Hey, it's Mark Simone. Welcome to the special weekend bonus segment for you podcast listeners out there.

This is the final week. We're just heading into Labor Day right now. Hard to believe. I don't know how this happened so fast. But anyway, we've got lots to talk about.

There's ex-Biden aides that are now talking one by one, either writing books or testifying

before this committee, the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, interviewing and grilling

occasions. That's once a year the spokesman sees him. You know, if you're in the Trump

oh, there was also one phone call. I mean, this is unheard of it.

You know, I used to say this.

You thought I was joking, but that was Joe Biden's day.

It was usually some ceremonial, take a picture with some Girl Scout troop,

and that was about it. And AIDS there will tell you that he basically was upstairs in the residence.

I wasn't kidding when I used to say this. He'd just sit there all day watching TV.
