This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right.
Thanks, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Toll-free, our numbers 800-941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, Title 42, up gone, finished, and the board open border Biden disaster continues.
By the end of three years, we're going to have, I'm I'm guessing here it's well over six million, six and a half million more likely the number of illegal immigrants that have entered this country illegally since Joe became uh president.
Uh it's just a remarkable to me.
And the chaos at the border and what's happening now with states.
Now we have videos, by the way, the the Biden phones apparently are back.
Did you see those videos on social media, Linda?
I sure did.
Yeah.
And then free transportation.
And then they have the audacity to think we're that stupid and tell us again and again and again and again that the border's secure.
The border is not secure.
I've known this for years.
The only period of time we had security at the border or some security or a lot more than we do now was when Trump was president, and we had the Stay of Mexico policy.
They started building the border wall and they enforced the laws of the land.
I mean, stay in Mexico, even you know, Biden admitting that, oh, it's going to be chaotic for the next number of weeks or months at the border because of Title 42.
Now we did have a judge rule on this issue uh last night, which is not bad news.
Finally, yeah, you get some judge that's uh on on point.
By the way, Hakeem Jeffries is claiming the border crisis is fictional.
It's not fictional.
It's very real.
Anyway, a federal judge did block the Biden administration from releasing migrants without court dates as Title 42 is expired.
Uh federal agents placed on standby in case of riots.
I mean, that's it it's so chaotic down there.
It's it's insane.
It's unbelievable.
Anyway, we'll talk about that.
Then we have the debt ceiling uh meeting with Biden canceled today.
I guess Joey was probably tired of blaming Mitch McConnell for the cancellation.
Mitch McConnell didn't need to be there.
This is a conversation, even Mitch McConnell has said that's got to take place between the House and uh Kevin McCarthy this uh and Joe Biden because those two are the ones that are gonna make the deal.
We now have 44 U.S. Senators, 43 have signed on to it, and Senator Kennedy told me on my show that he didn't sign it, but he agrees with it that they're gonna go along and support the House bill.
Now we have what, 19 days left, based on my count, according to Janet Yellen's deadline of June 1st, where we're gonna hit the debt ceiling.
All right, so what's gonna happen then?
All right, we're gonna default as a country, and Biden is now drawing red lines in the sand saying the inflation reduction act is not going to be changed in any way, shape, matter, or form.
And then Biden's White House law inks saying that these these study groups have been they've been making great progress.
I doubt it.
Kevin McCarthy uh is saying, no, they're not making any progress.
And here's the problem by Joe Biden waiting ninety-seven days.
Well, for anything to really happen, Republicans raised the debt ceiling.
They raised the debt ceiling, but they put fiscal restraints so that we could restart paying down our debt and reducing our deficits.
And so they said, all right, we're gonna go back to 2022 spending levels.
That is not onerous.
That is not difficult.
Uh you still had COVID money being spent at that time.
We'll go back to 2022 spending limits.
Uh, we'll reduce the rate of growth of government to a maximum of one percent.
In other words, they're not cutting anything, but they're not gonna let government grow out of control.
Uh, we know that they put in other measures that would help the economy involving domestic energy production, etc.
Smart common sense stuff.
And lastly, it's been scored by the Congressional Budget Office that it will save four point eight trillion dollars over a 10-year period.
And they're only getting a one-year increase in the debt ceiling.
But I how they expect what the White House is expecting here.
Now, Chuck Schumer, if he can't get cloture, and you have 44 senators committed to staying with the House bill, so that means Kevin McCarthy and Joe Biden have to work out a deal.
Now, Kevin McCarthy has a small minor uh majority in the House.
For Kevin McCarthy to sit down with Joe Biden, I don't think Kevin McCarthy's gonna have any authority to negotiate away what is a fiscally responsible bill that raises the debt ceiling that they've already passed.
They've already done their job.
Senator Schumer's not, they may put a bill on the Senate floor, but it's not going anywhere.
I think even Joe Manchin is going to probably lean with the Republicans because he is for fiscal restraint.
So now you're at a point where they can't pass anything in the Senate.
The House bill is already passed.
If Joe Biden, Joe Biden requests that Kevin McCarthy go back to his 222 members and uh ask them to change this, that, or the other, what are the odds he's going to get a majority of them to support it?
I would say it's rather slim.
So Joe's choice, it seems to me, is now coming down to do two things.
One is default, which has never happened in history.
Uh, or two, go along with the fiscally responsible House bill, and next time, maybe don't bet against Republicans uh uniting around a fiscal uh responsibility bill uh that raises the debt ceiling.
Because I told you from the very beginning, when this was starting at the beginning of this year, that Democrats were gonna gamble and gonna bet that the Republicans would not unite.
They wouldn't get the enough votes to pass a bill that would raise the debt ceiling with the same measures that everybody could agree on.
I mean, you've got the Tuesday group, you got the study group, you got the Freedom Caucus group, you got the more moderate group, you got the this group, the Saturday group, Sunday group, Monday group, Tuesday group, it's insane.
But they were able to pull it off by doing their job.
It was a heavy lift, just like they just passed a border bill, another heavy lift.
Chip Roy uh texted me, he said you have no idea how hard this was to get across the finish line.
Uh Chiproy has emerged as a really strong leader in the House.
Uh Byron Donalds has as well.
Uh he's gonna join us in the next hour of Florida.
He's doing a great job.
Chip Roy's from Texas.
And they also passed a bill that says that Congress they can't be selling their stocks when they have, we know they have insider information.
In other words, the stop Nancy Pelosi family bill, because that's what they've been doing.
Uh the amount of chatter that is still ongoing regarding Donald Trump's appearance on fake news CNN the other night is is you know, a lot of it is now making me laugh.
They invited Donald J. Trump to do a town hall.
Donald J. Trump showed up.
Now, they are the ones that kept bringing up all the old issues.
As far as I'm concerned, the issues of January 6th, the election of 2020, although we've got to learn the lessons of 2020.
There are a lot of lessons to learn.
You know, uh you can't if you have laws where partisan observers get to watch the vote count.
I think you gotta abide by those laws.
And a lot of states did not make accommodations because of the pandemic.
That that happened.
That was widespread in the country.
Um, I think every state should have, for example, voter ID, signature verification, chain of custody commands, updated voter rolls.
Um, I think partisan observers watching every vote.
I prefer paper ballots, whatever.
You know, we we didn't really do the deeper dive on January 6th.
Now they did the beat up Donald Trump part that he spoke at the rally, held the rally.
They never talked about the many of you will peacefully patriotically march to the Capitol so your voices will be heard part, uh, nor did they get into the truth, which was that you have one, two, three, four people in a meeting in the days before January 6th saying that Donald Trump brought up bringing up the National Guard, and that responsibility was Nancy Pelosi's.
We interviewed the Capitol Police Chief, January 6th uh committee ignored this guy, and he requested not only on January 6th, but on the days leading up to it, uh National Guard help.
Um, and then of course, even MBC and Lester Holt reporting that there was actionable intelligence that they had in the days leading up to January 6th, and they failed to act on it.
That's a big part of the story that the January 6th committee really didn't want you to know about.
But with that said, January 6th and the 2020 election are in the rear view mirror.
I think we have Litigated these issues to death.
And then when CNN says, oh, well, he's not talking about the future, well, then ask him questions about the future.
Ask him questions about what he will do with the border.
Ask him questions about, you know, how do we reduce the price of energy?
Ask him if he wants to ban gas stoves and air conditioners and dishwashers like the Democrats do.
Ask him what energy dominance means.
How do you get to energy dominance?
What is it?
What does all that mean?
How would you deal with the Chinese spy balloon?
How would you deal with Vladimir Putin and Russia taking out a drone?
How would you deal with chaos at the border?
How would you refund the police?
How do you convince states to get rid of these insane no-bail laws?
I mean, if you if you want to run a town hall and elections really are about the future, then you got to talk about the present-day problems and what you would do to solve them, and then let the audience decide.
Uh, the town hall participants decide, you know, whether or not they like the answers of one candidate or another candidate and who they prefer.
It's really that simple.
But if you want to go back into the old, good old days, it's, you know, you're gonna get what happened.
And then the overreaction is ridiculous.
There's some, you know, this guy, Scott Galloway.
I've never heard of him.
Former CNN, who's on Media, former CNN Plus host.
How long did CNN Plus last?
A week?
It's like on the air for a day.
It's on the air for a day.
Okay.
And he apparently hosts the podcast.
I don't know anything about the guy.
I have nothing against the guy.
The headline is Scott Galloway says he got PTSD from watching Trump CNN Town Hall.
Well, if you if you can't handle watching a town hall, if it impacts you that much, it's not like you're drafted into watching fake news CNN.
Now, Anderson Cooper's getting the crap kicked out of him and being called the disgrace because he defended himself and his network and then did an anti-Trump rant and then concluded with viewers have the right to never watch CNN again.
Well, there's not many watching in the first place.
I don't know what to say to that.
Um, but this is where people's heads are at.
They they really are stuck on this issue and they can't seem to get out of it.
Now, here's the sad part of it.
You know, that's the same network like MSDNC, another network, like all the three broadcast networks that lie to your teeth about Trump Russia collusion that never happened, and they did it for three long years.
They're the ones that were cheerleading not one impeachment but two impeachments.
They're the ones that couldn't get enough of the January 6th hearings, but they didn't do anything as it related to the actionable intelligence that people had, or the guard issue or Nancy Pelosi's responsibility, or did they bother to interview the Capitol Police Chief?
He actually wrote a book about this.
We had him on, and he gave us details nobody had heard before.
Uh and it's that, but this is where they want to go.
They didn't even cover the story this week at James Comer's press conference, you know, laying out all the LLCs that the Biden family was using to take in money from Romania and China, and those are only two of what he's saying are many, many countries.
And just the beginning, this is a preliminary interim report and just the beginning of their investigation.
They totally ignored that because they were too busy wanting to cover uh an unknown new freshman senator, I'm sorry, Congressman by the name of George Santos.
Lucky me, I happen to live in his district and uh go after him because he was indicted in four months.
How did they indict him in four months, yet they've had Hunter's laptop since December of 2019?
Is anyone gonna answer that question?
I doubt it with a straight face, anyway.
All right, this is just genius.
You can't even make this stuff up.
The Biden administration, they want the military to power their Humvees, their troop transporters, uh, and other non-tactical vehicles with Chinese-made batteries, according to the Daily Caller.
You can't make this up.
The Biden administration is now taking drastic steps to transform the U.S. military's gas-powered vehicles into green energy fleets that would be dependent on Chinese-made EV electric vehicle batteries.
I mean, this is this is madness.
We're gonna bring out to the battlefield what a charging station for a Humvee or for a tank?
Anyway, Republican uh representative Bill Johnson, he grilled the Secretary of Energy, Jennifer Granholm recently over the Department of Defense's push for electric non-tactical vehicle fleet by 2030.
So he goes, so Madam Secretary, are you telling us that the dependence on globally traded fossil fuels is too volatile and dangerous for our military, and therefore we should electrify?
Wouldn't that make our military dependent on other globally traded commodities, such as enormous amounts of lithium, cobalt, and rare earth uh minerals is an improvement of some kind?
Would you agree that these critical minerals are in fact volatile and controlled in many cases by unfriendly nations like China and uh could uh become scarce in the middle of a conflict?
And Grandholm tells the Senate Armed Services Committee that she's backed an effort to make every one of the Department of Defense's non-tactical vehicles an electric vehicle by 2030.
I mean, the Army, I mean, it's it's sort of like now they're using what are they using?
Uh transgender, I don't know, somebody is as military recruitment because recruitment is way down.
Why what part of having a military with the best, greatest military technology, the best weapons that are technically available, the best technology available, uh, the meanest, toughest kick-ass army on the face of the earth that is capable of destroying any foe, any place, any time, anywhere.
why wouldn't that be the priority over going green in the military or going woke in the military so The radio show, the mainstream media loves date.

Now there is a reason I missed a story yesterday.
And the reason is it was in the New York Times.
I don't like to read the New York Times because they often get pulled out surprises uh for horrible wrong reporting, but that's, you know, they've got their bias.
Uh, but they did have a headline yesterday that was pretty stunning that the FBI under Obama, his administration, uh, that they sent an investigator posing as an assistant to meet with a Trump aide in 2016.
Conversation at a London bar in September of 2016 took a strange turn when a woman sitting across from George Papadopoulos, who was a Trump campaign advisor, he was not a very high-level advisor.
He admits that himself.
Poor guy had to spend two weeks in jail.
Anyway, for nothing.
He did nothing wrong.
Anyway, and she asks him a direct question.
Was the Trump campaign working With Russia.
The woman had set up the meeting to discuss, quote, foreign policy issues, but she was actually a government investigator posing as a research assistant, according to people familiar with the operation.
It turns out that the FBI, according to the New York Times, sent her to London as part of a counterintelligence inquiry opened up that summer to better understand the Trump campaign's links to Russia.
This is how he got involved in this.
And uh anyway, the American government's affiliation with the woman, uh, who said her name was Azra Turk is one previously unreported detail in an operation that had become a political flash point.
By the way, all these sanctimonious, oh, Donald Trump lied, Donald Trump lied, news divisions.
Yeah, guess what?
All of them got the Trump Russia collusion story wrong.
You know, longtime informant Stefan Helper was tasked with collecting intelligence on the Trump campaign.
The time story details how the woman was sent overseas under this fake name and occupation oversee the spy operation.
Halper handpicked by a seasoned FBI counterintelligence agent out of New York, the New York offices, according to the article.
The Times does not identify the agent by name.
The paper says the FBI agent spoke at a conference organized by Halper about a 2010 case involving Russians posing as Americans.
I mean, so what they're doing here, and Papadopoulos actually tweeted about this.
He says, I agree with everything in this superb article, except Azra Turk clearly was not the FBI.
He claims that she was CIA and was affiliated with Turkish intelligence.
She could hardly speak English and was tasked to meet me about my work in the energy sector offshore Israel, Cyprus, which Turkey was competing with.
New York Times also admits in the article that the aggressive, unprecedented action of deploying spies and luring American targets overseas to collect intel on a rival political campaign yielded no fruitful information.
Oh, or they weren't exactly reporting that at the time.
So I guess you could say that the Obama administration, you know, sent several spies into the Trump campaign.
And yet what happened?
Nothing.
This is why everyone asks me all the time, what do you think is going to happen with the Biden family scandals?
And I'm like, you know, the syndicate is what it is.
Do I think ultimately we're getting to the information?
I do.
Do I think we'll ultimately get where we need to go?
I think so.
I think Comer is doing a great job so far.
It's interesting how the media mob that was so interested in Trump Russia collusion has zero interest in allegations that the Biden family was being paid by hostile regimes, millions of dollars, funneling money through at least 20 identified according to James Comer shell corporations, LLCs that they used to transfer money around so they could give it to nine or ten uh Biden family members.
Anyway, one report has that Biden allowed China to spy on Americans' military because he didn't want to offend Beijing.
Why would you not want to offend Beijing?
Why would you not want to offend Putin?
Is it because maybe they have dossiers on the entire Biden family?
Congresswoman Nancy Mace accused the FBI chief Chris Ray of uh Biden scandal cover up.
I he said I have one message for FBI's uh Christopher Ray, and I'm looking at you, Mr. Ray.
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Man up and do your job.
They've had the laptop since December of 2019.
That's what makes this whole disinformation or pre-bunking effort so dramatic is that they had Hunter's laptop in December of 2019.
They had it 11 months before the 2020 election.
Why were they meeting weekly in the months leading up to the 2020 election with all of these big tech companies?
Why were they warning them that they may be victims of a misinformation campaign and it may be about Hunter or Joe Biden?
It's unreal.
And then the quad the most important question, the million-dollar question, we've been asking it.
New York Post asked it uh as well today.
What did the Biden family do for all the millions that they're being paid?
And Colmer in his interview on this show yesterday was very, very clear that you know they're only talking now about part of China.
There are other deals that they're looking into.
Other LLCs that they believe they're gonna find.
And Romania, we haven't gotten to Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine.
You know, the one the one big one that stood out to me, and we said it over and over and over again is the quid pro quote with Joe.
Fire the prosecutor.
You're not getting a billion.
You have six hours to do it.
Son of a bee, they did it.
Prosecutor was investigating Hunter.
And you have the liberal media mob circling the wagons of the Biden, you know, they're an extension of basically the White House press corps.
You know, what do people say?
Democracy dies in darkness.
You know, the New York Post writes it can also die in the full light of day as well, especially if people are prevented from seeing what is in front of them.
Two bombshell events this week on the Republican side.
The, you know, uh, you got the jury in the well, they talk about the E. Gene Carroll case, but uh it's also Trump denied the charges completely.
But then on this report of House Oversight Committee, we had G we first of all, we had James uh uh Jim Jordan rather, and Jim Jordan pointed out that apparently there's now credible information that active CIA employees were trying to get former Intel agents to sign on to the Blinken Morel,
you know, 50 former one Intel uh agents has all the earmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign letter that they even admitted was a talking point for Biden going into a debate with Donald Trump.
How is that not, you know, using you know your credibility, your high position in office, now you're retired, and they're doing it to play politics?
Is that fair to lie to the American people or to say something you don't know is factually true?
Jim Jordan is now saying that after they interviewed John Brennan that there's no doubt at all that this was a political operation.
You know, he said it on Fox last night.
He said the testimony his panel heard in private from former CIA director John Brenner confirmed the letter signed by 51 current and former Intel officials was not on the level.
This is after a four-hour interview, and he further confirmed that this thing was all political.
At least he was honest when he when he had to be, couldn't lie under oath.
So, you know, where's the media mob on all this?
We're gonna do the a lot on this tonight on on Hannity, you know, all the Biden family scandals that the media mob will never talk about because there's so much of it.
Uh, let me go back to the issue of immigration, and then I mentioned earlier about this judge and the judge's orders.
Um, and this that is not a minor issue.
A federal judge blocking the Biden administration from releasing migrants, illegal immigrants without court dates as Title 42 is expired.
Uh federal agents now placed on standby.
They in case of riots as Title 42 ends.
You have the border patrol now calling the Biden administration corrupt to its core.
Uh DHS uh secretary Mayorcus, the biggest liar and propagandist that we've ever had.
We'll get into a lot more detail about this, but this federal judge's ruling is important because it's blocking the Biden administration from implementing a policy that would allow for the release of illegal immigrants without court dates.
Now, you know, not to you you can't even make up what I'm about to tell you because it's so ridiculous, and it could only happen in America, apparently, as this Title 42.
If you want to get a court date, Linda, take a guess when the next court date is available.
Take a guess.
I mean, uh, they're so efficient.
I have to assume it's this week.
Uh no.
It's like in uh like 2035.
But Majorca says there's not a crisis.
I don't understand.
Oh, he said there's not a crisis, and he said that it's secure secure.
It is secure.
You know, they gave them phones, they know where they're at on taxpayer dollars.
It's just like the Obama phone.
I wonder where they got the idea.
Yeah.
Uh I have no idea.
It's a great question.
I don't know.
Anyway, New York City Mayor Eric Adams is now uh resorted to playing the race card against the Rockland County upstate county executive who refuses to accept busloads of illegal immigrants.
You know, it's interesting.
Adams is doing it, Martha's Vineyard did it.
Uh, and it also happened, where else?
If Lori Lightweight did it.
In Chicago.
And we actually played that, Sean.
We had those.
Here's what's interesting.
The same people that put a Democrat in office are fighting back and saying, No, we don't want this.
We don't want these people here.
We don't want illegal immigrants here now that it's actually happening.
I'm like, oh, so your heart was very big when the people of Brownsville, Texas were dealing with it.
But now that it's in Chicago, you're not such a fan anymore.
Yep.
I mean, once it's in your backyard, you're a fan of, you know, it's all great to have a sanctuary city, except when the people actually come there.
Well, I'm going to continue with this.
So now Adams is mad.
He says you look at the county executive day.
This guy has a record of being anti-Semitic and racist comments.
His thoughts on how he responded to this really shows a lack of leadership.
I thought he was the Texas governor the way he acted.
That's what he's saying.
And Biden's illegal immigrant deluge is going to cost taxpayers.
Uh, this was in the New York Post, nearly at least a trillion dollars.
This is what we're I can't understand here.
And we're doing no vetting to see if any of these illegal immigrants have radical associations.
None at all whatsoever.
No vetting at all.
We're not doing a thing.
You know, the House, by the way, Republicans, to their credit, they passed a sweeping border bill to stop this from happening.
HR2, the Secure the Border Act of 2023.
It passed 219 to 213.
Not one Democrat supported it.
And the bill secures the border from President Biden's record crossings, record carelessness, record chaos.
The problem is in the Senate, it's not going to pass in the Senate.
Because Republicans aren't in charge.
Anyway, Democratic Representative Johnson is accusing Republicans now of savoring the border crisis, quote, wanting slavery, claiming migrants needed to feed feed and clean for Americans.
I'm like, what is this guy talking about?
Republicans like to see them lined up at the border because they know that that's a stream of uh labor ready to be exploited with cheap uh, if any, um uh compensation.
I mean, if you could get back to slavery, you would gladly do so.
But if you could pay people a dollar an hour, uh you you would settle for that.
And that's that's the race to the bottom that we have with immigrants lined up at the border trying to get in and go to work.
And my Republican friends talk about how they don't like that, how it's a crisis, but yet they savor it.
What Biden has done here is he's opened the borders, and he and Mayorcus are not upholding the laws of our land, and they are aiding and a betting in the law breaking.
That's what's happening right before your very eyes.
And in the meantime, you are losing your country.
