CLAY: I want to make this clear with what happened in Cincinnati where someone who was deranged attacked the FBI office in Cincinnati. He was killed. I want to make this clear to everyone out there: Don’t. Go. Crazy. I just laid out the whole hour to open here everything that I think is wrong about what the FBI and the Department of Justice has done associated with their investigation of Mar-a-Lago, with why I believe Merrick Garland who personally approved this raid should have to recuse himself.
All of that is very germane to the discussions that we are having right now in our country. But do not behave in a violent fashion. As frustrated and as angry as you might be with the FBI, they are looking for someone or some people to scapegoat and turn into evidence of why they have to be conducting aggressive investigations into Trump supporters. They’re already doing it over January 6th.
We’re gonna talk with Julie Kelly in the next hour about the fact that there’s still being people held in solitary confinement over January 6th and that they almost have not been able to interact with anyone, even attorneys, for year and a half now. And so they are looking constantly for people to scapegoat as Trump deplorables who can’t be trusted. They want to deploy as much counter-intel against domestic terrorists that they possibly can.
Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray — the director of the FBI, and the attorney general — are putting out statements constantly saying that their FBI agents are the greatest and the most fair and they would never do anything improper. You and I know that’s not true. They investigated parents who were speaking out against their kids wearing masks at school boards, people like me, as domestic terrorists.
And so now you want me to believe that the FBI, which we have caught in lies associated with the Russia collusion investigation…? We caught ’em lying in FISA warrants. You want me to believe that this process, this raid of Mar-a-Lago was not political in any way when you’ve previously been called lying in an effort to go after Donald Trump? And when you have been investigating parents who speak out at school board meetings?
You want me to believe that you’ve got my best interests at heart in I’m sorry. The FBI has sold its ability to be considered fair and impartial. When you got Hunter Biden flying across the country to board Air Force One and the FBI has had his laptop for over two years? Buck, I think, sent a tweet — I saw it earlier — while hanging out on the beach. It said:
The FBI hasn’t been able to figure out what’s going on with Hunter Biden’s laptop. They’ve had it for over two years. Multiple felonies. I am not an expert in FBI investigations, but just based on what I have seen on Hunter Biden’s laptop, there’s multiple felonies. Merrick Garland comes out and says they’re gonna apply the law evenly and without regard for what is involved? And, meanwhile, you got Hunter Biden flying across the country to board Air Force One and going on a family vacation down in South Carolina? I’m sorry if I’m raising maybe a red flag here and saying, “Ahhh, I don’t know that I trust the FBI right now to be fairly and impartially imparting justice upon this country.”
