You're listening to Bill Handle on demandfrom KFI AM six forty. You are
listening to the Bill Handle Show,and this is kfive Bill Handle. Here.
It is a Tuesday morning, Juneeleventh. Just heard that there is
(00:22):
a verdict in the Hunter Biden case. And we're only talking about a couple
of three hours of deliberation, notvery long at all, and that bodes
well for either the defense or theprosecution, depending on which way this goes.
And also I must tell you thatusually this quick is great for one
(00:46):
of those sides. This is whyI get paid the big bucks for legal
analysis. I just want to pointthat out. So as soon as we
hear what the verdict is, andI don't know there probably if the verdict
is already in, then they're calledwaiting for everybody to come up because everybody's
out having lunch or breakfast or whateverthey are. And now they started deliberating
(01:07):
at nine o'clock their time, sothey've been deliberating for a couple of hours.
Yeah, and yesterday was one hour. This went quick. Now keep
in mind, you also have toelect a foreman. You got to do
a preliminary vote, and you gotto pee because you drink a lot during
testimony, and so put all thattogether, and they deliberated about three minutes.
(01:32):
And we'll see why I can't waitfor the verdict. All right,
let's move over to Rich tomorrow TechTuesday. Rich is currently in Coopertino at
what the well they call it theApple Campus, but we call it the
Apple County. It's a big place, isn't it. It is a very
(01:53):
big place and very well maintained.They call it Apple Park. It just
opened a couple of years ago.It looks like a spaceship and it's Yeah,
if someone just plopped you there,you would never know that you're on
planet Earth. You're on planet Apple. Means a lot. You have a
lot of money. And I'll betyou they feed you while you're there,
too, don't they? They did? And of course now I take pictures
(02:14):
of all of the food that theyserve at these events. So yesterday they
had little mini brochet I say itbrichet brochet. I don't know, but
I got some some fancy let's see, what was it called chiro French toast
with cream cheese, berries and summerfruit cup and then green cleansing juice which
(02:34):
I drag out on the point.Let me interrupt you for a moment.
I want to point out that anyother interviewer would actually have you get to
the crux of the story, andI have you going down the menu.
Well, yeah, I mean Ijust heard your your expert legal analysis of
the Biden trial, So you know, hey were Okay. Now the big
story that we're going to talk about, and this is Apple. I think
(03:00):
Tim Cook announced this is Apple Intelligencefor the iPhone. I have my iPhone
right here in my hand. I'mconstantly calling up Siri. What am I
going to do to make it better? It is if everything they mentioned works,
Siri should get a lot better becausenow Siri will be able to tap
(03:23):
into all of the data on yourphone, so your emails, your text
messages, your photos, third partyapps eventually, and so you can say
something like, you know, Siri, when is my flight tomorrow? Is
it on time? Siri find thatvideo where my kid did a summersault at
the lake, and it will notonly find that video in your photo collection,
(03:46):
it will fast forward to the partwhere your kid does a summersault.
Now, this is all pretty incredible. Apple is only only Apple could do
this. But Apple calls all ofthese things AI Apple Intelligence. It's not
artificial intelligence, it's Apple intelligence.And the big thing they're pushing here,
Bill, is that this is allprivate because it happens on your device,
(04:09):
and if it needs to go tothe cloud for some more kind of uh
you know, AI computing power,they have built those servers themselves. Your
information goes there, it gets processed, it comes back to your phone,
and then it's deleted off of thoseservers instantly. It is super super private.
That's what they're trying to maintain here. Can do anything you're doing.
If yes, what's that I mean? Is it working now? It's not
(04:31):
working now? No. In fact, people that downloaded the early data,
which you know this is so thereare some caveats to this bill Number one.
To get these AI features, youwill need the latest and greatest iPhone.
So right now you will need theiPhone fifteen Pro, not just the
iPhone fifteen. And then coming upin September when this all launches, obviously
(04:54):
the new phones will support it.So what do you think that means,
Bill, That means a lot ofpeople are going to be eyeing and upgrade
specifically for this. So this isgenius. Yeah, these guys. It
doesn't stop with what Apple does.And the more they figure out a way
to charge money, the more peopleline up. It drives you crazy,
it does. But really, whenyou go to your camp, when you
(05:15):
go to the campus, you realizewhy they have so much money, because
that's telling a lot of these phones. They did build chatchibt into the iPhone,
and that was a big rumor,like are they going to have chatchybt.
The way they're handling that is,if you ask Siri something and she
can't handle it, she will say, do you want me to ask chatchy
bt? Then yeah, it willtake that data and send it to chat
(05:38):
gybt. Of course, that's thewild wild West. Apple says, look,
you know, we're going to tryto keep it private, but whatever
they do with your data, wecan't really help it. All right,
let's go ahead and take a break. I can't wait to have that in
there, Siri? Am I goingto go to prison for photo number two
six eight? That? Probably?I'm assuming they can do that, all
right? They will. It's great. Riches up in Coopertino right now at
(06:01):
the annual Apple what is it asa developers meeting? Yes, it's called
the Worldwide Developers Conference WWDC. Thisis where you know, basically the people
that create the apps for the iPhonefrom all over the world they come here
to like attend meetings and sessions andto see the keynote so they can learn
how to make better apps for allthe products they come up with up here.
(06:24):
I mean, are they full workshopswhere you have instructors showing people what
they can do with the Apple phonesor the Apple commuters? Say much?
Yeah, so, I mean itall kicks off with the keynote yesterday.
That's much more consumer focus because Appleis playing to the larger world out there
of consumers and investors and all thatstuff. But then once that happens,
(06:47):
they get down to the nitty gritty, which is actually sessions all day long
for a couple of days where ifyou're developing an app for you know,
Vision pro or the iPad or theiPhone, you can attend these sessions to
learn what the tools are that Applegives you. So if you want to
interact with this new seria that wewere talking about, you would figure out
how to make your app work withthat based on these sessions. And so
(07:10):
yeah, it's real work. Ipersonally, I go to a bunch of
sessions today that are all kind ofexplaining the new features to me in a
non techi way. But you know, so I get more more, you
know, more information about all ofthem. Yeah, I mean, I'm
assuming that a lot of it istowards media, towards people like you that
then go out and report about what'scoming up. Yeah, I mean today
(07:35):
is. But that's you know,those are separate from what the developers do.
The developers are actually learning, likethey're coming from there. Like I
met a couple of guys yesterday fromanother country. Every year I see people
from countries all over the world,and they this is like their metha.
They come here because this is it. Not only is it a fun atmosphere,
but you know, you get tosee what Apple is all about,
(07:56):
and like I said, you getto learn and if you want. You
know, people are still making appstoday that are making them overnight millionaires.
You know, although it takes along time, but you know, it's
still possible. It's still very muchpossible. Do they have like clowns and
balloon animals and things for entertainment?I did not see any clowns or balloon
(08:16):
animals, but they do have theexecutive sort of like dancing around and taking
pictures with everyone. I mean,it really is like almost like a carnival
atmosphere, all of these events.You know, Google does one, Apple
does one, Microsoft does one.I've been to all of them. They're
all slightly different, but it's thesame thing. It's a bunch of very
smart people that are creating the appsthat we love on our phone. And
(08:41):
by the way, Build there's alot of news too that they announced about,
you know, other than the featuresfor AI, they did announce a
bunch of stuff that will come toall iPhones. Let me talk about some
of those features. Yeah, numberone, this is called iOS eighteen.
Okay, so that's the next versionof the Softworks coming out in the fall.
It will support the iPhone ten Rand up plus the iPhone SC two
(09:05):
that's the last phone with the homebutton. But the big news here is
that you can place your apps anywhereon the home screen. I know it
sounds silly to Android users, butit's a big deal for iPhone users.
You can hide apps, so youcan not only require a passcode to unlock
a certain app, you can alsojust put these apps in a hidden folder.
So cheating is about to take abig uptick because people won't even be
(09:28):
able to see that these apps areon your phone in any way, shape
or form. Only you can dedicatedpasswords apps, you can manage all your
passwords. This is interesting. Messagingover satellite, So now if you're trying
to send a text message and there'sno Wi Fi and there's no cellular service,
it will reach straight up into thosesatellite thousands of miles into outer space
(09:50):
and send your text message that ison the iPhone fourteen and above. And
finally, if you have that wholeAndroid versus iPhone mess situation where if you're
an Android person and you get amessage from an iPhone user like a photo
or a video, and it lookslike a thumbnail and it looks horrible.
That is all going to be fixedcome September, messaging between iPhone and Android
(10:13):
will finally be okay. Other thanthem coming out with a new case.
Is there anything out there that's beingintroduced that doesn't have AI connected. No,
pretty much. Everything they mentioned yesterdayis even if they didn't mention AI
in the feature, it is stillpowered by AI on the back end,
but Apple's been using AI for along time, so is Google, so
(10:35):
is Microsoft. No one branded itAI until now, because that's the buzzword,
and that's what people want to hear. They want to know that their
phone is smarter than them and itcan do things without a lot of effort,
and I think that's the next generationof these smartphones. It does seem
to be happening, for sure.Hey one quick one. You know about
as much as anybody I know aboutthis stuff. Are you at all concerned?
(10:58):
Are you frightened of AI? I'mnot personally frightened by AI. I
think that it has a lot ofimplications in our society, in our world
for learning for people, But I'mnot frightened by it because we're human at
the end of the day, we'restill in control. I don't think that
AI is going to come and murderus in the middle of our sleep.
(11:18):
But there are very there are implicationsof how people will use AI, how
it's going to be used to scampeople and hurt people, and so,
yes, I am concerned about thosethings, but I'm not scared of AI.
Yeah, well, yeah, Iwasn't going into the will Smith version
of AI, where you know,robots are going to kill us, but
(11:39):
just the implications the scary part ofit, as you described, man,
even though we're people, people betterways of doing everything, including all the
negative aspects of humanity, you're goingto be reaching incredible levels. One hundred
percent. I'm already seeing it,Bill, I'm already seeing Just yesterday on
my Facebook page, I posted somethingand the scam artist are now using AI
(12:01):
to write the comments that are personalizedtowards the people that are commenting on your
Facebook page. So it not onlydoes it look like it's you, but
they're using AI to make sure thatthey're writing stuff that's appropriate based on what
you posted about. That is justnext level. I have not seen that
before, and it's just one simpleway that we are. You know,
we really need to be on guardfrom now on with this AI stuff.
(12:22):
All right, Rich, thank youthis Saturday, eleven am to two on
Instagram at rich on tech website,richon tech dot TV. We'll catch you
next week. Rich. You havea good one. Thanks Bill. Okay.
A few moments ago, as Amyreported, the jury did come back
in the Hunter Biden trial guilty acrossthe board all three counts, and they
(12:46):
deliberated for about thirty five minutes.Actually they deliberated for three hours, which
is lightning fast, by the way, I mean, it's almost almost is.
They walked in the jury room,they took a vote, walked out,
and it is done. Because rememberwhen they walk in the jury room,
a jury foreman has to be selectedpreliminary vote. I don't even know
(13:09):
if they went over the evidence.I think the jury foreman said let's take
a preliminary vote, and every handwent up saying guilty, which, by
the way, is not the waya jury should act. So a couple
of things about this, because there'sall kinds of political aspects of this.
(13:31):
This goes across many different levels.First of all, historically, all right,
it was Donald Trump that had allof the history with his trial,
with his conviction. There's history onthis side too. This is the son
of a sitting president as opposed toa former president being tried. It's not
(13:52):
quite the same, obviously, butthere is a his sport historical spin to
this, And I gotta tell you, we're sitting a lot of history and
a couple of things. On theday of the trial, on June third,
the President said he loved his sonwas proud of him, didn't declare
his innocence, didn't say he wasguilty, you'll be vindicated. He just
simply said, I'm proud of myson. He supports him, and his
(14:13):
mom, Jill, was there everyday of the trial showing support as well
as the rest of his family.So what's the big one. He's been
convicted of three felonies and it hasto do with lying on that application.
He buys a gun and every gundealer in the country has the purchaser fill
(14:37):
out a form and it asks rightthere on the form number one, are
you a felon? Okay? Andthen a bunch of other ones, are
you currently using? Are you usingdrugs of any kind? And he said
no, And the jury was persuadedthat no means yes in his case,
(15:01):
that he simply lied about it.Three felony counts tied to possession of a
gun while using narcotics. And thisactually has to do with his application,
his federal gun application asking are youusing drugs? Are you a drug user?
And he puts down the big no, Nope. Well, the evidence
(15:26):
was fairly overwhelming and I'm going tothrow something at you that you're going to
go of course, he was usingdrugs because he admitted it. I mean,
he pled, not guilty, butthere's his admission all over the place.
Two of the counts carry maximum prisonsentences of ten years. One is
five years. So if they runconcurrently or they run consecutively, which sometimes
(15:48):
happened one after another. Rare,but it does happen, then he theoretically,
if you look at the max,could be given twenty five years in
prison. Is that going on?Happen of course, not not even close.
Now, what makes this story?Two things I want to share about
this story, and that is heoriginally had a plea deal going on,
(16:12):
and the federal judge who was presidingwouldn't let it go through the defense.
His defense and the prosecutors had cuta deal and the gun charge was going
to be dismissed, disposed as partof a plea deal with a special counsel's
office. Last year, Biden wouldhave been sentenced to six months probation for
(16:37):
pleading guilty to tax charges nothing todo with the gun. The gun charges
would have been dismissed in two yearsif Biden. If Biden was able to
live up to the agreement, whichof course he would have and so that
the judge said no, thank you, because it had to do with the
concerns about the scope that plea deal. That was when the judge turned it
(17:03):
down, which means everything's off thetable. He submits a statement of fact,
because that is part of a pleadeal. You have to state the
facts, and he acknowledges in thatstatement of facts he was a user of
an addicted to crack cocaine at thetime of the gun sale. Wait a
(17:27):
minute, I mean that's all thejury has to hear. He's admitted.
It's on the record. He didin front of a judge's under penalty of
perjury, admitted using drugs. Jurycouldn't hear that. Jury was not allowed
to hear that at all. Whybecause it's a rejected plea agreement and you
(17:48):
go back to where you were,and any statement of fact, anything doing
that going on in that plea agreementwhich has been rejected or withdrawn, which
also under certain stand circumstances can bedone that all disappears cannot be used.
So the jury was never able tohear that. However, there was a
(18:10):
lot of compelling evidence, a lotof compelling evidence that made this thing happen.
I mean, there were texts thathe had with his ex girlfriend,
who happened to be married to hisbrother Bo. They had an affair afterwards.
I mean, it's pretty sleazy,there's no question about it. And
he had texted and there was recordsof him doing He said, I am
(18:32):
cocaine, cocaine. I've been usingcocaine. Two days afterwards, so he
texted her, I'm in a carsmoking crack. I mean, it just
went on and on. So itbecame insurmountable, and the defense came up
with some it doesn't say specifically atthat moment he wasn't using crack and he's
on alcohol, and I mean,no one bought that. No one bought
that. Now, the politics politicsof this thing is absolutely extraordinary. This
(18:57):
is Joe Biden's son. This isthe federal case. President has complete jurisdiction
over this, can pardon his son. And he was asked by David Muir,
are you going to is it onthe table that you're going to pardon
your son? He goes, absolutelynot. Joe Biden will not touch this.
(19:18):
Now, let's go level two onthe politics of it. The argument
that the Department of Justice has beenweaponized to go after Donald Trump and others.
You know what, that's going tobe harder to make because you've weaponized
the Department of Justice. Well,guess what, the Department of Justice just
prosecuted your son and they got aguilty verdict and the President isn't going to
(19:44):
pardon him. What do you dowith that? Politically? Do you still
argue that it's a weaponized Department ofJustice system? Except in this case?
But this is an aberration that actuallyargues against those who are arguing that it's
a weaponization and Department of justice.This is the fallout. Are we gonna
see him go to prison? AndI don't think so. I don't think
(20:07):
so, just like Donald Trump,we are we're gonna see him go to
prison. No, And by theway, if Donald Trump doesn't go to
prison, there's no chance Biden will. And if Biden doesn't go, there's
no chance Donald Trump will. BecauseDonald Trump, what he did and what
was convicted of is not at issueat all in terms of violence or danger.
(20:30):
I mean, Biden getting a gunwhile he was a coke addict.
You can argue that is a dangeroussituation. There is no question there's a
safety issue here, not with DonaldTrump. I mean that was a straight
out white collar crime. All right, guys, we're done. We'll see
what happens. I just can't waitas this same plays out. All right,
(20:52):
coming up, I'm taking phone callsoff the air, and we do
you be using that for future broadcast. Handle on the law, No breaks,
I just zip through them really quicklyas you can imagine. And then
I've known's mister patience, So youknow how long I'm going to stay on
the phone with you. The numberis eight seven seven five two zero eleven

It is a Tuesday morning, Juneeleventh. Just heard that there is
(00:22):
a verdict in the Hunter Biden case. And we're only talking about a couple
of three hours of deliberation, notvery long at all, and that bodes
well for either the defense or theprosecution, depending on which way this goes.
And also I must tell you thatusually this quick is great for one
(00:46):
of those sides. This is whyI get paid the big bucks for legal
analysis. I just want to pointthat out. So as soon as we
hear what the verdict is, andI don't know there probably if the verdict

all slightly different, but it's thesame thing. It's a bunch of very
smart people that are creating the appsthat we love on our phone. And
(08:41):
by the way, Build there's alot of news too that they announced about,
you know, other than the featuresfor AI, they did announce a
bunch of stuff that will come toall iPhones. Let me talk about some
of those features. Yeah, numberone, this is called iOS eighteen.
Okay, so that's the next versionof the Softworks coming out in the fall.
It will support the iPhone ten Rand up plus the iPhone SC two
(09:05):
that's the last phone with the homebutton. But the big news here is
that you can place your apps anywhereon the home screen. I know it
sounds silly to Android users, butit's a big deal for iPhone users.
You can hide apps, so youcan not only require a passcode to unlock
a certain app, you can alsojust put these apps in a hidden folder.
So cheating is about to take abig uptick because people won't even be
(09:28):
able to see that these apps areon your phone in any way, shape
or form. Only you can dedicatedpasswords apps, you can manage all your
passwords. This is interesting. Messagingover satellite, So now if you're trying
to send a text message and there'sno Wi Fi and there's no cellular service,
it will reach straight up into thosesatellite thousands of miles into outer space
(09:50):
and send your text message that ison the iPhone fourteen and above. And
finally, if you have that wholeAndroid versus iPhone mess situation where if you're
an Android person and you get amessage from an iPhone user like a photo
or a video, and it lookslike a thumbnail and it looks horrible.
That is all going to be fixedcome September, messaging between iPhone and Android
(10:13):
will finally be okay. Other thanthem coming out with a new case.
Is there anything out there that's beingintroduced that doesn't have AI connected. No,
pretty much. Everything they mentioned yesterdayis even if they didn't mention AI
in the feature, it is stillpowered by AI on the back end,
but Apple's been using AI for along time, so is Google, so
(10:35):
is Microsoft. No one branded itAI until now, because that's the buzzword,
and that's what people want to hear. They want to know that their
phone is smarter than them and itcan do things without a lot of effort,
and I think that's the next generationof these smartphones. It does seem
to be happening, for sure.Hey one quick one. You know about
as much as anybody I know aboutthis stuff. Are you at all concerned?
(10:58):
Are you frightened of AI? I'mnot personally frightened by AI. I
think that it has a lot ofimplications in our society, in our world
for learning for people, But I'mnot frightened by it because we're human at
the end of the day, we'restill in control. I don't think that
AI is going to come and murderus in the middle of our sleep.
(11:18):
But there are very there are implicationsof how people will use AI, how
it's going to be used to scampeople and hurt people, and so,
yes, I am concerned about thosethings, but I'm not scared of AI.
Yeah, well, yeah, Iwasn't going into the will Smith version
of AI, where you know,robots are going to kill us, but
(11:39):
just the implications the scary part ofit, as you described, man,
even though we're people, people betterways of doing everything, including all the
negative aspects of humanity, you're goingto be reaching incredible levels. One hundred
percent. I'm already seeing it,Bill, I'm already seeing Just yesterday on
my Facebook page, I posted somethingand the scam artist are now using AI
(12:01):
to write the comments that are personalizedtowards the people that are commenting on your
Facebook page. So it not onlydoes it look like it's you, but
they're using AI to make sure thatthey're writing stuff that's appropriate based on what
you posted about. That is justnext level. I have not seen that
before, and it's just one simpleway that we are. You know,
we really need to be on guardfrom now on with this AI stuff.
(12:22):
All right, Rich, thank youthis Saturday, eleven am to two on
Instagram at rich on tech website,richon tech dot TV. We'll catch you
next week. Rich. You havea good one. Thanks Bill. Okay.
A few moments ago, as Amyreported, the jury did come back
in the Hunter Biden trial guilty acrossthe board all three counts, and they
(12:46):
deliberated for about thirty five minutes.Actually they deliberated for three hours, which
is lightning fast, by the way, I mean, it's almost almost is.
They walked in the jury room,they took a vote, walked out,
and it is done. Because rememberwhen they walk in the jury room,
a jury foreman has to be selectedpreliminary vote. I don't even know
(13:09):
if they went over the evidence.I think the jury foreman said let's take
a preliminary vote, and every handwent up saying guilty, which, by
the way, is not the waya jury should act. So a couple
of things about this, because there'sall kinds of political aspects of this.
(13:31):
This goes across many different levels.First of all, historically, all right,
it was Donald Trump that had allof the history with his trial,
with his conviction. There's history onthis side too. This is the son
of a sitting president as opposed toa former president being tried. It's not
(13:52):
quite the same, obviously, butthere is a his sport historical spin to
this, And I gotta tell you, we're sitting a lot of history and
a couple of things. On theday of the trial, on June third,
the President said he loved his sonwas proud of him, didn't declare
his innocence, didn't say he wasguilty, you'll be vindicated. He just
simply said, I'm proud of myson. He supports him, and his
(14:13):
mom, Jill, was there everyday of the trial showing support as well
as the rest of his family.So what's the big one. He's been
convicted of three felonies and it hasto do with lying on that application.
He buys a gun and every gundealer in the country has the purchaser fill
(14:37):
out a form and it asks rightthere on the form number one, are
you a felon? Okay? Andthen a bunch of other ones, are
you currently using? Are you usingdrugs of any kind? And he said
no, And the jury was persuadedthat no means yes in his case,
(15:01):
that he simply lied about it.Three felony counts tied to possession of a
gun while using narcotics. And thisactually has to do with his application,
his federal gun application asking are youusing drugs? Are you a drug user?
And he puts down the big no, Nope. Well, the evidence
(15:26):
was fairly overwhelming and I'm going tothrow something at you that you're going to
go of course, he was usingdrugs because he admitted it. I mean,
he pled, not guilty, butthere's his admission all over the place.
Two of the counts carry maximum prisonsentences of ten years. One is
five years. So if they runconcurrently or they run consecutively, which sometimes
(15:48):
happened one after another. Rare,but it does happen, then he theoretically,
if you look at the max,could be given twenty five years in
prison. Is that going on?Happen of course, not not even close.
Now, what makes this story?Two things I want to share about
this story, and that is heoriginally had a plea deal going on,
(16:12):
and the federal judge who was presidingwouldn't let it go through the defense.
His defense and the prosecutors had cuta deal and the gun charge was going
to be dismissed, disposed as partof a plea deal with a special counsel's
office. Last year, Biden wouldhave been sentenced to six months probation for
(16:37):
pleading guilty to tax charges nothing todo with the gun. The gun charges
would have been dismissed in two yearsif Biden. If Biden was able to
live up to the agreement, whichof course he would have and so that
the judge said no, thank you, because it had to do with the
concerns about the scope that plea deal. That was when the judge turned it
(17:03):
down, which means everything's off thetable. He submits a statement of fact,
because that is part of a pleadeal. You have to state the
facts, and he acknowledges in thatstatement of facts he was a user of
an addicted to crack cocaine at thetime of the gun sale. Wait a
(17:27):
minute, I mean that's all thejury has to hear. He's admitted.
It's on the record. He didin front of a judge's under penalty of
perjury, admitted using drugs. Jurycouldn't hear that. Jury was not allowed
to hear that at all. Whybecause it's a rejected plea agreement and you
(17:48):
go back to where you were,and any statement of fact, anything doing
that going on in that plea agreementwhich has been rejected or withdrawn, which
also under certain stand circumstances can bedone that all disappears cannot be used.
So the jury was never able tohear that. However, there was a
(18:10):
lot of compelling evidence, a lotof compelling evidence that made this thing happen.
I mean, there were texts thathe had with his ex girlfriend,
who happened to be married to hisbrother Bo. They had an affair afterwards.
I mean, it's pretty sleazy,there's no question about it. And
he had texted and there was recordsof him doing He said, I am
(18:32):
cocaine, cocaine. I've been usingcocaine. Two days afterwards, so he
texted her, I'm in a carsmoking crack. I mean, it just
went on and on. So itbecame insurmountable, and the defense came up
with some it doesn't say specifically atthat moment he wasn't using crack and he's
on alcohol, and I mean,no one bought that. No one bought
that. Now, the politics politicsof this thing is absolutely extraordinary. This
(18:57):
is Joe Biden's son. This isthe federal case. President has complete jurisdiction
over this, can pardon his son. And he was asked by David Muir,
are you going to is it onthe table that you're going to pardon
your son? He goes, absolutelynot. Joe Biden will not touch this.
(19:18):
Now, let's go level two onthe politics of it. The argument
that the Department of Justice has beenweaponized to go after Donald Trump and others.
You know what, that's going tobe harder to make because you've weaponized
the Department of Justice. Well,guess what, the Department of Justice just
prosecuted your son and they got aguilty verdict and the President isn't going to
(19:44):
pardon him. What do you dowith that? Politically? Do you still
argue that it's a weaponized Department ofJustice system? Except in this case?
But this is an aberration that actuallyargues against those who are arguing that it's
a weaponization and Department of justice.This is the fallout. Are we gonna
see him go to prison? AndI don't think so. I don't think
(20:07):
so, just like Donald Trump,we are we're gonna see him go to
prison. No, And by theway, if Donald Trump doesn't go to
prison, there's no chance Biden will. And if Biden doesn't go, there's
no chance Donald Trump will. BecauseDonald Trump, what he did and what
was convicted of is not at issueat all in terms of violence or danger.
(20:30):
I mean, Biden getting a gunwhile he was a coke addict.
You can argue that is a dangeroussituation. There is no question there's a
safety issue here, not with DonaldTrump. I mean that was a straight
out white collar crime. All right, guys, we're done. We'll see
what happens. I just can't waitas this same plays out. All right,
(20:52):
coming up, I'm taking phone callsoff the air, and we do
you be using that for future broadcast. Handle on the law, No breaks,
I just zip through them really quicklyas you can imagine. And then
I've known's mister patience, So youknow how long I'm going to stay on
