1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: All right, our two Sean Hannity Show.

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,000
Speaker 2: Glad you're with us, eight hundred and ninety four to one, Shawn,

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: if you want to be a part of the program.

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:09,480
Speaker 1: If you are just joining us.

5
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 2: We have a thirty seven count indictment against Donald Trump

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 2: that has been unsealed. Thirty one counts of wilful retention

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 2: and national defense information. I've gone over this one obstruction case,

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 2: one count withholding a document, one count corruptly concealing a

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: document or a record, one count concealing a document, and

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: a federal investigation, one count to scheme to conceal one

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 2: count of false statements of representations alleging Trump showed classified

12
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: documents to people in twenty twenty one, also as executive assistant.

13
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: Apparently a valet was also charged, and it goes on

14
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: and on from there. Now, Jack Smith made a statement

15
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: but really stood out in my mind as he said,

16
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: you know, any violation of our national defense information, it's

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: critical to the safety and security of this country and

18
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 2: must be in for. He said, violations of those laws

19
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 2: put our country at risk. Adherence to the rule of

20
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: Laws of Bedrock, principle of the Department of Justice in

21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: our nation's commitment to the rule of law. You know,

22
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: it sets an example for the world. And we have

23
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: one set of laws in this country and they apply

24
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: to everyone. And then, of course I took you back

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: in time and James Comy's twenty July twenty sixteen press

26
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 2: conference when he said, from the group of thirty thousand emails,

27
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: by the way, not factoring in the thirty three thousand

28
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 2: emails deleted with bleach bit, the devices destroyed by hammers

29
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 2: and cards removed anyway, Comy goes on to say, those

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 2: thirty thousand that they did have, Hillary Clinton had one

31
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: hundred and ten emails, fifty two email chains that have

32
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: been determined by owning the owning agency to contain classified

33
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 2: information at the time they were sent or received. Eight

34
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: of those chains contained information that was top secret, thirty

35
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: six of the chains contained secret information at the time,

36
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: and he contained confidential information. Huh wait a minute, I

37
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 2: just read Jack Smith said we have one set of

38
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: laws in this country, and they applied everybody. And then

39
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: I played, you know, other statements by James cole Mey

40
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 2: when he went before Congress two days later and admitted

41
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 2: that Hillary instructed Jake Sullivan to remove classified markings so

42
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: that he could fax a classified document and then call me.

43
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: Testified that ten people had access to Hillary's servers, and

44
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: Hillary's lawyers went through the emails, none of whom had

45
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 2: any security clearances.

46
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: Oh, it sounds very similar to me.

47
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: So let's see, we have one set of laws in

48
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 2: this country, and they applied everyone. Oh apparently not, by

49
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: the way the New York Times just revealed. You want

50
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: to talk about a fascinating detail in all of this. Obviously,

51
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: the plan was for Jack Smith to try this the

52
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: whole time in Washington, D C. And ultimately they started

53
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: to figure out that the jurisdiction really belonged to Miami

54
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: and the Southern District of Miami. And anyway, the New

55
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: York Times is reporting that the Florida grand jury, which

56
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: handed down the indictments on Donald Trump last night, never

57
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: heard in person testimony from most of the witnesses in

58
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: this case, the overwhelming majority of in person testimony that

59
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: was delivered to the Washington D C.

60
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: Grand Jury.

61
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 2: And then Jack Smith, realizing last month that the case

62
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 2: needed to be brought to Florida, all they did was

63
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: transcribed to Washington testimony and read it back to the

64
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: Florida grand jury. Now, now you get indta haam sandwich

65
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: before a grand jury. But you know, for the overwhelming

66
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: majority of witnesses, any judgment about their credibility, what about

67
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: hearing it directly from them? Their body language, their facial expressions,

68
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: their voice inflections, their tone, their cadence was never available

69
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 2: to the Florida grand jurors. Wow, that's pretty interesting side

70
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 2: note anyway, joining us now, author of the best selling

71
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 2: book Trial of the Century, Greg Jared is with us

72
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 2: along with David Shoon, who was former President Trump's attorney.

73
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 2: Welcome both of you. Let's get your initial impressions of

74
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: the indictment.

75
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett, Greg, are you there?

76
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 3: Former president are ugly? You know, the attorney general of

77
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 3: the likely Democratic nominee bringing charges against the leading Republican candidate.

78
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 3: You know, Sean, is this really in the interests of justice,

79
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 3: which is the foremost consideration before bringing charges? You know,

80
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 3: both candidates had allegedly classified documents. Yet the person in

81
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 3: power is not charged, but his opponent is. Now, I

82
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 3: mean I have read through the indictment. It is redundant

83
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 3: in the extreme. It's otherwise known as count stacking. The

84
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: photographs contained within are inflammatory, they're not remotely relevant to proof,

85
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 3: and the indictment is long on broad condemnation, short on specifics,

86
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 3: which by itself is.

87
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: I think we're losing Greg here. Let's see if we

88
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 2: can reconnect with him, David Shollan, let's get your take.

89
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 4: Well, it's a clever attempt, but it's a very sick document.

90
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 4: Quite frankly, I say it's clever because as as predicted,

91
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 4: they charged under seven ninety three E, which doesn't require

92
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 4: them now to deal with the whole idea of classified

93
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 4: or did the president declassify them properly and so on.

94
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 4: It just requires it to be national defense information, which

95
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 4: is very broadly construed. But then they have to prove

96
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 4: that he did.

97
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 2: That's eighteen US Code seven ninety three what paragraph.

98
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 4: Little E in parentheses, And they'd still have to prove

99
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 4: that he willfully did it knowing that it was prohibited

100
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 4: by law to retain these things. So this is why

101
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 4: I've said, if they're going to prosecute President Trump under

102
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 4: this theory, they absolutely must prosecute Joe Biden because of

103
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 4: the hundreds of documents that he retained. You can be

104
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 4: sure as broadly as national defense information is construed that

105
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 4: his documents contain national defense information. Unlike Donald Trump, the businessman,

106
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 4: Joe Biden knew exactly what he could retain and not

107
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 4: retain after decades in the government. So he certainly, on

108
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 4: the face of it, ought to be charged with seven

109
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 4: ninety three E if this is a government theory. But

110
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 4: I say it's sticks because this is a speaking indictment.

111
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 4: They tell a whole narrative of mayor referring to so

112
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 4: called classified documents and so unknowing that they don't have

113
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 4: to charge under this charge classified documents. But it's all

114
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 4: for public consumption. And I'll tell you this about this.

115
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 4: Jack Smith's speech today, especially as you focused on we

116
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 4: have one set of laws for everyone, it reminded me

117
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 4: of a que line for Queen Gertrude and Hamlet when

118
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 4: she said the lady does protest too much. Methinks to

119
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 4: particularly insincere character. This guy Smith knows that the public

120
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 4: is thinking, at least half the country is cynical about

121
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 4: this and thinking, how can it possibly be It didn't

122
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 4: prosecute Hillary Clinton, You're not going after Joe Biden so far,

123
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 4: and you're going to bring this against the president and

124
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 4: thickest of all, maybe is using the witness Tampering Statute

125
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 4: section fifteen twelve for this. They had a concealing or

126
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 4: corruptly concealing government documents charge under the Government Documents Statute

127
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 4: twenty seventy one, but they chose something to use it

128
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 4: for mob prosecution. They're alleging the President Trump corruptly advised

129
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 4: people directing people to conceal documents. You're gonna see witnesses,

130
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: I think, who are going to be the.

131
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 5: Lawyers in this case.

132
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 4: We're going to say quite the opposite that he told them.

133
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 4: Cooperate fully.

134
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: Let's bringing back Greg Jarrett and get your take on

135
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: all this.

136
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 6: I agree with everything that I heard David say. You know,

137
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 6: it's easy to render an indictment and make these broad

138
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 6: condemnations providing specifics in supportive crime. That's dramatically different. And

139
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 6: so you know, just poking apart some of it moving

140
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 6: documents around, all right, So what that's not a crime,

141
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 6: especially if you honestly believe they're your documents. They belong

142
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 6: to you under the Presidential Records Act. And so then

143
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 6: it says, oh, we're in different rooms. Well, so what

144
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 6: they say he didn't notify this acret service. He doesn't

145
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 6: have to were any of these documents destroyed or altered? Well,

146
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 6: it doesn't say the charges state that documents were classified.

147
00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 6: That is an assumption that Trump vigorously denies. So, you know,

148
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 6: indictments make these one sided pronouncement errators that, in the

149
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 6: end and my experience, are not always supported by facts

150
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 6: and evidence. Prosecutors brought erroneous conclusions they interpret innocent acts

151
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 6: is if various and criminal, when in the end they're shown.

152
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 5: Not to be.

153
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: Well, Greg, let me follow up on that.

154
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: They seem to the Special Council seems to be relying

155
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 2: on varying tapes to prove his point that a he

156
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 2: knew it wasn't declassified, couldn't show people. I'm not so

157
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 2: sure that's going to be the slam dunk that they

158
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 2: think it is. You know, if the president ever testified

159
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,599
Speaker 2: in his own case, he could say, yeah, I just

160
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 2: didn't want to share it with this individual or that individual,

161
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: but I had declassified. It was my way of saying,

162
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 2: you know what, I think it's best not to share

163
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 2: this with somebody.

164
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 6: Yes, it could be that, but if it is, if

165
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 6: I remember Trump's main defense that the Presidential Records Act

166
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 6: in the right under law to maintain custody and control

167
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 6: of presidential papers, whether they're classified or not. You know,

168
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 6: that's the governing statue. It is civil, it's not criminal.

169
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 6: And for more than a decade, good Justice Department agreed

170
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 6: with that. That became the DOJ's own established standard. They

171
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 6: even argued it in federal court of the Bill Clinton case,

172
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 6: stating emphatically Bill Clinton is entitled to keep whatever he

173
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 6: wants after leaving office, including those classified tapes.

174
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 2: Well, you know, David, let me let me ask you

175
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 2: this because as we look at this, and I'm sure

176
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: this is going to unfold, you know, we have a

177
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: we're in the middle really of the beginnings of a

178
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 2: presidential election cycle. We've been through two cycles now where

179
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 2: the Department of Justice, through the FBI, have you know,

180
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: put cinder blocks on the scales of presidential elections. Is

181
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 2: this a third time that we're looking out possibly here?

182
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 4: Oh? Absolutely, And you know you made the point about

183
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 4: switching grand jury's They clearly wanted to get this out here,

184
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 4: try to shut down President Trump quickly. If anything, this

185
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 4: action misconduct had set for version of justice or to

186
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 4: encourage people to use the ballot box as their safety valve.

187
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 4: You know, the point you made also about the grand

188
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 4: jury is important because it's supposed to be a grand

189
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 4: jury investigation, meaning grand jurors have the opportunity to ask

190
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 4: questions to witnesses. That can't happen if you don't have

191
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 4: the witnesses their lives. And you know, Greg alluded to

192
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: this Bill Clinton situation. He's spoken before about this twenty

193
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 4: twelve case. This is where the double standard might come

194
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 4: back to bite them, because that was just a judge

195
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 4: amy Byrman Jackson, a real Trump hater who's spoken strongly

196
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 4: about President Trump. But in that case, Bill Clinton's actions

197
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 4: were an issue, just very strong language in there.

198
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you, you're right about grand jurors

199
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 2: having the right to ask questions.

200
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: The fact that uh.

201
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 2: They used one grand jury, not the one in Florida

202
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 2: that ended up in dieting, could that be a possible dismissal.

203
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 4: It'll be an issue to be raised, But almost all

204
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 4: grand jury misconduct, you know, very difficult to challenge almost

205
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 4: all of it now after Supreme Court case Nova Scotia Bank.

206
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 4: But anyway, it's difficult to challenge. They should raise they

207
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 4: should raise every issue and that's why it's critically important

208
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: that President Trump has real criminal defense lawyers who have

209
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: earned that badge.

210
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 2: Well, well, both those attorneys that resigned today, what do

211
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 2: you make of that?

212
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 4: Well, you know, I think we know from some previous

213
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 4: press probably you know why why they resigned in part.

214
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 4: But I'll say this, the fine lawyers, they were brought

215
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 4: initially because of their Justice Department experience as liaisons with

216
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 4: the Justice Department, along with every Cortoran. John Rally was

217
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 4: brought in by every Corkoran, Jim Trusty. Actually, you know,

218
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 4: President Trump saw on Fox News and was impressed with

219
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 4: and they served that well, they were able to they

220
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 4: were able to pierce h attorney client privilege in this case.

221
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 2: They were able to appear executive privilege in this case.

222
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lot of privilege that was not

223
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 2: that was exerted here. Surprisingly, So of my view.

224
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, executive privilege. By the way, I don't mean to

225
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 4: cut off Breagny. Executive privilege could well raise its head

226
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 4: again in this case. In a number of ways. This

227
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 4: is a very very very defensible case. But you've got

228
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 4: to be creative here and really know what you're doing

229
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 4: and raising every.

230
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,359
Speaker 1: Issue all right, last word, Greg Jarrett.

231
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 6: I think this is a classic case of selective prosecution.

232
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 6: And you know, I don't know how Merrick Garland justifies it.

233
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 6: You know, Hillary Clinton case, she wasn't a former president,

234
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 6: she knowingly kept classified documents in her home. No charges brought,

235
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 6: not to mention, obstruction of justice, destroying evidence under subpoena.

236
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 6: It's pretty clear what's happening here. Garland is interfering in

237
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 6: a presidential election. I think he's trying to knock out

238
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 6: his boss's opponent with manufactured charges while at the same

239
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 6: time working overtime to protect Biden in his bribery and

240
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 6: influence peddling scandals. Here, Sean, this is not just unequal

241
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 6: application of the law. It seems like crooked justice.

242
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Greg Jarrett and David Chow and thank

243
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 2: you both. Eight hundred nine four one Seawan.

244
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: Breaking news all afternoon. When you get off.

Speaker 6: miss during the day.

247
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: This is the Sean Hannity Show.

248
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 2: Hi twenty five to the top of the hour, eight

249
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: hundred and nine to four one, Sean. If you want

250
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: to be a part of the program, our friend Peter

251
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 2: Sweitzer will be joining us along with Eric Eggers of

252
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 2: the Government Accountability Institute. Look, I want to remind you

253
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: can do a lot of your firearm training using the great, incredible,

254
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 2: military grade technology that is called Mantis X. All the

255
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 2: best shooters in the world do a majority of their

256
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: training doing dry fire practice at home. Now the Mantis

257
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: X Firearms Training System. It's a no AMMO all electronic

258
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 2: way to practice and improve your shooting accuracy. You simply

259
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: attach it to your own firearm and you can use

260
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: it at home at the range. You can do with

261
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 2: friends and family and neighbors. You all have a great time.

262
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 2: It's a lot of fun, but it also gives you

263
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 2: data driven, real time feedback on your technique. It'll guide

264
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: you through drills and courses and ninety four percent of

265
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 2: shooters improved within twenty minutes of using Mantis X. Mantis

266
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 2: X is used by the Marine Corps, by the Special Forces.

267
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: It's basically what you're getting is military grade technology and

268
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: it's all at a very very affordable price. Mantis X,

269
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 2: by the way, is improved Linda's shooting dramatically. I mean

270
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 2: she couldn't shoot at all. She couldn't hit the side

271
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: of a barn for crying out loud.

272
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: That is fake news. That is true. You scored a nine.

273
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: That's like aiming at a barn missing it. I am

274
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: ready to pay homage to Biden's balloon with my mantisone. Okay,

275
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: here we go. We have.

276
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: By the way, you lost a big time in our

277
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 2: poll anyway, so but you're gonna love it. It's like

278
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: having your own personal firearms trainer right next to you

279
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 2: and it works. And if you believe in your Second

280
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 2: Amendment rights, you should act on your Second Amendment responsibility

281
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 2: to be competent and confident in your shooting ability. Anyway,

282
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 2: Just go to mantisx dot com. That's m a ntisx

283
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: dot com. We got into this yesterday and we mentioned it,

284
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 2: you know, all throughout the last hour as well, because

285
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: this we have to compare and contrast, you know, the

286
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 2: very issues that are real in terms of a double

287
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 2: standard and a dual justice system, and we have one

288
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 2: in this country unfortunately. You know, we know that Hillary

289
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 2: Clinton mishandled top secret classified information on her service.

290
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: We know that that happened.

291
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 2: We know that she deleted thirty three thousand subpoena emails.

292
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: We know that devices that likely had those emails on

293
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: them were destroyed with hammers, and we know that sim

294
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: cards were removed, you know. And then we know in

295
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,719
Speaker 2: the case, you know, Jim Comey says no reasonable prosecutor

296
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: would prosecute. And when it comes to you know, Trump,

297
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 2: he faces multiple charges and raids of mar a lago. Meanwhile,

298
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 2: Biden can store a similar you know, documents in boxes

299
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 2: in his wide open garage right next to his precious Corvette.

300
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 2: Nobody seems to care. Never mind the pen Biden Center,

301
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 2: never mind the University of Delaware, never mind the Delaware

302
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 2: Beach Home, you know. And then we can't forget about

303
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 2: the twenty sixteen allegations of bribery against Joe Biden, you know, finally,

304
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 2: waiting till the very last minute, Christoph Peray just bought

305
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 2: all he could until he was about to be held

306
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 2: in contempt at Congress. And the result is, oh well,

307
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 2: now I'll share with the House Intelligence I'm sorry, the

308
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 2: House Government Reform Committee, this allegation on a ten twenty

309
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 2: three form by a informant that apparently was trusted well

310
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 2: trusted by the FBI, a confidential human source. The source

311
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 2: detail conversations with a Barisma executive to the FBI. The

312
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 2: executive reportedly referred to Hunter as dumb, but quote had

313
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 2: to pay the Bidens because the Ukrainian prosecutor, Victor Shokin

314
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 2: was investigating Barisma and it would be difficult, you know,

315
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 2: to enter the US market in the midst of that investigation.

316
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: That's the very same Ukrainian prosecutor that Biden ultimately forced out.

317
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 2: This source is claiming that a five million dollar payout

318
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 2: was directed to Joe Biden, another five million payment to

319
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden and the FBI has had this document since

320
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, and the question is why haven't they done

321
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 2: anything about it? These were not direct payments. This goes

322
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 2: into the heart of what we learned through the Suspicious

323
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 2: Activity reports with Comerce Committee, some one hundred and seventy

324
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 2: of them. This is the numerous shell corporations they set

325
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 2: up to funnel moneys through that eventually, according to James

326
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 2: comer got funneled to not one, but nine different Biden

327
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: family members, including their grandchildren. Show those grandchildren were working

328
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 2: very hard for that money for you know, company for

329
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 2: countries like China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, et cetera. Anyway, But

330
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 2: These are very specific allegations made by a confidential human

331
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 2: source who has worked with the FBI for years. The

332
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 2: in fact, the FBI has even paid this guy one

333
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of dollars for some of his previous

334
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 2: intelligence and as we as far as we know, the

335
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 2: DOJ has not done a thing to pursue a case

336
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: against Joe Biden. Or the implication that you know, Hunter

337
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: whining on his own laptop that half of his income

338
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 2: goes to Pops, or winding that he has to pay

339
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: for Pops' home repairs with the money that he makes,

340
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 2: basically making money off his papa's name. Joining us now

341
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 2: is Peter Schweizer and Eric Agers, both with the Government

342
00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 2: Accountability Institute.

343
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: Welcome both of you to the program.

344
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 2: In light Peter, of all of what happened yesterday and

345
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 2: what we expect to happen on Tuesday, you know, we've

346
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 2: got to look at do we have in this country

347
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 2: equal justice under the law and equal application of our laws.

348
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: So do we have a dual justice system?

349
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 5: Well, it was very clear we have a dual justice system. Sean.

350
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 5: You know what I've learned, and if you look at

351
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 5: American history, when you're looking at political corruption or criminal activity.

352
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 5: There's that phrase, follow the money, whether it's Tammany Hall,

353
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 5: whether it's Watergate. That's always been the guiding principle. What

354
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 5: you have in the case of the Bidens is the actual,

355
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 5: irrefutable transference of money from foreign entities to the Bidens,

356
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 5: and there's no discernible service that was done for that

357
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 5: transfer of that money. What you have in this FBI

358
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 5: informed source is a specific, clear claim of a transfer

359
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 5: of additional money to the Bidens by a foreign entity.

360
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 5: And look at what the FBI has done here. First,

361
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 5: when this document was brought to the attention the FBI

362
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,880
Speaker 5: by the OVERSIGHTE Committee, the FBI denied that the document

363
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 5: even existed. Then they finally acknowledged that it existed, but said, no,

364
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 5: we can't turn it over because you know, we need

365
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 5: to protect sources that has not bothered them in cases

366
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 5: in the past. So there is a clear inconsistency here

367
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 5: on a massive scale. If you go back to the

368
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,360
Speaker 5: Russia collusion case, which of course was a sham, there

369
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 5: was no evidence anytime that there was transference of money

370
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,959
Speaker 5: because there was no money that was ever shifted. In

371
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 5: the case of the Bidens, we now know tens of

372
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 5: millions of dollars have flowed to them, and yet the

373
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 5: FBI received this information from this confidential source, and it

374
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 5: seems pretty clear they didn't even share it with the

375
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 5: Department of Justice saying hey, this needs to be looked in,

376
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 5: this needs to be further investigated. It's really really stunning,

377
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 5: and I hope that the Committee continues to push bard

378
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 5: on this and to bring forth witnesses to find out

379
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 5: what is actually going on at FBI headquarters.

380
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 2: How long have you known about this particular allegation, this

381
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 2: specific allegation.

382
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 5: Well, the specific allegation as it regards Ukraine goes back

383
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 5: numerous years. The existence of this document is relatively new

384
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 5: to me. But here's the power of it, Sean. This

385
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 5: document is completely consistent with other reporting that we know

386
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 5: about Ukraine. We know that how did Hunter Biden get

387
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 5: the job at Barisma. He got it four weeks after

388
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 5: his father was appointed by Barack Obama as the point

389
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 5: person on US policy towards Ukraine. In other words, he's

390
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 5: the guy that's going to make the decisions about who's

391
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 5: getting aid money, what our apologies, our policies are going

392
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 5: to be, on energy policy, et cetera, et cetera. So

393
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 5: we know that Hunter got it four weeks after his

394
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 5: dad was appointed. He had no skills, no qualifications. We

395
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 5: know that he was getting a million dollars a year.

396
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 5: We know based on the laptop that meetings were set

397
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 5: up between Barisma officials to meet with Joe Biden, vice

398
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 5: President of the United States. And now you have a

399
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 5: document that says five million dollars were sent to Joe

400
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 5: Biden to Hunter Biden in exchange for a favor. Those

401
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 5: are not inconsistent. If this document had occurred and we

402
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 5: didn't know any of the other stuff, I'd be kind

403
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 5: of suspicious because there's no supporting evidence. But it corroborates

404
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 5: perfectly what we already know is part of the public record,

405
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 5: and that's why I think it's so powerful.

406
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: Eric, let's get your take. Do you see it the

407
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: same way.

408
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 7: Absolutely. It's not as if everyone was surprised to learn

409
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 7: that there's a possibility that the Bidens were being bribed

410
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 7: by corrupt third world oldiguards in exchange her favors from

411
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 7: the then vice president of the United States. This is

412
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 7: exactly consistent with everything that's been reported that we've reported,

413
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 7: and that the trail of information of the last five

414
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 7: years has continued to point to you. I would say, Sean,

415
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 7: the mount of even is so big even Linda couldn't

416
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 7: miss it with a shotgun. But I wouldn't go there.

417
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: Surprised.

418
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 2: There was a time before Mantox that she couldn't hit

419
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 2: the side of a barn.

420
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 7: But I would say that the good news is that

421
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 7: I think the House Republicans have made a little bit

422
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 7: more precise with their aim when they're clearly diligent and

423
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 7: persistent in their efforts, and that's one of the reasons

424
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 7: why I think we should be I think encouraged. I

425
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 7: know people get so tired of hearing more Hunter Biden

426
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 7: news and they want to know, but when will anyone

427
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 7: be arrested? When will anything actually come? If the justice

428
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 7: system and the law enforcement are so corrupt, have they

429
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 7: got away with it? And they're certainly right to think that,

430
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 7: because to Peter's point and to your point, we do

431
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 7: have two systems of justice. If Donald Trump is being

432
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 7: indicted next week over allegations that he had you know,

433
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 7: mishandled a classified documents, but we now have known for

434
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,679
Speaker 7: five plus years it was less that Joe Biden's been

435
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,199
Speaker 7: rived by Ukraine and he knows that they were bribing

436
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 7: is done, and the timing of his appointment to the

437
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 7: Board of PRISM is consistent with the timing of his

438
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 7: appointment to this joint venture with China. I mean, everyone

439
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 7: knows this is how you do business with the bidens

440
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 7: you pay Hunter to get to Joe, and how Republicans

441
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 7: continue to give piece of evidence after piece of evidence

442
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 7: is so no, and here's where the money was, and

443
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 7: here's the relationship. I think that the penas matter, and

444
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 7: the fact that they can say, hey, Chris Ray, you're

445
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 7: going to be held in contempt unless you give us

446
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,679
Speaker 7: that document that matters too. So that's one reason I think.

447
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 5: We should be encouraged.

448
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 7: We'll continue to get more information eventually, you know, unlike

449
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 7: what happened in twenty twenty when big Tech and the

450
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 7: f guy was able to collude to suppressed the information.

451
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 7: He now has this information to Americans will be able

452
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 7: to make an informed choice at the botot boxing point twenty.

453
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 2: Four quick break more with Peter Schweitzer and Eric Egers

454
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 2: there with the Government Accountability Institute. More of their take

455
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 2: on the other side. Eight hundred nine point one, Shawn,

456
00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 2: when we get to your calls. As we continue.

457
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 6: The final hour of the Sean Hannity Show was up next,

458
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 6: hang on for Shawn's conservative solutions.

459
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 2: All right, we continue now with the government accountability institutes,

460
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 2: Peter Schweitzer and Eric Eggers with us people now don't

461
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 2: believe there's equal justice now. It's what's interesting about the

462
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 2: timing of all of this is we have two ongoing

463
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 2: House investigations won by the House Judiciary Committee, and that's

464
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 2: by Jim Jordan, looking into whether the DOJ has been

465
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,199
Speaker 2: weaponized and the FBI has been politicized. I think the

466
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 2: answer to both is absolutely. I do believe that the

467
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: Republican effort now moving forward to defund the FBI is

468
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 2: a real effort. I think the fact that they're planning

469
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 2: to build a new FBI headquarters twice the size of

470
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 2: the Pentagon is not going to happen if Republicans win elections,

471
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 2: then not going to allow that to be paid for.

472
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 2: And I think there's got to be a top to

473
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 2: bottom analysis of what the hell is going on there,

474
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 2: considering they have put their cinderblocks on the scales of

475
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: not one, not two, but now it's looking like even

476
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: three presidential elections.

477
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, Sean, You're absolutely right. And Leu's remember when

478
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 5: Jim Comey gave that press conference, is that no reasonable

479
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 5: prosecutor would would prosecute his case. He was completely out

480
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 5: of line. That's not the role of an FBI director.

481
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 5: The FBI is supposed to investigate, turn it over GoJ prosecutors.

482
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 5: They are supposed to make the decision. The fact that

483
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 5: the FBI director was giving his quote unquote legal opinion

484
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 5: about prosecuting the case was completely out of line. Plus

485
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,959
Speaker 5: the fact that remember how those documents were handled. Hillary

486
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 5: Clinton had this private server, she had a private email count,

487
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 5: she was doing official business on that email account, transferring

488
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 5: classified documents, and then when this was pointed out, they

489
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 5: didn't go in. The FBI didn't go in and seize

490
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 5: that material. Hillary Clinton and her lawyer said they went

491
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 5: through the emails and decided which ones were classified official

492
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 5: and which ones were personal. That again, is completely out

493
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 5: of line. The large issue here is that we are finally,

494
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 5: I think, turning the corner on recognizing the role that

495
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 5: FBI senior leadership because I distinguished them from the rank

496
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 5: and FILEI employees, who I think are very diligent. The

497
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 5: FBI leadership has tipped the scales. They are playing a

498
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 5: political game, and I think that has now been acknowledged.

499
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 5: And if you look at the decline of trust in

500
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 5: American institutions, whether it's the media, is at an all

501
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 5: time low, Congress very very low. Very few institutions have

502
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 5: fallen as hard and as far as the FBI. That's

503
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 5: a terrible thing. But it's been brought about because of

504
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 5: the leadership of the FBI and the fact that they

505
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: have been cozy with the political establishment. And one of

506
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 5: the things we honestly ought to start looking at, Sean

507
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 5: is moving FBI headquarters outside of Washington, DC. Something seems

508
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 5: to happen to people when they move into that building,

509
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 5: they become part of the political culture in DC. That

510
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 5: turns them into political animals. That happened with j Edgar Hoover,

511
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 5: it's happening today. So I say, let's move the FBI

512
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 5: somewhere out of Washington, DC so they can function as

513
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 5: the law enforcement intelligence agency they're supposed to be, rather

514
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 5: than this political institution.

515
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, last word, Eric, we got about thirty seconds.

516
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 7: No, I think it was out of that and I

517
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 7: think it's important to just kind of step back and

518
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 7: have perspective on it. It shouldn't be, okay. I foreign

519
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 7: entities are about to pay the family of the then

520
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 7: vice president and still pay the family of the president,

521
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 7: not the least of which it's coming them our greatest

522
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 7: year political threat. It sham be okay that are launchforcement

523
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 7: like the FBI are able to decide which information is

524
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 7: depressed and which investigations to pursue as a late to

525
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 7: presidential candidates. But that's the coxact of the world we've

526
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 7: lived in, and that's one of the reasons why it's

527
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 7: so important that you being.

528
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 3: To highlight it.

529
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 7: But I think it's important that people to keep a

530
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 7: skid tike your perspective on this. None of this is okay,

531
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 7: and I'm glad the how the Republicans are doing something

532
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 7: about it.

533
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 2: All right, we appreciate you both, Peter Schweitzer and Eric

534
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 2: Egers with the Government Accountability Institute. Honestly, they're way ahead

535
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,239
Speaker 2: of the curve. Twenty eighteen Secret Empire has launched right

536
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 2: here on this radio show, at my TV show. Now

537
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 2: you know, here we are all these years later, and

538
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 2: Congress is finally catching up with them. The wheels of

539
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 2: government and justice move ever so slowly, unless your name

540
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 2: is Trump, then they move at the speed of light. Anyway,

541
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 2: Thank you both, eight hundred and ninety four one Sean.

542
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 2: If you want to be a part of the program.

543
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 2: Our friends at the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, they deliver

544
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: on their promise every day to do good. Never forget

545
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 2: the sack prifices of America's greatest heroes what they have

546
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 2: done for US heroes like Marine Corps Corporal Seth Rasmussen.

547
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: Now.

548
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 2: Seth was one of five Marines killed in a training

549
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 2: accident when his Osprey aircraft crashed in California was only

550
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 2: twenty one years old. He survived by his wife and

551
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 2: his high school sweetheart, Avery and their infant son.

552
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 3: Now.

553
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: Tunnel to Towers reached out to Avery within days of

554
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 2: Seth's death to tell her she would receive a mortgage

555
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: free home. Avery did not have to worry about where

556
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 2: she and her son were going to live or how

557
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 2: she would pay for it. Because of the financial security

558
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,719
Speaker 2: and the support provided by the Tunnel to Towers. They

559
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 2: have helped over one thousand military and first responder families

560
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 2: navigate the worst times by removing the burden of a

561
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: mortgage payment, so they only can do it with your generosity.

562
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 1: They're not getting government money.

563
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: They're asking all of us please join us here at

564
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,840
