They also mention an incident where an armed IRS team entered a gun shop in Montana, raising doubts about the necessity of such actions.

The conversation then shifts to the topic of gun control and the perceived unequal treatment of gun violations under the Biden administration. They discuss a case involving Hunter Biden, who received preferential treatment despite serious offenses, contrasting it with the harsh penalties faced by others in similar situations. They argue for stricter enforcement of existing gun control laws rather than implementing more regulations.

They question why Hunter Biden is only being prosecuted for tax fraud and not for corruption charges, despite evidence of unreported income.
