1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,640 Speaker 1: The story that I'm about to tell you is one 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:06,239 Speaker 1: that should be unbelievable in the United States of America. 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: What I'm about to tell you, especially after we knew 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,320 Speaker 1: what was going on with Hunter Biden's business dealings and 5 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: who he was connected with with his business dealings, what 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: I'm about to tell you, it should be unimaginable that 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: somebody would actually pull this off in our government. This 8 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: story should be a story that immediately should have been 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: shot down from the White House saying this is absurd, 10 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: this has never happened, this is being this is ridiculous, 11 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: except it's not, because it's real. What we now know 12 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: is that Joe Biden, the President of the United States 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: of America, sold nearly one million barrels of our oil 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: from the US Strategic Petroleum reserves to the Chinese Communist 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: Party and their owned oil company that has direct ties 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: to Hunter Biden's firm. Now, I wish I was lying 17 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: to you. I wish I would this was not true. 18 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: But at this point, I think it's very clear that 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: this White House says we are invincible, we can do 20 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: whatever we want to do, and we just don't care 21 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: if the American people find out we are going to 22 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: whore out this White House. You have a president of 23 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: the United States of America who actually put a Medal 24 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: of Freedom award on an individual with the White House 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: yesterday backwards and didn't notice it, and then shook the 26 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: man's hand and then took pictures of the man while 27 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: his medal is on backwards, so the actual medals on 28 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: his back and there's nothing hanging in front of him, 29 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: and the president didn't notice it as he put the 30 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: metal on the dude. Okay, Now that's how the incompetency 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: level of our president is in this country. And the 32 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: entire room was like, are you kidding me? You could 33 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: hear it in the room. The audio that was released 34 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: was very clear the president had no idea he put 35 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: a medal on this guy backwards and send their sending 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: pictures shaking his hand, clearly seeing the medals on hanging 37 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: down it's behind his back, and the President of the 38 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: United States America didn't even notice anything was wrong. That's 39 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: what the rest of the world seeing, and that's what 40 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: this country he's seeing. And now we understand that he's 41 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: clearly not running this presidency and what he is is 42 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: nothing more than a guy that's basically alive. President Joe 43 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: Biden's administration clearly being run by everyone else but him 44 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: and his son, by the way, happened to be at 45 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: the same signing or the same awards ceremony I just 46 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: told you about. Yes, Hunter Biden actually was getting a 47 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: front row seat at the White House Medal of Freedom ceremony. 48 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: Apparently he need to be there to get some work done. 49 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: The President's son, Hunter Biden, received a front row sea 50 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: at the White House Medal of Freedom ceremony held on Thursday. 51 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: I guess he had to bring somebody in get some 52 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: deals done, or maybe he had to talk about all 53 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: the oil they're selling to the Chinese Communist Party that's 54 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: supposed to be going to help the American people. And 55 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: this could have been a reason to get in the 56 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 1: White House, right, great cover story. Hey, Dad, need to 57 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: get to the White House for this Medal of Freedom 58 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: awards ceremony because we got to talk about selling more 59 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: barrels of oil to the Chinese Communist Party in the 60 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: US from the US rate or petroleum reserves. I wish 61 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: that I am when I say this, and you can 62 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: hear I'm having a hard time to find the words. 63 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: I can't get my head around this. Even now, knowing 64 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: everything that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden have done, I 65 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: still cannot get my head around the idea that they 66 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: have actually sent nine hundred and fifty thousand barrels, basically 67 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: a million barrels of oil to the Chinese Communist Party, 68 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 1: specifically to a state owned gas company that has financial 69 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: ties to Hunter Biden. I still can't get my head 70 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: around it, because I would think even they would not 71 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: have would not do this. There was a there was 72 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: a very slim part of me, a small sliver of 73 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: hope that after all the news had come out because 74 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: of his laptop, that even they would think to themselves, hey, 75 00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: we can't do this now. Releasing this million barrels of 76 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: day of oil is supposed to be staying in America. 77 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: It's supposed to be lowering artificially the price of gas 78 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: at the pump and lowering your pain at the pump. 79 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: That's why they're doing it, obviously, that's actually not why 80 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: they're doing it. They're doing it so they can make 81 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: money off of it. They're doing it so Hunter Biden 82 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: can make money off it. They're doing it so Joe 83 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: Biden can make money off it, and I think what 84 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: you're seeing now is the family as just decided we're 85 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,119 Speaker 1: gonna whore out our dad to the very last breath 86 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: he takes. We got to get what we can because 87 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: as soon as it is he's no longer the president 88 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: or no longer alive, we can't make any money. Right 89 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: so we have maximum access to the US government policies 90 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: right now, more than we ever have, and we were 91 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: houring him out as the vice president or as a 92 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: senator with his brother, right this is this is maximum 93 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: possibility to make money. So we're gonna do it. So 94 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: back in April, the Biden Administration's Department of Energy announced 95 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: that nearly one million barrel sale to Unipeck, which is 96 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: the trading arm of Cinepec. Cinepac is wholly owned and 97 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: operated by the Chinese Communist Party. Unipac reportedly purchased oil 98 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: across the globe and then apparently sells it through its 99 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: Cinepec marketing subsidiary, according to unipex LinkedIn page. So this 100 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: is all out there and you can see these connections 101 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: like it's on their page. Unipec America is a wholly 102 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: owned subsidiary area of China International United Petroleum and Chemical 103 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: Company Limited, better known as UNIPAC. UNIPAC is the trading 104 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: arm of Cinepec, currently the number two largest company on 105 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: the Global Fortune five hundred list. That's what it's said 106 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. Now that's on their LinkedIn page. Go 107 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: look at it yourself. Biden's son Hunter Biden, and this 108 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: has all come out specifically from his laptop and from 109 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: other business dealings that have been exposed. Has financial time 110 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: to the Chinese Communist Party owned at Centepec, a private 111 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: equity firm Hunter Biden co founded reportedly purchased nearly two 112 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: billion dollars steak in Cinepec marketing back in two thousand 113 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: and fifteen. So this isn't just a little bit of money. 114 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: We're talking about billions they're playing with now billions. Biden 115 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: has connected Centepec through his BHR Partners, is private equity 116 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: firm he co founded in twenty thirteen. Member in twenty thirteen, 117 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: his dad was obviously, you know on point. He's the 118 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: vice president, and they're hohouring out the White House, and 119 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: they're whoring out the Vice President's office, and they're whoring 120 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 1: out the American government, and they're making a ton of money. 121 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: How much money they make him will enough money that 122 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: this firm that he's a you know, co founder of, 123 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: bought a one point seven billion dollars steak in the 124 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party's CENTEPEC marketing. Hunter Biden was able to 125 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: get his hands on one point seven billion dollars. Folks, 126 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: you think he gets that money if his dad isn't 127 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: the vice president, there's not some shitty deals being done. 128 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: Think about it. Biden, in fact, at one point owned 129 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: a ten percent steak and BHR Partners through his wholly 130 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: owned firm that he had his LLC. So if you're 131 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: spending one point seven billion, you've got ten percent of that. 132 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: We're talking hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, it's unclear 133 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: whether the younger Biden still has a financial stake in 134 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: BHR Partners. Why because even though during the campaign, even 135 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: though during the election the White House promise that the 136 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: Sun was going to sell off all his financial stakes 137 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: in Chinese own companies, they never confirmed it. They just 138 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: lied to us. Biden's White House has actually repeatedly claimed 139 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: three twenty twenty twenty that Hunter Biden was out of 140 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: the equity firm but Chinese corporate records show that he 141 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: still has a stake in the company. In other words, 142 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: they just lied to us and knew that the media 143 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: would cover it up. Biden's White House has dodged questions 144 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: continuously coming in from conservative members of the media about 145 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's steak in BHR directing the press on Hunter 146 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: Biden's representatives saying he's a private sys and we don't 147 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: have to answer your questions. So then all of a sudden, 148 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: you wake up and bam, Hunter Biden's on the front 149 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: row at the Congressional Medal of you know, honor, you 150 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: know ceremony they're having. He's sitting there right after almost 151 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: a hundred million barrels or excuse me, nine hundred fifty 152 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: thousand barrels of oil have just been sold to the 153 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: company that he had a massive steak in or still 154 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: has a massive steake in China. Now, if you took 155 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden out of this, by the way, and you 156 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: just had a headline that Joe Biden sells our strategic 157 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: oil reserves are supposed to be for a national security 158 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: to China, which is not helping the American people, right, 159 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: because we need the oil price to go down. It 160 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: doesn't do us any good if it goes to China. 161 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: That would be a scandal on its own. It's the 162 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: fact that we sold it directly the company that his 163 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: son has been making money with in China, with the 164 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party. The question you have to ask yourself 165 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: now is how much dirt does China have on Joe 166 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: Biden for them to take this risk and do this now. 167 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: Last night there was a conversation about this with three 168 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: different people. One former congressman. Two Congressman James Comer said this, 169 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: listen about Hunter Biden. Congressman Comer, you know, Hunter Biden 170 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: has been prancing around the White House as if there's 171 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: nothing wrong. I used to chair the committee that you're 172 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: about to chair. Tell us about where you're being stone 173 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: walled with this Hunter Biden investigation. Well, we found out 174 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: that Hunter Biden has had one hundred and fifty suspicious 175 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: activity reports filed against various accounts that he and Jim Biden, 176 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: the President's brother, have. That's unprecedented, Jason, A normal person 177 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: America never has any bank violations. Less than one tenth 178 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: of one percent of people ever have any bank violations. 179 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: They've had one hundred and fifty, which I would say 180 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,599 Speaker 1: is more than any person in the history of America. 181 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: These are the most serious banking violations you can have. 182 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: There's suspicion of money laundering, suspicion of receiving money from 183 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: terrorist groups, suspicion of money from bad actors in foreign countries. 184 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: Before Joe Biden became president under the Obama adminstration, in 185 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: the Bush administration, any member of Congress could go to 186 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: the Treasury Department and request suspicious activity reports. These were 187 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: put into place again to catch fundling money to terrorist 188 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: sales in the United States. I mean, it's unheard of. 189 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: He's had one hundred and fifty of these violations. Once 190 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: we determined this, then I went to Treasury requested the 191 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,839 Speaker 1: stars one Hunter Biden. They said, no, we changed the rules. 192 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: You can't do that anymore. This started getting pressed. We 193 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,599 Speaker 1: started leaking out that the Treasury Department was stolen on 194 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: on this. Then they came back and said, okay, we'll 195 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: make an exception. If you can get a single Democrat 196 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: to sign on the request with you, then we'll give 197 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: you the request. And obviously, Jason, as you can imagine, 198 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: no Democrats are interested to sign it on one hundred 199 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: suspicious activity reports. These are reports that come up when 200 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: you're dealing with terrorism, money laundering, suspicion receiving money from 201 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: terrorist groups, suspicion of money from bad actors in foreign countries. 202 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: And Hunter Biden's bank accounts and his uncle's bank acounts. 203 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty of these have come against him 204 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: while his dad's been the vice president and or the president. 205 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: They want to get him and guess what, Oh no, no no, 206 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: you got to find a Democrat to get to sign on. 207 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: Otherwise you can't see the information. So if you take 208 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: just a step back here and you look at this, 209 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: the Biden administration, this is a fact now sold a 210 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: million barrels of our oil from the strategic petroying reserves 211 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: to a Chinese communist oil coming that Hunter Biden has 212 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: financial ties to during an energy crisis. How is that 213 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: not impeachable offense? How is that not somehow unimpeachable moment 214 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 1: where you say, okay, it's that Hunter Biden is running 215 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: this White House or Joe Biden isn't running, or maybe 216 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: he is, but they're hohouring it out because apparently they 217 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: just don't care. They don't care Now this is the 218 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: same White House who has said, oh well, he'll get 219 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: rid of all of its financial ties. Listen to what 220 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: Jesse Waters had to say about this on Fox as well. 221 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: Fox News Alert. Joe Biden sold nearly a million barrels 222 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: of oil to a Chinese gas company that his son 223 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 1: Hunter may still indirectly own a steak in. This is 224 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: according to the Washington Free Beacon. The Biden administration announced 225 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: in April they were selling strategic petroleum reserve barrels to 226 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: the Chinese state owned oil company Unipec, also known as 227 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:51,599 Speaker 1: sign Apec, but in twenty fifteen, Hunter's firm BHR but 228 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: a nearly two billion dollars steak in Sinopec. In November, 229 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: Hunter's attorney claims he divested his steaks and his Chinese holdings, 230 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: but as of March, Chinese records still listed him as 231 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: a ten percent owner in the firm VHR Partners, which 232 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,719 Speaker 1: in Georgetown. By the way, HR Partners, if he still 233 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: owns a ten percent steak in, it would be worth 234 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: we assume, based on what they own, tens of millions, 235 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: if not more than one hundred million dollars. So if 236 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: you have this much financial steak and you're involved with 237 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: these types of shady people like the Chinese Communist Party 238 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: in this oil company, and all of a sudden, you 239 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: have the power, as the president knights It's America, to 240 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: direct where strategic oil reserves are going. And you send 241 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: them for the strategic petroleum reserves, and you do a 242 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: deal with the Chinese Communist Party and you send it 243 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 1: directly the firm and only to the firm that Hunter 244 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,359 Speaker 1: Biden has a ten percent steak in this big conglomerate, 245 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: right through his firm, which they said he was going 246 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: to divest in. He never did. This is a lot 247 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: of money that Hunter Biden just made. No wonder he's 248 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: sitting front wrote the White House. I guess that's like, 249 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, hey, hey crackhead, come on over today. You're 250 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: gonna come to the Medal of Freedom of wore. Good job, 251 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: a little buddy. You made. You made the family, You 252 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: made the crime family a lot of money. You made 253 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: the Biden crime family a big deal off of this 254 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: while Americans are suffering, and while you can't afford to 255 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: do things that you normally can afford to do, while 256 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: you are suffering, and we're supposed to be making things 257 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: better we were able to distract the American people and say, okay, 258 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: we'll release a million barrels a day. And when we 259 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: release out a million barrels a day, here's the best part. 260 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: We'll get to sell some to the Chinese. The same 261 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: Chinese people that you're involved in. Well, it will sell 262 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: them a million barrels in the US reserves to the 263 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party owned company link to Hunter Biden firm directly. 264 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: We'll make some money. Let's do it. Let's go. This 265 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: is amazing. I wonder how much the White House is 266 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: gonna have to worry about answering questions. Probably not much, 267 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: because the media doesn't cover this professor value to be 268 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: worth a cool twenty million dollars. The sale happened in April. 269 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: As of this moment, we can't say for sure that 270 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: Hunter has an ownership stake in this company, nor can 271 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: we say that he directly profited from the sale. But 272 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: what's indisputable is this Hunter Biden is not a Chinese economist. 273 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: He's not a Chinese energy expert. The only reason why 274 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: the Chinese would cut him in to their company is 275 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: so that he can pedal influence back in Washington with 276 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: his Dad and get them really great deals. And you 277 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: know what, it looks like he did his job. It 278 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: looks like he did his job. I go back to 279 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: that recording of Hunter Biden back in the day right 280 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: where he's asked that big question about, Hey, would you 281 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: be getting any of these deals if your last name 282 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: wasn't Biden? He said no, probably not. CBS even this morning, 283 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: CBS News was asked a question or asked or exposed 284 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: the Biden finances under scrutiny now and a letter has 285 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: now been obtained by CBS News to the Treasury Department 286 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: calling for a probe, and they gave it a whole 287 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. Now, CBS News was the exclusive on what 288 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm about to give you. Okay, they're the exclusive. They 289 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: had it first, and they gave it thirty seconds of airtime. 290 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: That's it. Based on our investigative units reporting, the US 291 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: Attorney in Delaware has been probing a number of issues. 292 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: They include tax fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, as well 293 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: as whether Hunter James Biden and their business associates complied 294 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: with foreign lobbying laws. What I can also tell you 295 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: based on our reporting, is that there's a lot of 296 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: noise and static in the system. Based on my experience, 297 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: that can be an indicator of conversations and discussions between 298 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: the two parties on whether they can reach some kind 299 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: of plea agreement. That's it, that's all they give you. Right. 300 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: The CBS News has a letter that they've obtained saying 301 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: about the Treasury Department that they have one hundred and 302 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: fifty times his bank accounts, that the sirens have gone off, 303 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: that he's doing something wrong right the side, that this 304 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: is going wrong, and the Press secretary comes out on 305 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: Biden's voice about a hunter Biden where we now know 306 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: he's involved in the Chinese deals, saying, I'm not going 307 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: to talk about alleged material from the laptop because he's 308 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: a private cisiens sitting front row at the White House 309 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: for this award ceremony. But we're gonna act like he's 310 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 1: somehow separate from the White House even though he's the 311 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: president's son. Why is there a voicemail of the President 312 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: talking to his son about his overseas business dealings. If 313 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: the President has said he's never spoken to his son 314 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: about his overseas business, Well, first, I'll say that what 315 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: the President said stands so if he if that's what 316 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: the president said, that that is what stands and second secondly, 317 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: but secondly secondly, business dealings, He says, I think you're clear. 318 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: How is that not him talking to his son about 319 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: his overseas business deals. We're not from this podium. I 320 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: am not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop. 321 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: I will, I'm not I'm not going to talk about 322 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: alleged materials on the laptop. Or it's not not Peter, 323 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: I refer you to his son's representative. There. It is 324 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: one person in the media brave enough to even ask 325 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: a question, and after that everybody else shut up. You 326 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: got one hundred and fifty different times and his bank 327 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: account's been flagged for connections to either domestic terrorists, foreign 328 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: terrorism bad actors, terrorist states, foreign adversaries, one hundred and 329 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: fifty different transactions folks, meaning none of his business dealings 330 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: are legitimate. They're all illegitimate, They're all just selling access 331 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: to US government. And then all of a sudden, you 332 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: got nine fifty basically million barrels of oil being sold 333 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:03,239 Speaker 1: the Chinese Communists Party not helping Americans. That alone, right 334 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: there is in the peachable offense in my mind, you 335 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: have a you have And again I'm gonna quote Joe 336 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: Biden here. Joe Biden says we are at war. He 337 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: said that in a tweet. He said we're in a 338 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 1: time of war. And he said this over the weekend 339 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: in a tweet. So he attacked the gas station saying, 340 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: we are at a time of crisis, in a time 341 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: of war, so please lower your prices. What's he doing 342 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: while he's accusing gas station small business owners and nine 343 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: point nine percent of gas stations in America are not 344 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: owned by corporations. They're single party LLCs. There's just mom 345 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: and pop businesses. They make more money off the candy 346 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: bar they sell you than they do the gas that 347 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 1: they put that you put in your take. And he 348 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: tries to attack them, put on them, they're the ones 349 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: are screwing you, not us. And while he's saying that 350 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: we're in a time of war and a time of crisis, 351 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: and he points the finger that the mom and pops 352 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: and says, you're the bad guys. He's actually selling oil 353 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party. It's not helping us. That alone 354 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: should be an impeachable offense. But the media refuses to 355 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: cover how big of a story this corruption is? In fact, 356 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, and this came out a few weeks ago. 357 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: I played it for you here. There was a there 358 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 1: was a very little headline that came out the Hunter 359 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: Biden frequently covered the family expenses Texas. Text messages now 360 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: revealed these were new from his laptop, and there was 361 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: a little internet TV show out of DC called The 362 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: Rising connected to the Hill, which is the insider newspaper 363 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: in DC who said this. Over the weekend, we learned 364 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: that Hunter's lucrative business dealings often included giving as much 365 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: as fifty percent of his earnings to his dad, President 366 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. According to text messages on the old laptop, 367 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: the text read quote, I hope you all can do 368 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: what I did and pay for everything for this entire 369 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: family for thirty years. Hunter legendly said to his daughter 370 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: Naomi in twenty nineteen, quote, it's really hard, but don't worry. 371 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: Unlike Pop, I won't make you give me half your salary. 372 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: Pop is in reference to the president. Pop is in 373 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: reference to the president. So there it is. Can you 374 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: imagine if I go back to this scenario here? But 375 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: can you imagine if Don Junior had one hundred and 376 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: fifty different times as bank accounts popped. Right, We're popped 377 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: by the US government for suspicious activity. Can you imagine? 378 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: I go back to NBC News. Remember when NBC News 379 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: analysis of Hunter Biden's hard drive show he in his 380 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: firm took in eleven million dollars and shady deals that 381 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: you robbed. You still robbed the bank. The President's son 382 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: and his company brought in about eleven million dollars between 383 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen and twenty eighteen working as an attorney, a 384 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: board member to a Ukrainian gas company accused of dribing 385 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: a prosecutor, and for a joint venture involving a Chinese 386 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: businessman now accused of fraud. According to an NBC News 387 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: analysis of a copy of Biden's hard drive and iCloud 388 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: account obtained by NBC from a representative for Rudy Giuliani, 389 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: as well as documents released by a Senate committee during 390 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: the campaign, then candidate Biden denied his son profited off 391 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: a China connection. My son has not made money in 392 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: terms of this thing about what are you talking about China? 393 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: The records show Hunter Biden's company received nearly five million 394 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: dollars in consulting contracts from that joint venture funded by 395 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: a Chinese energy company. A snapshot of hunter biden spending 396 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: shows that for about five months in late twenty seventeen 397 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: and early twenty eighteen, he spent more than two hundred 398 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: thousand dollars a month on things like luxury hotel rooms, 399 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: cash withdrawals, dental work, and payments on a Porsche. According 400 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: to documents on the hard Drive, a time period in 401 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: which hunter Biden has acknowledged struggling, he was struggling with drugs. 402 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: So there's you're out. You heard there at you he 403 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: struggling at time, he admits he was struggling with drugs. 404 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: So Hunter Biden disappears right, we don't see him anywhere 405 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: then bam. Hunter Biden caught on camera at the White 406 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: House sitting front row at the Medal of Freedom Award 407 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 1: Chairminet guess you get that your prize? Hey, kid, come 408 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: on out right, come on out, kid. We want to 409 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: have you at your dad's so proud of you for 410 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: making this deal with China done. We want you to 411 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: come out and we want you to sit there. We 412 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: want you to sit down and have this conversation with US. 413 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: CBS News eleven hours ago updated their story, and I'm 414 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: going to play this for you because they've just updated 415 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: it now to be a little bit longer. House Republicans say. 416 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: This is their headline now buried on their website that 417 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: I was just able to finally find right where it says. 418 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: House Republicans say Treasury won't hand over Hunter Biden documents 419 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: unless Democrats join the request. Now, CBS News Online had 420 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: this story. All right, this is the first time I've 421 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: even heard this story because of course it's online. This 422 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: isn't national news playing on TV. This is on their website. Listen, 423 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 1: there is fresh scrutiny this morning on the president's one 424 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden. CBS News obtained a letter from House Republicans 425 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: demanding Treasury Secretary Danny Yellen share information about his alleged 426 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: suspicious foreign business dealings. It also accuses the Biden administration 427 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: of stonewalling the GOP led investigation. So Senior investigative correspondent 428 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: Katherine Herriage has been following this closely and joins US Now, So, Catherine, 429 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: what are these suspicious activity reports? What are they talking about? Well, 430 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: they go by the acronym stars and their financial transactions 431 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: Anne Marie that require further review, their flag for further 432 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 1: review by the bank. It can be based on the 433 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: amount of money involved, something they call velocity, how quickly 434 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: a deposit is made to an account, and then how 435 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: quickly it cashes out, and then lastly something called layering, 436 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: how many accounts does the money pass through before it 437 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 1: reaches its final destination. That can be an indicator of 438 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 1: suspected money laundering. Based on our reporting here at CBS 439 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: News over one hundred and fifty financial transactions involving the 440 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: global business affairs of Hunter Biden and the President's brother 441 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,719 Speaker 1: James Biden, we're flagged by the banks for further review. 442 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 1: We don't know how that played out in terms of 443 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 1: whether they believe there may have been criminal activity or 444 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: really nothing suspicious at all. So what does the letter 445 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: from the HASP I love how she says, Katherine Herriton says, 446 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: or nothing suspicious, all suspicious at all? You want me 447 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: to believe? And then again, it's a CBS News and 448 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 1: they're doing this on their online show, okay, and they're 449 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: still trying to make you believe that it's normal for 450 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: there to be one hundred and fifty times that your 451 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: bank accounts are flagged for activities that are very clearly suspicious, 452 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 1: dealing with ties to row governments, ties to money laundering, 453 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: ties to terrorists groups and terrorists organizations. They want you 454 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:04,159 Speaker 1: to believe, okay, that they want you to believe that 455 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: this could be totally normal. It's not normal. It's never 456 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: been normal. As far this thing from normal. This is abnormal. 457 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: This is this is insane to even imply that Hunter 458 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: by knowing what's on his laptop, knowing all the information. 459 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: To me, if you're an investigative journalist the way that 460 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: they Catherine says she is, you can you're not stretching 461 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: to say how problematic this actually is, right, You're not 462 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: stretching to say that this is extremely problematic, and that's 463 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: going to be a very hard or unprecedented for somebody 464 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: to have one hundred and fifty different transactions that pop 465 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: this way like that. That would not be abnormal to 466 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: say that. And then they're like, lastly, they're like, oh, 467 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about these republicans real quick, right, Let's talk 468 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: about what these Republicans are doing to try to somehow 469 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: make the sound parts and the only thing parts. And 470 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: here is the fact, they won't turn over the documents. 471 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: Listen to a response Katherine well Lad. What they're alledging 472 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: is that the Treasury Department is blocking what they describe 473 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: as traditional oversight of financial affairs. They're saying that in 474 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: June of this year, there was a phone call between 475 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: Treasury officials and Republican House staffers in which the staffers 476 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: were told that Treasury would not be providing these suspicious 477 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: activity reports for congressional review unless Democrats also joined the request. 478 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: And Congressman James Kohner, who wrote to the Treasury Secretary, 479 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,959 Speaker 1: said the Treasury's actions call for investigation and raise new 480 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: questions about the degree to which the Biden administration is 481 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: using the federal government to provide cover for the Biden 482 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: family and its associates. I think, for context, it's important 483 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: to note that Democrats control the House Oversight commas, so 484 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: they're really the party with the most poll in terms 485 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: of getting records and issuing subpoenas. So what has the 486 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: response been like from the Treasury Department. Well, we've reached 487 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: out to the Treasury Department for a new statement. What 488 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: they told us when we did the original reporting back 489 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: in May is that they believe that they have complied 490 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: with these records requests and they've done so in a 491 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: manner that they think enables robust congressional oversight. There's sort 492 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 1: of another element to this. The Republicans are saying that 493 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: they're more restrictions on how they access these records and 494 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: something called an in camera review, which means that you 495 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: can come into a room, you can review the records, 496 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: but you can't take them with you, and in some 497 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: cases you can't bring in paper and pencil to take 498 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: notes as well. So the wy House position, Katherine, as 499 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: you know, has been at the president by the way. 500 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: By ways, let's just hit pause there and really think 501 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: about this and pull back. If you're trying to hide 502 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: something from the American people, this is how you would 503 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: do it. You don't let people see the documents for 504 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty times as bank countsmen flag, you 505 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: don't let them go into the room and see it. 506 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: You don't let them come in the room with paper 507 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: and penny even if they do get to see it. 508 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: And you make it where a Democrat has to sign 509 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: on one of the Republican actually review these documents, and 510 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: not a single Democrat will obviously help review these documents 511 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: or will sign off on this. The reason why is 512 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: because we're trying to hide something. My gut is we'll 513 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: get to see this after the midterm elections. What do 514 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: you bet? What do you bet after the midterment? Only 515 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: after the midterm elections do we see the intelligence on 516 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, Because at that point then they can just say, 517 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: screw it, we're done with Joe Biden. Let this be 518 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: the thing that brings him down. Will get rid of 519 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, and we'll move on. But we got to 520 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: make it through the midterms. This story is not going away, 521 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: and they know it. They don't care, though, because the 522 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: media is protecting them, and so are the Democrats in 523 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: Congress who refuse to allow the documents to be seen 524 00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: by the public. And if you vote for these scum 525 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: bags and you defend these comebags, you're part of the problem. 526 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: Make sure by the way that you share this podcast 527 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: with your family and friends.
