Hour two Sean Hannity's Show, 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,239 Speaker 1: eight hundred and nine four one Sean, you want to 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: be a part of the program. It's always an honor, privilege, 5 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: and pleasure to welcome back to the program. Ohio Congressman 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan, the chairman of the all important House Judiciary Committee, 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: How are you, sir? How fine? Sean? Good to do 8 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: with you? Before we get to the important investigations that 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: you're you're leading up and they are important. Um, what 10 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: is your reaction to what's happening with these banks and 11 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: this proposed bailout of Biden? It sounds like he doesn't 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: want to even ask Congress for the money. What's your take? Well, 13 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: we we send me bailing people out who are above 14 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: the FDIC, you know, guarantee what the rules are now 15 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: for two thousand for FDIC insured. And I think second, 16 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: this is driven by the Biden inflation. I mean this 17 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: record inflation. My understanding is, and I don't tend to 18 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: be an expert in finance here, but my understanding is 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: that they had a number of treasuries. People started to 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: the treasuries at a low, low, low interest rate yield, 21 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: and um, the you know, people came to there were 22 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: people wanting to get their money out of the banks. 23 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: They come to take their deposits out, and so they 24 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: had to catch in a number of these treasuries at 25 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: a loss because of interest rates are now still much 26 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: tiger than they were, and they purchased them. They didn't 27 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: have the money to cover everything until it's sort of 28 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: like a run on the bank driven by the interest 29 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: rate inflation that that caused this situation. And of course, 30 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: as we all know that the federal government came in 31 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: and and they're in receivership what as a Friday afternoon. 32 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: So the people who have something two hundred fifty or left, 33 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: they should get covered, of course, because that's the rule. 34 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: But you start covering other folks above that, I think 35 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: that's that's that's scary to go down that road, which 36 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: sounds like where were you? Absolutely now that certainly Biden's 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: economic and his energy policies caused this rapid increase in inflation, 38 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: which resulted in the FED raising interest rates somewhat seventh 39 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: teen hundred percent in a very short period of time, 40 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: in about a year, and you're right. This bank had 41 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: invested very heavily in ten year treasuries and mortgage backed 42 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: securities and they had to sell them at a at 43 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: a significant loss of money. Now, there were people like 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: you know at JP Morgan and other financial institutions that 45 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: saw this coming because they were reading the bottom line. 46 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: They understood that they had made a terrible investment here, 47 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: uh and that this this was gonna you know, their 48 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: chickens were going to come home to roost. What concerns 49 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: me more than that is, like the business uh insiders headline, 50 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: Silicon Valley bank implosion in a single day could be 51 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 1: just the tip of the iceberg. And the Fed's prolonged 52 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: period of low interest rates created many financial dislocations that 53 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: are now beginning to start flaring up. What we have 54 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: two other banks now that are in trouble as well. 55 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 1: Uh So I've got to imagine that there's got to 56 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: be grave concern and Washington. And the question I have 57 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: is does Joe Biden have the ability unilaterally to make 58 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: that decision and spend money Because I always thought any 59 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: money that is spent has to go through and get 60 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: the approval of the legislative branch outs Congress. Well, it 61 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: sure does. And I was here my very first term 62 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: in Congress is back when we had the last banking 63 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: cris the mortgage backed securities back in two thousand and seven, 64 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: eight long and through there, and I didn't support that 65 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: bank bail out, the you know, the TARP program. I 66 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: thought that was a mistake and certainly that but that 67 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: at least went through Congress. It had to get approval 68 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: from Congress. I remember Hank Paulson coming and talking to 69 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: Congress all the time. So, yeah, the way our constitutional 70 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: system works is you got to the House in particular 71 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: has to start these spending measures. That's where the founders 72 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: wanted it because it was designed to protect we the people, 73 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: we the taxpayers across this great country. So yeah, he 74 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: can't do that. But this administration doesn't seem to care 75 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: a whole lot about the constitution. Frankly, we saw that. 76 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: We've seen that in the number of ways over the 77 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: last last several months, and of course we saw in 78 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: the big way last week in of hearing. We had 79 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: so watching the new Republican majority move at record speed 80 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: in terms of investigations that will long overdue the origins 81 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: of COVID nineteen. The disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Certainly, James 82 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: Cohmer's looking into the Biden family syndicate and their financial 83 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: dealings with some of our biggest geopolitical foes. You inside 84 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: the Judiciary have a number of investigations you're involved in, 85 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: including whether the FBI has been politicized and the dj weaponized. 86 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: I've interviewed FBI agents that are whistleblowers, and my understanding 87 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: is is a lot more to come. What are the 88 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: status of your investigations? Well, yeah, I thought we had 89 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: a great hearing last week in the Select Committee part 90 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: of the Judiciary where we had in two of the 91 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: journalists who had written about the Twitter files. And I 92 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 1: mean to step back and think about this for a second. 93 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: Sean last week, in a forty eight hour time period, 94 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: we had tux humor on the Senate floor, toughness and 95 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: say this and then also send a letter to Rupert 96 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: Murdoch saying foxtion or any of the footage from January stick. 97 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: The very next day, our committee releases a Republicans release 98 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: a report from the Judiciary Committee that says the FTC 99 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: was going after a private company, asking private company Twitter, 100 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: who were the journalists they had contact with in that correspondence, 101 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: In that communication from the FTEC to Twitter, they listed 102 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: four journals. Personally, two of them testified the very next 103 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: day in our committee last week, and in that committee hearing, 104 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: Democrats asked them who their sources were. All that happened 105 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: in a forty eight hour time series. By the way, 106 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: I have two questions regarding this. Number One, does zelam 107 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: must not have a right to privacy? A? And B. 108 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: Matt Taiebee, who is no fan of mine, even wrote 109 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: a book, you know, crushing me. You know, he was 110 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: being hammered left and right. Yeah, two Democrats, Matt Tybee 111 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: and Michael Sellenberger, but two Democrats who actually value the 112 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: First Amendment and of now Steve firsthand personally what the 113 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: left really wants to do, which is forget the First 114 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: Amendment and simply go after their political enemies. I mean, 115 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: this is frightening stuff. All that happened in a forty 116 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: eight hour time frame, and simply because these reporters working 117 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: with Twitter to expose the FBI and other federal agencies 118 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: pressuring big tech to limit the information that American people 119 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: got to see, and maybe most importantly, the information they 120 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,119 Speaker 1: got to see in the run up to the twenty 121 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: twenty presidential rate. So here's what I'd like an answer to. 122 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: So we know that the FBI had a copy of 123 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's laptop in December twenty nineteen, certainly plenty of 124 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: time to corroborate whether it was genuine, whether it was 125 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: his or not his. But the FBI also was aware 126 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: that Rudy Giuliani, the President's attorney at the time, also 127 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: had a copy. So I would assume they knew at 128 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: some point that this was likely going to be released publicly, 129 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 1: or at least parts of it. And so we have 130 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: the FBI set up, you know, a group of agents, 131 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: and their job is to warn people at these big 132 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: tech companies about the possibility of them being victimized by 133 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: foreign agents, foreign governments, of disinformation campaigns and the lead 134 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: up to the twenty twenty election. Now, if you go 135 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: to the case you brought this up, and I played 136 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: it on radio NTV, you brought up the point that 137 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: in Missouri, the Twitter site integrity chief Yoel Roth admitted 138 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: in fact that they were told specifically that some of 139 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: the disinformation might involve Joe Biden, it might involve Hunter Biden, 140 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: isn't that true? Yeah, yol Roth and his foreign declaration says, 141 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: I met weekly with these folks from from the federal government, 142 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: these different agents, the DHS, FBI, different ages. We met weekly. 143 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: They told me for a year in those weekly meetings 144 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: that there was likely to be a a hackadop operation. 145 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: It was likely to come beat in October, and see 146 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: it was likely to involve Hunter Biden. And I'm like, now, 147 00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: how did they know? I meancause they got the time, 148 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: that the method and the and the person. They got 149 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: them all right. Now, maybe they get the time right because, 150 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: as I said in committee last week, every four years 151 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: we expect some October surprise. But they had the method 152 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: and the person. They knew it was going to be 153 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: a hacking dump, it was going to happen in October 154 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. It was gonna involve Hunter Biden. How were 155 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: they clairvoyant? I mean, how did they know? Well? The 156 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: reason they know is what you just pointed out, Sean, 157 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: is because they had the laptop, which they knew was authentic, 158 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: and so they know it's out there and it's likely 159 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: at some point that's gonna get public. So they could 160 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: set this all up to make sure, it got depressed, 161 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: it got it got the circulation was pushed back on 162 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: and it didn't get out there. And then big media 163 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: followed what happened with big tech, and big media didn't 164 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: cover the story. And we know, we know, just as 165 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: sure as we're talking, that had an impact on the 166 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty presidential rate. Now they've had the laptop from 167 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: of Hunter for nearly three and a half years, and 168 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: there's been no action taken. Can you explain that to me? 169 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: I can. I cannot. No action from you see nothing 170 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: from dj FBI. You see, frankly nothing from Treasury because 171 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: you know, as you pointed out, Chairman Comer is trying 172 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: to get a hold of the suspicious activity reports, which 173 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: he believes they're around one hundred and fifty of those 174 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: about the banking transactions that were going on with the 175 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: Biden family business operation. So I do not know. Again, 176 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: I think in some ways it just underscores what we've 177 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: talked about for so many years now, this double standard. 178 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: You know, we saw it was the classified documents where 179 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: ninety one days before the election, the midterm election, they 180 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: raided President Trump's home and then they have the same 181 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: situation with Joe Biden before the election. We don't hear 182 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: anything about it until after the election. And yet they 183 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: knew they did it all before. They knew all about 184 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: it before the election, which would have been fair yea. 185 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: And the person apparently heading up the FBI effort to 186 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: be in touch with big tech companies, did that person 187 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: write and a thesis that argued that Donald Trump colluded 188 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: with Russia to win the twenty sixteen election. The guy 189 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: that was in charge of this whole operation, Elvis stan Is, 190 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: his graduate degree thesises on this very subject matter. Of 191 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: course he was he was interviewed in the case of 192 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: Missouri versus Biden, where now Senator then Attorney General Eric 193 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: schmidt Um was that case along with our former colleague 194 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 1: Jef Landry, attorney general from the state of Louisiana. And 195 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: you go through that deposition, you learn you learned the pressure. 196 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: Now they always say the FBI says, well, we didn't 197 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: We didn't tell Twitter they had to do this, and 198 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: these other social media companies they had to take things down. 199 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: We just told them what was going on, and ultimately 200 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: it was their decision. But that is bs the idea 201 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: that they're meeting with them weekly. We have emails where 202 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: they said, we think these these accounts, these tweets to 203 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: violate your terms of service. I mean, those are the 204 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: kind of things they were sending to these big tech 205 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: and the idea that they had to make, that that 206 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: they got to make the final decision just doesn't square 207 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: with what the pressure and the frequency with which they 208 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: were meeting and asking big tech to do things. So 209 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: let me ask this. We saw what happened in twenty 210 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: twenty with Hillary Clinton, prosecutor or prosecute and deleted emails. 211 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: Nothing happens to Hillary Clinton. We have the laptop from Hell, 212 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: they've had it for three and a half years. And 213 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: yet I read almost on a daily basis that it 214 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: is imminent that Donald Trump will be indicted in New York, 215 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: likely in Georgia, and maybe somewhere else on some other 216 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: issue involving I guess the special prosecutor. My question is, 217 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: is you believe that's the reality? Is that where we're 218 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,959 Speaker 1: now headed in an area we've never been to before, 219 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: Were they gonna indict a former president and a presidential candidate? Boy? 220 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: I hope not, you know, but I say this, I 221 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: never thought we'd see him raid the president's home like 222 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: they did, and you know, back ninety one days before 223 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: the midterm elections, back in August of last year. So 224 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: it's it's unbelievable what President Trump and his family have 225 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: had to endure, this non stop just attack on them 226 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: from from clear back in twenty six team when you 227 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: know when he's first running. So um, you know it's 228 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: all the way through Muller and everything else. The impeachment. 229 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: It peaks on the on the crazy phone call, which 230 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: is ridiculous. Um. But this is today's left. And if 231 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 1: you have a left that thinks that you shouldn't follow 232 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: the First Amendment, that it's okay for Democrat members of 233 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: Congress to go up to to to ask two members 234 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: of in the journalism world to accomplish members frankly award 235 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: winning journalists, to pressure them while they're under oath to 236 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: give away their sources. I mean, I guess I don't 237 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: know what what what we shouldn't be, UM, you know, 238 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: surprised at now from what we see from these folks. 239 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: So let's hope not um. But this is today's world. 240 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: It's why it seems like a fate to complete to me. 241 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 1: Do you read it the same way? I hope not. Um, 242 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 1: but it looks like that that may be the case, 243 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: particularly New York. Is I saw some things last week 244 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: with the with the grand jury all with that that 245 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: state case in New York. Maybe that's going to happen there. 246 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: But again, um, let's hope not. I don't even know 247 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: what the charges who would be about. It has to 248 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: do with I guess a non disclosure agreement payment to 249 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: Stormy Daniels. I think that's the case. Yeah. Do you 250 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: think that this is on purpose to prevent Donald Trump 251 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: or maybe to force him out of the race. Oh, 252 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: I think he's running. I don't. I don't think it matters. 253 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: What I mean, it matters, but I don't think it 254 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: matters in the context of whether he decides to run 255 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: or not. He's running, he said he's running, and if 256 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: and if there's some kind of crazy indictment that happens, 257 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: I think he's still running. And I think the American 258 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 1: people understand what's going on here, and they appreciate what 259 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: he was able to do while president. As you and 260 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: I talked about many time, Sean, I think he accomplished 261 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: more what he said he was going to get done 262 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: than any president, certainly in our lifetimes, but that maybe 263 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: ever and that's what so many people appreciate. I I 264 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: was in West Virginia other night talking and talking about 265 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: President Trump and people all cross this great country get 266 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,719 Speaker 1: what he did for our country. And how you know 267 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: the line I like so much because it's so true. 268 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: It is he says, they come after me talking President 269 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: Trump's at the Rallizy. They come after me because I'm 270 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: fighting for you. And the country understands that and appreciates 271 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: that that attitude that we had with that we have 272 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: with President Trump. Scary times if we politicize our justice 273 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: system and weaponize it and we have two standards of 274 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: justice in this country, pretty scary. And I know your 275 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: committee will get to the bottom of it in spite 276 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: of opposition and little cooperation.

All 334 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: the stuff that he's doing with the weaponizing the federal government. 335 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: He's telling a great story for America to wake up. 336 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 1: And everything he said about the hacking League and everything 337 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: he's doing, he's just he's just opening up our eyes 338 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: and he's just doing a great job. And he's making 339 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: the Democrats like missus Plaskett and miss Garcia I believe 340 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: her name, and Jerry Conley, they're just making him look 341 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: angry and bitter. I think he's been doing a phenomenal job. 342 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: He's been with us every step of the way. He 343 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: comes on radio as we just had and TV. As 344 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: often as we ask him, he's just he's just laying 345 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: it all out there. Now tonight we have Joe Tacopina 346 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: on the program. He's the President's attorney, and you know, shockingly, 347 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,479 Speaker 1: it looks like it's very real that there will be 348 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: indictments and an indictment handed down to Donald Trump on 349 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 1: what would always be a simple misdemeanor case. Now that's 350 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: not politicizing. Just in America, I don't know what is 351 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: going after one man, one company, one family, and campaigning 352 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 1: on it as has happened in New York with people 353 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: that have enormous amounts of powers is very chilling to me. 354 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: I would not be surprised if if Fulton County had 355 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: the same results as well. God forbid of your last 356 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 1: name's Trump or if you like Trump, you're in trouble. Scary, Yeah, Sean, 357 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: did he say that that the FBI pay Twitter three 358 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: point four million dollars? Three point five I believe is 359 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: the number. We don't know if other big tech companies 360 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: were paid. The timeline is very revealing. The FBI had 361 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: Hunters laptop in December twenty nineteen. They were very aware 362 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: that the president's lawyer Rudy Giuliani had a copy. They 363 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: were very aware that it was likely going to leak 364 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: before the twenty twenty election. This task force set up 365 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: by the FBI to have weekly conversations with big Tech 366 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: warning them about them possibly being victims of disinformation. That 367 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: that really did take place. And specifically when you look 368 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: at the Missouri case when Eric Schmidt was the the 369 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: AG in Missouri and he's now a Senator from Missouri. 370 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: In that case, it's very revealing because even the Twitter 371 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: site integrity head, a guy by the name of Joel Roth, said, Yeah, 372 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: they specifically mentioned these disinformation campaigns maybe about Joe Biden 373 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: or Hunter and Biden. Well, that sounds like they were 374 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: priming big tech what they knew would likely come out, 375 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: and that is Hunter's laptop and that led to the 376 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: censorship campaign in the weeks leading up to the presidential election. Now, 377 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: if that's not putting your finger on the scale of 378 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: an election, I don't know what is. And where does 379 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 1: that three point four million come from? Nope, from you, 380 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: the taxpayers. They don't they don't make money out of 381 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: thin air. I mean, I was laughable today to hear 382 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: that this is not gonna. Uh, the taxpayers are not 383 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: going to be bailing out the bank, but we're bailing 384 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: out the bank. Oh, you guys gonna all reach into 385 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: your own pocket and pay the billions of dollars to 386 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: bail out these banks. Are you kidding? We're paying for 387 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: that getting old? It's getting old. It's it's getting Listen 388 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: on China, Russia or Ran you know it's Umm, I'm 389 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: getting very worried. On the economy, I'm getting very worried. 390 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: And if we don't we don't change the course we're on, 391 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: the predictable result is right there in front of us. 392 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: You don't have to You don't have to be a 393 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: political scientist or an economic an economist or a farm 394 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 1: policy leader to figure it out. All right, my friend, 395 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: God bless you if you do have a good man 396 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 1: in Jim Jordan that we agree on for sure? Uh, 397 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: Thomas and New York Thomas, how are you glad you 398 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: called sir? Hey hey, Sean. A couple of points. First, 399 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: on Joe Biden proposing to raise taxes on the ridge. 400 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 1: You never see Democrats raise taxes when they control the House, 401 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: the Senates, or the presidency. It's only when they control 402 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 1: two thirds of the government. Here are two examples. Go 403 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: back to two thousand and eight. Obama on the campaign 404 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: promised to raise taxes on the rich. When he gets elected. 405 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: He as the House, the Senate doesn't raise taxes, actually 406 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 1: extends the Bush tax cuts. President President Biden for two 407 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: years had controlled the House. The Senate doesn't propose to 408 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: raise taxes only when the Republicans take over. The Republicans 409 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: need to stop saying, hey, this is going to hurt 410 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: the contrary. It's going to hurt a middle America. You know, 411 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: the rich pay more than the people that don't pay more. 412 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: What they need to do is they need to say 413 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: that the Democrats, Okay, why is it when you guys 414 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: are control, you don't raise taxes. The Democrats don't want 415 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: to raise taxes. They want to use it as a 416 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: talking point during the election that the Republicans are for 417 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: the rich because when they're in control, they never raise taxes, 418 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: and the Republicans fall for it. They need to call 419 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: them out on it. I don't see this Republican House 420 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: falling for it. I don't see it at all. That 421 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: is dead on arrival. These massive tax increases and this 422 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: insane six point nine trillion dollar budget. I think it's 423 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: dead on arrival. It's not going to happen. But Sean, 424 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: but my point is, when the Democrats are in control 425 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: of the House, the Senate, and the presidency, they never 426 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: proposed to race tax. That's not true, because they did 427 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: in the last Congress, and that's where the taxes went 428 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:30,360 Speaker 1: up on on oil, gas, coal, pensions, and corporations. So 429 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: they successfully. But not on individuals, not on the not 430 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: on their rich friends, not on the individuals, not not 431 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: on the millionaires and billionaires. They're talking about taxing on 432 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: individual million people. Well, I hate to tell you, but 433 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 1: you only have fifty percent of the country that even 434 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: pays income tax. The other fifty percent pays next to nothing. 435 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: And if you look at the top one percent, they 436 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: pay over seventy percent of the bill, the top ten 437 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: percent over ninety percent. Anyway, appreciate the call. Eight hundred 438 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: and nine four one, Sean our number if you want 439 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Randy in Arkansas, 440 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: you're on the Sean Hannity Show. Glad you called. Hey, Sean, 441 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: great to have a chance to talk to you from 442 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: the free state of Arkansas. Thank you, my friend. What's 443 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: going on. I just got a quick question for you. 444 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: I want to know who was the judge's name or 445 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: were there more than one judge for the FISI Court. Yes, 446 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: the answer is the FISI Court judges are picked directly 447 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: by the Chief Justice in this case, John Roberts, and 448 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: there is a term in which they served in that 449 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,360 Speaker 1: capacity and then they move on to other judges. How 450 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: many was there more than one with the four I 451 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,479 Speaker 1: believe there actually was? Yes, Well, the reason being is 452 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: the guy's got the people that presented this. We're basically 453 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:57,479 Speaker 1: getting away with stealing ying to a judge. Yeah, you know, 454 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: but the judge has got the ability to pull their 455 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 1: butts back out on the carpet and say, hey, you 456 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 1: lied to me. You know that he's the one person 457 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: that kid hold these people accountable if it look listen 458 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: that actually part of the law even goes further than that. 459 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: If remember the top of a FISA application says verified. 460 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: And if you if you find out later, remember like 461 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: people like come and Rod Rosenstein and all these people 462 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: that signed these FISA applications, you know, were asked by 463 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: Lindsey Graham, all of them knowing what you know, now, 464 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: would you sign that FISA application. They all said no, 465 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: but if you discover part of what you used as 466 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: information or evidence it turns out not to be true, 467 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: you have an obligation to immediately inform the fiz Accord. 468 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe was the one that said 469 00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: without the dirty Russian disinformation dossier paid for by Hillary, 470 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: they never would have had those FISA applications approved. But 471 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: remember in early October they offered Christopher Stile a million 472 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: dollars if he could verify his own dossier. He never 473 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: collected because he could couldn't verify it. By the end 474 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: of October, they used it as the bulk of information 475 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: to get the FISA warrant approved. So they knew that. 476 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: That to me shows intend that they knew damn well 477 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: that what they were presenting was not true or not 478 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 1: very certainly not verified. Now we know it's unverifiable, right, 479 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: That's that's correct. But I've done it kind of a 480 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: little search. But you gotta understand the Democrats and they 481 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: have nothing to worry about. Well, I want to know 482 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: who the judge was, and if you do a search there, 483 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: I don't think this is common knowledge. Who who was 484 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: presiding over this FISA chord at some point I remember 485 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: looking and talking about it. I just don't remember the 486 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: specifics of it. I mean, we got really deep into 487 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: the weeds in this, and certainly that was one thing. 488 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: Those judges that were lied to had every ability to 489 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 1: bring them back in court and challenge them right by 490 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: the way, you see. But if it's you or me, 491 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 1: or Donald Trump or somebody with the last name Trump, 492 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: they would have gotten called back in right right.

Steve Moore, our economic guru at the top 500 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: of the hour. As we continue three hours a day. 501 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: It is all we ask on the Sean Hannity Show, 502 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: So please join us, but just don't be late.

Denny, 505 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: how are you? Thanks? For taking listen to you for 506 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 1: about twenty years and I record you every night, so 507 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: I appreciate what you do. You're a real vo our country. 508 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: I appreciate your vote of confidence. I can't do it 509 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: without you, and I never forget that. Thank you, sir. 510 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: I'd like to talk about the unrealized tacks that they're 511 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: that they've brought up again and I unrealized capital gains 512 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: tax yes, yes, And Steve Moore is a real expert 513 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: on this, so I wish you would verify it with him. 514 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: They talked about in the last couple of days how 515 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: that's going to affect the stock market and buying stocks 516 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: and whatnot. You know, we've heard the phrase by twenty thirty, 517 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: you will own nothing and you will like that, and 518 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: I always wonder how are they going to do that, 519 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: and if they apply this to personal property, this is 520 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: how they're going to do it, and it's going to 521 00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: affect Democrats, Republicans, everybody in the country. Thanks. Steve was 522 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: on last week. He's going to be on at the 523 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: top of the hour more about the banking issue. And 524 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: just so people understand, an unrealized capital gain is an investment. 525 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: Let's say you have a thousand shares of McDonald's stock, 526 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: and it's worth one hundred thousand dollars and you bought 527 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: it at eight hundred thousand dollars, right, I'm sorry, eighty 528 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. So the government would tax you on what 529 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: the value is at the end of the tax year, 530 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: and that would show two hundred thousand dollars net increase 531 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: in your wealth. Again the capital gains. This is money 532 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: you've already paid taxes on. So but maybe by the 533 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: time you sell it it's only worth fifty thousand dollars. 534 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: Do you get your taxes back that you paid? And 535 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: why does the government get to keep it that long? 536 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 1: This is insanity? Yeah, well, let me apply this to 537 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: our personal property. Let's say I have a house that's 538 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: worth three hundred thousand dollars, which is probably below the 539 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: national average, and inflation kicks in and all of a sudden, 540 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: in one year, my house is worth ten percent more. 541 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: I have to pay personal property taxes or I have 542 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: to pay taxes on thirty thousand dollars because my house 543 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: increased by thirty thousand. That would be your math would 544 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: be dead on, correct sir? So how many people you 545 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: said a little while ago that two thirds of the 546 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: people are living paycheck to paycheck. Probably half of those 547 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: people own homes of some kind or another. How are 548 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: we going to kick in another six hundred dollars a 549 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: month to pay that tax? And I'm just I am 550 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: guessing for practicality purposes, they'll probably have to remove, you know, 551 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: prime residences from that requirement. But if you owned a 552 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: second home, it probably would kick in there. Well, I 553 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: hope so. And that's what you need to verify and 554 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: to carry this further. If it does apply to everything, 555 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: thank you. Well, remember there's no bill to read yet, 556 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: so I can't I can't give you an answer. I 557 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 1: don't know for sure. Let's say we have a career 558 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: farmer that's owns two thousand acres, which in the bread 559 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: basket of America is reasonable. They may be second generation 560 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: and this land is worth ten thousand dollars an acre, 561 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: and this this increases by an inflationary ten percent, and 562 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: it's their primary residents. They would have to be an 563 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: exemption for farmers or ranchers. Oh, we won't have any 564 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: farmers or ranchers. It's gonna be like Yellowstone the series. 565 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: They want to come in and take it come hell 566 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: or high water. I don't want to cut you short. 567 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: But you're making great points, Denny, and you're thinking, you know, 568 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: you're thinking the right way. You're understanding the massive impact 569 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: this is going to have on our economy. And it's scary, 570 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: It just downright scary. We have Steve Wore at the 571 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: top of the hour. We'll talk to him about this. Obviously, 572 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: the banking you know, collapse, and so much more coming up. 573 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: But you raise good points. Thank you. Hey, listen to 574 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: number one killer among infants is still abortion. If you 575 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: if you believe in the sanctity of life, if your 576 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: pro life, you're gonna love this group Preborn Now. They 577 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: have a website preborn dot com slash sean that's their website. 578 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: And what they do is they don't get any government 579 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: money like Planned Parenthood, but they're using the science of ultrasound, 580 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: especially new technology ultrasound, and they give free ultrasounds to 581 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: expecting moms and they find that people that might be 582 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: leaning towards abortions when they when they see what's growing 583 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: inside them and they see fingers and toes and facial 584 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: features and hear a heartbeat, that the odds are much 585 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: much higher that they're gonna bring that baby to term. Anyway, Um, 586 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: once people hear that heartbeat and see those fingers and toes, 587 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it's amazing. And their goal, by the way, 588 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: it's to stop the nearly one million abortions every year 589 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: in this country alone and use the science of ultrasound 590 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: to save these lives. Anyway, if you'd like to donate 591 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: to this great cause, it's only possible because of your generosity. 592 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: Just dial pound two fifty, say the keyword baby, pound 593 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: two fifty, keyword baby, or on their website preborn dot 594 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: com slash sean and you are going a long way 595 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: of standing by your belief in the sanctity of life.
