Summary

It's Affidavit Day! Clay and Buck continue to break down the heavily redacted Mar-a-Largo affidavit. AG Merrick Garland has painted himself into a ridiculous corner. Why did it take 18 months for the National Archives to call for these documents? Buck says, "I never thought of the National Archives once when I was in the CIA," and he tells Clay that Clay is the only person he ever met who made a point of hanging out in the National Archives. Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson joins C&B to react to the heavily blacked-out affidavit and on his letter to DOJ revealing new FBI whistleblower allegations in the Hunter Biden investigation. You'd have to be crazy to charge Trump over these documents.

0:00.0	Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Podcast.
0:04.8	Welcome back in Clay Travis, Buck Sexton Show. We are breaking down here on this Friday edition
0:11.2	of the program, the just released redacted affidavit to justify the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago.
0:19.9	I would say 50 to 60 percent of this document is completely blacked out. We are discussing the
0:24.8	parts of the document that we can see. Buck based on everything that I am reading, and again,
0:31.8	this has just come down in the last 20 or 30 minutes, so we're reacting in real time to it.
0:37.0	This effectively is, we talked about, Merit Garland being painted into a corner.
0:43.6	There is no dispute that I have seen that Donald Trump had access to all of these documents
0:50.4	legally when he was president of the United States. The dispute now seems to be,
0:56.8	did he have the ability to keep these documents? If not, was his keeping of these documents such a
1:04.4	significant deal that there can be criminal charges brought against him? Absent, Buck. Absent
1:11.7	any suggestion or evidence that Trump was somehow trying to sell these documents or that there was
1:19.9	in some way a threat of him, basically committing espionage, right? Like, hey, oh, Saudi Arabia,
1:29.0	do you want to see what the new fighter jet looks like? Give me $500 million, and I'll give you
1:33.9	those documents. Absent, something like that happening, which so far there is zero evidence of.
1:38.8	I think it would have already been leaked to the New York Times or the Washington Post's friendly
1:45.2	media to the Biden administration. Merit Garland is faced with a ridiculous choice that he has put
1:51.7	himself in, which is either acknowledged that ultimately we got these documents back. There's no
1:57.9	issue. We think maybe there were crimes committed over storage, but we're just going to move on.
2:03.6	Or he's going to charge Donald Trump with improperly storing government documents,
2:09.2	which to me would be a complete political gift to President Trump, because it would confirm in
2:17.6	many of our minds what we already suspect, which is there has been a rig job designed to try to
