[00:01:12]  That's why we are here.
[00:01:15]  Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
[00:01:24]  We are going to celebrate the reversal of Roe versus Wade and the Dobbs decision.
[00:01:28]  It's been one year, but honestly, the biggest story is the lead, Hunter Biden, gets a sweetheart deal from the Department of Justice.
[00:01:39]  Hunter Biden was under investigation for approximately five years.
[00:01:41]  That's about 1,800 days.
[00:01:43]  That's more than a thousand days of actually working, even for federal employees who like to get days like Juneteenth off.
[00:01:51]  And by the way, we had some very strong comments on that yesterday that you guys could check out.
[00:01:55]  It went totally viral.
[00:01:56]  I don't know why.
[00:01:56]  It wasn't even that controversial what we said.
[00:01:58]  Now, by the way, it's not as if there was a lack of material to look at with Hunter Biden.
[00:02:02]  Federal investigators had the entire Hunter Biden laptop.
[00:02:06]  They had former associates of Hunter loudly saying he was involved in corrupt deals, and that those deals went up to all the way the big man, Joe Biden, himself.
[00:02:14]  And five years, after five years, is what prosecutors came up with.
[00:02:18]  Quote, the president's son will plead guilty to two counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax.
[00:02:23]  Failure to pay federal income tax.
[00:02:26]  Hunter Biden also agreed to enter into a pre-trial diversion agreement regarding a separate charge of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance, unquote.
[00:02:40]  We predicted this on this program.
[00:02:42]  We said there was a chance that charges were coming against Hunter Biden soon as a way to try to make it seem as if the scales of justice go against both political parties.
[00:02:51]  Okay, yeah, we're going to go after Donald Trump in the DOJ, but we're also going after the Bidens, too.
[00:02:56]  This is nothing more than a cover talking point against a legit crime family, the Biden crime family.
[00:03:03]  We predicted this months ago.
[00:03:06]  And the heavy news I have to share with you today is that this means that they're likely going to go after Trump on the serious, the most serious of all charges.
[00:03:15]  And we're seeing it.
[00:03:16]  They're starting to put things together for the Donald Trump January 6th indictments.
[00:03:21]  And Julie Kelly, to her great credit, who's on this program, predicted that months ago.
[00:03:24]  She was clear.
[00:03:25]  She said, oh, they're going to indict him.
[00:03:26]  And people thought she was nuts, but she was right.
[00:03:28]  Now, while Hunter Biden made more than $1.5 million in both 2017 and 2018, he paid no federal income tax in either year.
[00:03:37]  He just blew it off.
[00:03:39]  The maximum penalty under the lowered charges Hunter received is one year in prison for each tax charge.
[00:03:46]  But according to CNN, prosecutors planned to seek only probation for both charges.
[00:03:50]  So this is the ultimate slap on a wrist.
[00:03:54]  Yes, he's an issue, but we've already handled that issue.
[00:03:57]  This is the same exact playbook that they used with Joy Reed.
[00:04:02]  This is the same playbook they used with Whoopee Goldberg.
[00:04:04]  You might say, Charlie, that's weird examples.
[00:04:06]  When anybody on the left gets in trouble, they just kind of do, okay, yeah, you take a week off.
[00:04:13]  You're just kind of in the penalty box.
[00:04:17]  You see, they're not actually going to charge Hunter Biden on the legit crimes against the country.
[00:04:22]  They're not going to charge Hunter Biden on how all roads lead to Joe Biden.
[00:04:27]  No.
[00:04:28]  Instead, they're going to do this kind of process, okay, you didn't pay taxes type stuff.
[00:04:34]  He didn't pay taxes all in 2017 or 18.
[00:04:36]  Now, again, the maximum penalty is a year in prison.
[00:04:38]  Hunter Biden is not going to see a day in prison.
[00:04:41]  And eventually, Joe Biden will just pardon his son.
[00:04:44]  So what does all this mean?
[00:04:46]  It means the end of the line on everything else we know about Hunter Biden.
[00:04:50]  This is going to give federal investigators and prosecutors an excuse to close the investigations on Hunter Biden.
[00:04:58]  Oh, he pled guilty.
[00:04:59]  We got it done.
[00:04:59]  We're bipartisan.
[00:05:01]  We go after both parties.
[00:05:02]  This is not a political witch hunt against Joe Biden.
[00:05:06]  This is a veneer of equal justice.
[00:05:11]  It's air cover to go after Donald Trump.
[00:05:14]  Yeah, okay, you got Hunter on some process crimes.
[00:05:17]  You got him on some tax stuff.
[00:05:20]  But now we have the excuse to go full force.
[00:05:22]  So then when Merrick Garland goes in front of a House or a Senate committee, he'll say in that weasly voice, Well, do you understand?
[00:05:30]  We're going after both parties to held accountable because no one is above the law.
[00:05:36]  This is a con.
[00:05:38]  He's going to get probation for two misdemeanors.
[00:05:40]  And now all the chattering class on cable television, they're going to say, well, I think, I guarantee it, I predicted.
[00:05:46]  MSNBC, all these people, this is what they're going to say.
[00:05:49]  They're going to come out and they're going to say, well, I think what this really does is this weakens and invalidates far-right accusations that the Department of Justice is a political organization.
[00:06:00]  That's what they're going to say, verbatim.
[00:06:02]  They're going to be like, wow, the Biden administration is so fair that they go after a son of a sitting president.
[00:06:08]  He even let his own son be charged.
[00:06:10]  Unlike Donald Trump, unlike Donald Trump, who would interfere, this is exactly the talking point they're going to have.
[00:06:18]  This gives the Democrats just enough, just a little bit of an inch, so they need to go full force after Donald Trump.
[00:06:25]  Again, we predicted this earlier this year.
[00:06:27]  I think we could find the clip somewhere.
[00:06:29]  We predicted the Democrats were planning a very calculated offering of Hunter Biden as a front to make the DOGA's activities look fair.
[00:06:38]  We're already seeing this in the kind of Twitter audience, if you will, by the way.
[00:06:42]  The Twitter audi are saying, this is fair.
[00:06:44]  Justice is now served.
[00:06:46]  Now we need to do Jared and Don Jr. and Ivanka.
[00:06:49]  You see, what they're trying to do is weaken a very legitimate and strong criticism that we have that the Department of Justice has become the Praetorian guard and the Gestapo of the American Democrat Party.
[00:07:03]  And they know it's legit.
[00:07:04]  They would not be doing this if they did not need to run an interference in a PR communications way to say, hey, we have some problems.
[00:07:12]  We have some real issues.
[00:07:14]  Now, look at what we have.
[00:07:15]  Two weeks after the federal Trump indictment, one of the most calculated acts of political aggression in American history, we have these charges against Hunter Biden.
[00:07:26]  They say, look, everyone, the DOJ is incredibly fair.
[00:07:29]  This is smokescreen.
[00:07:30]  Do not fall for this.
[00:07:31]  We're getting some emails and some people say, oh, Charlie, finally there's equal justice.
[00:07:36]  Oh, do not fall for that.
[00:07:38]  This is not equal justice.
[00:07:40]  Play cut 21.
[00:07:41]  This is Catherine Herridge at CBS.
[00:07:43]  Very instructive.
[00:07:44]  Play cut 21.
[00:07:45]  I can tell you, having covered this for several years now, that this is likely to be a very controversial plea agreement, especially with Republicans on Capitol Hill.
[00:07:55]  Over the last few years, not only in the House, but in the Senate, their investigators have raised very serious questions about these business deals with Chinese nationals, as well as this Ukraine energy firm, Burisma.
[00:08:08]  And then, more recently, we've had whistleblowers come forward.
[00:08:11]  An IRS whistleblower spoke on the record with CBS News, as well as whistleblowers from the Justice Department have gone to Capitol Hill complaining that this investigation has been slow walked and that standard investigative procedures have not been followed.
[00:08:25]  So, this may just be the beginning of the story in many respects.
[00:08:29]  So, let me just make sure this is clear.
[00:08:31]  If you read all of the mainstream covering of this, they're making it actually see heavier against Joe Biden.
[00:08:38]  They're so orchestrated, the Operation Mockingbird media.
[00:08:41]  So, if you read the headlines from CNN, they say, Hunter Biden to plead guilty to federal charges, CNN.com.
[00:08:49]  Well, that sounds bad.
[00:08:52]  Now, in criminal law, any defendant has the right or the ability to plead guilty at any time.
[00:08:59]  But do you know what is not always offered?
[00:09:02]  A plea agreement to plead down to a misdemeanor.
[00:09:08]  The prosecution has to offer a plea deal.
[00:09:11]  Now, at any time, like Donald Trump could plead guilty right now, but prosecutors are not meeting with Trump's attorneys saying, All right, you're a former president, all these documents.
[00:09:20]  If you plea, Mr. President, we can make this go down to misdemeanors.
[00:09:23]  They're not doing that.
[00:09:25]  Instead, it's very obvious what happened here.
[00:09:28]  Hunter Biden's legal team, back channeling with Joe Biden, who is hanging out with all the DOJ people.
[00:09:33]  There's pictures of him with DOJ people recently.
[00:09:36]  They said, Look, we have a big hunter problem.
[00:09:38]  Let's just make it an inch wide and a millimeter deep, even though it's a mile, really deep, on the most easy stuff to agree to that's not going to hurt us politically, tax stuff, because people don't like the IRS as it is.
[00:09:51]  But then the prosecutors have to meet us halfway and agree to basically say, We're not going to bring this to trial.
[00:09:57]  And if you plea down to a misdemeanor, why didn't they offer that deal to Douglas Mackey, the meme maker?
[00:10:05]  Why didn't they offer this deal to Steve Bannon?
[00:10:09]  Hey, Steve, you're the first one that we're actually going to bring to trial for contempt of Congress.
[00:10:14]  Why didn't they bring a plea agreement to Lieutenant General Michael Flynn?
[00:10:18]  Oh, no, because Hunter Biden is the son of the king, and this is all a psyop to make you believe we actually have an equal justice system.
[00:10:29]  Do not fall for it.

[00:11:10]  It's so clear what's going on here, and it's politically brilliant on behalf of Joe Biden.
[00:11:14]  I mean, it's unbelievably corrupt, but there's an architect.
[00:11:17]  It might be Ron Clain.
[00:11:19]  Who knows?
[00:11:19]  It might be Joe Biden himself.
[00:11:21]  Who knows?
[00:11:21]  He might have come to sentence at some point.
[00:11:25]  And so Joe Biden had a tough political challenge in front of him.
[00:11:28]  My son is basically a legit international criminal.
[00:11:31]  I don't want him in prison for life, though.
[00:11:33]  How can I protect him and still take out Donald Trump like I'm Joseph Stalin?
[00:11:37]  Also, how can I restore faith in the DOJ to go after the legit political enemies that I need to take off the chessboard?
[00:11:44]  So there is definitely a meeting.
[00:11:46]  It'd be interesting, of course.
[00:11:47]  Do you notice, just as a short, short, short side note, do you notice nothing leaks out of this White House?
[00:11:52]  Like, nothing leaks.
[00:11:55]  Maybe because reporters are not constantly jockeying all of the staffers to try to get things leaked.
[00:12:04]  And the Trump White House, it was a leak-a-thon.
[00:12:07]  I mean, from what I would have a meeting with Trump, and within 20 minutes, I would get texts from New York Times Watch Post.
[00:12:15]  I was your meeting with the president.
[00:12:16]  How did you know?
[00:12:18]  Because everyone would just, there would be like what we just called them in Game of Thrones, the little birds.
[00:12:26]  The little birds that would just kind of be leaking stuff all the time.
[00:12:30]  You get the reference, you get the reference.
[00:12:32]  Anyway, so the, you notice nothing leaks.
[00:12:35]  So Joe Biden definitely had a war room going on this, where they said, okay, we need to be able to use the DOJ.
[00:12:42]  The DOJ, however, needs to appear as impartial.
[00:12:47]  So Joe Biden had multiple problems, and the Biden administration had to figure this out.
[00:12:52]  So the first issue, the most depressing issue, is we have to try to take out Donald Trump.
[00:12:59]  Okay, so they've done that.
[00:13:00]  Then they realize that people's trust in the DOJ goes down.
[00:13:03]  So how do I solve my Hunter Biden problem with this cokehead criminal while also simultaneously trying to get people not to view the DOJ as this Democrat-Praetorian guard?
[00:13:17]  So that actually solves two problems for the Biden administration.
[00:13:20]  Now, if you fall for it, if the media falls for it.
[00:13:23]  So you get this sweetheart deal, and they drag out this case for years, and then they drop it at the perfect moment.
[00:13:32]  Timing, timing, timing, timing.
[00:13:35]  Why are they dropping the Hunter Biden plea deal right now?
[00:13:39]  They're dropping the Hunter Biden plea deal because there's probably a fair amount of Republican senators that are pretty animated the DOJ is going after Donald Trump.
[00:13:48]  So Merrick Garland had this in his back pocket.
[00:13:50]  They gamed this out probably around Christmas.
[00:13:52]  They knew that the House was eventually going to find Hunter Biden's crimes.
[00:13:56]  So they said, How can we turn down the attack dogs on Hunter Biden and say, hey, he's a suffering drug addict.
[00:14:04]  He's already pled guilty.
[00:14:05]  Leave him alone.
[00:14:06]  It's a non-issue.
[00:14:07]  How can you make it seem like a non-issue?
[00:14:10]  Because now anything more than this will make it seem as if you're just out to get Hunter poor Hunter Biden.
[00:14:15]  He's already pled guilty.

=== Gaming the Political Landscape (02:01) ===

[00:14:16]  Leave the man alone.
[00:14:17]  I could just hear the cable news segments.
[00:14:19]  Right-wing extremists and paranoid QAnon conspiracy theorists are trying to continue to push that Hunter Biden as the center of an international crime ring.
[00:14:28]  Experts say that these theories lead to violence, and there's no evidence to support that.
[00:14:32]  And Hunter Biden has already pled guilty to tax accounts, to tax aversion.
[00:14:38]  Cut 31, CNN says they're positioning this as he's trying to take accountability.
[00:14:44]  You see, this, everyone knows Hunter Biden is a total criminal.
[00:14:48]  They know it.
[00:14:50]  And so Joe Biden, he actually cares less about his son's future.
[00:14:54]  The only issue, though, that he has with his son is that his son could rat him out if he goes into really like gets really prosecuted.
[00:15:01]  So Joe Biden has to kind of like, as a mafioso leader, kind of make sure that his son doesn't go Fulfredo.
[00:15:08]  And by the way, do you notice how they always say this?
[00:15:10]  It's like, oh, he's suffering from a disease.
[00:15:13]  He's not to blame.
[00:15:14]  There's a great book called Life at the Bottom by Dr. Theodore Dalrymple.
[00:15:18]  I love it.
[00:15:19]  Where he says, Do you notice that in modern culture, we never actually tell people that they're responsible for their own addictions and their own behaviors?
[00:15:26]  No, you made a conscious decision to get addicted to cocaine.
[00:15:30]  Cocaine did not fall out of the sky, and all of a sudden you said, oh my goodness, I'm a victim of a crack tornado that hit my home.
[00:15:37]  Play cut 31.
[00:15:39]  Positioning this as he's trying to take accountability for the crimes that he committed when he was an addict, which he has been very public about.
[00:15:48]  So this is part of that step in that process.
[00:15:52]  This is all designed guys, this is designed by the Biden administration to improve the political possibility, the political chances of Joe Biden going into 2024.
[00:16:04]  This is all designed with the intent to try and solve the Hunter Biden problem.
[00:16:09]  But the bigger issue is this we'll talk about it.
[00:16:12]  This is all designed as a way to mount the most serious of all charges.

=== Building the Parallel Economy (02:12) ===

[00:16:18]  It's building, and it's building and it's building.
[00:16:20]  They start with the Stormy Daniels garbage and now they might go for the I word.
[00:16:27]  All right, I got an important thing to share with you.
[00:16:30]  You are probably tired about all these left-wing, progressive companies and you're probably exhausted with trying to keep up with all their virtue signaling and their woke nonsense.
[00:16:39]  It's a question, right?
[00:16:41]  Why has corporate America decided to say we hate you to their customers?
[00:16:46]  I mean, I see Adidas.
[00:16:47]  Adidas might as well have a big sign that says we hate you.
[00:16:52]  Look, progressive left-wing companies are taking over the market and it's time for us to fight back.
[00:16:58]  I want to tell you about a company I really care about, run by a friend of mine who's a great American, and they're growing and they need your help and it's very important.
[00:17:06]  Okay look, we don't have to fund these companies, the left-wing companies.
[00:17:10]  We finally have an alternative Public Square.
[00:17:14]  We have a solution.

[00:18:50]  All of this with Hunter Biden is leading towards something.
[00:18:54]  They don't want to have to do this, but they think that they have this thing perfectly planned.
[00:18:58]  And let me walk you through what the plan entails now, because it's very clear to me.
[00:19:03]  We did accurately predict that Hunter was going to face charges, and they're now going to deploy people in the media, see we should trust the DOJ, see we should trust the DOJ, see we should trust the DOJ, but they're building towards something.
[00:19:15]  And I can say confidently, more so than any other time that I've been hosting this program, that I think that Jack Smith, who is now proven to be a hyper-aggressive prosecutor, I think that there is a good likelihood he's going to go for insurrection.
[00:19:33]  One of the things that stood out to me when I was reading the Peter Strzok and Lisa Page text messages, which were the two FBI agents that failed to stop Donald Trump from becoming president despite trying to use the FBI to do so, is that there was something in those text messages that always bothered me when they mentioned the backup plan.
[00:19:59]  When Peter Strzzok and Lisa Page were ranting about how much they hated Trump, even though they were in charge of counterterrorism, talking about how they had meetings in Andy's office, part of their text, what always bothered me was when Peter Strzzok was so confident that they had a backup plan.
[00:20:22]  Now, their backup plan failed largely because Hillary Clinton didn't campaign in Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania, and Donald Trump did a great campaign and shocked the world.
[00:20:32]  But 2016 was such a threat to these septogenarian and octogenarian Marxist boomers that they're never going to let that happen again.
[00:20:46]  And so in 2020, they did their COVID thing, and it worked masterfully.
[00:20:50]  But they can't do that again, at least the same way.
[00:20:52]  So they have to have a whole new plan to try to prevent this populist, nationalist, people-centered, conservative movement from gaining power.
[00:21:00]  They're nervous.
[00:21:01]  Gallup poll shows the country is more conservative than any time it has been in the last 10 years.
[00:21:06]  We're taking over school boards.
[00:21:07]  We're taking over state legislatures.
[00:21:09]  The pride stuff is no longer popular.
[00:21:11]  The BLM stuff is no longer popular.
[00:21:13]  We're turning young people, young moms, blacks, Latinos.
[00:21:17]  The country is moving in a center-right direction.
[00:21:21]  But the administration of elections, what the left is very good at, what they master at, what they focus at, is they're going all in and they're going early.
[00:21:32]  So, this indictment, that's not even an indictment, that's what's crazy.
[00:21:36]  It's a plea deal with Hunter Biden.
[00:21:37]  They offered a plea agreement.
[00:21:40]  It's all about Donald Trump.
[00:21:43]  So, what is the backup plan now if you are the Department of Justice?
[00:21:48]  The backup plan is very simple: indict him for insurrection, which serves two benefits for the regime and Biden.
[00:22:02]  Number one is that he has to run as an indicted candidate against insurrection.
[00:22:09]  So, that's number one.
[00:22:10]  Number two, if he is miraculously able to win again, because you better believe they fear him, he constitutionally cannot sit as president of the United States if he is convicted of insurrection.
[00:22:24]  That is one of the ones that actually could prevent him from becoming president.
[00:22:28]  Not the Stormy Daniels one or the document thing.
[00:22:31]  So, the backup plan of backup plan is to have a conviction of a former president on insurrection.
[00:22:39]  Now, you might say, Charlie, that is such an outrageous charge.
[00:22:42]  Of course, it is.
[00:22:43]  But we are in a new era of America called zip code justice, where your justice is dependent on the jury pool you draw from based on the zip code that you get a trial in.
[00:22:56]  If Donald Trump was tried of insurrection in Enid, Oklahoma, or in Great Falls, Montana, the jury would meet for five minutes and he would be acquitted of all charges.
[00:23:08]  But in Washington, D.C., with how they're moving the Overton window, how they're dominating the papers, Jack Smith is focused on convincing an audience of 12, 12 random people, or are they going to be random?
[00:23:27]  I mean, they do a lot in jury selection.

=== The January 6th Indictment (10:28) ===

[00:23:29]  That is, I think, rather nefarious, to go after Donald Trump.
[00:23:34]  Multiple factors now point to a federal indictment against Donald Trump on January 6th related charges.
[00:23:42]  First, the Justice Department has already obtained multiple convictions on the most serious charge, which is seditious conspiracy.
[00:23:51]  By the way, this is just such a joke.
[00:23:54]  January 6th being called a seditious conspiracy or an insurrection.
[00:23:59]  How can you have an insurrection with no weapons?
[00:24:02]  Can somebody explain that to me?
[00:24:04]  How can you have an insurrection when they open the doors for you to come in?
[00:24:09]  This whole thing is so laughable, but a D.C. jury, they can be convinced.
[00:24:14]  Grandma walking through Congress is a threat to the Republic.
[00:24:19]  Justice Department has already obtained multiple convictions on seditious conspiracy and long prison terms for multiple militia group members.
[00:24:26]  Jack Smith might not be able to directly tie Trump to the violence, but it would be a gross injustice, this is the Washington Post, injustice for the people, gross injustice for the people Trump told to go to the Capitol, do the bidding to get heavy jail sentences, but to let the man they believe sent orders to go free.
[00:24:44]  By winning convictions on seditious conspiracy, the Justice Department has proved that the events of January 6 were sedition, namely an effort to, quote, overthrow and put down or destroy by force the government of the United States or to oppose by force the authority thereof or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States.
[00:25:08]  This is Julie Kelly, and she has perfectly predicted this whole thing.
[00:25:11]  And so this, I just want to make sure you all realistically understand what you're dealing with here.
[00:25:16]  This Hunter Biden thing here is trying to balance the PR narrative to try to disarm and disable our effective criticism of the DOJ of being a Praetorian guard.
[00:25:26]  Oh, look, they go after Hunter Biden too.
[00:25:28]  They go after Andrew Gillum too.
[00:25:30]  So shut up.
[00:25:31]  It is a bipartisan DOJ.
[00:25:33]  We're not politicized.
[00:25:35]  So they need that talking point to get to cross this next Rubicon.
[00:25:39]  One thing leads to the next.
[00:25:40]  So let's just go back.
[00:25:41]  Remember, they must make the unthinkable acceptable.
[00:25:45]  Look at how the Overton window has moved, everybody.
[00:25:49]  At Christmas, the idea of indicting Donald Trump was largely unthinkable.
[00:25:54]  But they're so skilled at moving the Overton window.
[00:25:58]  They practice it.
[00:25:59]  What is the Overton window?
[00:26:00]  The Overton window is a spectrum of which actions, policies, and political views move on a spectrum of things that go from unthinkable to popular.
[00:26:11]  For example, defund the police or transing the kids.
[00:26:14]  It all moves on the spectrum.
[00:26:15]  And you can move forward and you can move back and you can move forward and you can move back.
[00:26:19]  So what was unthinkable at Christmas, Donald Trump being indicted, is now considered to be just kind of normal coffee conversation.
[00:26:27]  It's kind of normal.
[00:26:28]  Alvin Bragg was the one that helped move the Overton window on drummed up, kind of nonsensical charges, but they deployed Bragg because he was the one that was willing to bite first.
[00:26:40]  If they would have charged on documents first, there would have been all this outrage on DOJ's overreach.
[00:26:47]  But since they're so skilled at moving the Overton window, this slow build, the discipline that these people have taken in building quote-unquote media consensus and peppering this.
[00:27:03]  This is not a mistake.
[00:27:06]  This is centrally planned.
[00:27:08]  This is coordinated.
[00:27:09]  This is harmonized.
[00:27:10]  Jennifer Rubin says, the conversation about the propriety of indicting a former president has percolated throughout the political system.
[00:27:19]  As evidence of Trump's liability on multiple grounds in different venues has mounted, we saw the shift from, quote, and she's awful, by the way, how can we indict without becoming a banana republic to how can we fail to indict without becoming a banana republic?
[00:27:39]  Now, she thinks the people are with her.
[00:27:42]  They're not.
[00:27:42]  The people think this is banana republic stuff.
[00:27:44]  But that doesn't matter.
[00:27:45]  What matters is what do 12 random people in Washington, D.C. believe?
[00:27:50]  It doesn't matter what the people in Kansas or Montana or Utah believe.
[00:27:54]  They're not necessary.
[00:27:55]  What matters is if you draw a jury pool from D.C. and you use heavily charged language and you make him seem as if he is Benito Mussolini, can you get 12 people to agree on insurrection?
[00:28:08]  And in some way, insurrection and seditious conspiracy, it's like word games, not in the criminal code, but to a juror, they're like, oh, I hate Trump.
[00:28:18]  What's the big difference?
[00:28:18]  They think he's a Russian agent still.
[00:28:21]  Insurrection, they think he's a traitor to the United States.
[00:28:25]  You walk the streets of Washington, D.C. in Georgetown.
[00:28:28]  The majority of people you talk to think Donald Trump is a moral equivalent to Hitler.
[00:28:34]  And it proves that they shifted the discussion on purpose, very deliberate steps to make indicting a former president normalized.
[00:28:42]  This was all about normalizing because it goes back to those private texts of Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.
[00:28:49]  What is the backup plan?
[00:28:53]  The backup plan is to convict him of insurrection.
[00:28:57]  The backup plan is to convict him of the thing that the United States Constitution says you cannot be convicted of to become president.
[00:29:06]  Now, this is the counter argument to everything I've just said.
[00:29:10]  Smart Democrats know the political math and the political magic of Donald Trump.
[00:29:17]  And they take him so seriously.
[00:29:21]  They fear his movement and you so much that they are emptying the clip.
[00:29:30]  They are going Blitz Creek.
[00:29:34]  Someone got very angry.
[00:29:36]  They said, Charlie, it's not emptying your clip.
[00:29:37]  It's emptying your magazine.
[00:29:39]  Okay, I'll stand corrected.
[00:29:40]  Boy, we have a very nasty emailer sometimes.
[00:29:43]  People are like, boom, all right, whatever.
[00:29:45]  Well, thank you for the feedback.
[00:29:47]  Somebody said here, Charlie, I feel so hopeless.
[00:29:49]  What can I do about Donald Trump getting indicted?
[00:29:53]  Well, I'll be very honest, there's really not much you can do at this point.
[00:29:56]  It's kind of like asking during Pearl Harbor, what are we going to do?
[00:30:00]  Like, just don't die.
[00:30:02]  And then once they leave, reload and then fight them and win.
[00:30:05]  What you are living through right now took them decades of preparation while decent and ordinary Americans allowed them to take over everything.
[00:30:12]  By the way, just a reminder, stay peaceful.
[00:30:14]  That's a metaphor, not a literal thing.
[00:30:15]  Okay.
[00:30:17]  But there's not much to do.
[00:30:19]  They control all the instruments of power.
[00:30:21]  Now, if we had an opposition party, which we don't, Republican attorney generals could be indicting Democrats across the country.
[00:30:27]  I'm just kind of tired of saying that because no one listens to me, right?
[00:30:30]  There's no indictments for BLM.
[00:30:32]  There's no indictments for any leading Democrats.
[00:30:34]  We don't do that because Republicans are afraid of it.
[00:30:36]  So that could be done, but it's not.
[00:30:38]  I'm so cynical on that.
[00:30:40]  It's not going to happen.
[00:30:40]  They're afraid of doing it.
[00:30:42]  So we just have to admit that every Republican attorney general in the country is afraid to use the justice system to hold criminals accountable.
[00:30:50]  That happened to be Democrats.
[00:30:53]  And so basically, we just have to withstand this, and we have to do everything we can to support the good guys in this fight.
[00:30:59]  Hopefully, Donald Trump has really talented lawyers that are able to navigate this.
[00:31:03]  But this Hunter Biden plea deal points directly towards at the very least seditious conspiracy.
[00:31:10]  And Jack Smith, because he just appears to be, he just tries to hit a grand slam.
[00:31:15]  You know the type of baseball player, like these eighth graders that play baseball, every time they step up, they're swinging for the fences.
[00:31:21]  You're like, dude, like, it's okay to get a walk sometimes.
[00:31:23]  It's okay to hit a single.
[00:31:25]  Nope.
[00:31:25]  Jack Smith is like, he points to center field, like the great Bambino, and he wants to hit like a grand slam every time.
[00:31:32]  And sometimes he does, and sometimes he swings and misses and completely wins.
[00:31:38]  And so this is leading.
[00:31:39]  I just want to make sure you are all understanding of where we're headed.
[00:31:44]  This is building towards an insurrection charge.
[00:31:48]  Now, are the Democrats overreaching?
[00:31:51]  Around most of the country, yes.
[00:31:53]  But Democrats have such a sophisticated political machine.
[00:31:57]  I guarantee you, through artificial intelligence and aggregated data, stuff that Republicans don't do at all, right?
[00:32:02]  This is all the Democrats.
[00:32:03]  They've probably run models of would you vote for a candidate under indictment of insurrection?
[00:32:10]  Remember, they can drop indictments at any time.
[00:32:12]  So they could indict him of insurrection, kind of see how the trial is proceeding, see how things are going.
[00:32:19]  But he has to live with the weight of being an indicted president on quote-unquote insurrection.
[00:32:25]  And so somebody says here, Charlie, the DOJ did actually charge insurrection.
[00:32:29]  Would it go to trial before the election?
[00:32:32]  We don't know.
[00:32:33]  But honestly, the DC kind of like court, they could prioritize this at the top of the docket, right?
[00:32:39]  I mean, they could basically say, hey, we want to get a jury, want to get this, and it will get appealed and all of that.
[00:32:46]  But again, we're not dealing with a real justice system.
[00:32:48]  This whole thing is fake.
[00:32:49]  It's like a Potempkin village, okay?
[00:32:51]  The whole thing is just incredibly fraudulent at this point.
[00:32:56]  But don't celebrate the Hunter Biden plea deal as some sort of administration of justice like some people are.
[00:33:03]  Some Republicans are like, it's very good to see the Department of Justice finally going after both sides.
[00:33:08]  This guy is an outright criminal.
[00:33:11]  He's not even spending a day in jail.
[00:33:12]  Stop celebrating this.
[00:33:13]  This thing is a con and it leads towards something.
[00:33:17]  It is a means to an end.
[00:33:19]  And the end is to stop the populist nationalist movement that is diverse.
[00:33:24]  It's multi-generational.
[00:33:25]  It involves muscular class.
[00:33:26]  It involves all sorts of different people that finally want to have a voice in D.C.
[00:33:30]  This is the regime preempting via a, as I say, I've said it before, a legal Pearl Harbor against the center right of this country to make you hide, wither away, and put Donald Trump in prison.
