Here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All right, news roundup, information overload hour.
Here's our toll-free number.
It's 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Let me go back and look at the Twitter account of Joe Biden.
This is before Joe Biden was president.
It says, President Trump withheld congressionally appropriated aid to Ukraine unless they granted him a political favor.
It's the definition of quid pro quo.
This is no joke.
So, you know, Joe actually might have written this himself.
This is no joke.
Trump continues to put his own personal political interest ahead of the national interest.
He must be impeached.
And we had an impeachment.
Now, he was not convicted in that impeachment, but that was the phone call to Zelensky about the issue of corruption and whether or not he was going to be like his predecessors and misappropriate funds that were allocated for Ukraine or whether or not America's money would not be wasted as it happened in the past.
All right, let's fast forward to Tony Winken, Tony Blinken.
And this is right after congressional funds, if you will, to use Joe Biden's term, congressionally appropriated monies to Israel.
Well, now they're conditional.
Tony Blinken saying, Wink and Blinken, if Israel invades Rafah, there's certain systems we're not going to be supplying for that operation.
Oh, really?
And then Joe Biden saying he will withhold weapons from Israel if they go into Rafa.
Well, it sounds like they're taking congressionally appropriated aid to Israel, and it will only be given or granted unless they do what they want.
That sounds like the definition of a quid and a pro and a quo by Joe.
Listen.
What we've been clear about is that if Israel launches this major military operation into Rafa, then there's certain systems that we're not going to be supporting and supplying for that operation.
I made it clear that if they go into Rafah, they haven't gone on Rafah yet.
If they go into Rafah, I'm not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with Rafah, to deal with the cities, to deal with that problem.
I've made it clear to BB and the war cabinet.
They're not going to get our support if, in fact, they go on these population centers.
We're not walking away from Israel's security.
We're walking away from Israel's ability to wage war in those areas.
So it's not over your red line yet?
Not yet, but we've held up the weapons.
We've held up the one shipment as an old shipment who has been designed.
We've held that up.
Now the issue is, well, where are all those Democrats that wanted the impeachment of Donald Trump over an alleged quid pro quo?
Anyway, Congressman Corey Mills of Florida, he's taking note, and he's looking at the Joe Quid pro quo.
And by the way, it's not his only quid pro quo.
Remember, Joe was vice president.
Remember, it was an interagency approval that Ukraine had made enough progress on the issue of Ukraine and corruption that they decided to go ahead with loan guarantees.
John Solomon, just thenews.com, wrote about that, that that had happened in October of 2015.
And then Joe Biden went to Ukraine, and that's when he bragged about at the Council of Foreign Relations years later.
Well, it turns out that his son Hunter, who went on Good Morning America, admitted he had no experience in energy, oil, gas, coal, any of it.
Or Ukraine was being paid millions to sit on the board of Barisva at a time when he admits he was addicted to crack cocaine and other heavy drugs.
Anyway, you would think, wow, that's a big deal.
That's a real quid pro quo.
But these are two quid pro quos now.
This one taken as president, that would make it an impeachable offense.
At least if you believe Joe Biden, this is no joke.
Because Joe Biden continued to put his personal political interest ahead of the national interest, and he's got to be impeached for the quid pro quo.
Anyway, Congressman Corey Mills of Florida is with us now.
Congressman, how are you?
I'm doing well, Sean, and thanks so much for having me on.
Well, I fully support what you're doing.
And the very Democrats, this is their definition of what a quid pro quo is.
It's not like you're doing anything different than they didn't do, correct?
Well, that's exactly right.
And in fact, I actually used 95% of Jerry Nadler's own language so that I'm hoping he gets on board when they set the precedent.
Yeah.
All right.
So it's a quid pro quo.
You can throw all their words back in their face.
And I know that you have now moved forward.
You're filing articles of impeachment.
I believe you filed them.
Yes, they are filed.
We have code.
Again, this violation is with quid pro quo, which is the abuse of power.
But we could also add, and we are, two other, I guess, amendments, if you will, which is one, the violation of the take care clause, where he is not enforcing the border laws or the overstepping and actually bypassing of SCODAs to a law that was said to allocate money for this tuition bailout.
And again, the whole reason for all of this, as you've talked about on your show numerous times, Sean, is that he's trying to buy votes.
That's exactly what he's doing with the Israeli funding.
He is actually looking at Michigan, who had 13.2%, 101,457 votes, who wrote down uncommitted.
And that was I thought it was 18.9%.
Am I mistaken or are you mistaken?
We're close, but it does matter.
2%, over 101,000 votes that was written down as uncommitted, not the other individuals, but uncommitted, which was received to lab what she had requested.
But the bottom line is he's also pandering to the radical left pro-Hoba sympathizers on these college campuses.
This is a very clear, I'm withholding money in return for political favor to try and win an election.
That is PRIDQuo Joe is what I call it.
It's not even quid pro quo anymore.
But the bottom line is that we've allowed them to continue to do this.
There's been no responsibility, no accountability.
And I'm tired of more hearings and more evidence being submitted when we have far more than what they had against President Trump.
And it's time for us to take action.
Well, what has the response been among Republicans?
Because I know that the House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer and the House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan have been working their tail off in this impeachment inquiry.
And unfortunately, with the very narrow, what, one seat margin that Republicans have in the House, it has become near mission impossible because, you know, you've got X number of rhino Republicans that, frankly, are afraid of their own shadow and won't take the appropriate steps and won't even apply the same standards of what a quid pro quo is to Joe Biden.
And that's frustrating to me.
Well, it's frustrating to us all, Sean.
But at the end of the day, I'm going to move this as a privileged motion, which means it will get a vote.
And then we'll actually allow each one of these Republicans and Democrats to truly show their real colors and to out themselves.
Yeah.
All right.
So now let's talk about the colleagues that are supporting you.
How many people have immediately jumped on board with you?
Well, we've got quite a few that's already on there.
People like Byron Donalds, Wesley Hunt, Brane Lauren Bober, the list goes on and on, Mark Alford.
So it's not just Freedom Caucus, but it's others as well.
And so it keeps rolling along.
My biggest reason why there's not more names on it currently is just because I'm sick and tired, Sean, to be honest, with just sitting around and waiting for Joe Biden to continue to abuse his powers or just go to his elimination of the power of separation of powers.
But we have to do something, Joe.
And the American people elected the Republicans to govern and to hold those accountable who are being unconstitutional.
I don't think there is any president who's been more constitutional and weaponizing lawfare, weaponizing the federal government for its espionage-like events on Americans, continuing to have his abuse of power, and now even bypassing the Supreme Court and Article 1, which is the legislation of appropriating aid, to continue with the bailout of tuition funds, which is nothing more than buying votes.
And I think you can add to it what Joe Biden admits in his own words, that he demanded a prosecutor get fired in Iran going against the administration at the time, the Obama administration's own policy.
And that was something that directly benefited his son because his son was under investigation along with Burisma Holdings, I would assume, because of his position as a board member.
Is that correct?
You're exactly right.
I mean, again, it's 10% for the big guy.
But I step further on the quid pro quo that I've submitted just to say he knew what was in this aid package before it actually left the House, before it left the Senate, and before he signed it.
He was aware of exactly how it was going to be utilized.
And the left has come unglued.
The radical left is an extremist, if you will.
The Ilhan Omars, the AOCs, the Corey Bushes, the Rashida Talaibs, they have taken over and hijacked their own party.
And he's now pandering to that.
And you see it more and more, Sean.
And so this guy, not only did he block the aid to Israel and conditioned it in the quid pro quo, but the day prior, Sean, he actually signed a waiver to bypass sanctions to put weapons into the hands of Lebanon and Qatar, two of the most anti-Israel nations.
Lebanon, the one who is actually headed up with Hezbollah and Hassan Nasrallah, who is launching attacks into Israel, that's who he signs a bypass to the sanctions for, but he holds the actual weapons and munitions that Israel needs to wipe out Hamas, an Iranian-backed terrorist organization.
I never thought I'd see a moment in my life where an American president would abandon an ally after the worst terrorist attack in their history and surrender in the war on terror.
Abandoned American, Sean.
You're not going to get any dispute from me.
You brought up a lot of other issues, though, that I believe would be impeachable.
I mean, I've looked at the issue of the border, and I mean, he has chosen to willfully not only not enforce the laws of our country, but aid in a bet in the lawbreaking.
In the case of we recently had a Supreme Court decision, and that Supreme Court decision had to do with student loan forgiveness, and he's not allowed to go forward with it, but he's doing that as a means, I believe, of buying votes.
And I think you're right.
I think the money that would rightly be appropriated to Israel, or to use his words, congressionally appropriated aid that he's withholding based on conditions, the very thing they impeached Donald Trump over, I think he's trying to placate the radical left that now is the Democratic Party.
And then we have the other quid pro quo.
And the weaponized justice system that you mentioned.
All of those things, I think, are dead on accurate.
And I just wish more people shared the passion that you had.
And that is to basically hold him accountable for his actions.
Not enough Republicans are standing up, as far as I'm concerned.
Well, that's exactly right.
And I know that Chip Roy over the weekend, and that's where we were actually going to amend this to put in the take care clause, which Joe Biden's in violation of for not enforcing border policy.
But, you know, at the end of the day, he's utilizing his position.
He's utilizing the congressionally appropriated funds to buy votes.
He's trying to weaponize lawfare against President Trump to keep him in the courthouse full time so he can involve himself in election interference.
And now we just passed a bill that I was the co-sponsor on, which will finally require an American citizenship question on our census surveys so that we can actually guarantee that the lines that are being drawn to the redistricting that's going on to the nine plus million people that's coming in illegally into our cities and trying to push it more towards Democrats is going to be stuck.
We have to start thinking about how do we approach and hold accountable constitution by the president of the United States.
How do we actually hold accountability for the open borders that's resulting in hundreds of thousands per year dying?
How do we hold accountable this individual who's weaponizing taxpayer funding to buy votes?
And this, in my opinion, is the right step in the right direction.
Leave joint.
Quick break more with Florida Congressman Corey Mills on the other side.

With Congressman Corey Mills of Florida, who is, by the way, now officially filed impeachment articles against Joe Biden over his comments about withholding offensive weapons that were congressionally approved to Israel.
You know, I don't know what it's going to take to wake people up, but when I see the tens and tens of thousands of people coming from our top geopolitical foes, China, Russia, Iran, Syria, Yemen, Egypt, Afghanistan, and around the world, and I'm like, this is the biggest national security risk we've ever faced in our life.
I don't think I'm wrong, Congressman.
I pray that I am, but I don't think I am, is that I don't think people from these countries are coming here because they want to better lives for themselves and their kids.
I believe terrorist cells are in this country plotting and planning and scheming another 9-11 or worse.
And I think it's 100% certainty.
Am I wrong?
Please tell me I'm wrong.
I would love to hear that.
Well, Sean, I can tell you, but unfortunately, you're not.
It's not about an if, but a when.
And I have watched where 400-plus people on a known watch terrorist list have crossed our borders in the north and south.
I saw where Joe Biden, who claimed a great success after Afghanistan for the largest airlift operation in history, didn't want to tell the American people that over 73,000 people were actually not even SIVs had helped the military, had any biometrics, had any background investigations, anything from Afghanistan, but yet he sent them here.
And again, if you want to talk about another egregious act, let's talk about the Americans left behind in Afghanistan.
Let's talk about the Americans left behind in Israel.
Let's talk about the Americans left behind in Haiti.
And you know, Sean, that I have first-hand account on that when I went over and rescued 36 people out of Afghanistan in 2021, 255 Americans out of Israel, and 23 Americans out of Haiti before Joe Biden got out of bed, out of the basement, ate his ice cream, sniffed children, and got to the job.
Appreciate what you're doing, Congressman Corey Mills.
I hope every Republican joins with you.
I don't think you're going to get them all.
Unfortunately, there are rhino-weak Republicans there, but what you're doing is the right thing, and I don't think you ever go wrong doing the right thing.
We appreciate you being with us, sir, and keeping us up to speed.
Let me go to the crazy left here.
I mean, you got to love that hard-hitting news show, The View, where the co-hosts actually melt down when one of their fellow hosts, I guess Alyssa, is it Griffin?
Anyway, said that Michael Cohen has credibility issues.
I was like, you think?
Listen to this.
Young girl, Madeline, testified that she made the appointment for Michael Cohen to come go into the court.
They've paid Michael Cohen tons of money over the years.
But somebody said it was specifically, someone testified that it was specifically for the stormy.
And Michael Cohen will confirm that on Monday on Monday.
And let me just add one.
But Michael Cohen, a known perjure who's lied before, I just worried about the concept.
He's testing about Trump.
He used to like Trump too.
Now he hates him.
Now you hate him.
It's the same thing.
No, no, I've no one.
I've perjured myself on him.
I had someone who's testified against Trump either.
They changed their minds and they changed their minds.
But I'm talking about the credibility to a jury of a known perjurer who has served jail time for lying before their credibility issues.
Can I add something?
By the way, I think Trump did it.
I just don't think they've proven it yet.
So does anybody want to hear my opinion about what I saw?
I mean, you just got to laugh.
Of course, he has credibility issues.
Is this even in dispute in any way, shape, manner, or form?
Poor Joe, liberal Joe Scarborough talks about the New York Times Sienna poll consistently slanted towards Trump.
Oh, that's right.
The New York Times has slanted towards Trump.
You got to hear this to believe it.
I read the Times every day, especially because Peter Baker writes for the Times.
Yeah, I want you to take him down as I say this next thing.
But the New York Times-Cenna poll traditionally has consistently slandered toward Donald Trump.
And what's so funny is the Times will release their polls.
Liberals will run around with their hair on fire for about a month, right?
And then like three days later, polls will come out that will show a deadlocked race, right?
There's, if anybody, by the way, if anybody wants, if anybody wants to bet me, I can't bet.
I don't bet.
Betting's for.
But if I were a better, and if somebody wanted to give me 11 or 12 points and Biden in Nevada, come on, come on.
I will tell you, these polls is very funny.
It's the Times and Sienna polls, which always slant for Donald Trump.
They put them out, and the political and media class have their hair on fire for weeks.
Now, there is some truth that is getting through.
James Carville, who's not dumb, and I've debated him many, many times over the years, and he is now saying Trump is more ahead than ever.
And everything that we are throwing at him is not working.
Well, what they're throwing at him, lawfare is not working.
Yeah, it's having the opposite effect.
They've overplayed their hand, and people see this for what it is.
But he's not wrong.
Listen.
And Trump's more ahead than he's ever been.
It doesn't matter.
You can prepare.
You can be on TV or you can write pieces.
You can have a YouTube channel.
You can have a podcast.
And nothing.
Nothing.
And, you know, we've got to try to think of something different because what we're doing is really, really not working.
And he's not the only one.
I mean, they got this guy over at Fake News CNN.
What's his name?
Fareed Zakaria.
You know, trend lines are not going in Biden's favor.
Yikes, listen to this.
Trend lines are not working in Biden's favor.
He needs to do something bold and dramatic to seize the initiative on asylum policy, for example, and reverse these numbers.
The one that troubles me the most is on the question of who was the more competent.
Joe Biden led Donald Trump by nine points in 2020, but Trump now leads by 16 points in January 2024.
All right, let's get to our busy phones.
Crazy days we're living in.
I'll say that.
Darren Hoover is with us.
He's from Utah.
He is the father, his son Taylor, died in Kabul.
And we have this issue that has come up today where Jensaki has been forced to edit her book after making the misleading claim about Biden not checking his watch.
Remember when the bodies were received?
I believe it was Joint Base Andrew.
Is that where it is?
Linda in Dover, Delaware, I believe is where it actually was.
And anyway, she made the claim.
And, oh, excuse me.
Now, I guess if her name was Christy Noam, she would go on every show and just be berated for hours and hours on end.
But that's not the case here.
Anyway, at the State of the Union, they had Gold Star parents that lost their children in Kabul.
13 Americans lost their lives that day.
They didn't need to lose their lives.
Joe Biden saw that the Taliban was marching very quickly and did nothing to stop them.
Nothing.
And he made promises that he wouldn't abandon any Americans.
He abandoned Americans.
And then he put the other Americans at risk.
And then he abandoned our allies that had helped America for decades.
And then on top of it, that information got in the hands of the Taliban that took over.
Anyway, they invited the families.
13 service members were killed that day, but the families were invited by Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.
I give him a lot of credit for that.
And anyway, one father, his son Taylor, who died in Kabul, has been following this issue of Jensaki and making this mistake in the book and wanted to comment on it.
Well, first, Mr. Hoover, I'm very, very sorry.
And I mean this with all my heart.
And I know I speak for everybody in this audience.
I am so sorry that your son lost his life serving our country and lost his life so unnecessarily.
Had they done a better job of preparing that withdrawal and not allowing the Taliban to budge or to move.
It is just like every other Biden mistake.
It was so preventable.
But I'm sure that gives you no comfort because no words can bring back your son.
And I'm sure you live with that every single day of your life.
I'm so sorry, father to father.
I can't imagine the pain you're in.
Well, Sean, I appreciate it.
We all do.
And you've been quite vocal about it.
And we have too.
The utter chaos that these kids were in.
And make no mistake, these kids made the best that they could of a difficult situation, almost an untenable situation.
And they still were able to evacuate, you know, 120, I've heard anywhere from 120 to 150,000 people, Afghans.
Unfortunately, a lot of the interpreters and all those that worked with our military were left behind.
And they're still there hoping like crazy that the Taliban isn't going to get a hold of them.
And it's just, like I've said before with you and with the other outlets, media outlets, that this administration is tone deaf.
I mean, it's sickening and disheartening that they continue to lie.
And look at where our foreign policy is now because of the debacle in Afghanistan.
Well, I remember when I first interviewed you, and I say this because it just made such a strong, had such a strong impression on me.
I've been doing this job for a pretty long time.
I've been blessed that, you know, the people that listen to the show keep me employed and I get to follow my passion and talk about the things that really matter to me and obviously matter to you too.
And I remember, you know, first discussing this, and the hardest interviews for me to do in life are to talk to people in pain, people that have lost loved ones.
And I could say I had private conversations, for example, with Lake and Riley's family.
I know this family will never be the same again, ever.
And it just breaks my heart.
I would imagine that you're never going to be the same person you were before your son was killed that day.
And maybe some level of healing takes place, but I don't think you ever get fully over that, do you?
No, not at all, Sean.
Not in one little bit.
You know, having a child taken, and especially in the manner that Lake and Riley was, that our kids were, you don't get over that.
There's no way that you can.
A child is not supposed to die before the parents.
And it's just, I mean, it is.
It's the worst pain ever.
And to continually have stupid things brought up like Circle Back Sake has done today, or, you know, that's come out today, it just reopens that wound once again that we have to deal with it and deal with the lies that are being told to us constantly.
Did you ever get any resolution?
Did you ever get a chance?
I mean, I don't remember how many times he looked at his watch, but the idea that she had to, you know, now edit the book after making this misleading claim about him not checking his watch at the ceremony is so insulting and a claim obviously contradicted by photos and accounts of Gold Star families like yourself.
Yeah, we were there at Dover.
And, you know, for Jen to even put that in her book is disgusting and vile.
She's a liar.
She knew better.
We were.
She knew better.
We were there.
We saw him do it dang near every time.
And it's just all she's doing in my eyes, Sean, is she's trying to rewrite history and, you know, on our kids' backs and on their legacy.
It's shameless.
You know, she's going to make money off of this.
And it just, I don't know.
You know, and at this point, you know, she's establishing lies from the administration.
And everybody else in that sphere of influence, whether it be the DOD, whether it be the State Department, whether it be this administration, she's gaslighting this country and it's not right.
They claim to be the most transparent administration in the history of this country.
And they're anything but.
We've got nothing but lies from them and omissions.
President Biden hasn't even said our kids' names in public, not once.
And he's been given the opportunity several times.
And if he were to go, you know, and talk on his teleprompter, have a card in front of him, whatever, maybe he would say it, but he doesn't know their names.
He never will.
And it's just disgraceful.
You know, when you talk about cancel culture, right now I'm calling on NBC, MSNBC, to terminate Jansaki.
She wants to, they're talking about cancel culture.
Let's cancel her for the lies that came out, and it's now in print, and it's been out for a week now.
And now she's going to go back and recant her story or recant that part of the story that she had written.
Only out of pressure.
And she, by the way, she describes herself as a journalist.
That's a joke.
You know, let me just say this, and it's only because I'm looking at the clock and the constraints of time.
Please forgive me.
But please know that there are many, many people in this audience like me that care and that we're praying for you and that may God give you the peace and the comfort that you certainly deserve.
And you just please know that there are people that really care.
And what happened that day in Afghanistan and what happened at Abbey Gate and what happened when the bodies came back to the U.S. should never happen in this country.
And we're just praying for you and your family and wish you, sir, the best and hope you'll stay in touch with us if we can ever help you.
I appreciate it, Sean.
We all appreciate it.
And you're the big voice that we need to get this information out there.
So thank you.
Thank you.
Welcome on this show anytime.
Anytime.
Appreciate it.
Appreciate it.
All right.
God bless you.
All right.
