now, he is host of the talking feds podcast, also illegal columnist with the l.a. times.d. anyway, before we get to this idea of a global deal, he has not publicly mentioned e. jean carroll since the ruling. could he be putting himself on some sort of defamation budget? >> yeah, i think so. and i think it is significant because it shows him having been brought to heel. you saw his supporters saying, he doesn't take any crap. he does what he wants and it's away with it. here, he did what you wanted and did not get away with it. he got sought once a little bit and now very harshly. i think maybe alina habba, maybe in his own mind, that's a path i can't go. and i've been burned very severely. we will see, but i think it will be a really encouraging sign that the legal system can actually constrain him. >> yeah, third degree burns that. what about alina habba who had testy exchanges with judge at one point, he told her you are on the verge of spending some time in thlock-up. now sit down. later he said, if you vla my instructions again, there may be conces. and then when alin

to the subpoena, except for the privilege that he has claimed throughout his life, that is the l.a. times set about hunter biden, biden is still on the nepotism gravy train. at the daily mail reported, hundred mitzie got $50,000 per month because of his family name. and it goes on and on. again, the los angeles times described hunter biden as a child of privilege. that is the only privilege hunter biden has ever asserted. he asserts not that he should be exempt from testifying because there is some constitutional prescription, and even the chairman of this committee would agree to as bennie thompson agreed to on the j six committee issuance of subpoenas to members of congress. he doesn't assert that kind of privilege. he asserts only the privilege that he does not need to come and testify before the united it's congress who has issued a subpoena, and he personally has acknowledged that subpoena for the simple reason that you say biden. so where are we? merrick garland has authorized pursuing republicans for contempt of congress. you must also authorize prosecution of hunter biden. failure
