1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Right our two Sean Hannity's show eight hundred nine for one, 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Shawn our number. You want to be a part of 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: the program. Now, our friend Peter Schweitzer, who has been 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: the tip of the spear and exposing all of this 5 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: corruption in terms of the Biden family syndicate, starting with 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 1: what twenty eighteen with his best selling book Secret Empires. 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 1: His most recent book has been on the best seller lists. 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: I think it was number one for five or six 9 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: straight weeks, which is incredible. We now are hearing almost 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: every day that it looks like a possible indictment will 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 1: be handed down in Delaware against Hunter Biden. More importantly 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 1: now at the media. That's the only reason the media 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: finally decided to say, oh yeah, that we think that 14 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,639 Speaker 1: laptop is real after all, when they did no research 15 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,919 Speaker 1: in the weeks leading up to the twenty twenty presidential election. 16 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: Is a significant percentage of Biden supporters that said, if 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: they knew this, they likely would have changed their vote, 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: putting all that a tide. As the head of the 19 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: research think tank the Government Accountability Institute, Peter has done 20 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: it once again, and he points out that Hunter Biden 21 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: is just the tip of the Iceberg that China has 22 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: a strategy of elite capture, elite work with Punter Biden 23 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 1: and its work at the Department of Commerce, an agency 24 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: meant to protect American businesses. And anyway, a new report 25 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,919 Speaker 1: is out by Peter and by the Government Accountability Institute, 26 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: which he is leading, and it's called Commerce Chronyism Inside 27 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 1: Deals Conflicts of Interest in Chinese Connections. Anyway, peters here 28 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: to explain the details of all this. It goes into 29 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: very great specifics, great details, and Peter, welcome back to 30 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: the program. We appreciate it. Always great to be with you. Sean, 31 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: thanks for having me. Whenever I see an executive summary, 32 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: I pay very close attention. And that's how this nine 33 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: page document begins. And it has to do with the 34 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: US Department of Commerce, that they are the subject of 35 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: stern congression or rebukes. But it's not that often. But 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't find itself accused of being weaponized against political opponents. 37 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: And you talk about following the twenty sixteen election, an 38 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: article on Vox about the incoming power players and the 39 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: Trump administration dismissed it as a cabinet I think you 40 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: said backwater consisting of a Hodgepodge of agencies, tell us 41 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: what you'd found. Yeah, what we found is the Commerce Department, which, 42 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: remember SEAN was set up to help American business be 43 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: competitive overseas by establishing rules, protecting interests, make suring bad 44 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: actors like Beijing or Moscow aren't taking advantage of us 45 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: or threatening our security. And the problem is that the 46 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: Commerce Department has become a central focus point of Beijing's 47 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: effort to co opt our political class. Now, the Biden family, 48 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: I think is issue number one. He's the commander in chief, 49 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: he has so much power, but there's a lot of 50 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: power in the Commerce Department as well. And the current 51 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: Commerce Secretary, Gina Romando, her husband Andrew Moffatt, is the 52 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: executive at a Chinese funded tech firm called path Ai. 53 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: So this is an artificial intelligence company that is being 54 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: funded by a Chinese fund controlled by the Chinese governments. 55 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: And Moffatt has recently exercised stock options. He's going to 56 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: make a lot of money. The problem is, Gina Romando 57 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: has come out and said explicitly, is not our job 58 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: to deal with China in any aggressive way. We want 59 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: commerce and business as usual, even though they're doing all 60 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: these things to undermine our security, and in fact Lawei 61 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: number that company, which now seven countries, including the United States, 62 00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: have said is linked to the Chinese intelligence apparatus. She 63 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: recently reversed several restrictions on Walwei that had been put 64 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: in place by the Trump administration. So you have all 65 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,279 Speaker 1: the concerns about Hunter Biden that you and I first 66 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: disclosed in twenty eighteen and aren't as real and as 67 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,799 Speaker 1: important as ever. But we have to realize it's about 68 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: more than Hunter Biden. It's about this concerted effort, and 69 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: they are undermining the effectiveness in the integrity of the 70 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: Commerce Department, which is supposed to become batting them on 71 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: these issues. Let me just remind everybody who Gina Romando 72 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: is as Commerce Secretary. Remember we were in the middle 73 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: of the supply chain crisis and people were asking about, well, 74 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: what about our Christmas gifts? Are they going to get 75 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: delivered on time? Here was their answer. So there are 76 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: reports that those while the President announced the twenty first 77 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: seven opening, that that's not actually happening up in California, 78 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: that they're still backups. Business community has been complaining about 79 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: that there are backups, and as I said, this isn't 80 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: something that can be fixed overnight. But the important thing 81 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: is in mentally supply chains and logistics I run by 82 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: the private sector. You know, people say to me will 83 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Christmas gifts be delivered to which I say call fed X. 84 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: You know that isn't what the government does. What we 85 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: are doing and the president is committed to this. We're 86 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: using every tool in our toolbox to be supportive to 87 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: help to unstick the ports. So what you're discovering here 88 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: is this decade's long troubling financial entanglements that exist in 89 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: the commerce departments. Leadership and family members have financial ties 90 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: to the very business that they're supposedly doing at the 91 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: Commerce department. Is that a good summary. That's a great summary, Sean. 92 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: And if you look at the Trump administration, mean Donald 93 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: Trump has done more than any other president, certainly in 94 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: my lifetime, I think, in history. To really engage and 95 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: explain what Sean is doing and fond ways to counter them. 96 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: The biggest resistance he faced in his administration was from 97 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: the Commerce department. Will Baross, who was appointed Commerce Secretary, 98 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: comes from a finance background. Okay, that's fine, but it 99 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: turns out while he was Commerce secretary he was the 100 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: co owner with Chinese state backed companies of shipping businesses. 101 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: He failed to disclose it. But when a President Trump 102 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: would say we need tariffs imposed on Chinese steel or 103 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: in these other areas, Commerce would always gut those tariffs. 104 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: They would minimize them, they would create large loopholes. Some 105 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: of those loopholes were for will Baross's companies. So this 106 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: is a problem that existed in both administrations, and the 107 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: Commerce Department needs to be rooted out. And I think 108 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: whoever becomes president in January of twenty twenty five, that 109 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: has to be a priority. Because if you've got the 110 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: government agency they're supposed to be effectively dealing with China 111 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: on these issues, and you've got leadership that has all 112 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: these financial entanglement, you're not going to get the kind 113 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: of policies that we need in this country to protect ourselves. 114 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: Go back to the one point five billion dollars deal 115 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: with the Bank of China. Originally one billion, but it 116 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: became one point five And because you were first out 117 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: of the box in twenty eighteen and you broke this 118 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: news on this show and on my TV show when 119 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: Secret Empires came out, but you exposed how compromised Biden 120 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: through his son. It was with all of these countries. 121 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: But look at this deal specifically with China because now 122 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: this this fits in with the current Commerce Secretary, Gina 123 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: Romando and her husband. He's an executive at a Chinese 124 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: funded tech firm, and their relationship with China may be 125 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: subject to the rule of rule under consideration by the 126 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: Commerce Department. That's called a big conflict of interest. And 127 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: the question here is why are the communist Chinese so 128 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: willing to do business with people in America In the 129 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: case of Hunter Biden that has no experience at all whatsoever. 130 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you go to Goldman Sachs or Deutsche Bank 131 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: or Morgan Chase or any of the big banking firms 132 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: or financial firms in New York on Wall Street. Why 133 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: would you go with Hunter Biden and Devin Archer. Well, 134 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: we know the answer to that, Sean, and you're exactly right. 135 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this one point five would eventually became one 136 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: point five billion dollars private equity deal is called bo 137 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: High Harvest RST or BHR. In fact, was funded by 138 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: the Chinese government and they picked their partners Rosemont Seneca Partners. 139 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: This Rinky Dink financial firm that had just been established 140 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: a couple of years earlier by the son of the 141 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: Vice President, Hunter Biden and Devin Archer, neither one of 142 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: whom had any experience in international finance, and we now 143 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: know precisely why they did pick them. They weren't picking 144 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: them for their investment advice. They were picking them because 145 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: they wanted the access to the White House. And as 146 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: we show red handed, you and I have talked about, 147 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,599 Speaker 1: they got that access. They were off the book's meetings 148 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: that Vice President Joe Biden had in the Obama White 149 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: House that were not on the White House visitor logs 150 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: with senior Chinese officials, including CCP officials, and they purposely 151 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: arranged those meetings in such a way that they would 152 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: not appear on the visitor logs. We know they happened 153 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: because the Chinese officials on Chinese language media sites bragged 154 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: about the fact that they got these meetings with Joe Biden. 155 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: So they got access. But John, they also got leverage. 156 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: I mean, this is how they operate. They got leverage. 157 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: They are making the Biden family wealthy. We've calculated some 158 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: thirty one million dollars they perceived from Chinese companies, and 159 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: those deals all came from four Chinese businessmen who all 160 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: have links to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence. It's fascinating, though, 161 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: because if you look at the American people, they're beginning 162 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: to believe larger and larger p images that Joe Biden 163 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: himself is compromised by China. I quick break more with 164 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: Peter Schweitzer on the other side, then we'll get to 165 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: your calls eight hundred and nine four one sean if 166 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program. Right. 167 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: Peter Schweitzer is with us, author of two best selling books. 168 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: He's the one that broke the story about let's see Hunter, 169 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: Biden and Barisma and Ukraine and China and all the 170 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: information on the Biden family syndicate. He now has with 171 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: his think tank that he heads up, the Government Accountability Institute. 172 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: He has a new bombshell report. It's only nine pages. 173 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: We put it up on Hannity dot com. It's called 174 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: red Handed, How American elites get rich helping China win. Now, 175 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: I've got to imagine knowing Hunter's background as a crack 176 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: addict and somebody that frequented prostitutes. According to reports on 177 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: the laptop and everything else that I would assume that 178 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: they have a lot of compromising mattitials against Biden and 179 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: his family. I would assume Russia and Putin probably do 180 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: as well. I know everyone got upset when Donald Trump said, yea, 181 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: Putin should probably release everything he has on Hunter and 182 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: Joe and Hillary Clinton. He said it knowing pretty darn 183 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: well well the high degree of certainty that they likely 184 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: have a huge dacier on all of them. Well, and 185 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: in fact, Sean, all we have to do is take 186 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden at his own word. You remember the videotape 187 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: that came out four or five months ago where he 188 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: was with the woman. Some thought she was a rust 189 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: from prostitute. It's unclear who she was, but it's a 190 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: video audio tape. He's there talking to her, and he 191 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: talks about the fact that he's afraid that the Russians, 192 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: as he put it, have all this compromising material on 193 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: him and have leverage over him. So Hunter Biden himself 194 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: has acknowledged that this is a problem. All right, But 195 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: let's take it to the next step. Let's assume Hunter 196 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: Biden may get an indictment out of Delaware. Now we 197 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: know that The statement repeatedly made by Joe Biden, the President, 198 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: that he never had any discussion whatsoever with Hunter Biden 199 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: about as foreign business dealings is not true. Hunter Biden 200 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: putting aside money for the big guy, Hunter Biden also 201 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: whining about paying that all of Dad's bills and whining 202 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: that Dad takes fifty percent of all that he's making. 203 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: So it appears and there's a picture of I guess 204 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 1: and Joe and a Kazakhstan oligark as well. So this 205 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: now more than ample evidence that shows that Joe Biden 206 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: in fact knew all of it. Yeah, that's exactly right. 207 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: And I think what you're going to get from the 208 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: grand jury is you're going to get indictments. I think 209 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: the reason that the media, now the mainstream media, some 210 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: of them are starting to report on this and the 211 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: way they are it's being shaped by Keen Biden, and 212 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: they're trying to soften the landing, so to speak, that 213 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 1: Hunter is going to get indicted, and they're going to 214 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: try to explain it that this is a Hunter Biden issue, 215 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: it's not a Biden family issue. But you're exactly right, 216 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: you can't separate the two. The entire business model that 217 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden had set up, that the family had set 218 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: up that by the way, led to money into Joe 219 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: Biden's pocket from Hunter Biden. Was all predicated on the 220 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: father's political career and the father's ability to do favors 221 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: for foreign active. You started unpeeling the layers of the 222 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: onions in twenty eighteen. That's four years ago, Peter. It's 223 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: over four years now, because I think it was in 224 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: the early part of twenty eighteen when we did the 225 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: first interview. And now my question is do you believe 226 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden is compromised by countries like China, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, others. 227 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: I do. I do, especially as it relates to China, 228 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: and I think if China has, I think the others 229 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: have as well. All you have to do is look 230 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: at what Joe Biden has done as president towards China. 231 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: They're not expecting him to be a robot. What they're 232 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: looking for is he translated to English, is big help 233 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: with a little bad mouth. And what they basically mean, Sean, 234 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: is they understand and you know, you have to make 235 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: statements about the leakers, You have to make statements about 236 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: human rights that's a little bad mouth. What they want 237 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 1: is unfettered access to our technology, unfettered access to our 238 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: capital markets, which means Wall Street, and unfettered access largely 239 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: with minimum tariffs on their ability to export subsidize goods 240 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: into the United States. And Joe Biden on all three 241 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: of those fronts has reversed course in what Donald Trump 242 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: did as president. So maybe that's why the defense Chinese 243 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: Defense Minister warned the Pentagon chief Taiwan is part of China. Yeah, yeah, 244 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: it is. They are emboldened, they are strengthened, not only 245 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: because of the sort of physical feebleness that we see 246 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: with the president on a regular basis, but also because 247 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: they really do believe they have this leverage over the 248 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: President and his actions indicate that they in fact are 249 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: in control. Amazing stuff. I gotta tell you, I urge everybody. 250 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: We're going to put a link on Hannity dot com. 251 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: Commerce chronyism, inside Deals, conflicts of Interest, Chinese connections. Unfortunately 252 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: that the information and the detail is in such great 253 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: bestificity in depth that you really have to read it. 254 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: It's worth the read. We'll put it on Hannity dot Com. 255 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: Peter Schweitzer's usual great work. You're always ahead of the curve. 256 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: Thanks for sharing it with us. Thanks for having me, Sean, 257 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Quick break right back when we come 258 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: back more of the best of the Sean Hannity Show. 259 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: Stay tuned all right on this Friday twenty five now 260 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: to the top of the hour, eight hundred and nine 261 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: point one Seawn our number. You want to be a 262 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: part of the program. Well, last month we set another 263 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: record illegal immigration at our borders. Of course, the aiding 264 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: and abetting and lawbreaking is now just standard operating procedure 265 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: for the Biden administration. The big question is how much 266 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: worse will it get if they end Title forty two, 267 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: Meaning yeah, in the middle of the pandemic, we're not 268 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: going to let a lot of people into the country, 269 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: which they didn't pay attention to anyway, Remember, you get 270 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: preferential treatment if you're an illegal immigrant. There's no COVID testing. 271 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: Jen Psaki said, they're not going to be here very long, 272 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: meant here meeting Texas or Arizona. They're going to get 273 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: free transportation to the state of their choice, no vaccine mandates, 274 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: and then of course we find out free Biden telephones 275 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: what an incentive anyway. Here is may orcus from just 276 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: earlier in the week saying the end of Title forty 277 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: two does not mean that the border is open beginning 278 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: May twenty third. The only problem is we just had 279 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: the biggest month ever in history last month. Listen, the 280 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: restrictions at our southwest border have not changed. Single adults 281 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: and families encountered will continue to be expelled where appropriate 282 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: under Title forty two, and those who are unable to 283 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: establish a legal basis to remain will be removed. It 284 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: is very important to note that, while, of course we 285 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: are preparing for the end of Title forty two based 286 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's decision that 287 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: it will end on May twenty third, that does not 288 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: mean that the border is open beginning on May twenty third. 289 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: We continue to enforce the laws of this country. We 290 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: continue to remove individuals who do not qualify for relief 291 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: under the laws of this country anyway. So that's Mayorchis. 292 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: In other words, we've got a disaster coming up here. 293 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: And when you look at Title forty two and they're 294 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: talking about ending it now in three days, and the 295 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: recent statistics of two hundred and thirty five thousand illegal 296 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: immigrants crossing into the border last month. How bad are 297 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: they going to allow this to get and what an 298 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: impact does it have on a country that is in 299 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: a massive economic downturn like ours? Anyway, Mark Morgan is 300 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 1: with US former acting CBP Commissioner and Heritage visiting fellow 301 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: Tom Holman, former Acting ICE Director, also a heritage visiting fellow. 302 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: Mark will start with you. A record last month now 303 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: lifting titlean forty two means what? Well, Scharn look, and 304 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned about the record last month, Like 305 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: you said, almost three hundred and twenty five thousand. Here's 306 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: what's important for your listeners. Is it three hundred twenty five? 307 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: Why did I say two hundred and thirty five? Maybe 308 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: I've Messedlton, Maybe at a Joe Biden moment, I don't know. No, No, 309 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: it's two. You're right, No, it's it's two hundred and 310 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: twenty four thousands of the change. So that's where almost 311 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: a quarter of a million, So Searn, Look, what's important 312 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: for your listeners though, is even with Tottle forty two 313 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: has been in place for the past year and a half, 314 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: we're already at a catastrophic unmitigated crisis that we've ever 315 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: had in a lottime, the most unsecure boarder in our 316 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: lot time, the highest flool of illegal immigrations in our lifetime. 317 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: So that's with TOTTA forty two in place. Once it 318 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: goes away, it's just gonna make a catastroph for crisis 319 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: even worse. The best why I can describe it is 320 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be like the Hindenburg crashing into the Titanic. 321 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: What's your take, Tom Holman, great dive, both of you back, 322 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: But Tom, what's your take? Well? Mark shroy Look, we 323 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: already got record numbers historically Goni gracial last last year. 324 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: This year we're gonna beat last year's numbers by at 325 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: least a half a million with Tutle forty two. But 326 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 1: here's the problem. Borbitrow is so overwhelmed. We got over 327 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand gataways sean over seven hundred thousand, sixty 328 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: seven thousand just last month. So when TUTO forty two 329 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: gets lifted, that means more borbital agents are taking off 330 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: the line in processing to processing the cities. What's that 331 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: going to mean? More gataways, more fat and off more 332 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: over those deaths. And here's the problem the Gataways, the 333 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: Border trow admitted they arrest is forty two terrorist wash list. 334 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: So the Border Tales arrested people from one hundred and 335 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: sixty one countries. Many of those countries sponsored terrorism. If 336 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: you don't think not a single one that's seven hundred 337 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: thousands came from the country's supporting terrorism and got into 338 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: United States without apprehension, then you then you're foolish. You're 339 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: not the I can have a data. This is a 340 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: natural security issue, and it's about to get a hell 341 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: lot worse because boards already overwhelmed, and even I'm gonna 342 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: get worse. So this is this is a scary time 343 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: to this country. What I don't understand is, and maybe 344 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm just a little too old fashioned, Mark Morgan, is 345 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: the flagrant law breaking, the aiding and abetting. And I've 346 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: asked both of you this question in the past, and 347 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: you both have given me interesting answers. But I know 348 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: that if I or a group of say me and 349 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: my friends, if we went down to the border and 350 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: we helped people cross into this country illegally, and then 351 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: we gave them free transportation, what day would you like 352 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: to go to Okay, Well we'll take you to Omaha, Nebraska, Okay, 353 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: and we take people there. I think I'd get arrested 354 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: for breaking the laws on immigration, probably human trafficking violations 355 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: and charges would be brought up against me as well, 356 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: right Mark, Yeah, you know, you're absolutely correct. And that's 357 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: why we've been saying for a long time that what 358 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: this administration doing is besides ignoring the law and inventing 359 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: new laws, all that benefits illegal immigrants coming into this 360 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: country is that they're actually complicit and finishing the last 361 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: leg of the smuggler in operation. Think about that, is 362 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: that all is the smugglers and cartels have to do 363 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: is get them to the US border, and this administration 364 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: is going to take it from there and they're going 365 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: to facilitate the last leg of actually getting them to 366 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 1: come into this country and be flown, like you said, John, 367 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: to every town, city, and state in this country and 368 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: look to footstep on what Tom said? What what? What 369 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,679 Speaker 1: people don't understand this is about border security and national security. 370 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: When you have up to eighty percent of border toory resources, 371 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: they're pulling all off the national security mission to be 372 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 1: basically to finish forced to finish the last leg of 373 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: that smuggled operation to be a travel agency. Large areas 374 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: of border are wide open. Chhan, I know you've hit 375 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: this hard. The leading calls the death right now between 376 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: adults eighteen to forty five is Fentanyldea's own reporting says 377 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: comes from the southwest border. Why is this a right 378 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: or left thing to secure the border? It shouldn't be. 379 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: It's we're losing about three hundred kids a day. That's 380 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: how many were losing. So you're always going to find 381 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 1: a liberal judge that is going to go along with 382 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: the Biden administration. So it's probably going to be the 383 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 1: flipping and flopping in. You know, you get one opinion, 384 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: you have one rule one day and one rule the 385 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: next day. And that worries me a lot, Tom Holman, 386 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: because if that's the case, this is just going to 387 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: continue in perpetuity. Now, I want to be very clear 388 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: about this, because conservatives allied about a lot. They're anti immigrant. 389 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: I'm not anti immigrant. I'm the product of immigration into 390 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: this country. All four of my grandparents came from Ireland, 391 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: all four. I took an ancestry test. I'm one hundred 392 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 1: percent British Isle, meaning Ireland and so they came here, 393 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: but they came here legally, they went through Ellis Island. 394 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 1: They didn't have any money in their pocket. There's three things. 395 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: Three criteria that I think anybody coming into the country 396 00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: needs to be able to pass must around. One, we 397 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: need a background security check to make sure that you 398 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: don't have nefarious intentions or radical associations. Two, in the 399 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: middle of a pandemic, you definitely need to be tested 400 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 1: for COVID and quarantined until we know you don't have COVID. 401 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 1: And number three, especially in these tough economic times, you 402 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: have to have or showed the means that you're going 403 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: to be able to take care of yourself financially and 404 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: not be a burden on the American taxpayer. I don't 405 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: think that's a stringent criteria, Tom Holman, what do you think. 406 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: I'm absolutely with you and add a good moral character 407 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: to that. That's the way it should be. And by 408 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: the way, and then I don't I don't care where 409 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: you come from. Welcome to America. No, we got people 410 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: from all the world. Like I said, we got over 411 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty one nationals have crossed the more 412 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: different countries. But look, I'm pro immigrant. Now people want 413 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 1: to call me a racist in a white nationalist because 414 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: I enforced immigration law. But let me tell you something 415 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: about Joe Biden's policy. Everybody says, well, these are much 416 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: more humane than President Trun's policies. Wrong. More migers have 417 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: died under the first year at Joe Biden and US 418 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: soils in any year in my thirty five year career 419 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: at number one two, over one hundreds thousand Americans have 420 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: died from drug overdoses, much as ninety five percent those 421 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: drugs coming across the Southwest border. Micros have died in 422 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: Mexico and a daring gap. Tell me how this administration 423 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: is more humane? Cluding President Trump took immigration to a 424 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 1: thirty five fourty year vol eighty three percent decrease. How 425 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: many lives did he say? How many people didn't dive overdoses? 426 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 1: How many children didn't die? Drawing the river? How many 427 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: billions of billions of dollars of cartels dot make President 428 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: Trump's policies saved lives? A secure border saved lives? Of 429 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: data is clear on map, Yeah, I mean, this is 430 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: very clear on that. I mean, and that's the whole 431 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: point of this. And this is where I think there's 432 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: such deception and lying among the American people regarding this. 433 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: I find that amazing. But Mark, I want to be 434 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: clear with you too. You support legal immigration, and if 435 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: you have, I don't think it's stringent the criteria that 436 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: I've laid out it should be for anybody any place 437 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: in the world. We only have X number of immigrants 438 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: we can take into the country on any given year. 439 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: So a background check, a health check, and a means 440 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: test meaning you're going to be able to take care 441 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: of yourself not be a burden on the American people 442 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: does not seem too stringent to me. So you're out 443 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: three rds. Host Tom, I'm with you one hundred percent. 444 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: And that's why we keep trying to get the heartive 445 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: out there that this is about border security. This isn't 446 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: about immigration. Look, the United States is the most generous, capacite, 447 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: niche and the face of the planet. What comes to immigration. 448 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: We swear in about a million immigrants to become US 449 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: systems every single year. Shot, that's more than any other 450 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: country in the globe. So this is about border security. 451 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: But when you allow it incentivized illegal immigration to the 452 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: highest levels we've ever had in our lifetime. The more 453 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: illegal immigration you have in between reports eventry, the degrades 454 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: our capability and our capacity to actually secure the borders. 455 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: As Tom said, to stop the drug from porn in, 456 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: to stop the criminals from point in among those seven 457 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand goataway Sean, the facts are their murders, rapists, pedophiles, 458 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: and game members. Not to mention national security vulnerability that 459 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: Tom mentioned, that's the fact. This is about secure in 460 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: our borders. Hey, we want to take a look at 461 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: legal immigration and improving our policies and our pathways there 462 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: for legal I'm all in yeah, same here. I want 463 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: to thank you both for what you've done and what 464 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: you do. And there's people that stand up for the 465 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: rule of law. The fact that there has not been 466 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: any attention paid to the fact that they're aiding and 467 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: abetting the law breaking the laws that we currently have 468 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: on the books is inexplicable to me because I thought 469 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: in America you didn't get to pick and choose which 470 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: laws you like and which laws you don't like. Anyway, 471 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: Tom Holman, Mark Morgan, thank you both for being with us. 472 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn our number. If 473 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program. All right, 474 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 1: let's get to our busy phone. CD is in North Carolina. CD. Hi, 475 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: how are you glad you're called Happy Friday? Hey, that's 476 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: Friday to see man. Yeah, love y'all show, love your show. 477 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 1: And I've been listening a long time. First time I've 478 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: called in. But a little bit nervous, but I'm gonna 479 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: see if I can get through. Don't be nervous. You're talking, 480 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: you're talking to friends. It's okay, don't worry. Okay, I 481 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,239 Speaker 1: got you, buddy. I'm just overtired machinist from Carolina. So, uh, 482 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 1: just kind of like, yeah, you're you're what makes America great. 483 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: Go ahead, sir, Yes, sir. I was just thinking yesterday 484 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 1: about our old friend Rush, and uh kind of wanted 485 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: to know maybe what your thoughts were would be mainly 486 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: about politics or going on right now, about what you 487 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: think he would be thinking about the way the world's 488 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: going out, mainly in the US, and uh, just get 489 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that. But no, look, it's hard to 490 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: get into Rush always had this ability to give a 491 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: take that nobody else thought of, so there would be 492 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: some nuance to this. But I think it's it's very 493 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: obvious he would be very, very worried and concerned about 494 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: this country and the direction we're headed in. Rush Or 495 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: is a believer in the individual. He believed in natural rights, 496 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: God given rights. He believed in capitalism, he believed in 497 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: our constitution. He believed in liberty and freedom. I mean 498 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: he preached this every single day that he was on 499 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: a showing and God, we missed him so much. His 500 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: voice was so important and this I think he would 501 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: view this as an all hands on deck moment and 502 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: that we've got to write the ship. If we don't 503 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: do it in this election cycle and the next election cycle, 504 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: I don't know if if it becomes irreparable damage and 505 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: we can never get back to where we should be. 506 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: We are hurting our children, We're hurting our grandchildren.

And we 510 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: don't have to pay what we're expected to pay now 511 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: on average sixths a gallon for gasoline.

And 519 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: that's exactly what's happening and playing out before a rise. 520 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: And you know, for all those people out there, and 521 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: even Republicans Donald Trump, the tweets, Oh my gosh, the tweets, 522 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: the tweets.
