BIDEN: There’s nothing to any of that. Nothing to any of that! It’s all a smear. (sputters) Every major outfit — every serious investigator — has pointed out that this is a smear. There’s overwhelming evidence from (sputters) the intelligence community that the Russians are engaged! Listen, my son’s an honorable man. Every one of the major people who work for Trump during the impeachment went under oath, and under oath said, “Biden did his job! No law was broke!” Biden — this Biden — did his job. Hunter Biden broke no laws.

BUCK: That was right, right before the election in 2020, just so everyone knows. That was then-candidate Joe Biden, and I think it’s important for us to just say it because it’s the truth. There’s a lot of things these days you can’t say even though they’re the truth. Here’s a thing that’s the truth, Clay: Joe Biden is a liar. All the talk about him being a cuddly old grandpa? He’s a liar, big old liar.

CLAY: Totally. And so were a lot of media. To me, the story is that Joe Biden would lie to protect his drug-addicted, I believe, felonious-behaving son does not surprise me. The fact that the media would all carry water and allow this entire argument to exist? We played all the media that agreed with this allegation being a falsehood. I’m more disgusted with the media than I am with Biden. I’m not surprised. Are you? Parents lie on behalf of their idiot kids all the time.

BUCK: I’m not saying that Biden shouldn’t have lied on behalf of his idiot kid.

CLAY: Yeah, yeah.

BUCK: The rest of the country should have been told the truth by the media.

CLAY: That’s what’s infuriating here is that the media allowed his lie to be accepted as truth.

BUCK: So did all these former intel senior professionals!

CLAY: And from my perspective, you know better than me, that feels even worse than the media do.

BUCK: Yeah. They betrayed their country, but they think they did it a big favor.
