Welcome to the Pod Force One podcast. I'm Miranda Devine and today we're at Mar-A-Lago with Eric Trump,

who's just written a new book Under Siege.

Eric Trump, thank you so much for joining Pod-Force One.

Welcome to Mar-a-Lago. Yes. Good to have you.

How exciting to be here. It's such a beautiful building.

And every time I come here, though, I can't forget the invasion by the FBI with that FBI raid that happened.

It seems like a bad memory now, but do you still think about it?

Yeah, I do.

Listen, you know about Biden corruption better than anybody. I remember getting calls about 8 o'clock in the morning, and I got a call from one of my team members, and they say there's 30 FBI agents with a search warrant. And I go, what are they doing at Mar-a-Lago? I was totally confused. No, they're coming in. they have a search warrant for Mar-a-Lago. They want to, and I'm saying they're saying, on behalf of who?

On behalf of Nara, you know, confused. No, they're coming in. They have a search warrant for Mar-a-Lago. They want to, and I'm saying they're

saying, on behalf of who? On behalf of NARA in a national archives, and I go, give me a break. Like, yeah. Does anybody actually believe that Nara is authorizing the FBI to raid a former president's home? Because if you believe that, I think you're living in outer space, right? Like, Like I live and I go, this is this happening because Biden's not doing well anything.

His economy was terrible.

Inflation was terrible. that, I think you're living in outer space, right? Like, I, like, I live. And I go, this is this happening

because Biden's not doing well in anything. His economy was terrible. Inflation was terrible. His response COVID was terrible. You know, I mean, the guy couldn't make it through a sentence without stumbling, right? He obviously had all the problems. Many of them, frankly, derived from you with, you know, the laptop from hell story.

But also he was a hateful person and he really hated your father.

Of course he did.

And that's why the National Archives happened to, and I'll never forget, they were yelling in the phone, turn off all security cameras. I want all, so each of these rooms have security cameras, right? And obviously the patio is, it's a commercial property and it's one of the most famous properties in the world. And I go, not turning off our security cameras I am not turning off our security cameras the FBI was demanding and sure enough you know it takes two and a half years but eileen cannon the judge on the case and they ended up admitting to her that they were planting classified folders in my father's office and you know take the photos well I mean you know they were fanned out perfectly they're It's just fanned out perfectly on the floor and like, you know, on this beautiful carpet. Like, my father's going to fan out classified, like give me a break. They brought those classified folders in, didn't they? And you know what they did? And they leaked them to the media and wanted that picture all around the world. I'll never forget. I asked my team, I go, does my father know? and everybody just went silent. I go, I'll call him right now.

He goes, honey, meet me in my office.

We were in New York at the time.

And I met him.

And that's when he put out that tweet, which is, you know, the FBI is raiding the famous Mar-a-law go, I can't believe this. This is an invasion of our home. this is the greatest weaponization of government

and the history of our country.
