Clay Travis, founder of Outkick, and today I'm adding an attorney. What is your take on what's happening in Georgia? It's a massive story. I think if anything, this has been underplayed overall by the media. I think Harris, this is a dead prosecution. I think Fannie Will is going to have to step down. I think Nathan Wade is going to have to step down. And if the state of Georgia really gets into this investigation, which Governor Brian Kemp on down, everybody should be involved in this, I think it's possible there's a criminal prosecution against Willis herself based on these allegations. She tried to say that this was race-based, Harris, but by saying, "Oh, they're only focusing on one of the three attorneys that I hired to participate in this investigation." And my response to that will be, "Well, did you sleep with the other two as well?" Because until the allegations that you were sleeping with, a man that you funneled $650,000 in taxpayer money to, a man who may well have been unqualified to have the job in the first place, and also allegations, Harris, that she was traveling with him on extravagant vacations that were being paid for by the taxpayers of Georgia. If you were going to try and put the former president of the United States behind bars in an outrageous and unprecedented series of charges under Georgia state law, you need to be crystal clear yourself and have absolutely nothing in your background that is going to impinge on these prosecutions. I think these allegations by themselves, where often in the law, I can speak as an attorney here Harris, it's not only impropriety, it's the appearance of impropriety and the appearance that Fawny Willis broke up the marriage of a man she hired that she was sleeping with him and that she paid him $650,000 in taxpayer money, that is more than enough to cause an issue here. Wow, I don't know why I've never called on you as an attorney before. I'll of course with me doing it. All right, let's move to this. House Republicans plan a new round of subpoenas for Hunter Biden. After he did a 180 Friday, he finally agreed to sit down for a closed door deposition after blowing one off last month and then that whole stunt last week showing up uninvited to a House hearing, which by the way, Americans can do, but he skipped out on the subpoena. In a letter to Hunter's lawyer, Republicans wrote, "Although the committee's subpoenas are lawful and remain legally enforceable, we are prepared to issue new subpoenas compelling Mr. Biden's appearance at a deposition on a new date in the coming weeks." Hunter, with a couple of stunts when it comes to the subpoenas, again, he shocked the House panel by storming into his own contempt hearing that was going on in oversight. All right, I come back to you for your legal thoughts on this. We don't have a lot of time. Yeah, the only thing I can think is that Hunter Biden was going to try to argue that he wasn't defying the subpoena. He was just combating the method in which the deposition was going to take place and that was going to be a really difficult putt to sink from a legal perspective. And there was so much negative blowback from the White House and beyond that Hunter Biden finally decided, you know what, given the precedent that's been set already with Steve Bannon, I need to show up or I'm going to put the White House in an even more difficult position in the Department of Justice and Merrick Garland as well. And so basically he's folded and he's showing up now.
