And he did it with the 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: release of his book Secret Empires. We launched it on 12 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,959 Speaker 1: radio and TV that day for him and he's been 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: right ever since, and he's gone even deeper since then 14 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: as well. He's with the Government Accountability Institute as well 15 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: as Eric Eggers. Peter Schweitzer and Eric welcome back to 16 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 1: the program. 17 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 2: Thanks Sean. Great to be with you. 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,319 Speaker 1: Peter Sweitzer. Let's first get your reaction to today, and 19 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: that is that the Biden's year using this web of 20 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: shell companies to conceal all this foreign cash and bank records. 21 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: And I think we knew that Joe knew all about 22 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,919 Speaker 1: this when he bragged about, you know, withholding a billion 23 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: dollars in Ukraine in exchange for a prosecutor to be 24 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: fired who was investigating his son, who went on GMA 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: and admitted he had no experience. 26 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, Sean, I mean, look, what this committee is able 27 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 2: to do is use the subpoena power to collect details 28 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: and records and evidence for what you and I talked 29 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 2: about five years ago, and it's all being confirmed. What 30 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: I think we all have to keep in mind is 31 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: that this committee's at the beginning of their investigation. What 32 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 2: they're talking about are really drawn from four banks. There 33 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: are twelve banks that are believed to be linked to 34 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: the Bidens that the committee has asked for subpoenae financial 35 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: records from. They're only talking about four banks were oute 36 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: and right now there are another eight. So I think 37 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: we need to keep in mind this is not the 38 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 2: committee sort of shooting everything that they have. This is 39 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: the beginning of an investigation, and I think we're going 40 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 2: to see a continued accumulation of money. The amount of 41 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: money they say right now it's a ten million, I 42 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: think it's going to be double triple that amount. And 43 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: I think some of the other entities in China are 44 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 2: going to emerge. Right now they're talking about CEFC, this 45 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: energy company and the chairman of that chairman Ye. But 46 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: I think we're going to see the other deals that 47 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: we've talked about BHR, the private equity firm, some of 48 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: the dealings they had with Henry Joao and others. Those 49 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: are going to come forward. So I applaud the committee 50 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: for what they're doing, and I think people just need 51 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: to be patient as they accumulate more material and they 52 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 2: actually start getting people on the record that they subpoena 53 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: to appear before the committee. 54 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: When they talked about money today, I did think about you, 55 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: Peter schweitzeruse you talked about very early on a billion 56 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: dollar day deal with Hunter ten days after a trip 57 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: to Asia and stopping in China with his father, a 58 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: billion dollar deal with the Bank of China that ultimately 59 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: became a one point five billion dollar deal with the 60 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: Bank of China. They're only talking about ten million here. 61 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: We have discussed one hundred thousand dollars shopping spree with 62 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: a Chinese national. We talked about a five million dollar 63 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: no interest forgivable loan. Are those figures correct? Do you 64 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: believe that Eventually they'll get to those numbers. 65 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: Yes, I think they will. Now, the billion and a 66 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: half deal, let's remember, and I know during the twenty 67 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: twenty campaign this got misstated sometimes on the campaign stump. 68 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: It was never the case that Hunter Biden received a 69 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: billion and a half dollars. Hunter Biden was given an 70 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: ownership stake in a private equity fund that was funded 71 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: by the Chinese government. The Chinese government put a billion 72 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 2: and a half dollars into it. Hunter Biden was made 73 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 2: a partner even though he had no background and experience 74 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 2: in finance, and his ownership stake of that management company 75 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: has been estimated by the University of Chicago Business School 76 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 2: to be worth about twenty million dollars. 77 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,679 Speaker 1: Now, was that equity share turned over to the guy 78 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: that paid his tax bills? I believe two point eight 79 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: million dollars. 80 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: Well, that's one of the things that is being explored. 81 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: There's been a debate about when Hunter sold his stake. 82 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: If in fact he sold his stake, whether he sold 83 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: his stake to the lawyer who's paying his bills at 84 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 2: share market price, we don't know yet. I think that's 85 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: one of the things that the committee will get But 86 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 2: to your larger point, You're exactly right. We know that, 87 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 2: for example, the Henry Jaw wiring a five million dollar 88 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 2: payment to Hunter Biden. We know about that because it 89 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: was on the laptop and the wire transfers was leased 90 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: by the US Senate in twenty twenty. Confirm that the 91 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 2: House Committee has not gone that transaction yet. They have 92 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 2: not got to the BHR private equity Fund. So yes, 93 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 2: we are going to see right now they say they're 94 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 2: at ten million. I believe we're going to get to 95 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: thirty million or so by the time all of this 96 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 2: is done. And again, as the Committee emphasized so important, Sean, 97 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: there is no discernible business service that the bidens provided 98 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: for this five million dollars would be sent as quote 99 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 2: unquote good safe money, but nothing whatever result from it. 100 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: No business was set up, no joint venture was set up. 101 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: And that's what I think the Committee's wise to keep 102 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: returning to, why are these individuals sending the Biden's money. 103 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 2: They're not stupid, don't hand out money for no reason. 104 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 2: That's what the bidens. Theonuses should be on the bidens 105 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: to explain what were you getting paid to do? 106 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: All right, Eric Ergers, let me bring you into all 107 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: of this. I want to know what Joe knew and 108 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: what he did when he knew, And I want to 109 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: know exactly how much money the Biden family syndicate did 110 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: with every country, how much was the deal worth, how 111 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: much did they profit from all of this. Did Joe 112 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: in fact benefit financially? Did he take any specific actions 113 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: that benefited the countries they were doing business with, Because 114 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously we can't have a compromised president of 115 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: the United States, but I would argue that was proven 116 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: when Joe bragged about the Ukrainian firing of the prosecutor Eric. 117 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be ideal if we didn't have a 118 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 3: compromised president of the United States. Unfortunately, I think reality 119 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 3: is the opposite of that. And far be it from 120 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 3: me to disagree with Peter Schweitzer as the president of 121 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 3: the nonprofit. 122 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're about to get fired if you do that. 123 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: Go ahead. 124 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 3: But I do think that we do know what the 125 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 3: Biden business model was. They were selling access to the 126 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: White House, and I think they were essentially legitimizing these 127 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 3: shady operations in the countries that Hunter Biden was doing 128 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: business with. We know from an email that Hunter Biden 129 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 3: sent to Devin Archer that when Joe Biden gave a 130 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 3: speech in Ukraine and encourage Ukraine to invest in their 131 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: own natural energy and not be reliant on Russia for 132 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 3: their gas. This has happened at the same time that 133 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: Hunter's being paid by guess what, a Ukrainian natural energy company, 134 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 3: and so this and then Hunter Biden takes that clip. 135 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 3: He sens us to Devon that let's make sure that 136 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: the people that are paying us know that this is 137 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: how we add value. It's not an accident that Hunter 138 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 3: Biden does business in the nether regions of the international 139 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 3: business world. He's not doing business in France, He's not 140 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: doing business in Canada. He's doing business in Ukraine, China, 141 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 3: and Romania. These are places that just by showing up 142 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 3: in a place near Hunter Biden or excuse me, near 143 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 3: President Biden and Vice President Biden helps legitimize their operation. 144 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 3: And as it relates to has Joe Biden profited personally 145 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 3: from it, Well, think about it this way. Joe Biden 146 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: vacations in mansions, he has beach home. This guy's been 147 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 3: in the public service on the taxpayer dole for forty 148 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 3: plus years, yet he lives like a billionaire. And I 149 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,559 Speaker 3: think the reason why that's happened is because the more 150 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 3: that we know about the Biden financial empire. Here's what 151 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 3: we know. The amount of money continues to increase, the 152 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 3: number of Biden's who personally profited continues to increase, and 153 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 3: Joe's role only continues to be closer to it. You 154 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 3: noted that Joe Biden lied initially when said he had 155 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 3: no idea about Hunter Biden's business deals. He's told lie 156 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: after lie consistently, and so I think that the next 157 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 3: big lie will be that Joe Biden didn't personally profit 158 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: from it. And I think, as Peter noted, we're at 159 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 3: the beginning of this process, and the more documents that 160 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: are uncovered, the closer Joe Biden gets, the more lucrative 161 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: the financial arrangements have to come. And I think, unfortunately, 162 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 3: the worst it works for the President of. 163 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: The United States. 164 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: Well, I think we need to know what did the 165 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: Biden family do for all these millions of dollars, especially 166 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: when they had no experience, You know, why so many LLCs? 167 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: Why was money being funneled to children? Peter Schweitzer, Yeah, I. 168 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: Mean, that's exactly right. I mean, what we see with 169 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: the Biden family is that money's fungible, it gets moved around. 170 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: We know for a fact that when Joe Biden was 171 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 2: Vice President of the United States, Hunter was being paid 172 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: by foreign entities, and that Hunter Biden was paying some 173 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: of his father's bills to the tune of tens or 174 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: thousands of dollars. That's just I think illustrative of the 175 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: fact that money moves around the family in such a way. 176 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 2: And I think that, you know, it's a little bit 177 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 2: off base. Sean people are looking for the quid pro quo, 178 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 2: and corruption doesn't always work that way. I mean, corrupt 179 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 2: people sometimes engage in a quid pro quo. You're kind 180 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: of stupid if you do, because that's the legal standard 181 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: and it's easy to prove you're going to jail. But 182 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: sometimes corruption is more of a retainer. You're not paying 183 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: for a specific act, but you're paying for access. You're 184 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: paying for generally favorable treatment. And I think if you 185 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: look at Joe Biden's positions as it relates to China, Ukraine, 186 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 2: some of the dealings, even with Russia, going back, you 187 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: find that Joe Biden took positions that were beneficial to 188 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 2: people that were close to you know, his son Hunter 189 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: and his business partners, and so the sort of the 190 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 2: gold standard that democrats are setting proved the specific thing 191 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 2: that Joe Biden did is a ridiculous standard. That's not 192 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: how corruption works. It's oftentimes more of a retainer model 193 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: than it is a quid pro quo. 194 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I look at all of this here 195 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: and what you've got a document showing ten million in 196 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: farm money flowing like a river. You know why so 197 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: many shell corporations or shell companies. Look, there are real LLCs, 198 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: And once I was accused of having a shell corporation. No, 199 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: it was a real LLC that had my real money 200 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: invested in it. These companies all seem to only have 201 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: been created for the financial benefit of the Biden family 202 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: and members of the family, and they seem to get 203 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: trans I've heard from one to the other to the 204 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: other as a means of sort of obstructing or hiding 205 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: where the money is actually originally coming from. Eric Eggers, No, 206 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: that's absolutely right. 207 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: I think carm and Comber said today. This is not 208 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 3: the way legitimate people do business. So why would the business, 209 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 3: why would the Bidens set up their business enterprise this way. 210 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 3: And this is unfortunately more concrete evidence of what we've 211 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: talked about before on your program, Sewan, of how the 212 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 3: Bidens go out of their way to intentionally obscure and 213 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: make harder attract the flow of money from foreign governments, 214 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 3: foreign businesses into the Biden personal family fortune. You know, 215 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: I've talked before about how I think when Joe Biden 216 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 3: was Vice president, Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, and 217 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 3: one of the books that Peter Swize has done is 218 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: Clinton Cash and documented the flow of international money into 219 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 3: the Clinton Global Initiative and the Clinton Foundation, Washington Secretary 220 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 3: of State, and build being paid speeches. And I think 221 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 3: the Biden's learned from that because we talked in Clinton 222 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 3: Cash about what we called the Clinton blur, the overlap 223 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: of all these interests. There's a Biden blur, and they 224 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 3: do it on purpose. We now know from emails that 225 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 3: we obtained that when the Biden Center was being set 226 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: up at the University of Delaware, and they have one 227 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 3: money coming into fund that and some of that money 228 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: is going to go for salaries and things of that nature, 229 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 3: the Bidens are emailing about how let's make sure Joe's 230 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 3: name is not on any of these documents because then 231 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 3: you might have additional disclosure requirements. So they at every turn, 232 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: I've actually been quite shrewd about obscuring and hiding just 233 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 3: how involved and who involved in Biden family and how 234 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: much money they're getting to all to the dune of 235 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 3: protecting the one engine that drives the Biden economy, and 236 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 3: that's Joe Biden. 237 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: All right, will take a quick break, come back more 238 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,119 Speaker 1: with Peter Schweitzer and Eric Eggers of the Government Accountability Institute. 239 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine to four one. Shawn is on number. 240 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: We'll get to your call's final half hour. We'll continue. 241 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 4: Job job Joe Biden can't spell it and he can't 242 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 4: keep them for the American people. Jack out Sean Hannity 243 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 4: jobs for him today. Now Anity's on coast to coast. 244 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: As we continue with Peter Schweitzer and Eric Eggers. You 245 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: might remember Peter Sweitzer in twenty eighteen right here on 246 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: the show launched his book Secret Empires, where he began 247 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: this narrative about the Biden family syndicate. Where do you 248 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: think this goes? Last question I'll throw to Peter Schweitzer, 249 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: where's this going to end up, I think we're going. 250 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 2: To see more revelations, and I think we're going to 251 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 2: see a lot of heat put on the Department of 252 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 2: Justice because we've got whistleblowers coming out from the IRS 253 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 2: and from elsewhere that clearly indicate the Department of Justice 254 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 2: has not investigated this when we first talked about this 255 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 2: sean five years ago. Shortly after that, you called for 256 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 2: an independent council because your argument was, I think, quite rightly, 257 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 2: so can you really get a fair investigation here of 258 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 2: the Biden family? And I think the evidence is though 259 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: you can't. I still think we need to have an 260 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: independent council. I don't think we're going to get one, 261 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 2: but we finally have a Congress that is prepared to 262 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: hold the Department of Justice and the Biden's seat to 263 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: the fire, and that's something. 264 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: Do you think this now may alter what we have 265 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: been anticipating now for weeks, and that is the indictment 266 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: against Hunter Biden on felony tax charges and a felony 267 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: gun charge. Do you think this now puts that indictment 268 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: on hold while they look deeper into this, In other words, 269 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: are they forced to? 270 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 2: I think so. I think it's going to become embarrassing 271 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 2: now to the Department of Justice because they were able 272 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 2: to shield most of the information from the American people, 273 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 2: and they could argue, well, we did something right, we 274 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: got them on tax charges. But when the American people 275 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: see the flow of money, the fact that it is 276 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: being provided is being hidden by the Bidens and who 277 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: that source of money is coming from. I think it's 278 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: going to be very hard for DOJ to continue down 279 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: the path, which was we're going to GM him on 280 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 2: selling tax evasion on this gun charge, but we're not 281 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 2: going to get to the heart of the matter, which 282 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 2: is a flow of foreign money and the fact that 283 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 2: the Biden family and Joe benefited from it. 284 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: Unbelievable. You were right in twenty eighteen, and here we are. 285 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: Peter Sweitzer, thank you. Secret Empires is the book. I 286 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: think you have a follow up book coming out next 287 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: year if I'm not mistaken. Is that right? 288 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? January of next year, that's right. 289 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: We look forward to the first interview. Peter why ruin 290 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: a great tradition anyway, Eric Ergers and Peter Swizer, thank 291 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: you both.

And that's the point. 330 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 5: Not only did he know Sean, not only did he know, 331 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 5: we have some other rich people like maybe mister Obama 332 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 5: who also knew he was the VP, because I remember 333 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 5: remember in that conversation when he was talking, he said, 334 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 5: if you don't fire, if you fire, don't fight, A call, 335 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 5: big call, call Obama. 336 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 7: He's he calling. 337 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 1: Well, I don't. So far Obama's not been implicated. However, 338 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: there were meetings in the Obama white House. There were 339 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: invitations given the state dinners we have. We've been following 340 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: that information. What did Joe know? When did he know it? 341 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 1: Did Biden? Did Obama know anything about it? It's a 342 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: fair question. I think we ought to get an answer 343 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: to that, considering a lot of this business took place 344 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: in his white House. But it's it's about as corrupt 345 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: as I've ever seen it. And what it really means 346 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: is if your family's taking money and you're not performing 347 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 1: any services for that money from foreign adversaries. To me, 348 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: that compromises the family, and that compromises the president in 349 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: this case. And you can't tell me he didn't know 350 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: that that prosecutor was investigating his son who being paid 351 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: a fortune with no experience. So there, that, to me 352 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: is all the smoking gun evidence you would need on 353 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: that case. I'm sure that we're going to have more 354 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 1: information evidence coming out in the days, weeks, months ahead. 355 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: The idea that they set up all these you know, 356 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: shell companies just to move money around and give it 357 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: to different family members, including children. Okay, what did the 358 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 1: children do for this money? I'd like to know did 359 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: they pay taxes on this money? I'd like to know 360 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: did Hunter register as required under the Pharaoh Act that 361 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: they used against Paul Manifort, for example, And if he didn't, 362 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: that would be another charge coming his way. If we 363 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: have equal justice under the law anyway, I'll give you 364 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 1: the last word. 365 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 5: We don't have equal justice under the law. And you know, 366 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 5: bringing up Paul Mannifort, how he went into jail and 367 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 5: how he came out. It was unbelievable to see what 368 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 5: they did to him. But the bottom line is they 369 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 5: saw influence. They sole influence period. Joe Biden is probably 370 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 5: one of the worst people that anybody could even want 371 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 5: to have as a father or grandpa. 372 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 1: How did China get away with spy balloon flying over 373 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: the airspace of Alaska, down the coast of Canada into Idaho, 374 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: all across the US and over our missile silo sites, 375 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: our ICBMs silo sites in Montana, down to Missouri and Kansas, 376 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: up to Kentucky, off the coast of the Carolinas before 377 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: it shot down, no repercussions at all. How does Russia 378 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: get to take down a drone no repercussions at all? 379 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: The Biden's compromised. I don't know, because I don't think. 380 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: I don't think Donald Trump would have taken that crap 381 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: from the Chinese or the Russians. Uh to our phones, 382 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: we go, Matt in Pennsylvania, Matt High, How are you 383 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: glad you called? Sir? 384 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 6: Jean, I don I'm glad. 385 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 7: To be on your show. 386 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,239 Speaker 6: The question for you is this, I've been sitting here 387 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 6: listening to all this stuff down on Joe Biden, all 388 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 6: the corruptness, all the money we spend, the debt, all 389 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 6: that stuff like that. What I don't understand is is 390 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 6: normal people would go to jail for the stuff that 391 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 6: has been going on. Why is there no accountability for 392 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 6: anything that any of these politicians, you know, do you 393 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 6: know what I mean? We spend money all over the 394 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 6: all over the outside of the United States. When we 395 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 6: have homeless people in the United States, we have veterans 396 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 6: that are homeless, we have drug drug addiction in the 397 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 6: United States. We can't take care of ourselves. But yet 398 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 6: we spend millions and millions of dollars taking care of 399 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 6: everybody else. 400 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 7: Obviously people were. 401 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 6: On the take because you know, I mean, there's all 402 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 6: these deals. 403 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 5: It's it's not. 404 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: Even hit anymore. 405 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 6: The stuff is out in the open. It's like nobody nobody, 406 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 6: but nobody does anything about it. 407 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: Look the Republicans, to their credit, you know, ninety seven 408 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: days Joe would not meet with Kevin McCarthy met with 409 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: him yesterday with only well yesterday, it was twenty two 410 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: days until we hit the debt ceiling, and that would 411 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: be the moment that America would start defaulting on its 412 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: debt for the first time in history. So because he 413 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: wouldn't meet and McCarthy asked him every day, he was 414 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: asking every single day to meet with Joe Biden, Joe 415 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't meet with him. Joe I said this from the beginning. 416 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: They made a political calculation and they thought the Republicans, 417 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: because of their small majority, would not come together and 418 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: agree on a plan as they have that would raise 419 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: the debt ceiling. And in the case of the Republicans, 420 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: it also CEB scores out at saving four point eight 421 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: trillion dollars over a period of ten years, which I 422 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: think is a good thing. It caps the baseline budgeting 423 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: level to one percent in other words, you can't raise 424 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: program or any of the different government functions above one percent. 425 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: That's a slow rate of growth compared to past years. 426 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: I think that's fiscally responsible, and I think getting back 427 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: a lot of the covid unspent money that is fiscally responsible. 428 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: Going back to energy independence or at least allowing for 429 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: more energy production domestically, that is important. I think they 430 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: got all the right ideas here. Now here's the problem 431 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: that they have. We have forty three senators, actually forty 432 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: four because Senator Kennedy of Louisiana didn't sign the letter, 433 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: but he said he's not voting for a clean bill. 434 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: He told me last night on TV. The problem that 435 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden now has is I don't think Kevin McCarthy 436 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: can go back to his caucus and say, Joe Biden 437 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: says he'll sign this if we do ABC and D 438 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: and remove ABC and D. I don't think he's going 439 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: to get two hundred and eighteen members to agree on that. 440 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: So at that point, as long as the Senate holds, 441 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: and they've got forty four senators holding, then I think 442 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 1: they'll have no choice but to sign it, or if 443 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: there is a default, it'll be Joe Biden's decision, it'll 444 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: be there'll be one person responsible, Joe Biden. If this 445 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: country defaults for the first time in history, and Republicans 446 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: got to just buckle in and stay strong. They did 447 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: their job. They passed a debt sealing increase, but they 448 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: also put in place measures that make us more fiscally responsible. 449 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: That was the right thing to do. It's not onerous. 450 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 1: They're going back to twenty twenty two spending levels. That 451 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: is not an onerous you know, negatively impacting budget put 452 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: out by the Republicans. That is a fiscally responsible budge. 453 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: So anybody who says anything to the contrary, they're just lying. Anyway, 454 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: Appreciate the call, Bob, Thank you, Matt. I'm sorry Bob 455 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: in California. Bob, how are you glad you called? 456 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 7: I am well? I am well, Matt. Good to talk 457 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 7: to you. Thank you for taking me in today. 458 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: I have a question. Am I mad or you? Matt? 459 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 7: No, I'm too happy to be mad. 460 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 1: I said, Matt. I didn't say mad. You call me Matt. 461 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 7: I heard you say Matt to him, and I'm Bob. 462 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: Hi, Bob a Sean who's on first? I don't know, 463 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: it's third base? What's on your mind? 464 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 7: Hey? First of all, love the show. You're great American 465 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 7: and your people there and staff are just fabulous. The 466 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 7: reason I'm calling is that I'm a mortgage lender, have 467 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 7: been since the seventies, back when I was skinny and headed. 468 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 7: But the reason I'm calling is the government recently put 469 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 7: out a new price restriction and it's being mislabeled by 470 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 7: all of us that are not fully aware has something 471 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 7: to wear. A better credit score costs more money. Than 472 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 7: a worse credit score, and that's not entirely factual. The 473 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 7: truth is, the people with the great credit scores got 474 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 7: a higher ding on the cost per loan than the 475 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 7: higher cost given to somebody with lower credit. Tends to 476 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 7: say a lower credit person is still going to pay 477 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 7: through the nose a lot more their person with great credit. 478 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: All that, so, all of that is true what you're saying, 479 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: and that is that the people that work hard and 480 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: pay their bills on time and get rewarded with high 481 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: credit scores, which is necessary when you're out maybe want 482 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: a mortgage, or you want a loan for a car, 483 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: whatever it happens to be. Now they're going to be 484 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: penalized because of their good credit rating to subsidize people 485 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: that have lousy credit ratings. That's what you're talking about. 486 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 7: That is exactly correct, but it's not to the thousands 487 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 7: of dollars. And I've heard people in my industry say, well, 488 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 7: people should just stop paying their bills to get a 489 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 7: lower credit score, and that is counterproductive and that won't work. 490 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 7: That's not the way it rolls. But the bottom line 491 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,199 Speaker 7: is the federal government instituted this kind of change on 492 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 7: mortgages back in two thousand and eight, and the average 493 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 7: customer pays about six thousand dollars in the transaction for 494 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 7: the fact that the government gets us money because it's 495 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 7: either a credit score or a property or some kind of. 496 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: Oh, you can't believe that the amount of fees they 497 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: tack on in New York, especially New York City, if 498 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: you're buy property, it's insane. 499 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm not familiar with New York, but I will 500 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 7: tell you because I'm in the socialist Soviet Republic of California. 501 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 7: There's enough here. But this is just one of the 502 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,719 Speaker 7: items that goes through Fannie May and Freddie mac And 503 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 7: that's all I wanted to say and share. 504 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: Well, we appreciate it, and glad you're out there. And 505 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: I would say, you know, California is about to instant 506 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: to their program where your utility bill is not going 507 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: to be based on your usage, It'll be based on 508 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: your income. So in other words, higher income people will 509 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: pay more for their utilities and lower income people will 510 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: be subsidized by other people. They just think they can't 511 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: stop out doing themselves in terms of redistribution of wealth. 512 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. All right, let's say hi to 513 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: Mark in Florida, the Free State of Florida. What's up, Mark? 514 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: How are you glad you called? 515 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 5: Sir? 516 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 7: I'm doing good, Sean. 517 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 2: I appreciate you taking my phone call. 518 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 7: Had a question about Trump's appeal process. Where can he 519 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 7: go with it? Can he go to another place where 520 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 7: if they might be a little. 521 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 2: Bit gentler rather than the Democratic Republic of New York. 522 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 1: Look, I think he's going to take it up to 523 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: the appellate Division would be my first guess. I think 524 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: you get more reasonable, Like there were things in this 525 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: trial that I think had no business being brought in 526 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: as evidence, the access Hollywood tape, for example, being one. 527 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know what to say. It's 528 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: a very strange verdict in my mind. If they found 529 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: him not guilty of the allegation that EG and Carol 530 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: had made about rape, they found him guilty of assault, 531 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: and they found him guilty of defamation. So it's going 532 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: to be appealed. And do I think the odds are 533 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: high that it could be overturned on appeal, I actually do. 534 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 1: It's just a shame that, you know, this is where 535 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: he's spending his time. 536 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 7: It happened twenty nine years ago. 537 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 1: Am I right, Well, she doesn't remember. It was either 538 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: a twenty seven, twenty eight, or twenty nine years ago. 539 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: Nobody remembers the actual time date. They remember the place. 540 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: It was a changing room in a busy department store 541 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: in New York City. It makes no sense on paper, 542 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: you know, apparently you know. Look, do I think a 543 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: conservative can get a fair trial in New York? 544 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 7: I do not. 545 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: I don't. So I got to get the hell out 546 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: of here. I got to get out, bye bye, see ya. 547 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: I got to get to Florida the later. I got 548 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: to hang out with the sunshine and rainbows. And I 549 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: don't know. No taxes, no state income taxes, no state taxes. 550 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: I mean, what am I doing here? Makes me dumb? 551 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: I'm working on it. Eight hundred and nine to four 552 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: one SHAW is a number one way to save money 553 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: in these tough economic times.
