Moink. All right. So we're back on the Midas Touch podcast. People might think, what happened? Popak and Davis hijacked the show. We might try it again, knock them out, come in and run the show for a little bit. We're having fun here, though. So, look, let's get international, you and me. Just leave it at that. Let's get international. Let's talk about Alexander Smirnoff.
And as an FBI informant, we did a lot of coverage on it, I might have said. You might have also. Yeah. About his testimony, because it was like bombshell testimony. Could you imagine a guy coming out and saying to the FBI and to a special prosecutor that was prosecuting Hunter Biden at the time, I've got news for you. Hunter and Joe took a $5 million bribe. I think it was a piece. Right?
And a payoff from Burisma. And it's part of the corruption scandal. And Dan Weiss, the special prosecutor, was like, go on. And then James Comer and Jim Jordan and the MAGA oversight and Judiciary Committee. They got so excited about it. Oh, they got so, it was like a wet dream. They finally found it, the $5 million bribe scandal. Now, look, let me just tell you why. I don't know.
I don't mean our audience. I mean others. When did they suspend critical thinking? Joe Biden. You can say a lot about Joe Biden. OK, you can have your own respectful criticism of Joe Biden and his career in the 80s, in the 90s, things that he was responsible for. You know, we could talk about Clarence Thomas. We can talk about busing. Bussing, we can talk about three strikes and you're out.
We can talk about a lot of things if you want to be critical of Joe Biden and his evolution as a politician. But one thing you have to give the guy credit for, he's been in the public eye for 50 years. He was the youngest senator we ever had. He was the oldest president we ever had and everything in between.
The media has had the ability to x-ray and acid test, pressure wash Joe Biden for 50 years, and they've come up with nothing in terms of corruption because he's not corrupt. So all of a sudden, because MAGA's in Congress, Joe Biden is now, you know, a mobster taking $5 million bribes. Come on.
Joe Biden almost did not take the seat because that car accident happened around Christmas time.
And he was going to be sworn in for that January three, four date as a new senator, as a young senator. And he thought about not doing it because just several weeks before he lost his wife and one of his children and had a scramble to create a support system while he was still obviously grieving. And Joe Biden should be on Mount Rushmore as a civil servant, right?
Just for everything that he's done. Vice president to the first African-American president and a strong partner and supporter of Barack Obama. And someone who's pivoted.
I mean, the fact that you even mentioned busing where Kamala Harris had to take him on in the debate. Right. Right. Right. About about I was that little girl, Joe. I was like, wow, it was so far. He was way back then. But but my point is, it just chaps my backside to hear MAGA just try to destroy Joe Biden.
Force him not to run for reelection, effectively, along with the media complicity, the complicity of the media. And then we're going to talk about Alexander Smirnoff, who just pled guilty because he's a phony informant who lied in order to curry favor with the FBI. Dan Weiss, the prosecutor, believed it for a while, the Hunter Biden prosecutor. And then, of course, MAGA went crazy with it.
And they spent so much time with public hearings over it. And money as well, the cost of those hearings. Where is the apology? Where is the apology to Joe Biden?
So make sure people heard it right, not libs. Not Liv Tyler. Or libs. Or libs even, yeah. Yeah, the libs of the libs. Well, listen, I think this is... I remember two years ago, I think well on holiday, you know, when I'm just taking a stroll. And I called you from wherever I was at. I was out of the country somewhere with my wife. And I said, hey, Anthony.
Right, right, right. Or I texted you first. I said, I got an idea. And I think, you know, I'd love to do it with you. And at the time, it wasn't like the right time, this Global AF. What now we're referring to, working title, Global AF. I think it'll be the title.
And we were very focused as a network on – not insular, just focused on things that were happening here and with Trump and with the resistance and all, and then pivoting to helping to try to get Kamala elected with providing good information and pure information. But now – the global impact of Donald Trump's return to power. And we're watching it. I mean, it's already in real time.
It's not even like we have to hypothesize. And he's not even the president yet. He's not even the president yet. And Canada is in turmoil. Germany is in turmoil. France is in turmoil. And he's gone to war with Mexico and Canada over trade. Absolutely. While he invites the Chinese president to come to his inauguration. To the inauguration.
Oh, this was the young Republicans dinner.
Well, that's what you and I and the Midas Touch and the brothers and those on this network are going to have to do. We got our work cut out for us over the next two years to four years because we're going to have to shine a light on this and we're going to have to call it out. And then the reason that I created with Ben and the brothers Legal AF, the YouTube channel,
a month or so before the election was not to help Kamala win. It was what if she doesn't? And what does the legal landscape look like in a potential Trump presidency where we're going to be lurching from one constitutional crisis to another, one abuse of power, daily abuse of power, meaning we're going to have to run into the courts.
That's why on Legal AF, the YouTube channel, I have court accountability action over there with me And they're amazing. They're like a think tank slash investigative organization that looks at corruption at the federal court level up to the United States Supreme Court. And they do some amazing work. And this is why we're here together, not to scare the shit out of each other.
