn't know that that purple button is the telltale sign that the store's
powered by Shopify. Shopify doesn't just make it easy to buy something it makes it incredibly easy
to start a business no matter your experience There's a reason that purple shop pay button is so loved because you can get what you're
looking for. Even if you're one handed, even if you're using your left hand, I'm right-handed.
This is just the way it works. And it makes it so easy. Shopify is the shop that powers
our store here at the Benny show.
They've been able to build out entire ecosystems for new products for us,
help us market them, help us bring them to market and more importantly,
help make them very, very easy to buy.
This is why we use Shopify because Shopify makes it incredibly easy
to start and run your business.
If you want to see less carts being abandoned, it's time to head over to Shopify.

Man, I think for beating Taylor Swift a couple of times on there. There you go.
This is the power of our movement. And it's good to just like take a step back and like bask in the victories because this all, all of it added up. And there's only so much these
corporations can take. And those corporations ultimately are nothing without the paying customer.
And so the paying customer said no, wrote songs that were the top of the charts, trolled
them online.
I mean, these videos that we did, ALX, how many views did they do?
They did hundreds of millions of views.
The videos we did did hundreds of millions of views, you know, tens of thousands of comments.
So I'm just like, we're just like proud to be part of this movement with you, right? We're fighting alongside you. And now check out what happened. Same target, same place, same location. I went
yesterday and you wouldn't believe it if I told you. So luckily I had my camera with me and I'll film it for you,
but they replaced the satanic
groomer display that was like a quarter of the store.
They replaced that with a Maga display.
Oh, you think I'm lying to you?
No way we could.
No way we could have won this hard. Get ready. Here we go.
Guys, it's June 2nd, a couple of days into pride month.
We are here at our local Target in Tampa, Florida,
where we went thermonuclear viral last year by exposing the
Satanic groomer display targeted at children in this location.
There was a major backlash at the time
and Target ended up actually removing a lot of these items
from their floor in a humiliation for the entire brand.
But we're back to check and see what kind of a display
they have this year since so much has changed culturally.
Will they still be on the groomer, satanic, gender bending, trans timeline?
First target going change.
We've heard some interesting reports.
Let's go find out.
We have fireworks.
That's a good start.
And then what is this?
Right at the front of the store is a Hostel Classics American Summer display featuring
this family. Impressive. Very nice. This is remarkable. I can't believe it's real. This
was where the degenerate groomer display was last year and now it's been replaced by a father and a son wearing patriotic ensemble.
This is crazy. Red, white, blue, star spangled banner. Gone are the satanic items and in
are the American flag vintage threads. And now we're just kind of walking around seeing
maybe can we find something. Well, we might have some Lizzo body positivity here. You ever see anything like it?
I just can't believe it. Again all of this was the pride groomer display and
now it's been replaced with a MAGA display. So I don't know if Joanna Gaines
went and made a couple phone calls or what? There's no groomer display at this target. Maybe it's just
mine. But I'm seeing reports of this all across the internet that they have eliminated the satanic
groomer displays and changed them to Maga displays. What a difference a cultural moment make this is
neck snapping. This is what they've replaced it with.
Reporting from a much better target,
ladies and gentlemen, we win.
You are powerful, never forget that.
And we can defeat evil.
Oh, and by the way, did you know that Disney
fired thousands and thousands yesterday?
Yeah.
The entire team that brought you woke Snow White was complete was, was now we're now
in a bread line.
They're now in bread lines.
Oh yeah, baby.
Oh man.
And they can't even get jobs at Target anymore.
Maybe they're there now.
Now all everyone who worked at Disney is now getting a job at Target and Target
ain't even hiring these gooners.
What a victory.
Thank you for making all of this possible.
Us together, right?
That this is something the left doesn't have.
Authentic, real grassroots movements, real audiences.
So shout out to the chat.
You. Love you.
This is a massive victory for us.
I couldn't find, I couldn't find anything.
I couldn't find anything replaced entirely yesterday and go to your local target.
That video is up on my social media.
X would be what I'd prefer, but go and find that video.
There it is right there.
Go to my X, go to, but go and find that video. There it is right there.
Go to my X, go to your local target and film it yourself.
If you'd like, post a video, show me.
But you know, Target's corporate.
So this stuff comes down from the top.
And from the top, they said, it's not worth it.
Their boycott was so successful,
they made it untenable for us. We're not gonna do it.
We're done. And we win. Ah, feels good to win. Man, it feels good to win. Go, go check in for
yourself. Go find, go do that and post a video. I'll retweet it. Go post your own video and show how much we have won culturally.
This is all because of us right there, right here in this country.
Yes, this is all because of us.
And we just want to say thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, we were inside of Target.
We were filming with our Patriot mobile device.
We were very proud to not even be using woke cellular service inside of that target.
Oh yeah, we are living clean around here.
Patriot Mobile is the network that allows us to go
and do those kinds of films.
Actually it's very, you know,
like it's actually very important
because you're filming like minutes on end.
You end up, you end up sending it,
you get filming like about 10 minutes of content.
Our excellent editor, his name's Nick,
he crunched it down to about two minutes of content.
Anyway, the point is that you have to send those big files.
You have to make sure you're filming it.
You have to make sure you're sharp.
Patriot Mobile is the company that keeps us locked in
and loaded on the road.
And we do have some country music announcement for you.
And we'll tell you that in just a second.
Go to patriotmobile.com slash Benny.
Call 972 Patriot right now and use a promo code,
Benny, for a free month of service when you sign up.
The reason why you should do that is that I'm going to be
using my Pay-Per-It mobile device tonight
when we go to Nashville.
We're going to Nashville tonight
for the opening of Kids Rocks Bar.
Yeah, this would be the time for the cheers.
Yeah, we're going to Kid Rocks Bar tonight
and we're going to go there for the opening
of Bob's Bar tonight in Nashville. We'll be
filming all of this. We'll bring that to you. We're going to be filming there in Nashville.
We're going to put it all up on the channel. We're going to put it all up on social. We're
going to bring you along with us. I don't know. I don't exactly know why, but we got an invitation
to this and probably, well, I actually do know why. We got an invitation to this and problem. Well, I actually do know why we got an invitation to this because of you, because this crap, this audience, this stream,
this chat, and they want, they, they see the power of what we're doing. So blends into the
whole target conversation. So they see the power of that and they want to be part of it.
And so it's our obligation. We already have people on the ground in Nashville. It's our obligation
to bring that along with you. Those it's an amazing story. Kid Rock got canceled in Detroit. He's from Detroit. His bar got canceled in Detroit.
And so he said, screw these people during COVID, just like many of these places. So Kid Rock said, you know what?
F off. We're moving down to a red state. We're moving down to the great state of Tennessee, shout out Tennessee. And I'm gonna be opening up a restaurant there.
So he's calling it Detroit Cowboy as a, you know,
thumb in the eye, right?
Stay salty.
So anyway, we'll be doing that tonight
and we'll bring our Patriot Mobile device with us,
patriotmobile.com slash Benny, call 972 Patriot.
Let's freaking go.
Okay.
All right, ladies and gentlemen,
so victory, victory, victory, and more victories.
It's exciting to see,
and now we see something remarkable from the White House.
Now, Donald Trump,
Donald Trump said that Joe Biden's a robot and a clone,
and that Joe Biden doesn't exist anymore.
Now, while I don't have exactly
like some type of secret document to share with you on this,
this is a post that President Trump put up this weekend in a repost of a photo of him on truth
social. What I do have is some very troubling bits of information about there being two Joe
Biden's. And what do we mean by that? We mean that there's been two Joe Biden's
sort of like lingering around the White House.
Maybe there've been four, maybe there's been seven.
Who knows?
My favorite was the seven foot tall Biden
that they marched out in front of the Rose Garden
that one time, really hilarious timeline there.
The point is that Donald Trump,
just put up this post this weekend
and the caption is really something else.
Caption says, there is no Joe Biden,
that Joe Biden is either a robot or a clone.
Two Biden.
Now we have visual proof that there are two Bidens.
We have the proof that there are in fact two Bidens.
There's a clip that's great.
You have it, okay.
It's a clip that's a clip. That's great. You have it. Okay. So clip. That's great.
That really shows the difference here between like what they were trying to try out as a Biden, as a quote, the Joe Biden. Here's a, here's two very different Joe Biden. Not only do they,
I mean, let's play without the sound for just a sec. There's not only do is there like different
hairlines, different skin powers, different eyes, different ears, different lighting,
even though he's in the same spot,
even though he's in like the same location
wearing the same suit,
but also his voice is like entirely different.
Here we go.
You could never forget that.
How'd we get the price down?
Well, the new report today shows that
folks as we fight inflation. You can't be pro insurrection. Just a moment, ladies and gentlemen, there's
a slight technical difficulty, slight technical difficulty for Klein. Klein, don't worry.
I got it. Let's uh, yeah, yeah, that's fine. That's fine. Killer Klein is going to have
to refresh here for a second. Slight technical difficulty. It is what happens on a live show.
But ladies and gentlemen, we continue.
So as Killer Klein refreshes,
we're gonna move on to Ed Martin.
Ed Martin was on our program
and was announcing that they're going to be doing
a full investigation into the Joe Biden AutoPen scandal.
Now, whatever you think about the number of Bidens
there might or might not be, or how robotic Joe Biden is,
there's definitely no way
that Joe Biden signed 8,000 pardons.
And there's no way that he competently signed
all of those pardons, as Ed Martin described
and discussed on our program.
Here we go.
Fake news that you made a ton of news with earlier
in the week talking about this fake world that we live in, whether it's Pipe Bomber or the nooses
or maybe Joe Biden's Auto Pen. Is it legal for a president to do such heavy lifts in Article 2
with a computer and with his staff when when the president is even in, he's
not even in the country, right?
When half these pardons are signed.
Is this legal?
Well you know, Benny, just to say, President Trump is really, I admire him, but he's also
very kind because the pardon attorney, which is what I am also, I'm serving as the United
States pardon attorney, is a really unique spot, you know,
and you go back in history,
even way back in the Federalist Papers,
I think it was number 74, it turns out,
I think it was Hamilton was writing about the power
of the pardon is something that, you know,
can restore tranquility to the Commonwealth
is the phrase that he used.
It's a really unique thing.
President Trump has done it well.
He's been very careful.
Alice Johnson is the pardon czar, actually.
She's in the White House,
and she's someone who has a great story.
It's a kindness, right?
It's real, it's important, and it's in the Constitution.
But I will say, and I've said it over and over,
when something as a prosecutor,
when something is so unprecedented,
it's a reason to take a look.
It may not be probable cause to arrest people yet.
It may not even be probable cause to
subpoena things or to do sort of seizures. But when you see something that's outrageous and
unprecedented, it's a reasonable look. It's outrageous and unprecedented for Joe Biden to
do these pardons for over a decade, blanket pardons, not blanket pardons as to when you did this,
you're pardoned on everything related to it, which is normal.
It's anything you thought of or did
back for years and years and years.
By the way, you know, Comey,
you know, Comey has, I think Comey got a pardon.
I forget, forgive me if I forget,
but if he got a pardon,
what he did today is not covered by the pardon.
You know, what he did yesterday is not covered,
just to be clear.
So, but what I'm saying is this,
when you see something so unprecedented,
it looks like everybody who is touching a major scandal
that may or may not have had corruption involved,
COVID, Ukraine, they all got pardons.
Hunter Biden got pardons, he touched China, all this.
You say, wait a second, is there something going on here?
And then you say the auto pen,
where now, you know, Jake Tapper is saying
that Biden was so gone that they were clearly not paying,
he wasn't running things.
You start to get to a point where you say,
was somebody manipulating things, right?
You know, we know these people like Anita Dunn
and Ron Klain, and those people were dominant figures
in Biden world.
Were they the ones doing the pardons?
And if they were, then we've got a question
that we have to, about the validity.
So we're gonna get into this.
I value pardons so much and I value our constitution.
We wanna be respectful of the history,
but we also wanna make sure the conduct now was appropriate
and the combination of the auto pen
and the unprecedented nature
and people like Jake Tapper now describing so clearly
a diminished human being,
there's some questions that have to be taken up
and we're gonna do it.
So you heard that interview on our program and thank you for sticking with us.
I've never seen anything like it.
There was a, there was a horrible glitch on our, uh, the, on our programming computer
and we had to do a full reboot.
So we, we appreciate you guys sticking with us.
It's just how it is.
How do we, we're live, we're live.
We let her, unlike some other shows, we actually let it rip.
We don't do prerecords and fake that we're live and run it as alive.
That does happen quite a bit. We're literally live.
So when Tim Burchett comes on or when Darrell Issa comes on, uh,
these guys spit fire and, um, you know, you know, you're getting the real thing.
Right. There's no sanitization here. There's no editing.
It's just like real life. This is the way that it is.
Well, here's some real life for Joe Biden's crew. Trump Justice Department has now officially
launched criminal investigation, examining pardons issued by Biden. You heard that live on our show,
and now you're hearing this live on our show. Probe will question Biden's competency and use
of the auto pen. Presidents have authority to issue pardons,
but they have no authority to have a machine run by somebody else without their knowledge issue
the pardons. Why don't you bring in Joe Biden and just list, like just pick a couple names out of a
hat, have 8,000 names in a hat, pick a name out of the hat and then say, hey, Joe Biden, do you know
who this person is? You gave them a pardon for murder.
Do you know this person is Bill Smith?
Try it.
A senior official in the Republican U S president, Donald Trump's justice department told staff on Monday that he has been directed to investigate
clemency granted by Joe Biden in the waning days of the presidency, members of
the family and death row inmates.
Ed Martin, justice department's pardon, wrote an email seen by Reuters
that the investigation involves whether Biden was competent
and whether others were taking advantage of him
through the auto pen and other means.
The auto pen is a device used to automatically
affix the signature of a document.
Trump and his supporters have made a variety
of unfounded claims that Biden used as advice
while president invalidated his actions
or suggested that it was not fully aware of these actions.
Oh yes, you're right.
Take the stance that Joe Biden wasn't fully aware of things.
In an email, the email stated that Martin's investigation
focused on preemptive pardons Biden issued
several members of the family,
clemency to spare 37 federal inmates
from death row penalties, sentences, prior life in prison.
This is big money. This is big money. There's constant scandals of people paying for pardons.
This is massive corruption. We've had members of Congress on this program. We had Ed Martin
on this program. Ed Martin told you the truth. He told you what he was about to do live on
this show. And now ladies and gentlemen, let's go live to Jill Biden at the very last Joe
Biden cabinet meeting.
What a crazy time to be alive.
This is the kind of stuff that you watch and it like gives you PTSD.
This is Joe Biden running Biden's last cabinet meeting.
I want you to take a look at Joe Biden, take a look at the way that he behaves, how he's
acting and ask yourself this, does Joe Biden have the ability to find his way out of a closet?
We heard that this weekend from whistleblower, secret service whistleblower
tells Josh Holly that Joe Biden would get lost in the closet.
Okay.
Just in time for pride month.
So here we go.
Here's your Biden's file cabinet meeting.
You tell me, does this guy, did this guy sign 8,000 pardons go
grateful and Jill is here today.
Heard that clapping.
It wasn't for me.
We come in
and here across previous administration.
First ladies have attended these meetings
for specific reasons.
This is the first time Jill has joined us and
there goes the show.
How important issue is what she's about to speak
to the both of us today at the top of our our meeting Jill's going to give an update on the house initiative White
House initiative to fundamentally change the approach and fund how we approach
and fund women's health services so I'd like to turn over to Jill and for any
comment she has. So you're his kid. You know, sometimes the White House...
He doesn't even look, again, he doesn't even look,
he doesn't even look like Biden.
We had like a whole, look at, look at that.
Look at that.
Ugh, it's elder abuse.
Who's in charge? Who's in charge here?
If Joe Biden's getting lost in the closet, and here's the,
here's, this was big national news all weekend.
Joe Biden lost, gets lost in the closet.
From Yahoo News.
Here we go.
Confused Joe Biden would continually get lost in the closet
according to his personal secret service.
Jill knew.
Jill knew.
This is why we keep asking like,
well, you know, maybe it's time to like focus up
on Jill Biden, right?
So we've asked on this program, Ron Johnson,
who's in charge of the investigation in the Senate.
Ron Johnson said, yes, we are focusing on Joe Biden.
We need to bring these people in,
one at a time, individually transcribed interviews,
compare what they tell us to what other people tell us.
This isn't gonna be swift.
This is no time for a swift show trial type of hearing.
You bring people before us without having the documentation
to back up the investigations and the interviews.
Are you going to bring in Joe Biden?
I can't say that right now.
Right now we're going to focus on elected
and appointed officials and find out what they know.
And then we'll see where the investigation leads us. Would you consider bringing in Jill Biden?
Yeah, listen, if I have to subpoena people,
I'll subpoena them and based on what we find out,
we'll request additional interviews
and subpoena people that we think we need to talk to.
Again, I intend to-
James Comer has said he's gonna go after Jill Biden
and Carolyn Levitt has said we should go after Jill Biden
from the White House Press dais. One final thing, President Trump has said he's gonna go after Jill Biden. And Carolyn Levitt has said we should go after Jill Biden from the White House Press dais.
One final thing, President Trump has said
we should really get to talking to Jill Biden.
Nobody's gonna know better than Jill,
whether Joe Biden is in fact a robot or a clone.
Could you imagine having to live with multiple Joe Bidens?
Goodness gracious.
Or what happened with Jill Biden?
Here's Trump.
Do you think that Dr. Jill Biden should also have to come in and
testify about what she did or didn't do?
Well, I hate the concept of it. It's the wife of a man who was
going through a lot of problems and everybody that dealt with
him understood that and I guess it came out during the debate
loud and clear that was the biggest signal
of all.
They have to do what's right.
The country was, there was a lot of dishonesty in the election, as you know, 2020.
That's been now caught.
People understand it was a rigged election.
And when you go further out, when you see the auto pen, I mean, I think the auto pen
is going to become one of the great scandals of all time because you have somebody operating And when you go further out, when you see the auto pen, I mean, I think the auto pen is gonna become
one of the great scandals of all time,
because you have somebody operating it
or a number of people operating,
because I knew Joe Biden.
Joe Biden wasn't in favor of opening up borders,
letting 21 million people into this,
from prisons and mental institutions and gang members.
He wasn't into that at all.
And you know, who signed the who signed these orders,
proclamations and all of the different things that he signed that set our country so far back that
was there was so bad for our country with the gentlemen, somebody who is a bulldog of an
investigator, somebody who we love having on the program, who's been a real fighter, and who we love having on the program who's been a real fighter and who we love having back in the arena
the great congressman of
California
Boy, we'll talk a little bit about that
Darrell Issa joined the program live now
Congressman thank you for being back on the show.
There's a lot of stuff to talk about today.
Let's start with the auto pen.
You're on the Judiciary Committee.
What's going on here?
Well, it's a serious question.
You know, there's some things you don't need,
you don't have to worry about.
For example, all those many pieces of legislation
that Joe Biden signed,
turns out the constitution doesn't require
the president to sign them.
So it would be the same as if he just,
many presidents decide they don't like a bill
so they don't sign it, but they let it become law.
Not so with pardons.
Pardons are affirmative action.
And even more importantly, this parole question,
you mentioned the 21 million people that came into the country during Biden,
well, many of them were given work permits and a right to do things.
That's an affirmative action, and the statute says it has to be individual.
So not only you're not allowed to do a group, you have to do one by one.
Clearly, he didn't do that.
So when we get to the bottom of it,
I think what we're gonna find is
that Joe Biden committed a crime
for which he is immune as the president,
but those who aided and abetted him are not immune.
So that's very interesting that you brought up
the paroling of millions of Americans
illegally into our country.
So this is something that we've often asked,
like there's no way that that was legal, right?
Well, even if it were legal, even if he said,
yep, I did them one by one,
he still would have had to sign them.
So all of these things, some of them can be undone.
But for example,
terrible multiple murderers who got clemenci
by a staff person and is
going to have a major Don
put those people back on
they need to be. Uh, you
of clemency, the right of
guarantee from our founding fathers
and I'll respect it.
We are all feeling it.
The rising costs are eating away at everything.
Gas, groceries, home repairs.
If you're a homeowner, you've probably thought,
should I call American financing to refinance
and pay off credit card debt?
Then you second-guess yourself
because of that low mortgage rate that you currently have.
Listen, that low rate is not saving you if you're drowning in credit card debt.
Credit card debt is 25% or more.
It's criminal as far as I'm concerned.
And that's math that nobody wants to face.
That debt is costing you thousands.
And here's the truth.
If you're only making minimum payments,
the debt will follow you for years.
That's why people are calling American financing
because they're saving customers an average
of $800 per month by using their equity
to finally break free from credit card debt.
You owe it to your family to see what's possible.
No upfront fees, no pressure.
It costs you nothing to find out how much you can save.
If you start today,
you'll be able to delay two mortgage payments. Call American Financing today at 888-528-1219.
That's 888-528-1219. Americanfinancing.net.
But I won't respect some staffer simply hitting a button and saying, I'm deciding who lives and
dies. Uh-uh, that's not what the constitution intended.
And by the way, Thomas Jefferson had,
he didn't call it an auto pen, but he had a duplicator.
He would write and another arm on that same pen
created a duplicate copy.
So auto pens not new.
The difference is when Thomas Jefferson was writing,
he simply got two copies instead of one.
Yeah, that's right.
I'm sure that most congressional offices have auto pens.
We were in Tim Burch's office just the other day
and he had an auto pen
because he sends out constituent letters, right?
And things like that.
And you know, someone graduates in his district
and you get a little letter.
And then this is the way that it works.
Is this the Thomas Jefferson one?
This is very interesting.
Since you talked about it,
we have a photo of the right here.
I'm not sure if we have one of these congressmen. Yeah, I do not have a Thomas Jefferson
duplicator, but I will tell you that we've worked with Indisha before during Benghazi. We had a
document that looked like it had Hillary Clinton's signature on it. Later they said it was an indicia. The only problem was it was an empowerment document
that did it under her authority,
but some staffer signed it
by running an auto pen of some sort.
And of course, what that really means is
they didn't do the right thing,
people died at Benghazi,
and oh, by the way,
you can't even
find out what staffer did it. This is a problem. It's not a problem in thank you letters. It's not
a problem in congratulations on graduating from, you know, Boy Scout Academy, whatever it happens
to be. It is a problem on legal documents, particularly things like pardons. Absolutely.
particularly things like pardons.
Absolutely, a pardon is only valid if it truly is authorized by the authority
and it's not delegatable.
The president doesn't have the authority
to delegate to anybody the ability to pardon or grant clemency.
So what's the next step in this investigation?
I know that James Comer has made quite a bit of news
on this as well.
Do you think that there's going to be a angling
on Jill Biden and what her culpability is in any of this?
Well, for my more than a decade of doing investigations,
I will tell you one thing, do it carefully,
do it with some level of patience
and do it with some humility. We're not
looking just for scapegoats. We're looking for an important constitutional question. Make sure you
get it right because it really is about not was Joe Biden feeble minded, not even can you undo
the 21 million people he let in. But the
25th Amendment that probab
wasn't used. There is a c
which will have to be und
authorized by a competent
signed by some staff pers
people that are held crim
But I think the most imp get to the truth and then ask a question. Do we have to go back
into the 25th Amendment and kind of create a 28th Amendment, which would give some outside
group the ability to challenge your president's competency? Right now, it's limited to the
vice president and the cabinet, and that clearly didn't work because they knew Biden wasn't capable,
wasn't not only wasn't with it, but wasn't even with it enough to sign his
own name. And yet they continue to hide that so they could be essentially
pseudo presidents. And that hasn't happened since Woodrow Wilson.
Congressman, again, you have one of the best investigative pedigrees in all of Congress.
Do you have any instinct here that perhaps there might have been overt criminality? I
have right here a list. There's 4,245 acts of clemency during Joe Biden's tenure in the White House. Over 8,000 pardons. We've seen
cases where people pay for their pardons. This happens constantly in third world dictatorships.
This happens in corrupt states and with corrupt governors throughout the country. This is something
that is normative. It has happened before. Do you have any instinct that perhaps there was some payola going on here?
I don't think there'll be any doubt that if you were to go back through those pardons and clemency,
you would see campaign contributions and other activities by the people who requested them.
Now the question is, was there any money that went more closely to the Biden family or to people who had the ability to run the auto pen, so to speak. But again, this is a this is a huge problem. It's going to take a while to get through it. And when we're done, we have the two problems holding some people accountable. That's important. But most importantly, figuring out how to prevent this from happening
again. And as I alluded to, I believe that we are seriously going to have to consider
whether the competence of a president be more than just a question for the vice president
and the cabinet, who have every reason to keep the president there. Just as Mrs. Wilson had the same desire to keep her husband in power after
he had a stroke that really left him incapacitated.
These questions are questions that I hope you'll stay on top of.
I'm certainly going to, because we can never again have the theory that there's a man or
woman with their finger on the nuclear button when
in fact some staff member has their finger on the nuclear button.
Remember that an auto pen isn't the only thing that the president has exclusive right to
and one of them is he's the commander in chief and if the Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin
and others were part of this cover-up they
were doing so that they could act as though they were the commander-in-chief
rather than the president who was elected for that. Yes that's exactly
correct. We've heard some names from various members of Congress. Elizabeth
Warren has come up. David Sachs is the A.I. czar for President Trump and he says
Elizabeth Warren was using that auto pen and burning it down to the ground,
she was using it so much.
Have you heard anything like that
from members of Congress taking advantage of this?
You know, we've heard the indication of that quid pro quo
where people were pushing through vast amounts of pardons
for their friends and contributors.
Now, again, one of the challenges
from a criminality standpoint is these people who asked for the pardon
likely didn't cross a criminal line,
but working together with people that they knew
would get the pardon when Biden wasn't able to,
somebody's gotta be held accountable.
And if there isn't a law to do it now, there needs to be one. Because the American people
want to know why did so many criminals get a clean bill of health? Was it simply because
they or their families gave money? You might remember during Bill Clinton, he famously had
very large, like million dollar contributions to his library that seemed to exactly
go inside with partners.
Yeah. I mean, maybe you can expand the investigation
into the clientele.
Oh, we'd love to sing the oldies.
We'd love to sing the oldies, Congressman.
Well, you know, you got to remember that when somebody
no longer matters going forward,
probably what you need to do is to look at the ones who still matter, who tomorrow or
the next day could be back in power.
You know, there are people that surrounded the president who fully have the ambition
to run for higher office. And one of them is my own attorney general,
Senator and Vice President, Kamala Harris.
You know, she's still very much,
I think she's gonna run for governor.
And she was the person who should have brought
the 25th Amendment into play and didn't.
She undoubtedly has people who supported her,
who very much she lobbied for them to become president,
so I mean to become pardoned.
So you want to look for the first person that needs to be looked at, it's the former vice
president.
Yeah, you're exactly you know what, thank you for that correction, Congressman, because
you are the you are the deeply astute political mind.
But you're right, like the by the Bidenens and the Clintons, they're just even even Obama.
I think technically they're like gasping for relevancy in life.
There's now a big movement to push Obama, really, like the Obama
apparatchiks out of the party and to make way, you know, to
bulldoze for a new generation.
And Kamala is clearly, you know, psychotically vying for that
for to to to run the party, right, to like to drive the thing.
And so she's still got juice in the tank.
And a lot of these other people, you know, they're they're just dust in the dustbin.
And so what a great question.
What's going to happen with Kamala?
Is she going to be brought in? You're exactly right.
It's it's it's really, you know, Joe Biden has a totally different,
you know, marital reason to keep this all going. It's Kamala Harris that has a constitutional
duty to stop it. Joe Biden has no constitutional duty to stop it. Kamala does. You're so correct.
She has a future and she's a darling of the party in many ways, enough that they anointed her when Biden finally stepped aside.
And I know there's been this talk about,
should they have done it differently?
I think at the end of the day,
she knows that she's still relevant,
relevant to run for governor,
relevant to potentially run for president.
And as an attorney, as a former prosecutor,
as an attorney, as a former prosecutor, as an attorney general, there's no question that she knew that her actions that may or may not have happened behind closed doors to get pardons for people to run that auto pen, so to speak, made her a direct enabler. So yes, she should be required to ask and to be asked an answer. What did you know?
And when did you know it? What did you do? And why did you do it?
Is she going to be called in? Well, I mean, you're on you're on multiple extremely powerful
committees here. Obviously, you're Darrell Issa, you're a legend in the house. Will you be
advocating for Kamala Harris to be subpoenaed under oath?
I believe she should be one of the most important people
to be interviewed.
She was the last person in the room time and time again
when decisions were made and things were done.
And I don't think she can run from that.
And at the end of the day, she should be forced
to answer the questions under oath. She was
the responsible party. Remember, after Joe Biden, she was the highest constitutional
officer in the land, the only other person that was elected by the entire United States
of America on that ticket with Joe Biden. And, you know, when the president's there,
most of the time,
the vice president is simply a senator who sits there
and breaks ties in the Senate.
But that's not true when the president is incapacitated
and the vice president effectively can take control.
I believe that happened.
I believe it happened a lot.
And I think she should be held accountable
to at least be asked and answer those questions.
You believe that Kamala Harris was taking control a lot.
Just want to clarify.
I believe she was.
Look, we've all been with people
who have diminished capacity, wonderful friends and family
that get up in years.
And how do you control them?
You control them by being the person talking in their ear.
And you see that, you know, I don't wanna do that.
No, no, go ahead and eat your oatmeal.
Yeah, come on, hon, eat your oatmeal.
You know, that's Joe Biden.
Joe Biden had to be somebody who,
no matter what he might've thought years earlier,
today, the
person who has a half an hour, an hour of his time, undoubtedly can get Joe
Biden to do just about anything.
And that's where the people who spent that half an hour, Joe Biden, uh, obviously
has, it was one of those people, but clearly vice president Harris was one of them too.
My producer is wondering if you wouldn't mind
if we played a 10 second clip here of Kamala Harris,
one of our favorite answers she ever gave
whilst vice president was when she was asked directly
on CBS about Joe Biden's health.
And this is of course, before any massive scandal,
Joe Biden was still running for president at the time.
And here's Kamala Harris's full-throated defense
of Joe Biden, let's go.
Welcome to some Democratic donors.
And they have told us that should something befall
President Biden and he is not able to run,
that there would be a free for all
for who would run as president.
Because Joe Biden is very much alive
and running for reelection.
Joe Biden's very much alive, Congressman.
What a defense, what a defense.
Joe Biden is alive.
Alive, now, you know, Betty, isn't that sort of like,
we've checked and there's a heartbeat.
Yep, yeah, you know, there may be,
there's an indication of a heartbeat
and maybe brain function, but we're not sure.
But that's a lot.
Isn't what you'd say in a hostage situation?
Wouldn't you say that in a hostage situation?
The hostages are alive, all right?
Now it's unbelievable, like that answer.
We just, I mean, we couldn't believe it
when they broadcast that.
What a thing to say about someone.
What does this tell you, Congressman?
Well, not having taken a lot of psychiatry or psychology
and in college, I'm not allowed to use things like Freudian slip.
But in the generic sense, I think it is I think is a Freudian
slip. I think it's something where in her mind, she knows, Oh,
I can't say that he's cognitively competent. I can't say that he's smart and on his game.
Although at other times people did say that.
So why don't I take the one honest statement I can say,
which is he's got a heartbeat.
He's very much alive.
You can see it.
I mean, she's just not really a good liar, frankly.
Okay, so somebody was a good liar.
This is Kamala Harris's version of,
what difference does it make?
Like at this point, what difference does it make?
I had a question and just since we're on the topic,
I just have to because you're the Hillary Clinton expert.
You know so much about what happened with her
and with her campaign
and with some of the more criminal acts that she took.
I have this video that's always bothered me
and it makes no sense to me.
And perhaps you have some insight
that I don't have, Congressman.
I know something that all of our audience
is gonna remember and care about.
So this video of Hillary Clinton
clearly having a Biden level health episode.
Before we had Joe Biden falling ass backwards
down the Air Force One stairs, we had Hillary Clinton you know, fainting into the into a van.
And it made no sense to us here, you know, we just play the clip.
But you know, everyone's seen the clip, but it but it makes no sense to us even today
as we watch it.
She loses her shoes.
She has to be thrown into the van.
She's clearly either unconscious or some kind of horrible dilapidating health episode.
Do you have any insight into like
into what the Hillary Clinton's campaign said she had a cough like at the time and that's why this
was happening. Do you know of anything more nefarious that was going on here? Well, you know, when you
look at, I mean, I do in one sense, when you look at the months and years since that time, you realize that in general Hillary Clinton is healthy enough to function.
But on a campaign trail when she was stressed to do significantly more than she had been doing, long and difficult days,
I believe and I've been told by others that they were juicing her, that they were getting her to keep going by giving her drugs of some sort,
call it uppers for lack of a better word.
But you know, those things only take you so far
when you're pretty low energy.
You know, Hillary Clinton has always been
kind of a low energy person.
You look at her time in the Senate,
you look at her time as first lady,
and you definitely look at her time on the campaign trail,
she wasn't very good at long days.
It's kind of the difference between a Donald J. Trump
who can work day and night, live on four hours sleep,
and he's done it for decades, and Hillary Clinton,
who typically you would see for a speech,
and then you wouldn't see her for hours,
and they'd say, well, she's in meetings. And you do a little checking and find out there
was nobody else in the room or it was just staff and she was relaxing. So did the campaign
push somebody who wasn't capable and it led to that? Absolutely. Do they want to admit
that you're low energy, easily exhausted and not up to the job of being president.
Again, people around a presidential candidate will do anything to keep that candidacy alive.
And there was no exception with Hillary Clinton, who people, she was the paycheck for these
people and their ticket to the power of the oval.
Well thank you so very much, Congressman.
We appreciate the little extra time here.
We did have a small technical glitch
at the beginning of the show.
And so thank you for being with us.
Godspeed, everybody follow the great Congressman
from California, 250,000 subscribers on Axe here
on his way to a million.
Thank you, Congressman.
Thank you. See you soon.
Ladies and gentlemen, moving right along to somebody who was a exceptional prosecutor
for the Department of Justice,
somebody who may well be brought back to try this case.
We're not sure. He has one hell of a pedigree.
His name's Brett Tolman.
He's the executive director for Right on Crime,
and he's live right now. Great to see you. All right, well, a very happy Tuesday to you. And this was the breaking news of the day
that the DOJ is investigating this auto pen scandal.
Is this gonna lead anywhere?
No one will know better than you.
Three or four decades right of like a prosecution
for the DOJ, you would know better than anyone.
What's the deal here?
Yeah, Benny, you know, I'm glad to hear this announcement, especially when, you know,
we know Congress wants to look into this, that it's going to be more theater than it is substance,
which is fine. It's the role that Congress has sort of adopted. But the reality is, I've been
saying for some time now, there are several statutes that could be implicated in an investigation, criminal statutes that govern the abuse of authority
or the abuse of power that might be done by an individual
in the White House, in the administration,
or by members of Congress that may have utilized
the auto pen for their own personal benefit
or the benefit of others.
I mean, there are dozens of statutes that may apply
depending on where the investigation goes.
So you see that this could be a fruitful investigation.
How does it work?
How would you charge this?
Well, first there's gonna be record.
Remember the auto pin is supposed to be an extension
of an acting and functioning president.
A president that says, I'm gonna be in the air.
I authorize this document to the air, I authorize this
document to be signed or I authorize this to be signed because there may be some some
inability to do it, you know, physically. However, on the issue, the president is supposed
to make the decision always make the decision that that he wants to sign whatever document the Autopen is utilized for. And traditionally,
Benny, the Autopen is not utilized for any significant or official act that the president
might take. Never in the case of clemency am I aware prior to the allegations against Joe Biden
and his White House that the Auten was utilized in something so important
as pardons and commutations or other acts,
extending and pushing money, for example,
or other benefits.
I mean, this is the kind of investigation
which we wanna see a trail of emails and documentation
that the president authorized the use.
If it is not there, then expand that investigation
to which individuals were exercising the power
of the president's pen.
It is abuse of power, it is criminal,
and they need to be prosecuted.
There's just no way you have to suspend disbelief
that a president whose own justice department
said that he is not competent enough to stand trial
that a jury would never convict this doddering old man.
Now I can't even remember his son's birthday
or that his son died, right?
It's so sad listening to the her tapes.
I mean, it's painful, frankly.
That he thought through, considered
and wisely executed 8,000 pardons or clemencies?
It's inconceivable, Brett.
I mean, surely they couldn't make that argument.
Well, they did make that argument.
And Benny, if we go back, when did it start to get used?
When did they start to assert the actual authority
of the president and his ability to execute on official documents.
I look at it this way. When Herr came out with his investigative report, and when he concluded
that this president could not be charged with what he found to be criminal acts, at that moment,
what he found to be criminal acts. At that moment, and no later, at that moment,
there should have been the invocation
of the constitutional protection that's in place,
and the president should have been removed.
At that, that was the latest moment
that it should have been done.
We knew, however, you knew, all of us were seeing it with
our own eyes, but being told and lied to by the media that it was not what we were seeing.
And yet, now we learn 8,000 pardons, other official acts, perhaps the movement of money
went as a result of using the president's authority. Like all of those things is a level of corruption
that seems very consistent with a family
that was willing to be corrupt when he was vice president
and when he just got out of office.
You know, it's interesting that you bring that up
with the 25th amendment, because obviously they threw up
a little bit of a smoke screen,
is really rather pathetic attempt to devalue the HUR report.
And it didn't work, but our last guest, rather pathetic attempt to, is to devalue the, her report.
And it didn't work, but our recent, our last guest, the great Congressman from California.
And he said, you don't understand.
People are focusing on Jill Biden.
They need to focus on Kamala
because it's Kamala Harris's constitutional duty.
Jill Biden didn't have a constitutional duty
to report on her husband.
Is she has a marital duty, right?
To sort of keep the ship sailing.
Kamala Harris has a constitutional duty
to report this out.
And she didn't.
And maybe the investigation should actually swing wildly
back towards her, right?
There should be included in the investigation, certainly.
But Benny, I look at Kamala Harris
as the ultimate follower, the ultimate pleaser.
And she, at the time time needed those around the president in order to
support her run and her bid.
I don't think she had the, the, the intestinal strength and fortitude to
actually pull that off because she's never shown herself to be a leader in that regard.
She's not been one that's willing to, you know, to buck the system, to do what is right no matter what.
We don't see those leaders anymore.
The days of Thomas Jefferson and other leaders
that were willing to go against even their own party
when they knew something was right are over.
So it's kind of interesting that you talk about this.
So the system that was set up,
the institutions that have been set up,
I wanna move kind of more to the greater architecture
of the DOJ and the FBI.
Something that's been bothering me,
and perhaps you could shed some light on this
given your extensive decades of prosecution for the DOJ.
Why is James Comey,
who's calling for the assassination of Donald
Trump, and we should take that seriously because there's a lot of people who probably are allegiance
James Comey that are allowed to carry guns around Trump. I mean, we should take that very,
very seriously, right? Why is James Comey's daughter allowed to continue prosecutions at
the DOJ in very high profile cases like Diddy right now?
in very high profile cases like Diddy right now.
Benny, it's the underlying bureaucratic state, the administrative state.
When I was US attorney,
it took me over a year to fire an employee
that was caught doing drugs at her desk.
It took me over a year to terminate that individual.
And so I am not surprised by it.
You have a Department of Justice
that has over 11,000 lawyers,
largest law firm in the world.
And there is no question that it is filled with
the great percentage have donated,
campaign donations have gone to the left.
And the Department of Justice, from main justice to all
the 94 US attorney's offices, are filled with individuals. It is almost an impossible task
to root out all of the individuals that are bad actors, that are willing to compromise
their prosecutorial discretion and willing to compromise their ethics in order to pursue a
political end. It's a it's a Herculean task. I think that Pam is focused on it. I think Cash Patel is focused on
it, but we're not going to see results as quickly as we would like being on the outside.
Have you been following this prosecution? Yes. People are people are a little bit.
People are bewildered at it and are saying they're not really proving a Rico case at all. It seems
like they're just, they're just proving that he, they're proving that he was a mean guy,
but that's not what he's on trial for.
Exactly.
Yeah.
It is underwhelming.
It is surprising.
But, but I'll tell you this.
It seems consistent with AUSAs, Assistant US Attorneys, who might not have had enough
stick time in a Rico case case, a complex RICO case.
We gravitated as a Department of Justice over the last 15 years to the low-hanging fruit
prosecutions, the easy-to-win cases, the political agenda, the lawfare, all that has overtaken
what historically were individuals
that could go into a courtroom and could prove a case
and knew how to marshal evidence
and put in the work in order to do it.
And I'm not seeing the fruits of that kind of labor
and that kind of effort in this case.
Yeah, do you think the government's throwing this thing?
Well, you have one of the more high profile cases the DOJ has ever done.
You have to be ready on that case. If you're not ready, if you haven't marshalled it,
you know, wait until you present the indictment and then pursue it.
But right now, what you have are individuals that are saying, wow, you know,
despite all that we thought was going to come out, we have yet to see there's some salacious facts,
but we have yet to see. Think about this salacious facts, but we have yet to see.
Think about this.
Every dollar you spend is either supporting your values
or working against your values,
especially in today's economy.
So why not spend your money where it actually matters,
where it actually works,
where it actually helps take back our country?

What DOJ alleged occurred know, alleged occurred.
And it's troubling because there's many of us
who want real concrete answers
and exposing the corruption that occurs
in Hollywood and otherwise.
Yes.
Do you think that there's some type
of like protection mechanism that's going on here?
And the reason why I would ask that
is not just outlandishly.
So there's a record executive named Suge Knight
who has done multiple interviews saying that Diddy was a Fed
and that he was an FBI agent.
He knew Diddy, he was in business with Diddy
and he's currently in prison.
So I'm not sure what value he would have to, you know,
to say this.
I believe that he's saying this honestly,
that Diddy was a Fed and that Diddy worked for the FBI
and that part of this was
part of a, you know, part of this had some type of government fingerprints on it. What
do you think about that?
I don't doubt Suge Knight. I don't think he has a reason to come forward with information.
I, you know, I've seen Suge Knight have have before some solid information about corruption. And so
it's not surprising. I think there's a pattern here, though. You see Epstein, you see others,
there's rumors that float around that they worked, you know, with the government agencies at times.
And I would not doubt that. I would not doubt that there were CIA operations or FBI operations that were ongoing over the many decades in which
many times these individuals were operating criminally. And you go back to Epstein and I
was flabbergasted at the deal that my colleague and friend, Alex Acosta, the U.S. Attorney at the time in Florida, offered a deal, offered to Epstein.
I mean, the only reason that you would believe that such a deal would be granted in that kind of a case and investigation was if there was solid information.
Of course, we'll never know at this point, but there had to have been some solid information about some very high level targets in order to give such a deal to an individual
that was such a criminal.
Yeah, so we actually had Dershowitz on a week ago saying
like, what is this Epstein belongs to intelligence?
Here's Alex Acosta saying it himself.
You say that he's a friend of yours.
We have nothing against Alex Acosta,
but Alex Acosta went before Senate committee
and said he was told to back the F off of Epstein by the Intel committees and says he's ours. What's what do you make of
that Brett?
Yeah. I'll tell you this, Benny. I've had some of those calls before when I was U S
attorney calls that came from Washington DC that said, Hey, we understand you're investigating
this target. And, um, you know, I went to the mat on it. I wanted
answers. I mean, we have clearances, top level SCI clearances as US attorneys. I'd love to know
what was said to Alex, what he knew at the time, the information that they conveyed and the
justification for, I mean, to give you a perspective, Epstein was facing easily
life in prison, multiple life in, you know, sentences in prison with no chance of parole.
And was given in essence, um, a misdemeanor. And, and how do you go from that to what was offered
would only be if high level Washington, D.C. is weighing
in on a U.S. attorney, a very uncomfortable situation. You're right. You don't know how
it was in Alex's shoes. But I do know this, that every U.S. attorney has separate and
independent authority from the Department of Justice, you can make the
decision to go forward regardless of whatever Washington, DC says to you. And there are some
cases where I scratch my head and say, you know, I want to see what the intelligence was. What were
they saying justified somebody that acted the way they did with the many victims that he caused and the criminal conduct that he perpetrated,
what justified that?
And is that happening again?
And why are some of the biggest investigations
not resulting in the best form of justice?
Yeah, have you ever asked?
You said you worked with Alex and you know him.
Have you ever asked?
We had an exchange at one time in the White House
and he was not happy about some of my comments
that I had made on it.
And I said, well, if that's the case and you were told
then let's talk about it, but we didn't get the opportunity.
Dershowitz is an interesting interview
because I was just
like, was Jeffrey Epstein Intel? I asked him and he's like, I don't think so because it wasn't
untrustworthy. But he did ask me to go meet a bunch of Israeli Mossad agents one time and he
did fly into Israel while I was there. And I did set up that interview. And so we did do that. And
I was like, hey Dershowitz, you just answered your question there. That's what he
said. It went viral.
Yeah. First tip.
Okay. All right, man. Well, how did you get OJ off? Well, all right. Well, we, I mean,
I appreciate the honesty. I mean, it really do. It doesn't make any sense. Can you just explain one final thing to us? This wasn't where I
wanted the interview to go. But I'm just too curious about it. And it does seem to be a
live a live grenade that's been handed to the Trump administration. And they just don't.
They just don't. They don't. For some reason, they don't know how to like, you know, put
the pin back in the grenade with this one. That scene is very curious to me.
We have footage of the FBI taking boxes and boxes and boxes of evidence out of his house.
I mean, we have photos from the FBI of big bins with hard drives on them with yellow
tape around a marked evidence.
We have we have the photos.
We have the photos of his cracked case from the fed, from the government, you know, with his fat cracked safe. And it has a bag of
passports, a manila envelope, blossoming with passports, how many passports, CDs, CD roms with
like nudes written on it and a hand written on it and a bag of diamonds. And you're like,
we've never seen any of that.
You know, they, they gave, they like trolled Pam Bondi
and gave her like old flight logs that were already public.
And then they redacted them.
Like, it was like a final insult, right?
What the hell is, where the hell is this stuff, Brett?
Like who's in charge here?
What, you know, what is this?
And if the, if team Trump can't get it
with full executive power and authority, then who's really in charge here?
Benny I'll tell you that I
believe they do have it I
believe that when Pam Bondi sent the letter to cash Patel and
Demanding that it be delivered that it was delivered
I believe that there is
massive amounts of evidence that has to be combed.
And there are strict rules about anything that is released,
not identifying or implication towards any victims.
That becomes a very tedious operation to review that.
I don't know the details, but I imagine that, um, there are,
there's a team of people that are going through it.
It's not happening as quickly as what people like.
I think that it was a bit of a smoke and mirrors show.
We know that a supervisory agent submitted, you know, what was,
in essence, everything that had already come out.
Yeah.
And that it was, it was a bit of an, you know, an embarrassing misstep for the administration,
but not, not surprising for those of us that have seen the Department of Justice, there are
individuals who, who avoided as, as much as they could, avoided getting eliminated or taken out
with the new administration, embedded themselves deep into both agencies
and will continue to try to act in a way to undermine
Cash Patel, Pam Bondi, Todd Blanch,
others that are well-meaning people.
I believe we will see more information.
I think they have it.
I think that they are going through it carefully
and that there will be, you know,
that evidence will come forward.
It won't happen as quickly, I think, as people want.
I don't care if it happens on my timeline.
I just care that it happens.
Me too.
If it happens, I'm fine with it.
That's, you know, you spent 30 years at DOJ?
I did.
Like, don't you?
25 years, over 25 years in the criminal justice system.
Don't you want people to, at the very least,
believe you?
Right, like I want a country where I believe,
where I believe that federal law enforcement
is acting to lock up predators, right, and pederists.
Yes.
Like I want that and aren't protecting them.
Like, isn't that, shouldn't that be like the,
shouldn't that be like the first layer, right?
They're like, my tax dollars aren't going for the,
you know.
And they lost, they lost that.
They did. Of their lost that. They did.
Of their own action.
They did.
As a patron, I want that back.
That's true, I want it too.
I'd like for people to just trust law enforcement again.
Right?
Like at the very least,
like that I believe what you're saying,
but they've atomized my trust
and the trust of this entire audience.
They deserve every bit of skepticism,
every bit of criticism., every bit of criticism,
as a result of all of their actions. It started before Comey. It went through the Comey years, through the Ray years, through Merritt Garland and the attorneys general that we have had.
And they have earned every single bit of not just skepticism, but outright, you know,
of not just skepticism but outright lack of confidence and a belief that the justice system is actually working in a manner against the American people. And that conclusion is justified
by their actions. So let's start with Epstein or let's start with any of the others and let's have
transparency so that we can then again start to have confidence that the administration of justice equally and fairly is the goal and the objective and the conduct that we observe.
Yeah.
I mean, there's like a dude, there's a dude on camera planting pipe bombs at the RNC and the DNC.
Yeah.
Where is that?
That should be the easiest.
Well, who had the cocaine in the White House?
I mean, let's just.
Bro, do you even understand what a what a uniting? I don't know a single member of
MAGA, Brett, that wouldn't be in favor of locking that guy up. Yeah, I don't know anyone.
Yeah, I know. I've been to hundreds of Trump rallies. I've met thousands, tens of thousands,
you know, we have an audience in the multiple millions
and I love them all.
And there's not a single person that would argue
that the guy that put the pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC
shouldn't be in prison.
We shouldn't know who he is, unmask him.
Who was he talking to?
Who set this all up?
Like, let's put them in jail.
Is probably the most unifying issue in the country, actually.
And if it's a, if it was an op, then give us that information. is probably the most unifying issue in the country, actually.
And if it was an op, then give us that information. Let us know who it was, who was carrying it out,
and what was the objective of that op.
Yep, that's right.
All right, well, thank you, thank you, Brett.
We really hope that they bring you back in
as a special prosecutor.
We're gonna keep advocating for that.
We could really use your sharpest tack rings like a bell clarity here
You should follow Brett Tolman on X. He's got
45,000 followers and he needs to get to 47,000 today
Okay, because we have a 47th president 45 and 47. So ladies and gentlemen get in there
There's the handle right there. Follow Brett Tolman.
He's in charge right on crime.
And my producers are demanding that I ask you
if that was a locomotive in the background.
Yes, it is.
That was a train that runs by our barn, our home and barn.
How Western are you?
Yeah.
Are you in Wyoming?
I'm in South Dakota
Right right in the shadows of Mount Rushmore. Yeah. Oh, that's great. Can we do a next time?
Let's do a shootout live on yeah, we can do you know, hi noon. Yeah
You're welcome here anytime. All right horses work. We're actually cut. We're actually going there. I'll connect with you offline
We're going there. Yeah, we're going there soon. You can take us up into the president's skulls
in the mountainside.
I'd love it.
We're gonna show everyone what's up there.
All right, thank you, Brett.
Godspeed.
Thanks, Benny.
["Dreams of a New World"]
Ladies and gentlemen, Will Chamberlain
from the Article III Project,
who is just one of
the world's experts on these issues, who's fighting alongside Mike Davis every single
day, joins us live right now.
I apologize for the delay.
We had a technical error in the show earlier that bumped everything, and so thank you for
your patience.
There's so many concurrent questions here right now.
It's really hard to know where to begin,
but the topic of the day is obviously the investigation
of the Biden pardons.
We read earlier in the show, the presidential pardon power
and what was given to the president in article two.
And there is absolutely no wiggle room there
as far as we read it. We're no experts for like, you know, activist staffers to grab a machine
and say, I'm the president now.
Maybe we're reading the Constitution wrong.
Well, can you educate us?
I'm sorry, well, you're muted.
Uh, yep.
We apologize.
One.
There we go.
Now I hear you.
I got you.
Well, got you, man.
You're good. Are we good now? Yep. You're set. I hear you. I got you, Will. Got you, man.
You're good.
Are we good now?
Yep, you're set.
We hear you loud and clear.
All right.
Sorry, I think the, you know,
somehow the court got disconnected really quickly.
It's one of those days.
One of those days.
Yeah, fair enough.
Yeah, so, I mean, the answer to your question is no,
there is no right for people to use the auto pen that are not.
I'm sorry, there's no right for advisors to issue part. They don't have the right to do that.
Now, I think the auto pen has been used by President Biden, but it's been used by other presidents as well.
The key question is whether or not it's being done at the direction of the president or not.
The president doesn't have to physically sign every single order that goes out the door,
but he has to authorize every single order that goes out the door, but he has to authorize every single order that goes out the door.
So the question with these pardons
and whether or not they're valid
will be if the president in good mind,
you know, with his mind intact, ordered the pardons himself.
And that determining whether or not that actually happened
is the real question.
I mean, how would you be able to prove that?
Like to just, like like I said the names,
I just stood in the middle of the Oval Office
and read out the names of 8,000 people
and Joe Biden knew them all.
I swear to you, Mr. Judge, like how the hell do you prove that?
That's sort of the problem.
And that's ultimately why I think that, you know,
if I'm gonna predict the outcome here,
the outcome I predict is that none of the pardons
are gonna be turned, you know, abol I'm going to predict the outcome here, the outcome I predict is that none of the pardons are going to be turned, you know, abolished or reversed. And I think it's just, I think there's just a proof problem. I don't know how it is, who among there, even if, even if in fact, and I think there's a good probability some of these pardons were done without Biden's knowledge. Would Biden want to admit that that was going on? Would any of his advisors want to admit that happened?
And if they all, you know, if there was,
if there's no writing that proves that this, you know,
that Biden didn't authorize these, like,
if there's no, you know, secret group chat
that we're unaware of, there's no proof from at the time,
I don't think we'll be able to prove it.
And I don't think you'll get a whistleblower
from within the administration,
because if there's a whistleblower, I mean they're almost conceding to a crime themselves,
like they're conceding again that they knew about this grand fraud in the pardons and watched it
happen and did nothing and then that doesn't just lead to a question there, it leads to a
bunch of other questions about every other action taken by the administration. So it opens a huge
pandora's box of you know if these pardons were legitimate,
well, what other presidential actions were done
without the president's knowledge?
So I think that the odds are that
there's gonna be a closed circle.
The administration and the high level officials
in the Biden White House are just not gonna say anything
or are certainly gonna deny
that any presidential action was taken
without presidential authorization.
So I don't think there's gonna be the proof necessary
to change any of these pardons.
What is Kamala's culpability here?
I mean, massive.
Kamala was the vice president of the United States.
She was in the Situation Room
for plenty of high-level meetings.
She would have seen the president.
She would have known exactly
what the president's mental state was. And I think, you know, I read Jake Tapper's book and I know,
you know, there's like, plenty of people have plenty of problems with the messenger. Jake
Tapper is certainly not a perfect messenger for this. But the book does contain some interesting
original reporting specifically about Kamala and about how she did that interview. If you
remember the debate where Biden completely fell apart last year.
Kamala did an interview on CNN with Anderson Cooper afterwards,
and Anderson asked her some tough questions, and she just stonewalled.
And afterwards, she was completely indignant,
how dare you ask me these questions about whether the president is senile or not.
And it's like, I mean, the ego there really indicates, I think, you know, she knew
exactly what was going on. She was the vice president of the United States. She and many others,
it was just a, you know, a common secret, you know, a secret among the administration, but everybody
knew he just wasn't up to it. They were just lying to the media. Well, lying to the media, sadly,
is not a crime. But I guess the public could judge there
in the court of public opinion.
The court of public opinion against the judicial tyranny
in this country has really turned and has really soured.
I think we're seeing maybe some glimmers of hope
from SCOTUS.
I'd like to ask since the Article III project
works so closely at SCOTUS,
and does major work in this arena.
What would be your preferred solution to the nationwide injunction question?
How do you solve a beast like that?
I think you do a few things.
I think the first one is that you
can't issue a new rule that says you can't issue a nationwide injunction
without a free judge panel. I think that's the simplest one. And that solves
the problem of a single judge being able to do it on their own. And it kind of, it
and it heightens the importance of what they're doing and the judges will
discuss it among them.
Generally, you're going to just get more consistent and better results with that.
I also am okay with the idea of a rule that says that judges aren't even allowed
to issue an injunction beyond the confines of the district in which they're in.
So that, you know, whatever their ruling is, doesn't affect broadly.
Now, you know, in some cases, a rule is going to have nationwide effect, even if it's not binding a class of people nationwide, it's just or essentially
DOJ is not going to enforce the law broadly around the country because of the way a judge ruled in
one particular case. You know, there's a lot of reasons why you might still have these things
have broader effect. But I think, you know, either of those two answers will solve 90% of the problem.
And are there are those solutions before the court right now?
They're before the Congress.
This is a congressional issue.
I mean, I think there's a, and that's an interesting question about whether the court could do
it on their own, probably, at least on the procedural question of a three judge panel
versus one judge.
I think they could.
But I don't think the court's planning on doing it.
I think I know there's legislation to that effect working its way through the house.
What do you make of some of these rulings
with Amy Coney Barrett and the rather curious rulings
from the Supreme Court,
specifically on President Trump's deportation powers?
I think the way that the judges, the justices rather,
are handling the emergency dockets
shows what they care about.
Meaning, in the emergency docket is where you hear
all these injunctions and stays
and like the immediate requests for relief.
When the justices are patient and don't really care
and are happy to let things percolate,
you can tell they don't really care
about the issue that much.
When they're willing to drop everything
in the middle of the night,
you know it's what they care about.
Justice Barrett and probably Justice Roberts
care a lot about the rights of illegal migrants.
There's just no way to put it any differently than that.
And it's demonstrated by the fact that
in there was that case down in Texas, I believe,
where you had an injunction issued,
sorry, you had the Supreme Court issue an injunction
against the government before there was even
an underlying opinion from either the district court
or the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
It was a remarkable opinion.
It's the Supreme Court violating its own case law
on their own jurisdiction. So to explain what that
means, the Supreme Court is a court of review, not first view. They only have what's called
original jurisdiction in cases where one state is suing another state over something like water
rights. So this river goes here, this river goes there. Then the state of New York suing the state
of Pennsylvania can go straight to the Supreme Court, not even bother with a lower court opinion. In all of the circumstances,
the Supreme Court has to wait for there to be an underlying opinion from a lower court
before they have a chance to review it and they have jurisdiction. In this case, the ACLU
went to the district court, said, these guys are gonna get deported ASAP.
You need to issue an injunction immediately.
If you don't issue an injunction ASAP,
we are gonna go straight to the Fifth Circuit
Court of Appeals and treat your inaction
as a so-called constructive denial.
And then they went ahead and did that,
even though the district court
was actually acting quite quickly.
They said the exact same thing to the Fifth Circuit.
If you don't grant this injunction immediately,
we are gonna treat your inaction as a constructive denial and go thing to the Fifth Circuit. If you don't grant this injunction immediately, we are going to treat your inaction as a constructive
denial and go straight to the Supreme Court.
And the Fifth Circuit said, well, okay, we'll get to this.
We'll work quickly, but not quickly enough for the ACLU, who then followed up on that.
And so by the time the Supreme Court actually issued this injunction, this was about maybe
five, six weeks ago, it's time the Supreme Court issued this injunction.
There had been no underlying opinion. And it's not like this case had percolated, you know, been sitting on the judges desks for
weeks. You know, the Supreme Court said like, well, it was 14 hours between the filing of the motion
and your failure to rule and the ACLU going to the Fifth Circuit. That's too slow in this instance.
So we're going to treat it as a constructive denial. And you think about that, you're like,
man, the Supreme Court did that.
But then, I mean, you talk about they just denied a case where
they were, I don't know if you saw this, the Snopes case,
they denied cert.
The Snopes case was about a Maryland law
that banned possession of AR-15s, which
are a weapon in common use.
And that ban is almost certainly unconstitutional under Heller
and under Bruin. And Justice Kavanaugh wrote a statement that said,
oh, you know, hopefully there's a few other cases percolating. Hopefully we'll get to this in the
next term or two. It's like, well, it's kind of obvious what you guys, you'll drop everything
and violate your own jurisdictional rules to save some trendy Ragua terrorists. But when it comes to
protecting the second amendment rights of American citizens, the right to own the most commonly possessed gun in this country, the AR-15, you feel like
it's fine to wait another year or so.
Do you think that Amy Coney Barrett has been a horrible disappointment to the Trump administration?
I won't say horrible disappointment because she's not on the left yet, but she's a disappointment
for sure.
It's a big disappointment.
I think we, you know, especially with a conservative justice, there were options that were better than
that. And I think that it's, you know, it strikes me that her jurisprudence, especially on the
emergency docket, just isn't consistent. And it just, I don't know, I wonder how much she was
affected by all the assassination attempt on Kavanaugh, I wonder how much she was affected by all the
assassination attempt on Kavanaugh. I wonder how much she's affected by public pressure and
the opinion of the New York Times and the Washington Post. I just, I don't think she's
doing a very good job. I mean, look at this photo. This is like, it's chilling because
there are these, you know, Justice Breyer and Sandra Day O'Connor,
they're like left wingers that were nominated by Republicans. Like what the hell is wrong with us?
Right? Like I thought that we would never do that again. And then here, you know, here she is.
You hear, I mean, you really are looking at like a five, four court with the Amy, with a considerable
body of Amy Coney Barrett's last rulings.
Yeah, I think that's right. I think we are looking at a very evenly balanced court,
despite the fact that we have six should have like six justices to three at this point.
It's really disappointing. And it's frustrating. You know, I wasn't as involved in the nomination
fights when Barrett was going through, you know, I was I was volunteering a little bit with our
whole three project at the time, but I wasn't full time. And I was just kind of doing my own thing mostly on X.
And I was fighting for her confirmation, obviously, because everybody was. We wanted to get
Ruth Bader Ginsburg replaced with a conservative. But what I'm frustrated by, there were people who
knew, right? There were people who knew her better better who knew what her jurisprudence looked like who had a better sense of who she was and her attitudes on things.
And it seems abundantly clear that they didn't speak up or they didn't make themselves you know didn't make their voices heard that.
Like you know this person wasn't that conservative I mean we have I remember I ran human events at the time we published an article about anybody there.
I ran Human Events at the time and we published an article about Amy Coney Barrett by a guy named John Zimmerak. That was critical and skeptical of renomination. But I don't think, I mean,
none of us were operating on personal knowledge. Zimmerak was just trying to extrapolate from some
of her public statements. It's just disappointing. Why can't we get an actual conservative justice?
And I think that going forward with this, we are going to really demand that we have seen demonstrated
not just like a good turn of phrase
in front of a judiciary committee hearing,
but rather like demonstrated courage
and demonstrated conservative commitments from justices
so that we don't have this happen anymore.
I think we have the article right here from Human Events.
Man, Will, you might've been one of the only right people.
Amy Coney Barrett is not a safe pick
for the Supreme Court is the article.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
but I believe this is the article that you published here.
Yeah.
And I mean, it was written by Zemurak.
I don't know.
I mean, his analysis, I'm not sure he was,
he ended up being right.
I'm not sure if he was right for the reasons
he wrote in that article, but he ended up being right.
He was sort of, he was onto something with sort of being suspicious of Barrett and suspicious
of her conservative commitments.
I like the, I mean, listen, I haven't read the article, but the headline is right on,
you know, the headline is right on.
Yeah.
And we had, we had it back in 20, this is before she, well before she was nominated.
This is when, this is 2019.
Remember she was nominated in 2020.
So we were, we were were way this was a way early
discussion of this topic because back in 2019 that was when she got elevated she got confirmed to the Seventh Circuit
in the first in her first confirmation hearing and people were already making noises about her being the next Supreme Court nominee and
we had an article out about it very quickly and And we had another, we got pushback from people
like Ed Whelan at the time.
And then we had somebody come in and say,
I wanna make the argument the other way.
And I'm like, sure, I don't know much about Amy Coney Barrett.
I was the editor in chief at the time.
I'm happy to publish a debate between these two perspectives.
But yeah, I mean, definitely, I thought it was very,
it turned out to be very, very oppression.
So, you know, in conclusion here, what you're saying is that it worked that all of the campaigns
to reap the whirlwind, as Chuck Schumer would say, all of the armies marching outside of her house,
all the people like coming, you know, coming after her,
that all this worked and that she bent to elite consensus opinion and they were able to ply away
once again and again, this is a tactic that they've used through multiple Republican presidencies
to ply away a Supreme Court justice and move them to the center left.
You're saying that the tactic has worked.
I would say Barrett's in the center.
I wouldn't call her center left now.
But I would say she's very much, she's a centrist judge.
She's not a Republican judge.
Which is not what Trump wanted.
Which was not the point of the Trump nomination.
No Democrat nominee ever has to worry about this.
They never have to worry about their, you know,
no Democrat president has ever nominated somebody
who didn't turn out to be exactly what they wanted.
Because elite consent, you know,
they're just happy to, if they're a leftist judge,
they're within the elite consensus already.
They don't get me to be moved.
Okay, so just real quickly, since you do this work every day,
what the hell is wrong with us?
Why don't we, why can't we do this?
Why can't we get like a, you know,
why can't we get an Alito every time or, you know,
a Thomas every time?
I mean, I think, you know, I will say part of it is-
Are we lied to?
Are we stupid?
Are we weak?
Are we cut?
Like, what is it?
Part of it is the nature of the legal profession.
The legal profession itself skews very far left, right?
And so even the federal society,
which has like the right wing bastion
within the legal profession is sort of center right.
So, and as a result, when you go to law school,
all your professors, almost all of them will be progressives, almost all. Like I went to
Georgetown Law Center, I think there were something like 200 professors on staff. You could classify
three as right to center right out of 200. And that was good compared to other law schools,
which might not have a single conservative on staff. So you are imbibing a progressive view of jurisprudence.
You basically have to, you can come out of it
very conservative in the sense,
and it can be very valuable for a conservative suit
to go through in the sense of,
it's like you're running through the gauntlet.
You're just arguing
with progressive law professors all day.
That's a useful intellectual development tool.
But it does create this dynamic where,
in the legal circles where people are trying to get esteem
and be respected, the opinions they care about,
a very large number of them are going to be progressive.
So I think it is a natural anchor kind
of pulling conservative lawyers to the left.
And so it means that it is a much harder task
and you have to be much more careful
as a Republican president selecting justices
for the Supreme Court, selecting judges,
because you need to find people who are immune to that poll.
Yeah, Mike Davis calls you the professor
and now I understand what you mean by that.
Yeah, thank you, Will.
This is obviously always insightful
and it's something that's very curious to us.
And I wish that we could solve this problem
because if you had a six, three Supreme Court right now,
that was actually rock solid.
I think you'd be rid of so many of the issues
that the Trumps-
We could have done so much.
All this nationwide injunction nonsense
could have been put, the stop could have been put to it in February. And we could just done so much. All this nationwide injunction nonsense could have been put,
the stop could have been put to it in February.
And we could just be slapping him down left and right.
President Trump could be deporting people
much more efficiently and aggressively.
Yeah, it could have been much better.
Nearly 400,000 people follow Will on Axe.
You should be one of them.
He's the chief senior counsel at Article III Project.
Of course, you know it well,
and they are the true rock ribbed fighters
for an actual system of law and order
and justice in this nation.
And you should follow Will.
Godspeed, Will, thank you for being on.
Thank you, Ben.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have some things cooking.
We have some very, we're going to have a very interesting, very unique product line that's
going to be launching and we're going to be launching it with our friends at Spotify.
We're going to be launching it on, on, on Spotify, where we broadcast every single day,
but we're gonna be launching it with Shopify,
Spotify, Shopify.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Shopify brought us into the online e-commerce era.
Shopify assisted us in bringing the Christmas ornament.
We'd never designed one.
We'd never even tried.
This was so far outside of our league.
We didn't even know how to swing a bat.
But Shopify was there for us
so that we could deliver
over a hundred thousand Christmas ornaments
in like a week's time.
When we did it like the 1st of December,
we launched this product.
And because of our friends at Shopify,
we were able to lock in.
Now part of the ease of working with Shopify
was that they were able to not only do the marketing pages
and the design pages for us,
and then the execution, the shipment and delivery,
but also they were able to make it very easy to buy.
Little purple button, the shop pay button
makes it so elegant to be able to just like,
ka-ching, like get that ornament.
You don't want there to be a bunch of layers
between you and the purchasing and that little button,
man, that accounts for a huge portion
of all e-commerce online.
This is something that really helps small businesses
like ours and independent businesses like ours
to make sure that we can start and run a business.
Shopify, ladies and gentlemen,
has really like taken us to the next level
and we're really excited to expand this partnership
into some new and exciting products.
If you wanna see less carts being abandoned,
it's time for you to head over,
if you have a small business to Shopify.
Start up your business today.
A $1 per month trial will begin
and you can make sure that Shopify is powering your company.
Go to Shopify.com slash Benny,

And get ready.
We have some really fun things cooking.
Ladies and gentlemen,
President Trump has released a brand new
White House portrait.
And we just want you to stare at it
because this 4K image is really unbelievable.
Get a load of this.
This is the Donald Trump.
They took out like the mugshot portrait
and now they have, no, no, no, no, need the port.
Yeah, give me the actual 4K portrait.
Thank you.
This thing is remarkable.
Somebody is gonna have to tell me what lens they used here
to get this depth of field.
It is absolutely buttery.
Look at that.
Zoom.
That's it.
You get in, get in on the hair.
Look at that swoop.
Look at that swoop.
How do you do that?
How would you even, how do you even do it?
I want a swoop.
I don't even know.
I'm just happy that I still have hair.
All right.
We'll just count our blessings with that one.
This is the brand new presidential portrait
for Donald Trump.
And well, man, it's really something else.
How do you get, I mean, look at how his shirt
and his tie are out of focus.
And the focus just sort of perfectly drawn right there
on the eyeballs.
Man, it's just primo.
It's just primo.
It's just a thing, just an absolute thing of beauty.
Okay, another thing of beauty.
Largest ever ICE operation results in 1,500
illegals arrested in Blue State.
Operation Patriot, the largest ever ICE operation,
results in the arrests of 1,500 illegals,
including murderers, drug traffickers, child sex predators
in the sanctuary city, state of Massachusetts.
Operation Patriot concluded on Saturday,
netting 1,500 illegal criminal aliens
through the greater Boston area, the state of Massachusetts,
which includes numerous sanctuary jurisdictions.
Sources at ICE told Fox News that 790 of those arrested
had criminal convictions charges,
and 277 had final removal deportation orders.
The sources said that all of the targeted criminals
were roaming the streets of Massachusetts cities freely
before being apprehended.
It's a good start, but I wanna see them up those numbers.
What is this, a center for ants?
It needs to be three times this big.
More, more.
I mean, all this is is like thousands of people
off the Democrats' voter rolls in these big cities.
And it's great.
So you're literally removing the future
of the Democrat party and the
potential vector for destruction of our nation because of course, if these criminal aliens are
just roaming the streets, they're not working, right? They're just parasitic. They're just
living off of an already weakened and you're collapsing welfare state in this country
like an already weakened and you're collapsing welfare state in this country
and enough, right?
Enough.
Ladies and gentlemen,
if you believe that there is enough criminality
and you would like to fight it with us
and like fight the culture wars with us,
please subscribe to our podcast,
wherever you listen to podcasts,
not on Shopify, but on Spotify, please,
or Apple or anywhere.
The QR code right here on your screen will take you there.
We appreciate it.
We're trying to grow and we're trying to expand in an aggressive and exciting way.
That puts us really nicely.
We want to do the build right now, build the empire now, live like a king later, right?
What we want to do is have this audience
and serve this audience and be able to really affect the future of the nation and the way to
do that is obviously having large audiences the ovaughan and joe rogan they all proved that model
out quite clearly this last election cycle in a very smart strategic move for President Trump and
We want to be part of that leading into the future
There's a lot of ways to do that and audience growth is of course one of them
So we thank you ladies and gentlemen for subscribing
We thank you for being part of this audience our way of saying thank you is our verse of the day from Romans 5 5
And hope it does not put us to shame because God's love has been poured out into our hearts
throughout the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Hope does not put us to shame.
God's love has been poured out into our hearts
through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Yeah, I love this.
Hope doesn't put us to shame.
We started the show by fighting against a,
like I just couldn't believe it
when we were going through Target
and seeing all that kind of like,
grimmer satanic crap.
Like it really does get depressing
when you see how far your enemy has gone
and how successful they've been.
You know, it's wild.
It would, you know, the equivalent of course would be like,
putting a church inside a target, right?
Like having every target like be forced to, you know,
sell Bible verses, right?
And Trump gear, you know,
the alternative is wild and conceivable.
And maybe we don't even, you know,
maybe you don't even want that.
Let like secular cultural things be secular and cultural.
But the point is that it was a cultural victory for them.
And so when you're fighting, you're fighting against almost guaranteed deplatforming if
you speak out against this stuff, against left-wing mobs, against people coming after
your family, which happens on a constant and near day-to-day basis, when you face down
evil.
And we did it it together and we
had a lot of hope that we could change something.
And now look at where we've come.
Look at this.
Look what's happened.
It's amazing.
There's not, there's not even like a, there's not even like a pride display in target at
all.
No corporate, no corporation changed their logo at all this month.
Wow.
And what does that owing to?
Like our hope and staying strong through dark times
and through times when we didn't have the power
and God's got our back.
So glory be to God.
Christ is King.
Ladies and gentlemen, we will be heading
to Nashville tonight. We'll be doing a live stream tomorrow from John Rich's house. We'll be
streaming from with our friend, John Rich. He's got this really cool house and he's opening it
up to us and he has some really neat things to talk about. So we're gonna be having a live conversation tomorrow
with John Rich for the program from Nashville.
And we're gonna be live at Kid Rock's new bar opening
tonight in Nashville.
And we'll bring you along with us.
So, and I, we hope that you, hope you enjoy.
It's gonna be a blast.
