Go to noblegoldinvestments.com what Joe Biden did on the last day of his presidency is one of the most repulsive, disgusting, scum of the earth actions we've ever seen from a leader, let alone a President of the United States. Joining us now is Garrett Ziegler. Garrett, welcome back to the program. You are the man behind the Marco Polo Project. That is Marco polo501.org In some ways, Garrett, this is a vindication because you've been saying the whole family was involved in this stuff. They said no. And they were so worried that he needed to pardon his whole family. We're gonna have another guest on tomorrow, Andrew, about Fauci and Millie, because we also need to address that. So I don't want to do that with you, Garrett. That's a whole separate category. What did Joe Biden do in the last 15 minutes of his presidency?
Garrett Ziegler
Well, it was astounding. I went and looked at the PDF document that the pardon attorney at the DOJ put out and it said that the pardon for Sarah Biden, which is a sister in law, Jimmy's wife, his sister Valerie, her husband John, and both of his brothers, Jimmy and Frankie, was signed on the 19th. But that PDF only was released on the website at 11:30, right when even after the motor kid had arrived at the Capitol. What this means is, and I'm not sure we're going to find it in foia, because the Executive Office of the President isn't subject to FOIA number one. And number two, I think it was a phone call they made. Sure they deliberately told the pardon attorney, do not put this online until 11:30. Because he signed, signed both Millie and the J6 scammers on the 19th as well. But he specifically told them not to publish this till 11:30am with 30 minutes left. You know, the funny thing is, Charlie, we don't have Valerie or John from the laptop. I'm not saying they didn't commit crimes, of course they did. Joe pardoned him. But on the laptop itself, his sister Valerie and her husband John, there's no evidence of criminal activity by them on the laptop. What this means is they. There's a lot of scummy stuff. Lobbying, unregistered lobbying. But that means that Joe is aware of things not on this laptop, which means it's not in our report that they did. Now, Frankie, Jimmy, the brothers, there's multiple felonies for them and I don't know how Jimmy's wife, Sarah Jones Biden, still has her bar license. She's still barred in Maryland and D.C. and she did unconscionable things compared to Rudy and John Eastman and in Jeff Clark, all of whom have tentatively lost their bar license. So I think it, it is a vindication, number one. But number two, I wanted to talk about the time Frame Hunter got January 1, 2014, complete federal immunity to December 1 of 2024. Incredibly, his siblings got even more than that. His siblings got up to January 19th of 2025, just, just three days ago. So that means that they are all of his family members. His son and both of his brothers, his sisters, his brother in law and sister in law. Six individuals received more time in terms of federal immunity than even Richard Nixon. Twice the length. I just figured out the number of days that Richard Nixon got it for. August 9th or January 20th, 1969 to August 9th of 1974. That is half of the federal immunity that all of Joe Biden's closest six individuals on planet Earth just received. So unprecedented isn't even a strong enough word. Unprecedented just means that something new has occurred that is likely to set a new precedent. Right. I don't think there'll be a repeat of this. This will be a one off. I don't think they'll receive any.
Charlie Kirk
So, Garrett, let's take a step back. I gotta slow us down a little bit. I read the part and I didn't know who half these people were. So let's. You said this kind of in passing. Who are these people that receive pardons? And why are wives receiving preemptive pardons going back a decade?
Garrett Ziegler
So these pardons, three of the five are Joe's siblings. Joe is the classic oldest Irish Catholic son. What that means is he got the most opportunities. Even Jimmy, in an interview, said that Joe got the best cut of meat growing up. So Joe's the oldest. And then followed by Joe is Valerie, the sister. Jimmy, the little brother. Who was the most involved? Who was. If I had to pick any of the five who just got pardoned? Charlie. Jimmy was the one who most needed it. And then the littlest brother, the most pathetic Biden by any metric. Frankie. Those are his three siblings. Now, the other two individuals were the spouses of those first two. Valerie's married to John Owens, and John Owens was Joe's law school roommate and best friend at Syracuse. So the president's best friend at Syracuse Law, Owens married his sister Valerie, but he also just got a pardon. So the Syracuse Law school class of 1966 should have a scarlet letter around its neck for the next, you know, for eternity, because they're probably the only people, the only law school class out of Syracuse to have an unconditional pardon given to one of its graduates. And then there's Sarah Jones Biden, the wife of Jimmy. Like I said, the only three of these five individuals. Do we have evidence from the laptop of engaging in criminal activity? That means that Joe is aware, in the case of Valerie and John Owens of criminal activity that they engaged in outside of the laptop. So there's stuff that in. Only Jimmy and Sarah have been contacted by the congressional committees. They're the only ones who comer and folks wanted to talk to. So that means that Frankie and all these other three individuals, they know something that the public still doesn't know. And, you know, there are two other laptops that belong to Hunter, which we go into on our report that we don't have access to, one of which was picked up by the DEA in their raid of Hunter psychiatrist Keith Abloh, and the other was stolen by Russian drug dealers in Vegas. So the compromise is still out there. We just have one of the three. So maybe that the pardons for Valerie and John are because of conduct captured in some of those other laptops. So, again, he didn't even have the courage to release this on the morning of the 19th. He didn't even. He thought this was so egregious that he didn't even put it up with nil.
Charlie Kirk
No, see, this actually, this was actually the correct. This was the correct analysis. They knew that if President Trump knew about this before his inaugural, he would have mentioned it in the inaugural and that he would have turned around and would have been like, shame on you. And it would have been one of the greatest moments in American history. They knew it. This is where the Biden team said, we have to post this on the website as Trump is taking the stage. And, I mean, you gotta give credit to the Biden team. If you're gonna sneak it in, you do it that way. But they were so petrified of a public humiliation. Of which it would have been warranted. Right. Of which President Trump could have said, listen, I didn't pardon my family when I left office, yet. I was a victim of lawfare, and look what this lunatic just did. And like, man, that would have just been. That would have honestly been very warranted given the repulsive, disgusting nature of these pardons. So in the interest of time here, Garrett, again, there are names here that I have to Google. John T. Owens. He didn't pardon himself. A point that President Trump has astutely now mentioned.
Garrett Ziegler
Yes, I watched the interview last night with Hannity. I thought it was great. And Trump is right on the money. And it's the reason, by the way, why we dedicated three years to this. It's not just because Jimmy is a criminal and a money launderer. That is borne out by, number one, the pardon, number two, the conduct on the laptop. It's that this was a RICO operation. So Jo was the unindicted, not just co conspirator, Joe was the unindicted leader of the, of the RICO conspiracy. And they were monetizing in, you know, I think, the Rico statues, 18 USC, 1961. In that federal statute, he is the valuable asset being monetized. He is the human equivalent of, you know, the cocaine trade in Colombia in the 1970s. I know it sounds crass, but that is literally what they were doing. Valerie Biden, one of the, one of the five individuals, his sister, his best friend, according to his biographers, she was the manager of every single campaign for Joe in the Senate, all six of them. And she was the manager for his failed presidential campaigns in 08 or in 1988. So that means that every, every vendor that Joe Biden ever used in campaigns. All that money was funneled to Valeries political consulting firm called Joe, Slade and White. So this isn't the case of an innocent spouse. Right. You know there's actually federal laws about claiming innocent spouse, especially with tax returns. A lot of wives in American history, especially mobsters, have tried to claim that. With Valerie, she is not like that. She was the head of the political consulting operation and everything. Their sinecures and their positions relied on Joe's senate seat. Jimmy, he. And again, I'm not for necessarily everybody going to college of course, but. But Jimmy has no practical skills either. It's one thing if you don't go to college, right? And you're in your, you have street smarts, you're quick witted, you don't need it. Jimmy on the other hand, just from reading the emails, Charlie has the communication skills like a sixth grader. So he's not even. He's not, he's not even impressive in his own right. It would be one thing if the Bidens grifted and were very adept and suave people and articulate, right? But they're not even that. They're the worst version of Joe the gaffe machine. So that makes it, that, that ups the ante and makes this thing even more of a comedy because it's one thing to be corrupt, but impressive. They're not even impressive. And the only reason why we know so much of their criminal activity is because the smartest man Joe says he knows left a laptop at a repair shop. So they have no one else to blame. And of course, even their pardons, even Jimmy's pardon, Sarah, Valerie, John, Frankie and Hunters has not stopped them from dropping their lawsuit against us. We have a trial scheduled with Hunter in Los Angeles Federal Court September 6th of this year.

This is such an affront to our traditions, the likes of which there's nothing ever in the history of the Republic where preemptive pardons are extraordinarily rare. There are two major instances of preemptive pardons in America, the first of which would be Gerald Ford preemptively pardoning Richard Nixon. The second of which would be the preemptive pardons of Jimmy Carter with draft dodgers. Those are the two largest instances of preemptive pardons that we've seen in American history. This is a whole different category. We'll handle the Fauci, the Milley, the J6 committee, and the staff tomorrow. But is this the end of criminal exposure and liability for the Biden crime.
Garrett Ziegler
Family at the federal level? Probably. I say probably because they could still call Hunter and Jimmy in and they'll likely lie under oath. So it's contingent upon Trump's new US Attorneys having courage to charge them on perjury charges when they inevitably do lie. So I would urge the Congress, Sarah, she definitely needs to lose a bar license and she did commit money laundering, but she won't know as much as Jimmy and Hunter. So I would urge the Congress to bring them in. And of course, that immunity ended January 19th. So anything going forward is fair game from a federal level. But one of the great sad stories about this saga is that the Republican AGs and County DAs didn't look and didn't basically enforce the law. There's no state level immunity for Hunter and Jimmy because of these pardons and every single crime they committed, whether it's drugs, money laundering, prostitution, they all have a local jurisdiction component. Now, to be frank, a lot of these occurred in blue states. A lot in Connecticut, a lot in New York, a lot in D.C. a lot in California. However, Hunter's financial advisor, Edward Pruitt, lives in Fayetteville, Arkansas, where Bill and Hillary used to teach that jurisdiction by virtue of Hunter's financial advisor being there. Every single one of these wire transfers that Hunter Biden facilitated using Wells Fargo, it has jurisdiction in Arkansas. Now there are a couple of them that are still within the statute of limitations. Most of them have passed of Course, we've gone in and looked at what the statute of limitation is for money laundering in Arkansas. For some offenses, depending on the dollar amount, it's six years. For most it's five years. So we're getting at the end of that. But I think there was no excuse and the left figured this out. Now their cases were ridiculous and they each had a federal component to them, especially the Stormy Daniels hoax is a federal election component. But Hunter and Jimmy Biden's cases are much more clear cut. They used Arkansas wires, namely their financial advisor in Fayetteville, to facilitate transactions which engaged in money laundering. That is undeniable. And Even if before January 19th, somebody heard me say that and you know, they doubted it and they didn't read our 644 page book, I know I sent you guys some copies. They just need to go look at the pardon. They have to see the breadth of this thing. One more point of privilege. I want to, I want to bring up the federal judge in Hunter's Los Angeles case, the same district in which he's suing us civilly raked Joe over the coals because there is a portion of Joe's parted to Hunter and his recent pardon of his siblings and their spouses that is not valid. And here it is. When he pardoned Hunter and he pardoned those folks on the January 19, he said the pardon went through the date of the pardon. That is for, for a couple of hours. That is unenforceable. What I mean by that is Joe didn't sign these things at 11:59. In the case of Hunter, we know that for a fact. We know he signed it around 5:30 because they announced it at 6. And of course Joe is fed, wiped and put to bed at about 8:30 every night. So we know he's not up until 11:59 signing these things for the amount of hours. And this is technical, but just bear with me, for the amount of hours that still were in those two days and after he signed it, you cannot pardon prospective conduct. So the judge in Hunter's federal case said we're not, it's not going to affect this case. But just for the record, those six hours that occurred from 6pm to midnight on December 1, 2024, that's not covered by the pardon. And yet Joe said it was. So he made this mistake again with his siblings. You thought the staff secretary, the Biden equivalent of Will Scharf, you know, the staff secretary would have made it through the day before Joe's pardon should have said through January 18th because those hours, it's just pathetic. That's why I wanted to bring it up, is they made the mistake again, even after a federal judge excoriated them in the case of Hunter Garrett.

It is shocking all time and it is hard to keep up. But that's what this program exists to do to make sure you're informed with the marching orders of how we are reclaiming our country. It is Liberation Week. Joining us now is Raheem Kassam. Raheem is from thenationalpulse.com that is thenational pulse.com Raheem, welcome to the program.
Andrew
Thanks for having me. Thanks for having me back.
Charlie Kirk
Raheem, what is your take on the last couple of hours, the last couple of days of this new Trump administration?
Andrew
Well, look, they've clearly hit the ground running. And that was one of the most important things that we were all concerned about on the run up to January 20th was how much can you get done, how quickly, how many roadblocks are there going to be from the deep state, the holdovers, so on and so forth. We lived that life in 2016 and saw the massive Sisyphean task, you know, fought by all of the people who went to in good faith work inside the White House, work inside the government departments. And after, after the election, after the victory, after that Enormous victory. The entire attention span flipped to how do we actually make these first few days, weeks and months as, as rewarding as they can be for the American public. So it's great to see. I think, you know, minute upon minute, I seem to be getting notifications from the White House Communications office, which is great because we were banned from the White House communications list under the Biden regime. So they've reinstated us. Over at the National Pulse. I know they're putting so many other, including your guys, reporters in the, in the press briefing room. And, and I think that is a sign of major amounts of transparency coming out of this administration too.
Charlie Kirk
The immigration raids in particular. I want to talk about the United Kingdom, but it's rather remarkable. Even in the first administration, we did not see this kind of shock and awe, this kind of action. Is that correct, Rahim?
Andrew
Yeah, it is. I mean, I think, you know, again, eight years ago, people were really getting to grips with, you know, how do these processes operate. And I think within the last four or five years, really, there's become ingrained institutional knowledge in MAGA world that says the processes will work however we want them to work. Actually, that's how the left approaches government and that is how MAGA needs to approach government too. There has been predominantly, traditionally, too much appeasement on the Republican side of cutesy little processes and bureaucratic backstops. Well, those times are over. And when you have the yoke, when you have the mantle, when you have the momentum and the wind at your back, a mandate from the public like Donald J. Trump got, then you have to use every single tool in your arsenal to carry out your campaign pledges. So I'm ecstatic, frankly, with the speed and the ferocity with which they're operating.
Charlie Kirk
So there is a story here that you warned about many years ago in the United kingdom, where now 1 in 12 people in London is an illegal migrant. You warned about this. I think we have the original tape of when you warned about it, but we will play 143.
G
Do you know how much youth homicide went up by in London last year? Have you told your viewers that? 70%. Have you looked at the mayoral's police and crime report from December 12? You look at that. Almost every single Measure out of 42, only four of them in four categories did crime go down in every single other area. Double digit rises in crime across London. So you know what, to borrow a phrase from, from Donald Trump, London's turning into a hole under Sadiq Khan.
Charlie Kirk
You predicted it, Raheem. What's going on in the United Kingdom.
Andrew
Yeah, you look, you only had to pay attention to the. What were public details about how London's left wing mayor, Sadiq Khan was running the city into the ground, which I did, but the press didn't want to do it, which is what led to that kind of altercation on Sky News. Never been invited back since, obviously. But you now see today a London wildly unrecognisable from even 10 years ago. And even 10 years ago, it was wildly unrecognizable from 10 years prior. The idea of public safety has gone out of the window. You're seeing mass stabbing events, shootings. Yes, that's right. We actually have guns and shootings in the United Kingdom, much to the chagrin of the Second Amendment haters out there who use that, who use that falsely as an example. And you've got no integration, you've got no assimilation. Multiculturalism has led to pockets of, you know, foreign cities, enclaves inside our capital. It happens all across Europe. In 2017, I went across Europe and the United Kingdom. I wrote a book called no Go Zones, which, which laid everything out. It was, here's what's going to happen in the next 10 years if we don't arrest this immediately. And surely enough, as the Telegraph reported yesterday, the story you allude to, 1 in 12 people in London now, up to 1 in 12 are illegal migrants, illegal residents of the United Kingdom. And of course, that comes with a backstop, a plethora of issues with it. A higher level of criminality, higher levels of homelessness, higher levels of violence, sex trafficking, human trafficking, you name it. The illegal migrant population has all of those running rampant in their midst. And we have, and we continue to have a mayor and a city government that refuses to do anything about it. That is what you have avoided by electing Donald Trump this time around.
Charlie Kirk
So explain this to me, Raheem. Are there people in the United Kingdom that are looking at America with fair amount of envy that you wish you could bring it back? What is the vibe within your homeland?
Andrew
Yeah, massively so. Look, I remember, I remember being probably the first mugger hat owner in the United kingdom back in 2015. And even my closest friends, my most right wing acquaintances sort of looked at me side eyed and said, well, you know, that's, that's all a bit silly, right? And as time has progressed and as people who have seen Donald Trump's track record, his commitment to, to all of this, how the movement has broadened so much, especially in the last 18, 24 months, you know, much credit, Charlie, to you and your team who have done so much of that hard work that's led to that. They're now looking at it and going, you know what, you might have had a point with that bag of hat back in 2015. And I can't tell you now. I see Brits all the time. I see them on the, I saw them on the Tunnel to Towers charity run last year. Some of the firemen from over there, I see them all the time now. They go, you know what? We wish we had somebody like Trump over in the U.K. now, look, it's possible. We know Nigel, we know he's got a big election in 2029, but it's a long way off.
Charlie Kirk
Some of President Trump's actions are almost hard to process because they're coming in at such a rapid pace, one of which was a full repeal of affirmative action. Rahim, this would have been an unspeakable concept even five years ago when Trump was president. What changed? Where now on day two or day one, I can't remember, I think it was day two that President Trump just got rid of all affirmative action hiring practices in the federal government. What changed?
Andrew
Well, what really changed was the mandate, the public mandate for all of this stuff. And you've seen it popping up in places all across the country in smaller scales. Governor DeSantis, for as much as we had to go entering the primary, has done a fantastic job tackling what he calls woke in, in Florida. And so you've seen, you've seen, you know, the bubbling up, the grassroots reaction to so much of this stuff, how much money is being spent on it, how many offers diversity and inclusion officers are there operating not just within government, by the way, but within government sponsored NGOs across the board, State Department embassies all around the world. And the mandate changed. So, so Donald Trump was actually given express orders by the voting public to end this stuff. And, and they just were not there five, 10 years ago. It, it wasn't, it was a pre Bud Light, Dylan Mulvaney kind of world. And there has just been so many people who have brought this to Elon Musk and Libs of Tick Tock and all these guys kind of unveiling this to, you know, for the public to, to actually, you know, really have this, this election was like a referendum on, on that stuff. And in en masse, the American public said, get rid of it now. Government should have certain statutory functions. That is not one of them.

Raheem, what's going on with the latest news regarding the UK Ambassador to the United States?
Andrew
Yeah, it's a really important story, really fascinating sequence of events because of course, you know, whether or not people really still think about it, the the United Kingdom is America's largest military ally. It is one of America's largest economic trading partners. And so the embassy, the ambassador and the interoperationality, when you look at five eyes, when you look at NATO, when you look at the bilateral information sharing, intelligence sharing that goes on, that's a pretty big deal. There's a reason that the British Embassy is one of the largest in Washington, D.C. and it speaks to the, the fecklessness and arrogance of the British government that for so long they have appointed ambassadors who, who are nasty about Donald Trump, who have said horrendous things, who have terrible things in their own past. And, and the latest to be floated for this plenipotentiary position is Lord Mandelson. Now, I don't necessarily expect everyone to remember or know who Lord Mandelson is, but in brief, he was one of the top advisors known as the Dark Lord to the left wing Prime Minister Tony Blair. In 97, onwards to about 2007, he was deeply responsible for Britain's social and economic decline. He was deeply responsible for drawing the UK Closer into the European Union. And so the idea that Keir Starmer, the current prime minister, would shove somebody like Lord Mandelson into the embassy in D.C. and expect him to be taken seriously is a great affront to President Trump. It's a great affront to the American public and what they voted for. It shows a deep disconnect of Britain with America right now, and I'm frankly embarrassed about that and apologetic, actually, to all of you about that. You know, Lord Mandelson, with his long standing, long reported, by the way, in case you're worried about any libel laws, links to Jeffrey Epstein. Lord Mandelson, who has said some of the most skuldugerous things about Donald Trump, he simply would not be able, and by the way, still pulls, I believe, a pension from the European Union. So where do his loyalties lie? I don't think he would be an effective ambassador. And now we're hearing that, actually in a relatively unprecedented move. I did some research into this. It may be the case that Donald Trump actually refuses his credentials, which is. Which is in the gift of the receiving country, of an ambassador to do. But it's deeply unheard of. I think the last time you guys did it was. Was some corruption scandal in Korea in, in early 2000s, and before that it was. It was Iran, Cuba, and before that it was Nazi Germany. So. So for that to be considered at that extent, actually is a major, major diplomatic move that we need to pay close attention to. It tells you something. It tells you that it's not business as usual for this incoming Trump administration and that they're just simply not going to put up with it anymore. They did that the first four years. They had terrible ambassadors, they had terrible situations. Diplomatically, we don't need another of those situations here. And Lord Mandelson represents that.
Charlie Kirk
In closing here, rakim, we have 1,400, I think, 58, 38 days left. Let me see, 1,004. 458 days of this Trump administration ago. That's a lot of time left on the clock. Rahim, what do you want to see done that has not yet been done or addressed? Things not just signed, but agency directives that you want to see the new Trump administration tackle?
Andrew
It's a great question. I don't know that I've put together a list yet, but I sure would like to resurrect Stephen K. Bannon's old whiteboard from his West Wing office that I believe ended up getting buried in White House storage in the basement after he left in 2017. There are so many things left on that which remain unticked. I think we have to get our heads around the immigration issue, the legal immigration issue. Into the United States because there is such a scam going on with all of that as well. I think it should be relatively prioritized. I also think, look, there are plenty of opportunities here and I know that people like Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not going to miss out on these. There are plenty of cultural opportunities as America reaches its 250th anniversary. As you know, you're hosting the World cup.
