Yeah, we're watching it on the 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: other side of the estate from from the fourth District 15 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: of Ohio, which I get the privilege of representing. But 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: I spoke of this earlier this morning with Congressman Bill Johnson, 17 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: a colleague of ours, and asked him about it. Of course, 18 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: he's he's monitoring. He feels uh like there's you know, 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: they're they're they're beginning to get some answers here. And 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: I know he's watching it. Closely. But yeah, this is 21 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: it sure seems serious for goodness sake, um, and I 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: think that's how it should be treated. I don't. I 23 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: don't know if that's how the Transportation Secretary is treating it. 24 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: But I know the folks I've talked to today, they're 25 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: they're treating it very seriously, and we hope it's going 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: to be safe for the folks who live in that 27 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: part of our state. Well pothole pete there. Transportation secretary 28 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: was nowhere to be found in the middle of this 29 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: h he's telling jokes yesterday about balloons and jokes about 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: there's too many white construction workers. No, I don't, I 31 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: don't get that. I mean, this is a serious situation 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: for this community. It's right on the Pennsylvania Ohio line. 33 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: I think it's like a mile or two. It's by 34 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: our great state, and obviously it's serious for the folks 35 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: who live there. My understanding is there have been loss 36 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: of some animals have lost their lives, and obviously we're 37 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: concerned about more concerned of course about the impact they 38 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: could have on when people in breathing and impacts they 39 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: could have on human show. Look, we got to take 40 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: this seriously and get the answers in and see see 41 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: what happened to him. Let's get to some of the 42 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: other issues of the day. I'm having a hard time 43 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: reconciling the fact that we've had we had an eight 44 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: day period in which four objects were fired from the sky. 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: One we know to be a Chinese spy balloon that 46 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: was allowed to fly over American airspace in Alaska, down 47 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 1: the coast of the West coast of Canada into Idaho, 48 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: over our missile silos, nuclear missile sites CBM sites in Montana, 49 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: down to Kansas, Missouri, up to Kentucky, out to the Carolinas, 50 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: and then finally shoot it down. And we have no 51 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 1: information on anything regarding the other three objects that are 52 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: military shot down, none whatsoever. We're just told that it's 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: it's safe and it's not bad, and it's likely that 54 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: the objects were likely benign according to John Kirby just 55 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: a little while ago, and Biden officials claiming that these 56 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: last three didn't belong to China. Well, where's that information 57 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: coming from? Yeah, I don't know. Just just give us 58 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: the facts, give us the truth. But I do think 59 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,399 Speaker 1: it's interesting. So the one that we knew was from China. Oh, 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: it gets to fly clear across the continent in the 61 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: United States. We know it's it's surveiling us, we know 62 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: it's a test. We know it's trying to embarrass us. 63 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: It gets to go clear across the country, and then 64 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: you shoot it down, and then the three we don't 65 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: know about, you shoot them down right away, Or at 66 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: least that's what it appears. We got a unclassified briefing 67 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: today from folks um the Congress did, And I don't 68 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: know if I knew much more after the briefing than 69 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: I knew before. They didn't really tell us anything. So 70 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: m I always say, you know, we're we're big boys 71 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: and girls. We're Americans. Our government is supposed to be 72 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: up the people, by the people, for the people, So 73 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: let weave up. People know what the heck is going on. 74 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: That's that's how it's supposed to operate in our great country. 75 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: But we don't seem to be getting many answers from 76 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: these folks. Kirby, the last three objects the Biden shot 77 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: down ordered shot down. We're most likely belign? What is 78 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: most likely belign? Me? How does he know it's most 79 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: likely belign? What do the I mean? That's a guess 80 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: on his part what to put americans minds at ease. 81 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: I don't need my mind put at ease. I want 82 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: to know what it was. Yeah, so this again, the 83 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: things that were benign, you shoot down the thing that 84 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: was spying on us, You let black clear across the country. Now, 85 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: maybe there's a valid reason for that, but if so, 86 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: tell us again, this is America, this is the United 87 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: States of America. We have a constitution. It's supposed to 88 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: be we the people are supposed to know. So fill 89 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: us in for goodness stake to tell the representatives, the 90 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: folks who represent folks in Congress, so that we can 91 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: tell the people. We get the privilege of serving, but 92 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: don't keep us in the dark. The more I think 93 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: about this, it just drives me nuts because this is 94 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: how all too often government, the unaccounted people who never 95 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: put their name on the ballot, they get to be 96 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: in the know, but we the people don't. That is 97 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: not how this country is supposed to operated. It ticks 98 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: me off, and I know it ticks off the folks 99 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: that I get to represent. It ticks me off too. 100 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: So call me as one of the folks you represent, 101 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: because I don't really have representation. You may not know this. 102 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: George Santos happens to be my congressman. Lucky me. But 103 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 1: on a serious note, So you're head of the House 104 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee, and you've been trying to get to the 105 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: bottom of really serious charges and questions and a reality 106 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: that I believe that has emerged in this country which 107 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: I didn't think was possible, and that is that what 108 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: should be the world's premier law enforcement agency, the FBI, 109 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: has been politicized. You have already had testimony from whistleblowers, 110 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: there's testimony from dozens more is my understanding, and you 111 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: have been seeking information as it relates to you know 112 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: whether or not the DOJ's weaponize the FBI is politicized, 113 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: And my understanding is Director Ray and a turn General 114 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: Garland are refusing to turn over information pertinent to your 115 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: oversight investigation. What's the latest. Yeah, they keep dragging the 116 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: feed try and not let us have access the information 117 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: that we think we should, whether it's the school boards 118 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: this year or any other issue we've deposed. We've had 119 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: two transcribed interviews with two FBI agents who come to 120 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: us as whistleblowers. Both have been very informative. The third 121 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: is tomorrow, so we will continue to interview these these 122 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: brave men and women who worked in the FBI who 123 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: have now come forward, the one we interviewed last week. 124 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: The retaliation that this individual received is just unbelievable, the 125 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: very first one who came to us. So, Sean, you 126 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: had you had broke this some of this news on 127 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: your on your show last week, because this guy's went 128 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: public to John Solomon. But it was interesting. He worked 129 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: in the Boston Field office. He said he got a 130 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: call from the Washington Field office where they say, hey, 131 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: there's there were two busloads of people who came down 132 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: for the January sixth rally, and two of those individuals 133 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: who organize it were on you know, we have them 134 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: pictures of them in the capital. We want you to 135 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: open an investigation the Boston Field office. That's fine, we'll 136 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,239 Speaker 1: do that. But then there were one hundred and thirty 137 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: eight others who were on that bus and the Washington 138 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: Field office said we want you to open an investigation 139 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: to those people. And the Boston Field office said, well, okay, 140 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: but why and this is what we just want you 141 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: to and they get what you got evidence of them 142 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: being the Capital of them doing anything wrong, and they 143 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: said no, we don't have evidence of the open investigation, 144 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: and to their credit and Boston they said no, we're 145 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: not going to do that. That is first of them 146 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: the protected activity. You can go to a rally in 147 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: this country and speak up in a political fashion and 148 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: you don't get investigated for doing so. But that's what 149 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: the Washington Field Office was trying to do, according to 150 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: this whistleblower who under oath gave us that information. So 151 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: again just shows you the mindset of the folks in 152 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: DC as compared to the good agents across this country 153 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: who I know you support, who's doing the lord's work 154 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: out there. That is the difference, and that's what we're 155 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: trying to uncover and then have legislation to change that 156 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. So your tandem investigations, yours is into 157 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: the FBI and the DOJ and whether or not we 158 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: have a dual justice system and whether or not the 159 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: system is politicized. I don't have any doubt that that's 160 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: the case. Jim Comer in the Oversight Committee, he too 161 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: has been having difficulty apparently hunter Biden's attorneys or refusing 162 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: to hand over information that is needed for their investigation 163 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: into the financial dealings of Hunter Biden with foreign entities 164 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: and whether or not the President himself Joe Biden lied 165 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: to the American people when he said he'd never had 166 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: any discussions with the American people. I'm sorry with Hunter 167 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: Biden about these foreign business deals. I think the American 168 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: people have a right to know. Of course they do. 169 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: But I tell you who is changing their tune, and 170 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: that's mister Clapper, because suddenly he's saying, now, well, no, no, 171 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: I didn't really mean when we said this has all 172 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: the year marks of a Russian information operation, he's now saying, well, 173 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: I said it could be. I didn't say for sure. 174 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: He's changing his tune, which is amazing because that's sure 175 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: certainly wasn't what he was saying in October of twenty twenty, 176 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: and certainly wasn't what the mainstream press was reporting in 177 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: October of twenty twenty. But I see that story out 178 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,839 Speaker 1: today in Fox News where there where he suddenly like, oh, 179 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: I don't know for sure it could have been. It 180 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: could have been a Russian information operation and not just 181 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: really a legitimate laptop. So it's I think I find 182 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: that interesting how he's changing his story. But yeah, mister 183 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: Kohmer's working on getting to the bottom of all that information. 184 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: He wants a suspicious activity reports that supposed there are 185 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty of them. That's the Treasury Department him. 186 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: I'd like to understand, especially in light of the administrations 187 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: handling of Russia and China right now. The Administration put 188 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: out a warning yesterday, or State Department put out a 189 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: warning telling every American in Russia to leave immediately, as 190 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: they believe with the escalation and conflict with the Ukraine 191 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: that Americans potentially could be subject to kind of like 192 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: the Brittany Grinder treatment, and that is, you know, false arrest, 193 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: imprisonment charges, long stays in prison, etc. So that's happening, 194 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: while simultaneously, this Chinese incident with the balloons is happening. 195 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: China similarly has sent a lot of their their ships 196 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: and and a lot of the military gear into the 197 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: Taiwan Straits. Are we watching potentially now the imminent invasion 198 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: of Taiwan by China? Boy, I hope not, Sean, I 199 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: hope not. And we've talked about this before. I really 200 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: think so much of this And you hate to say 201 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: this because it's about our great country and it's about 202 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: the presidency. But I think the real concern here is 203 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: when you have a president who projects weakness, bad guys 204 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: around the planet do bad things, and that's what That's 205 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: what concerns me because there is such a contrast between 206 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: the strength and the leadership we had with President Trump 207 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: and frankly, what we have now in the White House. 208 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: And I see it. And I know I've shared this before, 209 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: but I never forget when tech former Secretary of State 210 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: Mike Pompey was asked right after the Russians went in Ukraine. 211 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: He was asked the question. He was doing an interview 212 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: and they said, mister secretary, would this have happened under 213 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: President Trump? And Secretary Pompeo gave the best answer. He said, 214 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: the short answer is, I don't know, but I do 215 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: know this, it didn't happen under President Trump. And I 216 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: think that speaks volumes and that, frankly, is the problem 217 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: we have today. And I think that the real concerns 218 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: that Americans see. So let's hope that changes in that 219 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: President Biden begins showing the strength that you're supposed to 220 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 1: show as commander in chief versus what we've seen of late, 221 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: and they knew everything about Hunter Biden. Now, with all 222 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: of the money that is being reported in financial dealings 223 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: with Hunter and China and Russia, we're talking about millions 224 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: in one case, over a billion dollars in business deals 225 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: with China are number one geopolitical foe. And we know 226 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden, in spite of what he said, in 227 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: fact did have conversations with Hunter and others about these 228 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: foreign business dealings. Is it possible that the president himself 229 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: is compromised in terms of you know, how much money 230 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: did the Biden family do in business deals with China 231 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: and Russia? Don't we need to know that? And if so, 232 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: could that be clouding the president's ability to deal from 233 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: a position in a strength, especially if they have compromising 234 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,719 Speaker 1: Mattia Eels on Hunter Biden, boy, I hope not, and 235 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: you'd like to think that wouldn't happen in our great country. 236 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, this is why Chairman 237 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: Comer wants those Suspicious Activity reports. Wants to know about 238 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: these banking transactions. I mean, the name suggests everything. The 239 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: Treasury compiles these reports because it's suspicious. There's there's strange 240 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: things happening in the transfer of money from various accounts, 241 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: and so he wants access to that to see to 242 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: get an answer to the question you just posed. Well, well, 243 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: then I have a follow up. Then, why didn't the 244 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: FBI had Hunter Biden's laptop since December of twenty nineteen. 245 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: Why didn't they authenticate it? There's according to every report 246 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: I've read, there's evidence of crimes on that laptop. Well, 247 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: well even more Sean, why why did they authenticate it 248 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 1: and why did they go tell Big Tech? There's the 249 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: field the lookout for a hack in league operation, basically 250 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: priming the social media and he's prepping the social media 251 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: companies for what I assume they anticipated was coming a 252 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: dump of the a story about the Hunter Biden laptop. 253 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. Did they just put the laptop on 254 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: the shelf and not look at it. I don't know. 255 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: Maybe they did. I don't have the answer to that. 256 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: But those are things we would all like to know 257 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: as Americans, because we know that what happened with Big 258 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: Tech suppressing that story and shaping and molding the narrative 259 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: that had an impact from the twenty twenty election. We 260 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: know that. We know that for sure just as sure 261 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: as you and I are talking. So that's why mister 262 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: Khmer wants to get access to the suspicious activity reports 263 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: that Treasury won't let him have, so he wants to 264 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: get access to those. That's why we're doing the investigations. 265 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: We're doing to get to the bottom of what the 266 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: FBI was doing, what was really going on with not 267 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: just them and Twitter. We know about that from Elon Musk, 268 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: but what was happening with Facebook and some of the 269 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: other platforms as well. I'd like to know why the 270 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: FBI never corroborated it, all right, Jim Jordan, congressman a 271 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: great state of Ohio, a chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.

If you listen to the 354 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: mob in the media, inflation at six point four percent 355 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: somehow is a good number. They don't even listen to 356 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: their own fedshare acknowledging that the Central Bank has quote 357 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: a long way to go to reach a target inflation rate. 358 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: Remember the administration of Joe Biden inherited one point four 359 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: percent in terms of the consumer price index, and we're 360 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: finding out is it is having a devastating impact on 361 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: American families. I mean it just it is what it is. 362 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: Inflation is way up, wages are way down. I told 363 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: you yesterday Laurence Summers, who's been pretty accurate throughout the 364 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: Biden economic years and ahead of the curve, former Treasury 365 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: secretary under Obama, saying that consumers are running out of cash, 366 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: businesses are cutting costs, and geopolitical uncertainty on the rise, 367 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: and he says combined, he's warning these very large risk 368 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: could spark an economic crash. He said, quote, I think 369 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: the economy is now vulnerable to a moment where these 370 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: things all come together and it's like walking off the ledge. 371 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: Sometime in the middle or later part of this year. 372 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: He said it on a station in Boston. He said, 373 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 1: we've had all the experience of taking a course of 374 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: drugs and then giving up and stopping the drugs before 375 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: the course was exhaust it simply because we felt better 376 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: than whatever infection we had came back and it was 377 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: harder to fight the second time. He's not wrong. But 378 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: if you look at today's report, electricity up another twelve percent, 379 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: fuel oil up another twenty eight percent, natural gas up 380 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: twenty seven percent, groceries up eleven point three percent, and rents, 381 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: which have been going up astronomically, up another eight point 382 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: six percent. So if you want to keep your lights on, 383 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: food on your table, have a roof over your head, 384 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: you're paying more in Joe Biden's America. And meanwhile, Joe 385 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 1: is about to take our depleted strategic petroleum reserves and 386 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: sell another twenty six million barrels after he depleted them 387 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: because he viewed it as a natural national emergency that 388 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: Democrats polling in large part because of his record high 389 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: gas prices was an emergency from his perspective, it's supposed 390 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: to be for a real emergency anyway. So inflation takes 391 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: another unexpected jump. But that's not what the administration tell you. 392 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: They'll tell you the economy strong, just like the border secure. Okay, sure, 393 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: here's what they say today. I'm happy to report that's 394 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: the state of the Union and the state of our 395 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: economy is strong. On Friday morning, when I was over 396 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: with the President in South Court, he said this, So 397 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: I will just say what he said on Friday, which 398 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: is that the state of the economy is strong, and 399 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: that you know, you see that in the lowest unemployment 400 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: rate in fifty three years. You see that in the 401 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: most jobs created in the last two years. Continue to 402 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: build on an economy that is working that because of 403 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: the prison's policy, we have an economy that's showing continued resilience, 404 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: resilience in the labor market, resilience and consumer balance sheet 405 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: says Jamie was just mentioning. But beyond the savings rate, 406 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: we're also seeing historically low rates of credit card delinquency, 407 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: historically wrote low rates of mortgage concerns, and so that 408 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: suggests a resilience in households balance sheets as well. What 409 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: I'm most excited about is people are starting to feel 410 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: a sense of optimism as I see the impact of 411 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: the achievements in their own lives. Who is he talking to, 412 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: because I don't know anybody that's optimistic about this economy. 413 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: Steve Moore is going to give us his headline on 414 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: all of this economists, author of Trump and Omics, Sir, 415 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 1: how are you welcome back? I'm not optimistic. I don't 416 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: know anybody that is. I mean that way. I have 417 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: to admit, you know, I don't like to admit what 418 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, but I was wrong about this inflation reporter. 419 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought we had, you know, maybe turned 420 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: the corner on inflation, and what I think this report 421 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: that came out this morning in the cases, we haven't 422 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: turned the corner. And even with all these bead I mean, 423 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: how many times have they raised rates? Eight times I 424 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 1: think in the last six to nine months, and yet 425 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: the inflation isn't going away. Sixty one percent of the 426 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:58,479 Speaker 1: American people rate the economy is bad, not good. And 427 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: I want to just essentially at one point that you 428 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 1: made family finances are a mess right now. Yeah, you've 429 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: seen this report on box News that more and more 430 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: Americans are now having to dig into their fur one 431 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 1: k plans the money in their four own cave retirement. 432 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: That's that plans to pay their bills. Now you know 433 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: this strong, That's a terrible way to pay your bills 434 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: because you have to pay an enormous penalty if you 435 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: get you get clobbered on both ends of that, and 436 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: you're losing your retirement, which exact for many people, how 437 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: many decades have they been spending building it up. Yeah. Now, 438 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: the other thing people are doing because of this financial 439 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: stress is there they are racking up credit card debt 440 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: and you and I've talked about this over the last 441 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: number of months, but it keeps getting worse and worse. 442 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: One out a trillion dollars of credit card debt, and 443 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 1: that's also a bad way to pay your bills because 444 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 1: you know, the credit card interest rates can be as 445 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: highest twenty five percent. So people, you're why people are 446 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: financially stressed and squeezed. And from Joe Biden to get 447 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: up there on that stage and say how wonderful things 448 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: are that this is the days of you know, wine 449 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: and roses, I don't think the American people are buying it. 450 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: Explain to people what will that We're in a very 451 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 1: interesting time in terms of a ten year treasury versus 452 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: a one year treasury bond and what the yield is. 453 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: So this is called an inverted yield curve, and what 454 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: it shows is that the long term interist rates are 455 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: actually lower right now than the shorter term interest rates, 456 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: which is, in other words, if you if you put 457 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: in let's say a thousand dollars in a ten year treasury, 458 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: that rate will be lower, That annualized rate in terms 459 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: of return will be lower than if you did it 460 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: for one year. That's exactly right, and so that's usually 461 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: a sign of pestimism. And there's your pestimism. People are 462 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: just worried about about where things are going in the future. 463 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: I just see it, you know, all the time. I mean, 464 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: the one positive thing in the economy is the jobs market. 465 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 1: There are jobs out there. But look at the layoffs, 466 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: my goodness. And once those large companies start laying off workers, 467 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: you know, that starts to impact the medium sized businesses 468 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: and lower sized businesses. So it all goes back, though, 469 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: it all circles back. Why are we in this crisis? 470 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: I believe that the match that lit this forest fire, 471 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 1: John was the massive four and a half trillion dollars 472 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: that Biden came in and spent and borrowed, which is 473 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 1: just it is pumping all of this cheap money in 474 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: the economy, paying people not to work, lowering the output 475 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: of goods and services, and putting us in this kind 476 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: of economic cycle of despair. Do you agree what I 477 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: just said that Lawrence Summers just predicting here. It's like, 478 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: you know, the economy is vulnerable to this geopolitical uncertainty, 479 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: consumers running out of cash, businesses cutting costs, and that 480 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: there is a moment where this can all walk off 481 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: the ledge in the middle of the latter part of 482 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: this year. Do you share that pessimism. I don't know 483 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: when it's going to happen, you know, I'm not going 484 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: to say it's gonna happen in three months or six 485 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: months or nine months or a year or two years 486 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: from now. What I do believe, and I hope I'm 487 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: wrong on this, is that we are going to see 488 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: a financial crisis and it's going to happen because this 489 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: is what always happens when you get both the government 490 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 1: massively in debt and as you just said, consumers in debt. 491 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: That you can't keep doing that, and so that's why 492 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: it is so urgent that we get control of the spending. 493 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: I am totally with Kevin McCarthy. We cannot pass that extension. 494 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: It would be incredibly financially irresponsible to just give another 495 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 1: credit code extension to Joe Biden. Does that make any 496 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: sense for him? No? Absolutely none, none. You know, can 497 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: you imagine John, if you went into a bank and 498 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: let's say your business was losing money and so you 499 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: needed a loan or you needed an extension of your 500 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: credit with the with the bag, what's the first question 501 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: they would ask you, how are you going to get 502 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: out of debt? Biden has never response to that thirty 503 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: two trillion dollars in debt that goes to our kids 504 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: and grandkids. It's that simple. Um, let me ask it 505 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 1: on a more micro level, because there are a lot 506 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: of people listening to this program, and like two thirds 507 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: of the rest of the country to live in paycheck 508 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: to paycheck. What advice do you have for them. I 509 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: got criticized because I said, the only two things I 510 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: can think of is spending less and bringing in more money. 511 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: And the way you bring in more money, it means 512 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: you may have to take a second job. You know 513 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: things that I've I've done at different points in my life. 514 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: You know, when I when I didn't have any money. 515 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: It's not an alien thought to me. And the fact 516 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: that I said it and people criticize me. For people 517 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: Hannity said you need to get your ass to work more, 518 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that's what I did. Um, you know, 519 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: I didn't think it was that unusual to offer us advice. 520 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: What do you tell people that are struggling that don't 521 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: want to tap their retirement savings, but yet they're not 522 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: making ends meet every month. Well, people are going to 523 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: have to do what government doesn't do and should do, 524 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: which is people are gonna have to tighten our doubts. 525 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: These are tough times. You know. Joe Biden is spending 526 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: our money on government programs that are You've seen literally 527 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: hundreds of billions of dollars of waste, fraud, stolen money 528 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: from these programs. Nobody in Washington does damn thing about it. 529 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: It's so infuriating to me. How dare Joe Biden asks 530 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: people to pay more taxes when they can't even figure 531 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: out where all the money is going. So I know 532 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: that's not an exact name. Well, no, nobody even seems 533 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: to realize. On January first, you raise taxes on oil, gas, coal, pensions, 534 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: and two hundred and twenty five billion on corporations. I 535 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: mean hundreds of billions of dollars in new taxes, and 536 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: it impacts everybody that makes under four hundred thousand dollars 537 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,959 Speaker 1: a year, and nobody seems to want to talk about it, 538 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: and it means luss jobs for Americans. So I think 539 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: the answer your questions people need to you know, can't 540 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: keep borrowing, folks, I mean borrowing is gets you into 541 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: big trouble. I agree with you. Look, get take us. 542 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: If you're not working and you could be working, get 543 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: a job, Get a job. Now when I talk to 544 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: the people at the Brew of Labor Statistics, who you know, 545 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: run these numbers, and they're telling me, Sean that there 546 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: are essentially five million Americans missing American workers, people who 547 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: could be and should be working, who are not working 548 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: at the labor force participation rate we had under Trump. Now, 549 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: why do you think that is? I'm going to answer 550 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: my own question. I think a big reason I think 551 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: you'd agree with me on this is we're paying people 552 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: not to work. With all these Biden bucks just sending 553 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: money to people, and then they feel like they don't 554 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: have to work. If that can't go on forever, that's 555 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: my point. Well, I think that now is coming to 556 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: an end, and then it's going to be interesting to 557 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: see what happens. You know, Laurence Summers actually said for 558 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: us to really get out of the economic situation we're in, 559 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: we'd need unemployment for one year to be at ten percent. 560 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: That when nowhere near that number. Um. But what he's 561 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: really predicting is the potential tipping point here if we 562 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: have this convergence of events, which seems like a possibility. 563 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: Steve Moore, appreciate it. Thank you, my friend. Okay, thanks 564 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: se have a great day. Quick, Frank, we'll come right back. 565 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: We'll hit the phones and we'll update you on the 566 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: situation of this what is now a chemical environmental disaster 567 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: in Ohio at the Ohio Pennsylvania border as we continue 568 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: classic the biggest stories of the day were solutions to 569 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: help move America forward. This is a show. Let's hit 570 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: up busy Bones. Philip is in Virginia. Philip, You're on 571 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: the Sean Hannity Show. Hi, how you do? It's on? 572 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: Good sir? What's going on? Well, I mean, when we 573 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: were talking with your last caller, in all honestly, Art, 574 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: we do not need Joe Biden to be spending any 575 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: more of our taxpayer money on like the programs that 576 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: your last dollar mentioned. I mean, he has been too 577 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: tight knit with China that it makes a lot of 578 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: Americans absolutely sick to their stomach. Well, let me say this, 579 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: because I think you're raising a really good point here, 580 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: is that Biden, I think, does not have any fundamental 581 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: understanding of economics. He is he's given into an occultist, 582 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: radical agenda regardless of the consequences, and in many ways 583 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: American now has unilaterally economically speaking, disarmed and they did 584 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: that with Biden's energy policies. You see it in pretty 585 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,719 Speaker 1: much every aspect. Every department of government is doing something green, 586 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: associating every single decision with green, and yet it's it's 587 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: not helping the average American citizen. So I don't think 588 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: there's anything you can point to that he is successful at. 589 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: And I don't even know if the American people realize 590 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: how bad this is and how bad this potentially can get. 591 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying to warn this audience so that you can 592 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: make preparations, you know, for a worst case scenario, because 593 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident, unfortunately, that that's where we're headed. And 594 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: the people in this audience are pretty sophisticated and pretty smart. 595 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: If you find yourself not making ends meet, I would 596 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: strongly encourage you if you are physically mentally able and 597 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: you have the capacity to take on more work, more 598 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: opportunity to bring in more money, rather than say tapping 599 00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: into your retirement savings, uh, you know, tightening the belt 600 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: wherever you can, you know, I think these are all 601 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: good ideas. I know somebody that's sold, you know, their 602 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: car because they could get a lot more than what 603 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: they normally would have been able to get, and that's 604 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: money in their pocket and decided to go with an 605 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: old car for a small period of time. And you 606 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: know what, did it because it's just financial financially a 607 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: smart decision. I'm like, that makes sense to me. Anyway. 608 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: Eight hundred nine one, Shawn our number if you want 609 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. At the top 610 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: of the next hour, we're going to go over this 611 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: this economic disaster that is going on in Ohio and 612 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: why all these train derailments all of a sudden, And 613 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: where is mayor Pete pothole? Pete isn't anywhere to be found. 614 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: Many of you may not know this, but your home 615 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: can actually be stolen. Have you ever heard that before. 616 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: It's true. We have criminals all around the world. They 617 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: targeting American homeowners. The crime is called home title fraud. 618 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: And what these hackers do is they discover the deed 619 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: to your home is online. Everybody's everybody's deed is available online. 620 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: And these thieves then ford your signature on a document 621 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: and claim you sold them your home, then they borrow 622 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of dollars against your home, or they 623 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: sell it to foreign investors, and you likely won't find 624 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: out about it till a late notice occurs, or you 625 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: get a foreclosure notice on your home, and you may 626 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 1: not know that. Your homeowners insurance may not cover home 627 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: title theft. Even many common identity theft programs don't cover it, 628 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: but home title Lock does, and the instant they detect 629 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 1: any suspicious activity, they're gonna mobilize to help shut it down. Now, 630 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: you can first verify that your home is still in 631 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: your name, absolutely free, no obligation, and then register for 632 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: thirty days of protection at home title loock dot com. 633 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: Use the promo code sean that's hometitle lock dot com 634 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: promo code sean, and make sure that your home is 635 00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: still in your good name hold
