So later 72 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: on in the program, at the top of the next hour, 73 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: we're going to have FPI whistleblower Garrett boy oh Boyle 74 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: rather testifying about the weaponization of our own government against 75 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 1: the people and also the retribution that whistleblowers have been receiving, 76 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: like himself, which is so sad. People that serve in 77 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: our FBI and how they've been mistreated. And remember the witnesses. 78 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: This week, Marcus Allen, the FBI whistleblower, Garrett O'Boyle will 79 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: join us in a little bit. Steve Friend who joined 80 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: us on the program yesterday, Representative Kat Camick and Matt 81 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: Gates and Jim Jordan. They did a great job. And 82 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: what he said is I never swore an oath to 83 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: the FBI. I swore an oath to the Constitution. And 84 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: the he said, the smear campaign as disgusting as it is, 85 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: it's it's unsurprising despite our oath to uphold the Constitution. 86 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: So he's a whistleblower. He comes out, he says, all 87 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: of this, and to what end that what he now 88 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: is in a position being suspended from the FBI. He 89 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: can't get a job. You know, they've they've set up 90 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: a a it's not go fund. What is the other 91 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: one that they set. 92 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 2: Up give sen go. 93 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: We got to gives go. 94 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: It's on Hannity dot Com, right the guy. 95 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: The guy doesn't have money to feed his family. And 96 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: here's the other downside. They don't pay him. They suspend him, 97 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: and then he can't go out and get another job 98 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: because the other rules that they have that only allow 99 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 1: him to make SEP seventy five hundred dollars. It's insane, 100 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: you know, he's he's and he's pointing out these guys 101 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: that are all whistleblowers. They're given up a lot in 102 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: the process to expose how corrupt and politicized and weaponized 103 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 1: our FBI and DOJ. They've given up a lot. And 104 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: he even said it's up to members of this committee, 105 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: current former FBI employees, and indeed all Americans to ensure 106 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: that the weaponization of our own government against the people 107 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,679 Speaker 1: comes to an end, no matter what the personal cost. 108 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean, he's doing this at a great personal price. 109 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: And the guy's got three kids for crying out loud, 110 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: and the safeguards in place that the FBI are inadequate 111 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: and must be reworked to protect whistleblowers and others who 112 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: are inappropriately targeted. Now we have whistleblower protection laws, but 113 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: they're bypassing those laws and coming up with, you know, silly, 114 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: superfluous reasons to justify what is really retribution. He says 115 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: he was transferred across the country only to be suspended 116 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: on day one, and the FBI's actions then forced his 117 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: family to have to beg and borrow for warm codes 118 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: for their kids because their family's belongings were all locked 119 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: in an FBI controlled storage facility. You know, one of 120 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: the examples given in the congressional letter included an example 121 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: of where a neighbor or somehow someone knew a parent 122 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: that they believe was extreme. So that so you get 123 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: to call the FBI the world's premier law enforcement most 124 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: powerful law enforcement agency in the world, he says, on 125 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: a neighbor because they disagree with him. Well, that is 126 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: chilling targeting, you know, traditional Catholics, targeting pro life groups, 127 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: targeting tiger moms like Linda that show up at these 128 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: stupid school board meetings. How often you go to those 129 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: school board meetings? 130 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 2: I went just this past Tuesday to vote for my 131 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 2: local school board. You know, candidates, I mean, you have 132 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: to go all the time. You got to go and 133 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 2: you got to be heard, right, So when you. 134 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: Walk in, how many people say, oh, no, there she is. 135 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, there's a large constituency of people 136 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: like me from all across all the sides out we're 137 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: sick of. 138 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: I'm not what I didn't ask you about the people 139 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: that support you. How many I know, how many people 140 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: when they see you go come in, they go, oh, no, 141 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: here we go again. It's going to be another Adam 142 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: Schiff show. 143 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: I think that it becomes a very interesting time. 144 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: That's what it becomes very interesting. But who knows, right, 145 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's insane, you know, the night. 146 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: And I have no doubt they're watching absolutely. 147 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: So we know from the New York Post the FBI 148 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: deep six four separate investigations into the Clinton Foundation because 149 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: Hillary was running for president. Now this is on top 150 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: of the fact that she deleted with bleach bit, which 151 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: means if that just does not bring into account the 152 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: intention to break the law or violate the subpoena. I 153 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: don't know what does the fact that we I had 154 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: not heard of bleach bit before Hillary Clinton, but these 155 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: were subpoena emails thirty three thousand. They wipe them clean 156 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: like with a cloth. No, not like with a cloth. 157 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: They wiped them with bleach bit, basically acid washing or 158 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: hard drive of a computer. Beat up their devices blackberries 159 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: and iPhones so they you know, or you couldn't retrieve 160 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: anything from them, and remove their SIM cards and she 161 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: gets away with all that. Now we're discovering that four 162 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: separate investigations into the Clinton Foundation ended because she was 163 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: running for president and the FEDS had been looking into 164 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: claims that foreign countries and other individuals were trying to 165 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: influence the Clintons through donations to their namesake nonprofit and 166 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: Hillary's presidential campaign. Three of the FBI's four investigations were 167 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: launched in early twenty sixteen, looking into serious and by 168 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: the way, real allegations that the Clinton Foundation had a 169 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: hub of criminal activity. And now we know those federal 170 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: probes originated in the field offices at of Little Rock, Arkansas. 171 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: We had known that at a previous point, Washington, DC 172 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: and New York, all of which opened audits into the 173 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: charity as Hillary was in the midst of this run 174 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: and the Little Rock and New York offices were investigating 175 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: a claim that an outside commercial industry Weekly Quote engaged 176 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: in a public official in a flow of benefits scheme, 177 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: namely large monetary contributions that were made to a nonprofit 178 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: under both direct and indirect control of the federal public 179 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: official in exchange for favorable government action and or influence, which, 180 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: by the way, is what the IRS whistleblowers claiming about 181 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, which is the document that now James Comer 182 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: and the Oversight Committee and Jim Jordan and the Judiciary 183 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: Committee and Senator Grassley over in the Senate has been 184 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: asking for. They didn't deny they had the document, that 185 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,239 Speaker 1: is not willing to turn it over. The DC investigation 186 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: based on allegations that the Clintons accepted millions in donations 187 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: from foreign governments as well as massive Russian corporations in 188 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: an attempt to influence US foreign bottom bilacy dating back 189 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 1: to Hillary's days' secretary of State. By the way, originally 190 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: outlined in Peter Schweitzer's best selling book Clinton Cash and 191 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: the fourth investigation looked into allegations made by a well 192 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: placed source that Hillary continued accepting those the illegal donations 193 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: throughout the presidential campaign. You know, it's fascinating to watch 194 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: how House Democrats spent all of yesterday's hearing on the 195 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: FBI did the defund dismantled no ball law crowd, circling 196 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: the wagons around the FBI, attacking whistleblowers. That I thought 197 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: they love whistleblowers. I mean, like all the roles are reversed. 198 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Democrats hate whistleblowers, and now they support law enforcement as 199 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: long as it's working on behalf of the Bidens and 200 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: the Clintons, because that's what happened this week and four 201 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: separate investigations ended. But anyway, so now they're circling the 202 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: wagons and attacking the whistle blowers. I thought you'd love 203 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: the whistle blowers because if it's leading to the impeachment 204 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: of Donald Trump, you're going to love them, you know. 205 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Linda Sanchez, vice chair of the House Equality Caucus, 206 00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: sought to demolish FBI whistleblower Marcus Allen for retweeting a 207 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: post asserting Nancy Pelosi stage January sixth.

But they're so safe and so secure. 332 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: They have a gun rack that swings out of the 333 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,719 Speaker 1: safe gives you the best access to your firearms anyway. 334 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: They've done an incredible job.

Do I think that he bet wrong? Yeah? 347 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: I think he was betting the whole time because they 348 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: look it took a while for speaking McCarthy to win 349 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: his race, and you know, but the Republicans were united 350 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: behind principles in a plan. And so now Joe Biden 351 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: has to cut his foreign trip. He's been to Japan, 352 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: he was supposed to go to Australia. I forget which 353 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: other countries he's now no longer going to. But so 354 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: the debt limit negotiations between the AIDS for Biden and 355 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy were put on pause. Today they admit an 356 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: impasse over spending cuts. Now, as far as I'm concerned, 357 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: there were House Republicans did their job. Now this is 358 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: now Speaker McCarthy's biggest challenge because McCarthy got a got 359 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: enough people to vote for his bill. They only won 360 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: by two votes. And so whatever changes, Joe Biden is 361 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: going to quote demand the same guy that said he 362 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't negotiate, the same guy that disappeared for ninety seven days, 363 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: the same guy that is barely negotiating now putting other 364 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: people out there to do it for him. They're coming 365 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: up last minute. Now, you know, today's the nineteenth. Okay, 366 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: so you got a twelve days left until Janet Yellen 367 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: says we're gonna run out. We're going to start defaulting 368 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: on our debt. Okay, well, where was he that one 369 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: hundred day period he was betting Republicans wouldn't get the 370 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: job done. Now, the bill they passed is a really 371 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: good bill. It goes back to twenty twenty two spending levels. 372 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: That's not onerous, that's not draconian, that's not burdensome. That 373 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: just makes sense. And then they cap baseline budgeting increases 374 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: to one percent. Is that that also is fiscally responsible. 375 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: The CBO scored it out a four point eight trillion 376 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: in savings over ten years. They also have exceptions in 377 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: there now to make us more energy independent. I mean, 378 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: the fact that we have abandoned energy independence is the 379 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: single dumbest thing that Joe Biden has ever done. On 380 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: top of open borders, you can add that to it. 381 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: So anyway, m McCarthy's negotiator walked out of a meeting 382 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: with the White House staff, saying that there was no 383 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: point in continuing talking until both sides were serious about 384 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: a deal. Until people are willing to have a reasonable 385 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: conversation about how you can actually move forward and do 386 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: the right thing, then we're not going to sit here 387 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: and talk to ourselves or negotiate against ourselves. Representative Garrett 388 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: Graves of Louisiana said then. A source close to the 389 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: talks has told The Washington Times that the negotiator hit 390 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: an endpass on several fronts. They don't want work requirements 391 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: only for able bodied men that are receiving government benefits 392 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: on welfare, or caps on future spending growth. They're only 393 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: capping it to one percent growth. That is not an 394 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: onerous burden when you have thirty one trillion dollars in debt. 395 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: There are real differences between the parties on budget, and 396 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: it's going to be hard. Now here's the problem. Let's 397 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: say they do come to some temporary agreement. All right, 398 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: that's fine. Now Kevin McCarthy's got to go back to 399 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: his entire caucus and say, will you accept these concessions 400 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: to get the debt ceiling done, debt ceiling built, or 401 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: increase done so we don't default, so Biden doesn't default. 402 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: I think the odds of that happening are probably pretty low, 403 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: because the breakdown in talks now come as Republicans and 404 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 1: Democratic leaders under pressure to deliver this deal. 405 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 3: Now. 406 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: On Thursday yesterday, more than the more than forty member 407 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: of Freedom Caucus House Freedom Caucus rightly called for a 408 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: suspension of negotiations. Rather than negotiate. They said that mister 409 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: McCarthy should be pushing for the wholesale adoption of the 410 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: debt limit legislation that they already passed. This is Biden's default. 411 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: If this country defaults, it'll be on Joe Biden. Joe 412 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 1: Biden was Mia Biden said he wouldn't negotiate. Joe Biden 413 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: doesn't have constitutionally the power of the press. Kevin McCarthy 414 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: begged him daily for a meeting. He ignored Kevin McCarthy, 415 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: and so they went out on their own and they 416 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: came up with a very responsible fiscal plan that will 417 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: increase the debt ceiling so the country doesn't default. You know, 418 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: if you ever, if you ever, will look at the 419 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: problem in Washington, you know, it's not that they're not 420 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: taking enough of your money. They take plenty of our 421 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: money as a percent of GDP. The government's collecting taxes 422 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: at a rate way above historic norms, So it's it's 423 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: got to be spending thirty one trillion dollars in debt. 424 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: The government is spending at a rate way above what 425 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: historically has been the norm. The CBO points out the 426 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 1: government outlays totaled twenty five point one percent of GDP 427 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two, compared to pre COVID levels of 428 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: twenty percent. I mean, that's a twenty percent increase. And 429 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: Biden's debunk claims that his policies have cut the federal debt. No, 430 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: they have not. Facts are facts, lies or lies? Washington 431 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: DC has a spending problem, not a taxing problem or 432 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 1: a revenue problem. It's unreal anyway. The new debt ceiling 433 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: polls shows a landslide flied majority of Americans back this 434 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: work requirement. The Democratic leader in the House that came, Jeffries, 435 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: is dead set against it, but Axios points out that 436 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: nearly two thirds of Americans, including half of Democrats, want 437 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: work requirements for Medicaid and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance program benefits, 438 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: which House Republicans want in exchange for raising the debt ceiling. 439 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 1: You know, it shouldn't be free money. If you're an 440 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: able bodied man or woman, you should be able to 441 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: get out and work and participate. And that will also 442 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: similarly incentivize people to go out and get a job. 443 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: It's better off working for yourself and the pride and 444 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: the self esteem. It's incalculable in terms of your own 445 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:09,479 Speaker 1: mental health. New AP poll shows that the American public 446 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly support the position taken by House Republicans in the 447 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: debt sealing debate. New poll AP shows clearly a majority 448 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: sixty three percent say they think the negotiation should be 449 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 1: coupled with terms to reduce the budget deficit. That's what 450 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: the Republicans did. As I've been telling you, you look 451 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: at leading economic indicators, They've now tumbled for the thirteenth 452 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: straight month in a row. I know that Democrats want 453 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: to tell you that, oh, things are great. They're not great. 454 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: The housing market's not great, inflation's not great, and the 455 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: bad economic news, the hits just keep coming. Tax collections 456 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: are down in blue states across America. Look at New 457 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 1: York State alone, personal income tax collections plunged by a 458 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: whopping forty nine percent from April twenty twenty two to 459 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: April twenty twenty three. Well, one of the reasons is 460 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: people are getting their ass out of New York. They 461 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: don't want to be here. I can't blame them because 462 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: they're robbing everybody blind, you know. Former Governor Cuomo said, 463 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: tax the rich tax the rich, tax the rich. Yeah, 464 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: and then guess what we tax them? And then they leave. 465 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: They don't care anymore. 466 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 4: Tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich. We 467 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 4: did now, God forbid the rich leave. 468 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: Well, they're leaving. At one energy watchdog group warning the 469 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: two thirds of North America could face blackouts this summer 470 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: because of this insane climate alarmist religious cult. Anyway, they're saying, 471 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: this war on energy now is having a devastating impact 472 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: on our power grid. More than two thirds of North 473 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: America could see electrical outages when temperature spiked this coming 474 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: summer because utilities in many areas do not have sufficient 475 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: reserve generation capacity to meet the surges in demand. This 476 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: is every one of these problems that we have, from 477 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: our border, to the high cost of energy, to inflation, 478 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: everything that's impacting you know, high interest rates, all of 479 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: it is was all preventable. If this guy would have 480 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: come into office and not changed the thing and just 481 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: just slept through his presidency up to this point, we'd 482 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: be in a lot better shape. On major US power 483 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: source facing extinction thanks to red tape calling for reform, 484 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: The nation's top hydro power trade group and energy developers 485 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: are now raising the alarm on the regulatory process facing 486 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: new and existing projects, warning of a reliable source of 487 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: electricity for millions at risk hydro power. It s applies 488 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: nearly eighty thousand megawatts of our nation's power, six point 489 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: two percent of the total used in the US anyway 490 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: utility scale electricity in twenty eight point seven percent of 491 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: the total utility scale renewable electricity, according to federal data. 492 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: It remains a key part of the nation's growing power grid, 493 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 1: but stakeholders now are arguing it's facing regulatory hurdles far 494 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: greater than those faced by other carbon free sources of electricity. 495 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: Guess what, They're not going to be able to keep 496 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 1: going zero heads today. The large percentage of the American 497 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: consumers are now facing financial hardship as they grappled with 498 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: elevated living costs, Biden inflation, record high credit card use. 499 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: You know, by the way credit card you know interest rates, 500 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: if you're taken a look at them, Yeah, they're massive. 501 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 1: Can't afford it if you if you can't live paycheck 502 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: to paycheck and you tap it into your pension or 503 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,719 Speaker 1: tap it into your credit card like so many Americans are. 504 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: We're in trouble. Paying that money back is not going 505 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: to be easy. As many as eighty nine point one 506 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: million American adults were bound to experience some form of 507 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: difficulty covering their expenses between April twenty six and May eighth, 508 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: according to Bloomberg, citing new data from the Household Pulse survey. 509 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: That's up from thirty four twenty two two and twenty 510 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: six point seven percent in the same period in twenty 511 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: twenty one. It's almost double. The Keystowe pipeline owner gives 512 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: Biden's energy agenda reality check. We would be taken in 513 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: a nine hundred thousand barrels of Canadian oil a day. 514 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: Every single problem we have was preventable, every one of them. 515 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: House Republicans now launching an investigation into the terrorism threat 516 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: at the southern border. You think you think it's time. 517 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: Look with all of the people on the terror watch 518 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: list that they caught. It's simple math if you extrapolate 519 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: out the percentage of godaways versus the percentage of people 520 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: that have been caught and then allowed into the country illegally, 521 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: and you say, okay, well, we have hundreds of people 522 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: on the terror watch lists that we've caught since Joe 523 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: Biden have been president. Just extrapolate out, and I would 524 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: argue the numbers likely higher because if they're coming in 525 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: here and they know they might be on watch list, 526 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: they're probably going to try and come in at a 527 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: point of entry where nobody notices them. I mean, terrorists 528 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: can be evil and grotesquely so with nefarious plans to 529 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: destroy America, and then they're they're plotting and planning and scheming. 530 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: How much do you want to bet one day and 531 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: I pray to God I'm wrong, that we're gonna wake 532 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: up and there's gonna be some terror attack in this 533 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: country and we're gonna find out they came through the 534 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's porous open southern borders. How much you want 535 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: to bet that's gonna happen? Now? I hope that I'm wrong, 536 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: but I don't think I'm going to be wrong anyway. 537 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: There's reports now Tim Scott announced that he's running for 538 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: president today, the senator from South Carolina. We'll try and 539 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: get him on the show sometime next week. And also 540 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: it is reported that Ron DeSantis is set to launch 541 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty four presidential bid next week. I wasn't 542 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: sure completely that he was committed to doing it, but 543 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: I guess, based on reports today, it looks like he's 544 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: going to and it's gonna the whole thing is gonna 545 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: be interesting to watch. Now, this may sound naive on 546 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: my part. Do I wish they weren't at each other's 547 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: throats from the get go, from the opening salvo? Yeah? 548 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: I think it would be better for Republicans if, at 549 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: least for a while, they play nice. But I'm also realistic. 550 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: I've been doing this for thirty five years, and at 551 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: some point during the primary, the stakes get high, and 552 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: once those steaks get high, those gloves come off and 553 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: it's a bare fisted brawl. But this one seems to be, 554 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: especially between Trump and DeSantis, to start out as a 555 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: bare fisted brawl. And I don't think there's anything that 556 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: anyone can say or do that's going to stop that 557 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: from happening. But we'll see what happens next week. We'll 558 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: be here obviously covering this well. Next week's Memorial Day weekend. 559 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: I'm not sure there's going to be many people around, 560 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not sure if that's the best week 561 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: to make the announcement. Listen, I want to remind you 562 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: about our friends at the Tunnel the Towers Foundation.

He's your watchdog on Washington. 586 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: Hannity is on anyway. In the note, the ouse Republicans 587 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: now launched the probe today into the soaring number of 588 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: terrorism suspects who have been detected trying to sneak into 589 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: the US. Biden says, it's a clearer national security risk. Well, 590 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: why don't you close the border and stop lying to 591 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: us and say, oh, the border's secure. No, it's not secure. 592 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: It's not been there is. Finally, they've seemed to have 593 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: heard US legislation introduced in the House that would bar 594 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 1: individuals associated with the Chinese Communist Party or other foreign 595 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: adversaries from buying, releasing US farmland. The Communists Chinese have 596 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: been buying all this farmland, all this ranch land, often 597 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: near military installations. We China, ever, allow American nationals to 598 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: go over to China and buy their farmland, their ranch land. 599 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: No by land near their military installations. I don't think so. 600 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: Now they're only including a rand North Korea, China, and Russia. 601 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: It makes no sense to me none. But nothing that 602 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 1: is going on in this country right now is making 603 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: a whole lot of sense, all right, when we come back, 604 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: one of the whistleblowers, Garrett O'Boyle and Judge Janine Piro 605 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: coming up straight ahead this Friday,
