2 BIG WINS FOR FREEDOM: Durham wins legal battle to unveil Hillary Clinton-Fusion GPS documents previously kept secret & JOE paid 800k in legal for Hunter! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:00
Speaker 1: So there's a new bombshell report out and this spells
0:03
Speaker 1: serious trouble not just for Hunter and Joe Biden, but
0:07
Speaker 1: specifically now for Hillary Clinton in the Durham investigation. Now,
0:12
Speaker 1: there are two different competing headlines coming from this big
0:16
Speaker 1: legal win for the Durham team over the weekend, oddly enough,
0:20
Speaker 1: and it depends on which story you read. Now, I'm
0:23
Speaker 1: gonna give you the real headline, and this is how
0:25
Speaker 1: it reads. Durham wins legal battle to unveil Hillary clinton
0:30
Speaker 1: fusion GPS documents previously kept secret under attorney client privileged claims.
0:37
Speaker 1: Now that is the real headline, because Durham did actually
0:40
Speaker 1: win this legal battle to unveil Hillary Clinton's documents that
0:45
Speaker 1: had been previously kept secret, right saying, wow, you can't
0:49
Speaker 1: talk about this the attorney client privilege. Now, that is
0:53
Speaker 1: the headline that should be running all over the country.
0:55
Speaker 1: Guess what it's not. In fact, the media has turned
1:00
Speaker 1: into a pr company for Hillary Clinton running this headline
1:03
Speaker 1: in Politico. They buried this in their quote legal section
1:08
Speaker 1: at politico dot com, and this is what their headline
1:13
Speaker 1: actually read over the weekend. Judge spares Clinton camp in
1:19
Speaker 1: Sussman ruling Yeah, that's how they read the headline or
1:23
Speaker 1: wrote the headline so that you would think, oh, there's
1:25
Speaker 1: nothing there. I don't even need to read this story
1:27
Speaker 1: even if I found it buried in the legal section
1:30
Speaker 1: of Politico. Now let me tell you what the real
1:31

3:13
Speaker 1: ask Special counsel John Durham won a legal victory want
3:17
Speaker 1: a judge presiding over his case against cybersecurity lawyer Michael
3:23
Speaker 1: Sussman ruled that some Hillary Clinton fusion GPS documents that
3:29
Speaker 1: have been previously kept secret under the alibi of attorney
3:33
Speaker 1: client privilege can now be revealed in court. The documents,
3:39
Speaker 1: Durham argued, are quote critical and crucial in building his
3:43
Speaker 1: case against Sussman, a former Perkins Coit partner, accused of
3:48
Speaker 1: lying to the FBI when presenting alleged evidence connecting then
3:53
Speaker 1: presidential candidate Donald Trump and his campaign to the Kremlin
3:58
Speaker 1: connected Alpha Bank in Russia. We know that all of
4:02
Speaker 1: that is a lie. Everybody in the media has said
4:04
Speaker 1: it's a lie. It's the same information that we get
4:07
Speaker 1: you kicked off social media if you shared it just
4:10
Speaker 1: months ago. Now. At the time Susman presented the evidence
4:14
Speaker 1: to FBI lawyer James Baker, he claimed that he was
4:19
Speaker 1: acting as a private citizen and not on behalf of
4:23
Speaker 1: any client. We know that's a lie. We know he
4:26
Speaker 1: was acting on behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign and
4:28
Speaker 1: the Democratic National Committee. Billing records later proved that Susman
4:34
Speaker 1: had charged the time when he was meeting with the
4:38
Speaker 1: FBI lawyer James Baker, claiming that he was not acting
4:41
Speaker 1: as a private citizen to the Clinton campaign. That's right.
4:45
Speaker 1: While he was meeting with the FBI he was billing
4:48
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. Durham is seeking to prove that Sessman was
4:54
Speaker 1: indeed secretly acting on behalf of the Democratic Party in general,
4:58
Speaker 1: the DNC, because they were helping pay for this and
5:01
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton her campaign when he fabricated allegations against the
5:07
Speaker 1: Trump campaign allegend collusion with Russia. Now in court, Durham
5:14
Speaker 1: argued that the CIA in fact had determined that sessmans
5:20
Speaker 1: purported evidence against Donald J. Trump was not quote unquote
5:26
Speaker 1: technically plausible and did not quote unquote withstand technical scrutiny,
5:35
Speaker 1: and also appeared to be and I'm quoting the FBI,
5:38
Speaker 1: excuse me, the CIA here appeared to be quote user
5:42
Speaker 1: created and not machine slash tool generated. So, in other words,
5:50
Speaker 1: Sessman came in, he made up a lie. The Clinton
5:54
Speaker 1: campaign paid him to fabricate the lie. The Clinton campaign
5:58
Speaker 1: made sure that lie was well orchestrated, that it was
6:04
Speaker 1: a political lie that would pay huge political dividends for
6:09
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton's campaign. Hillary Clinton knew when she was hiring
6:12
Speaker 1: Sessaman that this is what he was good at and
6:14
Speaker 1: it was going to have a major impact, hopefully on
6:17
Speaker 1: the election. That's just some of what we now know now,
6:21
Speaker 1: if you said any of this over the last several years,
6:25
Speaker 1: since twenty sixteen, they would tell you that you are
6:30
Speaker 1: a liar. They would tell you, okay, that you were
6:34
Speaker 1: putting out Russian disinformation. They would tell you that you
6:41
Speaker 1: were a part of the Kremlin. This is all again
6:44
Speaker 1: what they've said now, Durham winning. This is massive. So
6:51
Speaker 1: why is it that the mainstream media is running fake
6:55
Speaker 1: headlines Because they're trying to save the Democratic Party. Because
6:58
Speaker 1: if Hillary Clinton goes down, is the Democratic Party and
7:01
Speaker 1: so does Barack Obama's legacy, and so does Joe Biden.
7:06
Speaker 1: That's why they bury this at Politico with a headline
7:10
Speaker 1: under their legal section, not under political news, under breaking news,
7:13
Speaker 1: under news under legal quote. Judge spars Clinton camp and
7:18
Speaker 1: sessment ruling. They didn't do that. That's not what happened.
7:21
Speaker 1: This is how their first paragraph reads. Federal judge is
7:26
Speaker 1: turned down a request from special counsel John Durham for
7:29
Speaker 1: a ruling that a lawyer facing trial. Don't even use
7:32
Speaker 1: his name. Just a lawyer facing trial on a false
7:35
Speaker 1: statement charge was part of a wide ranging joint venture
7:39
Speaker 1: involving Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. Democratic operatives, private investigation firm, Fusion, GPS,
7:46
Speaker 1: and various technology researchers. And that interesting how they don't
7:48
Speaker 1: even use the name because the name is significant. Right,
7:53
Speaker 1: if you actually go back and you talk and you
7:56
Speaker 1: look at this case, you know how big of a
7:58
Speaker 1: deal the name is involved. Right, everybody knows or everybody
8:04
Speaker 1: should know the name Michael Sessman. That's exactly why Politico
8:08
Speaker 1: kept it out of their headline and out of their
8:10
Speaker 1: first paragraph. They just called him some lawyer, acting like
8:14
Speaker 1: this is a non story. The decision Politico goes on
8:18
Speaker 1: to write, issued Saturday afternoon by US District Judge Christopher Cooper,
8:22
Speaker 1: limits evidence and testimony prosecutors can offer against attorney Michael
8:26
Speaker 1: Sessman at a jury trial set to get under way
8:28
Speaker 1: later this month. So they're not even when they do
8:31
Speaker 1: say his name, they're not even connecting him to Hillary Clinton.
8:34
Speaker 1: The ruling spares the Clinton campaign and the Democrat National
8:37
Speaker 1: Committee the potential embarrassment of a federal judge finding they
8:41
Speaker 1: were part of a coordinated effort to levels since discredited
8:46
Speaker 1: allegations that Kennet Donald Trump or his allies maintained a
8:49
Speaker 1: data link from Trump Tower to the Russia's Alpha bank.
8:54
Speaker 1: The Clinton campaign disseminated that claim amid a broader effort
8:58
Speaker 1: to call out Trump's ties to Russia at a time
9:00
Speaker 1: when US intelligence agencies had revealed efforts by the Russian
9:03
Speaker 1: government to interfere in the twenty sixteen elections. So even
9:06
Speaker 1: politicos still not telling you that it's totally lie. They're saying, well,
9:09
Speaker 1: you're gonna understand why it's out there, right. The Clinton
9:11
Speaker 1: campaign just disseminated that claim amid a broader effort to
9:16
Speaker 1: call out Trump's ties to Russia. So they're basically still
9:18
Speaker 1: implying that Trump still has broader ties to Russia. That
9:23
Speaker 1: is how Politico is reporting a store acting like this
9:26
Speaker 1: a win for Hillary Clinton when clearly it was not
9:29
Speaker 1: a win. Let me go back to the facts here.
9:34
Speaker 1: The documents Durham argued are crucial in building his case.
9:38
Speaker 1: Durham is seeking to prove that Sussman was indeed secretly
9:42
Speaker 1: acting on behalf of the Democratic Party and the Clinton
9:46
Speaker 1: campaign when he fabricated allegations against the Trump campaign allegend
9:51
Speaker 1: collusion with Russia. The Washington Examiner reported Wednesday that Judge
9:56
Speaker 1: Christopher Cooper agreed to grant Durham's motion, arguing he didn't
10:00
Speaker 1: not believe it was breaking attorney client privilege for him
10:04
Speaker 1: to review the documents in question in an in camera
10:07
Speaker 1: setting or away from the public and the media. One
10:12
Speaker 1: legal blogger appeared to confirm the ruling, uploading purported court documents.
10:18
Speaker 1: The documents reportedly contained redacted communications between and listened carefully,
10:24
Speaker 1: the Democratic National Committee number one, Hillary Clinton's campaign Hillary
10:28
Speaker 1: for America number two, the Fusion GPS research company number three,
10:34
Speaker 1: and the Perkins Coy law firm number four who worked there.
10:38
Speaker 1: Part five sessmen who's been indicted. Kata Cooper's ruling was
10:44
Speaker 1: a difference between hiring a firm lawyer to conduct fact
10:48
Speaker 1: checking versus hiring it to do opposition research. The Examiner
10:53
Speaker 1: has also reported Hillary for America, the DNC, and Perkins Core,
11:00
Speaker 1: the law firm that Hillary Clinton hired, have all claimed
11:04
Speaker 1: that these records should be kept sealed under attorney client
11:08
Speaker 1: privilege since they quote hired Fusion Gps to simply provide
11:13
Speaker 1: legal services. This is where Durham got him. He argued, no, no, no,
11:19
Speaker 1: Fusion Gps. His work went far beyond legal services to
11:25
Speaker 1: engage an out and out opposition research against the Trump
11:28
Speaker 1: campaign to the point where they were going and lying
11:31
Speaker 1: to the FBI as claiming they were some sort of whistleblowers,
11:37
Speaker 1: acting like they were there on their own time, when
11:40
Speaker 1: they were actually billing the Hillary Clinton campaign right for
11:45
Speaker 1: the opposition research they were peddling out to the FBI,
11:49
Speaker 1: to the CIA, and to the media. Now, the court
11:54
Speaker 1: is set to review only thirty eight of one thousand,
11:57
Speaker 1: five hundred documents over which the defendants have asserted privilege.
12:03
Speaker 1: Now this goes back to that fake headline from Politico.
12:06
Speaker 1: I was telling you about a moment ago. Their headline
12:09
Speaker 1: says Judge spars Clinton Camp and Sessamen ruling he didn't. Well,
12:13
Speaker 1: they're saying, well, it's only thirty eight documents, right, so
12:16
Speaker 1: therefore they've protected them. Really because of the one thousand,
12:20
Speaker 1: five hundred documents that they were asking to see, they
12:24
Speaker 1: weren't asking, by the way, to see Durham was not
12:27
Speaker 1: asking to see all the documents. Hence the reason why
12:30
Speaker 1: he even says that there may be requests for the
12:34
Speaker 1: introduction in the future of some of these other documents.
12:37
Speaker 1: Are right now, all they want is at thirty eight.
12:41
Speaker 1: So this is how the media says, Well, it was
12:43
Speaker 1: mostly a win for Hillary Clinton, even though it clearly wasn't. Now,
12:47
Speaker 1: this ruling clearly freaked out the defendants legal teams. How
12:52
Speaker 1: do we know this? Here's the proof. Clinton campaign lawyer
12:55
Speaker 1: Robert Trout was vigorous and arguing that the government displayed
13:02
Speaker 1: and quote erroneously cramped view of privilege and called it
13:07
Speaker 1: a false choice to say something is either opposition research
13:12
Speaker 1: or covered by privilege. Now, Salesman's lawyer Sean Berkowitz laminated
13:18
Speaker 1: that the quote governments charged a case with attorneys and
13:22
Speaker 1: privilege all over the place quote unquote, and claim the
13:26
Speaker 1: judge's ruling could have a ripple effect that may end
13:29
Speaker 1: up calling thousands of documents and a question. Okay, so
13:33
Speaker 1: let's go back to the lying headline from Politico. They
13:36
Speaker 1: say this is a win for Hillary Clinton. Right their headline,
13:40
Speaker 1: the judge spirits Clinton camp and Sessman ruling. The decision,
13:42
Speaker 1: issued Saturday afternoon, limits evidence and testimony prosecutors can offer
13:47
Speaker 1: against attorney Michael Suessman at a jury trial set to
13:49
Speaker 1: get underway later this month. So you would think, well,
13:52
Speaker 1: this is good news. It's not good news, and everybody
13:55
Speaker 1: knows it's not good news. But there it is them
13:57
Speaker 1: spinning this headline. Maybe the new disinformations are will come
14:01
Speaker 1: out and say this isn't the truth, right, I'll be
14:03
Speaker 1: waiting for this now. If you take a step back,
14:08
Speaker 1: what this means is not only is Hillary Clinton in
14:13
Speaker 1: serious trouble now, but Sessman is in serious trouble now.
14:18
Speaker 1: And there's a good chance he's going to start rolling
14:20
Speaker 1: on people within the Clinton campaign because he was clearly
14:23
Speaker 1: being directed by the Clinton campaign like that. That's the
14:26
Speaker 1: most obvious point of all of this. It is very clear,
14:32
Speaker 1: right that, I mean very very very very very clear
14:37
Speaker 1: that he was being directed by Hillary Clinton. He was
14:41
Speaker 1: being directed by Hillary Clinton. He knew what he was
14:43
Speaker 1: being asked to do, and he Winton did it. He
14:46
Speaker 1: knew how he was gonna lie, and he did it.
14:48
Speaker 1: He knew that it couldn't come from the Hillary Clinton campaign.
14:51
Speaker 1: Wink quink, nod, nod to the FBI. He knew that
14:54
Speaker 1: the CIA and the Deep State were going to turn
14:56
Speaker 1: the other way, even though they had to assess that
14:58
Speaker 1: this was fabricated material from the very beginning, and they
15:01
Speaker 1: still went forward with it because this is the only
15:03
Speaker 1: way they could screw Donald Trump. This wasn't. And to
15:07
Speaker 1: be clear, this wasn't anything about actually Trump doing something wrong.
15:10
Speaker 1: This was about winning an election and how you win
15:13
Speaker 1: an election. As you go out there and you tell
15:15
Speaker 1: people that Donald Trump is working for the Russians and
15:20
Speaker 1: you undermine Donald Trump that way, and that's exactly what
15:23
Speaker 1: they did, and it worked. Because Donald Trump was not reelected.
15:28
Speaker 1: You got to impeach him, right, that was a good thing.
15:32
Speaker 1: If you're a Democrat, you love the fact that he
15:34
Speaker 1: was impeached. You're excited about that. This was victory and
15:38
Speaker 1: you thought you were probably going to get away with
15:40
Speaker 1: all of this except Donald Trump, and the pieces of
15:44
Speaker 1: the puzzle started to be put together. And when those
15:47
Speaker 1: pieces of the puzzles started to be put together, and
15:49
Speaker 1: then you had Durham that was appointed to look into this,
15:52
Speaker 1: that's when you knew you were in trouble. And this
15:56
Speaker 1: campaign has not been able to stop it so far.
16:00
Speaker 1: Biden has not been able to stop it so far. Now,
16:04
Speaker 1: if you have this come down and you all of
16:07
Speaker 1: a sudden see that the president of the United States
16:09
Speaker 1: of America and his government, right, Joe Biden's Government's been
16:13
Speaker 1: trying to help out Hillary Clinton. This is only going
16:16
Speaker 1: to complicate things that much more because now you've got
16:20
Speaker 1: these other major problems. If you're the White House right now,
16:25
Speaker 1: you may almost wish for a moment that Hillary Clinton
16:27
Speaker 1: becomes a center of attention because you're in such a
16:30
Speaker 1: bad spot. You're in such a bad scenario now when
16:33
Speaker 1: it comes to your own son and those investigations, which
16:37
Speaker 1: brings me to New Gingrich. New Gingrid just come out saying,
16:41
Speaker 1: not only is Joe Biden a liar when it comes
16:43
Speaker 1: to his son's business dealings, but he also wrote an
16:47
Speaker 1: eight hundred thousand dollars check for Hunters businesses. So the
16:51
Speaker 1: idea that he never spoke about the business dealings with
16:54
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, we know is absurd because no father writes
16:57
Speaker 1: an eight hundred thousand dollars check for anyone without asking
17:03
Speaker 1: some questions. And we all know that. I want you
17:09
Speaker 1: to take a listen to what he had to say
17:12
Speaker 1: while he was talking with Maria bart to Roma about
17:15
Speaker 1: Joe Biden not only being a liar, but the fact
17:18
Speaker 1: that we clearly need a deep investigation into the Biden
17:22
Speaker 1: crime family that he describes as nothing more than like
17:25
Speaker 1: the mafia, also have corruption in plain sight. And I
17:29
Speaker 1: want to get your take on that. And and you
17:31
Speaker 1: mentioned the University of Pennsylvania secret Chinese money. You think
17:37
Speaker 1: that's it an even bigger story than the corruption of
17:40
Speaker 1: what's on Hunter's laptop, right, walk us through what you
17:43
Speaker 1: mean well, and by the way, let me explain this
17:45
Speaker 1: to you so you understand a little bit deeper. And
17:47
Speaker 1: I'll remind you we did a deep dive in our
17:49
Speaker 1: podcast into this. The University of Pennsylvania had been taking
17:53
Speaker 1: insane amounts of money from Chinese donors, many of them
17:56
Speaker 1: anonymous Chinese donors, some of them giving fourteen and a
17:59
Speaker 1: half fifteen million dollars, if my memory serves me correctly.
18:03
Speaker 1: Why Because Biden was involved at the University of Pennsylvania,
18:08
Speaker 1: and the University of Pennsylvania was taking this money from
18:11
Speaker 1: the Chinese government and these Chinese sources. And we're talking
18:15
Speaker 1: about insane amount of dollars. Now, the question is where
18:20
Speaker 1: were the kickbacks coming from. Now, penn had the Biden
18:24
Speaker 1: Center for Public Policy, and the money was flowing in.
18:27
Speaker 1: And if you wanted to do business with Joe Biden,
18:30
Speaker 1: if you wanted to do things with Joe Biden in general,
18:33
Speaker 1: what we have learned very clearly is you had to
18:36
Speaker 1: give cash to the Bidens, whether that was through the
18:40
Speaker 1: University of Pennsylvania, which was easiest lay to funnel money.
18:43
Speaker 1: In my questions, how much money did he make, how
18:46
Speaker 1: much cash did he make? How much money was there
18:50
Speaker 1: in all of this, right, like how much cash was
18:55
Speaker 1: going from the University of Pennsylvania after it funneled to
18:59
Speaker 1: them from China from communist Chinese people quote anonymous donors
19:03
Speaker 1: to the Biden crime family. And that's exactly where I
19:07
Speaker 1: want to pick it up with Nick Gingrich because that's
19:09
Speaker 1: what he's about to explain, saying, you want to talk
19:11
Speaker 1: about corruption, look at the University of penn Look at
19:14
Speaker 1: the money going into the pen Biden Center for Public Policy.
19:19
Speaker 1: Look at how much cash is being funneled from the
19:21
Speaker 1: communist Chinese government indirectly through the university then going to
19:28
Speaker 1: the family. Well, well, the University of Pennsylvania that we
19:33
Speaker 1: know of, has gotten at least sixty seven million dollars
19:37
Speaker 1: from Chinese sources, anonymous sources. The University of Pennsylvania refused
19:43
Speaker 1: to turn over information to the Justice Department in the
19:46
Speaker 1: last year the Trump presidency. One of the major jobs
19:49
Speaker 1: of Congress should be to subpoena the University of Pennsylvania's records.
19:53
Speaker 1: They created the Penn Biden Center for Public Policy. I
19:57
Speaker 1: don't know how many administration staff were being paid from
20:01
Speaker 1: that center, but they were being paid with Chinese money.
20:04
Speaker 1: And you have anonymous Chinese donors, the largest of which
20:08
Speaker 1: was fourteen and a half million dollars. So you take
20:10
Speaker 1: everything that Hunter Biden ever did, and then you look
20:14
Speaker 1: at what Joe Biden was doing. The story here is
20:16
Speaker 1: not Hunter Biden. The story here is the head of
20:19
Speaker 1: the family, just like a mafia family, the head of
20:22
Speaker 1: the family who, by the way, if you go back
20:24
Speaker 1: and pull up what he said in various campaign events,
20:27
Speaker 1: I knew nothing. I never discussed my son's business. Well,
20:30
Speaker 1: we now know he wrote an eight hundred thousand dollars
20:33
Speaker 1: check for his son's legal expenses in business. Is eight
20:37
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars check? Okay, we now know that Joe
20:42
Speaker 1: Biden wrote an eight hundred thousand dollars check for a
20:45
Speaker 1: son's legal expenses in business. How can you say that
20:51
Speaker 1: you know nothing about someone's legal expenses or his business,
20:59
Speaker 1: or his business life or his business expenses when clearly
21:02
Speaker 1: you do. You don't just write a random check for
21:07
Speaker 1: eight hundred thousand dollars without asking a question. There's no way,
21:12
Speaker 1: It's impossible. No one writes an eight hundred thousand dollars
21:17
Speaker 1: random check without asking any questions. That doesn't happen, and
21:22
Speaker 1: we all know it. Now. Listen to this closing argument
21:28
Speaker 1: for New Gingrich as he was talking about not only
21:31
Speaker 1: the eight hundred thousand dollars check for Biden's businesses, but
21:35
Speaker 1: this idea that Joe Biden didn't know anything about it.
21:38
Speaker 1: This wasn't criminal, This was writing to be including Chinese businesses.
21:42
Speaker 1: He wants us to believe he wrote an eight hundred
21:45
Speaker 1: thousand dollars check and didn't discuss his son's business. He
21:48
Speaker 1: wants us to believe they flew for seventeen hours to
21:51
Speaker 1: China and they didn't discuss his son's business. The truth
21:55
Speaker 1: is Joe Biden is a liar. This is a corrupt
21:57
Speaker 1: family occupying the White House, and we need to get
22:01
Speaker 1: to the bottom of it. And I believe the University
22:03
Speaker 1: of Pennsylvania's sixty seven million dollars from China is a
22:07
Speaker 1: lot bigger scandal than Hunter Biden's laptop, as big a
22:11
Speaker 1: hand as scandal. Frankly as the laptop is, where did
22:14
Speaker 1: the money come from, who is running the checks, and
22:17
Speaker 1: where did the money go after it was written to
22:19
Speaker 1: the University of Pennsylvania. That's question one that everybody in
22:22
Speaker 1: the media should be asking. They're not how is it that?
22:27
Speaker 1: And again, the Republicans need to get their heads out
22:29
Speaker 1: of there were in and they need to subpoena these
22:31
Speaker 1: documents from the University of Pennsylvania. They need to actually
22:35
Speaker 1: start fighting back and not just sitting there like a
22:38
Speaker 1: bunch of lazy eight bless in Congress, which is what
22:41
Speaker 1: the majority of them are actually doing right now. But
22:44
Speaker 1: you put these two stories together, and you put the
22:47
Speaker 1: Durham winning this major legal battle to unveil Hillary Clinton's
22:50
Speaker 1: fusion GPS documents previously kept secret under the cause of
22:55
Speaker 1: attorney client privilege. That's now gone. You look at what
23:00
Speaker 1: you now know about Joe Biden and the eight hundred
23:02
Speaker 1: thousand dollar check. It is significant. You cannot say that
23:07
Speaker 1: it's not. The media clearly doesn't want you to know
23:13
Speaker 1: the truth about Hunter Biden. The media doesn't want you
23:18
Speaker 1: to know what has happened with Hunter Biden. I was
23:21
Speaker 1: hosting last week Outnumbered, and one of the guest hosts
23:24
Speaker 1: on that show is Tommy Lauren, and she had this
23:27
Speaker 1: to say. She was spot on about the media continuing
23:31
Speaker 1: to look the other way about the Hunter Biden scandal.
23:33
Speaker 1: This is important for all Americans and the fact that
23:35
Speaker 1: those in mainstream media, or at least it seems that
23:38
Speaker 1: the folks in mainstream media are not curious. I don't
23:41
Speaker 1: think it's a lack of curiosity. I think they don't
23:42
Speaker 1: want to know the truth because then they would have
23:44
Speaker 1: to admit that they originally never wanted to talk about
23:47
Speaker 1: the laptop in the first place, and then they had
23:49
Speaker 1: to talk about it. Yeah, the disinformation. I'm so glad
23:52
Speaker 1: we have that governance board. Now, maybe they should look
23:54
Speaker 1: into this, Maybe they should look into the big guy.
23:56
Speaker 1: But there's also to the point of he's paying the legales,
24:00
Speaker 1: you're paying your son's legal fees, but you don't know
24:02
Speaker 1: what the legal fees are for. There's missing millions of
24:04
Speaker 1: dollars that unaccounted for in terms of Biden's finances. There's
24:09
Speaker 1: these emails that again are talking about the big guy
24:11
Speaker 1: talking about certain kickbacks. And I want to know whether
24:14
Speaker 1: it was Joe or Hunter, because even if it's just Hunter,
24:17
Speaker 1: it's still bad. What did he have to give to
24:20
Speaker 1: get all these positions on all these boards? It certainly
24:23
Speaker 1: wasn't his talent and skill. He has no marketable talents
24:26
Speaker 1: and skills. So what did he have to give up?
24:28
Speaker 1: And to the detriment of us? Because we need to
24:31
Speaker 1: know that if vulnerable drug addict, like we know that
24:35
Speaker 1: even Joe I love that he was vulnerable because he
24:37
Speaker 1: was a drug addict and his father exploited his addiction.
24:40
Speaker 1: Is what Harris Faulkner is saying there. It's what I've
24:42
Speaker 1: been saying for months now. There's two other big headlines
24:45
Speaker 1: also dealing with Hunter Biden that also, again the media
24:50
Speaker 1: is not covering. Hunter Biden is now enlisted a Hollywood
24:53
Speaker 1: mega lawyer for not just counsel, but also funding. Sources
24:58
Speaker 1: are now saying Biden has garnered quiet support in financial
25:03
Speaker 1: backing from a high powered Hollywood attorney while awaiting the
25:06
Speaker 1: outcome of a long running federal investigation into his taxes
25:10
Speaker 1: and finances being conducted by the US Attorney in Delaware.
25:14
Speaker 1: Multiple sources have now confirmed to CBS News Kevin Morris,
25:19
Speaker 1: the attorney known for crafting the five hundred and fifty
25:24
Speaker 1: million dollars licensing deal for the creators of South Park
25:29
Speaker 1: and who later won a Tony Award as a co
25:31
Speaker 1: producer of the hit musical Book of Mormon, is now
25:34
Speaker 1: crafting a legal and media strategy for Hunter Biden. His
25:40
Speaker 1: office confirmed yes, this is happening when they were reached
25:43
Speaker 1: for comment. President Biden's son is maintaining a robust New
25:49
Speaker 1: York based legal team handling his defense and the ongoing
25:53
Speaker 1: criminal probe and delaware that has been focused on his taxes. Yes,
25:59
Speaker 1: his taxes. Now, CBS News this weekend with this exclusive
26:04
Speaker 1: finally came out and had this to say about Hunter Biden.
26:08
Speaker 1: Now again, this is on the CBS News investigating Hunter
26:12
Speaker 1: Biden have subpoena documents from a twenty nineteen paternity lawsuit.
26:17
Speaker 1: Those documents include tax records from the President's son dating
26:20
Speaker 1: back to twenty seventeen. Investigators obtained records from the lawyer
26:24
Speaker 1: who represented the woman who filed the twenty nineteen lawsuit
26:28
Speaker 1: claiming Hunter Biden was the father of her child. That
26:31
Speaker 1: lawyer told CBS News prosecutors quote wanted every record relating
26:36
Speaker 1: to Hunter Biden. We had CBS News Senior investigative correspondent
26:40
Speaker 1: Catherine Herridge joins us now for more on this. Hi, Katherine,
26:43
Speaker 1: great to see you. So what exactly our prosecutors looking
26:48
Speaker 1: for in these documents that you know, as we said,
26:51
Speaker 1: are from many years ago, Tanya. Our CBS News investigative
26:55
Speaker 1: team was able to obtain this subpoena that was sent
26:59
Speaker 1: by the US Erne's office in Delaware in December of
27:02
Speaker 1: twenty twenty to a law firm in Arkansas that represented
27:07
Speaker 1: London Roberts, the woman who brought and settled paternity suit
27:10
Speaker 1: with Hunter Biden. This is a very broad subpoena seeking
27:14
Speaker 1: financial records, and it falls into two distinct buckets. The
27:18
Speaker 1: first has to do with the flow of money in
27:21
Speaker 1: and out of his accounts. It asked for all documents, emails,
27:24
Speaker 1: instant messages related to income, expenses, debts, financial transactions both
27:31
Speaker 1: personal and business. And the second buncket, is really very
27:34
Speaker 1: focused on his tax situation. It calls for federal, state, local,
27:39
Speaker 1: income and payroll taxes. Now, you've got to ask yourself
27:42
Speaker 1: a question real quick, why is CBS News actually doing
27:45
Speaker 1: the report that I'm playing for you now? Because I
27:46
Speaker 1: think they realize they have no other choice, and it
27:50
Speaker 1: may be that Hunter Biden, listening as Hollywood mega lawyer
27:52
Speaker 1: for counsel and funding, has said, Look, let's go ahead
27:55
Speaker 1: and get the story out there, because there's no reason
27:57
Speaker 1: not too at this point. And then let's just try
28:00
Speaker 1: to separate that story from your father. That may be
28:03
Speaker 1: their strategy, their best option right now, because if I
28:05
Speaker 1: was their media strategy team member right now, that's what
28:08
Speaker 1: I would be telling them to do. And if you notice,
28:10
Speaker 1: this report really doesn't have a lot to do with
28:13
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. It's all about Hunter Biden trying to imply
28:16
Speaker 1: that Hunter Biden's out on a raft by himself, that
28:18
Speaker 1: his father knew nothing about any of this. Continue to
28:21
Speaker 1: listen to these documents. They talk about the scope of
28:25
Speaker 1: this new subpoena. Former US attorney told us that this
28:28
Speaker 1: kind of subpoena really indicates to him that the US
28:31
Speaker 1: attorney in Delaware is leaving no stone unturned in his investigation. Catherine,
28:36
Speaker 1: why are these documents so important? Well, these documents are
28:40
Speaker 1: important because it's part of a data chain that leads
28:44
Speaker 1: to the grandjury testimony of London Roberts, the woman who
28:48
Speaker 1: brought and settled that paternity suit with Hunter Biden. So
28:51
Speaker 1: we begin with December of twenty twenty this very broad
28:55
Speaker 1: subpoena for financial records that goes to the law firm
28:59
Speaker 1: in our concer, and then according to her lawyer, Clint Lancaster,
29:03
Speaker 1: there was an in person meeting in the fall of
29:06
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one with a representative of the US Attorney's
29:10
Speaker 1: office in Delaware as well as an FBI agent and
29:13
Speaker 1: an IRS enforcement agent along with his client. And then
29:17
Speaker 1: earlier this year, in February, London Roberts goes to the
29:21
Speaker 1: grand jury in Delaware and testifies. And what we understand
29:25
Speaker 1: through our reporting is that it says that there is
29:28
Speaker 1: something in those records that she has first hand information
29:33
Speaker 1: about that the US Attorney in Delaware wanted to lock
29:37
Speaker 1: in as testimony before that grand jury. So it's the
29:40
Speaker 1: data chain that really matters here. So, Katherine, could any
29:43
Speaker 1: of this information in any way implicate President Biden? I
29:48
Speaker 1: don't want to well, I love this right very end
29:50
Speaker 1: of the interview. Is there anything in here that could
29:52
Speaker 1: implicate President Joe Biden? Katherine herritage listen to which I
29:57
Speaker 1: don't want to speculate on that trying to make this
30:00
Speaker 1: about a hunter, speculate on the standing of this investigation.
30:04
Speaker 1: But I just want to lay out with the White
30:06
Speaker 1: House position is and what we know through our own
30:08
Speaker 1: reporting here at CBS. Hold on. So you didn't answer
30:10
Speaker 1: the question did you know? Of course not. Why would
30:13
Speaker 1: I answer that question. I don't want to speculate on that.
30:17
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? I'm not gonna speculate on that.
30:21
Speaker 1: What do you think. I don't want you to think
30:23
Speaker 1: for a moment that I'm going to talk about President
30:27
Speaker 1: of the United States of America when his son's clearly
30:29
Speaker 1: involved in all this. I am no no ho no, no, no, no, no,
30:33
Speaker 1: we are not we are not going to talk about that.
30:36
Speaker 1: You need to be quiet. I'm just gonna tell you
30:38
Speaker 1: what their perspective is and we're gonna move on. Translation. Dude,
30:43
Speaker 1: he's at drug addict. Okay, that made some stupid deals
30:46
Speaker 1: and this has nothing to do in any capacity, right,
30:51
Speaker 1: this has nothing to do with Joe Biden. Everybody be quiet.
30:55
Speaker 1: The present's uninvolved. We're just gonna we're gonna, We're gonna
30:59
Speaker 1: totally separate the two. That's all this is. That's that's it.
31:04
Speaker 1: It's just it's it's it's it's as simple as that.
31:09
Speaker 1: They think you're this dumb. They think that you are
31:13
Speaker 1: this stupid, that you're gonna that you're gonna fall for this,
31:17
Speaker 1: that you're gonna look at this and you're gonna think, oh,
31:19
Speaker 1: it's it's totally normal for a Hollywood lawyer who represents
31:23
Speaker 1: Southpark creator and Chris Rock paying off two million dollars
31:26
Speaker 1: of Hunter Biden's overdue taxes acting as his sugar daddy
31:29
Speaker 1: or sugar brother. Right, Hunter Biden had his tax bill
31:34
Speaker 1: of more than two million dollars actually paid for by
31:36
Speaker 1: a Hollywood lawyer. Wonder why what's he trying to hide?
31:41
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden's attorney said, Morris is quote a trust advisor
31:43
Speaker 1: of the president's son. Morris also co produced the Book
31:46
Speaker 1: of Mormon, and it is a published author. And all
31:49
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you just decide to go in and
31:51
Speaker 1: pay two million dollars of your overdue taxes out of nowhere,
31:55
Speaker 1: and we're not supposed to ask any questions about this
31:57
Speaker 1: and just accept it like this is completely in totally normal.
32:02
Speaker 1: And then you go back to Catherine Heritage again, She's like, well,
32:05
Speaker 1: let me just tell you the White House's perspective here.
32:08
Speaker 1: That's what you really that's what you really need to
32:11
Speaker 1: be worried about, like this is the this is the
32:13
Speaker 1: White House. Okay, this the White House's perspective. I wouldn't
32:16
Speaker 1: say that there's any real connection here between any of
32:19
Speaker 1: this and the president. Information in any way implicate President Biden.
32:24
Speaker 1: I don't want to speculate on the standing of this investigation,
32:28
Speaker 1: but I just want to lay out what the White
32:30
Speaker 1: House position is and what we know through our own
32:32
Speaker 1: reporting here at CBS News. Recently, the White House Chief
32:35
Speaker 1: of Staff was asked about this issue, and he said
32:39
Speaker 1: that the President felt that his family had done the
32:41
Speaker 1: right thing, but then also added that these were the
32:45
Speaker 1: actions of Hunter Biden and James Biden, the President's brother,
32:48
Speaker 1: and that these were private matters and that President Biden
32:52
Speaker 1: was not involved. What we know through our reporting here
32:54
Speaker 1: at CBS News is that there was another subpoena that
32:58
Speaker 1: was sent out to one of the mayor your banks
33:00
Speaker 1: here in the United States, and it was seeking not
33:03
Speaker 1: only Hunter Biden's records his former business partners, but also
33:07
Speaker 1: the records of the president's brother, James Biden, and these
33:11
Speaker 1: records went back to twenty fourteen. And the reason that
33:14
Speaker 1: timing matters is that it spans a period when Joe
33:18
Speaker 1: Biden was the vice president. Whoa, oh, let's bury that
33:21
Speaker 1: at the end. So you got Joe Biden's brother and
33:25
Speaker 1: his tax records being subpoenaed or his bank records being
33:28
Speaker 1: subpoena going back to when his brother was the vice
33:31
Speaker 1: president right twenty fourteen. But we're not going to speculate
33:35
Speaker 1: if any of this involves the president of the United
33:37
Speaker 1: States America. Why would we do that. His dad just
33:41
Speaker 1: paid an eight hundred thousand dollar legal bill for his
33:43
Speaker 1: son's businesses, right, not for a lawsuit, but for its businesses.
33:46
Speaker 1: We know that you think you just randomly write checks
33:47
Speaker 1: to your son for eight hundred thousand dollars. Come on, man,
33:51
Speaker 1: to quote Joe Biden, Come on, man, don't forget to
33:55
Speaker 1: go backwards and grab our other podcasts or we've been
