Speaker 1: This is a special edition of The Sean Hannity Show

14
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: America Trapped Behind Enemy Lines, Day number two sixteen Right

15
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: our two Sean Hannity Show, toll free. It's eight hundred

16
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: ninety four one Sean. If you want to be a

17
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: part of the program, so here. It is two years

18
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 1: too late. It was two weeks before the twenty twenty

19
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: election and the issue of Hunter Biden and his Laptop

20
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,839
Speaker 1: from Hell come out and the medium mob of course

21
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: the big biggest contributors to the Biden campaign. Oh, this

22
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: is this all Russian difference disinformation? Justa had I'll speak

23
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: live with Congressman Adam Schiff about a new probe into

24
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: a potential Russians information campaign targeting Joe Biden, and it's

25
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: on Hunter. But clearly the origins of this whole smear

26
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: are from the Kremlin, and the President is only too

27
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,839
Speaker 1: happy to have Kremlin help in trying to amplify it.

28
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: To say that there's no evidence that somehow these emails

29
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: and text messages or this hard drive is part of

30
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: a potentially a Russian disinformation campaign doesn't make any sense

31
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: to me. This looks like Russian intelligence, This walks like

32
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: Russian intelligence, This talks like Russian intelligence. We have no

33
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: idea whether or not the emails are legitimate, but this

34
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: whole operation looks right out of the Kremlin playbook. Hack

35
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: and dump, steal the information with a cyber attack, get

36
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: the emails from Hunter Biden's account, and then put them

37
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: on these laptops that are left at a repair store.

38
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: And that's how the information is now laundered into the public.

39
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 1: Who do you think is behind this? Well, the Russians

40
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: would be my number one guess if I had to guess.

41
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: All right, So John Solomon, editor in chief of justanews

42
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: dot com, Peter Schweitzer, they join us, John and I

43
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: saw your tweet. Great to see the New York Times

44
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: catch up to stories I reported long ago, actually two

45
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: years ago, over two years back. Then I was disparaged

46
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: as a conspiracy theorist for reporting this. It was true then,

47
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: and now that Hunter's Hunter Biden's work for foreign clients

48
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: raised serious legal issues, they covered it up. Then. Now

49
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: there has been this secret payment to the irs. But

50
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: it goes even deeper. All the countries we're now that

51
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: the most hostile that we should all be concerned about.

52
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: It looks like Zero Experience Hunter is making money from

53
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: the Russian oligarch first Lady of Moscow, former first Lady

54
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: of Moscow, you know, millions of dollars into the coffers

55
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: of the Biden family syndicate. We know all about Parisma,

56
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: zero Experience Hunter, Joe Biden leveraging a billion tax dollars.

57
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: We know about all these things, and we know because

58
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: of good reporting from people like Peter Schweitzer and John Solomon.

59
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: And then if you don't fire the prosecutor. Well, you're

60
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: not going to get the billion taxpayer dollars in son

61
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: of them be. They did it anyway, John and Peter,

62
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: good to have you back. John will start with you,

63
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: and I know you both have a lot to say

64
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: about this. First question I have is in retrospect, two

65
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: weeks before the election, if if the last name were Trump,

66
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: would the media have run wall to wall with this

67
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: for the two weeks leading into the election. I believe

68
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: they would, and I believe it would have negatively impacted

69
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. But that's my best guess, and I think

70
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: it's a fairly educated guess. Well, just take what they

71
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: did two two weeks before the twenty sixteen election when

72
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: they took Hillary Clinton's bogus Russia allegation and started reporting

73
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,799
Speaker 1: on it on the thirtieth and thirty first of October

74
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, with Harry Reid and Jake Sullivan and all

75
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: of those guys pushing that story out there. So we

76
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: know in an earlier time they did exactly that. The

77
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: media got pushed the story and they pursued it relentlessly.

78
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: But that's because it came from Democrats. It came from

79
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: Jake Sullivan. It came from Hillary Clinton, it came from

80
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: Glenn Simpson and Christopher Steele. When Rudy Giuliani tries to

81
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: do it because he's associated with conservatives and Republicans, it's

82
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: a conspiracy theory. It is a it's a Russian disinformation campaign.

83
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: I have not found a single person read into Russian

84
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: intelligence as it currently in the government who says that

85
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: they had even an iota of evidence that the laptop

86
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: was Russian disinformation. No one ever told that to anyone

87
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: an intelligence committee. So where did the media and all

88
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: those talking heads get it? I bet you we're going

89
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: to find out it came from the Biden campaign. But

90
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: it's good now, even two years later for the Americans

91
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: finally to get some truth from the New York Times.

92
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: I love what the New York Post said, Peter, what

93
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: they said. You gotta be blanking kidding me over the Oh.

94
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: Now the New York Times is going to acknowledge it.

95
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: By the way, where's the rest of the media. Where

96
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: was the apology, Where was the full retraction? Why was

97
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: it only mentioned on paragraph twenty three. I'm sure if

98
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: many other people notice that as I did, it looks

99
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: like they just you know, they get a pass. They

100
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: are supporting Biden, they hate Trump, You get a pass. Yeah, well,

101
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: we need to make sure they don't get a pass,

102
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: because John's right, they have worked very hard to cover

103
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: up this story. This New York Times piece, to me,

104
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: Sean smells like the Biden camp is very concerned. When

105
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: you read the piece, it really reads like it came

106
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: from Hunter Biden's attorneys. It says, you know, he paid

107
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: some of the taxes, and you know it's going to

108
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: be reluctant for prosecutors to want to throw somebody into

109
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: jail for very long because they've paid their taxes. And

110
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: then o't buy the way. In about the seventeenth paragraph,

111
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: we're going to acknowledge that the emails are real and accurate.

112
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're not going to get that from the

113
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: New York Times and these other outlets. We need to

114
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: keep holding them into account. You and I first talked

115
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: about Hunter Biden's foreign deals in early twenty eighteen. You

116
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: were the first one to cover it. Then John came

117
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: on with all of his excellent reporting, and none of

118
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: that has been debunked, none of that has been proven

119
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: to be incorrect. So the force and the movement of

120
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: truth is on our side. And I see the New

121
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: York Times piece as they are bracing themselves for an

122
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: indictment of Hunter Biden. And let's keep in mind, if

123
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: the laptop is true, as the New York Times now

124
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: acknowledges and admits, that means all the material on the

125
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: laptop about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden having having Intertwine's finances,

126
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: about Hunter Biden using this foreign money to pay his

127
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: dad's bills, not only to raise his national security questions,

128
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: it raises tax questions for Joe Biden as well, because

129
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: I'm pretty doubtful that he actually claimed any of the

130
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: money that Hunter was given him on his tax forms. So,

131
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: but it will also debunk Joe's lie that he knew

132
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: nothing about a son's foreign business dealings. You've been able

133
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: to report, John's been able to report that in fact,

134
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: not only well, first we have pictures of Joe Biden

135
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: with some of the farign business partners. Number one, number

136
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: two they went to dinner, and number three. I mean

137
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: there are emails that corroborate and confirm that Joe was

138
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: getting his cut. Yeah, that's right. John broke some very

139
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: early and important stories on Ukraine, the fact that Barhism

140
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: executives were getting meetings with Joe Biden. We know also

141
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: that there were now off the book's meetings with Chinese executives.

142
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: So the question now becomes how far are they going

143
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: to have to retreat? And I purposely and honestly believe

144
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: that this grand jury in Delaware, because I have a

145
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: lot of faith in the common sense of average Americans,

146
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: is going to indict Hunter Biden, and it's probably going

147
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: to be not just on the tax issues, but I

148
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: think also on money laundering and possibly the FAA violations.

149
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 1: And if that's the case, there are going to be

150
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: alarm bells going off. And then of course it gets

151
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: punted to a Merrick Garland in the Department of Justice,

152
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: and he's going to have to make tough choice if

153
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: he's going to cover up for the Biden family and

154
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: besmirch his reputation going forward, or whether he's going to

155
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: let this case proceed. If this case proceeds, I think

156
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: there are serious, serious problems for this president. I think

157
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: there's serious problems for the president. I mean, I guess

158
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: I could foresee him John maybe pardoning Hunter, but that

159
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: doesn't take away his culpability and liability and all this

160
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: doesn't no, and that would create an enormous scandal, the

161
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: president having to literally pardon his own son to get

162
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: him out of legal trouble. You know, one of the

163
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: things I have a story of today that I think

164
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: is really important, and it goes back to Peter's great book,

165
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: because it's clear from the beginning that the Biden team

166
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: knew what they were doing. They had knowledge of their

167
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: potential legal risk. And one of the best examples we

168
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: have two memos that come off the lap that we've

169
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: corroborated these memos with people who are involved in him.

170
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: The first is in as early as the spring of

171
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, when Hunter Biden's business partner, Devin Archer was

172
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: about was just indicted. They were telling Hunter Biden, hey, Bud,

173
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: you didn't pay any taxes on your Barisma Ukraine money.

174
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: Think about that. He takes hundreds of thousands of dollars

175
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: a year from Bresma and Ukraine. He doesn't pay taxes

176
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: on it. He's warned again in seventeen and eighteen. It

177
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,719
Speaker 1: looks like he doesn't pay that until much later when

178
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: he realizes he's in legal trouble. Second part, we always

179
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: heard about Farah during the Trump administration Foreign Agent Registration Act,

180
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: everyone was thinking about Paul Man of fort Rick Gates

181
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: well early on when they got the contract for Barisma.

182
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: One of the deliverables for Barrisma for Hunter Biden was

183
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: to influence federal agencies. He goes and gets his law

184
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: firm because he also has a job at this law firm,

185
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: and they come up with a plan how they're gonna

186
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: work the US Energy Department, the State Department of a Congress,

187
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: and they're talking about, you know, this is a fairer

188
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: covered activity. We've got to find a way not to register,

189
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: meaning to disguise or hide our foreign lobbying. Hunter Biden

190
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: is on all of those emails. Hunter Biden knew what

191
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 1: he was doing. And I think that's a very important point.

192
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 1: I think it goes to Peter's point that he's probably

193
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: about to face indictment. Quick break more with John Solomon

194
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: Peter Spitzer on the other side. Then your calls eight

195
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: hundred nine for one seawn a number on this Friday,

196
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: we continue, Yeah, oh it's all true. Everything about zero

197
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: experienced Hunter's laptop from hell. Oh. Now, finally two years later,

198
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: two years too late. Ye had never mind, we were wrong.

199
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: Where's the rest of the media acknowledging. Where's the apologies?

200
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: Nobody apologizes? You know, when you look at the countries

201
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: involved at the top level, China, Russia, Ukraine, I mean,

202
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: you can't even make it up considering where the world

203
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: is right now. I will tell you story, Peter, and

204
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: I think I've mentioned it to you on the air before,

205
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: and I know John is very aware of it. Is

206
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: I was told that there were things on this laptop,

207
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: things that both of you know that if it was

208
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: in my possession, even as a member of the press,

209
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: could put me in legal jeopardy, obviously having to do

210
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: with pictures in the age of the people that were

211
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: participating in the pictures or whatever. Has that ever fully

212
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: been vetted. I've never seen what that actual evidence is.

213
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I would want to technically see it.

214
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: But look, Hunter Biden in one of the but you

215
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: did hear about it? Yeah, absolutely, I did hear about it, Sean.

216
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: And remember Hunter Biden in one of these videos that

217
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: was released a few months ago, talking to that girl

218
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: that he's with, presumably a prostitute or somebody where he's

219
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: saying that he is potentially can be blackmailed by foreign

220
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: sources because his laptop is missing, so he himself acknowledges it.

221
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: I don't think you know, to underline the shot. I

222
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: don't think we can underestimate the pressure that the Biden

223
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: team is under right now, There's no way this story

224
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: would have been written. There's no way that The New

225
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: York Times would have admitted that the laptop was real,

226
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: except for the fact that he's going to be indicted.

227
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: He's going to be prosecuted, and those emails are going

228
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: to be part of the evidence that probably puts Hunter

229
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 1: Biden in jail. And this is a way for the

230
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: Biden team to try to manage expectations, to sort of

231
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: explain it away and hopefully get a minimum sense for Hunter,

232
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: and for the New York Times to be, in a

233
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: backhanded way, be able to say, six months from now

234
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: or never a trial, where to begin to say, look,

235
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: we did report on the laptops. We did it back

236
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: in March. That to me is the only reason that

237
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: this story has come out, and I think it's a

238
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: tremendous victory. You have been pushing this since twenty eighteen,

239
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 1: before anyone else. John with his work on Blue Star Strategies,

240
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: the Ukraine stuff, Hunter Biden, or the work that we've

241
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: gone on China. I think it's a real testament that

242
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: old journalism is dying. It's the new journalism that's interested

243
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: in just pursuing the truth. It's not just looking for

244
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: leaks from government officials like The New York Times seems

245
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: to be. That's the journalism of the future, and that's

246
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: why I'm very optimistic about what this story indicates. And

247
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: then we've got to cover up a big tech and

248
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: Facebook censoring on Twitter and censoring journalism. It impacts groups

249
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: publications like The Daily Beast, NBC News on numerous occasions.

250
00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: Ben Rhodes, MSDNC writer Chip Franklin, Washington Post columnists. You

251
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: have a humpty dumpty, Wolfy Blitzer, a Morning Joe regular contributor,

252
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people. Now, I don't see many retractions, apologies,

253
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: or any admissions of wrongdoing on their part because the

254
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: reality is it was a big contribution to Joe Biden,

255
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: and I would argue if it was Trump, it would

256
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: have been handled so much differently. John will give it

257
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: the last word. Well, listen, there's a statement put out

258
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: by Joe Biden in the spring and summer of twenty nineteen,

259
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: where both Peter Schweitzer and I were called conspiracy Ferris.

260
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: Peter Schweitzer's books are so perfectly researched, there's a footnote

261
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: for every fact. He's never been challenged once because his

262
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: research is impeccable. Somebody has to hold Joe Biden accountable

263
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: for trying to smear people who actually told the truth.

264
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: They did it all through the Russia campaign, they did

265
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: it all through the twenty twenty campaign. At some point

266
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: there needs to be accountability to the people who spread

267
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: the lives and those who use their media organizations to

268
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: augment them. And I hope that's the ultimate outcome of this,

269
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: when the Hunter Biden indictment finally comes down. John Solomon,

270
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: editor in chief, Justinnews dot Com. Peter Schweitzer, by the way,

271
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: how many how many weeks in a row? Is your

272
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: book red Handed? How the how American elites get rich

273
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: helping China win? How many weeks at number one? We've

274
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: been five weeks at number one. I'm very thankful Sean

275
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: for your support and you're helping. Really people would not

276
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: know who Hunter Biden is today were it not for

277
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: the heavy work that you did with me and that

278
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: John's done back into You guys did the heavy lifting,

279
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: you did the investigative reporting, you did the research, you

280
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: did the digging. You you told the truth. And it's

281
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: only my pleasure to be able to get this information

282
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: to this great audience of mine. Thank you both. Peter Schweitzer,

283
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: thank you, John Solomon, Thank you. Another vindication. Just like

284
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: the Russian hoax and the conspiracy theories Russia, Russia, Russia,

285
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: the media gets away with it again and again and again,

286
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: but by the way, nobody trusts them anymore. Quick break

287
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: right back
