In a recent segment on Fox News’ MediaBuzz, host Howard Kurtz moderated a heated debate involving Clay Travis, founder of Outkick, and Leslie Marshall.
The main topic of discussion was the ongoing Hunter Biden investigation, especially now that Attorney General Merrick Garland has granted Attorney David Weiss special authority to further probe the president’s son.

Diving into the topic, Travis presented his theory: “When Joe Biden was overlooked in favor of Hillary Clinton, I believe he perceived his political trajectory nearing its end. He might have thought, ‘It’s time to monetize my career, given I may not have future political opportunities.’ Multiple instances point towards this theory: Tony Bobulinski’s claims of ’10 percent for the big guy,’ Hunter Biden’s alleged WhatsApp threats to his Chinese associates while purportedly sitting beside his father, the 20 phone calls, the Burisma prosecutor’s dismissal, and the overlooked $3.5 million payment from a Russian oligarch. To top it off, two IRS agents have given testimony under oath, which I believe lends credibility to these claims.”
As Travis outlined his arguments, Kurtz tried to interject multiple times, citing time constraints for the segment.
When he finally got a word in, Kurtz was firm in defending Biden: “I must highlight — and I appreciate your acknowledgment that this is a theory — that currently, there’s no conclusive evidence showcasing direct monetary transactions to President Biden. If such evidence emerges, his campaign would be in jeopardy.”
However, Travis was quick to counter, asserting, “Wait a minute! The evidence exists! While it might not be fully corroborated, the evidence I’ve presented is considerably credible.”
Kurtz, attempting to stonewall and deal with the obvious truth ended the segment by saying, “We can delve deeper into this topic once the evidence is corroborated,” and transitioned to the commercial break.
