When I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?

Sean Hannity.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
All right, thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Still a little hoarse today.
Linda's making me drink this disgusting tea with honey in it, but you know, it goes in and out a little bit.
To be honest, at first it makes me a little my uh my throat more raspy.
Um I feel a hundred percent fine.
It is a nasal drip issue.
It is not any other issue.
Let me get that out of the way.
And I feel great.
It just doesn't sound great at times.
It's it's kind of opening up now a little bit, but it closes and then opens up again, so we'll see what happens.
Anyway, thanks for being with us.
Toll free.
It's 800-941 Sean.
Uh we had Kevin McCarthy on Hannity last night.
Uh now Swalwell is off the Intel committee, as he promised.
Uh, and Shift, the congenital liar is off uh for lying.
That was the the reason.
He shouldn't have been on the intel committee to begin with.
And uh Swalwell, of course, has this issue with this friend of his called Fang Fang.
Can't make this up in a in a novel if I'm beginning to write one.
Uh now the House has just uh booted uh Congresswoman Omar off the uh House Foreign Affairs Committee after a majority of her colleagues voted to remove her by a vote of 218 to 21.
Uh that took place in the House.
Uh she says, is anyone surprised I am being targeted, she said, uh, in at times what was an emotional speech on the floor earlier today, which was attended by large numbers of House Democratic caucus cheering her remarks.
Is anyone surprised that I am somehow deemed unworthy to speak about American foreign policy or that they see me as a powerful voice that needs to be silenced.
Frankly, it is expected because when you push power, power pushes back.
Well, it would be nice if that's what this is about, but it's not.
And the precedent that was set.
Uh remember, Jim Jordan and Jim Banks were kicked off the January 6th committee.
And by the way, we have some pretty big big news regarding that that it seems that nobody wants to talk about, uh, but I consider it very big news, and that is Lester Holt at NBC Nightly News.
He introduced a segment uh Tuesday night.
I didn't know about it until today.
That D because I don't watch night, I don't trust MBC.
That's my bottom line.
Anyway, the detailed federal law enforcement agency's failures in the lead up to the January 6th uh riot at the Capitol.
Well, wait a minute.
You mean when I was calling for uh and asking the committee, I know they wanted their pound of flush against Trump and blame Trump, Trump Trump, uh, but they never wanted to talk to the Capitol Police Chief who requested the guard six separate times.
They never talked to the sergeant at arms or Nancy Pelosi.
They didn't ask for their text, they didn't ask for their emails, they didn't ask for their phone records.
They didn't ask Muriel Bowser why she declined the National Guard, you know, and at a whole cloth.
Why did she do that?
But anyway, in the segment, NBC News echoed criticisms and concerns that we conservatives have expressed since the attack occurred.
Now to our NBC exclusive, the January 6th committee's final report was more than 800 pages.
You can buy an autograph copy, or you could from Adam Kinziger, because he was sending, you know, before he got hired by fake news CNN.
Anyway, material did not make the cut, including much of their findings on the failures of law enforcement and what intelligence they had in the lead up to January 6th.
Oh, stuff that we were talking about.
I remember if you might recall, the Capitol Police Chief first said there was no intelligence that indicated there was going to be any kind of trouble.
And he said we don't need the National Guard at that point.
Just a day later, he changed his mind based on an intelligence briefing.
Oh, amazing stuff.
Anyway, so the images, for example, and Lester Holt said the images of the attack on the Capitol stunned America, the world tonight, and an exclusive interview, the chief investigator for the January 6th committee, says that the government could have prevented it.
Oh, why didn't they do that?
Why?
Why?
It's irresponsible.
It's your rats why?
It's irresponsible.
Anyway, MBC News correspondent reporting that the former lead investigator for the committee told MBC if intelligence agencies acted on the information that they had, they could have prevented the Capitol riot from occurring.
Law enforcement had a very direct role in contributing to the real failures and the failures that led to the violence.
Well, that's that's a whole different, you know, set of facts that nobody in the mob, now that it's all over, the show trial is all over, that they wanted to mention.
By the way, FBI is to search Mike Pence's home.
This is an agreement they made in Indiana for more classified materials.
My understanding is Mike Pence initiated this investigation on his own after the many reports came out.
I would not expect that they find anything else there, but that's happening.
Nobody's gonna get in trouble for that.
I don't believe.
If you're asking me where the vulnerabilities are for the Biden family, it would be about money.
It would be about deals they made with foreign countries.
And we have a lot of questions that need to be answered.
I'll give you a few of them.
You know, when when Zero Experience Hunter, he went on Good Morning America, you might recall, and he confirmed he had no experience in the oil and gas industry, the energy industry.
He had no experience in Ukraine.
Uh nope, nope, nope, no experience, none whatsoever.
Then he was asked whether he would have been selected to serve on the Barisma board and be paid all this money if he had had a different last name.
He says, probably not.
I don't know, probably not.
I don't think there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn't Biden.
Does that explain why Barisma would pay Hunter millions with no relevant life experience?
Wouldn't you like that deal?
And doesn't it shed light on Joe Biden?
I think he was before I think it was before the Council on Foreign Relations.
But I've shown the video enough of Joe Biden bragging.
You're not getting the billion dollars.
You're not gonna get it.
This was, I believe, loan guarantees, taxpayer dollars.
And unless you fire that prosecutor, why would a vice president want to fire a prosecutor in Ukraine?
Doesn't make sense, does it?
Until you find out this guy Shokan investigating Barisma and his son Hunter.
But we're to believe, and remember, they were paying him millions of dollars, and he admits he has no experience.
So that has to be answered that question.
Because, you know, remember the big deal we have President Trump impeached over a quid and a pro and a quo that they said existed when he was asking the new President Zelensky if he was going to be like his predecessors, or be bet be a better steward of the monies that the United States of America and its taxpayers are giving to the country, which was a fair question.
I want our president, our Congress to be good stewards with our money.
Anyway, so during this uh March 16 uh visit to Ukraine, you know, Biden says he ordered the Ukrainian president.
This is according to uh Congress.gov.
You can find it yourself.
Uh 116 Meeting House 11031 documents.
Anyway, that during this visit to Ukraine in 2016, that President Biden, uh, wasn't president then, but vice president Biden at the time, um, ordered Ukrainian President Poroshenko to fire Viktor Shokin at the same time that Hunter was being paid and on the board of this Ukrainian energy company, Parisma.
Now, if the president refused, Biden said that he'd put the one billion in foreign aid, you know, he would pull the one billion in foreign aid from Ukraine, maybe loan guarantees.
The prosecutor was fired.
Son of a bee, they did it.
You got about six hours.
Six hours, Joe said.
Should a vice president ever leverage taxpayer dollars to demand a foreign prosecutor or official be fired?
Or is that a quid pro quo?
Now, these are questions that I think Hunter and his legal team need to start answering.
We have been reaching out, like I talked to my staff on TV today.
I said, how often, because I knew we, as general practice, when we cover stories, we reach out to um the other side all the time.
Standard operating procedure.
Um, how often do we reach out to Hunter's people to give a response on these questions?
They said every time.
Every time a new big story came up.
Um in a January, this according to the New York Post, in a January 2019 text to his daughter Naomi, Hunter wrote that unlike Pop, I won't make you give me half of your salary.
Is he accusing his father of taking half of his salary?
Does that mean that he was paying his father when he said that?
That was on the laptop from hell.
I think we need an answer on that question.
Now, there is some question.
You know, there was a letter from I guess one of uh Hunter's new lawyers saying we write on behalf of our client Robert Hunter Biden to request an investigation into the following individuals for whom there is considerable reason to believe violated various federal laws and accessing, copying, manipulating andor disseminating Mr. Biden's personal computer data, says the letter.
Now, in that letter, when he says his personal computer data, are they are the lawyers acknowledging that the laptop from hell is real?
Because I was watching Fox earlier today, and it says the lawyers are not acknowledging that that's Hunter's laptop.
So if that's their position, I think we need clarification because is this tweet, in other words, is the New York Post and quoting this laptop in January of 2019?
Unlike Pop, I won't give you uh I won't make you give me half your salary.
Was he giving money to Joe?
Now we know Joe Biden made the claim repeatedly during the campaign that he never ever had a conversation with his son Hunter about his foreign business dealings.
Now we have photographs with Hunter, Joe, and some of his foreign business partners.
We have minutes of meetings.
This has been confirmed by numerous sources, New York Post included.
Um, you know, for example, uh, the Daily Mail reported that documents from the laptop appear to indicate Hunter's uh Hunter paid his father's phone bill and spent thousands of dollars on home improvement supplies and projects for his father's home in Delaware.
I think we can ask the question.
I don't know the answer.
Number one, is that true?
Number two is how much, if it is true, how much did Hunter spend on his father's expenses?
Is did the Daily Mail get that story right?
According to the New York Post, Uh, this was on 6822.
Um, friends of Hunter say that he discusses the finer points of Ukraine policy and other matters of state around the dinner table with his father, aside from serving on the board of Barisma, an oil and gas company.
Uh what did what is his life experience that warrants millions of dollars?
And the same questions can be made about, for example, you can go to the finance.gov website.
You know, how was how is Hunter Biden able to form a joint venture with a state-owned bank of China ten days after accompanying then vice president Joe Biden on an official visit to China?
Check out that information on uh finance.senate.gov dot slash IMO slash media slash document.
We'll put links up at different times.
Um How did he spend a hundred thousand dollars?
These are questions I want to ask, and I want answered.
Is it true that Hunter Biden, according to Finance.senate.gov, was placed 100 grand was placed in an account between him and CEFC executive Gongwindong is his name.
Is that accurate that the money was used for a hundred thousand dollar global spending spree with Jim and Sarah Biden?
Is that true?
Is the finance.senate gov site work accurate.
What was expected in return for the Chinese funding if it is true.
Stay on the same website.
For what purpose did the former First Lady of Moscow send Hunter the $3.5 million wire transfer?
Uh, is it also true?
A New York Post, this is uh 1017, 2022.
Uh, that the former First Lady of Moscow invested a hundred to two hundred million dollars in a real estate venture involving Hunter.
And what experience does Hunter have in real estate?
Can anyone confirm any of this?
You know, I'm I'm we're gonna start sending over questions to get answers and see what they say based on all of these reports and and all of these sources that we have uh impeccably put put together.

Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
It's almost a dirty word.
One that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.

Locker up.
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
You know, one of the things we talk about often is whether or not we have a dual justice system.
You know, one says once justice system for the Clintons and the Bidens, and one for, say, the Trump case.
With all three cases, you have top secret classified document issues, right?
We know that.
And, you know, one of the questions I have is so, you know, two months after go to the timeline.
We know that the that we found that the Biden's found top secret information at the Biden Penn Center or the Penn Biden Center on November 2nd.
The midterm election was on November 8th.
Don't you think the right thing to do would have been to inform the American people?
Um, especially considering the August raid of Mar-a-Lago, that this had been discovered.
And then when they finally went and the FBI, why did they go to the Penn Biden Center?
And why did they investigate and not let us know?
We didn't know about the November 2nd discovery for 68 days.
Now, somebody has to answer, why is that?
You know, two weeks after more classified information, two months after we have more classified information in Biden's garage and his office at home.
Ultimately, in the home and the Penn Biden Center and the garage, ultimately, really five different locations when the FBI two weeks more classified information.
Then they let Joe go to the beach house ten days before they search it.
Why did they allow that to happen?
So what's in what's interesting about this is the this Spidengate scandal, if you will, um, and the National Archives.
Now, did they treat Trump the same way they treated Biden?
Apparently there was zero contact with Biden, and we're getting information, our early information, we haven't confirmed this fully yet, is that they did contact the Trump team a number of times.
But anyway, put that aside for a minute.
We don't know the full details.
So anyway, now we have Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, told me on TV this week that the Biden administration tried to block the National Archives From issuing a press release after Joe Biden's first batch of classified documents were discovered at the Penn Biden Center.
I argue that because the election was forthcoming and because of the big raid approved by Merrick Garland and Christopher Ray themselves, because they bragged about it, um, that it would have been the right thing to do would have been to tell the American people that they found it at the Penn Biden Center.
They didn't tell us for 68 days.
In the interim, they even said the FBI went there, but there were no flashing lights, no guns drawn, wasn't a big deal like they made at Mar-a-Lago.
Anyway, so Comer's statement on my show is uh based on testimony apparently that he got yesterday, uh I'm sorry, the day before yesterday, I believe, from the general counsel to the National Archives and guy by the name of Gary Stern, who I've never heard of before.
Stern refused to identify the Biden official that ordered the archives to participate in not giving out this information to the public about this for sixty-eight days, especially before election day.
In my view, that would have been the right thing to do.
Media I reported that Ian Sam's spokesperson for the White House counsel's office addressed Comer's revelation earlier today about a White House engineered cover up of the at the National Archives.
By the way, why wouldn't they let the National Archives just give free answers to the House Government Oversight Committee?
Because part of the job of Congress as a check and balance branch of government, we have co equal branches of government, would be to look into issues like this.
Um anyway, so Ian Sams, for the spokesperson for the White House Council's office, addressed Comer's revelation at the White House.
And did anyone at the White House at any point tell the National Archives in any form that they could not release a press release about the discovery of classified documents?
Uh the off camera reporter asks uh what do you what's the reference to?
This guy Sam's asked for clarity from the White House Council's office.
Anyway, quote, there is reporting that came from the Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, they can't mention on the Hannity program.
Why why give me attribution?
Anyway, who says that in conversations with the National Archives, they communicated what they were told the archives was told that it could not release a press release about the discovery of classified documents, and did anyone at the White House tell them not to do that?
The reporter asks.
Anyway, here's what Ian Sam said.
Reporting that came from the House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, who says that in his conversations with the National Archives, they communicated that they were told, the Archives was told it could not release a press release.
At whatever point it was about the discovery of classified documents.
And anyone at the White House tell them not to do that.
Yeah, yeah, I don't know anything about that.
I if that's actually what he said, it's probably better to ask the archives.
If that's what he said, it's probably best to ask the archivist.
That doesn't make sense to me.
Anyway, so uh Ian Sam's says that if it's actually what he said, it's probably better to ask them.
Uh another reporter says, Can you just say because it was a yes or no?
And Sam's then says, I gave the answer to that question he shot back, but he didn't answer the question.
Then we've got the same guy, Ian Sam's, doesn't answer the question if the FBI had searched in other Biden locations for classified documents.
Now, I have no idea at all, nor does anybody in the public of whether or not any of Hunter Biden's residents is were searched.
We do know that he at times was in the House where the documents were found in the garage and and I guess the office of Joe Biden.
Not sure where the FBI found more documents when they finally went in there.
Um, but that means he would have had access to them when he was in the house when he was there visiting.
Hi Dad, how are you?
And maybe taking that old stingray Corvette out for a drive.
By the way, not to be not to be compared in any way to the Corvette Z06 with the Z07 package.
I gotta tell you something.
You know Rose's friend Jim Quinn from Quinn and Rose.
Yeah, love Quinn.
So I he knows everything about Corvettes.
He heard you talking, and he may have a hookup.
Okay, the lines are long for this.
Really, he's got a hookup.
So All right.
So let me just give you a little backstory.
Oh boy.
So I want the Z0 seven package on the Z06 Corvette.
Why?
Because it's all carbon, I mean this.
Because you're difficult.
No you gotta have it your way.
You think it's McDonald's?
But they had they announced to dealers, I was told.
Dealers were told that they wouldn't they they would probably have it within a few months back in July.
Now it in other words, the Z07 package on the Z on the Corvette Z06, the new Corvette Z06.
When did they come out?
I know nothing about the car.
Sorry.
Okay.
Just it's it's a new model.
Everybody wants this.
Okay.
So I did have somebody that offered me a hookup.
And I said no.
Because that means I'll uh my place in line, I would be jumping over other people and their place in line.
As a matter of fact, I had this conversation yesterday.
I can't in good conscience do that.
I don't think he means you'd be jumping the line.
I think he just knows where the line is shortest.
Well, if he knows where the line's shortest, I'll I'll put down a deposit.
Because I have deposits all over the place.
Well, that's for the stupid car.
Now, well, I wanted so Sensei and my other friend, you know the other one.
And so they're both motorheads, total motorhead.
They are freaking out over trying to get this car.
But you can't get the Z07 package for the Z06 yet.
And when that's available, it may be eight months, who knows?
Six, seven, eight months.
And like them, I'm willing to wait for the Z07 package.
Now you can ask this of Jim Quinn if you have any potential of ever remembering any of this, because you have no idea what I'm talking about.
And I got the black on black, I want the black on black package with the red seat belts and the red brake pad thingy, whatever you call it.
Red brake pack thingy.
Whatever.
That's that's black on black with the red on the Z07 on the Z06.
No, a Z06 with a Z07 package.
That's what I said.
The Z07 on the Z06.
Okay.
Yes, the Z07 package on the Z06.
With the black on black and the red on the breaky thingy.
Got it.
And the seatbelt is red too.
Seat belt red.
Yeah.
But it's I mean, and the convertible.
Got it.
I don't know why I love this car.
I'm I've never.
When you get a blue dots in Don't be mad at me, okay?
Because I'm right.
I'm doing my best here.
I'm doing my best work.
Well, tell Jim I love him.
We miss him.
And uh and Rose as well.
We love uh big friend of the program.
Anyway, so one other thing.
So both uh the National Archives, this is according to CNS News.
They are saying the National Archives released seven statements about Trump's documents, but zero on Biden's.
Then the question is why?
And then you put that together with this this guy in the White House counsel's office, Ian Sam's, who refused to answer basic simple fundamental questions.
We played some of them yesterday.
We just played a couple now.
Now why would the archives in other words I want to know why they're not asking Biden's team any of these questions?
I want to know who made the decision not to inform the American people and whether or not the Biden administration was involved.
I don't know the answer to the question.
But it's certainly relevant in light of, you know, the raid at Mar-a-Lago and those that make the statement, well, Donald Trump wasn't cooperating.
Well, they seem to have forgotten that the FBI was already at Mar-a-Lago in the storage room, where they ultimately during the raid found the classified documents and they asked for, and I just found this out yesterday, they already had a lock on that door.
They asked for an additional lock to be put on the door after they left.
Now, if they saw things there that they thought legally shouldn't belong there, why didn't the FBI take it while they were there and say you can't have this?
It's illegal and walk out with them.
They would have had the authority to do that or go get a warrant that day and then come back and get it.
Um I don't know, Biden's notes uh this is what we know about the Rehoboth Beach House.
Now one question regarding this that I want to answer too is why did was Joe Biden allowed to go to the Rehoboth Beach House ten days before the FBI goes to investigate it there.
I mean, I don't know.
That raises I was born in New York.
I'm suspicious by nature.
I don't trust everybody.
Anyway, Biden's notes were seized by the FBI at his Rohoboth Beach House.
Um does now we don't know for sure.
They're claiming there was no classified information, and I'll take them at their word on that.
Um however, the then the media mob couldn't wait to report that they found no classified documents.
Most of the reports failed to mention that the FBI did seize other materials um that were suspect.
I don't know in what way.
For example, the Blaze wrote it up this way that the president's personal attorney, Bob Bauer, explained the DOJ's planned search of the President's Rehoboth residences conducted in coordination, cooperation with the president's attorneys has concluded.
No documents with classified markings were found.
He added, consistent with the process in Wilmington, the DOJ took for further review some materials and handwritten notes that appear to relate to his time as vice president.
That sounds very lawyerly to me.
That sounds like a carefully worded statement to me.
Emphasizing agents found nothing with classified markings.
Does not exclude the possibility.
Does it?
You tell me.
Those of you listening, answer in your own minds.
Um what agents seized?
Well, why did they take anything if it was not classified?
I want an answer to that question.
Anyway, not every dark document parcel classified information, handwritten notes carry the proper markings indicating that it contains classified information.
So, you know, I'd like to see one thing Jonathan Turley, who's been very good on this issue, points out that the FBI's pretty much sabotage any possible prosecution over Joe Biden's issues with the handling of classified documents by delaying and delaying their own searches until Biden's lawyers had had had time with this prior to the quote.
Uh Turley says the FBI issued an all clear on the latest search of Biden's other residents.
This is the Rehoboth Beach House.
Announcement came with the first day of the special counsel, Robert Hur on the job at the Justice Department.
Hear may find that Biden's legal team feels that all clear extends beyond the latest search.
It could be challenging to make a criminal case after how the investigation has been handled.
At every stage, the FBI's adopted an approach that would compromise or complicate any criminal charge.
