1 00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: A new headline has come out, and this is changing 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: by the moment. The team Biden sparked the effort to 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: kill the Hunter Biden laptop story is what the ex 4 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: CIA boss is now saying. The world around the Bidens 5 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 1: is unraveling very quickly over the last twenty four hours. Why, well, 6 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: it seems that now Democrats are really thinking about the 7 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: idea of going ahead and allowing Joe Biden, Hunter Biden 8 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: and the Biden crime family to go down. Why would 9 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: they want it to go down? Pretty simple, They're ready 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: for a new candidate. Now, I'm going to give you 11 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: all the latest and we have done now three different 12 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: podcasts on this in the last twenty four hours. That's 13 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: how quickly things have been changing. Just so you understand, 14 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: go back and listen to the last two podcasts. You'll 15 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: get some of that breaking news. I'm not going to 16 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: go over that part again. I'm going to give you 17 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: the latest stuff right now. What we now know is 18 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: it Hunter Biden has become the center of renewed political 19 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: controversy after it has now emerged at the former acting 20 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 1: CIA director Mike Morell, in fact, helped organize a letter 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: by fifty intelligence community figures ahead of the twenty twenty 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: presidential election, suggesting that the elked emails from Hunter Biden's 23 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: laptop had all the markings of Russian disinformation. Now here's 24 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: the part you really need to know about and understand. 25 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: They all knew they were lying to the American people 26 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: when they signed their name on to that letter saying 27 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: that it was Russian disinformation. The former acting CIA director 28 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: Morell made the confession in private sworn testimony by the 29 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: House Judiciary Committee, saying, quote, he acted after speaking to 30 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln, then part of the Biden campaign and now 31 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: the actual Secretary of the State of the United It's America, 32 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: because he wanted Joe Biden quote to win the election. So, 33 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: in other words, the deep State got together, they chose 34 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: their candidate. They then chose to lie to you, the 35 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: American people. And now two of the people involved in 36 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: this horrific cover up, Anthony Blincoln and the former acting 37 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: CIA director Mike Morele, did all of this so they 38 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: could pick their guy. In response to the claims, the 39 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: White House told Newsweek that House Republicans are quote weaponizing 40 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: their power to go after opponents and relitigate the twenty 41 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: twenty election with misleading claims. That's their best response. That's 42 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: how much trouble they know they're now in. That's a 43 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: weak response, by the way, saying this is about religating 44 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty when. 45 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: Clearly it's not. 46 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: Allegations go back to twenty twenty of Russian collusions sparked 47 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: the major controversy after the twenty sixteen election, and they 48 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: lied about the president the entire time. They knew they 49 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: were lying when they were beaching the first time and 50 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: the second time when embarrassing emails from the Democrat National 51 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: Committee were revealed by WikiLeaks. An investigation also by the 52 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: Special Counsel Robert Mueller, later concluded the hack was conducted 53 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: by quote Russian military intelligence officers in an effort to 54 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: boost then Republican candidate Donald Trump. We now know he 55 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: was lying to us about that as well. In just 56 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: weeks before the twenty twenty election, the New York Posts 57 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: published what it said were emails from Hunter Biden's laptop 58 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: recovered by a computer repair shop owner, which they claimed 59 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: showed improper business relationships. In response, the Biden campaign, the 60 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: now Secretary of State former CIA acting director got more 61 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: than fifty former intelligence officials including EXCIA chief John Brennan, 62 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: who knew he was signing his name letter that was 63 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: a lie. Michael Hayden also signing away his name to 64 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: a piece of paper that he knew was a lie. 65 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: Why Because they wanted Joe Biden to be president they 66 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: signed that open letter suggesting that Russians are involved in 67 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden email issue. John Radcliffe, you may remember, 68 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: then Director of National Intelligence, came out strongly contesting the 69 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: fifty person letter and their assessment. During an interview with 70 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: Fox News, he said, quote, we shared no intelligence with 71 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: Chairman Adam Shift or any other member of Congress at 72 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's laptop is part of a Russian disinformation campaign. 73 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: Adam Shift, the guy went after Trump now once but 74 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: twice on the Steele dossier, which he knew was actually 75 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: funded by Hillary Clinton's campaign, and he knew it was 76 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: also funded by the Democratic National Committee. Was then the 77 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: chair of the House Intelligence Committee. And what was he doing. 78 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: He was impeaching Trump, trying to overthrow the will of 79 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: the people. I would call this a clear attempt. In 80 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: March twenty twenty two, finally analysis started quote coming out 81 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: by the Washington Post. They concluded years later that thousands 82 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: of emails were authentic communication and there was no evidence 83 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: that had been found of any Russian role in their release, 84 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: so they were admitting it just too little. Over two 85 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: years late, appearing before the House Judiciary Committee, former Acting 86 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: CIA Director Mike Morrell said he was contacted by Anthony Blincoln. 87 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: Now remember Anthony Blinkon is now the Secretary of State. 88 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: He was contacted by Anthony Blincoln on or before October seventeenth, 89 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, which triggered that intent, leading him to organize 90 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: the letter, which was provided then to Politico to undermine 91 00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: the entire reporting and shut down the story. Morele, the 92 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: former acting CIA director admitted under oath that he was 93 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: he acted because quote this is a direct quote from 94 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: what he said to Congress sworn testimony, I wanted him 95 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: Biden to win the election. He added that the Biden 96 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: campaign chairman later called to thank me for putting the 97 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: statement out. Speaking to Newsweek, White House spokesman commented saying this, 98 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: instead of working with President Biden on the issues that 99 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: matter the most to the American people, like lowering costs 100 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: or tackling gun violence, House Republicans are weaponizing their power 101 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: to go after their political opponents and relitigate the twenty 102 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: twenty election with misleading claims. This is all happening as 103 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: they move ahead on a dangerous plan to push Americans 104 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: into default and an economic crisis quote unquote. That's how 105 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: the Democrats are now responding. The American people see these 106 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: House GOP attacks for what they are, political stunts intended 107 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: to hurt President Biden and House Republicans would be wise 108 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: to instaid focus on doing their job, raising the debt 109 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: ceiling to avoid an economic catastrophe, and working together with 110 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: President to make actual progress on important issues, the White 111 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: House went on to say in their statement. Newsweek also 112 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: contacted Hunter Biden's legal representatives for comment, as the Judiciary 113 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: Committee staff requesting a full transcript of Morell's remarks. Separately, 114 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: we also know about the other story that's broken this 115 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: week that an irs US tax special agent has said 116 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: he's prepared to testify before Congress that a criminal investigation 117 00:07:54,720 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: into Hunter Biden's business dealings was impacted by considerations quote unquote. 118 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: The claim was made by the agent's lawyer, Mark Leido 119 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: during an interview with CBS News. Listen to what CBS 120 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: had to say was they were leading their broadcasts with 121 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: this news Goodnight. 122 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 3: There is breaking news in the federal criminal investigation into 123 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 3: Hunter Biden's tax returns. An attorney for an IRS supervisor 124 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: sent a letter to lawmakers today asking for whistleblower protection, 125 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 3: saying his client has information that suggests the investigation is 126 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: being improperly influenced by quote, preferential treatment and politics. Here 127 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: is CBS News Chief investigative correspondent, Jim Axelrod. 128 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: My client wants to come forward to Congress. He's ready 129 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 4: to be questioned about what he knows and what he 130 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 4: experienced under the proper legal protections. 131 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 5: Attorney Mark Ladle's client is a supervisory special agent at 132 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 5: the IRS who's prepared to tell Congress the investigation he's 133 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 5: been working on has been hampered by what he thinks 134 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 5: is special treatment. 135 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 4: Typical steps that a law enforcement investigator would take were 136 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 4: compromised because of political considerations. 137 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 5: Lytel wouldn't talk in specifics, declining to identify either his 138 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 5: client or the target of the investigation his client helped conduct. 139 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: Can you identify him? 140 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 6: I can't at this stage, Jim. 141 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 5: But CBS News has learned the investigation the whistleblower worked 142 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 5: on is about Hunter Biden. 143 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 6: What we're doing is is being completely cooperative. 144 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 5: That was Biden two years ago, after the DOJ opened 145 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 5: an investigation into his finances. The FBI collected what it 146 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 5: believed was sufficient evidence to charge Biden with tax crimes, 147 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 5: and last year sent its findings to the US Attorney 148 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 5: in Delaware. Since then, silence, Why can't your client talk 149 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 5: to us directly? 150 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 4: At this point, there are laws that provide protection to whistleblowers, 151 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: and he has to know navigate that today. 152 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 5: Lytel sent this letter to Congress, claiming his client could 153 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 5: provide information that would contradict sworn testimony by a senior 154 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 5: political appointee. 155 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 7: I have promised to ensure that he's able to carry 156 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 7: out his investigation. 157 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 5: CBS News has learned that was Attorney General Merrick Garland, 158 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 5: who gave testimony about the Trump appointed US attorney in 159 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 5: Delaware conducting the Hunter Biden investigation. Lytel says, neither he 160 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 5: nor his client are motivated by politics. Would you find 161 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 5: any evidence or allegation of a political agenda? 162 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 8: Now? 163 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 4: To him, the truth is one truth and he wants 164 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 4: to come forward with it. 165 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 5: Lytel told us the whistleblower has been with the IRS 166 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 5: for more than a decade and has extensive documentation to 167 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 5: support his allegations. 168 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 4: The things he's been through are very well documented in 169 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 4: emails and other communications with the Department of Justice. 170 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 5: We asked Mark Lytel if there's a chance his client 171 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 5: can only see his slice of the investigation and not 172 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 5: the big picture. He said that's possible, but that his 173 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 5: client had expressed his concerns to superiors a number of 174 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 5: times before seeking whistle blower status. Neither the IRS, Department 175 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 5: of Justice or a lawyer for Hunter Biden would comment. 176 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: That's CBS News. 177 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: That report is the longest they've ever spent on anything 178 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: dealing with Hunter Biden. Why are they doing this now? 179 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: Because headline after headline is now breaking on this story 180 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: and they know it. We know that the XCIA chief 181 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: said that he got the spies to write the false 182 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop letter right before the election to help 183 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden because he wanted his words. 184 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 2: He wanted Joe Biden to win. 185 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: We know the Biden campaign and the Secretary of State 186 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: Anthony blink and worked and orchestrated that intel letter to 187 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: discredit Hunter Biden and the laptop story. We know that 188 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: the fifty one former intelligence officials who signed that letter 189 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: in October of twenty twenty knew that they were lying. 190 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: They knew they were lying. They knew they were lying 191 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: the entire time. And this former CIA official admitted that 192 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: then Biden campaign senior advisor now Secretary of State Anthony 193 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: Blincoln played a role in the inception of that public 194 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: statement that was signed by the current and past intelligence 195 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: officials claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop was part of 196 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: a Russian disinformation campaign. These people are pure evil. This 197 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: is what happens in third world countries. This is what 198 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: happens in Russia, in China, Banana, Republic. Ask this is 199 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: the corruption of the by crime family and everybody that 200 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: was helping covering it up. They knew why they were 201 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: doing it. They wanted the jobs. They wanted the jobs, folks. 202 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln's on a presidential campaign now he's Secretary of State. 203 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 2: Was the lie worth it? Absolutely? 204 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 1: These former CIA operatives, these former Intel officials, did they 205 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: get jobs? 206 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: Yes?

Okay, this is 210 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: the corruption that happens, and everybody understands it. Now, this 211 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: lawyer who is whistleblowing and this may be the most 212 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: damning moment for the Biden crime family, has now come 213 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: out and talked even more about his client on Fox 214 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: News Channel with Brett Bher Listen carefully, Tourney Mark lytel Mark, thanks. 215 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 6: For being here, Brett, thanks for having me. 216 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 9: First of all, why is your client not coming forward publicly? 217 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 10: Why don't why can't we know. 218 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 6: Who he is? 219 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 4: So, Brett, great question. There are laws in place, federal 220 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 4: laws that protect the privacy of taxpayers and taxpayer information. 221 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 4: They're very specific about what can be said and what 222 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 4: can't be said, and under what circumstances that can take place. 223 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 4: My client wants to specifically follow those laws, and they 224 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 4: involve certain procedures. In particular, when approaching Congress, there's only 225 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 4: specific committees that are allowed or that are empowered to 226 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 4: grant this authority for a whistleblower to come forward to 227 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 4: talk about taxpayer information. 228 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 9: So when someone says, maybe this is politically motivated, how 229 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 9: do you respond to that? 230 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 4: Well, I can say we are not able to talk 231 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 4: about any particular cases, and there's no my client wants 232 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 4: to come forward. He's not a political person, he's not 233 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 4: a social media person. He's not coming here with the 234 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 4: political agenda. 235 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 9: He's been at the IRS for a long time. 236 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 4: He's been at the IRS for more than ten years, 237 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 4: and now he's a supervisory special Agent. He's been trusted 238 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 4: at the IRS. He's actually been trusted as an assistant 239 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 4: special Agent in charge in other cities and trusted with 240 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: international investigations and working with other countries tax enforcement bureaus. 241 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 9: You sent this letter to the Senates, the Finance and 242 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 9: Ranking of the Finance Committee, Judiciary, both Whistleblower Protection and 243 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 9: Chuck Rassley. Also to the House Ways and Means, Chairman 244 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 9: of the Ranking Jim Jordan, Jerry Nadler, and Judiciary, and 245 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 9: in it it says that your client has information that 246 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 9: contradicts sworn testimony to Congress by senior political appointee, failure 247 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 9: to mitigate clear conflicts of interest, and ultimate disposition of 248 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 9: this case that you're talking about, and examples of preferential 249 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 9: treatment and politics improperly infecting decisions as laid out in 250 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 9: this letter. Is their documentation to support this, not just 251 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 9: someone saying this is what I saw, but actual documentation. 252 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 6: Yes, Brett. 253 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: So, my client's a career law enforcement officer who is 254 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 4: respected within the IRS, and he teaches other agents how 255 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 4: to properly do investigations. He knows when to spot when 256 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 4: other invest when investigative steps aren't done in the traditional 257 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 4: way to get at the truth. And he has spotted 258 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 4: and observed things that are done differently in this particular matter, 259 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 4: which I can't identify, and he wants to talk about them, 260 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 4: and he believes that they were influenced by politics you 261 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 4: can identify. 262 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 9: But we have sources telling us that this has to 263 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 9: do with the Hunter Biden investigation. And to that point, 264 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 9: Hunter Brden's attorney, Chris Clark, put out a statement in 265 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 9: which he says, it appears this IRS agent has committed 266 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 9: a crime. It is a felony for an IRS agent 267 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 9: to improperly disclose information about an ongoing tax investigation. 268 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 10: The ARS has incredible. 269 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 9: Power, and abusing that power by targeting and embarrassing or 270 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 9: disclosing information about a private citizen's tax matters, undermines Americans' 271 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 9: faith in the federal government. Unfortunately, that is what has 272 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 9: happened and is happening here in an attempt to harm 273 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 9: my client. 274 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 4: You know, it's really unfortunate that that statement was made. 275 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 4: You know, mister Clark made that statement. My client wrestled 276 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 4: with whether or not to come forward.

At 278 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 4: the end of the day, he decided that he could 279 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 4: not live with himself if he stayed quiet and said nothing. 280 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: This is a career law enforcement officer. 281 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: This is a guy that trains irs agents on how 282 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: to do investigations. This is a guy that clearly was 283 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: so bothered by the corruption and the covering up of 284 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden crime family.

At 333 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 4: the end of the day, he decided that he could 334 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 4: not live with himself if he stayed quiet and said nothing. 335 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 6: So he's coming forward. 336 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 4: But he knows that he's going to be attacked, and 337 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 4: you know, really attacks like this are kind of what 338 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 4: he was worried about. But he wants to come forward 339 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 4: tell the truth. He's instructed us to reach out to 340 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 4: both Democrats and Republicans on the Hill and let those 341 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 4: statements that if they want to hear him, and have 342 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 4: them come into the Hill and talk to them. 343 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 6: Let those statements rest where they are. 344 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 10: I mean, you see that as fairly threatening that. 345 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 4: Now, I don't think it helps you know, I don't 346 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 4: think it helps whistleblowers as a whole. I mean, there 347 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 4: is a strong contingent on the Hill that believes in 348 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 4: the whistleblower programs to have to shine a light on 349 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 4: government agencies and programs and to enable people to come 350 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 4: forward without getting threatened. And it's unfortunate that that statement 351 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 4: was made. 352 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 9: You mentioned Democrats and Republicans both were asked about it today. 353 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 10: Here's some sound from a couple of them. 354 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 11: There is facts and evidence that contradict sworn testimony before 355 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 11: Congress is a five alarm fire when it comes to 356 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 11: any potential investigation and the politicization of these agencies. 357 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 7: We take all whistleblowers statements seriously as we should. Some 358 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 7: turn out to be very important and some not. But 359 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 7: we take them all seriously at the outset and look 360 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 7: at them closely. 361 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 9: So you've requested this whistleblower protection. There is that advanced 362 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 9: from that request. 363 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 4: Yesterday we sent the letter out to the various committees 364 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 4: that have these authorities. We have received outreach this morning 365 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,479 Speaker 4: and we're in current dialogue. We haven't received outreach from 366 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 4: every committee, but we've received dialogue some of the committee 367 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 4: and we're in a dialogue with what's next steps to take. 368 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 10: A positive dialogue, positive. 369 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 4: Dialogue expressing interest to come forward. One of the things 370 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 4: my client insists on is that he only come in 371 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 4: to talk to both Democrats and Republicans and they can 372 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 4: all ask him questions and cross examine them, and he 373 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 4: has documents that. 374 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 6: Will support what he has to say. 375 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 4: One of the difficulties about tax secrecy laws, tax privacy 376 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 4: laws are some of the things he can't tell me 377 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 4: as his lawyer without and so we've instructed him don't 378 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 4: do that. 379 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 6: We want to have him follow those laws. Congress can 380 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 6: enable him to do that. 381 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 9: Last thing, this is the White House. One of the 382 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 9: lists is contradicting sworn testimony to Congress by a senior 383 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 9: political appointee. There's a lot of reporting out there that 384 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 9: this may be the Attorney General. 385 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 10: Take a listen to the White House today. 386 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 11: He's the president confident that his Attorney general has not 387 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 11: held polliatical obligations here when. 388 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 12: It comes to this the mesuge again, the President has 389 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 12: always been cleared during the campaign during his presidency that 390 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 12: the Department of Justice should have independence, they should not 391 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 12: be politicized, and they should be able to do their job. 392 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 2: Independent leages. 393 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 9: Essentially, whether the Attorney General said something on Capitol Hill 394 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 9: could be at matter. I know you can't talk about 395 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 9: the specifics, but does your client think that this, what 396 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 9: he's coming forward with is explosive, is. 397 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 10: Jarring. 398 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 4: So I can't talk specific about who it was that 399 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 4: my client's talking about, and I know it has been a 400 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 4: lot of reporting, and I can't address that. What I 401 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 4: can say is a career law enforcement officer who knows 402 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 4: the right way to do an investigation when he hears 403 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 4: a senior politically appointed official at the Department of Justice 404 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 4: sworn testimony say something and in his mind it's directly 405 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: contradictory to what he knows is going on with the investigation. 406 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 6: And what he can prove with documents, what he can 407 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 6: prove with documents he wants to come forward. 408 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 9: Mark Lable, we appreciate your time, and you hear the 409 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 9: attorney and again I think it's clear he's scared. 410 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 2: Now. 411 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: What we do know from all this is there's one 412 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: man who's a liar. And we know he's a liar 413 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: now from all of this. And we know this now 414 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: from the man who is in charge of putting that 415 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: letter together said, yeah, we lied to the American people, right, 416 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: we got this letter together. 417 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: We knew it was a lie. 418 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: We put it together with he's fifty one, you know, 419 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: top people in the intelligence community saying that the Hunter 420 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: Biden laptop was Russian disinformation? Why do we lie because 421 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: we wanted Joe Biden to win. One person that knew 422 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: he was lying to you and he was running for 423 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: president is Joe Biden. Here's Biden his own words on 424 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden laptop. This was back during the presidential 425 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: debates in twenty twenty fifty former. 426 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 13: But he's saying is a bunch of garbage. This is 427 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 13: classically intelligence folks who said that what this he's accusing 428 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 13: me of is a Russian plant. 429 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 2: They have said that this is has. 430 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 13: All the four five former heads of the CIA, both 431 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 13: parties say what he's saying is a bunch of garbage. 432 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 13: This is classic. We have four days left and all 433 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 13: of a sudden, there's a laptop. There's overwhelming evidence that 434 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 13: from the intelligence community that the Russians are engaged the. 435 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 6: Story from the fall of Altri Simeider. Yes, yes, yes, I. 436 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 2: Know you'd ask you. I have no response campaign. 437 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 13: It's the lastest effort in this desperate campaign to smear 438 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 13: me and my family. The vast majority of the intelligence 439 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 13: people have come out and said there's no basis at 440 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 13: all there. 441 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: It is over and over again, from the debates to interviews. 442 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. Joe Biden is a liar. He was 443 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: lying to you the entire time. CBS News coming out 444 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: with their new report about the lies of the deep State. 445 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: Here's what they said earlier. 446 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 14: According to a letter released Thursday nights from the Republican 447 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 14: chairman of the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees, from We're 448 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 14: a Dempity, director Michael Morrell told congressional investigators the days 449 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 14: after the laptop story, Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln, then 450 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 14: a Biden campaign advisor, reached out to Morell and said 451 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 14: in motion the events that led to the intelligence officials 452 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 14: public statement. 453 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: They're not the only ones turning on the Biden White House. 454 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: NBC News now reporting there's growing frustration inside the FBI. 455 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 2: Why listen to. 456 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 15: Senior law enforcement officials describing to NBC News growing frustration 457 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 15: inside the FBI because federal investigators finished the bulk of 458 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 15: their work about a year ago and suspect political interference 459 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 15: is delaying the process. 460 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: And then you moved to ABC News, ABC News doing 461 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: stand ups in front of the White House saying this. 462 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 16: The attorney FO one hundred Biden says, the agent is 463 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 16: committing a crime by discussing an ongoing tax investigation and 464 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 16: a timp to harm the president's son. But the whistleblowers 465 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 16: attorney just told me such claims are basis. 466 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: I've been covering this twenty sixteen, and what I can 467 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: tell you right now is one simple thing. I have 468 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: never been able on the Hunter Biden story to play 469 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: this much audio for you. I have never had days 470 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: where ABCNBC and CBS we're all covering Hunter Biden and 471 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: this type of corruption. And the reason why is because 472 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: they refused to do it because they had to protect him. 473 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: The question now is why, why has this changed? What 474 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: has changed? Jim Jordan explaining how Anthony Blincoln and the 475 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: Biden campaign were behind the letter that falsely claimed that 476 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation. Listen to what he had 477 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: to say about this with Laura Ingram. 478 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 8: This has been political from the get go, clear back 479 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 8: to the moral situation. When the story came out on 480 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 8: October fourteenth, twenty twenty, about the Biden business operation and 481 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 8: was then Vice President Joe Biden involved, there was some 482 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 8: concern that he wanted and then quickly it turns in 483 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 8: this political operation, that letter that became the basis for 484 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 8: suppressing the story and keeping it from the American people 485 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 8: just days before the most important election we have election 486 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 8: for President of United States. So understand what happened, Laura. 487 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 8: The fourteenth post as the story. The seventeenth, Tony Blaken, 488 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 8: senior advisor to the Biden campaign, current Secretary of State, 489 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 8: contacts Mike Morell, gets him interested in this. Mike Morell 490 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 8: looks at it, the next day, organizes on the eighteenth 491 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 8: all these other people to sign the letter.
