**Date: June 27, 2025**

The following statements by Omeed Malik, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Colombier Acquisition Corp. II ("Colombier"), and Donald Trump Jr., a consultant to Metroplex Trading Company LLC (doing business as GrabAGun.com) ("GrabAGun"), and a nominee to the Board of Directors of GrabAGun Digital Holdings Inc., a Texas corporation that will be the go-forward public company following the consummation of the proposed business combination that is the subject of the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2025, between GrabAGun and Colombier, were included in an interview on the Clay & Buck radio show on June 27, 2025.

Buck Sexton (00:00):

Thanks for being here, everybody. We're joined now by two buddies of ours who have important things to talk to you all about. Omeed Malik, he's the founder of 1789 Capital and Donald Trump Jr. Who is also involved with 1789 Capital. They're working hard on the parallel economy, working hard on Saving America. Gentlemen, appreciate you being with us. Thanks, and tell us what you're up to these days.

Omeed Malik (00:25):

Thanks. This is Omeed. Great to be with you guys again. You can hear me okay?

(00:32):

Beautiful. So what we're most excited about, there's a ton of stuff that we can talk about today, but most, I think imminently, we've talked about this before, what Don and I have been doing for almost five years now is trying to protect our constitutional rights in the private sector. Last time we spoke, I was talking to you guys about the First Amendment and transactional freedom with Public Square. While we're moving on now and we're going to try to protect the Second Amendment, which has definitely been under attack. As you guys know, we're taking a company called GrabAGun public just in a few weeks here. The deal's going to close on July 15th and ring the New York Stock Exchange bell right after that to have this company get over a hundred million of cash and to be a publicly traded company. It's basically like an Amazon of guns and ammunition. So we're super excited about it and that's what we've been making the rounds on. I wanted to talk to you and your listeners about.

Clay Travis (01:22):

That's awesome. We're talking to Omeed Malik 1789 Capital. Also Donald Trump, Jr. I saw you guys in DC recently and we're fired up. I mean, full disclosure, Buck and I are invested with 1789 Capital. We believe in a lot of what you guys are doing. You've now been. I'll address Donald Trump Jr. here, seeing the craziness since your dad came down that escalator about a decade ago, we had a big decision to make. Democrats did, Hey, are they going to be crazier or are they going to come back to sanity? It seems like they have double, triple and quadrupled down on crazy, which means these alternative investments, building new conservative American valued companies is even more of a great investment thesis going forward.

Donald Trump Jr. (02:10):

I think so, a hundred percent, guys, you guys have seen it. We've been talking about it. I mean, what my father and the administration has been doing, trying to stop the sort of politicization and weaponization of government, Omeed and I are trying to do in the private sector. For so long companies that things that followed the basic tenets of American freedom and liberty, they'd be shut down. The big guys on Wall Street wouldn't give them funding even if it was a great business because they didn't check off some boxes of some woke nonsense that's out there. So you can't just take care of the stuff from the government side. You also have to do it from the private sector. So I think taking a gun company public on the New York Stock Exchange, it's sort of an ultimate F you to some of the nonsense that we've seen out there that we have to combat, and you're a hundred percent right, Buck.

Buck Sexton (04:16):

Speaking to Omeed Malik and Don Jr. Of course, Don Jr., Donald Trump Jr's son, of 1789 Capital, they're telling us about GrabAGun.com new project they're working on that is going to revolutionize the online gun buying industry. But guys, Omeed, I want to put this to you. I remember, and I know you do too, what it was like just a few years ago in those dark days of the Biden administration, for example, when there was this sneer of whatever, conservatives build your own internet, build your own Amazon, build your own payment processors, talk if you could, about what we're seeing with the creation of that parallel economy, which is really just a free speech and capitalist economy, one that isn't overrun by Woke madness, but what are some of the steps that you are involved with or some of the projects that you see on the horizon where the business of the American people can be business again and not announcing their pronouns in every email?

Omeed Malik (05:12):

Well, I think the first thing is just going back to exactly, you were there right next to us helping us build this whole thing, but it all starts really the modern history of this issue with a company called Parlor. I don't know if you guys remember that company Parlor? Oh, yeah. Oh yeah. So one of our business partners was the main funder of that, a woman named Rebecca Mercer. It was exactly what you said back then we didn't have any of the social media companies. Facebook was against us. Remember, Twitter was totally against us, so there was really no outlet. So they used to say, well, if you don't like it, go build your own. So a bunch of conservatives did. They went and they started Parler. It became the number one social media app in the country, and in January of 21, 3 big tech companies colluded to destroy it.

(05:56):

Amazon, because of Amazon Web services and then Apple and Google because they then work together and let you download it on your phones, either the Android or the iPhone. And now the major question that I started thinking about at that time, and this is where Don and I really started getting going on this, was what if they were elements of the federal government that told them to do that, that they just didn't act as private companies, even though they're probably monopolies, and that's where you had this nexus for this joining of forces to really deprive us of our constitutional rights because that's the key. If the federal government was getting involved in using private companies to backdoor the suppression of speech, which by the way, all of us on our phone and your listeners know, they were definitely doing that during COVID.

Buck Sexton (06:38):

Oh, yeah.

Omeed Malik (06:39):

Yeah. So they were using private companies that went along with it, which they never should have to deprive us of our rights. It was at that point we knew we had to fight back, and one of the first steps in fighting back was what Don and his dad did with a company called Truth Social, which went public via SPAC. You saw the overwhelming success of that company and what that signaled to those of us who were financiers that wanted to do something was that people were so fed up, they weren't just going to vote at the ballot box. They're going to vote their dollars now too and support a company to go public. You then saw it with Rumble, which Don was one of the first investors in You then saw it with Public Square, which me and Don took public two years ago, and now you're seeing it again here with GrabAGun and this is how we're going to fight back.

(07:23):

It's by promoting and providing that financing that Don is talking about. That's how they were winning. They weren't allowing banks under the ESG paradigm to even loan to gun companies, even if they're profitable. So it's this uneconomic behavior that then provided the opportunity for us to push back. And by the way, it's totally capitalistic what we're doing. If you want to ruin your company and make it woke and only kind of cater to those random voices that we know are not the majority of the country, go ahead and keep doing that. It makes no sense. But Don and I, you guys and a bunch of the rest of us are going to join forces when we all became friends during the dark days of the Biden administration and provide the rest of the country options across the board in every aspect of their lives.

Buck Sexton (14:33):

Omeed and Don, great work. As always. Thanks for calling in to tell us about what you guys are up to. Keep it going and let's keep this economy roaring and keep the parallel economy growing alongside it. Thank you guys so much.

Donald Trump Jr. (14:44):

Thank you. Thanks a lot, guys.
