Senator Ted Cruz (0:00)
Welcome. It is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you. And, Senator, we made some serious headlines from our Wednesday podcast. And in that podcast, you said it's time to start looking for documents, and you named places. And now the White House has had to respond to that. The White House press secretary was asked about you saying the documents are being. That are being held at the University of Delaware, and there's a hell of a lot of them. Is anybody going to go through those? Here's how she responded to that question.
Ben Ferguson (0:33)
Is regarding a comment from Senator Ted Cruz. He's calling for a search of President Biden's Senate records at the University of Delaware for potentially classified information. Those records reportedly include about 1850 boxes of documents as well as 415 gigabytes of electronic files. Does President Biden have any objection to such a search? When it comes to the documents and this ongoing legal matter, I refer you to the White House Counsel's office. Would I just like to read. I'm so sorry, you said you had two. You just like to read up the request of our colleagues in this room for someone to answer these questions from the podium? Absolutely.
Senator Ted Cruz (1:10)
Okay. I mean, what a dodge, Senator. What a dodge. Well done to her for doing her job that day. Right.

So I'm reminded of Monty Python. Her response to that question is, run away. Run away. Like there is nothing preventing her from answering that question. His question was, does Biden object to searching those documents? That's not even really a legal question. It's a political question. Is he open to allowing the FBI to search the documents from his tenure in the Senate? Mind you, he just made public that. Oh, crap, he had classified documents from his tenure in the Senate that were at his house in Wilmington. The University of Delaware has over 1850 boxes of documents from his Senate tenure. Now, listen, if he had classified documents at his house, it's reasonable to ask, were there classified documents in those files? I believe the FBI will search those files. I think it's inevitable. But I think it's striking that the Biden White House won't say, no, we don't object to that. They're not willing to go on record. That was an obvious dodge. And I actually want to make clear, I think it's not just the files at the University of Delaware. I think it is critical that the FBI search Hunter Biden's home and his office locations, given the enormous evidence of corruption involving Hunter Biden and Joe Biden. Involving Hunter Biden selling access to Joe Biden when he was vice president. Involving Hunter Biden being paid millions of dollars from Burisma, the Ukrainian natural gas company, and millions of dollars from. From companies funded by the Chinese Communist government. At the same time that Hunter Biden, we know, was in his father's Corvette, he has pictures out on the Internet of him driving his father's Corvette, which was parked, we now know, and it is admitted next to classified documents. The FBI needs to search and investigate to determine whether there are any classified documents at Hunter Biden's home or business. And by the way, the next question someone might ask is, okay, well, what is the probable cause to search Hunter Biden's home or business? And they there may or may not be probable cause. If he had to go to a court and get a warrant for that search, you'd have to lay out the case. But the question that should be asked tomorrow to Karine Jean Pierre is, does Hunter Biden object to an FBI search of his home and business? Because if there's no objection, the FBI can do it. Now, if he objects, that tells you something. And notice she wouldn't even answer. If Joe Biden, the sitting President, objects to the search of his own Senate documents, that question needs to be asked. That search needs to happen. And I believe if at the end of the day, we discover that these classified documents relate to the corruption of the Biden family, then we are facing real and material criminal charges. We don't know that. There's no evidence of that. But at the same time, the. The Biden FBI and doj, which leaks on every damn thing you can imagine related to Donald Trump, has been locked like a steel drum on this. So we know nothing about what's in these documents. We need to know. We need to search the University of Delaware documents, and we need to search Hunter Biden's home and office, and we need to do it now. The FBI doesn't need to sit on its rear end for days and weeks and months and let someone put those documents in a shredder. They need to show up tomorrow and search Hunter Hunter Biden's home and office. If we care about protecting classified documents and understanding what Joe Biden has done, we need to do that immediately.
