And there's a lot of legal scholars that say this just simply is too broad because you could essentially, under this construct, provide blanket immunity for a murder that was not discovered until later on. And that seems overly broad. As far as congressional investigations are concerned, absolutely, they can continue to investigate. Jim Comer, I talked to him recently.

a couple of days ago, and he told me that he has advised the incoming Attorney General, Pam Bondi, that he believes that the Department of Justice needs to investigate this. You can ask people questions. You can do a criminal investigation, even if you're not targeting the specific family member. And I think Congress needs to investigate it because, again, It's not just about what the Bidens did.

One of the true things about Washington, D.C., is if people figure out a way in power to make money for their family and they're not going to be caught, they're not going to be held liable, it will be imitated. So this notion of getting foreign entities to enrich your family when you're a decision maker in a position to help or hurt them could become widespread.

And I don't think anybody wants that.

Well, some people like Professor Alan Dershowitz, Professor Emeritus of Law at Harvard, has said that this actually creates problems for the Biden family, these pardons do, because now when you are asked questions by a congressional committee or by Department of Justice lawyers, you cannot plead the Fifth Amendment because, of course, the Fifth Amendment prevents you from self-incrimination.

Now, if you are exempt from being prosecuted for these crimes— you presumably cannot plead the Fifth Amendment. So it may actually make things harder for the Biden family in terms of actually having to answer questions. But the key thing is those questions have to be asked.

The Department of Justice, under Pam Bonney, who I think is going to be confirmed, and by the Congressional Oversight Committees, need to proceed. This is not about retribution. It's not about being vindictive. That certainly seems to be what people have accused Trump of doing. But if you look at his first term as president, he certainly did not prosecute Hillary Clinton or anyone else.

And there's no reason to believe that that would be taking place here. It's simply trying to get clarification and facts of what actually transpired and what these Chinese, Russian and Ukrainian entities actually got in exchange for sending millions of dollars to Joe Biden's family.

I think that's going to be the central question, John, going forward, because you have these large institutions, the Department of Defense, for example, or the CIA. These are entities that there's a reason people call them the deep state, because they're deeply embedded within those bureaucracies.

So you're going to have somebody who is confirmed as the SecDef or as the CIA director who is going to be having to deal with bureaucracies that are trying to counteract what you're doing. It's very hard to fight that kind of trench warfare at the same time as you're carrying out policies to deal with, say, the threat from China or the threat from Russia. So that is going to be the defining issue.
