1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Thanks Scott han An Hour two Sean Hannity Show, eight 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: hundred and nine four one, Shawns a number if you 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:06,960 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. 4 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 2: I know. 5 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: The state run legacy media mob has largely been ignoring 6 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 1: how the deep state is being exposed. There's two big 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,319 Speaker 1: stories out today. One the White House, the Trump White 8 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: House Council raising very serious questions about the legality of 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's final wave of pardons and commutations, urging the 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: DOJ and Congress to interview the former president's advisors to 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: determine if he truly authorized acts of clemency and pardons 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: signed by an auto pen operated by his staff, and 13 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: more and more. Even Joe Biden's interview in The New 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: York Times indicate that he only set down standards and 15 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: criteria which would invalidate probably every one of them. 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 2: And so we're going to get to the bottom of that. 17 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: The other big issue is material evidence has been discovered 18 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: in previously secret, prohibited access case files raising concern about 19 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: FBI agents and the abuse of their authority or obstruction 20 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: of investigations to help democrats. Anyway, here, with all the 21 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: deep dive investigative reporting, is our friend John Solomon again, 22 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: chief investigative reporter, founder editor in chief Justinnews dot com. 23 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: Sir, how are you. 24 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 3: I'm well, you said those up right. It's an amazing 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 3: moment to see some of these documents come out. I'm 26 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 3: really shocked by some of the things we're finding right now. 27 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: All right, let's start with commutations and pardons and auto 28 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: pen and Joe Biden and in his own words, I 29 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: find it pretty damning. And that was the New York 30 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,639 Speaker 1: Times interview. But if you listen to White House Counsel 31 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: David Warrington, and you wrote this in your piece and 32 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: a memo to President Donald Trump's Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, 33 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: they do not have the authority to conduct interviews the 34 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: White House Council, doesn't. We recommend that you approved making 35 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: the information contained in this memorandum and the supporting materials 36 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: available to entities that do have the power explain that. 37 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a very powerful moment in the in 38 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: the unraveling of the Biden era and potentially what we 39 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: didn't know about President Biden because it was hidden from us. 40 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: First off, what Dave Warrington's investigation found was that the 41 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 3: President Joe Biden's staff believed he had a legal obligation 42 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 3: to sign by hand any pardons that he gave. That 43 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: was the rule that they created at the beginning of 44 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: the presidency. But as the presidency went on, Joe Biden 45 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 3: was working less and less. He was in the office 46 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 3: lesson s and they couldn't get pardons in front of him. 47 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: There was a memo at one point says because of 48 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 3: the president's limited schedule, sometimes things weak to get a 49 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 3: single pardon from him. At some point, Joe Biden became 50 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: so disinterested in exercising one of the most awesome powers 51 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: that he had his presidents, the pardoner of the power 52 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:57,119 Speaker 3: to partner commutation. He outsourced it to Vice President Kamala Harris, which, 53 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 3: by the way, the constitution doesn't allow for. That is 54 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: a body of evidences out there. And now what Dave 55 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 3: Warrington says is listen to make sure that these memos 56 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 3: are an accurate reflection, to make sure we can come 57 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: to a question about whether these commutations and pardons were legal. Remember, 58 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 3: President Biden gave thirty seven people a reprieve from death 59 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 3: pamilies that juries that imposed them. He undid the will 60 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 3: of the juries. They may be invalid based on some 61 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: of the evidence. What Dave Warranton is asking is that 62 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: the Justice Department in Congress, do subpoenas, do compelled interviews, 63 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 3: and find out if these documents are an accurate reflection. 64 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 3: If they are, there's a strong possibility that the Trump 65 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 3: Justice Department could come and declare some of those pardons 66 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: and commutations legally in balot. 67 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: All right, So what this thing concludes with, according to 68 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: the memo, is if Biden made every clemency decision pardon decision, 69 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: then why do is briefing books from December of twenty 70 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: twenty four to January twenty twenty five contain nothing of 71 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: substance on pardons mutations that he allegedly approved. Now, that 72 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: goes to a previous report that you had where his 73 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: very own Department of Justice, the second in command, and 74 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: this is behind Meryk Garland was warning two days before 75 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: Joe left office that raising the question of the legality 76 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: of all of that. So even they thought that they 77 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: had legal issues going into this, Oh. 78 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, they had legal issues at the beginning. They believe 79 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 3: the president has an obligation to sign he uses the 80 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 3: auto pen instead, and as they get towards the end, 81 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: they're very concerned that these mass category pardons where the 82 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: president isn't even identifying which people he might be pardoning. 83 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: He just like, hey, here's a class. Did you guys 84 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 3: figure it out? They were deeply concerned that this was 85 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: illegal and not sustainable in the courts. And that is 86 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: the mess that Joe Biden left this country as he 87 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 3: exited the White House. And I think we're going to 88 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: have to walk through this for a period of time 89 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: until we get some final answers. But the fact that 90 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: his own Justice Department had concerns about his behavior, that is, 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 3: his own staff couldn't get him to pay attention to pardons, 92 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 3: and that's why he was outsourcing it. And at the 93 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 3: very beginning they told the guy, hey, you got to 94 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 3: sign on the dotted line. An auto pen doesn't work. 95 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 3: The fact it didn't allow any of those three concerns, 96 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 3: I think is going to become a major issue. I 97 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 3: would expect James Comer to ramp up these interviews and 98 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: maybe the Justice Department to start to take some action. 99 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 3: And then there's one final part, because about a month 100 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 3: ago President Biden raried his head up and said, I listen, 101 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 3: the reason I used the auto pen is that there 102 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: were fifteen hundred pardons that I didn't have time to 103 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 3: sign them all, and Dave Warrington's great review puts the 104 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 3: lie to that one. It turns out those mass pardons 105 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: only required two personal signature, so it wasn't a lot 106 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: of work. It wasn't fifteen hundred signatures. But unfortunately Joe 107 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: Biden didn't do that. As far as we can tell, 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: no evidence in the arch is that he attended the 109 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 3: meetings or that he personally approved some of these. And 110 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 3: I think given that there's going to be a pretty 111 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: strong investigation in Congress and the Justice Department the next 112 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: few weeks, and I wouldn't be surprised before we get 113 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 3: to the holidays season the Justice departments made a determination 114 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 3: on the legality of some of these pardons and commutations. 115 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: Well, right after you were on the program late last week, 116 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: we had on James Comer the House Overside Committee, and 117 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: he raised the possibility of bringing in people if Kamala 118 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: Harris was in fact, if this was handed off to her, 119 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: of her being called in, maybe Biden family members being 120 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: called in something you and I've discussed in the past, 121 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: and that would include you know, Hunter Biden, Jim Biden 122 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: people that as a matter of law, would not have 123 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: the ability to invoke the Fifth Amendment because they themselves 124 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: got these pardons. And by the way, I'd call an 125 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: Adam schiff while I'm at it. 126 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 3: Uh oh, yeah, I think all of that. And Kamala Harris, 127 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 3: I think is one of those, as you mentioned, that 128 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 3: is on the circle list now. I think given the 129 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 3: fact that there's a clear reference that the President outsourced 130 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 3: these pardon decisions to her, knowing what she did could 131 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 3: be very significant, and she hesitated in most congressional investigations 132 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 3: to date, I think she is next up in the 133 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: potential bise of congressional subpoene and congressional interviews. So more 134 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 3: to come. 135 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: You've raised other important questions, and the memo raised his questions. 136 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: If the president approved the pardons of commutations, why did 137 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: staff often wait days before communicating any of these decisions. 138 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: Why were these not included in any memos? Why is 139 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: it on a whole variety of issues? You know, why 140 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: didn't anybody know who ultimately made the decision to use 141 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: the auto pen? You know, were staffers to the Chief 142 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: of Staff and Deputy chief of Staff for policies sending 143 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: emails on their behalf regarding pardons and other issues without 144 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: informing recipients. And if he was fit to serve meeting 145 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: Joe Biden as president, why did he need cheat sheets 146 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: explaining that he had proved the commutations for fifteen hundred people? 147 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: And why did he tell the New York Times that 148 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: he set down criteria and standards. I'll add that question myself. 149 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, the fact that his briefing books silent on 150 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 3: these issues. You were president, the briefing book, doesn't it 151 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 3: and what you're going to be doing today. Never in 152 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 3: the briefing book is the Hey, mister president, you're going 153 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: to sign these fifteen hundred car or you're going to 154 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 3: improve these fifteen hundred commutations for people who know how 155 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: the paperwork process works in the White House. It is 156 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: a red flag and potentially a smoking gun that the 157 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 3: president's own briefing books suggested. We all. 158 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: Explain why his own Justice Department only two days before 159 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: he left office, the second in charge behind or one 160 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: of the top lieutenants behind Murray garla and raised the 161 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: issue two days before they left the White House. 162 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, because they knew there were these categories of people 163 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: who had gotten either drug offenses or COVID pendenty during 164 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 3: the COVID era, and Joe Biden did not have the time, 165 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: nor was there any evidence that anyone had looked at 166 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 3: all the names and said who was on this list? 167 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 3: As the president personally improving everyone, is he just giving 168 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 3: an okay to let someone else decide that and to 169 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 3: them that was a miss use of the part and power. 170 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: You know, the great thing about the parton power in 171 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 3: its history, it's derived from British law going all the 172 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: way back to the thirteenth century, and American courts and 173 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: British courts in the derision of the development of this 174 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: law are very clear. Any deviation from the appropriate process 175 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 3: the gates they pardon. That is the long term standard 176 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 3: that the courts have set. And right now there's pretty 177 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 3: strong evidence that Joe Biden didn't deviated went way off 178 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: course on this and that may come around to invalidate 179 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 3: some of these decisions he made. Imagine, if you're sitting 180 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 3: on death rowe, you think you got off and you 181 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 3: might be put back on now Joe Biden may have 182 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 3: played the ultimate painful trick on you. 183 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: All right, quick break more with Investigative Reporter founder editor 184 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: in chief Justinnews dot Com.

Can you go into 191 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: detail the piece you wrote up about how material evidence 192 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: has now been discovered and previously quote secret prohibited access 193 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 1: case files raising concern about FBI agent's abuse of authority 194 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: or obstruction of investigations. This is what we have referred 195 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: to often over the years as the deep state. 196 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, now, this could be one of the most significant developments. 197 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 3: And what we're learning is that Cash Betel and his 198 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 3: team using career agents letting the people do their job, 199 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 3: agents doing their job without political interfaarence are discovering that 200 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: inside all of these prohibited case files these are case files, 201 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: or most agents, even if you were working on a case, 202 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 3: you weren't allowed to access some of the evidence. It 203 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 3: was kept off of the books. And these are the 204 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 3: most sensitive investigations about Hillary Clinton, Hunter Bidenman and the 205 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 3: Clinton Foundation and CEFC, the China company that was paying 206 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 3: lots of money to Hunter Biden and the Biden family. 207 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 3: These were kept off the books, and when Cash Bettel's 208 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 3: team got to look inside the books, they started to 209 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 3: discover some very various concerns timelines that suggested that there 210 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 3: was obstruction and interference not by witnesses. Normally, obstruction charges 211 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: are you're investigating in a witness or somebody gets involved 212 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 3: and tries to block the FBI. The FBI was blocking 213 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 3: prosecutors from doing their job. And you begin to see 214 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: a senior executives so concerned by what their bosses are 215 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 3: doing above them, what the Andy mccabs and James Comey's 216 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 3: of the world were doing above them, they start writing 217 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 3: memos to file keeping book on their bosses so that 218 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 3: if anything ever comes to this, they wrote down a memorial, 219 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 3: a memo saying, hey, for some reason, we didn't follow 220 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: the rules there for some reason, Hillary Clinton got a pass. 221 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 3: This is so extraordinary, It's the rarest thing. I just 222 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 3: interviewed an FBI agent worked for more than two decades 223 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 3: in the fay SA. I never wrote a memo of 224 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 3: I never felt in the entire time in twenty years, 225 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 3: I needed to do something like that, and yet here 226 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 3: you have the executive assistant director, like the number three 227 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 3: official in the FBI writing memos saying, this happened is 228 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: a little unusual about Hillary Clinton's laptop. I'm writing it, 229 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 3: And he writes it the day before the election, the 230 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: September seventh, twenty sixteen, just before Donald Trump wins. This 231 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 3: guy feels so compelled by what he witnesses his boss 232 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 3: is doing that he actually writes a memoo file. And 233 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 3: they're discovering this. Now timeline is written by people saying, hey, 234 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: the story out there isn't what it is. This is 235 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 3: what really happened. You see this protection racket around Democrats, 236 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton, Hunter Biden, people like that. And then of 237 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 3: course the abuse is in trying to pursue the Donald 238 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 3: Trumps and the Carter Pages and the George Papadopolis. It 239 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 3: is almost when I just talked to two or three people, like, 240 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 3: can you ever remember a time where the FBI was 241 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: investigating its own agent's obstruction? Like? Never, No, this is 242 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 3: like unprecedented. So what cash Betel has done has now 243 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 3: created a body of evans to go look at They'm 244 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 3: going to is ented to the Justice Department as far 245 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: as I can tell the Justice Department will decide whether 246 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 3: some of the things that the FBI did actually obstructed 247 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 3: prosecutors from doing their job in legitimate criminal investigations. That 248 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 3: is a rear and unprecedent moment. 249 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: Now, if you go back to June, the Senate Judiciary 250 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,319 Speaker 1: Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley urged the FBI to probe how 251 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: the bureau under James Colemy used the segregated system is 252 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: what you're describing here of politically sensitive cases known as 253 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: prohibited access case files. Fast forward to FBI Director Cash 254 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: Bettel recently locating a document showing that then Executive assistant 255 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: Director Randall Coleman wrote a memo to file the day 256 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: before the twenty sixteen presidential election. That's the one where 257 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: Donald trumpete Hillary Clinton laying out the unusual behavior of 258 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: FBI managers after fresh evidence in Clinton's classified email scandal 259 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: were discovered on former Congressman Anthony laptop. 260 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 3: This goes back to the shut it down memo we 261 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 3: talked about in your show a few weeks ago when 262 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 3: I broke that. So the FBI has two simultaneous investigations 263 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 3: going on. Hither Clinton won the email case one the 264 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: pay to play allegations at the Clinton Foundation, going all 265 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 3: the way back to Peter Schweitzer's great book. Both are 266 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: highly active in the middle of the twenty sixteen election, 267 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, Andy McCabe steps in and said, 268 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 3: no more, and we're investigating Hillary Clinton's foundation unless I 269 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 3: prove it. And then the Deputy Attorney General comes in, 270 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 3: Sally Aids, who works for Obama, saying shut it down. 271 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 3: I don't want any more investigation. That's in it of 272 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: its self obstruction. But then something happens to Anthony Wiener 273 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 3: laptop has found and on that laptop are all these 274 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: emails that are related to the private server. Now, most 275 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 3: of us have known about that and the private email 276 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 3: server in the mishandling of the FBI net. But there 277 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 3: was a second component about the discovery of the emails 278 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 3: that is now concerned Cash Betel's leadership team. Those emails 279 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 3: were not only relevant to whether she moved classified information 280 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: through her server, they had potential evidence of whether deals 281 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 3: were being made or if you made a donation to 282 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 3: the Cooton Foundation you could get a favor from the 283 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: State Department. And it appears there is strong concern based 284 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 3: on what mister Coleman and others have written in these 285 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 3: memos that they may have been keeping that from investigators 286 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 3: so that Hillary Culton wouldn't face a potential crowd home 287 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 3: investigation or new evidence in that. That's what this is 288 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 3: all about, this new memo. 289 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: John Solomon, justinnews dot com, Thank you, sir, appreciate your 290 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: time as always. 291 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 3: To be with you. Shawn, thank you so much. 292 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: You know, with kids going back to school, you would 293 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: think that things have changed now. Things are dramatically different 294 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: than they were maybe four or five years ago in 295 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: terms of DEI and and you know, woke education in schools. 296 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: It has been challenged. Donald Trump has taken it to 297 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: a new level. As a result, there have been significant changes, 298 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: but not enough in terms of changes. Parental rights are 299 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: front and center, you know, still for your kids in 300 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: education debates. That's why you need tiger moms like Linda 301 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: that show up at school board meetings and cause chaos. 302 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: Do you cause chaos when you go if necessary? Absolutely 303 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: anything for my children. And do they know you by name? 304 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 2: I think they know me pretty well. 305 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, they know they know, Oh there she is. When 306 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: you walk in the room, it's like, oh no, it's 307 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: going to be one of those meetings, right, How often 308 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: does that happen? I would say every meeting is like that. 309 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 2: You know, you have to stand up against the work ideology. 310 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 2: I'm all in, I'm not afraid. I'll love to fight. Well, 311 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 2: you're fighting. 312 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: You know, if we would just focus on reading, writing, math, science, history, computers, 313 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: you know, things that will benefit kids' lives, certainly imposing 314 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: the you know, the golden rule love God. Well, you 315 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: can't mention God in a lot of public schools. Love 316 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: God with all your heart, mind, body and soul, and 317 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: your neighbor as yourself, and the simple golden rule of 318 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: you know, treat others the way you want to be treated. 319 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: It kind of covers every HR book from start to finish. 320 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: I don't care if it's five hundred pages or five pages. 321 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: But we're still dealing with a lot of these issues now. 322 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: Gene Hamilton's going to join us in a second, the 323 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: new president of American First Legal. You might recall that 324 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: was started by Steven Miller. He has launched a new 325 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: parent and Student Action Center.

Every parent across the country is 397 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 4: dealing with similar issues on a daily basis, and so 398 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 4: this new action center is precisely for those types of 399 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 4: situations like the clip you played. Say that your daughter 400 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 4: is attending school and your school district has a policy 401 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 4: that allows young men to go into the bathroom with her. 402 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 4: We have a template for you and an explainer and 403 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 4: resources to be able to push back, to file a 404 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 4: complaint asserting your child's rights under Title nine of the 405 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 4: Civil Rights Act.

So, 412 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 4: whether we're talking about Title nine, whether we're talking about 413 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 4: race discriminations under Title six, whether we're talking about radical 414 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 4: curricula being introduced into schools, in proper surveys, soliciting their 415 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 4: views on matters of sexuality, and all kinds of other issues, 416 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 4: we are equipping parents with the tools that they need 417 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 4: to fight back, to push back, to go through the 418 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 4: proper channels to hold people accountable. Because as great as 419 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 4: it is and as wonderful as it is that we 420 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 4: have an administration in Washington, d C. That finally supports 421 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 4: and believes in the rights of parents across this country. 422 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 4: There's only so much that they can do on their own, 423 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 4: and so what these tools enable parents to do is 424 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 4: to push back at the local level and to also 425 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 4: let the federal government intervene on their behalf where there 426 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 4: are violations of the students' rights. 427 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: Quick break right back more with Gene Hamilton.

We 493 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 4: also now represent, in partnership with other lawyers, the two 494 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 4: parents in Loudon County, or the two students, two young 495 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 4: boys who were punished by the school district for videotaping 496 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 4: a girl going into their bathroom. 497 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you about this then, because I 498 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: think you know and I'm very aware of the case 499 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 1: that you're talking about. Yeah, because this is now mom's 500 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 1: confronted by a teacher for protesting boys in their daughter's bathroom, 501 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: and I mean that's like almost standard. Fair Let me 502 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: ask you about the Seattle case, where the school district 503 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: there all kids need to learn about gender and sexuality. 504 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: Parents are not not allowed there to opt out their 505 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: kids about opt out requests. Seattle Public school Schools works 506 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: to provide a wide range of educational opportunities that reflect 507 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: whose students are, help them build empathy for others, and 508 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: prepare them to be compassionate citizens of a diverse and 509 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: changing world. There is no option to quote opt students 510 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: out of learning about particular identities or groups of people. 511 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: This guidance is reinforced by the State Superintendent's office the 512 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: policies of other major urban dey districts, including states like California, 513 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 1: New York, et cetera, et cetera.

I'm sorry. 515 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: Doesn't that conflict with something called parental rights? 516 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 4: Yes, yes it does, Sean, And look, I suspect that 517 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 4: the Seattle Public school system is in They're in the 518 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 4: FA stage of the phrase, and the FO will come 519 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 4: soon because they are flatly wrong.

They can 522 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 4: opt out, and the Supreme Court affirmed the rights of 523 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 4: parents to be able to opt their kids out of 524 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 4: this type of radical ideology in classes just earlier this year, 525 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 4: and in case my mood versus Taylor, So, Seattle public schools, 526 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 4: they might think that they're doing something, they might think 527 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 4: that they're on solid ground, But with action from committed 528 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 4: parents and with the right legal support, we can fight back, 529 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,959 Speaker 4: and we will, and we can hold people like Seattle 530 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 4: Public schools accountable. 531 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 2: How can people get in touch with you because we 532 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 2: have to run. 533 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 4: Go to our website aflegal dot org and there's a 534 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 4: contact US formed everywhere and fill it out and we'll 535 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 4: be happy to hear from any parents. 536 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: All right, that's AFL dot org.
