he got elected, including opening up the border. So I don't know. I guess you have to ask yourself what failure means if somebody is doing what they said they would do. You just don't like it. We'll talk, of course, more about Biden here. First, some other fun stuff. Project Veritas, as you know, is suing the New York Times for saying some things about their projects. And apparently the New Yor…

So again, I'll say that Project Veritas is one of the most constructive forces in the country right now. Weird, isn't it, that they're one of the most constructive forces? Because they're a pushback against the media propaganda. And you just need that. You need as much pushback as you can get.
Here's an alarming story. Apparently Rudy Giuliani was the subject of federal investigators executing a search warrant on his New York City apartment, and they seized his electronic devices. And it was being reported that it's a sign that some criminal investigation is ramping up about his dealings in Ukraine and including whether he violated the FARA stuff. To which I say that feels like speculation, doesn't it? I think that's speculation as to why they're looking at his stuff.
And do you believe that this is legitimate or do you believe that this is just political? Here's my take on it. The default assumption has to be that this is illegitimate, unfortunately, because what we've witnessed from the Russia collusion hoax all the way through, and we notice any Trump allies being picked off one by one in whatever ways they can get them. So I have to assume this is illegitimate, subject to any evidence that shows it is legitimate.
But isn't your starting position that this is illegitimate? And I'm not sure I would have said that two years ago. I think two years ago if I heard that anybody had been a subject of a search warrant by federal authorities, I would have said to myself, probably there's a good reason. I mean, maybe not innocent until proven guilty, but probably they had a good reason.
Do you believe that they probably had a good reason in this case? Because I don't. I don't think we live in a country where that benefit of th

e doubt can be given to our federal investigators. I don't think we can give them that benefit of the doubt anymore. And so as a country, I think we've got to put pressure on them to say, if you're going to seize somebody's electronic devices, which is one of the most serious things I can think of short of actual physical rape that would make you feel abused and victimized. So short of anything th…
