1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:01,680 Speaker 1: Welcome. 2 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 2: It is verdict to a Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson 3 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 2: with you, Senator, we have got a lot to talk about. 4 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 2: Two major stories, the House formalizing the impeachment inquiry into 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 2: Joe Biden, and for everyone listening, we are going to 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,639 Speaker 2: go deep into the legal aspect of this and what 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 2: is the cause for this instead of the weaponization of 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 2: impeachment which is what the Democrats did to Donald J. 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 1: Trump. 10 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: But before we get to that, Senator, I also want 11 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: to talk about Hunter Biden and Hunter Biden's refusal to 12 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 2: show for this deposition. He had this press conference on 13 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: Capitol Hill but said I'm only willing to go public. 14 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: I'm not willing to go behind closed doors. That is 15 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 2: dictating to Congress what you will and won't do. Usually 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: doesn't end well unless you know the deck is stacked 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 2: on your half, on your side with a DOJ that 18 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 2: refuses to prosecute. Is that part of how this is 19 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: going to play out for him? 20 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: Well, let me say, first of all, we now know 21 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 3: the answer to what we talked about in the last podcast, 22 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: which is whether or not Hunter Biden was going to 23 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 3: defy the congressional subpoena and the answer is yes, and 24 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give credit where credits due. I thought the 25 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 3: odds were about fifty to fifty. I could see him 26 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: going either way, and you were one hundred percent on 27 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 3: the other side. And so, Benjamin, you were right. I 28 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: was at best fifty percent right. 29 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna frame. I'm going to frame this transcript 30 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: and put it in my office. 31 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: Now. 32 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 2: This is the first time in history of verdict I've 33 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: gotten these accolades. 34 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: Cut it off right now. I'm telling you, I'm manning up. 35 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 3: I'm I'm admitting it. You didn't even have to rub 36 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 3: my nose in it. I came forth right on the 37 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 3: front end. Look, he refused to comply with a subpoena. 38 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 3: There are a number of things that will flow from that. 39 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 3: One of the things that will flow from that is 40 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 3: the House I believe will hold Hunter Biden in contempt. 41 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 3: That's significant, being held in contempt of Congress. That you 42 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 3: can be jailed for being in contempt of Congress. And 43 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 3: and but for that to happen, the Department of Justice 44 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: has to prosecute you. And I got to say, one 45 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: of the reasons why I think Hunter Biden is perfectly 46 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: content to defy a congressional subpoena is he does not 47 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: believe Daddy's Department of Justice will prosecute him, and so 48 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 3: I think he and his lawyers feel like they can 49 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 3: just ignore the subpoena. But when the contempt vote happens, 50 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 3: and I think the votes will be there to hold 51 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 3: him in contempt, that will be the next stage in 52 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 3: the escalation. Now we talked about previously on verdict. Why 53 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 3: often when you have someone come in for testimony, you 54 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 3: proceed it with a closed door deposition where you get 55 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: into more detail, you go back and forth, you prepare 56 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 3: for the open hearing. And that's what the House Republicans did. Now, 57 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 3: I will say At Hunter Biden's press conference, he said, quote, 58 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: Republicans do not want an open process where Americans can 59 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: see their tactics, expose their baseless inquiry, or hear what 60 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: I have to say. What are they afraid of? I'm here, 61 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 3: I'm ready. So I got to tell you, Ben, I 62 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: would advice to Jim Jordan and James Comer take him 63 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: up on his offer, hold him in contempt, fine, but 64 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 3: also bring him to an open hearing. He has said 65 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 3: he would testify in an open hearing. Yes, there are 66 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 3: strategic advantages to doing a closed door deposition first, but 67 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 3: get him under oath and in front of the American people. 68 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,119 Speaker 3: If the outcome of this is he defies the subpoena, 69 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 3: he's held in contempt and nothing, nothing, nothing happens, that 70 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: is a bad outcome. That is not an outcome that 71 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: furthers justice. That is not an outcome that furthers holding 72 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 3: Joe Biden accountable for his misconduct. And so I think 73 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: the best Yes, they're irritated that he's defying their request, 74 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: and I think they ought to hold him in contempt, 75 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 3: but they also ought to schedule that open hearing for 76 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: the first week the House is back in January and 77 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 3: put him under oath on record on national TV and 78 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: walk him through the evidence. 79 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: If they do that, does that mean that you lose 80 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: the chance for the closed door deposition? And is that 81 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 2: also and I'm playing devil's advocate here, does that imply 82 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: that you're basically conceding to the demands of Hunter Biden 83 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: on the entire US Congress. 84 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 3: Yes and yes, and so what look losing the closed 85 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 3: door deposition? There are some advantages to having that, sure, 86 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 3: but you can litigate about it. For a year and 87 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 3: get nothing. Or on your second point, they could be piqued, 88 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 3: they could be annoyed. Well, gosh, no witness is going 89 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: to dictate what we do because we're tough. Well, so 90 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: what Look, there's a job to be done. And the 91 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: good thing is you and I both know Jim Jordan 92 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 3: and James Comer these are serious men focused on a 93 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 3: serious task. And so I think the appropriate reaction is 94 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: not to have your feelings hurt, and not even to 95 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 3: be annoyed, although you are perfectly justified in being annoyed 96 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 3: that a witness is effectively dictating the method in which 97 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 3: he will testify. That is annoying, and in the vast 98 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 3: majority of situations it's utterly unacceptable. In this case, there 99 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: is a overriding interest of justice of putting the evidence 100 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 3: before the American people. And remember this is something that 101 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 3: you and I have said a lot on verdict. This 102 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 3: is not about Hunter Biden. This is about Joe Biden. 103 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: Great point. 104 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 3: If the result of this is they spend the next 105 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: year fighting over the contempt finding, that is a complete 106 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: waste of time. We need the evidence in front of 107 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: the American people that Joe Biden was corrupt, and in 108 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 3: this Hunter Biden is an accomplice and he's a witness, 109 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: but he's not the actual target. The only reason anyone 110 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 3: cares about Hunter Biden is because he was integally involved 111 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: in the alleged corruption and bribery of his father, who 112 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 3: was vice president of the United States and is now 113 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 3: the President of the United States. That's why they should say, fine, 114 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 3: we'll have you first week of January in front of 115 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 3: the full hearing on TV and will walk you systematic 116 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 3: through the questions and might they get some surprises. 117 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 4: Yes. 118 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 3: Part of the reason you do a closed door deposition 119 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 3: is so you don't get surprised. You get an answer 120 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: in the deposition, and then when you do the hearing, 121 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 3: if they say something different, you can confront them with, well, 122 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 3: that's not what you said at our deposition. I get 123 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 3: that that that that is strategically better. But my point 124 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: is having Hunter testify under oath now versus not having 125 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 3: him testify for the next year. It ain't even close, 126 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 3: which is better for the pursuit of justice. 127 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: All right, So let's say that what you're you're mentioning 128 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: here happens. I want I want us both to go 129 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: on the record. Would Hunter Biden show up for that 130 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 2: public here and now I claims he would, right, but 131 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 2: he was saying that because he wasn't going to show 132 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: up for that, that was his way of getting out 133 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: of the closed door. So let's say that that Jim 134 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 2: Jordan and James Comer, they do this to speak of 135 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: the House says, let's this our new strategy, Johnson, let's 136 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: go with it. Do you believe that Hunter Biden would 137 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: actually show for that open hearing? 138 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: So again, I don't know. 139 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: I think there is a significant chance he wouldn't show 140 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 3: for the open hearing. But if you forced me to 141 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: put odds to it, I'd probably say sixty forty he shows. 142 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 3: I think there's a forty percent chance he backs out 143 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: and said, oh I was just kidding. I'm not going 144 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 3: to testify there either. But I think there's a sixty 145 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 3: percent chance that he follows through. He is at this 146 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 3: point defiantly said he's ready to go, and he's made 147 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 3: that offer, and I think Ego and Vanity may compel 148 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: him to go and testify in the open if that's 149 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 3: what happens, what do you think? Where are your on? 150 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: I think there's a zero percent chance he'd show up 151 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 2: for the second one, because if he knows he doesn't 152 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: have to show up for either, and they're not going 153 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: to hold him in content because and you would know 154 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: this legally, I don't. I'm asking you sincerely, if he 155 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: didn't show up for the public hearing, what's the recourse there? 156 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: Would it go to the j. 157 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: They hold him in contempt and DJ again would would 158 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,119 Speaker 3: sit on their hands and do nothing. 159 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: So if you're gonna if you're gonna be held in 160 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: contempt the first time, why not double up on it 161 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: and say nothing at all. 162 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 3: Look, you're actually going very good legal advice for someone 163 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 3: without a JD. There's a lot of force to what 164 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: you say. Look, the reason I think it is slightly 165 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 3: more likely than not that he shows up is is ego. 166 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 3: It is entirely who he is. And they've been so 167 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 3: braggadocious saying that he would do it that I think 168 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: he would find it personally hard to back out of. 169 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 3: But there's no doubt the risk averse the CYA approach 170 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 3: is don't show up to either. By the way, that 171 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 3: shouldn't be the risk averse approach. If we actually had 172 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: a functioning Department of Justice that would go and prosecute 173 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 3: you for contempt to Congress, then the risk calculus would change. 174 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 3: But remember Congress held Eric Holder, then the Attorney General 175 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 3: of the United States, in contempt, and DJ did nothing. 176 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 3: Now Eric Holder was in charge of DJ, but they 177 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 3: did nothing. And I don't expect the Biden DOJ to 178 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 3: do any different. 179 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I prosecuted and convicted for contempt to Congress. Biden's 180 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: punishment could keyword could, if you're looking at the book, 181 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: be up to one hundred thousand dollars fine and imprisonment. 182 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 2: And I want to just just let me stew in 183 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: this for a second, because I think everyone listening right 184 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: now probably feels this way. It is so frustrating to 185 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: live in a country where there's such a blatant double 186 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: standard in how the laws applied. You look at Peter 187 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 2: Navarro and Steve Bannon. They were indicted on contempt charges 188 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: for not complying with you with what many referred to 189 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: as the illegitimate January sixth Committee. There was no basis 190 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: to comply with the Democrats fake committee, right, that had 191 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 2: fake Republicans on there, and it was done not the 192 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 2: way that it's normally done historically. And yet those two 193 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 2: men no problem being arrested and tried to ruin their lives. 194 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 2: It's hard, I think for so many people listening right 195 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 2: now to sit here and to be okay with this 196 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: and to see the DOJ weaponized in this way. It 197 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: was Matthew Graves who was the DC attorney who prosecuted 198 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: Navara and Bannon. 199 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: Let me remind everybody. 200 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: He worked on the presidential campaigns for Joe Biden as 201 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 2: well as other Democrats. And this is a process now 202 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 2: where I think Americans are so frustrated. So do you 203 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: agree that it's that we are all not crazy to 204 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: be so irritated and frustrated at these two standards of 205 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: justice that we're watching play out in real time. 206 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 3: So I agree that everyone but Ben is not crazy. Look, 207 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: it is absolutely a double standard. And if you don't 208 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 3: believe me that it's a double standard, believe Joe Biden. 209 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 3: Listen to this clip. In October of twenty twenty one, 210 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 3: when asked this exact question, here's what Biden had to say, 211 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 3: talk to. 212 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 5: You so much today, You're not going to talk to anymore. 213 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: By Congressional Subdinas on the January sixth committee, I. 214 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 6: Hope that the committee goes after them hold. 215 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: Him accountable, any prosecuting I do, yes, I do yes. 216 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: That was the response from Again. 217 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: You could hear in the background Marine one's spooling up 218 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: there and he's saying, yes, you should be held accountable, Yes, 219 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 2: you should be held in contempt.

If 252 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 3: they're going after someone in the Trump White House, then 253 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 3: absolutely they want to hold them in contempt, they want 254 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: to prosecute them, they want doj to go after them, 255 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 3: and they're happy to do that. If it's Hunter's son 256 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 3: who's covering up evidence of criminality from daddy, who happens 257 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 3: to be the President of the United States, then the 258 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 3: Biden Department of Justice they act like they're in army 259 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 3: of the DNC that they do not behave like they 260 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 3: have any obligation to the rule of law. Merrick Garland 261 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 3: should be impeached and removed from office. He's been a 262 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 3: disgrace as Attorney General. And part of why they do 263 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 3: this is they know the Department of Justice is weaponized 264 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 3: and politicized, and they also know that the media is 265 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: thoroughly dishonest. So, for example, Hunter, when he was explaining 266 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 3: that he would not not go to the closed door deposition, 267 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: he said his father was not financially involved in his business, 268 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 3: and financially Suddenly that word came in. Now, remember Joe 269 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 3: Biden used to say he'd never talked with his son 270 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 3: about his business, he never talked to his business associates. 271 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 3: All of those proved wrong. Then the Biden White House 272 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 3: said he was not involved, he was not in business 273 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 3: with and now Hunter says his father is not quote 274 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 3: financially involved in his business. They keep moving the standard. 275 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 3: But you know what, really, let's play. 276 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 2: Let's play Joe Biden saying this because if you remember, 277 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 2: you go back to the first clip I want to play. 278 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: People is from des Moines, Iowa, September twenty one, twenty nineteen. 279 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: He was angry when he was answering Peter Deucy's question. 280 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 2: Take a listen, how many. 281 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 4: Times have you ever spoken to your son about his 282 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 4: overseas business dealings. 283 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 5: I've never spoken my son about his overseas med servians. 284 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 6: I have never discussed with my son, or my brother 285 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 6: or anyone else in being him to do with their 286 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 6: business period. And what I will do is the same 287 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 6: thing we did in our administration. Don't be an absolute. 288 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: Wall between personal and private. 289 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 6: In the government. 290 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 4: Do you stand by your statement that you did not 291 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 4: discuss any of your son's overseas business large, Dan barlast, I. 292 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: Mean he lied to all of us, Enator, he did, 293 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 3: and compare that to what Hunter said this week, it 294 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 3: could compare compare that to the latest statement. 295 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: Play that clip. 296 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 5: Let me state as clearly as I can, my father 297 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 5: was not financially involved in my business, not as a 298 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 5: practicing lawyer, not as a board member of Parisma, not 299 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 5: in my partnership with a Chinese private businessman, not in 300 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 5: my investments at home or abroad, and certainly not as 301 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 5: an artist. Story in my battle with addictions, my parents 302 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 5: were there for me. They literally saved my life. 303 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 2: By the way, Senator you and I predicted this was 304 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 2: going to be the alibi all along. Oh yeah, he's 305 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: an addict, and he and he went into it perfectly. 306 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: He paused, he took a deep breath, and then he 307 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 2: and then he lays it on real thick. I was 308 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: an addict, and my parents were there for me and 309 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: then listened the last part. 310 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: They helped me in ways that I will never be 311 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: able to repay. Of course, they would never. 312 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 6: Expect me to. 313 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 5: And in the depths of my addiction, I was extremely 314 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 5: irresponsible with my finances. But to suggest that his grounds 315 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 5: for an impiacement in Query is beyond the absurd. 316 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: It's shameless. 317 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 5: There's no evidence to support the allegations that my father 318 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 5: was financially involved in my business because it did not happen. 319 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 2: So it's pretty clear that both of them are lying 320 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: to the American people. 321 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 3: Well, but there's an important context. So that's a categorical 322 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 3: denial that Joe Biden was financially involved in his businesses. 323 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: But you know it's different. 324 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: It's not under oath. 325 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 3: It's not sorn testimony, which means he can lie to 326 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: the reporters, and it's not a felony. If he had 327 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 3: said the same thing, either in a closed door deposition 328 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 3: under oath or in testimony in the house under oath, 329 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 3: and if he'd lied, and you could prove he lied, 330 00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 3: that would be a felony. That would be the equivalent 331 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 3: of perjury, and it would be it would be it 332 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 3: would come with jail time attached to it. And so 333 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 3: that's part of why Hunter doesn't want to be under oath, 334 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 3: so he can lie without consequences. But he also knows 335 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 3: that his lies will be amplified by democratic hacks in 336 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 3: Congress and by the corrupt corporate media. So I want 337 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 3: to I want to tell you what the New York 338 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: Times did. So Hunter's opening sentence there, let me read 339 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 3: it to you again. Let me state as clearly as 340 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 3: I can, my father was not financially involved in my business. 341 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 3: Now here's how the New York Times reported his quote. 342 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 3: Let me state it as clearly as I can. My 343 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 3: father was not involved in my business. The word financially 344 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 3: the New York Times miraculously deleted. They are covering up 345 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 3: for it. They're not journalists, they're liars. And it's not 346 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 3: an accident. That wasn't a typo removing the word financially. 347 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 3: Look you read financially, you're like, oh, okay, I get 348 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: the joke, like like it's it's a bad dodge. And 349 00:17:58,359 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 3: so The New York Times said, well, here's what he's 350 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: an the way, We'll just delete it and have him 351 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: say my father was not involved in my business, which was, 352 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 3: of course the old lie Joe Biden told in Des Moine, 353 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 3: but that lie is no longer operative. 354 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 2: One other question on this before we move over to 355 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 2: the impeachment inquiry. If Hunter Biden into your Hunter Biden's 356 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: attorneys right now, what is your advice to him. The 357 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: White House, we hear is getting very nervous. We see 358 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 2: this from reporting, This come out from Access. It's not conservative. 359 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 2: They've come out saying now the White House and people 360 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 2: within the White House are very upset with this. They're 361 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 2: very upset with the press conference he did. They think 362 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: the press conference made things a lot worse. As White 363 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: House insiders apparently said that those inside the White House 364 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 2: are saying that he is ruining things for his dad's 365 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: re election bid. It's an unwelcome distraction, is another apparently 366 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: person said it inside the White House. 367 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: Tax him, and you look at the polls, and polls matter. 368 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: Biden is the least popular president in modern US history. 369 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: Now. 370 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: According to the five thirty eight poll, ce An m 371 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 2: Poll Center has sixty seven percent disapprove of Biden's economy, 372 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: saying that's the number one issue, and a red Field 373 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: and Wilton Strategies pols there is a majority of Democrats 374 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 2: are quote concerned about the Biden's ability to perform Joe 375 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: Biden's ability to perform. 376 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: His job now due to his age. 377 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 2: You add that to what we've just witnessed over the 378 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 2: last twenty four to forty eight hours, and this is 379 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 2: where Democrats have got to be freaking out inside this 380 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 2: White House. As one Democratic strategist who worked on Clinton's 381 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen campaign said, quote, I have a pit in 382 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 2: my stomach about it. The email controversy was silly, but 383 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 2: it was made to be a distraction and it worked. 384 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 2: And now he says the Hunter story has the legs 385 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 2: to ruin things for the Bidens. 386 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: The Democratic strategists added, quote unquote. 387 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 3: Look, I think there are a lot of democrats. I 388 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 3: think there are a lot of people in the press 389 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 3: that are getting very nervous about Joe Biden. The mounting evidence. 390 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 3: You know, when you have twenty shell corporations, when you 391 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 3: have hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of dollars 392 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 3: going back and forth and coming from communist China and 393 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 3: coming from Ukraine and coming from Russia, and coming from 394 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 3: corrupt oligarchs, when you have transfers, when you have check 395 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 3: after check after check going directly to Joe Biden, when 396 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: you have Joe Biden on tape getting caught lying about 397 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 3: it over and over and over again. Of course the 398 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 3: Democrats are nervous. Anyone paying attention recognizes there is very 399 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 3: significant evidence of corruption. And the simple question to ask 400 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 3: even the most rabid partisan democrat is what services did 401 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 3: Hunter Biden have to sell? What would anyone pay him 402 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 3: millions of dollars for? He has no discernible skills. So 403 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 3: generally speaking, foreign oligarchs are not in the habit of 404 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 3: paying millions of dollars just to random crackheads. What is 405 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 3: it that he was selling, and there's only one possible answer, 406 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: and that is favors from Daddy. That's what the democrats 407 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 3: and the corporate media do not want you to focus on. 408 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 3: Is what was given. Let's go back to the heart 409 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 3: of impeachment, quid pro quo, what was given in exchange 410 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: for those millions of dollars? And if you ask that, 411 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 3: the only answer that anyone has proffered is at the 412 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 3: milder level, access to Daddy and at the full criminal level, 413 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 3: favors from Daddy. But that's really where that where the 414 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: debate is now. Of course, democrats of the media ignore 415 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 3: all of that and just say, no, there's no evidence 416 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 3: at all. There's no direct evidence, is what they say. 417 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: Of course, we did an entire podcast on how the 418 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 3: no direct evidence lie is a lie. You can go 419 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 3: back and listen to that podcast if you want. But 420 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 3: of course democrats are nervous. 421 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 2: Can you believe it is almost New Year's and that 422 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 2: means it's time for New Year's resolution? Yours may be 423 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 2: for all right, I want to get back in shape, 424 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 2: I want to lose some weight.

I want to move to the 450 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 2: other major issue, and they are very much intertwined, but separate, 451 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: and so let's look at this completely separately for a moment. 452 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 2: The House formalizing the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden. There 453 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 2: has been a lot of media protection on this story, 454 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: and I think it's important that we remind people why 455 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: this impeachment matters, why it's not a witch hunt, how 456 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 2: it's different from what the Democrats did against Donald J. 457 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: Trump when they knew. 458 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 2: For example, the Stell dossier was created by the DNC 459 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: and Hillary Clinton paid for by them. The FBI categorized 460 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: the still Dousier as user generated, meaning it was crap. 461 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 2: They even offered a million I think it was a 462 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 2: million dollars to Christopher Steel to authenticate anything in the dousier. 463 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: Couldn't do it, and yet they still used it and 464 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 2: weaponized it. To try to overthrow the will of the people. 465 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 2: And so I want people to understand that impeachment is important. 466 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 2: It shouldn't be used a political weapon, and Republicans are 467 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 2: not using it as a political weapon. So let's go 468 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: back and remind people why the House is formalizing this 469 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 2: impeachment inquiry. 470 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 3: Well, the reason the House says opened the impeachment inquiry 471 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 3: is because there is serious evidence of corruption. There is 472 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 3: serious evidence of bribery on behalf of the President of 473 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: the United States, and it's from multiple directions. But you know, 474 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 3: Jim Jordan sent out a very simple tweet that I 475 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 3: think is powerful. What Jim Jordan said was quote four 476 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 3: facts that will never change. One Hunter Biden sat on 477 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 3: Barisma's board, absolutely true. Two he was unqualified to do so, 478 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 3: absolutely true. Three Barisma pressured him to get DC to 479 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 3: act on policy issues in Ukraine. And four Joe Biden 480 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 3: did just that. Now, of those four facts, the only 481 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 3: one the Democrats argue against even slightly is number three. 482 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 3: And they have some disputes. They say, well, well, no, 483 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: Barisma didn't really want the prosecutor fired who was investigating 484 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 3: the corrupt oligarch who owns Barisma, because he was a 485 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 3: bad prosecutor, so they didn't really want him fired. Now, 486 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 3: I got to say, that is an incredibly weak argument, 487 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 3: and it is contrary to the evidence the House is compiled. 488 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 3: But that's the whole of their argument. And so remember 489 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 3: when they say no direct evidence. We talked a minute 490 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 3: ago about what is bribery. Bribery is quid pro quote 491 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 3: this for that. That's the Latin phrase that was for 492 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: Joe Biden to get the prosecutor fired in Ukraine. And 493 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 3: we know that Joe Biden did that. We know that 494 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 3: the quot happen because Joe Biden has confessed on video 495 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 3: that he flew to Ukraine that he held over a 496 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 3: billion dollars in US taxpayer funds that are guaranteeing loans 497 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 3: to Ukraine. He held them hostage and said you will 498 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: not get that money unless you fire the prosecutor. And 499 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 3: then his response, we've talked about at length, was son 500 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 3: of a bitch. They fired the prosecutor. So the quo 501 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 3: is admitted, it is stipulated. Joe Biden has confessed on 502 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 3: video to it. The only question is the quid, which 503 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 3: is was he paid or and by the way, paying 504 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 3: his family for that that official act is also bribery. 505 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 3: So it doesn't matter whether the money went directly to 506 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 3: Joe Biden's bank account or whether it simply went to 507 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 3: Hunter Biden's bank account. We know that he was making 508 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 3: eighty three thousand dollars a month. Hunter was to sit 509 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 3: on a board. Now, mind you, I don't know of 510 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 3: another board anywhere on Earth that pays eighty three grand 511 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 3: a month to board members. 512 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: That is bizarre. Just on the face of it. 513 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 3: It's a lot more than Exxon Mobile pays their board members. 514 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 3: It's a lot more than any board I've ever heard 515 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 3: of pays their board members. And remember, Hunter Biden had 516 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 3: zero experience in oil and gas. He didn't speak Ukrainian. 517 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 3: I'm not even sure he could find Ukraine on a map. 518 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 3: What he did have was Daddy's cell phone. What he 519 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 3: did have was Daddy's fake email addresses. What he did 520 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 3: have was Daddy's burner phones. What he did have was 521 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: access to Daddy. And I got to say it was 522 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 3: a good investment. If you're a corrupt olagark and you 523 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 3: hire Skippy boy here and Daddy uses the full force 524 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 3: of the US government to get the prosecutor fired, who's 525 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: coming after you. That is a great investment. So that 526 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 3: is number one right at the heart of the impeachment inquiry. 527 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 3: But number two, we have the WhatsApp where Hunter is 528 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 3: shaking down a Chinese communist and saying, I'm sitting here 529 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: next to my father, and he's threatening retaliation from Daddy, 530 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 3: not from Hunter, from Daddy, from Joe Biden if they 531 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 3: didn't pay him millions of dollars. And we know that 532 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 3: they paid him millions of dollars. So that again, look, 533 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 3: bribery can be on either front. It can be either 534 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 3: for getting a benefit, but it can also be bribery. 535 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 3: Pay me money, give me a benefit, or else I 536 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 3: will do this bad thing through government to you. That's 537 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 3: also bribery. You know, if if a prosecutor for US 538 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 3: attorney says give me a million dollars or else I 539 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 3: will indict you, and you give him a million dollars 540 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 3: and he doesn't indict you, that's bribery. In this case, 541 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 3: the retaliation that Hunter was threatening from Daddy, it would 542 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 3: absolutely constitute bribery on Joe's part. And mind you, the 543 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 3: irs whistleblowers say that in the investigation they wanted to 544 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 3: get the GPS data It's very simple to ascertain when 545 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 3: Hunter sent that WhatsApp text, was he in fact sitting 546 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 3: next to Joe. You'll have Hunter's GPS data, You'll have 547 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 3: Joe's GPS data if they're in the same room, if 548 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 3: they're sitting next to each other. That goes right to 549 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 3: the heart of that Joe knew and was in evolved 550 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: in shaking down these corrupt foreign players. That's why the 551 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 3: house has now opened to the impeachment inquiry. 552 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 2: For more than ten years, Patriot Mobile has been America's 553 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 2: only Christian conservative wireless provider.

I want 579 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 2: to get your reaction to something that was said on MSNBC. 580 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: They're claiming now that Biden's impeachment inquiry is quote Trump's retribution. 581 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: Take a listen to this. 582 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 7: The fact that there is no there there probably doesn't 583 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 7: bother the likes of Jim Jordan. I think Representative McGovern 584 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 7: got it right when he said and Trump asks them 585 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 7: to jump, they say how high, and. 586 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,479 Speaker 1: That they're now jumping. 587 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 7: They're now jumping for Trump. This is his retribution and 588 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 7: it's a pr a pr very cynical, pr driven attempt 589 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 7: to besmirch Biden without any. 590 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: Evidence, without any evidence. You just went through that evidence. 591 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: But this is what we're up against the media saying 592 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: this is just retribution for Trump. 593 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: No, it's not, this is based on the facts. 594 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 3: Well, MSNBC is not actually a journalistic outlet. They are propagandists. 595 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 3: They are the left wing of the Democrat Party. So 596 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 3: they're going to repeat that and ignore the facts altogether. 597 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 3: They won't cover the facts. Look, if you watch MSNBC, 598 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 3: you have no idea that Hunter Biden sent a WhatsApp 599 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 3: text to a Chinese communist shaking him down for millions 600 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 3: of dollars. You don't know that because you know what, 601 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 3: if they don't report on any evidence, then they can 602 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 3: send idiots on camera to say there's no evidence. And 603 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 3: if all you watch is MSNBC, you're you're right, You're 604 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: there is no evidence because they won't report on any 605 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 3: of the evidence. It's purely circular. And that is part 606 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 3: of why the Democrats their behavior is so bad. The 607 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 3: corrupt corporate media facilitates their blatant dishonesty, because the corporate 608 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 3: media has every bit as dishonest as the White House is. 609 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think we should end with this. James 610 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: Comer took to the floor of the House. This is 611 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 2: the man that's been digging into all this. He's been 612 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 2: a guest on Verdict. There's a two part series. You 613 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 2: can go back and listen to it, but I want 614 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: you to hear what he had to say on the 615 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 2: floor of the House. 616 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: Just as a reminder, Kentucky's recognized for three minutes. 617 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 4: Thank you, Chairman Cole Mister Speaker, I rise today to 618 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 4: support House Resolution nine eighteen. Joe Biden has repeatedly lied 619 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 4: to the American people about his family's corrupt influence peddling schemes. 620 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 4: He told the American people he never spoke to his 621 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 4: son about his family's business dealings. He claimed there was 622 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 4: an absolute wall between his official government duties as Vice 623 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 4: President and his family. He said his family never made 624 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 4: money from China. All of these are blatant lies. Our 625 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 4: investigation has revealed how Joe Biden you of participated in 626 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 4: and benefited from his family cashing in on the Biden 627 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 4: name around the world Since January, we have learned some 628 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 4: of the following. The Bidens created twenty shell companies, most 629 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 4: of which were created while Joe Biden's vice president. The 630 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 4: Bidens and their associates then raked in over twenty four 631 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 4: million dollars through these shell companies from China, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhtan, 632 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 4: and Romania between twenty fourteen and twenty nineteen. At least 633 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 4: ten members of the Biden family have benefited or participated 634 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 4: in these schemes. The Bidens layered these payments through their 635 00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 4: bank accounts to hide the sources of the money. The 636 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 4: banks even flagged many of these transactions in more than 637 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty suspicious activity reports to the Treasury Department. 638 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 4: One bank investigator was so concerned about Hunter Biden's financial 639 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 4: transactions with the Chinese company that he wanted to reevaluate 640 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 4: the bank's relationship with him. He noted that his transaction 641 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 4: served and I quote no current business purpose end quote. 642 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 4: That's what I call a shell company. According to Devin Archer, 643 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 4: a Biden family associate, Joe Biden was the brand of 644 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 4: the business. The brand showed up. Joe Biden spoke to 645 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 4: his son's associates by speaker phone over twenty times, dined 646 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 4: with foreign oligarchs and a Barisma executive, and had coffee 647 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 4: with his son's Chinese associate, all when he was Vice president. 648 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 4: Weeks after Joe Biden left the vice presidency, money from 649 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 4: this Chinese Communist Party linked entity began to make its 650 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 4: way to the bank accounts of several Biden family members. 651 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 4: Based on one Biden associate's interview with the FBI, these 652 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 4: payments were sent to the Bidens as a quote thank you. 653 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 4: Ask any Justice Department public corruption investigator about the importance 654 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 4: of payments received after one leaves public office. It's a 655 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 4: hallmark of corruption. We are now at a pivotal moment 656 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 4: in our investigation. We will soon depose and interview several 657 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 4: members of the Biden family and their associates about these 658 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 4: influenced peddling schemes. But we are facing obstruction from the 659 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 4: White House. The White House is seeking to block key 660 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 4: testimony from current and former White House staff.
