We're not short on takes about the search (or whatever you wanna call it) at Mar-a-Lago this week; but one can't ever get enough of people who know what they're talking about when it comes to something as big as this!

Ricochet's old friend Andy McCarthy joins to provide just that kinda commentary. He gives some essential vocab clarifications; lays out the charges he believes the Justice Department is actually seeking; and ponders how and when the ethos of the agency went awry – and how he thinks it could be brought back.

Also, Peter recounts how he felt right at home on the range. Plus he and James chat about the shows they "have to" watch and the stuff they can live without.

    Andy McCarthy reverts again to insisting the FBI/DOJ/etc are all rock-ribbed patriots in 3...2...1...

    It's just more projection, they're falsely accusing Trump of doing what the Clintons actually did: trading technology secrets etc, for campaign money and "donations" to the Clinton Foundation.

    The test is simple: If two FBI agents showed up at your door wanting to interview you without revealing why, would you answer their questions, even with a lawyer present?

    . . . and how he thinks it could be brought back.

    We don't want it back.
