Look, uh the hearings are still ongoing, and this is the House Judiciary Committee that is looking into whether the FBI and DOJ have been politicized and weaponized.
Some fireworks, Jim Jordan dressing down Merrick Garland over whistleblower claims.
Quote, you said he had complete authority, but he'd already been turned down.
I mean, it's great point.
And uh, I'm gonna say it again, if necessary.
Merrick Garland losing his patience in a pretty testy exchange with Dan Bishop, North Carolina Republican congressman.
You know, with as they battled over who it was that decided when it was time for David Weiss to be appointed special counsel.
Now just some background.
David Weiss has been investigating this for five years.
I've gone over this in great specificity and detail.
That plan one, we now know he after five years, the the original plan was not to charge Hunter with anything.
That got changed when the IRS whistleblowers came out.
That resulted in plan B. Plan B was simple.
That they would come up with the sweetheart deal with the am with the immunity provision buried deep inside the plea agreement and its gun diversion provision in that contract.
Well, that didn't work out well because the judge in Delaware actually asked the prosecutors, have you ever seen a deal like this before?
No, never.
We never did.
Uh then why are you giving them one now?
And uh are you are you planning to continue investigating or not?
And the oh, yeah, no, we're continuing.
Okay, at that point, that meant that provision's gone.
That blew up in their face, and the judge thankfully read the document, didn't just rubber stamp it.
And that resulted in plan C, which is which was indicting Hunter Biden, but again, not on fairer charges, not on anything involving his lack of experience and tens of millions of dollars, 170 suspicious activity reports.
You know, by the way, though those are banks informing the criminal division of our justice of our uh what a treasury department when they when they see monies that seem just completely out of whack and inappropriate and it needs investigation.
The Attorney General Garland says he doesn't remember speaking with the FBI about the Hunter probe.
Really?
I have a hard time believing that.
You know, Democrats got all teed off, and uh, you're badgering the witness, you're badgering the witness.
Garland lost his temper at House Republicans over allegations of religious discrimination.
I guess that never happened either.
I guess the FBI never targeted, you know, tiger moms like Linda.
Um, but you know, it's all getting very, very interesting to me.
House Republican accused Garland of actual perjury on the issue of, you know, the the Ray Epps issue.
Then he got indicted this week.
I don't even know who this guy really is, but anyway, that that came up.
Um anyway, so you know, let me just play a little bit of this.
I think it's worthwhile.
There's other things I'll I'll tell you about.
Jordan's slamming David Weiss's handling of the whole investigation.
Five years, this is what they've got.
They was gonna offer him, you know, no charges at all until the whistleblowers show showed up.
Jordan referred to the whistleblowers often.
Garland asked, well, are you saying that they're lying?
No, they they just have a very different uh opinion on the issue.
Oh, okay, there's a good answer.
Jordan criticizing the appointment of Jack Smith and the Trump classified document case.
Well, can anyone explain why Hillary Clinton, no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute?
Why didn't they invade Chappaqua?
In other words, why didn't they raid that that location or Hillary's offices?
Why didn't they why did they just say she had more top secret classified information than they found it with Trump?
You know, how is it she deleted 33,000 emails and that's not obstruction?
How is it that the four locations, Joe Biden had top secret classified information?
How is it none of those locations ever got rated by by the FBI?
How you know, why the double standard?
So, you know, it's uh then we have Merrick Garland, you know, well, we don't have a two-tier justice system.
Those are only words.
DOJ doesn't do what's politically convenient.
On the issue of Weiss, he's just denied well, Weiss said to Jim Jordan that he didn't that he had the authority.
And then he said just the opposite to Lindsey Graham in letters that he sent out.
Well, what is it?
And why is it that the one guy that that had said that remember they in contemporaneous notes taken by IRS whistleblowers at the time?
They were very, very clear in spelling out that uh that in fact David Weiss told them that he did not have the authority to go into the jurisdictions, which not only contradicted his own words, but contradicted Merrick Garland's words.
You know, but he doesn't recall Merrick Garland telling Representative Johnson that he doesn't recall if he's contacted anyone at FBI headquarters about the Hunter investigation.
I promised I wouldn't interfere.
Okay, did he have to sign off on the charges with Hunter Biden?
I would think that's part of his role.
Anyway, then Merrick Garland testifying that he won't discuss any discussions that he's had with Weiss.
He pledged not to interfere.
Okay, that well, why not?
What part of that can't you share?
Did you know that the original plan was not to charge Hunter?
Did you know that the plea agreement had buried deep within the gun, you know, uh the the gun provision, diversion provision, uh total immunity from prosecution moving further with all things Hunter Biden.
Do you have any comment about that?
Something that the judge got out of the prosecution they'd never seen before.
He won't answer Johnson's questions about why the Hunter investigation took five years.
I promise not to interfere.
Oh, you get to have investigations into perpetuity and allow statute of limitations to run by?
Garland doesn't give an answer to the question of his office is looking into the whistleblower complaints.
How many times did I tell you to expect this?
You know, he repeats to Dan Bishop that David Weiss had that he knew he had the authority to bring up whatever charges he wanted in the case.
Well, why did he write that?
Write one thing to Jim Jordan and another thing, contradicting it to Senator Lindsey Graham.
You know, he he said that Bishop's, you know, testifies to Bishop Weiss was not has not said if he was deterred in the Hunter case.
Really?
Well, he said, according to the whistleblower, you call him the whistleblowers a liar?
No, no, I'm not saying that.
It might just be a little different opinion.
Is that what we call that?
Back to Jim Jordan confronting Garland over differing statements on David Weiss's authority, talking specifically about what was sent in a letter to him and one that was sent to Lindsey Graham.
Jim Jordan gave four facts why it's important that the statute of limitations were allowed to expire for Hunter for 2014 and 15.
Uh and, you know, why did they allow that to happen?
You can extend the statute of limitations, or you could just charge him before they run out.
It was significant amounts of money.
I think that just basically backs up what the FBI informant and the IRS whistleblowers had to say.
The The FBI whistleblower and the and the IRS whistleblowers.
You know, uh, why did they let the statute of limitations lapse for the tax years that involve Barisma income?
That's what don't forget we have the 1023 form.
On that 1023 form, what do we have?
We have a very well respected, trusted IRS, I'm sorry, FBI informant meeting with the CEO of Barisma and quoting the CEO as saying, yeah, I didn't want to have to pay the Bidens, but I gave five million to one Biden, five million to another Biden, and it'll take ten years to find the money.
And then you do the timeline.
It was official Obama administration policy to give Ukraine the billion in loan guarantees that Joe leveraged.
That was in October of 2015.
Joe got on the phone with Hunter and Barisma executives, who at the time we know were desperate for DC help.
He's in Dubai with the Barisma executives.
Hunter is.
They called Joey back home.
Five days later, he goes to Ukraine, gives him six hours to fire the prosecutor, or they're not getting the billion in loan guarantees, son of a bee, they fire him.
And as a result of that, Hunter continues to get paid for a job he has absolutely no experience in at a time where he admits he has an addiction problem, a massive addiction problem.
Jordan tells uh Garland that Hunter investigations were slow walked and statute of limitations lapsed because of Barisma and the Joe Biden connection.
I think that pretty much sums it up from my perspective.
You know, why did they let the statute of limitations lapse in this case, especially during the Barisma years?
That'd be a pretty pretty critical part of the investigation.
You know, by the way, why the 170 suspicious activity reports?
Uh what about the many show corporations they've identified?
What did the Biden family members that James Comer says, nine of which benefited from this?
He said over 20 million.
Nancy Mace on this radio program said it's going to go north of 50 million for the Bidens alone.
I asked Jim Comer about that last night, and he said, Yeah, I believe it's going to be that number and higher.
Matt Gates got into it asking Garland as anyone told Joe Biden to knock it off with Hunter?
Gates asked, Garland doesn't answer if if people who were buying Hunter's art are trying to gain access.
I think that's a a pretty simple question.
Gates asked, doesn't anyone doesn't answer if he's confident that Hunter had stopped selling access?
Gates asked Garland why he dissolved Trump's China initiative.
Gates asked Garland, you know, you know, who doesn't answer the question about Rob Walker Shell Corporations and accuses him of looking the other way.
Well, let me play uh Jim Jordan first.
The fix is in.
Even with the face-saving indictment last week of Hunter Biden, everyone knows the fix is in.
Four and a half years.
Four and a half years, the Department of Justice has been investigating Mr. Biden, an investigation run by David Weiss, an investigation that limited the number of witnesses agents could interview.
An investigation that prohibited agents from referring to the president as the quote, big guy in any of the interviews they did get to do.
An investigation that curtailed attempts to interview Mr. Biden by giving the transit team a secret a heads up.
An investigation that notified Mr. Biden's defense counsel about a pending search warrant, an investigation run by Mr. Weiss, run by Mr. Weiss, where they told the Congress three different stories in 33 days.
They told this committee on June 7th.
David Weiss said I have ultimate authority to determine when, where, and whether to bring charges.
Twenty-three days later, June 30th, he told this committee.
Actually, I can only bring charges in my U.S. attorney's district, the District of Delaware.
And then to further confuse matters on July 10th, he told Senator Graham, I have not sought special counsel status.
Rather, I've had discussions with the Department of Justice.
An investigation run by Mr. Weiss that negotiated a plea deal that the Federal District Court declined to accept.
A plea deal so ridiculous.
The judge Asked this question.
Quote, is there any precedence for agreeing not to prosecute crimes that have nothing to do with the charges being diverted?
The response from the DOJ lawyer.
I'm not aware of any, Your Honor.
A plea deal so ridiculous that the judge also asked Have you ever seen a diversion agreement where the agreement not to prosecute was so broad that it encompasses crimes in a different case?
The response from the DOJ lawyer.
No, Your Honor, we haven't.
An investigation run by Mr. Weiss that not only had a sweetheart deal rejected, but according to the New York Times, there was an even sweeter deal, an earlier deal, a deal in which Mr. Biden would not have to plead guilty to anything.
Well you know why they did it.
Everyone knows why they did it.
May not say it, but everyone knows why they did it.
They didn't Baris, those tax years, that's that that dealt with the pri that involved the president.
It's one thing to have a gun charge in Delaware.
That doesn't involve the president of the United States.
But Barisma, oh my.
That goes right to the White House.
We can't have that.
And we can slow walk this thing along.
We can even extend the statute of limitations, and then we can intentionally let it lapse.
And we know this investigation was slow.
Here's what everyone said.
Shapley said, DOJ slow walked the investigation.
Ziglar, slow walking and the approvals of everything.
This happened at the Delaware's attorney's office and DOJ tax level.
Mr. Sobasinski, the FBI agent said, I would have liked to think see things move faster.
Miss Holly said the same to every witness we've talked to said this thing was slow walk, and we know why.
And he's right on every level.

Our number is 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program.
Maybe you noticed that the Fed didn't really react to the two months in a row of increasing inflation.
Add to that now the price of gasoline.
Now, just shy of $4 a gallon, over $6 a gallon average out in California.
Isn't that great?
Can't wait for that to come near you.
Don't forget, there's always a lag as the price of a barrel of oil goes up.
It takes about 60 days to feel the full impact of what gas prices are going to be.
That means to heat your home, cool your home, fill your gas tank.
Every item you buy, every store you go to, you have to pay more for everything.
Some of you may have been lulled into this idea that you know things are okay with the economy.
Bidenomics is working.
The big lie.
Well, we had bank flat failures.
Well, well, that may be behind a stock market.
All right, it's not doing too bad.
Here's what you're not being told.
Yeah, inflation is coming back roaring back, and number two, uh commercial real estate could ignite the next banking crisis.
Look, inflation going up, skyrocketing payments on our national debt now exceeding 33 trillion for the first time in our history by a long shot, two trillion in new debt under Biden this year alone.
Anyway, what does this mean for your retirement savings?
Are you thinking about it?
Ever since I was finally able to save some money, I started small.
I took a small portion of my portfolio.
I wouldn't even call it a portfolio at that time in my life, but I always, you know, I got silver and I got gold.
And you know what?
I recently got a shipment from Goldco because I've done my research.
This is a top-rated company with an excellent reputation, I'm speaking from my own personal experience here, because I keep doing it today.
I've never regretted that decision.
Now, if and and I'm just putting always putting a small portion of my savings into gold.
Uh I've done my research.
You're gonna love Gold Co.
Top rated company.
Uh right now, if you call them 85515 gold, you're gonna get a free wealth protection kit up to $10,000.
You'll have a chance in free silver just because you're a listener to the show.
So you may want to do it now.
855-815 G O L D. All right, Gold Co.
Good people.
Really, you know what?
They were very, very I got exactly what I wanted.
And uh I was very happy with it.
Anyway, 800-941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
I told you yesterday about the shifting narrative of the the Biden's.
I never spoke to Hunter, my brother, or anybody, not a single time, nobody for that matter.
Okay, then that became out of nowhere.
The White House, you know, at the podium, they just started telling us, oh no, no, Joe uh was never in business with his son.
Very different than I never spoke to my son or my brother or anybody for that matter.
Very different.
Then it now is evolved into uh Hunter Biden's attorney, uh saying that the first son Hunter did not share his business or his profits with his father, marking another massive shift in what the narrative is.
Um listen.
Can you categorically say that the president of the United States was not involved in those business dealings and did not profit from any of them?
What I can say categorically is that the president has spoken to this issue and his spokespeople have, and they're the best people to do that.
From our side of the equation, I can tell you that Hunter did not share his business with his dad.
I can tell you that he did not share money from his businesses with his dad.
And as the evidence out there, his dad, like all good parents, tried to help Hunter when Hunter needed that help.
And if the facts matter, you can take a poll last week, you can take a poll next week.
But when the facts come out, and I hope they do, they will see, whoever has made that allegation that it is baseless.
But it does show you if the Republicans yell loud enough, at some point it actually cracks through and people believe it.
Well, let me ask, and by the way, he Hunter does have a great attorney.
I've said this before.
Pay attention.
Abby Lowell.
Abby Lowe got off John Edwards, he got off Senator Menendez.
Not easy trials tasks, but he did it.
He's really good at his job.
There's a reason that he himself changed the narrative on this.
There's always a reason behind anything this guy's gonna do.
He's he's that smart.
Uh, and I do have respect for a lot of respect for.
Um, however, you know, notice the very careful shift here.
He's not going into the fact that Joe uh has changed his story two previous times, and this is now the third evolution of this story.
And which I think is key.
You know.
Are you telling me you want to say something, or are you just looking in your microphone?
I am listening to me intently.
So the White House, Hunter Biden's team, they they shift the goalposts and they change the narrative.
But I would say there's obviously legal reasons behind it.
And anyway, so this is all going to come out in time.
They where they're gonna run into problems is what we already know.
And Nancy May said she thinks the Bidens alone combined north of 50 million dollars for the Biden family.
You know, why the 170 suspicious activity reports?
Why the the Shell Corporations?
How did nine Biden family members get paid, according to James Comer?
Uh what did they all do?
What did the grandchildren do for this money?
How is it that Hunter, struggling personally?
I I'm I if he's clean, I I wish him the best.
I don't wish that on anybody.
Okay, fair enough.
However, he admitted he was addicted at that time in his life, heavily addicted to drugs for many, many, many years during this time period, this time frame.
And he admitted on Good Morning America, no experience in energy, oil, gas, coal.
Then it raises the question well, what did he do for the money?
You know, well, he gave partial partial answer, Good Morning America.
Well, why do you why do you think that they gave you all this money with no experience?
I don't know.
That was his first answer.
I don't know.
And then the ABC Good Morning America interviewer, I don't know who it was.
I think it might have been Amy Robach, said, you know, well, um, you have no experience.
Why did they pay you all those money?
And do you think maybe it had to do with your daddy being the vice president in charge of Ukrainian policy?
You know?
I mean, I'll play it for you again.
It's it's this is priceless.
This is the dumbest interview I think a 50-year-old has ever given in history.
In the list that you gave me of the reasons why you're on that board, you did not list the fact that you were the son of the what role do you think that played?
I think that it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards that I just mentioned without saying that I'm the son of the vice president of the United States.
You were paid fifty thousand dollars a month for your position?
Look, I'm a private citizen.
One thing that I don't have to do is sit here and open my kimono as it relates to how much money I make or make or did or didn't.
But it's all been reported.
If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of Barisma?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Probably not.
I I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life that uh that if my last name wasn't Biden.
Oh.
So why did he get so lucky?
Why did all the other Biden family members had what did the grandkids do for the money?
He obviously didn't have much to say.
Uh by the way, just in Fed pausing rate hikes, markets drop after Powell says soft landing isn't guaranteed.
Well, I think that was pretty evident by the two months in a row, the inflation is starting to rise uh again.
And I think with the price of gasoline, that's a pretty good indicator.
Inflation is heating up.
So they'll play catch-up again.
This was a political move.
Uh, and I don't know what they're gonna do during an election year.
Uh let me go back to today's hearings with Merrick Garland for just a minute.
Let me play Congressman uh Representative Jeff Van Drew uh talking with Merrick Garland, saying the DOJ acted like a uh part of the the Democratic Party.
But let me uh instead of playing that one, I'll rather play when he asked Garland if traditional Catholics are violent extremists.
Finally, Carlin said no.
Attorney General, I need a simple yes or no to the following, just yes or no, because we don't have much time.
Do you agree that traditional Catholics are violent extremists?
Yes or no?
Let me answer what you've said in that long list of uh I'll be happy to answer all of those.
Attorney General, I control the time.
I'm gonna ask you to answer the questions I asked control time by asking me a substantial number of things, and let me know.
I didn't ask you those things.
I made the Attorney General through the chair.
I ask you, do you agree that traditional Catholics are violent extremists?
I have no idea what your what the traditional uh means here.
Let me just go to church.
May I answer your question?
The idea that someone with my family background would discriminate against any religion is so outrageous.
So absurd attorney general it was your FBI that did this.
It was your FBI that was sending, and we have the memos.
We have the emails.
We're sending undercover agents into Catholic churches.
Both I and the director of the FBI have said that the presentation is a very important thing to do.
Have said that we were appalled by that memo.
So then you agree that they're not extremists.
We were appalled by that memo.
Are they extremists or not, Attorney General?
I think that are they extremists or not, Attorney General.
Are they extremists or not?
I'm asking you simple questions.
Say no if you think that was wrong.
Well, finally, I mean, it was nice to finally get an answer there.
That was very nice of him to finally answer.
You know, after you wasted all that time.
So just the news.com, John Solomon, it'll be on Hannity tonight.
Newly discovered inquiry after the 2020 election into the payment of Hunter Biden's overdue taxes by a lawyer, but like every other investigative avenue, there was obstruction by prosecutors.
Here we go again.
You see a pattern emerging here.
Weaponization, how they politicize the FBI, the DOJ, the FBI and the IRS probed allegations of Joe Biden's 2020 presidential campaign.
Now they may have benefited from campaign finance criminal violations.
In other words, oh, you take away the issue of Hunter Biden not paying his taxes and have some, you know, sugar daddy pay the way for Hunter.
Boy, that certainly takes away a lot of a lot of a lot of problems for you in a campaign.
Is that a campaign donation?
Anyway, this previously unreported campaign finance inquiry was first alluded to in a transcript in interviews with House investigators and two IRS uh whistleblowers and the retired FBI supervisor whistleblower.
And allegations have since been augmented in recent weeks by new evidence uncovered by the House Ways and Means Committee, the Judiciary Committee, and the House Oversight Committee.
That evidence includes a case summary memo written by an IRS supervisory criminal investigative agent, the guy named Gary Shapley.
Remember him?
To his bosses, in which he alleged that Leslie Wolf, a top prosecutor in the Hunter Biden case inside of Delaware with U.S. attorney David Weiss's office, waived agents off the campaign finance case.
Just like the FBI uh waived off, you know, pulled it back from their questioning that they were going to have of Hunter Biden.
Surprise questioning.
Just like every other thing happened here.
This investigation had been hampered and slowed by claims of potential meddling.
The IRS whistleblow blower Shapley wrote in the memo, according to his now public transcribed interview with the House Ways and Means Committee, where he read verbatim a passage from the memo.
Through interviews and review of evidence obtained, it appears there may be campaign finance criminal violations.
Wow.
Wolf stated that the last prosecution team meeting that she did not want any of the agents looking into the allegation.
Well, I uh would they do that if it was Donald Trump?
Is that a hard question to answer?
By the way, Hunter will now plead not guilty to federal gun charges.
What a what a shock.
Uh by the way, I wonder if the Hunter have we ever gotten a copy of the Hunter Biden la um mugshot?
They take a mugshot of him?
We even know they did, didn't they?
We got Trump's pretty quick.
When did we get his?
Trump had that little scowl.
Looked mean.
Like tough.
I didn't think he looked mean.
I thought he looked good.
He looked like a boss.
I got a kick out of like reading.
Oh, this person says, oh, now he has street cred.
No, did you just be selling them?
He's signing them and selling them.
It's hilarious.
It's amazing.
Um, oh, and by the way, the DHS's name, get this.
James Clapper and John Brennan to intelligence experts panel.
Great.
Bring back the ban.
That's what we need.
Unreal.
Uh now we also have House Republicans now set a date for their first Biden impeachment hearing.
Mark your calendars, nine days from today.
Joe Biden will become the first president in American history to face an impeachment inquiry that is based on Mounting evidence involving bribery, money laundering, allegations.
Uh, ouch.
Uh, that would be constitutional Article 2, Section 4.
The president, vice president, all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for conviction of treason, bribery, other high crimes and misdemeanors.
Democrats are flipping out over this.
And big time, they're flipping out over this.
Uh, anyway, we got Byron Donald's coming up today.
We're also gonna check in with all things simple man Bill O'Reilly today and much more.
Hey, you know, if you're in business with companies, by the way, you know a company that's really looking out for you when you they will actually upgrade your service and not charge you a penny for it.

We have four people on tape saying that in the days before January 6th, that Donald Trump had a meeting in the Oval Office, and four of the five people in that meeting.
I have on tape saying that Donald Trump said, do we need guard troops?
And that he authorized them.
Trump said it.
His chief of staff, Mark Meadows said it.
Cash Patel said it, and the acting secretary of defense Miller said it.
And I believe that General Milley was also in the room, said it in an inspector general report, or something to that effect.
Anyway, the former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sun, he's now told House investigators what he told us on this program that Nancy Pelosi refused repeated request to call out the National Guard during the January 6th riots.
He maintains that he called the National Guard six times for three days before the attack, but they did not deploy.
Now, I'm predicting Democratic Party's newfound respect for Capitol Police may vanish here.
But you know, the worst thing in all of this is what measures had they cared about anything other than bludgeoning Trump could they have put in place to make sure this never happens again?
And where's the where's the committee looking into the you know 574 riots in the summer of 2020 that killed dozens, billions in property damage, thousands of injured cops?
What is that?
No, they don't want that.
