Summary
David X. Sullivan, former Assistant United States Attorney, discusses the odd nature of the Hunter Biden criminal case and the optics arising out of it. Sullivan comments that looking through the case, for ‘people that claim that there are two tiers of justice in this country, nothing could be more compelling than looking at the Hunter Biden criminal case.’ Saying, that what Hunter Biden was afforded of pleading to misdemeanor charges “is a hand slap,” that in his 30 years of working at the U.S. Attorney’s office in the district of Connecticut he “saw one and only one case, criminally, in which someone was afforded the opportunity to plead guilty to a misdemeanor tax offense, one in 30 years.”

| 0:00.0 | Hello America and happy Friday. What a busy week it's been for a holiday week. As we celebrate |
| 0:12.4 | it at 247th birthday in America, that's an important moment. But so many regulatory court |
| 0:19.2 | cases and other things breaking around us. And of course new investigative things going |
| 0:23.8 | on. In fact, just a little while ago, we broke the story on just the news. House oversight |
| 0:27.7 | committee chairman James Comer has decided to open a formal congressional investigation into |
| 0:33.2 | the discovery of cocaine at the White House and the response to it. Because there seems |
| 0:37.7 | to be a lot of concern that there's a lot of slow walking of the response for something |
| 0:42.3 | that would seem to be a eminently solvable crime if there was a crime committed. So there |
| 0:47.8 | is a lot going on on that front and on like a lot of people are talking about that in great |
| 0:53.9 | detail. We're going to talk a lot about law enforcement, the state of law enforcement, |
| 0:58.1 | the treatment of Hunter Biden, his tax case. Is it a sweetheart deal? Is it a reasonable |
| 1:04.2 | deal given the facts? Were there shenanigans? What do we make of the whistleblowers? We've |
| 1:09.0 | got an incredible first guess for us. David X Sullivan. David Sullivan is one of the most |
| 1:14.2 | accomplished federal prosecutors to come ever ever to come out of New England. White |
| 1:17.9 | collar tax, couraud cases, decades in the US government, highly respected, later ran |
| 1:22.9 | for Congress. He now is a member of a very prominent law firm, but one of the real true federal |
| 1:27.9 | prosecutor experts who practice prosecution the way it used to be practiced before the |
| 1:32.7 | politicization and weaponization of certain investigations, not all of them, but there |
| 1:36.9 | are certain ones that clearly have happened. Well, David's going to join us at the top of |
| 1:40.4 | the show. We're going to talk about Hunter Biden. We're going to talk about the cocaine |
| 1:43.1 | discovery. We're going to talk about so much more. And then we'll go to an unbelievable |
