Can your savings weather an economic storm?

00:02.20 – 00:04.16

There are a few physical assets you can invest in

00:04.16 – 00:05.72

that are proven to stand the test of time.

00:06.24 – 00:09.58

Gold is withstood as a valued form of money for millennia.

00:10.12 – 00:12.16

And Birch Gold lets you convert a retirement account

00:12.16 – 00:14.68

into a tax-sheriffed IRA in physical gold

00:14.68 – 00:16.56

that doesn't cost you a penny out of pocket.

Dan Bongino.

00:28.18 – 00:29.64

Welcome to the Bongino Brief.

00:29.64 – 00:30.54

I'm Dan Bongino.

00:31.22 – 00:32.62

I said this last week.

00:32.96 – 00:34.60

I'm glad everybody's paying attention.

00:35.02 – 00:38.80

Every single day, prominent members of the Republican Party

00:38.80 – 00:39.92

and the conservative movement

00:39.92 – 00:41.94

better get their asses up to court

00:41.94 – 00:44.42

and be seen in the background with Donald Trump.

00:44.74 – 00:45.10

Why?

00:45.42 – 00:46.12

In the chat.

00:46.66 – 00:47.70

Campaigns are two things.

00:47.96 – 00:48.92

If we don't know the answer,

00:48.98 – 00:50.10

we can't be friends at this point.

00:50.14 – 00:50.58

What are they?

00:52.04 – 00:54.92

Yes, sir, snapshots and soundbites.

00:55.04 – 00:55.78

We know that.

00:56.00 – 00:57.60

These are the snapshots we need.

00:57.78 – 00:59.52

It's kind of caught mid-frame of Donald Trump.

00:59.52 – 01:01.00

You'll see over his right shoulder,

01:01.48 – 01:03.16

Speaker, look at these guys, zooming in and everything.

01:03.48 – 01:06.14

You'll see Speaker Mike Johnson, very good.

01:06.42 – 01:08.06

We may not agree on everything,

01:08.24 – 01:10.92

but when he does something right, good, okay?

01:10.96 – 01:12.90

When he does something wrong, not good.

01:13.18 – 01:15.24

You'll see Doug Burgum, Governor of North Dakota,

01:15.34 – 01:16.28

former presidential candidate.

01:16.62 – 01:17.86

You see Vivek Ramaswamy.

01:17.96 – 01:19.28

Of course, you see Eric Trump there.

01:19.82 – 01:21.70

I heard Byron Donalds was there.

01:22.02 – 01:24.58

Every single day, prominent Republicans

01:25.12 – 01:27.28

take your asses, ass, here it is.

01:27.50 – 01:28.18

You see this thing?

01:28.18 – 01:31.46

The ass, you take it, you get it out of the seat,

01:31.74 – 01:32.50

like this, you see?

01:32.72 – 01:33.56

This is the seat.

01:33.82 – 01:35.52

You remove the ass from the seat.

01:35.62 – 01:37.26

You can even bring the seat with you if you want.

01:37.54 – 01:38.56

You come up to New York,

01:38.74 – 01:40.52

you can put the seat right there, I don't really care.

01:40.76 – 01:43.44

And you put your ass right in front of Donald Trump.

01:43.84 – 01:46.00

Ass, courtroom, New York.

01:46.24 – 01:48.16

Because we gotta show these goons

01:48.16 – 01:50.24

that we're gonna be in charge soon, okay?

01:50.62 – 01:52.92

You guys wanna manipulate and screw with power?

01:53.04 – 01:54.22

Be careful what you ask for,

01:54.28 – 01:55.50

because that's syrup of ipecac.

01:55.50 – 01:58.38

Open up, kids, here comes the spoonful.

01:58.94 – 02:00.20

It ain't gonna taste good.

02:01.40 – 02:03.68

Good for you guys, I appreciate it.

02:04.20 – 02:05.94

Let's see who shows up tomorrow.

02:06.34 – 02:07.52

More, more, more.

02:07.68 – 02:09.40

Cycle them through every single day.

02:09.72 – 02:13.28

Every day, prominent Republicans with big followings.

02:13.54 – 02:14.76

Get your asses up there.

02:15.04 – 02:16.10

Wanna see everyone there.

02:16.38 – 02:19.14

I'd like to see Rubio there, get Ted Cruz there.

02:19.38 – 02:20.12

Get them all there.

02:21.02 – 02:24.26

I don't care if you like or dislike any of these guys.

02:24.26 – 02:26.52

It's time to back up our candidate at this point.

02:26.66 – 02:28.42

Speaking of that, I'm gonna get to an important topic.

02:28.90 – 02:30.44

This is something I've been dying to discuss.

02:30.56 – 02:32.66

I'm gonna be doing some segments over the next few days,

02:32.74 – 02:33.98

kind of independent of the news.

02:34.54 – 02:36.60

Here's one of them, it's gonna be quick, but it's important.

02:37.58 – 02:39.46

I'm not telling you we're wasting time

02:39.46 – 02:41.24

on who the VP's pick's gonna be,

02:41.26 – 02:42.72

because the vice president's important.

02:43.24 – 02:45.30

Trump is obviously gonna be a one-term president

02:45.30 – 02:47.06

at this point, he's already had his first term.

02:47.56 – 02:49.80

The vice president is probably gonna have a leg up

02:49.80 – 02:51.68

on the next presidential cycle.

02:52.36 – 02:53.98

But there's definitely gonna be a primary.

02:54.62 – 02:56.86

So the vice presidential pick is important,

02:56.86 – 02:57.84

there's no doubt about it.

02:58.12 – 03:00.54

But folks, there's been so much palace intrigue

03:00.54 – 03:01.90

about the vice presidential pick.

03:02.32 – 03:04.74

Have you heard almost any discussion whatsoever

03:04.74 – 03:06.00

of the most important pick of all?

03:06.20 – 03:07.50

What do you think in the chat that is?

03:07.78 – 03:09.34

Far more important than vice president.

03:09.92 – 03:12.62

Because number one, let me just make the case

03:12.62 – 03:13.92

on why it's more important.

03:14.72 – 03:15.70

I don't mean to tell you why,

03:15.70 – 03:17.14

but why it's more important than the vice presidency.

03:17.66 – 03:18.94

The vice president doesn't do anything.

03:19.46 – 03:20.62

They're a tie-breaking vote.

03:20.62 – 03:21.72

That's kind of important.

03:21.82 – 03:23.08

But really, they don't do anything

03:23.08 – 03:25.36

besides advise the president.

03:25.48 – 03:26.44

You see them around the White House,

03:26.44 – 03:27.78

and everybody kind of treats them

03:27.78 – 03:29.04

like another cabinet member, okay?

03:29.38 – 03:31.36

And if the vice president turns out to suck,

03:31.62 – 03:33.02

we can primary them in four years.

03:33.84 – 03:34.62

What's the position?

03:35.34 – 03:38.38

Yes, sir, chatsters way ahead of me.

03:38.50 – 03:41.00

Attorney General, you guys are so freaking smart.

03:41.26 – 03:43.08

Some of you probably watched my Locals video,

03:43.26 – 03:44.94

where I always do kind of a preview to the show.

03:45.02 – 03:48.08

I give my Locals crowd a little skinny before the show.

03:48.36 – 03:50.20

Attorney General, hell yeah.

03:50.20 – 03:51.96

1,000 times more points.

03:52.10 – 03:53.54

Does anybody in the room disagree?

03:55.76 – 03:57.18

No, they do not.

03:57.36 – 04:00.48

Evita, Evita agrees with me, I think.

04:00.88 – 04:02.74

Attorney General, folks,

04:03.12 – 04:04.44

the vice president doesn't really do much.

04:04.66 – 04:07.28

The Attorney General is going to have the power

04:07.28 – 04:09.82

to stop this weaponization bullshit,

04:10.26 – 04:13.12

fire all these people, and start over from scratch,

04:13.24 – 04:15.66

so we have a justice system where you can say,

04:16.26 – 04:17.38

hey, you know what?

04:17.80 – 04:18.66

I'm pro-life.

04:18.66 – 04:20.68

Am I gonna be arrested tomorrow for that?

04:21.04 – 04:22.42

We don't wanna say that anymore.

04:22.76 – 04:24.46

You can say to yourself, you know, Justin,

04:24.74 – 04:26.84

the Martin County School Board's having a meeting tonight,

04:27.16 – 04:28.36

and they're talking about this thing

04:28.36 – 04:30.30

about sexual books in school.

04:30.36 – 04:31.04

I'm gonna show up.

04:31.36 – 04:32.82

Justin's first thing he's gonna say to himself is,

04:33.06 – 04:34.76

I don't wanna be on an FBI watch list,

04:34.84 – 04:35.80

but he's gonna go anyway.

04:36.16 – 04:38.04

He won't be on an FBI watch list anymore,

04:38.34 – 04:39.74

because the Attorney General's gonna run

04:39.74 – 04:42.22

the Department of Justice, and we're gonna fire everyone.

04:42.60 – 04:46.24

Folks, the AG talk should be numero uno.

04:46.80 – 04:49.38

I'll leave it up to you guys on the palace intrigue

04:49.38 – 04:51.54

of who it should be, because whenever I mention a name,

04:51.64 – 04:53.28

somebody's got another name, and that's fine.

04:53.64 – 04:55.90

I'm just telling you it better damn well be a conservative,

04:56.26 – 04:58.76

and it better be someone with freaking balls

04:58.76 – 05:00.28

of absolute titanium.

05:00.72 – 05:01.88

Steel's not even good enough.

05:02.08 – 05:03.08

I don't even want steel.

05:03.28 – 05:04.24

I need titanium.

05:04.64 – 05:06.76

The balls have to be titanium at this point.

05:07.06 – 05:07.86

Steel is no good.

05:08.18 – 05:09.30

Iron, definitely no good.

05:09.70 – 05:10.14

Titanium.

05:11.10 – 05:13.92

Before I move on to another conspiracy theory defeated,

05:14.40 – 05:15.44

a couple more positions,

05:15.44 – 05:17.64

and these aren't in any specific order,

05:17.98 – 05:19.92

but these are the ones I think are really important.

05:20.36 – 05:22.18

Attorney General, number one, definitely.

05:23.14 – 05:24.80

Vice President, obviously important.

05:25.16 – 05:26.16

DHS Secretary.

05:26.52 – 05:27.84

Can't screw it up, folks.

05:28.56 – 05:32.18

CISA, that agency that was censoring conservative talk,

05:32.64 – 05:36.18

that Center for Internet Security, that was under DHS.

05:36.70 – 05:38.88

You better get a DHS Secretary in there

05:38.88 – 05:39.88

willing to clean house.

05:40.52 – 05:42.86

I've got a few names there we could consider too.

05:43.76 – 05:44.94

Secretary of Defense.

05:44.94 – 05:47.96

If you're not gonna unscrew this military disaster

05:47.96 – 05:49.92

where we're teaching a bunch of Navy SEALs

05:49.92 – 05:51.98

about ji, zhao, zho pronouns,

05:52.34 – 05:53.92

then do me a favor, don't apply.

05:54.14 – 05:55.88

We need a ball buster in there.

05:56.24 – 05:56.72

SecDef.

05:57.14 – 05:58.68

SecDef, ball buster too.

05:59.20 – 05:59.68

Titanium.

05:59.94 – 06:01.48

No steel, no iron.

06:02.18 – 06:02.66

SecDef.

06:03.20 – 06:03.68

Treasury.

06:04.04 – 06:06.66

We're gonna have to unscrew this economic disaster.

06:06.92 – 06:08.28

We're gonna need someone at Treasury

06:08.28 – 06:10.42

who understands the peril we're in economically.

06:11.10 – 06:13.00

Again, I'm not telling you the other ones aren't important.

06:13.00 – 06:14.96

These are the ones I see as the most important.

06:15.44 – 06:15.78

Energy.

06:16.16 – 06:18.42

Gotta do something about oil and gas prices.

06:18.74 – 06:21.14

Gotta do something about the natural gas export ban.

06:21.56 – 06:22.08

HHS.

06:22.36 – 06:24.32

We gotta fix the price fixing in medicine.

06:24.78 – 06:25.14

Commerce.

06:25.34 – 06:28.36

We're gonna have to unscrew the Inflation Production Act

06:28.36 – 06:31.54

and the CHIPS Act and all this stuff being run by commerce

06:31.54 – 06:33.28

because it's screwing up the whole economy.

06:33.84 – 06:34.46

And the VA.

06:34.60 – 06:35.82

We gotta take care of our vets

06:35.82 – 06:37.92

who are getting screwed over by these hospitals right now.

06:38.14 – 06:39.14

That's my take.

06:39.38 – 06:40.32

That's my story.

06:40.66 – 06:41.70

I'm sticking to it.

06:41.70 – 06:43.32

Attorney General number one.

06:44.86 – 06:47.98

We have to refocus the conversation around that position.

06:48.56 – 06:50.38

Vice President you can get rid of in a few years.

06:50.50 – 06:52.12

It's plus sides the fact if it's a tiebreaker,

06:52.42 – 06:53.96

they're always gonna vote Republican anyway.

06:54.66 – 06:55.88

More in a minute, but first.

06:56.40 – 06:58.70

Hey, have you heard of cancer-fighting foods?

06:58.74 – 07:01.34

It's been reported that diets rich in fruits and vegetables

07:01.34 – 07:03.56

may actually lower your risk of cancer.

07:03.66 – 07:05.90

Obviously something very personal to me.

07:05.98 – 07:07.60

Hopefully you hear this and run to the store

07:07.60 – 07:09.88

for five servings of fruits and vegetables every day.

07:09.94 – 07:11.32

That's what you should do.

07:11.32 – 07:13.04

And Myles will tell you that.

07:13.34 – 07:15.08

Problem is most of us don't have the time.

07:15.66 – 07:17.08

Fruits and vegetables can be perishable.

07:17.48 – 07:19.70

So I'm just telling you to try out Field of Greens

07:19.70 – 07:20.82

for your daily health regimen.

07:22.22 – 07:25.54

It's kind of my fruit and vegetable insurance.

07:26.16 – 07:26.76

Field of Greens.

07:26.92 – 07:29.04

Every vegetable and fruit was selected by the doctors

07:29.04 – 07:30.06

for study benefits.

07:30.16 – 07:32.36

What your body needs is in each scoop

07:32.36 – 07:33.46

of delicious Field of Greens.

07:33.80 – 07:35.84

It's the simplest way to get all those daily fruits

07:35.84 – 07:37.88

and vegetables and nutrition the way nature intended.

07:38.02 – 07:38.54

I love it.

07:38.90 – 07:39.82

I take it twice a day.

07:39.82 – 07:41.54

Lemon lime is my favorite.

07:42.16 – 07:42.90

Wildberry is my favorite.

07:42.98 – 07:43.96

Guy likes the lemon lime.

07:44.38 – 07:45.48

The original is great too.

07:45.94 – 07:48.32

Field of Greens, will it prevent, treat or cure cancer?

07:48.42 – 07:49.54

No, it's not going to do that.

07:49.64 – 07:52.02

These guys aren't going to smoke you up, but it's powerful.

07:52.20 – 07:53.62

And it promises that your next checkup,

07:53.68 – 07:55.34

your doctor will notice your improved wellness

07:55.34 – 07:56.18

or your money back.

07:56.42 – 07:56.88

That's right.

07:57.00 – 07:58.00

You don't love the product.

07:58.72 – 08:01.10

Brickhouse Nutrition will give you 100% money back guarantee.

08:01.22 – 08:02.22

That's how confident they are.

08:02.36 – 08:03.18

That's how confident I am.

08:03.24 – 08:06.30

I've had this product with my sponsor for a long time

08:06.30 – 08:06.80

because I love it.

08:07.32 – 08:08.78

I had a role in getting this thing developed.

You're going to love it.

08:25.30 – 08:25.80

Unbelievable.

08:26.08 – 08:28.64

Yesterday, yet another conspiracy theory,

08:28.98 – 08:30.54

conspiracy theory, air quotes,

08:30.92 – 08:33.90

goes down in flames as it's shown to be a conspiracy,

08:34.24 – 08:35.60

but yet not theoretical.

08:36.06 – 08:37.88

Guy, what's our record on conspiracy theories?

08:37.88 – 08:38.64

Is there an update?

08:40.26 – 08:43.06

He wants to say we are undefeated.

08:43.44 – 08:46.42

We are at 100% telling you something is true

08:46.42 – 08:48.10

and the left telling you it's bullshit.

08:48.58 – 08:49.44

Here is Snopes.

08:49.72 – 08:50.84

I mean, Snopes.

08:50.98 – 08:52.60

They're like to the left of PolitiFact.

08:52.88 – 08:54.66

You're not going to get any more left than Snopes.

08:55.10 – 08:57.32

Snopes makes like Mother Jones

08:57.32 – 09:00.00

look like National Review, okay?

09:00.38 – 09:00.94

Here's Snopes.

09:01.22 – 09:03.68

They had an update there, fact check,

09:03.76 – 09:05.90

on the famous or infamous, I should say,

09:05.90 – 09:07.80

Ashley Biden, who, as you know,

09:07.84 – 09:09.34

is the daughter of Joe Biden,

09:09.72 – 09:12.94

the infamous I took showers with dad diary,

09:13.06 – 09:15.08

which is pretty freaking disgusting.

09:15.68 – 09:17.74

Pretty gross, if you ask me.

09:18.08 – 09:18.92

Pretty disgusting.

09:19.00 – 09:20.12

I don't even like talking about it.

09:20.42 – 09:21.82

They had to update it with a little note.

09:22.98 – 09:24.66

On April 29th, 2024,

09:25.46 – 09:27.50

Snopes changed the rating of this fact check

09:27.50 – 09:28.98

from unproven to true,

09:29.54 – 09:32.40

based on testimony provided by Ashley Biden,

09:32.40 – 09:36.58

that it is, in fact, is her personal journal and diary.

09:36.98 – 09:38.18

Showering with dad.

09:38.52 – 09:39.94

Kind of disgusting, folks.

09:40.64 – 09:41.94

I'm just wondering here.

09:42.92 – 09:44.34

Probably wonder it too, wouldn't he?

09:47.16 – 09:49.06

You guys think there's a breaking point ever?

09:50.00 – 09:52.38

Is there a breaking point where Democrats are,

09:52.96 – 09:53.80

I mean, think about it, right?

09:53.80 – 09:55.60

With the conspiracy theories that have come true.

09:56.90 – 10:01.32

Masks, vaccines, Spygate, Hunter Biden laptop,

10:01.96 – 10:04.58

lab leak, the Nikki Haley drape story,

10:04.76 – 10:07.10

Mike Flynn called the Russian ambassador story,

10:07.52 – 10:09.56

the CIA Carter Page story.

10:09.84 – 10:13.22

Is there ever a point, the Ashley Biden diary story,

10:13.54 – 10:15.32

chat, chat guys, chat women,

10:15.58 – 10:17.74

any point at all where Democrats are like,

10:18.06 – 10:20.18

holy shit, man, this is really crazy.

10:20.44 – 10:22.50

Like they haven't told us the truth about anything.

10:22.80 – 10:24.76

And if I was listening to the Dan Bongino show,

10:25.08 – 10:26.84

I wouldn't look like a moron right now.

10:27.22 – 10:28.88

Is there a breaking point?

10:30.06 – 10:32.82

Truth be told, folks, I don't think so.

10:33.38 – 10:35.98

I'm gonna tell you, I think Democrats love being lied to.

10:36.54 – 10:37.14

I think they do.

10:37.28 – 10:39.38

I think they absolutely love being lied to

10:39.38 – 10:42.50

as long as the lie feeds into their delusions

10:42.50 – 10:43.38

about Donald Trump.

10:43.58 – 10:43.94

I do.

10:44.20 – 10:45.56

I don't think there's a breaking point.

10:45.84 – 10:47.08

I'd love to hear your take on it,

10:47.32 – 10:48.66

but I don't think there is.

10:49.16 – 10:51.74

I think they actually enjoy being lied to

10:51.74 – 10:52.90

and they don't care at all.

10:53.14 – 10:54.88

The fact that they look like morons,

10:54.94 – 10:56.38

it doesn't bother them one bit.

10:56.56 – 10:58.12

If it feeds their fix,

10:58.12 – 10:59.76

they're almost like meth addicts.

11:00.14 – 11:02.46

They know it's bad for them, but they do it anyway

11:02.46 – 11:04.30

because it just makes them feel good.

11:04.42 – 11:05.52

I really believe that's it,

11:05.98 – 11:09.46

that there's like a childlike need to be bullshitted to.

11:10.64 – 11:12.00

I mean, look at what's happening

11:12.00 – 11:14.18

in this absolute mess in court.

11:15.22 – 11:17.14

You know, I've been through federal trials

11:17.88 – 11:19.30

and I've been through local trials.

11:19.66 – 11:22.40

I have never seen a case like this in my life.

11:23.16 – 11:26.16

Trump's lawyer gets on the stand yesterday in this case.

11:26.72 – 11:29.08

And I've never seen a case in my life

11:29.08 – 11:31.52

where not only does their main witness,

11:31.66 – 11:33.08

Michael Cohen, Trump's lawyer,

11:34.22 – 11:37.72

not only does he fail to prove the elements of a crime,

11:38.64 – 11:41.42

ladies and gentlemen, he still,

11:41.92 – 11:44.40

they have not yet even alleged the crime.

11:46.12 – 11:50.72

This is so star chambery and like medieval in its appearance.

11:50.86 – 11:55.40

I'm actually stunned that even the anti-Trump lunatic judge

11:55.40 – 11:57.22

with his daughter making money off this thing

11:57.22 – 12:01.00

isn't like, I've gotta salvage my legal reputation

12:01.00 – 12:02.52

at this point and cut the losses.

12:03.40 – 12:08.34

So just again, just reassert what they're trying to claim.

12:08.96 – 12:12.82

They're claiming Donald Trump falsified a business record,

12:13.62 – 12:18.74

this NDA ledger payment in furtherance of another crime.

12:20.88 – 12:23.50

Forget the stormy bullshit, all this other stuff.

12:23.50 – 12:26.90

I just wanna get back to brass tacks, nuts and bolts here.

12:27.72 – 12:31.86

The allegation is this falsification of a business record

12:32.62 – 12:35.78

is a felony because they advanced another crime.

12:36.24 – 12:37.96

Here's the kick in the nuts, folks.

12:38.50 – 12:41.28

They have yet to allege another crime.

12:42.28 – 12:45.56

If you're asking what crime, the answer is, I don't know.

12:46.88 – 12:48.94

They're claiming it was an election violation

12:48.94 – 12:52.16

yet nobody said anything about an election violation.

12:54.74 – 12:56.64

Here's a segment from Fox yesterday.

12:56.76 – 12:59.90

Imagine this, imagine you're in court and you're a juror.

13:00.28 – 13:02.86

Assume they're Democrats, but let's assume at least

13:02.86 – 13:06.06

one of them is not totally in the tank for Biden

13:06.06 – 13:08.74

and is gonna do their actual jury duty, just one.

13:09.24 – 13:10.96

Let's hope and pray we have just one.

13:11.62 – 13:13.70

You're a juror in the courtroom listening

13:13.70 – 13:16.56

to Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen,

13:16.92 – 13:19.64

someone you're supposed to trust, someone, by the way,

13:19.92 – 13:23.12

you have specific privacy rights with,

13:23.12 – 13:25.90

delineated in our legal founding fathers

13:25.90 – 13:28.16

and the way you're entitled to legal protection

13:28.16 – 13:28.84

and due process.

13:29.24 – 13:30.84

Your conversations with your lawyer

13:30.84 – 13:32.72

are supposed to be yours.

13:32.98 – 13:34.96

They're not allowed to get them on Discovery.

13:35.36 – 13:38.64

They are privileged, attorney, client, privileged.

13:38.96 – 13:40.84

Liberals in the chat, you can look it up.

13:42.12 – 13:43.72

Imagine you're on the stand as a lawyer.

13:44.14 – 13:45.38

You're a convicted perjurer.

13:45.94 – 13:47.50

And then you watch this Fox segment.

13:48.06 – 13:50.42

Then they out in court thinking it works for them

13:50.42 – 13:53.36

that the lawyers secretly been taping the client,

13:53.52 – 13:53.94

Donald Trump.

13:54.12 – 13:56.50

And you think this makes this loser look good.

13:56.98 – 13:58.16

Watch this, check this out.

13:58.80 – 13:59.92

He was recording him.

14:00.20 – 14:01.50

We have that recording.

14:01.86 – 14:03.00

Let's listen together.

14:05.20 – 14:05.68

Correct.

14:05.96 – 14:07.42

So I'm all over that.

14:07.76 – 14:09.16

And I spoke to Alan about it.

14:09.32 – 14:11.46

When it comes time for the financing, which will be.

14:11.72 – 14:15.30

Listen, we'll have to pay you.

14:15.46 – 14:17.14

So no, no, no, no, no, no.

14:17.18 – 14:17.48

I got.

14:20.44 – 14:22.66

Andrew, that little bit that we just heard,

14:22.76 – 14:24.72

we don't have everything that was said in court,

14:24.96 – 14:25.64

but as we get.

14:27.20 – 14:28.74

Folks, can you imagine this?

14:29.00 – 14:31.14

Put yourself in the position for a moment.

14:31.28 – 14:32.90

I know we're all like knee deep in this.

14:33.28 – 14:34.48

And it's funny, you see all this

14:34.48 – 14:37.28

because cable news has to run 24 hours a day.

14:37.32 – 14:38.24

They have to fill time.

14:38.56 – 14:40.42

So you'll get a hundred different legal analysts

14:40.42 – 14:41.42

and very smart lawyers.

14:41.58 – 14:42.32

I'm not knocking them.

14:42.64 – 14:44.32

But the thing about lawyers I found,

14:44.40 – 14:45.36

I'm not knocking the lawyers.

14:45.36 – 14:47.34

This is their job is that they over lawyer thing.

14:47.52 – 14:49.24

They tend to overthink things.

14:49.62 – 14:51.14

And why is that an issue?

14:51.68 – 14:53.08

Because you got to remember folks,

14:53.18 – 14:54.82

the people in the jury outside of,

14:54.94 – 14:57.38

I think one person are not lawyers.

14:58.14 – 15:00.60

That's why no one wants lawyers in a jury.

15:02.10 – 15:03.72

People over lawyer thing.

15:03.92 – 15:06.34

You see all these legal analysts on TV

15:06.34 – 15:08.04

and a lot of them are really smart.

15:08.14 – 15:09.32

We use some of their stuff,

15:09.80 – 15:11.80

but they're not thinking about this things.

15:12.04 – 15:15.02

Like I thought about it in my experience as a non-lawyer,

15:15.02 – 15:16.38

but an investigator in these trials,

15:16.66 – 15:18.58

which is, this just sounds bad.

15:18.92 – 15:20.98

The people in the jury, if they're sane,

15:21.28 – 15:22.62

and we got to assume some of them are,

15:22.68 – 15:24.50

we got to hope, I don't know assume, but hope,

15:25.36 – 15:26.52

are listening to this going, wait,

15:26.94 – 15:29.74

this is the guy who's the bedrock of your case,

15:30.06 – 15:32.56

who we now know has lied multiple times

15:32.56 – 15:34.88

and secretly records his clients.

15:34.90 – 15:37.08

And I'm supposed to take this guy's word for it?

15:37.42 – 15:38.94

This case has been a disaster.

15:39.28 – 15:41.12

How do you think this plays

15:41.12 – 15:43.20

to the average American out there?

15:43.20 – 15:45.36

I'm gonna be following this thing the whole week,

15:45.48 – 15:48.24

but folks, I suspect between the sound bites

15:48.24 – 15:49.54

and the snapshots,

15:49.88 – 15:52.28

Donald Trump's double opportunity every day

15:52.28 – 15:53.74

to talk to the entire nation.

15:54.18 – 15:56.06

He talks in the morning outside the courtroom

15:56.06 – 15:58.08

and he talks in the afternoon.

15:58.56 – 16:00.86

One, before people go to work or in work

16:00.86 – 16:03.70

and second, during kind of drive time

16:03.70 – 16:05.58

where everyone's in front of the radio.

16:05.96 – 16:07.20

This is devastating.

16:07.32 – 16:09.42

This case has been an absolute disaster.

16:09.74 – 16:12.34

It's been a trifecta of horribles.

16:12.34 – 16:14.74

The snapshots are bad as the Republican Party

16:14.74 – 16:17.36

is now turning up in droves to support this guy.

16:17.82 – 16:19.40

The two-a-day press conferences

16:19.40 – 16:23.22

while Biden, you know, snots drip out of his nose

16:23.22 – 16:26.12

and he's peeing himself all day are freaking terrible.

16:26.46 – 16:28.22

And finally, your star witness

16:28.22 – 16:30.30

has completely melted your case down

16:30.30 – 16:33.00

and he's the most unlikable guy in the courtroom.

16:33.56 – 16:35.86

And wait, one last thing, I'm sorry,

16:36.02 – 16:39.54

but I got friends who were in the parole business,

16:39.76 – 16:40.80

probation and parole.

16:40.80 – 16:42.18

They will tell you this,

16:42.26 – 16:44.54

if you're making a parole pitch, right?

16:44.82 – 16:47.04

A pitch for parole or probation, whatever it may be,

16:47.16 – 16:48.80

and you're in prison and you want to get out

16:48.80 – 16:49.88

and go on parole, whatever it may be,

16:50.16 – 16:52.34

you better not be the last case of the day.

16:52.62 – 16:52.92

Why?

16:53.26 – 16:55.96

Because everybody's tired, they're hungry,

16:56.22 – 16:59.00

they just want to go home and most of them are pissed off.

16:59.46 – 17:00.32

Just look it up.

17:00.40 – 17:01.80

There's actual studies on this stuff.

17:02.00 – 17:04.20

If you're one of the first few cases of the day,

17:04.32 – 17:06.52

you stand a damn well better chance

17:06.52 – 17:08.70

of getting whatever you want in probation or parole,

17:08.80 – 17:09.58

whatever it may be.

17:09.58 – 17:10.30

Why?

17:10.54 – 17:11.66

Because the facts are different?

17:12.10 – 17:14.90

No, because people are just in a different mood.

17:14.92 – 17:16.44

When people are in a pissy mood

17:16.44 – 17:18.96

and they think you're a jerk like this guy came off,

17:19.34 – 17:20.76

it doesn't matter what you say.

17:20.92 – 17:22.26

It goes right out the window.

17:23.50 – 17:25.42

Look that up, you think I'm messing with you.
