Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.

Our numbers 800-941 Sean.
If you'd like to be a part of this extravaganza, uh a lot to talk about today.
You know, it's amazing.
Well, a couple of things that are unfolding that are pretty interesting to me.
I mean, the never ending nonstop hatred of all things Donald Trump and the obsessive compulsive nature, it just hasn't stopped.
And it doesn't matter that they've been wrong so often.
It just is that that every they're pulling out all the stops to prevent this man from ever, ever really having a chance to be president again.
And, you know, maybe this week we'll get another indictment, maybe this time out of Fulton County, Georgia.
I don't know.
But what's interesting is when you compare and you contrast, we have a president of the United States with a cancer surrounding and is now inside of his presidency.
And that's Joe Biden and the bribery scandal allegations that are very real now.
And we know that on a very deep and very profound level, all the times Joe Biden said as a candidate, and all the times he said as as as president, that never once did he ever speak to his son Hunter, not one time about his foreign business dealings.
I never spoke to my Hunter or my or my brother or anybody for that matter, said it over and over and over and over again.
There's only one Democrat, I'll play it later in the program, who actually came out over the weekend.
Some guy from Massachusetts, I'm I'm not sure how to pronounce his name, Jake Auschenklos, and you know, well, if Hunter committed crimes, he should face justice.
So now there's been a slight movement here.
You know, now the media is beginning to ask some questions about Hunter, but they're not asking about Joe.
This isn't about Hunter anymore.
We've moved way beyond the Hunter part of this scandal.
You know, they they didn't care that they got three years of of they peddled three years of Russian lies and conspiracy theories, Trump Russia collusion.
It doesn't matter the double standard on top secret classified documents that Hillary had or Joe Biden had.
It doesn't matter that Hillary destroyed 33,000 emails that were subpoenaed.
It it does none of this matters.
And so the they seem to show a willingness now to at least ask the question, but they're framing it only through the prism of this being a Hunter Biden scandal.
That that's not what the news is anymore.
The news has moved way beyond this.
This is the Joe President Joe Biden bribery scandal allegations.
And it is real.
And we've learned a lot, starting with the big lie that I never once talked to my son, my brother, or anybody for that matter, about their foreign business deals.
Well, now we know beyond any doubt at all that he was up to his eyeballs in this company.
And and the length and and and breadth of this is profound.
And I think the most damning case is what we had picked up on very early on, which was Joe Biden bragging on tape that he demanded that he said you're not getting a billion dollars unless you fire a prosecutor, who we now know is investigating Barisma Holdings and his son Hunter,
and we know that Barisma was pressuring Hunter, who's on the payroll, even though he had no experience based on his own words on Good Morning America in oil, energy, gas, or Ukraine, and he's getting paid a fortune.
And you know, and and Devin Archer even took it a step further.
He was he was before the House Oversight Committee.
He talked to Tucker Carlson in pretty revealing interview.
He said hiring Hunter was an influence play.
Well, what is influence peddling?
Well, that that's another nice way of saying, and it's what the 1023 form alleged, uh, that that that is an accusation of bribery, that specific actions were taken by then vice president Joe Biden.
I'm not giving you the billion.
You got six hours by the prosecutor, son of a bee, They fire him, uh Ukraine gets their billion and Hunter continues to get paid.
That's a problem.
And then Hunter even takes it a step further in his laptop by implicating Pops.
Pops gets half of his income.
Uh he has to pay for Pops' home repairs, 10% from the big guy.
All of this said.
And in this Tucker interview, you know, Barismo, this was an influence play.
And that the Barisma officials sending messages to both Devin Archer and Hunter, you know, we need DC help.
That was said, you know, in the committee hearing.
Or that Biden knew his son was on the Borismo board.
Well, if he never talked to his son about his foreign business dealings, how would he know that?
And why is there such a lack of curiosity among the ever so media Trump obsessed media mob?
And it is a mob.
I call them the mob because they got a mob mentality.
I mean, wherever one liberal journalist goes, there goes the rest of the crowd.
And then, you know, I hate Donald Trump a lot.
I hate him a real, real, real lot more than you'd hate him.
And I no, no, no.
I'm the biggest one.
And they just, you know, talk to each other.
They live in this this blue check mark Twitter bubble.
I guess it's X now.
And they talk to each other, and they think that they're all doing a great job, never admitting how wrong they were on the on the Russia collusion, lies and conspiracies they peddled, you know, never doing their job about the FBI's involvement in the 2016 election, lying on FISA applications.
You know, they never, you know, went into the whole issue of, well, why was the FBI that knew that the Hunter Biden laptop was real?
Why would why were they meeting uh weekly with big tech companies in the lead up to the 2020 election and and telling big tech companies you might be a victim of disinformation campaign?
It may be about Joe Biden, it may be about Hunter Biden.
And then lo and behold, they knew that this Hunter laptop story would leak.
They knew that Rudy Giuliani had a copy of it.
He was Donald Trump's attorney.
There's no way that wasn't going to leak.
And yet they're out there meeting with big tech in the lead up to that election, and sure enough, that whole story gets censored before an election.
Is that election interference?
Sounds like it to me.
You know, and then take it a step further.
The narrative to the Barismo board is that don't worry, we've taken care of Shoken.
But they didn't want another prosecutor.
You know, Barisma executives were putting in his words, never-ending pressure on Joe and Hunter and DC.
We need DC's help.
Archer telling the House Oversight Committee that they he thought they would likely have gone bank bankrupt.
Then he talks about the Biden brand.
Is the Biden brand the guy that smokes crack that's an addict that has a proclivity towards women of the night, hookers, prostitutes?
Was it that brand?
Or was it Joe Biden the vice president brand?
The vice president that could actually get the prosecutor fired for the personal enrichment of their family, because that's what the bribery statute says.
So, you know, at what point does the media just take off their blinders and do their job for once?
It's just so pathetic.
Archer telling Tucker that he provided a halo for Borisma.
They didn't consult him on things like pipeline construction.
He admits that, you know, about dinners at Cafe Milano, but that's also where Joe Biden met with the former first lady of Moscow that we've talked about.
Three and a half million dollars, and then we learned from from Archer in the House Oversight Committee that it was 120 million invested and in a real estate venture with Hunter and Devin and Rosemont, whatever Seneca, the company that they had.
Barisma, you know, wouldn't have stayed in business if Hunter wasn't on the board.
Says it's false to say that Joe Biden didn't know about his son Hunter's business dealings.
That's that's all there is to it.
So why is this such a hard lift for the mob and the media?
Because they're corrupt.
They are corrupt.
And then this gets to the heart of Jim Jordan's Judiciary Committee investigation, and that is Joe Biden's remember, the the DOJ is part of the executive branch.
Is his Department of Justice, which includes The FBI have they been politicized and weaponized.
Now, certainly you can argue that the FISA applications and their their helping Hillary, no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute, and ignoring 33,000 subpoenaed emails that were deleted.
You know, that was a big aid and assist to Hillary.
And then allowing the dirty dossier story to get out there and meanwhile, the FBI had went over the pond and sent agents over to meet with Christopher Steele, offered him a million dollars if he can corroborate any part of it, he couldn't.
And then a month within that month, they start using the dossier anyway to lie on FISA application.
I mean, do you see, and then the 2020 interference?
You know, at some point here, Jim Jordan, by the way, accused the FBI of lying about their 2020 meetings with big tech.
And he released new evidence Monday today indicating the FBI lied about it.
The FBI lied about the meeting with big tech regarding the New York Post Hunter Biden laptop story.
And Jordan published documents showing the FBI's comments on the Hunter Biden story when it first broke, and how FBI's special agent Elvis Chan testified about his meetings with Facebook representatives.
Facebook straight up asked the FBI if the Hunter laptop story was true, and they said we can't comment.
But they had verified it themselves.
Then why were they telling Facebook and Twitter and other big tech companies that they might be victims of a disinformation campaign and it may be about Hunter?
Well, that prevented Facebook for allowing the sharing of that information, which was a form of censorship, which was an aid and a big huge aid and assist to Joe Biden.
Weeks leading into this election, when early voting is happening, and then general the general election day.
Anyway, Chan and the foreign influence task force section chief, a woman by the name of uh Laura uh Demlau met with Facebook October 14, 2020, the day the New York Post published that story about Hunter's laptop.
They met with both Twitter and Facebook that day.
And at the time the FBI had the laptop.
They've had it since December of 2019.
They verified it, we believe earlier, but at the very latest, by March of 2020, that's confirmed by John Solomon, and documents published by Jordan show that when a Twitter representative asked whether the story was real, just like Facebook asked, and an FBI agent said yes, but then an FBI lawyer jumped in, cut him off, and they wouldn't talk to no one else was allowed to talk at that point.
So that they purposely kept it secret.
And then he said uh this woman said that the FBI held emergency deliberations on how to respond to the question going forward.
When the Facebook meeting was held later that day, the FBI said no comment when asked whether the Hunter Biden story was factual.
Wow, that takes it to a whole other level now, doesn't it?
So you have, you know, now the FBI being accused by Jim Jordan of lying about their social media contacts.
One other thing that Devin Archer said is the release of Hunter's laptop was a nightmare.
I mean, he said Hunter did not call him after emails on the laptop were publicized, even though Archer included was included extensively in the content.
It led to incessant, never-ending media fodder, continued.
By the way, it turns out that Secret Empires, Peter Schweitzer's book, did you see this, Linda?
Uh, resulted in, and that's when Hunter left the border barisma.
Yeah, he's been way ahead of the game on this.
You know, and and I'll tell you, there's a poll out by Matt Towery, an insider advantage.
I mean, it is shocking how little people know about all these issues we discuss every day.
I mean, everybody knows about Donald Trump because that's all you get, but they don't get the whole story about Donald Trump.
I'm gonna tell you where these respondents, for example, how many people did have not seen border video during the Biden presidency?
It'll shock you.
How many people have not read any significant news regarding redacted emails of Anthony Fauci and gain of function research?
How many people have actually read or viewed any significant news about improper contact by a lawyer for Hunter and the to the federal court where Biden was to face sentencing and a bunch of other important issues of the day?
Compare it to what everybody knows about Donald Trump, and you're saying, wow, we really do have a dual justice system.
We don't have equal justice or application of our laws.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hammond, And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional SAS.
You're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.

Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
So there's a poll by uh Insider Advantage, that's Matt Towery's poll, 850 likely voters.
Less than 50% of respondents have seen, I mean, Linda, this this stuff is frightening.
Have seen videos showing any substantial significant crossing of illegal immigrants across our border during the Biden presidency.
By the way, uh there are people in cages today with 115 degree heat.
If that was if that was Donald Trump, could you imagine?
Sixty percent of respondents have not read or seen any news related to the recently released redacted emails of Dr. Fauci concerning, quote, gain of function research and the origins of COVID.
The exact opposite.
Right.
Only 39% have read or viewed any significant news concerning the alleged improper contact by a lawyer for Hunter Biden to the federal court where Biden was to face sentencing.
And while 68% knew of allegations that other members of the Biden family, beyond Hunter, had received potential funds from foreign corporations and in China, Romania, Ukraine, only 53% considered it significant.
On the issue of impeaching Biden, nearly 50% said they were not even aware of any legitimate reason for impeachment.
You know, with another Trump indictment, I mean, they know everything about Donald Trump.
It's it's like every second, every minute, every hour of every 24-hour day, every seven-day week, every month, every year, it just does it hasn't stopped from the minute this guy's come down the escalator.
Joe Biden, president, serious, significant, bribery, scandal allegations.
Nah, we won't even ask a question about Joe.
Exposing government waste and abuse of your liberties every day.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
So Devin Archer reveals this is Hunter's business partner, uh, that during this dinner with Barisman executives at the four season in DuPai.
This is the December 4th, 2015 meeting, uh, that Hunter said he would be able to get help from DC in order to relieve government pressure on the company.
The pressure was Victor Schoken, the prosecutor that eventually Joe Biden had fired by leveraging a billion tax dollars.
And that meant Hunter can continue to get paid.
And he said that Barisma executives, you know, led by Zolochewski, you know, they they just use the term, can we get help in DC?
Well, well, what's the help that Hunter's going to offer in DC?
The help is Pops.
The help is dad.
The brand is dad.
The Biden brand isn't the crack guy.
It's not the hooker guy.
The brand is the guy that's in charge of foreign policy for Ukraine and a lot of other countries that Hunter's doing business with.
It can't get any more damning than that, unless, of course, you don't want to report it, which is pretty much everybody in the mainstream media mob.
You know, the president, you know, back from his vacation.
How many, how many people are gonna how many interviews will Joe do?
And how many questions will he take about his big lie that he never once spoke to Hunter, his brother, or anybody for that matter, about their foreign business dealings, and yet he's calling in to all of these meetings, two dozen meet meetings.
You know, Jim Jordan rightly pointed out that this dear Devin letter from Joe Biden to Devin Archer, you know, proves that, you know, uh Joe's connections on another level to Hunter's dealings.
He knows all about it all.
Here's one interesting thing.
Our friend Peter Schweitzer, he launched his book in 2018 Secret Empires.
And anyway, one of the things to come out of this, Luke Rosiak picked up on it, and I saw this article on MediaId about it that Hunter Biden quit a Chinese board because Peter Schweitzer exposed him when his book came out, Secret Empires.
And by the way, and and in throw them all out, he exposed insider trading and members of Congress.
He's not Peter Schweitzer's research is impeccable.
I mean, the amount of work.
Think about this.
It is now 2023.
And he came out with his book in 2018.
Even the Washington Post checker, and they need somebody over there to usually fact check the fact checker, gave Biden four Pinocchios for his other false claim that Hunter never made money from China.
Well, we we already knew that.
You know, other one other laptop email showed that Hunter was warning Devin Archer about potential Faro law violations.
Well, well, that wasn't part of the sweetheart plea deal where they they would have exonerated Hunter from any and all federal crimes.
If that if that Delaware judge did not read that document that she only got that morning and go into deep, go deep into the weeds on the provision, the diversion program provision for the the lying on the gun application, which by the way, her court in a similar case sentenced somebody to five years in jail for.
If she didn't see in there that, well, hang on a second.
Does this mean that are there any further investigations into Hunter?
It all fell apart with that question.
Because it uh because at that point she realized that there was a secret deal.
And Hunter's attorney's like, I'm not taking that deal if he can be prosecuted on other things, and the whole thing fell apart, although they got 30 days to try and put it back together.
We have new text messages that show that China wanted to use the Biden family to get control over U.S. energy assets.
John Solomon releasing this today.
Now we've been highlighting, and nobody seems to care.
I don't know.
Why do I care about this?
Why are the communist Chinese buying up thousands of acres of farmland, ranch land, and land near military installations?
Why are we allowing that foreign you know, nationals to do this?
Anyway, new text messages that have been obtained by Solomon, editor-in-chief JustHNews.com, show evidence that the Biden family name and influence were key to foreign clients like CEFC.
Uh that is the Chinese energy conglomerate.
And anyway, that conglomerate struck a controversial deal with Hunter in 2017.
That was in the WhatsApp message, the chairman.
Remember, I'm sitting here with my father within a week, five million dollars transferred.
Anyway, so that uh they plan to use the Biden name to provide cover for their ambitious plan to buy up energy assets.
That's the communist Chinese inside the United States.
His other business partner, some guy named James Gilliar, just the news reports, texted future partner, Tony Bobelinski on Christmas Eve 2015 after Hunter had been alerted to CEFC's China's energy interest.
There was a deal between one of the most prominent families from the U.S. and China constructed by me, this guy Giller had said.
And anyway, CEFC was the leading edge of China's Silk and Belt Roads initiative to acquire energy assets all across the globe.
And the company chairman officials of biography bragged about his links to the Chinese communist government and military, saying that he served as deputy secretary of the China Association of International Friendly Contact, identified as a front for China's military in 2011 by a U.S. Congressional Report.
I think this will be a great addition to their portfolios as it will give them a profile base in New York City and Los Angeles.
In the text message for me, it's a no-brainer, but culturally, they're different, but smart.
Let's see.
Any entry ticket is small for them.
The text corroborate.
What is bombshell testimony from another Hunter Biden associate, Devin Archer?
That the Biden brand, it's all about the Biden brand.
Which brand do you think they're referring to?
The crack brand, the Hooker brand, or the vice president brand.
We also have, in terms of incriminating evidence, the Daily Caller put this out.
You know, we've talked about this before.
An oligarch from Kazakhstan wires a huge sum of money to Hunter Biden's link corporate account for the purchase of a new Porsche.
Isn't that nice?
Somebody buying a Porsche for Hunter.
Wire was sent around the time the oligarch met Joe Biden and his son for a 2014 dinner in Washington, D.C., according to transcripts of Archer's testimony before the House Oversight Committee.
The company controlled by that oligarch sends a whopping 142 grand to a corporate account linked to Archer and Hunter Biden, which was then which then wired the funds to a beneficiary of a car dealership the next day so Hunter could buy a Porsche, according to the transcript of Archer's hearing released on Thursday.
Unbelievable.
This is our country.
What is happening?
nobody in the media cares you know it's just met with just utter silence there's a slight shift though now they will now they're Now they seem willing to throw Hunter down the stairs.
By the way, California over five dollars an average gallon average gasoline.
Washington, 499 a gallon, Hawaii, 473 a gallon, Oregon, 465 a gallon, Alaska, 441 a gallon.
That might be due to transportation issues, I'm guessing.
Not blaming Alaska.
Alaska actually is a much better state than any of the ones I mentioned.
Nevada, 433 a gallon, Utah, 411 a gallon.
Illinois, 406.
Average price of gasoline has soared 30 cents in just the last couple of weeks.
By the way, Friday's unemployment report, we were off Friday anyway.
Economists at Forbes took a closer look at the Friday unemployment report, which had the media mob celebrating a reported 1807,000 job increases.
Good news for Biden, but according to Forbes' analysis of the raw data, we didn't gain any jobs last month.
In fact, we actually lost 394,000 jobs.
Anyway, they point out at Forbes.com, they said, Looks solid at first glance until you look at all the data and you take that into account.
The work week fell by three tenths of a percent in June, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and they revised May and June's job reports lower by 49,000 jobs.
Economist David Rosenberg quoted as saying when you adjust for the decline in the work week, payrolls actually slid 125,000 jobs on an equivalent worker hour basis, then count in the two-month downward revision of 49,000 jobs to May and June and account for a surge in multiple job holders, and the real number of jobs created was minus 394,000.
But why listen to the experts?
Why bother?
Joe Biden sold 900,000 Barrels of America's emergency oil supply to the communist Chinese firm tied to Hunter.
Wow, why would we give the communist Chinese?
These are the people now confronting our fighter jets in international airspace.
They're confronting our Navy in international waterways.
They're threatening our ally on a daily basis, Taiwan.
They're warning us that they're going to hit us with hypersonic missiles.
And meanwhile, Joe Biden sells 900,000 barrels of America's emergency oil supply to the communist Chinese.
That is for Chinese that is for an American emergency.
This is sick.
This is madness.
Could it be that they they want to.
Now, why is it there were no consequences for the communist Chinese balloon?
Why?
The spy balloon.
Why is it that Russia paid no price for taking down one of our drones?
Now the Biden administration has abandoned their effort to refill the petroleum reserve because it's now too expensive.
I told you last week, Saudi Arabia announced that they're going to cut back oil production even further along with their OPEC allies now that they've aligned with China.
I think the communist Chinese are having a say in this.
We'll be back to $5 a gallon gasoline in no time.
Guaranteed.
And by the way, it doesn't help people that you know think, well, flying has gotten near impossible because Pete Budajudge doesn't know what the hell he's doing.
I know more people that have had their flights canceled than ever before in my lifetime.
Can't tell you how many people.
Like, are you are you following this?
I know somebody that was in New York wanted to get to Florida.
There's a zillion flights from New York to Florida.
Couldn't get one for a week and decided to rent a car and drive home because they couldn't get home.
Unreal.
And that's what's happening.
Bidenomics, by the way, this this two-month propaganda push for reelection for Joe Biden.
Yeah, guess what?
It's not resonating with the American people.
They see through it.
It's not happening with them.
You know, there was an interesting viral video.
I don't know, Linda, I I didn't I sweet baby James gets me all this stuff, but a Generation X mom is viral.
Name is Jessica McCabe, whatever.
Anyway, she lives in Alabama, retired U.S. Air Force.
She posted a video on TikTok.
It's racked up over 10 million views, 63,000 comments, 1.8 million likes, talking about her frustration as a parent with the way adult life is shaping up for her 25 and 28-year-old kids.
And by the way, I I know because my kids are in that age bracket, or pretty close to it.
Um I'm talking to a lot of parents, and they're watching their kids struggle like, you know, they I'm so tired of feeling helpless as a parent, she said.
Yeah, my kids are growing adults.
My oldest is 28, my youngest is 25, and I thought by teaching them what I learned, which is you work hard, you get a good job, you're gonna get the things in life you need, work for me.
Why wouldn't it work for them?
And she says it doesn't because the world is effing changed.
She goes on to share the way she's seeing her kids struggle to find a footing as adults in more is far more severe than what she has seen in her peers.
Now I take a little bit of a different view.
If you're willing to work and do any work, whatever you whatever job you can get, you'll you'll make money and then live like you know, you're not making any money for a long time.
You'll survive, which is kind of how I started my adult life.
We all struggle, but there's a difference between struggling and drowning, she said.
But you know, you see all these uh, you know, all these statistics about young people and uh the rate of depression and it's awful.
Sixty-one percent of Americans now live in paycheck to paycheck.
Great job, Joe.
Bidenomics, great job.
By the way, one fisherman is protesting offshore wind projects on the East Coast, calling it a man-made environmental disaster.
Which it is.
The climate alarmist religious cult.
Um, by the way, I mentioned this last week.
Ford lost 4.5 billion dollars.
4.5 billion in their electric vehicle line.
And you want to know why?
It's not really complicated to figure out.
They lost it because nobody wants them.
That's simple.
Hey, Linda, we have a Harvard scientist saying they may have proof that alien life exists, and we should welcome it.
I'll start with that person.
They should go first.
What do you mean they should go first?
Well, let the aliens come to them and we'll watch how they handle it, and then we can emulate it if it works.
It's a Harvard scientist, so I think that's actually a good idea.
Let him be the let him be the test person.
Absolutely.
He could be the test person.
So here's an interesting note, side note.
Um, nearly 70% of adults in the U.S. believe in the existence of angels.
Do angels exist?
I believe the answer.
If you look, as a Christian, I believe angels exist.
It's biblical.
And I just I just believe.
Look, if the Bible tells you that God knows the number of your hairs are counted on your head, and the every can count the grains of sand and the stars in the sky and creates universes within universes.
Yeah, I'm sure angels exist.
You have any doubt on that?
I have zero doubt on that.
I think there's angels all around us all the time.
We need them more than ever now, that's for sure.
When we come back, Clay Travis, a guide to winning back the country from the Democrats and Doug Schoen, Greg Jarrett, and your calls 800 941 Sean.
