MARK GAGNON (HOST): And he’s only got one crazy pardon to go. You know what I mean? It’s either Diddy or Ghislaine.
ANDREW SCHULZ (HOST): Yeah.
GAGNON: You got to go Ghislaine on that one.
ALEXXMEDIA (HOST): You really think he only has one pardon to go?
GAGNON: I mean, in terms of crazy PR.
SCHULZ: Where’s the political capital in giving a Diddy pardon? Like, I think that should be zero, guys.
ALEXXMEDIA: He’s been pardoning motherfuckers he don’t even know who they are. They asked him about that Asian dude, the crypto guy. He’s like, I don’t know who that is.
SCHULZ: Oh the Binance dude.
ALEXXMEDIA: Yeah.
GAGNON: Yeah.
SCHULZ: Yeah
ALEXXMEDIA: Like, that’s crazy.
SCHULZ: Yeah. That is a little wild.
ALEXXMEDIA: That is wild.
SCHULZ: That’s a little wild. You can’t pardon someone you don’t know who they are. Unless you’re Biden.
…
SCHULZ: This is what I imagine the pardons are. It’s either like a favor from someone close to you before you get out of there. Somebody who has been loyal to you and got hemmed up in some shit and you’re like, I need to protect them. You know, or there is political capital in the pardoning. You know, January 6 people, there’s political capital in pardoning all of them, right? The rouse up the base, base is excited.
ALEXXMEDIA: And I think some people just straight paying for it. I think there’s a price for it and if-
SCHULZ: But what’s the price though?
GAGNON: Well, allegedly, I heard this with the Binance guy.
ALEXXMEDIA: 2 mil, right?
SCHULZ: Yeah, what’s the Binance one?
GAGNON: Like allegedly it was like, he got pardoned and then he has all these funds that he’s able to like reinsert back into Trump’s projects.
ALEXXMEDIA: Yeah.
GAGNON: Like his like crypto projects. Allegedly, I don’t know if this is the case, this is what I’ve heard.
SCHULZ: I mean that checks out. So then you’re paying for it, like Al saying.
GAGNON: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It’s like a little, you know, you scratch my back type.
SCHULZ: I’ll scratch yours. Did this run out of battery?
