(00:01):
Life. It's stop and go.Well, just go talk. Keep up
with our steady flow of updates.To continue onward Ryde with news Radio seven
boy ktrh Okay, five point fiftytwo. Now let's talk more about the
Hunter Biden trial and the verdict toguilty on three federal or excuse me on
felony counts. Legal analyst done andBiles joins us now to break it down

(00:22):
don him, good morning, Goodmorning. Okay, So, I think
the first question a lot of peoplehave is is he going to see the
inside of a jail cell? Itlooks doubtful to me, But what say
you? I agree with you.I think it's relatively doubtful. The judge
has plenty of discretion on this,but I think the guidelines would generally say

(00:43):
somewhere around six months to maybe twentyone months. But there are lots of
room for the judge to come downon that. Nikad just given probation,
couldn't they Yes, here you mightbe able to tell. I think that's
wherever. I just how convenient thatthis was a gun case for the people

(01:04):
who are anti gun right, thegun control crowd, and how convenient that
they can now stand even in Delawarewith the first lady in the jury room,
justice was done. What kind ofjustice is this for them to finally
bring him to count when all thiswas known back in twenty twenty and the
laptop from Hell as it was called, was portrayed as being Russian disinformation.

(01:30):
Nothing's ever happened to those people whopush that little prank. No, it
seems like nobody who pushes these pranksfrom the left ever has any repercussions for
their laws, whether it's the dossierfrom the Clinton campaign or what have you.

(01:51):
It's unfortunate times where they didn't whereit seems like one side can get
away with whatever they want to yeahdone. Many people feel like in legal
analysts that I've heard and read overthe last twenty four hours have said it
would have been better for Trump hadhe actually been acquitted, had Hunter Biden
been acquitted, because it would haveshown the two tiered system of justice.
Now they can run around claiming,see, no one is above the law,
not the president's son nor the formerpresident. Therefore all of the other

(02:15):
cases against him are legitimate. Sure, that's true, and that is exactly
what they will do. But ina Hunter Biden's case, it couldn't be
more clear that he was guilty.You have the text messages saying that he's
about to go buy some crack fromMookie at the convenience store. You have
his ex wives, et cetera,all testifying there's no doubt about his violation

(02:38):
of those statutes. In Trump's case, I guess people can disagree VI Jerry
apparently did, but I think it'swell, I don't think he committed the
crime. Yeah, I don't thinkhe committed any crime. And the sad
thing is his sentencing is coming upJuly eleventh. How does this verdict effect
Jan Murshawan, I mean talking aboutputting away Donald Trump for a crime he

(03:01):
didn't commit, and it was bookkeepingto begin with. I mean for one
hundred and fifty years, and theykeep telling, well, Hunter faces twenty
five years. I mean, howdoes this case affect the sentencing of Donald
Trump? Well, it doesn't,it does, It shouldn't, and I
assume it will not. But butthe truth is, yes, they throw

(03:23):
around the numbers because people like togo find what is the maximum possible.
There's no way a hunter Biden's lookingat twenty five and there's presumably no way
that Trump's looking at one hundred andfifty. In fact, I don't know,
but it seems reasonably probable that Trumpwill see you jail time either.
It may be helpful don him rightif he does, because you remember how

(03:45):
he's skyrocketed in the polls after themugshot. Now get a picture of him
behind bars and watching. Oh yeah, people are outraged over that enough to
support him. Yeah, no,it would be It's probably actually great for
his political campaign for justice, butprobably good for his campaign. But it

(04:06):
will be interesting you mentioned earlier aboutthe Second Amendment. It will be interesting
that Biden's eventually going to defend himselfon the Second Amendment. He's eventually they're
going to argue, of course,that the Statsu's unconstitutional because the Second Amendment
allows you to have a gun,whether you're a drug addict or not.
So this will be interesting when thepeople who are for gun control start arguing

(04:27):
against their own positions just to gettry to get Hunter off. Well,
nothing more is greater proof that thisis all political, because we've spent most
of this morning talking about trials,criminal trials, and it's all politics.
Yeah, it is. It's ashame that we have these things. I
mean, there was I think oncea time where where nobody would have prosecuted

(04:50):
Trump, but now it seems tobe that the left is whatever it takes
to win bar all principles doesn't matterwhen seams power. Very worried about your
intro there. I didn't before theintro, I had not heard by talking
about it. In order for peopleto defend themselves against tyranny, they would

(05:13):
need F fifteen's. Uh, that'suh yeah, that's been one of his
go to lines, trying to underminethe second of memorights of people who say
that it's our right to protect ourselvesagainst government if need be. And he's
he's always talked about how the government'sgot way more firepower than you do,
so why do you even bother?That's it. That's just one of his
things. I've bet the British notthe same, uh kind of our revolution

(05:35):
exactly, and that's why it waswritten the way that it was. You're
exactly right. Legal analysts done andbiles done. Thanks for the analysis.
We appreciate it. Thank you.Have a great morning. Five point fifty
