The media won't cover the Biden syndicate at all but the evidence is clear that, at a minimum, there's enough evidence to warrant an indictment ... that IS what an impeachment is! You'd never know from the news media coverage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

| Toll-free, our number is 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| We got a lot of stuff to get to today. | |
| I mean, a lot. | |
| Do I like giving out bad economic news? | |
| I don't like giving out bad economic news, do I? | |
| But there's nothing good, there's no good news to give out. | |
| Now we're back four dollars a barrel, uh, four dollars a gallon for gasoline, a hundred and fifty uh dollars a barrel. | |
| We now have at least three predictions this week that that's gonna happen. | |
| That is a disaster. | |
| That means, yep, get ready. | |
| Inflation already, it's now it's already gone up the last two months again. | |
| Now it's expected to go higher in spite of all those interest rate hikes not working. | |
| Uh, and this is all rooted in Joe Biden's idiotic energy and economic policies. | |
| They're not working. | |
| And by the way, uh Democrats are urging Biden, yeah, stop calling it Bidenomics because it's a national joke. | |
| Just like Colleen Jean Pierre earlier, there's nobody earlier today, there's nobody ever that has done more to secure the border than Joe Biden. | |
| I'm like, stop lying to us. | |
| I can't stand it. | |
| You know, the border's closed. | |
| No, it's not. | |
| The border's secure. | |
| No, it is not. | |
| He's done more than anybody to make the border secure. | |
| No, he hasn't. | |
| There's no no president in history that has done more to aid and abet law breaking at our border than Joe Biden. | |
| And God only knows how many terror cells, because of Biden's open borders, have made it into our towns and cities, and God only knows, God help us what they are plotting, planning, and scheming to do to this country. | |
| And it's gonna happen. | |
| And it's predictable as the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. | |
| It's not complicated to figure out. | |
| Then they will have blood on their hands because they've allowed all of this to happen. | |
| All the fentanyl, the listen. | |
| Say what you will about the cartels, they're evil. | |
| They live off, you know, people dying in people's misery and shaking down poor people and giving them wristbands and threatening their families if they don't send money back from America to pay for them helping to cross into America illegally. | |
| But you know, they're not stupid, so they flood the zone and at the border in one sector. | |
| And meanwhile, you know, every resource we have is on the ground dealing with the overflow that they can't handle to begin with. | |
| And that leaves the entire rest of the border wide open for human trafficking, drug trafficking, and every other sort of crime that they're making billions of dollars with. | |
| Joe Joe's enabling them, not doing anything to stop it. | |
| And when the opioids, you know, make it into the mouths of your children and fentanyl laced whatever that's killing our kids, you know, that this is all preventable. | |
| That's the problem with everything with Joe Biden. | |
| We know how to it we know about law and order. | |
| You just hire the police, train them, let them do their job. | |
| Guess what? | |
| Your cities, your towns will be more safe, more secure, so you can actually Pursue happiness. | |
| They know that the school system's a mess. | |
| They don't care. | |
| You know, they've had have had this unholy alliance with teachers unions forever. | |
| You know, that's why you know we pay more per capita per student on education than any other industrialized country with the absolute worst results. | |
| Again, another year. | |
| Nobody's lifted a finger in Baltimore. | |
| 13 high schools. | |
| No, no kids proficient in anything. | |
| Not one. | |
| Not one student is proficient. | |
| Math, uh, English. | |
| They're not proficient. | |
| Let me tell you what we've done. | |
| We failed those kids. | |
| If those kids aren't safe and secure in their city, their town on the way to school, guess what? | |
| We have failed them at a very high level. | |
| These are not complicated problems. | |
| They're easy to fix. | |
| If I can tell you what the simple solution is, trust me, it's easy. | |
| You know, you secure your border, you hire the police, you become energy independent. | |
| That's going to help the economy, which is where we started. | |
| I'd love, you know, you gotta you when you read like I did today, Democratic allies are encouraging President Joe Biden's reelection campaign to reevaluate and ditch the idiocy of Bidenomics, the tagline as it fails to improve voter attitudes on the economy. | |
| Well, why should it improve voter attitudes on the economy? | |
| Now we're back to $4 a gallon gasoline. | |
| Live in California, so I wouldn't have believed it if I saw didn't see it with my own eyes. | |
| $7 a gallon for gasoline. | |
| The average in Southern California is $6.89 a gallon. | |
| Mike, I mean, that is that is so preventable. | |
| We've got more oil, gas, energy than all of these Middle Eastern countries and Russia combined. | |
| And yet we are beholden to them. | |
| And as their biggest customer, what have they decided to do? | |
| Cut back on production. | |
| We've already eliminated and reduced dramatically the world's supply of energy by cutting back and putting massive restrictions on oil companies and uh exploration and development. | |
| So you know, they keep starting, well, what about the 9,000 permits that are not one of those permits is a guaranteed gusher. | |
| It's not a it's not guaranteed to produce anything. | |
| And now you pay, you pay the price, and you pay the price, you know, five different ways in Sunday. | |
| You pay the price at the pump, you pay a lot more to fill your gas tank up. | |
| You pay the price to heat and cool your home, you pay the price for over-the-road truckers that deliver every item to every store you go to, and that cost is then passed on to you. | |
| So everything you buy, every place you go costs more. | |
| Already Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, 61% of them. | |
| And many, many Americans cannot make, you know, they can't even get the bare necessities. | |
| Now they got to think about tapping into their pensions with a massive penalty, or even worse, many people using their credit cards just to break even every month. | |
| Okay, the interest on that is over 20%. | |
| They're suffering needlessly. | |
| So now with this past summer, maybe that's why they made the switch yesterday. | |
| Oh, let's go back to those evil, rascally MAGA Republican. | |
| What is a MAGA republican? | |
| Make America great again. | |
| I'd like America to be great again. | |
| Donald Trump, he never once had the average uh gallon of gasoline cost over cost three bucks. | |
| Never once reached the $3 mark in the entire entire presidency. | |
| And then guess what? | |
| Inflation was 1.4%. | |
| Now we're crawling back up to 4%. | |
| And let me tell you, that plays a massive role in our lives. | |
| Want to know why new home construction stopped? | |
| Because of the high interest rates that they've they've had to keep raising to try and get inflation under control. | |
| And it's not working. | |
| What does that mean? | |
| We're gonna have more interest rate hikes. | |
| That means new home construction is gonna be non-existent in no time at all. | |
| What does it mean for sale of pre-existing homes? | |
| Well, it means that they're not selling homes. | |
| People can't sell homes. | |
| They can't afford to sell their home because they can't afford to get rid of a three or four percent 30-year fixed rate mortgage and turn it in for a seven and a half uh percent Uh uh 30-year fixed rate mortgage. | |
| The cost is astronomical. | |
| It's thousands of dollars a month extra. | |
| Interest payments, extra. | |
| That's where that money goes. | |
| And then they want to spend send all this money to Ukraine and Europe's not even doing their fair share. | |
| And then they want to spend all of this money on Green New Deal projects, one after the other, are failing. | |
| We have all these blue state governors begging Biden, yeah, the money you gave us for the windmills and for the turbines and for this and for that, all your green energy. | |
| We don't have enough to keep it going. | |
| Well, what do they do now? | |
| Senate Republicans now moving to defund Biden's green energy czar. | |
| Well, it's about time some senators are doing something because under Mitch McConnell who made this idiotic deal with Schumer on spending at astronomical levels. | |
| Well, we just added two trillion dollars to the debt under this stupid plan of theirs. | |
| Why would we keep doing that? | |
| Well, Republicans are gonna shut down the uh they're gonna they're gonna shut down the government in in just a couple of days, tomorrow at midnight. | |
| I'm like, well, I wish it weren't the case. | |
| I know that I talked to Congressman Chip Roy today. | |
| I mean, they actually have a 30-day funding bill so that Republicans can in the House can come up with their 12 appropriations bills and vote on those. | |
| And and uh frankly, it's it's a good compromise for 30 days. | |
| They're talking about a 30% uh less defense veterans programs, et cetera, uh cut to the current spending levels. | |
| Well, we need that. | |
| You know, it used to be Connie Mack, great congressman, Southwest Florida, had what he called the penny plan. | |
| I've always supported it, and that was you you you reduce government spending. | |
| Now, understand only Washington does math like this. | |
| They have what's called baseline budgeting, and every year they would increase spending in these programs, you know, anyway from seven, eight, nine, ten percent, whatever the number happened to be. | |
| And Connie Mack said, okay, if we come up with a penny that we cut out of every dollar Washington spends, and we did that every year for seven years, we would have balanced our budget. | |
| Now we got 33 trillion dollars. | |
| And I'll tell you that the next best way is to implement some version of that. | |
| Probably now we're up to the you know, quarter plan or the or the nickel plan or the dime plan. | |
| I don't know what it would be to get it done in seven years. | |
| If we coupled that with energy dominance and we provided Western Europe and our allied nations all the energy they need, we'd be we'd be an energy-rich country. | |
| I mean, we keep hearing about with the energy rich countries, you know, Saudi Arabia, you know, they're they want to buy the PGA, they want to buy this sports league, that sports league, this investment here, billions here, billions there, billions everywhere. | |
| They're they're drowning in money because they're an oil-rich nation, and we've got more natural resources than them, and frankly, cleaner energy. | |
| While Donald Trump made the country energy independent, he also did more than any nation on the face of the earth to reduce carbon emissions. | |
| Nobody wants to talk about that in large part because of our increasing reliance on natural gas, which is clean burning, which apparently none of the people that lecture us on the you know follow the science nonsense ever seem to want to follow the science on. | |
| Anyway, so Senate Republicans start led by Ted Cruz and Cynthia Loomis introducing a bill today that would strip the federal salary from Biden's uh uh green energy czar and effectively defund Ann Carlson. | |
| I never even heard of Ann Carlson serving as the acting administrator for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. | |
| He said Biden's said Biden's EV mandates and subsidies may have inspired uh been inspired by radical politicians in deep blue states, but they put since they've been put into practice by unaccountable bureaucrats like Ann Carlson with the current strike, | |
| it is now becoming increasingly obvious that the left's full-fledged assault on popular gas-powered cars and trucks is causing chaos in the auto sector, and it's no wonder workers are concerned about their long-term job security. | |
| And by the way, that idiot UAW president, let me talk to all you rank and file guys out there. | |
| Fire That guy. | |
| Why is he kissing Biden's ass? | |
| You want to know what's putting your jobs at risk? | |
| It's your it's your uh president of the UAW supporting this idiot who supports the electric vehicle mandates. | |
| That's what's losing jobs. | |
| It's specifically in that sector. | |
| Ford lost 4.5 billion dollars on their EV line last year alone. | |
| So you UAW workers, I support you. | |
| I want you to get more money. | |
| I also want the biggest profit sharing opportunities that's ever been offered to any group of workers in America so that all of you pull in the same direction, and whatever percentage the CEO gets in terms of benefits or pay based on performance, you guys deserve that. | |
| That's what I'm supporting. | |
| And you get a nice hourly wage. | |
| You can raise your family. | |
| If you don't meet, you know, if you don't hit the bonus level, you work harder next year, and then you guys will start making some real money, which you do all deserve because you make amazing cars. | |
| I just ordered another car. | |
| I'm not gonna get it forever, but you know, I bought a I I don't haven't bought always American, mostly always American. | |
| I try to buy American. | |
| Although, you know, sometimes you buy American, but you know, even like you know, Hondas are made in the uh in in the USA. | |
| A lot of people may not know that. | |
| A lot of foreign cars are made right here. | |

| So Delaware, verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts. | |
| Well, this is really interesting news. | |
| By the way, I don't blame Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at all. | |
| He's about to announce we expect October the 9th in Pennsylvania his plans to run as an independent. | |
| His campaign is now planning attack ads against the Democratic National Committee in order to pave the way for his announcement in Philadelphia about running as an independent. | |
| Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy, so an independent run is the only way to go. | |
| I'm going to tell you something. | |
| Linda, correct me if I'm wrong here. | |
| I don't agree with everything that Bobby Kennedy, uh Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says. | |
| I kind of like him. | |
| Uh you've met him. | |
| You know he's a good he's a good guy, right? | |
| I like him a lot. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And you actually agree with some of his views. | |
| I agree with a lot of what he says, actually. | |
| I think he's a disruptor. | |
| Don't go there. | |
| Thank you. | |
| I'm saying this affectionately. | |
| All right. | |
| So he's going to run a third party. | |
| And you know why? | |
| Because his party treated him like crap. | |
| That's why. | |
| And they stacked the deck against him on purpose, just to prop up the you know, the cognitive mess known as Joe Biden. | |
| He's had no choice. | |
| He's been banned pretty much from all mainstream media. | |
| I did a town hall with him because I thought it was total BS, the blackout of him. | |
| And you know what? | |
| I let him talk. | |
| I didn't sit there thinking that I'm the other presidential candidate. | |
| It was my role to debate him. | |
| No, I let him give his views. | |
| I don't agree with everything, but at least people got to hear him. | |
| And they've set it up so he has no chance, and now he's saying, you know what? | |
| the hell with you. | |
| Now that we made some money for our sponsors, let's go back to making the liberals crazy. | |
| The handman is back on the radio right now. | |
| At 25 to the top of the hour, uh 800-941 Shauna's on number. | |
| You're just joining us uh this show's breaking that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. now planning to announce he will run as an independent on October 9th. | |
| That announcement expected in Pennsylvania. | |
| Uh that's reported by Mediaite, Kennedy's campaign, now planning attack ads against the DNC in order to pave the way for his announcement in Philly about running as an independent. | |
| Bobby Fields, the DNC changing the rules to exclude his candidacy. | |
| So uh an independent run is the only way to go. | |
| I I can't how could you blame him? | |
| How does Joe Biden just say, uh, yeah, I want to start in South Carolina because I did so horribly in Iowa and New Hampshire the last time. | |
| So I think I'll do better in South Carolina. | |
| Oh, he just make up the rules as you go along. | |
| You know, then they still have, by the way, the these the idiocy that is known as the superdelegates, even though they say they don't have this the superdelegates. | |
| Uh that's going to be interesting to watch. | |
| Biden administration is rewriting the history of COVID today. | |
| The head of OSHA claimed we didn't demand that anyone be fired, despite issuing a worker vaccine mandate for 84 million Americans that was finally struck down by the Supreme Court uh, you know, by the previous press secretary. | |
| They just lie. | |
| All these people just, I mean, this administration is so full of nothing but lies. | |
| Anyway, toll free on numbers 800, 941 Sean. | |
| Look, we all need in some way, uh you gotta be ready for the worst in life because there's a lot of evil in this world. | |
| And, you know, I have my own personal security strategy. | |
| I've had it in place for many, many years. | |
| Uh, you know, beyond training and in martial arts, I don't know, going on 11 and a half, 12 years now. | |
| I don't even know. | |
| But, you know, four days a week at least, hour and a half a day, and I do it because I'd I'd rather protect myself with my hands, even though I don't ever want to hit anybody. | |
| I don't ever want to be in that situation. | |
| However, I'm realistic enough to know that there's enough evil people out there that we've all got to be prepared. | |
| And that's why all my adult life I've also carried, uh have a concealed carrier permit. | |
| Uh it's why you've heard me talk and rave, and I mean rave about this new technology, non-lethal force of burner. | |
| You spell it B Y R N A. You go to burner.com slash Hannity, and it's not just any self-defense tool. | |
| I can hit from 40 feet away. | |
| Somebody breaks into your house, maybe you don't want to go right to the lethal option. | |
| I mean, you once you pull that weapon out, you better be prepared to use it. | |
| So I have a self-defense strategy, personal security strategy. | |
| It's well thought out. | |
| Gone over it with many experts. | |
| And you know, I have options. | |
| One of my options is the non-lethal choice of a burner. | |
| And, you know, the good thing is it it shoots projectiles, looks like a firearm, fires like a firearm, doesn't have any recoil. | |
| And, you know, I can again, it's accurate as all get out. | |
| And what happens is it it hits a perpetrator, immediately releases tear gas and and varying pepper sprays and incapacitates any perpetrator. | |
| He hit him twice with this thing, forget it. | |
| That's You have all the time in the world to escape. | |
| And you get out of there, and then you don't have to worry about what the aftermath might be or the complexities that might follow the use of lethal force. | |
| I think every I think every police department in the country should get this. | |
| It's so good. | |
| Linda, you love yours. | |
| Uh it's part of your personal security strategy as well. | |
| Yeah, it is. | |
| And so is their bad guy repellent and their shield. | |
| And if you go to Handy D.com, you can see the whole Hannity package that they got up right now. | |
| It's awesome. | |
| And by the way, I mean, you can protect yourself and have it at uh at an available any point in time. | |
| It's really an amazing technology. | |
| You're gonna love it. | |
| Uh look, I the only way I'm really going to be able to convince you, please take a minute. | |
| That's all it'll take. | |
| Go to their website, burner.com/slash Hannity. | |
| Not only will you get 10% off, they've got videos there. | |
| Are you on their videos yet? | |
| I know you took videos. | |
| I am on a couple of them, yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Okay. | |
| Just look at those that take they there, they have volunteers, they're people in the company, they get hit with a projectile. | |
| Watch what happens to them. | |
| The one of the guy that's like throwing up cracks me up. | |
| But I mean, it's really effective, a non-lethal option. | |
| Go to their website, BYRNA.com/slash Hannity. | |
| Please, please have something to use to protect yourself and your family. | |
| Uh big announcement. | |
| RFK Jr. running as an independent. | |
| Um, and I'll tell you what else has happened. | |
| The media mob, all they've done is ignore and attack him. | |
| All Democrats and liberals have done is ignore and attack him and stack the deck that he has no shot at all whatsoever. | |
| There's no forget about freedom in Democratic Party politics. | |
| So he's like saying the hell with you. | |
| I'm gonna do it on my own. | |
| I'll run independent. | |
| I can't say what the, you know, do I think conservatives will support him? | |
| Some people really love his positions on vaccinations. | |
| I know a lot of people that do. | |
| Uh when I did um my town hall with him, he's a nice, he's a really nice guy. | |
| Didn't you think he's a nice guy, Linda? | |
| Very much so. | |
| Very nice guy. | |
| And I, you know, and he and I've had our battles over the years. | |
| It was not easy to get him to come on my show. | |
| I was just kind of mean to him one time. | |
| I didn't mean to be. | |
| I regret sometimes being mean to people. | |
| Uh anyway, so we'll see. | |
| Uh one other thing. | |
| Um, oh, JD Vance, I meant to say this. | |
| If the United Auto workers want to protect their jobs, boost their pay, JD Vance wants to help them. | |
| Because Joe Biden needs to end the electric vehicle subsidies. | |
| Uh, and even though they're getting subsidized, you know, for example, you know, it knocks off the price of an EV by 7500, you're still paying 15 grand more than you would for a gas-powered vehicle. | |
| And you still have the battery problem. | |
| Uh, anyway, these subsidies aren't what's keeping the whole electric uh electric vehicle industry alive. | |
| You know, Ford lost 4.5 billion on their EV line. | |
| It's not working because people don't want them. | |
| And the people that did want them were buying, they're already buying Tesla. | |
| Anyway, so you know that that I think is a big thing. | |
| One other thing about RFK Jr., which is interesting to me, is he's like the only Democrat out there who's been blasting the Biden administration, you know, and the border crisis. | |
| He's not buying Karine Jean-Pierre. | |
| I'll play it later in the show today. | |
| Actually, saying there's nobody, there's never been a president that has done more to secure the border than Joe Biden. | |
| The media mob just sits there and takes those lies. | |
| The border is closed, the border's secure. | |
| No, it's not. | |
| Anyway, he says he is challenging Biden's open border policy on humanitarian grounds. | |
| And, you know, he said apparently illegal immigrants have been flying directly into the U.S. on commercial aircraft without even having to cross the border. | |
| That's the new Biden app. | |
| Come into the U.S., no background checks, come for free. | |
| Pick one of 43 great cities you can live in. | |
| And he says that, you know, he's picked up that this has happened. | |
| He says they do it through Biden's, you know, CBP one app. | |
| That's an app available Around the world, meant for asylum seekers, but they're supposed to go through vetting. | |
| They don't go through any vetting. | |
| It's like the people at the border aren't being vetted. | |
| That's why I can guarantee I guarantee you there are terror cells that have made it into this country. | |
| We're going to be attacked as a result of Biden's weak border policies and his wide open border policies. | |
| Anyway, and he has said they have enriched the murdering card drug cartels to the detriment of, you know, honest people that want a better life for themselves and their families. | |
| He's not wrong. | |
| One other thing about Kennedy, I think is interesting. | |
| Well, I think that's the other thing. | |
| Elon Musk, he actually took the time to go to the border. | |
| Kamala Harris won't do it. | |
| Go to the real border where real things are. | |
| She went down there once for like a half a minute, and it was a photo op. | |
| Just like Biden's trip was a photo op. | |
| Just like his 12 minutes on the picket line with the UAW workers was a photo op. | |
| Anyway, so Elon Musk met with Eagle Pass uh mayor Roland Salinas Jr. at the border yesterday, uh, where he discovered the Biden administration policies were allowing known murderers into the country. | |
| Now he's going to be criticized. | |
| Well, you watch. | |
| They're going to be hammering him. | |
| He's xenophobic. | |
| No, he's not. | |
| It's common sense. | |
| He said, just feet away from a waiting area occupied by multitudes of military age male illegal aliens. | |
| He said, quote, what we're seeing here are some cases, you know, some pretty extreme individuals are coming through. | |
| And he said, yeah, not that you judge people by how they look, but he said, yeah, they have face tattoos, including tears. | |
| By the way, am I wrong? | |
| Isn't that hasn't that been historically a symbol, Linda? | |
| Because he said that it's a sign they have murdered someone and they're so proud of having murdered someone that they tattoo one tear on their face for every one person that they killed. | |
| I know gangs used to do that. | |
| Is that still the practice? | |
| Do you know? | |
| It actually means that a loved one has been killed in a murder. | |
| So typically they get the tears for the friends and family that they've lost, is my understanding. | |
| Thank you for knowing more about gang culture than I do. | |
| Yes, you're welcome. | |
| I appreciate it. | |
| I, you know. | |
| I'm here to help. | |
| That's what I'm here for. | |
| That is very helpful. | |
| But he's but he's right about that too. | |
| You know, it's these are amazing times we're living in. | |
| Unreal. | |
| Um, on the deep state, we've got a smoking bazooka. | |
| Hunter Biden confessed to paying Joe's credit card bills for 11 years. | |
| This is on top of half my income goes to Pops. | |
| This is on top of the emails to the financial uh partner, Rosemond Seneca, or some guy named Eric Sherwin. | |
| And he had these emails with Eric. | |
| Oh, here's dad's home repair bills. | |
| Uh what account should I pay this from? | |
| On top of 10% for the big guy held in trust by H. Hunter. | |
| Uh anyway, so there's some bombshell evidence implicating Joe Biden's uh Joe Biden involved in Hunter's farm business dealings. | |
| I didn't hear it come up during yesterday's first impeachment inquiry hearing. | |
| Byron Donald, I thought did a great job introducing the text message where Hunter complains that he had to share half his income with Pops. | |
| That's a confession that implicates Joe Biden and everything else that Hunter did. | |
| Another text, even more damning. | |
| Hunter tells his assistant he's been paying Joe's credit card bills for 11 years. | |
| And by the way, that's easily going to be accessible. | |
| And in April of 2018, in a text thread with his assistant, Katie Dodge Hunter wrote that his Wells Fargo's account shut me out again. | |
| Too many crooks in the kit cooks in the kitchen, he said too many profile changes and such happened ten uh days ago, too. | |
| What do we what do you need? | |
| I'm I'm I'm gonna bank in a few. | |
| I need to verify the identity in person. | |
| And he said, Katie says, I need to pay ATT. | |
| Hunter says my dad has been using most lines on this account, which I, through the gracious offerings of Eric Sherwin, have been paying the past 11 years. | |
| Whoopsie Daisy put all these texts together, all this together, and that's not a smoking gun. | |
| That's a smoking bazooka. | |
| You know, House Republicans should open any future Biden impeachment hearings, You know, focus on these texts. | |
| Alan Dershowitz is saying Joe Biden could be charged with bribery based on the cash wired to family members. | |
| Oh, it's not just Jonathan Turley. | |
| We have another Democrat that's honest. | |
| That would be Alan Dershowitz. | |
| And uh, you know, just oh, there's no evidence against Biden. | |
| That's another lie. | |
| That's like saying the borders closed and the border secure. | |
| Uh now, anyway, uh, what Alan Dershwit said, and this was injured. | |
| I think there's more than enough evidence to persuade an unbiased grand jury to indict Joe Biden. | |
| And that's what impeachment is an indictment. | |
| Joe Biden's actual guilt or innocence would be decided in a trial conducted by the Senate. | |
| Well, there's no shot of a guilty verdict, but he still should be impeached. | |
| But there were other comments by Mr. Turley that the media won't touch. | |
| For example, you're not going to be reading anything today about his argument that Joe Biden could be charged with bribery based on the foreign cash that his money, his family collected from Hunter Shady Foreign Business Deals, even if none of the payments were made to Joe Biden directly. | |
| That is highly relevant. | |
| Nine Biden family members were enriched. | |
| Nancy May says it's going to be north of 50 million for the Bidens alone. | |
| Dershowitz, another noted legal scholar, agrees with Turley on that point. | |
| And Dershowitz told the Daily Caller there are cases in which payments made to family members can be treated as bribery of principle if he's aware of it. | |
| Of course he knew he was making this money, and of course he knew that his bills were being paid. | |
| Now here's the next couple of steps. | |
| One, Washington Examiner uh has this today. | |
| This House Impeachment Inquiry Committee has now subpoenaed the evidence, and when they get it, we'll put an end to the complaints from Democrats that there's no evidence, although there's a mountain of it. | |
| Comer is now subpoenaed the bank records for Hunter and Jim Biden. | |
| It's about time. | |
| Then, after we get those, then we need to hear from Hunter and Jim Biden. | |
| I would imagine both will plead the fifth. | |
| Anyone want to go against my prediction? | |
| You know, Hunter Biden expected all this stuff to go away once Joey, his pops became president, according to new emails released by the House Ways and Means Committee. | |
| The stuff being uh the federal investigation into a shady barn business deals with some of our most hostile enemies. | |
| Anyway, well, you know, we've learned a lot. | |
| That's why I had Jim Jordan, James Comer, and Jason Smith on last night because they had the first impeachment inquiry yesterday. | |
| Records of the millions flowing into the bank accounts of Biden family members from the cash generated from Hunter's work. | |
| What work? | |
| What did they do for that money? | |
| Proof positive that despite years of just lying, Joe not only talked to uh business with Hunter, but he was actively involved in phone calls and dinners with these foreign business partners, including Russian oligarchs. | |
| Whistleblower revelations from senior IRS officials detailing how the DOJ, weaponized as it is, frustrated efforts to investigate Hunter wherever the leads may go. | |
| Emails revealing that Joe, Joe Biden's sudden 2015 effort to oust the Ukrainian prosecutor came as a shock to the Obama people running point on the country. | |
| Why did Joe do that? | |
| Because that went against official Obama administration policy. | |
| You know, the credible FBI informant alleging the Barisma head, Zolacheski claimed, yeah, five million and one Biden, five million or another, and you won't find where the money is for ten years. | |
