This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right.
Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Toll-free, our number is 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of this program, former President Donald J. Trump, he will join us coming up later in the program today.
Greg Jarrett, we're going to go over all the new developments as it relates to the Biden family syndicate.
We have a ton of news on all of this.
Then we have the issue, of course, of the IRS whistleblower.
Then the question about the AG Merrick Garland and whether or not he ran interference for the Biden family, especially Hunter Biden.
Then we keep hearing, even in the mainstream media, that charges against zero experienced Hunter could be imminent even the day that his father announced that he's running for re-election.
It was the most pathetic announcement I've ever seen in my life.
It was it was prerecorded and it was just god awful.
And well, why did they prerecord a, hey, I'm I'm running for re-election message?
Because he can't do it effectively in front of a crowd.
That's why.
It's that simple.
What do I keep saying?
He's weak, he's frail, and he's a complete cognitive mess.
So it's not even worth playing, to be honest.
And yes, Kamala will be on the ticket.
Big shocker there.
Um, but we are, you know, really, really deteriorating very quickly as a country, and we better get our act together.
Uh I am really thinking that this is a tipping point.
I don't know how bad this is going to get between now and January of 2025.
That's assuming that the Republican candidate wins.
And by the way, that is getting harder.
That's why I keep harping on the resistance, the reluctance that some people have towards uh early voting or voting by mail, uh, the resistance of the Republican Party to get in the game of legal ballot harvesting, especially in these swing states.
Uh the hardened physicians of candidates on the issue of abortion is killing the Republican Party, especially in swing states.
We saw that in Wisconsin with the you know double digit win of the Supreme Court justice that tipped the balance of power to the left in Wisconsin.
That's not good.
This is happening everywhere.
You want to know why Doug Mastriano lost by a record number uh for percentage of the vote to a non-incumbent, uh the largest margin since the nineteen forties because he didn't even have exceptions for rape incest or the mother's life.
Now, I'm not talking about abortion on the in the moral sense.
I mean, if you believe in the sanctity of life, if you're pro-life, that's fine, but it's not where the country is.
And we are seeing this in election results.
Doug Mastriano dragged down the entire Pennsylvania ticket.
I mean, it was a disaster for Republicans.
He didn't have exceptions for rape, incest, mother's life.
Tudor Dixon, same thing.
She would have been a great candidate in Michigan.
She would have been a great governor.
Um I like her personally, but the tape was out there of her saying that, and they just beat the crap out of it.
And Democrats now are trying to exploit that as their number one issue.
Democrats don't run campaigns like Republicans.
Republicans run campaigns based on ideas.
They think they can go out to fairs and public gatherings and meet people and shake hands and kiss babies and and do take selfies and do press avails and do town halls and answer questions, and they think that'll get them over the finish line.
Or Linda in football, we would call it crossing the what?
The plane.
You got it.
What does that mean?
Okay.
Uh we'll do this a bit later in the show.
There's no reason.
We've been there done that before.
It hasn't worked out well.
Um so that's what's that.
That's why I keep talking about these things.
Um we're not gonna talk so much politics with President Trump today.
I'll explain it in a little bit, but um let me just tell you where we are.
We have a lot on the Biden family syndicate that we're gonna get into today.
There are reports now, even in the mainstream media, that it looks like Hunter Biden could be charged.
It could be imminent.
He could be indicted.
They're talking about four charges, and two would be felonies, one lying on a gun application, a second felony for tax evasion, and then numerous misdemeanor uh tax evasion penalties.
This is all the low-hanging fruit.
I'm not buying any of this.
Because now we're learning from James Comer in the House Oversight Committee, and we're learning from Jim Jordan in the Judiciary Committee that this runs far deeper than Hunter Biden and taxes.
And I'll get into that in a second.
Um let me just tell you, even the New York Times.
Now, Linda, think about this.
They're calling on Joe Biden to take a cognitive test.
Joe Biden didn't make a traditional announcement that he's running for re-election for one reason.
His team knows what a cognitive mess he is.
They didn't have confidence in his ability to make an announcement that would be effective.
So they taped it in the basement of, I guess, of the White House or wherever the hell they taped the thing.
But in a really stunning opinion piece uh in the New York Times today, the entire Times editorial board is urging Joe Biden to come clean with the American people about how his advanced age is has impacted his physical and mental abilities.
The Times says, quote, Biden's cognitive abilities are something that he should discuss publicly and also demonstrate to the voters who expect the president to reflect the nation's strength.
If he runs again, the time adds, quote, Mr. Biden will need to provide explicit reassurance to voters.
Many of them have seen family members decline rapidly in their eighties.
Now don't look now, but when the Times demands that Joe Biden, quote, provide explicit reassurance to the voters about cognitive abilities, uh, they're calling on him to take that cognitive test that Donald Trump aced, you know, four years ago.
He passed it with flying colors.
Anyway, a few more highlights from the uh New York Times editorial board.
It says candidates shouldn't pretend as Mr. Biden often does that advanced age is not an issue.
Mr. Biden is now eighty, the oldest American to serve as president, and even supporters, including David Axelrod, you know, he worked for Obama, have expressed deep worries that his age will both be a political liability in 2024 and a barrier to a successful second term.
If Mr. Biden runs again, as he recently said he intends to and announced today, uh questions will persist about his age until he does more to assure voters that he's up to the job.
He's not up to the job.
We don't need any more evidence.
We don't even really need the cognitive test.
If you just watch this guy on a daily basis, you'll simply determine that he's not up to the job.
Now, concerns about age, both in terms of fitness for office and being out of touch with the movement are legitimate.
Voters have every right to ask questions about the medical condition of a candidate that wants their support.
Biden's most recent health summary, released February sixteenth, described him as a healthy, vigorous, eighty-year-old man who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.
Well, his cognitive abilities went unmentioned.
Now that's something that he should discuss publicly.
Also demonstrate to the voters who expect their president to reflect the nation's strength.
I mean, they're right on the money.
I can't believe it.
Now, here's how corrupt the Democratic Party is.
He gets worse.
Now, I'm not the biggest fan of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on politics.
I've debated him before, and he is now going to primary Joe Biden.
He might do far better than people expect.
Um he was very outspoken about the vaccine and and COVID and COVID policy.
I give him credit for that.
Um, but I think he's against most vaccinations, isn't he, Linda?
He's more in your area.
Yeah, I mean, I think he's definitely somebody who's asking more questions than blanketly sticking things in the room that the government says to do.
Okay, so I can give him credit when credit is due.
Uh he declared his candidacy for the he's running in the Democratic primary for president last week, and then slammed the Democratic National Committee.
He said they have rigged the primary system.
He said the DNC at this point has taken the official position that there will be no debates, and I think it's unfortunate, he said, and I think what the DNC did to New Hampshire is also unfortunate.
In other words, New Hampshire historically has been the first primary state for the Democrats and Republicans, the Iowa caucus, then the New Hampshire primary, then you head down to South Carolina.
And if you remember, Joe Biden was in a mess uh in twenty twenty uh because he didn't do well in New Hampshire and Iowa, and he was heading into South Carolina, and if James Clyburn didn't come out so hard for him, he's a very popular.
I disagree with his position, but he's a very popular political figure in South Carolina, he would not have gotten the nomination.
Anyway, Kennedy's saying this is ridiculous.
Now, why is Joe Biden?
Why is the DNC not allowing Joe Biden to debate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.?
Because they know he will lose.
They know he's not capable of it.
You know, there have been two recent interviews with President Trump.
Well, three, actually.
One with me, one with Tucker, and one with the great one, Mark Levin.
Now, I could tell you, because I sat there with him for an hour and a half, and his he's so sharp, he's so on target, he's so aware of issues of the day.
He could literally talk for nine hours and not stop.
I mean, he's he's that cognitively aware.
I'll give you another example.
I'm not a fan of Bernie Sanders, but Bernie Sanders sounds exactly like he sounded ten years ago, and I think he's older than Joe Biden.
And by the way, just to add insult to injury, a new ABC news poll is finding 70% of Americans are ready to dump Joe Biden.
They don't want him.
He's now announced his re-election campaign, but seven in ten Americans, including half of Democrats, don't want him to run for a second term.
Why?
Because they see that he's not up to the job.
You know, people are asking me, well, what's going to happen in 2024?
I my prediction is the economy's still going to be an absolute mess, a total wreck because of his energy and economic policies.
He's not doing anything to change it.
The borders will still be wide open.
He will still have us energy dependent on countries that hate our guts, and those countries are raising prices, limiting the supply, raising prices, that raises profits for them.
That's OPEC, that's Venezuela.
It'll soon, I guess, be Iran, too.
That's the reason that Vladimir Putin is so rich, and you've got this whole whole new axis of evil emerging.
And, you know, if if a spy balloon is over the U.S. uh sent by China and intelligence sent back in real time, what are the consequences?
Nothing.
If Russia takes out a drone, a multi-million dollar drone from the sky, what are the consequences for Putin and Russia?
Nothing.
Well, he's not up to the job to be president.
70% is a big number of people that don't want him to run again.
So anyway, he releases this video today, which is also ridiculous.
The video is entitled Freedom.
And then, of course, MAGA Republicans were it was in there.
January 6th was in there.
Uh then the lie about, you know, abortion and cutting Social Security and banning the right to vote.
These are all lies that Democrats tell every election season.
And anyway, you know, the guy that what had thousands of people fired for not wanting an ineffective vaccine, as it turns out, or targeting your second amendment rights, or subverting the first amendment with big tech censorship.
You know, a guy involved, his family involved in in huge massive business deals that he might have benefited from.
We'll find out soon enough.
Financially a four, or number one, number two geopolitical foes.
Okay, that's what he's running on, and he's gonna they're they're telegraphing now that he's gonna run the same campaign he ran last time.
Last time at least he had the excuse of COVID.
Well, that's not a problem anymore.
So what's going to prevent him from running a traditional campaign?
Except that they'll hide him in the basement again.
Then on top of that, he's got Hunter headaches.
And by the way, it's going to be a lot deeper than what we hear that Hunter's going to be indicted for.
And by the way, that that that these indictments may happen the very week that Joe made the announcement today that he's running for a second term.
You know, but I mean, we're still we still have wide open borders.
We're still energy dependent.
We still have China on the march.
We have China now creating an axis of evil, and he's not lifting a finger to do anything.
By the way, Mary Ann Williamson joined RFK Jr., slamming the DNC for no debates.
That is a despicable.
That's about as undemocratic as it gets.
And they're all doing it to protect Joe Biden because they know he's a a cognitive mess.
It's unreal.
Uh anyway, we got a lot to get to today, including the Biden family syndicate.
We've got new news and information we'll pass on to you.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
I love our friends at Lone Star Transfer.
Many of you over the years maybe have purchased a timeshare, and you're now finding it's very difficult, if not impossible, to book your timeshare because they are now uh available to the public, so that makes booking options very limited.
On top of that, many timeshare owners are really sick and tired of these, you know, annual maintenance feces and dues.
I mean, it's like doubling every year, and you can't afford it.
Anyway, for well over a decade, this great company, this family-owned company, has had the pleasure of helping thousands and thousands of owners of timeshares legally permanently get out of their never-ending timeshare fees.
They have an A plus rating from the Better Business Bureau over, you know, hundreds and hundreds of five-star testimonials.
Their clients know Lone Star Transfer is the only company they can trust.
They're the only company I endorse because they're great at what they do.
They're honorable, and they get the job done.
As a matter of fact, Lone Star Transfer will guarantee the release of all liability to your timeshare in writing and in a specific time frame.
So do yourself a favor, call my good friends.
No obligation at all whatsoever.
They'll give you a free consultation at 833-594075, 833-594075 online at LoneStartransfer.com.
I mean, I mean, look at Joe Biden.
I mean, 70% of Americans don't want this guy to run.
I mean, he won't even he has to announce in his basement that he's running for reelection.
And it was pathetic.
And, you know, I don't blame RFK Jr.
I don't blame uh Marianne Williamson.
They are running for the nomination as well.
Well, as a matter of fact, RFK, I saw a poll him at 14%.
Well, that would uh enable him to qualify for any debate based on past precedence.
Even the New York Times calling on Biden to take a cognitive test.
You know, his whole election, he laid it out today.
Geez, how high how important is this?
His video about January 6th, his constant smearing of MAGA ultra MAGA Republicans, you know, saying that they're going to cut Social Security.
That's a lie.
It's an outright lie.
Republicans are not banning abortion.
Abortion is is determined by the state legislatures.
That is another lie.
Republicans supporting book banning.
Uh, yeah, for kindergarten through third grade, yeah.
Maybe you don't want to have books that are sexually explicit or not age appropriate.
That's not book banning.
That's age appropriate book book banning if you want to call call it banning, but it's it's parenting, it's called.
Um, you know, it's just unbelievable.
You know, the guy that, you know, it's it's just so bad.
Can you name a single thing this guy has done that he's you can say is successful?
You can't say it's the economy.
You can't say it's the border.
You can't say it's energy.
You can't say it's foreign policy, you can't say it's anything.
I mean, it's been a disaster.
You know, I love Chris Christie.
He's out there attacking Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump, and he's got the guy out there pitching himself as the guy, uh, even though he hasn't made an official um uh announcement.
He says, I am the viable Trump alternative.
I think we will lose if Trump's the nominee.
That's why I intend to be the nominee, and he believes his approach is unique due to the fact that he personally knows Trump's, knows Trump, and is best able to criticize him.
Uh, would uh anybody like to remind Chris Christie that when he left office, he had in June in the year that he was leaving office the lowest approval rating ever recorded for any New Jersey governor in history.
He was down to a 15% approval rating.
Hey, Chris, did you forget about Bridgate?
Did you forget about Beach Gate in the middle of COVID?
He's sitting on a beach, you know, even though every beach is closed.
He's sitting there.
Can anyone forget the hug with Barack Obama in the uh in 2012?
It was just good luck, Chris.
You're not gonna win.
You have no chance.
And I'm not even talking about all of Biden's gaffes.
I can spend this next hour talking about Biden's gas uh gaffs.
Inflation, 40 year high, 23 consecutive months.
It's been a disaster.
You know, and this was supposed to be transitory.
Americans are losing on average $10,000 per household because of Biden inflation.
Real wages have fallen every single month since Biden and the Democrats passed their so-called stimulus.
Even liberal economists, you know, if you listen to guys like you know, Obama advisor uh Lawren Summers or Steve Ratner or Jason Berman or Biden's own treasury secretary yelling.
They're saying that Biden fueled the inflation, that Biden's policies, you know, including his his desired student debt bailout and a six point nine trillion dollar budget are only going to make things worse.
You look at the polls, his economic plan is working.
Eighty-three percent of Americans, according to Gallup have a negative view of the economy.
CNBC, 70% of Americans are financially stressed, and 58% are living paycheck to paycheck.
I mean, it's unreal.
Other polls have had it much higher in terms of the numbers of people living paycheck to paycheck.
You know, even say CNN, 62% disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy.
What what good news is there?
And what?
He wants to hire 87,000 new uh IRS agents to harass the American people, even though they had a record revenue year.
The problem is they're spending too much.
It's been 83 days.
He won't sit down with Kevin McCarthy.
All Kevin McCarthy wants is, you know, energy independence.
He wants to go back to energy, you know, policies that will definitely help the economy.
He wants to stop this reckless spending.
He wants to reduce the rate of growth of government to only 1% a year.
I mean, you have baseline budgeting, usually it goes up seven, eight, nine, ten percent a year.
You know, every single solitary department of Joe Biden has some green energy initiative in it.
And we're paying for all of this crap.
Look at what he's done on energy.
Gives Putin a waiver to build his pipeline while simultaneously canceling the Keystone XL pipeline.
I killed 11,000 jobs, many of them union jobs.
On top of that, we'd be importing 900,000 barrels of Canadian oil daily if in fact he finished the job and it would have been finished a long time ago.
You know, he joins the Paris climate agreement again, and meanwhile, China and India are classified as developing nations, meaning they pay next to nothing and we pay everything.
You know, gas prices now are rising once again.
Americans have lost over, you know, nearly $3,000, increased energy costs just since Biden took office because he's listening to the climate alarmist religious cult.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
6.3 million illegal immigrants have entered this country.
The Biden administration has lost lost track of 85,000 children.
How do you lose track of 85,000 children since he took office?
Over 34,600 pounds of fentanyl have been seized at the southern border.
God knows how much got through.
That's 7.8 billion lethal doses of fentanyl enough to kill every person on the planet.
That's how bad that policy's working.
And on top of that, you know, illegal immigrants are getting preferential treatment.
You know, he's not abiding by his oath of office to uphold the Constitution, and that would be the rules that govern uh this country.
You know, he basically picks and chooses what laws he wants, then preferential treatment.
He put kids in cages, nobody seemed to care.
During the middle of the pandemic, on top of that, then we have Joe Biden, you know, no vaccine mandate, not even a COVID test.
And then free transportation and free phones uh thanks to Joe Biden.
And then he dumps them in cities and and they're stuck housing people, feeding people, providing health care for people, education for people.
It's unreal.
Defund, dismantle, no bail laws, nine major cities, all have record homicide numbers since Joe Biden's been president.
Twenty-seven of the top 30 cities with the highest murder rates are led By Democratic mayors.
Any of this surprise you?
Because it doesn't surprise me.
This is Biden's America.
Look at the disaster that was his Afghanistan withdrawal.
You know, Biden refusing to confront the Chinese Communist Party.
They get to put a spy balloon over the whole country and Joe Biden doesn't do a thing.
Just like Russia gets to, you know, take out a drone from the sky.
There's no repercussions for that.
Biden says, parents, do you agree?
Biden alarms the assertion there's no such thing as someone else's child.
He actually said that.
It sounds eerily like it takes a village from Hillary Clinton.
He said there's no such thing as someone else's child, he said at the White House.
Anyway, he spoke at the national and state teacher of the year celebration.
And uh during his praise for the teacher of the year, he quoted this particular teacher, Rebecca Peterson as her name, and she put a teacher's creed into words, and she said that there's no such thing as someone else's child.
Excuse me.
Our children are not the government's children.
I know some liberal teachers that try to indoctrinate our kids, circumvent values that parents want to instill in their children.
They told they certainly are not doing a good job overall teaching reading, writing, math, science, history, and computers.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
Biden has held the fewest press conferences of any president in 40 years.
Why?
Because he's not capable of it.
Our nation's children are all our children.
No, Joe, you don't get to sniff every kid's hair.
That was a that was a low blow, wasn't it?
And if he really believes that, and I hate to make it personal, why don't you start, Joe, by recognizing your own granddaughter?
Because now Hunter's old girlfriend has him in court.
And by the way, we might get information from the laptop about finances because the judge is now demanding it or put Hunter Biden in jail for contempt, but he doesn't even want to pay, you know, child support.
And the mother of Joe Biden's grandchild, you know, has to keep taking his loser's son to court.
It's unbelievable.
You know, and then I haven't even begun to touch where where we're going in terms of these investigations.
James Comer now saying that Biden made six decisions that show a quid pro quo for foreign cash, six of them.
Specific examples.
And they all lead back to, and by the way, we've now gotten a hold of the SARS reports.
There are some 170 suspicious activity reports.
But remember Comer, when I last interviewed him last week, talked about all these LLCs that they're finding.
And anyway, they have gone back now, and they're now following the money and looking at the payments made to Biden LLCs that were then laundered down to Biden family members.
Last week we learned it wasn't three family members, but nine.
This week we learned it's twelve, it may be more.
And Colmer didn't specify which decisions he was referring to, but Biden was accused of earlier this month by a former White House stenographer of negotiating a kickback scheme when his son Hunter ascended to the board of Barisma in 2014.
So if you're looking for evidence of quid pro quos, you know, don't forget, less than two months ago, the Chinese spy balloon took days, you know, taking sensitive military installation intelligence, uh feeding it back to China in real time.
Nothing happened.
No innocent explanation there.
Is it because Joe's compromised?
The same with Russia and the drone.
Is Joe compromised?
Because the Biden family syndicate did business with China and Russia.
We need to look, we need to get to the bottom of this.
There's very, very specific questions we need answered here.
And they're not hard.
We need to know whether or not Merrick Garland is weaponizing the Department of Justice and has he run interference for the Biden family?
Because it appears the IRS whistleblower seems to think so.
You know, Tony Blinken now, did he conspire to lie to the American people at the highest level and get 51 in former Intel people to say something that they had no idea whether it was true or not?
Turns out that what they were saying is not true.
Because they all signed this letter saying, oh, this has all the earmarkings of a uh a Russian hack and dump operation.
No, it didn't.
It was from Hunter's real laptop.
You know, but we need to know did Tony Blinken conspire at a high level to the American people in the lead up to the election by getting a bunch of Joe Biden supporters that worked in Intel to lie to the American people.
You know, is is Joe Biden compromised?
How much money did they get from China?
How much money in business uh did they do?
How much profit did they make?
The same with Russia.
The same with Ukraine.
The same with you know a dozen or so other countries according to James Comer.
You know, you know, we they keep talking about an imminent indictment about Hunter Biden on tax reason.
What about Farah violations, for example?
This Arkansas court judge ordered Hunter Biden to begin attending court hearings on his child support case and wants to get a hold of Hunter Biden's laptop.
That's going to get pretty interesting.
The IRS whistleblower is saying prosecutors ignored investigators' recommendations that Hunter Biden be indicted.
Well, that might mean that Merrick Garland lied under oath to Congress.
That would be an impeachable offense.
Actually, it's a crime.
But if you look up everything that's involved here, we have to ask, is the President of the United States compromised by some of our worst enemies, our harshest adversaries?
Never mind the fact that he's clearly not up to the job, but we're learning things that, you know what, nobody thought of before.
I don't know.
The, you know, has anyone brought up the issue of the, The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the FARA violations.
Did they register to do business in these countries?
Because if they didn't, it's a felony.
Anyway, 800-941-SHAWN.
If you want to be a part of the program, President Trump will join us later today.
Also, Greg Jarrett will analyze all these issues we were just discussing.
And we'll get to your calls in the course of the program as well.
I want to remind you of our favorite college, Hillsdale College.
You have students all across the country graduating from colleges, universities.
And this is one place where young people get the best classical liberal arts.
arts education in America and don't take the word liberal out of context here when these students graduate they have studied the great books of history and the history of Western civilization and the history of our great country and the meaning in the history of our Constitution that's right I'm talking about Hillsdale College founded in 1844 to offer the kind of education that's needed to preserve civil and religious liberty.
It holds true to their mission today while refusing to even accept one penny of taxpayer funding even indirectly in the form of student grants or loans.
Now Hillsdale students abide by an honor code which ensures a unity of purpose it fosters lively civil intelligent debate unlike most college campuses and the best part is all of you can learn from Hillsdale they have their free monthly speech digest it's called in Primus and you can also take one of what 30 plus online courses for free on American history the Constitution C. S. Lewis and so much more anyway go to their special website we set it up it's Sean for
that's not going to happen.
Export Selection
