You confirmed you were asked to obstruct justice? No, that’s not what I confirmed. The Mueller report clearly stated there was no collusion or obstruction. That’s not accurate. Did you read the report? No, I haven’t. Then how do you know? Congress members clarified it. I read the entire report, and it lists ten examples of obstruction. That’s not true. Here are the examples: asking Comey to drop the Flynn investigation, firing Comey, trying to remove Mueller, and influencing witnesses, among others. Legal experts agree these are obstruction. How can they determine that without knowing all the facts? The report outlines actions that would have led to charges for any citizen. Attorney General Barr and the deputy AG found no obstruction. A thousand former federal prosecutors, from both parties, stated there was evidence of obstruction that would have led to charges for a regular citizen.

Why did you and your husband participate in a large Visa IPO in March 2008, especially with legislation affecting credit card companies at that time? Did you consider it a conflict of interest? I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make with your question. Are you suggesting it's acceptable for a speaker to accept a favorable stock deal? You participated in the IPO while being Speaker of the House. Do you believe that wasn’t a conflict of interest or at least appeared to be one? It only appears that way if you base it on a false premise, which isn’t true. I’m unclear on which part you find untrue. Can you clarify? Yes, I can act upon an investment.

Parents seek guidance from health leaders regarding vaccine decisions. I want to address a serious matter about character. You were accused of sexual harassment and assault by Eliza Cooney, who was initially hired as a babysitter. When confronted, you mentioned you weren't a "church boy" and acknowledged having "skeletons in your closet." You later texted Ms. Cooney an apology but claimed no memory of her account. Can you respond to these accusations in front of this committee? Did you make unwanted sexual advances toward Ms. Cooney? No, I did not, and that story has been debunked. Why did you apologize then? I apologized for something else. That’s not my understanding. You can read the text she published; it was not for that.

Your party supports law enforcement, but if released prisoners commit crimes, should Trump be held accountable? No more than Biden should be for his policies. If Biden charges offenders who reoffend, he bears responsibility. Why can't your party admit when Trump is wrong? If offenders like the Proud Boys reoffend after being released, isn't Trump responsible? If judges are Trump-appointed, they face consequences; if Biden-appointed, they often walk free. During the Black Lives Matter protests, many offenders weren't prosecuted. You claim there's no coverage of riots, but that’s not true. I left the White House during a riot, and my life was threatened, yet there's no coverage of that. If they break the law, they go to jail. I asked you to acknowledge if you think the pardons are wrong. Those released under Soros-backed DAs often commit worse crimes without punishment. Thank you for your time.

I applied for a presidential pardon because I believe Joe Biden owes me the same consideration he gave his son. Solitary confinement, where I spent 51 days, was a terrible experience. I understand the administration won't grant pardons to those who don't want them, but I think people might change their minds when faced with the reality of their situation. While I see the comparison between myself and Hunter Biden, I recognize that he is the president's son, and I am not. However, I still believe my request for a pardon is valid.

Have you ever heard of someone innocent receiving a preemptive pardon? It seems unlikely, especially when it involves the president's family and associates. Seeking such pardons raises questions about guilt; if someone is innocent, why would they need one? Preemptive pardons suggest that crimes may have occurred, even if they are not publicly known. If the president were to issue these pardons, it might be framed as protecting his family from external threats. However, the underlying concern appears to be about his own and his family's legal troubles. The idea of a permanent pardon for individuals like Rudy Giuliani and the president's children is troubling, especially if they haven't been convicted of any crimes. Many would interpret these pardons as an admission of guilt.

President Biden issued pardons to members of the January 6th committee, which you were part of. This came after President Trump suggested the committee should face jail time. You previously expressed that you did not want a pardon and communicated this to the White House. Now that you’ve received one, are you considering accepting it or seeking legal recourse? We are evaluating the situation, but it’s unclear what can be done since the pardons apply to the entire committee. This is unprecedented territory. We’ve operated collectively, and the law regarding such pardons is ambiguous. It seems likely we’ll have to accept the pardon unless there’s an attempt to prosecute the committee.

Have you ever heard of someone innocent receiving a preemptive pardon? It seems unlikely, especially when it involves the president's family and associates. Seeking pardons suggests concern over potential wrongdoing. If someone is innocent, why would they need a pardon? Preemptive pardons imply that crimes may have occurred, even if not publicly known. If the president grants these pardons, it could be seen as protecting his family from external threats, but it raises questions about guilt. The idea of a permanent pardon for individuals like Giuliani or the president's children is troubling, especially if they haven't been convicted of any crime. If the president pardons anyone, many would interpret it as an admission of guilt. Recently, it was reported that President Biden will pardon his son, Hunter Biden.

Not much has changed since yesterday, and this is a personal matter. Regarding the possibility of the president pardoning his son, the answer is no. I already addressed that. Please continue.

Have you ever heard of someone innocent receiving a preemptive pardon? It's unusual, especially when it's the president's family involved. Seeking preemptive pardons raises questions about guilt; if there's no wrongdoing, why ask for one? Such actions suggest that crimes may have occurred, even if not publicly known. If pardons are issued, they might be framed as protecting family reputations from external threats. The notion of a permanent pardon raises eyebrows, especially for individuals like Giuliani and the president's children, who haven't been convicted of crimes. If the president pardons them, many would interpret it as an admission of guilt. Meanwhile, there are still legal avenues to pursue accountability for any wrongdoing.

Will you advise the president against issuing blanket pardons? I haven't reviewed those files yet, but if confirmed, I will examine them. Will you be able to review hundreds of cases on day one? I will look at every file I'm asked to review. Can you advise the president? I will have sufficient staff to assist me. I won't mislead this body or you. Let me ask you another question. These moments are why Congress exists.

Byron Thedford? That's me. Oh, we received a report that you were pushing DEI in defiance of the state law and seeking loopholes to get around the law. Is that true? It's not. No, sir. You've never talked about pushing loopholes to get around the law? I haven't. No. What about this video?

Are you here for tours or meetings? Is this about January 6th? What about the pardons for the Biden family? No focus on that? What about the murderers and rapists Biden pardoned? The obsession with January 6th is absurd. People are tired of it. Biden pardons serious criminals while there’s outrage over those who walked through open doors on January 6th. There’s a lack of attention on the Antifa and BLM individuals who faced no consequences. The media keeps fixating on January 6th while ignoring real issues like the economy, border security, and energy. People are frustrated with the media and the hypocrisy in politics. I'm not going to engage in this line of questioning anymore. I appreciate your questions, but I think it’s important to focus on what really matters to the public.

I am deeply troubled by your responses today. You need to acknowledge that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. You avoided answering that question when asked by Senator Durbin. Additionally, you should clearly state that those involved in the January 6th insurrection who committed violence should not be pardoned. I don’t have to say what you want me to say. I speak the truth and won’t say anything just to gain confirmation. I will answer questions to the best of my ability.

Are you saying parents cause problems? Should someone in charge of family outreach be complaining about parents? I don't know what you're talking about. Is that me in that video? I have no idea. I have no comment, so stand back. You can keep your hands off me.

This past week, a record 1,500 commutations were granted, the highest number in a single day. Among those commuted were individuals involved in serious crimes, including a judge linked to a cash-for-kids scheme that imprisoned many, a man guilty of tax fraud costing over $1.6 billion, and a woman involved in a $26 million Medicare fraud scheme. Are you comfortable with these decisions? No, I’m not. There was also a man in Duluth running a major drug operation who had money hidden under his bathroom tiles that was commuted. I also disagreed with the pardon of the president's son.

The question of whether the president will pardon or commute his son Hunter's sentence if convicted has been addressed multiple times. The answer remains clear: no. Despite inquiries about any potential changes in the next six months, the stance is consistent. The president has firmly stated that he will not grant a pardon or commutation to his son. This position is definitive and will not change. The answer is still a no, and there is nothing further to add on this matter.

Have you ever heard of someone innocent receiving a preemptive pardon? It's typically reserved for those close to the president, like family or associates. Seeking such pardons raises questions about guilt; if someone is innocent, why would they need one? Preemptive pardons suggest that crimes may have been committed, even if not publicly known. If the president issues these pardons, it may be framed as protecting his family from external threats. The obsession with pardons indicates concern over potential criminal culpability. The idea of a permanent pardon raises further questions about accountability. If figures like Rudy Giuliani receive pardons, many would interpret that as an admission of guilt, questioning the necessity of such actions if there were no wrongdoing.

This interview may seem unusual due to anticipated social media reactions, so let's clarify some key points upfront to avoid baseless accusations. Have you ever received funding or gratuities from Pfizer or any vaccine-producing drug company? No. It's important to address this since such claims often arise, regardless of their truth. Have you ever received funding or gratuities from Pfizer or any vaccine-producing drug company? No.

I don't want a pardon. Accepting one implies guilt, and I'm not guilty of anything except revealing the truth about January 6th and exposing Donald Trump's inaction during that time. He may attempt to target others through various investigations, as seen with Brad Raffensperger in Georgia. While I wish to move on from this chapter of my life, if Trump brings it up again, I'm ready to discuss everything the committee uncovered.

I objected to obtaining flight records as it invades privacy. I am not the one on trial; those trying to steal the 2020 election are. My question remains. Translation: I opposed accessing flight records as it invades privacy. I am not the one being tried; those attempting to steal the 2020 election are. My question still stands.

President, how do you respond to Donald Trump calling himself a political prisoner and blaming you? Will his conviction affect the campaign? Should he be allowed on the ballot?

I will not comment on allegations regarding my family's business dealings. The claims are false. I did not interact with their business associates. There are many questions.

The speaker questions why Donald Trump would be considering pardoning a known sex trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell, and notes that there has been no satisfactory explanation from MAGA supporters. They point out that Maxwell abused kids and that Trump has already given her a “really nice prison… like a club fed,” and is now considering pardoning her. The speaker asks, “He said it. Yeah, I'd consider why? Okay, hey, would you consider pardoning Khalid Sheikh Mohammed? I bet he would say no to that, as he should. Would you consider partnering Ghislain Maxwell, a known sex trafficker who abused kids? I have to think about it. Why? Why Mago? Why? Why would he have to think about it?” They urge that, before mentioning Biden, one must explain why Donald Trump would consider it, insisting that Biden is not president and is not the answer. The speaker asserts that Biden wasn’t the one who made a big deal about releasing the Epstein files. In contrast, they claim Trump attacked Biden for not releasing the Epstein files, whereas Biden assumed DOJ was doing their job and Trump didn’t. The speaker maintains that Trump can release the Epstein files right now. They further state that if someone brings up Biden in response, the only acceptable way to do so without appearing to defend a sex trafficker would be to first answer the question: why would Donald Trump even consider it? The speaker ends by saying they look forward to reading the response.

Neither Mr. Bobolinski nor Mr. Galenis have heard of any offers of a pardon for those involved in the Biden Family Enterprise corruption investigation. Mr. Bobolinski confirmed this during the questioning.
