Speaker 1: Welcome.
Speaker 2: It is Verdict with Senator Ted Kruz ben Ferguson with
Speaker 2: you as well, and we have two really big stories.
Speaker 2: One of them is huge and you may have seen
Speaker 2: the headline. It deals with two hundred and fifty thousand
Speaker 2: dollars a wire that originated in Beijing with a beneficiary
Speaker 2: address listed as Joe Biden's home. Now, we're gonna deal
Speaker 2: with this because obviously that is a bombshell report that
Speaker 2: has come out. There's also something else that's not being
Speaker 2: covered in the news, and that's why we're gonna lead
Speaker 2: with it. And it is about an Iranian influence operation
Speaker 2: specifically on the Biden administration. The same Iranians that just
Speaker 2: got six billion dollars freed up that they can quote
Speaker 2: as they said, we'll do whatever the hell we want
Speaker 2: with it. Senator, let's talk about this Iranian infiltration of
Speaker 2: the Biden administration and what this means and explain it
Speaker 2: all for everyone listening.
Speaker 3: Well, listen today. I think this podcast is a very
Speaker 3: important podcast and to underscore why think about the fact
Speaker 3: that we now know that a quarter million dollars was
Speaker 3: sent from the Chinese Communist to President Joe Biden's home
Speaker 3: and that's the number two story on this podcast that
Speaker 3: should make you pause. Now, why is it the number
Speaker 3: two story in this podcast, Because the number one story
Speaker 3: in this podcast is one of the most shocking stories
Speaker 3: I've seen ever. And it's a story that I'm going
Speaker 3: to tell you right now. The corporate media is not covering.
Speaker 3: You didn't watch it on CNN, you didn't watch it
Speaker 3: on MSNBC, you didn't watch it on ABCNBC or CBS.
Speaker 3: It is a story that broke today that three senior
Speaker 3: officials in the Biden administration were operatives for the Iranian government.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is stunning, and I want to walk
Speaker 3: through it because it's a very detailed expose about how
Speaker 3: senior officials in Joe Biden's Democrat administration were operatives. They
Speaker 3: were working for the Iranian government, they were in close
Speaker 3: coordination with the Ayatola, they were working on behalf of Iran,
Speaker 3: and they were setting US policy. And mind you, these
Speaker 3: are individuals who have security clearances, who were working on
Speaker 3: behalf of an Ayatola who chants death to America and
Speaker 3: death to Israel. And so I want to walk through
Speaker 3: this because again, you will not see this on the news.
Speaker 3: The News does not want to cover it, and so
Speaker 3: the story broke yesterday that three quote Iran experts who
Speaker 3: worked closely for Rob Mallee. Now, who is Rob Maali?
Speaker 3: Rob Malley was the Biden administration's quote special envoy to Iran.
Speaker 3: Now Rob Malay has been fired. He's been fired because
Speaker 3: the security clearance was revoked and he was thrown out
Speaker 3: of the Biden administry. We still don't know why, but
Speaker 3: it is presumably for a serious violation of law, because
Speaker 3: to be too pro Iran for the Biden administration. I
Speaker 3: don't even know what that means. Maybe that entails having
Speaker 3: the Ayatola tattooed three or more times on your body.
Speaker 3: Maybe it entails smuggling heroin and balloons that you ingest
Speaker 3: to Iran. I don't know, But all right, enough hyperbole,
Speaker 3: let's talk actual substance. So the report that came out
Speaker 3: yesterday is an investigation that was based on thousands of
Speaker 3: emails between Iranian diplomats and analysts, and it was published
Speaker 3: by Semaphore and Rob Mallee, working for the Biden administration,
Speaker 3: named three individuals to be senior officials. Number one. In
Speaker 3: February twenty twenty one, Rob Malley recruited Arion Taba Tabai,
Speaker 3: Sorry if I got the pronunciation wrong. She was a
Speaker 3: Middle East fellow at the German Marshall Fund of the
Speaker 3: United States the United States, and she came to the
Speaker 3: State Department to assist in negotiation for Iran. She served
Speaker 3: in that position for fifteen months. Mali also appointed or
Speaker 3: tried to appoint Ali Vaez, who was the Iran Project's
Speaker 3: director at the Crisis Group. But Vaez had a problem.
Speaker 3: According to two different sources, this is in public reports.
Speaker 3: Viez could not obtain the necessary security clearance and so
Speaker 3: his appointment was canceled. Nevertheless, Rob Malley maintained Vaez as
Speaker 3: a confident and according to two different people in this report,
Speaker 3: Viez drafted Mallei's tweets, so he's communicating on behalf of
Speaker 3: a senior Biden administration official. Now, third one is another
Speaker 3: Iran analyst named Dina s Fandiari who was hired by
Speaker 3: Mali at the ICG in twenty twenty one. And here's
Speaker 3: here's what the project from Iran was. Iran engaged in
Speaker 3: a focused influence effort. And I want to read you
Speaker 3: one of the leaked emails and this is this is
Speaker 3: within the Iranian government.
Speaker 1: Quote.
Speaker 3: As you already know, based on our previous discussions, a
Speaker 3: network of young second generation Iranian exports was initiated and
Speaker 3: we're looking forward to holding a meeting in Vienna in
Speaker 3: med Farvadian. Actually, this very idea of Iran experts initiatives
Speaker 3: was discussed between me and two of the young experts.
Speaker 3: We you and me met in the Prague conference i
Speaker 3: e Arian Taba Tabe and Dinas s Fan. We three
Speaker 3: agreed to be the core group of the IEI for
Speaker 3: the first meeting in Vienna. In order to establish this
Speaker 3: network in practice, we have decided to invite almost twenty
Speaker 3: scholars with established affiliation with the leading internationally well known
Speaker 3: think tanks and closes the preliminary list of invitees. Please
Speaker 3: let us know if you have any reservation on the
Speaker 3: names asap. By the way, as you promise, this initiative
Speaker 3: needs your financial as well as political support for the
Speaker 3: first meeting. We need to cover the the We need
Speaker 3: funds to cover the costs, including some tickets, hotel costs,
Speaker 3: et cetera. Look forward to hearing from you Ba Tajdidi
Speaker 3: eteram which I will confess my Irania is not good
Speaker 3: enough to know what the heck that means, but it
Speaker 3: is signed Sahed kleib Zadeh. And these were individuals. It
Speaker 3: was a core of young Iranian nationals who were in
Speaker 3: the United States who were working for Iran, and three
Speaker 3: of them went on to work for the Biden administration
Speaker 3: in senior positions. Now you look at the last two
Speaker 3: and a half years, Joe Biden has leaned into Iran
Speaker 3: in a level that has been insane. Iran is on
Speaker 3: the verge of acquiring nuclear weapons. This is a nation
Speaker 3: led by a note Iatola who chanced death to America
Speaker 3: and death to Israel, and he's about to acquire nuclear weapons.
Speaker 3: And this has been cheerleaded and pushed forward by officials
Speaker 3: in the Biden administration who were working for Iran, who
Speaker 3: were under the direction of Iran, who were literally operatives
Speaker 3: for the government of Iran. And this is now documented
Speaker 3: in multiple emails where they are emailing Iran saying what
Speaker 3: do I say? What do I do? I work for you?
Speaker 3: What do you want me to do? And I got
Speaker 3: to say, this is a lead.
Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, of course it is. O course
Speaker 1: it is because it is illegal.
Speaker 2: Is what you're saying, So, then how is no one
Speaker 2: being arrested for this?
Speaker 3: Well, the story just broke yesterday. Uh so we'll see
Speaker 3: how it plays out. But the first step is the
Speaker 3: media is just trying to bury it. The media doesn't
Speaker 3: want people to know about it because listen, I mean,
Speaker 3: I mean, is it comforting to anyone to know that
Speaker 3: the senior government officials and the Joe Biden administration dealing
Speaker 3: with Iran are operatives for the Iranian government? And Iran
Speaker 3: is led by a theocratic, homicidal zealot who hates America
Speaker 3: and these individuals were working for him. That is, it's stunning.
Speaker 3: And what is striking now is is this report has detailed.
Speaker 2: I want to make a career when you say that
Speaker 2: the media is not covering this. Right now, as we're
Speaker 2: recording the Center, I just put in the word I
Speaker 2: ran into Google and the top story comes up. It's
Speaker 2: from your website, Center Ted Cruz. It says Center Cruz
Speaker 2: calls for Halton's secret Iran negotiations after leak emails. Then
Speaker 2: the next one is a free Beacon, it says Pentagon
Speaker 2: mom on Biden appoint he's alleged membership in Iran, you know,
Speaker 2: in this group, and.
Speaker 1: Then after that CNN.
Speaker 2: So the first big news that has anything with Iran
Speaker 2: right now, they're reporting on it says three m agrees
Speaker 2: to pay almost ten million to settle an apparent Iranian
Speaker 2: sanctions violation. Not a single news story has been written
Speaker 2: about what we're breaking right now. When you put in
Speaker 2: the word Iran right now, the only thing that's even
Speaker 2: close is Al Jazeera says they had this. Why did
Speaker 2: Iran's foreign minister want to go to Washington as the
Speaker 2: US refuses the Iran's top diplomat request to visit DC.
Speaker 1: That's it. No one else is touching this right now.
Speaker 3: Well, and it's because the media can't defend this and listen,
Speaker 3: this screw out of what was called the echo chamber.
Speaker 3: So during the Obama administration, there were a group of journalists,
Speaker 3: a group of left wing think tank activists, and a
Speaker 3: group of zelots in the White House who created what
Speaker 3: they called the Iran echo chamber, where when Barack Obama
Speaker 3: was pushing for the Iran nuclear deal, everything he said
Speaker 3: would get amplified by the press and the think tank world,
Speaker 3: in the NGO world. And it was deliberate and this
Speaker 3: grew out of that. But what we now know is
Speaker 3: that this was directed by the Iranian government. And all right,
Speaker 3: so let me give you an example. Zareff, who was
Speaker 3: the Foreign Minister of Iran. On October second, twenty fourteen, Vaez,
Speaker 3: one of the three, wrote to Zarif regarding the discontent
Speaker 3: he head with an ICG report on Iran. Trying to
Speaker 3: clarify the situation, provided explanation. Here's a quote from from
Speaker 3: the email.
Speaker 1: Quote.
Speaker 3: As an Iranian, based on my national and patriotic duty,
Speaker 3: I have not hesitated to help you in any way,
Speaker 3: from proposing to your excellency and your an excellency are
Speaker 3: both capitalized a public campaign against the notion of nuclear
Speaker 3: breakout to assisting your team in preparing reports on the
Speaker 3: practical needs of Iran. And Vaez explained that the icg's
Speaker 3: reports were compiled through a process in a collaborative manner,
Speaker 3: which suggested that he didn't have final say in his publication. Likewise,
Speaker 3: Adnan tabat Abai wrote to Zarif on May nineteenth, twenty fourteen,
Speaker 3: after an II meeting with him in Vienna. Quote, as
Speaker 3: you will have noticed, we are all very much willing
Speaker 3: to dedicate our capacities and resources to joint working on
Speaker 3: the improvement of Iran's foreign relations. Iran is our country,
Speaker 3: so we too feel the need and responsibility to contribute
Speaker 3: our share. When I say we, I mean the very
Speaker 3: group you met now. I want you to stop and think.
Speaker 3: These are officials for the Biden administration who say Iran
Speaker 3: is our country, so we too feel the need and
Speaker 3: responsibility to contribute our share. They are literally working for
Speaker 3: a foreign nation who are as our enemy and who
Speaker 3: openly advocates death to America. And by the way, their bosses,
Speaker 3: the Iranian Ayatola and the Mullahs in Iran, are actively
Speaker 3: trying to murder the former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo,
Speaker 3: the former US National Security Advisor John Bolt, than the
Speaker 3: former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook. They're doing that
Speaker 3: today as we speak. I forced the Biden State Department
Speaker 3: to admit on the record today the State Department is
Speaker 3: spending two million dollars a month in security costs to
Speaker 3: defend the former US Secretary of State and other former
Speaker 3: US senior officials from Iran's efforts to murder them. And
Speaker 3: three officials of the Biden administration are working for the
Speaker 3: bastards who are trying to murder former senior US officials.
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about our friends that
Speaker 2: guests the Precious Medals real quick. If you're like me
Speaker 2: and you've wanted to buy gold for years, lots of
Speaker 2: commercials out there talk about buying gold, The question is
Speaker 2: who can you really trust? Well, I didn't want a
Speaker 2: bad investment. I wanted to make sure that I had
Speaker 2: someone I could work with, and that is when I found.
Speaker 1: A gust of Precious Medals.
Speaker 2: If you have an IRA or a four to one
Speaker 2: K and you you want to buy physical gold, eliminate
Speaker 2: fear and uncertainty for the process using the new Gold

Speaker 2: easy on you, and you'll get that integrity checklist right away.
Speaker 2: So text the word bend to six ' eight five
Speaker 2: I have nine to two or Augusta Precious Metals dot
Speaker 2: Com center. This news breaks, and the second question that
Speaker 2: I have for you is are these people we know
Speaker 2: who they are, Are they still able to access anything
Speaker 2: they want within the US government? Have they been arrested,
Speaker 2: have they been have their key cards turned off? Their
Speaker 2: access to their email the US government turned off? Or
Speaker 2: are they still able tonight, tomorrow, the next day, and
Speaker 2: definitely until someone decides to stop them. Do they still
Speaker 2: have access to all of the intel they have with
Speaker 2: its government?
Speaker 3: Astonishingly yes. So let's take for example, Ariann Tabatbai. She
Speaker 3: is currently the Department of Defenses, current chief of Staff
Speaker 3: for Special Operations. She has a security clearance. Today the
Speaker 3: Biden White House is not revoked her security clearance yet
Speaker 3: this story broke. They haven't done anything. Let me read
Speaker 3: you what she emailed Iranian leadership in twenty fourteen, so
Speaker 3: nearly a decade ago.
Speaker 1: Quote.
Speaker 3: Our goal was to show what is said in the West,
Speaker 3: that Iran does not need more than one thousand, five
Speaker 3: hundred centrifuges is wrong, and that Iran should not be
Speaker 3: expected to reduce the number of its centrifuges. That is
Speaker 3: right now the current chief of staff for Special Operations
Speaker 3: in the Biden Department Department of Defense. It is insane
Speaker 3: that she has a security clearance and given this evidence
Speaker 3: that you've got three individuals, on the face of it,
Speaker 3: it appears to be a violation of federal law that
Speaker 3: you cannot be working for a foreign government, much less
Speaker 3: an enemy of America while a senior national security official
Speaker 3: for the government. And look, the stories that are most
Speaker 3: damning are the stories that the corporate media utterly ignores.
Speaker 3: It's like when you and I discussed the border and
Speaker 3: what's happening at the border. There's a reason the corporate
Speaker 3: media doesn't discuss the Biden open borders because you can't
Speaker 3: defend it. There is no defense this story. There is
Speaker 3: no defense. Senior officials for the Biden Foreign policy and
Speaker 3: National security team have been working for the government of Iran, like,
Speaker 3: holy crap, there's no response. So their only hope is
Speaker 3: ignore it. And and that's why we do this podcast,
Speaker 3: is to focus on topics that will not be covered
Speaker 3: unless you engage, you speak out. And so this is
Speaker 3: an issue that this actually reminds me of when the
Speaker 3: Biden administration sent letters to the families of the nine
Speaker 3: to eleven victims and said they were not going to
Speaker 3: seek the death penalty for Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and other
Speaker 3: plotters of September eleventh, and we devoted an entire episode
Speaker 3: of this podcast talking about it, and and the listeners
Speaker 3: of a Verdict got engaged and spoke out, and within
Speaker 3: days the Biden administration reverse course. Here they are hoping
Speaker 3: for silence because there is no defense, there is no explanation. Well, yeah,
Speaker 3: the chief of staff of a major division at the
Speaker 3: Department Offense is working for the Ayatola who hates America,
Speaker 3: who is a radical zealot who chanced death to America.
Speaker 3: But you know, no, biggie, there's no defense there. And
Speaker 3: so they're hoping for silence. And I'm hoping that our
Speaker 3: listeners don't allow them to engage in silence.
Speaker 2: All right, I have to go back to this question now,
Speaker 2: because we just had this, you know, six billion dollars
Speaker 2: that went to Iran in this quote prisoner swap. So
Speaker 2: number one question is were any of these people involved
Speaker 2: in that swap and advocating for that the billions to
Speaker 2: be freed out to Iran? That that's my question number one.
Speaker 2: And number two, who would be making the decison vision
Speaker 2: tonight to suspend them pending at least an investigation so
Speaker 2: that they can't be taking in theory top secret information
Speaker 2: they have security clearance and deciding to just grab it
Speaker 2: all and give it to the Iranians.
Speaker 3: Look in terms of who was involved, presumably all three
Speaker 3: were involved in the decision. And look, when it comes
Speaker 3: to Iran policy, the Biden administration came in and their
Speaker 3: number one four policy objective was to re enter and
Speaker 3: a Ran nuclear.
Speaker 1: Agreement and to appease the.
Speaker 3: Iranian regime at a level that has never been seen.
Speaker 3: Rob Malley, he helped negotiate the original Obama Ran nuclear deal,
Speaker 3: which was catastrophic. It was a disaster. They brought him back.
Speaker 3: And by the way, this is a guy who's been suspended.
Speaker 3: His security clearance has been revoked. We don't know why.
Speaker 3: They won't tell us why, but he did something so
Speaker 3: stunningly bad even the Biden administration had to fire him.
Speaker 3: Holy cow. By the way, I've got to say, I'm
Speaker 3: really embarrassed to admit my alma mater, Prinston has brought
Speaker 3: Rob Malley in as a special lecturer and professor because
Speaker 3: you know, he's fired for violating national security in some
Speaker 3: undisclosed way, so we ought to have him teach at
Speaker 3: one of the premier universities in America. I mean, it
Speaker 3: really does illustrate all the problems we've got. But it
Speaker 3: was Rob Malley who hired all three of these people.
Speaker 3: And look you asked, is the fact that these three
Speaker 3: people were working for the Biden administration the reason why
Speaker 3: the Biden administration is appeased. Iran has sent billions of
Speaker 3: dollars to Iran, has refused to enforce oil sanctions on Iran,
Speaker 3: has allowed the Ietola to sell two billion barrel two
Speaker 3: million rather two million barrels of oil a day. Is
Speaker 3: that the reason?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: And no. They started wanting to give Iran everything they wanted,
Speaker 3: which is why they hired Iranian operatives to be senior officials.
Speaker 3: In some ways, these Iranian operatives were effective carrying out
Speaker 3: the mission of the political hacks in the Biden White
Speaker 3: House because their objective was appease Iran. And who better
Speaker 3: to implement a policy of appeasing Iran than people who
Speaker 3: are literally working for the Iranian government.
Speaker 2: All right, let me ask you what words are appropriate
Speaker 2: in this scenario? Is this spying? Are these people's spies?
Speaker 2: Is this espionage? And the fact that no one in
Speaker 2: the Biden administration is stopping them from doing this, I
Speaker 2: guess is their way of downplaying saying no, no, no, it's
Speaker 2: not that at all. They're just working on great foreign
Speaker 2: relations with a country that chance death to America. But
Speaker 2: in your mind center, is this espionage? Is a spying?
Speaker 3: Look, almost any word you could apply to this is appropriate.
Speaker 3: These are operatives who are working for the Iranian government.
Speaker 3: We now have email proof, according to these press reports.
Speaker 3: And look, these emails need to be confirmed, but we've
Speaker 3: got now multiple press reports that are detailing them that
Speaker 3: they were regularly emailing the Iranian government and saying what
Speaker 3: should we do? What do you want us to do?
Speaker 3: They were seeking direction, they were seeking instructions. We have
Speaker 3: emails from the Iranian government saying they set up this
Speaker 3: network with the purpose of influencing US government policy. And
Speaker 3: so whether they were spies or simply operatives working for Iran,
Speaker 3: it's functionally the same thing they were. As the emails
Speaker 3: I read, they said, our loyalties are to Iran. You
Speaker 3: know what, if your loyalties are to Iran or to
Speaker 3: communist China, or to Russia or North Korea, or to Venezuela,
Speaker 3: you shouldn't be in a senior national security position for
Speaker 3: the United States of America. And there's a very real
Speaker 3: question that I suspect is going to be investigated in
Speaker 3: the days to come forward whether it was a violation
Speaker 3: of criminal law law. There's a law Pharaoh that requires
Speaker 3: an agent of a foreign government to register if they're
Speaker 3: working on behalf of a foreign government. That raises an
Speaker 3: obvious question, were the in violation of that law? But
Speaker 3: the fact that they were given security clearance is I
Speaker 3: got to tell you. Look listen. As an ordinary matter,
Speaker 3: I mean, they ask you what contacts have you had
Speaker 3: with the foreign government. Generally, if you said boo to
Speaker 3: a foreign government that is an enemy of America, you
Speaker 3: can't get a security clearance in this case, these three individuals,
Speaker 3: their involvements was deep and pervasive, and they were part
Speaker 3: of a government program launched by the Ayahtola specifically to
Speaker 3: influence and undermine American policy and the Biden administration. They're
Speaker 3: not defending this. You can't defend this on the merits.
Speaker 3: They are counting on silence, because can you imagine Joe
Speaker 3: Biden if any reporter had to merity to ask, how
Speaker 3: do you feel about senior national security officials in your
Speaker 3: administration working for the Ayatola in Iran? And do you
Speaker 3: think it's a grave national security violation? He would get
Speaker 3: confused and try to tie his shoe. He couldn't answer
Speaker 3: that question, and so they're counting on the press to
Speaker 3: cover up for.
Speaker 2: I want to tell you about Patriot Mobile. For ten years,
Speaker 2: Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
Speaker 2: And when I say only trust me, they're the only
Speaker 2: one now. The team there have been great supporters not
Speaker 2: only of shows just like this one, but they are
Speaker 2: proud to partner with conservative organizations to grow the conservative base.
Speaker 2: When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're sending a message
Speaker 2: that you support free speech, religious freedom, the sanctity of life,
Speaker 2: the Second Amendment, as well as our military, our veterans,
Speaker 2: and our first responder heroes. They have one hundred percent
Speaker 2: US based customer service team which makes switching easy. You
Speaker 2: can keep your same cell phone number you have now,
Speaker 2: you can keep your same phone or upgrade now when
Speaker 2: you pay your bill, this is when the magic happens.
Speaker 2: They take a percentage of your bill each and every
Speaker 2: month and give it back to conservative causes that you
Speaker 2: help choose to support in these categories that I just mentioned.
Speaker 2: And you may not realize it, but many of the
Speaker 2: big mobile companies actually give huge donations to democrats as
Speaker 2: well as the Plan Parenthood. So stop giving your mind
Speaker 2: to woke corporations that are fighting against your values and
Speaker 2: switch to Patriot Mobile. Use the promo code Verdict. You'll
Speaker 2: get free activation and the best deals of the year.
Speaker 2: Call them nine to seven to two Patriot. That's nine
Speaker 2: to seven to two Patriot or online at Patriotmobile dot
Speaker 2: com slash verdict that's Patriot Mobile dot com slash verdict.
Speaker 2: I'll say this real quick, center on this on this
Speaker 2: breaking news that we just broke. Everyone listening, please share
Speaker 2: this podcasts everywhere you can on social media. It had
Speaker 2: a huge difference in the impact that we had on
Speaker 2: that story that dealt with the Pentagon and Khali Sheik
Speaker 2: Muhammad and that deal that was done.
Speaker 1: We were able to stop that.
Speaker 2: That was because of you guys getting involved in the work.
Speaker 2: We need to make sure that this story, the same
Speaker 2: thing happens. So send this podcast to everyone you know,
Speaker 2: but post it on all of your social media accounts
Speaker 2: so that we can get more people to hear about this.
Speaker 2: It's an important national security story and we need to
Speaker 2: force the media to do their damn job here. So again,
Speaker 2: post this wherever you can. Now onto this other topic
Speaker 2: center that is just as shocking is the last one.
Speaker 2: There is new reporting out that Hunter Biden received wired
Speaker 2: transfers for a quarter of a million dollars originating in
Speaker 2: Beijing for more than more than two hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: from Chinese business partners during the summer of two thousand
Speaker 2: and nineteen. These wires were listed that were listed had
Speaker 2: the home address of the President of the United States
Speaker 2: of America, Joe Biden, as the beneficiary address for the
Speaker 2: funds that were being transferred. This is a direct link
Speaker 2: from money from Beijing now to the President of the
Speaker 2: United States of America in the summ of at least
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty thousand and counting.
Speaker 3: Well, look, that's exactly right. Let me walk you through
Speaker 3: a little bit of this timeline. An individual named Jonathan
Speaker 3: Lee and Hunter Biden developed a business relationship while Joe
Speaker 3: Biden was vice president. On July twenty sixth, twenty nineteen,
Speaker 3: Hunter Biden received a ten thousand dollars wire from Wang Jin.
Speaker 3: On October second, twenty nineteen, Hunter Biden received a two
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty thousand dollars wire from Jonathan Lee and
Speaker 3: Tan Ling. Both wires originated in Beijing and listed as
Speaker 3: the beneficiary address Joe Biden's Wilmington, Delaware home. Nearly three
Speaker 3: months later, on October thirteenth, twenty nineteen, Hunter Biden's attorney
Speaker 3: guy named George Mesiris, stated that Hunter Biden received no
Speaker 3: money from BHR and did not disclose any payments from
Speaker 3: Jonathan Lee. I mean, it's easy to forget quarter million dollars.
Speaker 3: Everyone loses that. Beyond that, evidence shows that Joe Biden
Speaker 3: developed a familiar relationship with Jonathan Lee during his vice
Speaker 3: presidency and prior to these payments to Hunter Biden. Devin Archer,
Speaker 3: who was a business associate of the Bidens, described how
Speaker 3: Joe Biden, not Hunter, Joe Daddy, met with Jonathan Lee
Speaker 3: in Beijing, China, had a phone call with him, and
Speaker 3: later wrote college recommendation letters for his children. So understand
Speaker 3: the guy who's wiring a quarter million dollars to Hunter
Speaker 3: Biden to Joe Biden's home address, Joe Biden wrote college
Speaker 3: recommendation letters for his kids, and in fact, in December
Speaker 3: twenty thirteen, during a vice presidential trip to Beijing, reports
Speaker 3: indicate that quote Hunter, shortly after arriving in Beijing on
Speaker 3: December fourth, help arranged for Lee to shake hands with
Speaker 3: his father in the lobby of the American delegation's hotel.
Speaker 3: And mind you, all of this is happening, this wire
Speaker 3: is happening simultaneously to Joe Biden announcing his campaign for
Speaker 3: president of the United States. But nevertheless, on October twenty second,
Speaker 3: twenty twenty, here's what Joe Biden said, quote, my son
Speaker 3: has not made money in terms of thing about what
Speaker 3: are you talking about China? The only guy who made
Speaker 3: money in China is Trump. So what he said, his
Speaker 3: Sun is not made money. From China. It was a
Speaker 3: flat out lie. Not only had he made money, he'd
Speaker 3: made a quarter million dollars from a guy Joe Biden
Speaker 3: had met, from a guy who Joe Biden had written
Speaker 3: recommendation letters for his kids, and that quarter million dollars
Speaker 3: was wired to Joe Biden's home address.
Speaker 2: I still am taken aback, and rarely does this happen
Speaker 2: center at just the the.
Speaker 1: And I don't think it's in commonant.
Speaker 2: It's just the brazenness of the crimes that were committed
Speaker 2: by the Bidens. They didn't get And this is twenty nineteen,
Speaker 2: this is not that long ago.
Speaker 3: He's running for president, right.
Speaker 2: He's running for president of the United States of America.
Speaker 2: And they're wiring these funds from Beijing to the home
Speaker 2: address of the President of the United States and now
Speaker 2: presidented States America while he's trying to become the president.
Speaker 1: It's America.
Speaker 2: It's almost like they're like, hey, get the money in here, quick,
Speaker 2: move it through quickly.
Speaker 1: We got to get this.
Speaker 2: We gotta get this money in here fast before he
Speaker 2: becomes the president. And so send it on where do
Speaker 2: you want me to send We're not eve gonna funnel
Speaker 2: the money this time. We're not even gonna put it
Speaker 2: in the LLCs and move the bank accounts around. Just
Speaker 2: send it directly the home address of the president, all right.
Speaker 3: And this is an example where the corporate media will
Speaker 3: be utterly compliant. So the only one who will even
Speaker 3: bother to ask a question of Joe Biden at a
Speaker 3: press conference or or of Kareem John Pierre will be
Speaker 3: Fox because the rest of the corporate media will roll
Speaker 3: over and be compliant. But here's a basic question, mister president,
Speaker 3: did you ever meet Jonathan Lee's kids?
Speaker 1: How about that?
Speaker 3: Let's start with that. You wrote recommendation letters for him.
Speaker 3: Do you ever meet him? You know anything about him?
Speaker 3: And if the answers no, well why the hell did
Speaker 3: you write recommendations letters for them? What did Jonathan Lee
Speaker 3: do to get you? You were the vice president of
Speaker 3: the United States to write a recommendation letter for his kids?
Speaker 3: If you ever met the kids. I don't know if
Speaker 3: he met him, but I would be shocked if he did.
Speaker 3: If you never met the kids, So you're willing to
Speaker 3: write a recommendation letter for someone you never met, presumably
Speaker 3: you owe something to Daddy. If you're writing a recommendation
Speaker 3: letter to the kids. So the question is what do
Speaker 3: you owe, what did daddy do? And does it have
Speaker 3: anything to do with the fact that daddy sent a
Speaker 3: quarter million dollars wired it to your son at your
Speaker 3: home address while you were running for president of the
Speaker 3: United States. Remember the Democrat talking point and the corporate
Speaker 3: media talking point is yeah, Hunter's corrupt. He let's throw
Speaker 3: him overboard. We've given up on Hunter. But Joe had
Speaker 3: nothing to do with it. Well, you know what, Hunter
Speaker 3: didn't write recommendations letters for the kids of Jonathan Lee.
Speaker 3: Joe did. So what did Joe get in exchange for
Speaker 3: a recommendation letter? By the way, you and I are
Speaker 3: both parents, Do either of us have recommendation letters from
Speaker 3: the Vice President of the United States for our kids? Like,
Speaker 3: that's pretty damn serious, And it's remarkable the media they
Speaker 3: will not even ask these questions. They do not care.
Speaker 1: Well, it's not just that you.
Speaker 2: I'm sure could ask ten hundred times more than I
Speaker 2: do for recommendations for different things. And the more that
Speaker 2: you build something, the more cautious and careful you are,
Speaker 2: because you don't want to give your name to somebody
Speaker 2: that could come back to haunt you. One day when
Speaker 2: a press person like, hey, Senator Cruz, did you actually
Speaker 2: write over a letter of recommendation for someone that you
Speaker 2: didn't know, and now they've been arrested for drugs or
Speaker 2: for this crime or that or embezzlement, you protect your
Speaker 2: good name, unless, sure, Joe Biden, where it seems to
Speaker 2: be that you can just buy a letter of recommendation
Speaker 2: from the Vice president if the dollar amount is enough
Speaker 2: to your family.
Speaker 3: So look, I'm fifty two years old. I've been in
Speaker 3: the Senate eleven years. My guess is maybe I've written
Speaker 3: in the whole course of my life, let's say one
Speaker 3: hundred recommendation letters. That's probably high, but I'm gonna overestimate it.
Speaker 3: Those hundred have been almost exclusively people who are either
Speaker 3: good personal friends of mine or people have worked for me.
Speaker 3: If so someone was a staff assistant, if someone was
Speaker 3: an employee in the office and they worked and they
Speaker 3: did a good job, I'll draft a letter of recommendation,
Speaker 3: and it'll vary if I know them well. Some letters
Speaker 3: are recommendation. I lean in closely because if I know
Speaker 3: them well and I work with them, I'll say something
Speaker 3: nicely about them. If they were a good kid, and
Speaker 3: they worked in the office and they could do good work.
Speaker 3: I'll write a more generic letter and I'll often have
Speaker 3: staff draft it and try to reflect you know. You know,
Speaker 3: Young Ben did a nice job on a memo on
Speaker 3: national security and he pointed out maybe we should not
Speaker 3: have Iranian agents working for the federal government, and I
Speaker 3: agreed with that. That was nicely done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, mind you.
Speaker 3: That means Young Ben couldn't get hired in the Biden administration.
Speaker 3: But in a sane world, old Young Ben had some
Speaker 3: wisdom that was impressive, and so you should hire him
Speaker 3: at old miss because he also has a wicked serve
Speaker 3: and knows how to play tennis. Like that's a letter
Speaker 3: I might write, But I can tell you right now,
Speaker 3: I have never written a letter of recommendation for a
Speaker 3: Chinese national, and I'm sure as hell haven't written a
Speaker 3: letter recommendation for the children of a Chinese national I've
Speaker 3: never met. And I'm sure as hell as hell, as
Speaker 3: hell as hell have never written a letter recommendation for
Speaker 3: the children of a Chinese matt national who I've never
Speaker 3: met the children, and that the dad has given a
Speaker 3: quarter million dollars to my son and sent it to
Speaker 3: my home address, Like, holy crap, Yeah, this is not
Speaker 3: like there's sort of a realm of reasonableness. And look,
Speaker 3: sometimes you have someone who was an intern and shook
Speaker 3: your hand and you say, young Ben is a nice
Speaker 3: young man, and it's kind of a courtesy, and you
Speaker 3: don't really know. Young Ben may not be a nice
Speaker 3: young man. He may be a total jerk, but you're
Speaker 3: trying to be nice, and so you write a letter
Speaker 3: because young men seem fine. This is qualitatively different. I
Speaker 3: don't know anyone in politics who's ever done this like
Speaker 3: what Joe Biden is doing. Like people listening might think, oh,
Speaker 3: I don't know the political world. This is commonplace. No, no,
Speaker 3: it's not. People don't do this like a quarter million dollars.
Speaker 3: You don't get sent to you. You don't get sent
Speaker 3: to you from Chinese nationals. You don't get sent to
Speaker 3: you from Chinese nationals while you're running for president. Don't
Speaker 3: get sent to you from Chinese nationals in exchange for
Speaker 3: who the hell knows what I mean this is. And
Speaker 3: it's worth underscoring this is not Hunter. This is Joe, Joe, Joe.
Speaker 3: This money was wired to Joe's home address.
Speaker 1: Yeah, great point there. Let me tell you about our
Speaker 1: friends ever in talk.
Speaker 2: If you're a guy and you feel like that you
Speaker 2: lost in your strength and your vitality, and weakness and
Speaker 2: complacency are setting in. Maybe you just feel fatigued and
Speaker 2: you don't want to go work out. Maybe you don't
Speaker 2: even like playing sports anymore, and that's something you love
Speaker 2: to do. Maybe you just feel like you're just getting
Speaker 2: weak and complacent and sitting around too much.
Speaker 1: Well, guess what, you're not alone, men.
Speaker 2: Testostrum levels are off a cliff historically at an all
Speaker 2: time low. Thankfully, the patriots at Chalk are helping real
Speaker 2: America men just like you. Boost your testosterum levels up

Speaker 1: And finally sentater.
Speaker 2: It's interesting because as we find out about this money
Speaker 2: that has come in directly from Beijing, you have the
Speaker 2: first impeachment inquiry hearing that's going to take place in
Speaker 2: Washington this week. James Comer seems to have a very
Speaker 2: interesting strategy. He announces his three key witnesses for the
Speaker 2: first impeachment inquiry hearing. They announced this and they said
Speaker 2: that these three witnesses that are going to testify before
Speaker 2: the first impeachment inquiry. They include a Professor Jonathan Turley
Speaker 2: of George Washington University Law School, Ellen O'Connor, former Assistant
Speaker 2: Attorney General of the United States Department of Justice Tax Division,
Speaker 2: and Bruce Devinsky of Davinski Consulting. A forensic accounting expert,
Speaker 2: Turley is nationally recognized as a legal scholar who has
Speaker 2: published work in areas ranging from constitution law to legal theory.
Speaker 2: O'Connor supervised the DOJ's litigation of civil, criminal trial and
Speaker 2: appellate tax cases. And Davinski accumulated more than forty years
Speaker 2: of financial investigative and dispute consulting experience, as well as
Speaker 2: served as an expert witness more than one hundred times,
Speaker 2: testifying in more than eighty trials, including trials involving criminal
Speaker 2: and civil financial fraud. So it seems to me that
Speaker 2: these witnesses seem to be about really building a case
Speaker 2: around the financial transactions around Joe Biden and his role
Speaker 2: in the family business. I'm sure if these witnesses get
Speaker 2: to see things like a quarter of a million dollars
Speaker 2: coming from Beijing, that's going to raise some red flags
Speaker 2: in their area of expertise.
Speaker 3: Look unquestionably, and I will say James Comer is, I
Speaker 3: think doing an excellent job, as is Jim Jordan building
Speaker 3: up the case systematically and laying out the evidence. Of
Speaker 3: the three witnesses. I know two of them personally. I
Speaker 3: know Turley and I know O'Connor personally. They're both serious professionals.
Speaker 3: Turley is a very well respected constitutional law professor. He's
Speaker 3: not a Republican, he's a Democrat, but he's an honest
Speaker 3: constitutional law scholar, and so he ends up being characterizes
Speaker 3: more of a Republican because he actually speaks out against
Speaker 3: the corruption we're seeing in the Biden administration. He has
Speaker 3: the courage to do so. Turley is kind of like
Speaker 3: Alan Dershowitz, who is another Democrat, Alan whom I know
Speaker 3: very well. He is my criminal law professor in law school.
Speaker 3: Alan is a self described liberal Democrat. He does not
Speaker 3: like Donald Trump. He's voted against Donald Trump every time,
Speaker 3: but he believes in constitutional law. Turley has been really courageous.
Speaker 3: Aileen O'Connor is a very serious federal DOJ official taxificiall.
Speaker 3: I expect she will testify about how bizarre it is
Speaker 3: how the Biden DOJ has investigated these crimes, and in particular,
Speaker 3: how they've obstructed justice, how they've blocked an investigation, how
Speaker 3: anyone not named Hunter Biden would face very different investigation
Speaker 3: and prosecution. If his name was Hunter Smith and you
Speaker 3: engaged in a rampant pattern of criminality, the DOJ would
Speaker 3: not be protecting you, and would not especially be protecting
Speaker 3: your father, who was the locus of the criminality. The
Speaker 3: third individual I don't know, but he's described as a
Speaker 3: forensic accountant, and I assume he's going to testify about
Speaker 3: things like what it means to get nearly two hundred
Speaker 3: suspicious activity reports on your banking records, what it means
Speaker 3: to have over twenty shell companies that make no products,
Speaker 3: that have no employees, that don't do anything other than
Speaker 3: exist to launder money and to hide the transaction of money.
Speaker 3: And so look, I fully expect Democrats to ignore what
Speaker 3: these witnesses have to say, and the corporate media to
Speaker 3: cover it up and try to hide it. But we
Speaker 3: are seeing drip drip drip every day. People are realizing
Speaker 3: the evidence of corruption of the Biden family. And we're
Speaker 3: not just talking about Hunter. Hunter is a troubled soul.
Speaker 3: But if Hunter were the only issue, we wouldn't be
Speaker 3: talking about this. This is about the corruption of Joe Biden,
Speaker 3: the current president of the United States. And understand this
Speaker 3: as we wrap up. The current president of the United
Speaker 3: States had a quarter million dollars wired to his house
Speaker 3: from communist China while he was running for president of
Speaker 3: the United States. Yes, it was sent to his son,
Speaker 3: but sent from a guy who Joe Biden himself wrote
Speaker 3: recommendation letters for his kids. The family business. Let me
Speaker 3: actually wrap with this for every Democrat, for every dishonest
Speaker 3: corporate media shill who's saying Hunter was corrupt, but not Joe.
Speaker 3: One question you need to ask, over and over again.
Speaker 3: We're going to revisit this in a later podcast. What
Speaker 3: was Hunter Biden selling? He has no skills, he doesn't
Speaker 3: have goods or services, He cannot do anything. When's the
Speaker 3: last time you paid millions of dollars to a crackhead?
Speaker 3: What function, what role? What service was he providing? The
Speaker 3: only thing Hunter was able to sell is favors from Daddy,
Speaker 3: and so the argument that Daddy had nothing to do
Speaker 3: with it is on its face ludicrous.
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep covering this issue also that the money
Speaker 2: and what it was going on with Iran as well,
Speaker 2: and if there is fallout, I'll say it again, Please
Speaker 2: make sure you help us get this story out there,
Speaker 2: especially on a RAN international security. Put this everywhere on
Speaker 2: social media. You can hit that little forward an arrow
Speaker 2: and you can post it on your social media on
Speaker 2: Twitter or x as they call it now, Facebook, Instagram,
Speaker 2: wherever you can and make sure other people hear this.
