- 0:01Speaker 1: FBI informant record contains damning allegations against Joe Biden. This
- 0:07Speaker 1: FBI form documenting the agency's conversation with an informant contains
- 0:11Speaker 1: brutal allegations against the President of United States of America.
- 0:15Speaker 1: The unclassified form, which Republican members of Congress fought to
- 0:19Speaker 1: obtain from the FBI, was released late last night by
- 0:22Speaker 1: Senator Chuck Grassley. The fd ten to twenty three form
- 0:25Speaker 1: alleged that alleging then Vice President Joe Biden was directly
- 0:29Speaker 1: involved in a five million dollar bribery scheme with a
- 0:33Speaker 1: Barisma executive that has been released. The memo revealed several
- 0:39Speaker 1: conversations with the informant called a confidential human source or AHS.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Throughout the document is discussing in the conversations that the
- 0:49Speaker 1: informant had with the founder of the Ukrainian oil and
- 0:53Speaker 1: natural gas company barismas he's talking with the founder, talking
- 0:56Speaker 1: with the guy who started it, talking with a guy
- 0:58Speaker 1: that hired Hunter Biden and other members of his crime
- 1:01Speaker 1: syndicate to be board members during the Obama Biden administration. Now,
- 1:06Speaker 1: despite his father's handling of Ukraine as part of his
- 1:09Speaker 1: portfolio as Vice president, they knew this, and they knew
- 1:12Speaker 1: he had the ability to get things done. Holding up
- 1:17Speaker 1: American aid. Barisma at the time when they put Hunter
- 1:21Speaker 1: Biden and his friends on that board, really just a
- 1:24Speaker 1: funnel money was facing an investigation for corruption. Biden would
- 1:29Speaker 1: later publicly brag, We've played it before about successfully pressuring
- 1:33Speaker 1: the Ukrainian government to fire the prosecutor investigating Barisma and
- 1:38Speaker 1: threatened to withhold money from Ukraine a billion dollar loan
- 1:42Speaker 1: guarantee that they desperately needed.
- 1:44Speaker 2: He was proud of this. Now.
- 1:46Speaker 1: This form contained allegations from the informant and those that
- 1:51Speaker 1: the informant spoke with that Biden helped Barisma in exchange
- 1:55Speaker 1: for the millions of dollars in bribes. The allegation includes
- 1:59Speaker 1: in this document number one that, according to the informant,
- 2:02Speaker 1: during a meeting he had in Ukraine with Barisma executives
- 2:06Speaker 1: in late twenty sixteen, a top Barrisma official said Barisma
- 2:10Speaker 1: had hired Hunter Biden to quote protect us through his
- 2:14Speaker 1: dad from all kinds of problems quote unquote. Number two
- 2:19Speaker 1: from this form. Two months after the first Brisma meeting,
- 2:24Speaker 1: this confidential human source and another associate had a meeting
- 2:28Speaker 1: with the CEO at an outside coffee shop of Barrisma.
- 2:32Speaker 1: When this confidential human source told the Barisma CEO that
- 2:37Speaker 1: Soaken's investigation would have a substantial negative impact on his
- 2:41Speaker 1: company's prospective IPO in the United States, that CEO replied
- 2:47Speaker 1: something to the effect.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Of, quote, don't worry.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Hunter will take care of all those issues through his
- 2:53Speaker 1: dad quote unquote. Number three, the meeting with the CEO
- 2:58Speaker 1: Brisma took place around the time that Vice President Joe
- 3:01Speaker 1: Biden quote made a public statement about the former Ukrainian
- 3:06Speaker 1: prosecutor Victor Sokin being corrupt and then he should be
- 3:09Speaker 1: fired and removed from office, clearly laying that groundwork. Number four,
- 3:14Speaker 1: that CEO of Barisma told this confidential human source quote
- 3:18Speaker 1: it took five million to pay one Biden and five
- 3:21Speaker 1: million to pay another Biden quote unquote. He also told
- 3:26Speaker 1: the confidential human source that although Hunter Biden was stupid
- 3:31Speaker 1: and that his dog was smarter, he needed to keep
- 3:34Speaker 1: Hunter Biden on the board so everything will be okay.
- 3:38Speaker 1: The Barisma CEO also told the confidential human source that
- 3:41Speaker 1: both Hunter Biden and Joe Biden told him to hire
- 3:45Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, So the vice president of Times like you
- 3:47Speaker 1: hire my son, so we can funnel the ten million dollars.
- 3:51Speaker 1: When the confidential human source advised the CEO of Barisma
- 3:55Speaker 1: to fire Hunter Biden deal with Soken's investigation directly to
- 3:59Speaker 1: keep the issue inside of Ukraine had not turned it
- 4:02Speaker 1: into an international matter, the CEO of Barisma responded something
- 4:07Speaker 1: to the effective quote, don't worry, this thing will go
- 4:10Speaker 1: away away. Then the CEO told the confidential human source
- 4:15Speaker 1: that quoted it's too late to change his decision, which
- 4:19Speaker 1: the confidential human source understood to mean that the CEO
- 4:23Speaker 1: had already paid the Bidens, presumably to deal with Sokin.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Fast forward and shortly after President Donald Trump was elected
- 4:31Speaker 1: but had not taken office yet, the confidence of human
- 4:34Speaker 1: source had a conference call with the CEO of Barisma.
- 4:37Speaker 1: That CEO said he was not happy about Trump's win
- 4:41Speaker 1: and said that he didn't want to pay the Bidens,
- 4:43Speaker 1: but he was pushed to pay them. That Barisma CEO
- 4:47Speaker 1: also stated that Soakin had already been fired and no
- 4:51Speaker 1: investigation was currently going on, and that nobody would find
- 4:54Speaker 1: out about his financial dealings with the Bidens. That confidential
- 4:59Speaker 1: source also said that the CEO had many text messages
- 5:03Speaker 1: and quote unquote recordings that showed he was coerced to
- 5:07Speaker 1: make payments to the Bidens. In twenty nineteen, and a
- 5:11Speaker 1: call between that confidential human source and the CEO Barisma,
- 5:15Speaker 1: that CEO said, regarding payments to the Bidens, that he
- 5:18Speaker 1: did not send any funds directly to the big Guy,
- 5:22Speaker 1: which that confidential human source understood to clearly referenced Joe Biden.
- 5:27Speaker 1: The CEO said it would take investigators quote ten years
- 5:30Speaker 1: to find the records elicted payments to Joe Biden because
- 5:34Speaker 1: of all of the shell companies, And finally, on June
- 5:39Speaker 1: the twenty ninth of twenty twenty, the confidential human source
- 5:42Speaker 1: said that that CEO of Barisma had said he had
- 5:46Speaker 1: a total of seventeen recordings involving the Bidens, two that
- 5:50Speaker 1: included Joe Biden and fifteen that included Hunter Biden. The
- 5:54Speaker 1: confidential human source also said that that CEO said that
- 5:57Speaker 1: he had two documents which the confidential human source understood
- 6:02Speaker 1: to be wired transfer statements, bank records, et cetera. That
- 6:06Speaker 1: evidence that evidence that some payments to the Bidens were
- 6:09Speaker 1: made clearly in exchange for.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Soaken.
- 6:14Speaker 1: The prosecutors firing the forum known as an fd dash
- 6:18Speaker 1: one zero, two to three is now being undermined by
- 6:21Speaker 1: Democrats because they say, well, part of it's in Russian,
- 6:24Speaker 1: so how can we know what it's actually saying, because
- 6:26Speaker 1: apparently we're too stupid to get translators to translate it.
- 6:29Speaker 1: I'm not joking. That is now the defense of this
- 6:32Speaker 1: work coming out Now. Before I get into more of

- 7:50Speaker 1: sitting down for a two part interview with James Comer.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Some of what he had to say was truly shocking.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Some of those facts I've written down and want to
- 8:00Speaker 1: go over them with you because they're so important.
- 8:03Speaker 2: We now know that.
- 8:04Speaker 1: In twenty and sixteen, Hunter Biden's attorney had a meeting
- 8:08Speaker 1: with then Vice President Joe Biden at the White House.
- 8:11Speaker 1: The same day, the attorney met with Hunter to discuss
- 8:14Speaker 1: the subpoena related to the federal investigation into his business partner.
- 8:20Speaker 1: His business partner is a guy by the name of
- 8:22Speaker 1: Devin Archer. Records now confirm this. In twenty and seventeen,
- 8:29Speaker 1: two of Hunter Biden's business partners talked about how it's
- 8:32Speaker 1: forbidden to mention Joe's involvement over text or email. This
- 8:37Speaker 1: in a text message as they mentioned Joe Biden's involvement.
- 8:40Speaker 1: You can't make that up. In twenty seventeen, as well,
- 8:44Speaker 1: Joe Biden wrote college recommendation letters for his son for
- 8:49Speaker 1: excuse me for the son and for the daughter of
- 8:52Speaker 1: a Chinese financial executive. Well direct business ties to Joe
- 8:59Speaker 1: Biden's crime I'm family. In twenty seventeen, as well, Hunter
- 9:04Speaker 1: requested the keys be made for his new quote office mates,
- 9:09Speaker 1: listing his father, Joe Biden, Joe Biden, his uncle Jim
- 9:14Speaker 1: Biden for his space he planned to share with an
- 9:17Speaker 1: emissary for a chairman of a Chinese energy company. In
- 9:22Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, Joe Biden left Hunter a voicemail telling him
- 9:26Speaker 1: he wanted to discuss his business in China. Hunter and
- 9:30Speaker 1: Joe Biden shared a bank account for years and paid
- 9:33Speaker 1: each other's bills. That also was com mingling the business
- 9:37Speaker 1: and the family money. In fact, it wasn't really co
- 9:40Speaker 1: mingling it. It was set that way on purpose. Now
- 9:43Speaker 1: remember he said, oh, I never talked about any of this, right,
- 9:46Speaker 1: I never. We never talked business. That is not true.
- 9:52Speaker 1: It's not true at all. They talked business. They talked
- 9:56Speaker 1: business all the time. In fact, the Biden crime family
- 10:00Speaker 1: and all the shell companies don't exist without the business
- 10:04Speaker 1: that all of this boils down to, which is sharing.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Let me rephrase that from what James Comer said. There
- 10:13Speaker 1: was one product that Biden's had, and that was allowing
- 10:18Speaker 1: people to buy access to the United States government. When
- 10:22Speaker 1: it came to favors that they needed. They needed favors,
- 10:25Speaker 1: you went to the Bidens. You gave them millions of dollars,
- 10:28Speaker 1: and they made things happen. Not only were Joe and
- 10:33Speaker 1: Hunter Biden sharing these bank accounts with the millions of
- 10:35Speaker 1: dollars coming into the Biden crime family, but they had
- 10:37Speaker 1: shell companies and were laundering money. We know now the
- 10:42Speaker 1: Hunter admitted in twenty nineteen that he gives his father
- 10:46Speaker 1: half his salary and has paid for everything for the
- 10:48Speaker 1: entire family for quote thirty years. From December of twenty
- 10:53Speaker 1: eighteen through January of twenty nineteen, Joe Biden helped finance
- 10:59Speaker 1: Hunters lifestyle, specifically with Russian linked at escorts, to the
- 11:06Speaker 1: tune of one hundred thousand dollars. We know that Tony Biblenski,
- 11:11Speaker 1: a former Biden family business partner, detailed publicly how he
- 11:16Speaker 1: met with Joe Biden, also known as the Big Guy.
- 11:19Speaker 1: He said, confirming it discuss the Chinese business deal, the
- 11:23Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party, and the Chinese government entity CEFE. In
- 11:30Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. It was also confirmed just last year
- 11:34Speaker 1: that Hunter's business partners all referred to Joe Biden as
- 11:38Speaker 1: the Big Guy.
- 11:40Speaker 2: How do we know this?
- 11:41Speaker 1: It was referring to Joe Biden as the Big Guy
- 11:43Speaker 1: now in a panic message. The same day, the New
- 11:46Speaker 1: York Post broke news of Hunter Biden's laptop and an
- 11:50Speaker 1: email to Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, and other partners. On
- 11:55Speaker 1: May the thirteenth of twenty seventeen, an investment breakdown was disclosed,
- 12:00Speaker 1: listing ten percent of a lucrative foreign venture that would
- 12:04Speaker 1: be held by Hunter four quote unquote.
- 12:06Speaker 2: The Big Guy.
- 12:08Speaker 1: The identity of the Big Guy has formed part of
- 12:10Speaker 1: a grand jury investigation in Wilmington, Delaware, into Hunter's business dealings.
- 12:17Speaker 1: Now you look at this rundown of Biden family influence
- 12:20Speaker 1: peddling schemes, and what you understand is the evidence that's
- 12:23Speaker 1: been uncovered by the House Oversite Committee reveals that the
- 12:27Speaker 1: Bidens engaged in a pattern of corruption, influence pedaling, and bribery.
- 12:34Speaker 1: Similar evidence has also revealed been revealed now by these
- 12:39Speaker 1: IRIS whistleblowers who were assigned to the US Attorney for
- 12:43Speaker 1: Delaware's investigation to hunter Biden. What of those whistleblowers, said
- 12:49Speaker 1: one IRIS whistleblower, DISCO disclosures confirmed the House Oversite Committee's
- 12:54Speaker 1: investigation of the Biden crime famili's influence peddling schemes. And
- 12:58Speaker 1: according to the financial records by the Oversight Committee, they
- 13:02Speaker 1: now know that the Biden family set up and this
- 13:05Speaker 1: is what James Comber told me, well over twenty shell companies,
- 13:10Speaker 1: most of which were created when Joe Biden was the
- 13:12Speaker 1: vice president. We also know from the whistleblowers this and
- 13:16Speaker 1: IRS whistleblower or whistleblowers I should say plural, have confirmed
- 13:21Speaker 1: the existence of all of these twenty shell companies. We
- 13:25Speaker 1: also can confirm now from all of this testimony, the
- 13:30Speaker 1: bank records that have been obtained by the committee show
- 13:33Speaker 1: that the Biden family, their business associates, and their companies
- 13:38Speaker 1: received over ten million from foreign nationals and their related companies.
- 13:43Speaker 1: In fact, we believe now based on what James Comber said,
- 13:47Speaker 1: that more than twenty million dollars, and it could be
- 13:50Speaker 1: well above that flowed.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Into the Biden crime family.
- 13:55Speaker 1: The Biden's engaged in many internationally complicated financial transactions through
- 14:01Speaker 1: their associates to hide these payments and avoid scrutiny. In
- 14:05Speaker 1: at least one instance, the Bidens Chinese Communist Party linked
- 14:09Speaker 1: associate working for CEFE that Chinese energy company took steps
- 14:15Speaker 1: to deliberately conceal the source of the payments to the Bidens.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Both the Oversight Committee and whistleblowers have confirmed that Hunter
- 14:25Speaker 1: received millions of dollars directly from China, millions of dollars
- 14:29Speaker 1: directly from Ukraine, millions of dollars directly from Romania, and
- 14:34Speaker 1: millions of dollars directly from Russia. We also know that
- 14:38Speaker 1: there are countries that have been left out that are
- 14:41Speaker 1: soon going to be added to that list. IRS whistleblower
- 14:46Speaker 1: testimony also confirms that Joe Biden was involved in the
- 14:50Speaker 1: family shady foreign business deals at every level. In an
- 14:54Speaker 1: interview recorded by the FBI and revealed by the whistleblowers,
- 14:57Speaker 1: a Biden family associate admitted that Joe Biden not only
- 15:01Speaker 1: was the big guy, and that he attended a meeting
- 15:03Speaker 1: with CEFE officials. The associate also added Hunter would purposely
- 15:08Speaker 1: have his father attend his business meetings because CEFE was
- 15:13Speaker 1: hiring the Bidens and the product they delivered was American
- 15:17Speaker 1: government favors. The House Oversight Committee has also reviewed an
- 15:23Speaker 1: unclassified FBI generated FD dashed one zero two to three
- 15:29Speaker 1: record that details an alleged extortion and bribery scheme involving
- 15:35Speaker 1: then Vice President Joe Biden and a Barisma executive. Biden
- 15:39Speaker 1: allegedly received five million for certain actions, but the Barisma
- 15:44Speaker 1: executive stated that he didn't pay quote unquote the big
- 15:48Speaker 1: guy directly and instead used several bank accounts in order
- 15:51Speaker 1: to hide the money.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Let me say that again.
- 15:53Speaker 1: The Barisma executive stated that he didn't pay the big
- 15:56Speaker 1: guy directly. It's too much money. We need to funnel it.
- 16:01Speaker 1: So instead they use several bank accounts and shell companies
- 16:05Speaker 1: in order to hide the money quote unquote. That is
- 16:08Speaker 1: on an FBI generated FD one zero two three form.
- 16:14Speaker 1: The Biden engage the Bidens engaged in intentionally complicated financial
- 16:19Speaker 1: transactions through their associates. It's called money laundering and racketeering.
- 16:24Speaker 1: To hide these payments and avoid scrutiny. We know that
- 16:27Speaker 1: at least in one instance, the Biden Chinese the Biden's
- 16:30Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party linked associates working for CEFE said in
- 16:34Speaker 1: writing that they were taking steps to conceal the source
- 16:37Speaker 1: of the payments to the Bidens. We also know that
- 16:41Speaker 1: there's multiple countries now that are involved. Money was coming
- 16:46Speaker 1: in from China, from Ukraine, from Romania.
- 16:49Speaker 2: And from Russia.
- 16:51Speaker 1: IRS whistleblowers have confirmed that Joe Biden had to be
- 16:54Speaker 1: involved in the family shady foreign business deals or the
- 16:57Speaker 1: deals wouldn't happen because the product they were selling was
- 17:02Speaker 1: government favors. The only person that could deliver that is
- 17:04Speaker 1: Joe Biden. We know that the Oversight Committee has also
- 17:08Speaker 1: received an unclassified FBI generated record that details in alleged
- 17:12Speaker 1: extortion and bribery scheme involving then Vice President Joe Biden
- 17:17Speaker 1: and a Borism executive. We know that Biden received five
- 17:21Speaker 1: million for certain actions and his son received another five million.
- 17:26Speaker 1: We know that the Barism executives stated that quote, he
- 17:29Speaker 1: didn't pay the big guy directly, instead used several bank
- 17:33Speaker 1: accounts in order to hide the money that's on record.
- 17:37Speaker 1: We know that we also know that the IRS whistleblowers
- 17:41Speaker 1: informed Congress that the Justice Department deliberately intervened and deliberately
- 17:47Speaker 1: overstepped an apparent effort to protect the Biden family and
- 17:51Speaker 1: limit where the investigations could go. According to these whistleblowers,
- 17:57Speaker 1: the DOJ refused to follow evidence that implicated Joe Biden.
- 18:02Speaker 1: We also know, according to the whistleblowers, the DOJ tipped
- 18:05Speaker 1: off Hunter Biden's attorneys and allowed the clock to run
- 18:09Speaker 1: out on the statute of limitation on many of the
- 18:13Speaker 1: most serious charges to prevent the ability of even charging
- 18:17Speaker 1: Hunter Biden with felonies. Some of the biggest felonies that
- 18:20Speaker 1: Hunter Biden committed. They purposely slow played it so the
- 18:25Speaker 1: five year mark would hit, and then they said, well,
- 18:27Speaker 1: we can't charge them with those crimes anyway. We know
- 18:31Speaker 1: that President Biden's politically appointed US attorneys for DC and
- 18:35Speaker 1: Central District of California, the whistleblowers say, refused to support
- 18:40Speaker 1: charges sought by the US Attorney in Delaware, David Weiss,
- 18:44Speaker 1: which has now put Hunter Biden on the path to
- 18:45Speaker 1: a sweetheart plea deal. We also know the irs whistleblowers
- 18:50Speaker 1: were never allowed to review and never allowed to even
- 18:56Speaker 1: have the knowledge of that FD dash one two three
- 19:00Speaker 1: form alleging that then Vice President Joe Biden engaged in
- 19:05Speaker 1: a five million dollar bribery scheme even after it was
- 19:12Speaker 1: transmitted transmitted to Delaware. One whistleble or confirmed that they
- 19:17Speaker 1: had potentially corroborating evidence to support the allegations of that
- 19:22Speaker 1: FBI generated file, but they were never told about it,
- 19:25Speaker 1: so therefore they didn't they couldn't back it up. So
- 19:28Speaker 1: let's divide what we now know into two different things.
- 19:34Speaker 1: Let's divide this first into Biden inc. Joe Biden's been
- 19:38Speaker 1: elected since in office since nineteen seventy three. The question
- 19:44Speaker 1: that we asked James Comer is, look is Hunter Biden
- 19:46Speaker 1: a one offer? Have other Biden family members been involved
- 19:49Speaker 1: in these racketeering and money laundering deals for years? The answer,
- 19:54Speaker 1: based on what he said, based on the timeline, based
- 19:58Speaker 1: on the money, is this has been happening for decades.
- 20:02Speaker 1: That's why you got to look at James Biden and
- 20:03Speaker 1: James Biden other brother. We also know now that there's
- 20:06Speaker 1: at least nine Biden family members on the take, and
- 20:08Speaker 1: it looks like there's another three that will be added
- 20:12Speaker 1: to that list very soon.
- 20:15Speaker 2: In nineteen seventy five by the way.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Shortly after Joe Biden became a senator, Joe's younger brother, James,
- 20:21Speaker 1: and his business partner, received a half a million dollar
- 20:23Speaker 1: loan from First Pennsylvania Bank, despite having only forty thousand
- 20:26Speaker 1: dollars in combined assets. Sources at the bank said the
- 20:32Speaker 1: loan was made because James was Joe Biden's brother. It
- 20:35Speaker 1: was in nineteen seventy five. In nineteen seventy seven, excuse me, let.
- 20:41Speaker 2: Me let me rephrase that. There's a lot of numbers.
- 20:43Speaker 2: I'm dealing with my head here.
- 20:45Speaker 1: In nineteen ninety seven, i should say, Joe Biden's National
- 20:50Speaker 1: finance chairman and fundraiser extended a two hundred thousand dollars
- 20:55Speaker 1: loan to James Biden when he and his wife, Sarah
- 20:58Speaker 1: bought a six hundred fifty thousand dollar villa outside of Pennsylvania.
- 21:03Speaker 1: That's not normal. We know now for sure that in
- 21:07Speaker 1: two thousand, James Biden, the brother of Joe Biden, and
- 21:10Speaker 1: his wife received a three hundred and fifty thousand dollars
- 21:13Speaker 1: loan from Leonard Barrack, a Philadelphia lawyer and former Democratic
- 21:20Speaker 1: National Committee finance chairman. Joe Biden the Senate Judiciary Committee
- 21:25Speaker 1: chairman at the time, Head named Iraq a campaign donor
- 21:30Speaker 1: to his honorary Council of Advisors while he was the
- 21:35Speaker 1: chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. A few months after
- 21:39Speaker 1: that loan, James Biden paid off a one hundred and
- 21:44Speaker 1: forty five thousand dollars IRS lean. In two thousand and five,
- 21:49Speaker 1: Scott Green, a lobbyist with close ties to Joe Biden,
- 21:53Speaker 1: purchased an undeveloped US Virgin Island property we're being told
- 21:58Speaker 1: with James Biden and extended him a private mortgage.
- 22:03Speaker 2: That's not normal.
- 22:04Speaker 1: That's a lobbyist who's purchasing a US Virgin Island property
- 22:09Speaker 1: with James Biden and then extending him a private mortgage.
- 22:13Speaker 2: That's not normal.
- 22:15Speaker 1: In two thousand and eight, we now know that Valerie
- 22:18Speaker 1: biden Owens firm received two and a half million in
- 22:24Speaker 1: consulting fees from Citizens for Biden and Biden for President, Inc.
- 22:31Speaker 2: That's what money laundering sounds like, by the way.
- 22:34Speaker 1: In twenty ten, we also know that James Biden was
- 22:38Speaker 1: named an executive role to an executive role at Hillstone International,
- 22:44Speaker 1: despite a lack of previous experience and following his appointment,
- 22:48Speaker 1: Hillstone achieved a one point five billion dollar contract to
- 22:54Speaker 1: build housing in Iraq. Let me see it again. Twenty ten.
- 22:57Speaker 1: We're talking about the war in Iraq going on. The
- 23:00Speaker 1: brother of Joe Biden, James Biden, is named as an
- 23:02Speaker 1: executive at a at a company called Hillstone International. He
- 23:07Speaker 1: has no previous experience in building houses, much less building
- 23:10Speaker 1: houses in a war zone.
- 23:13Speaker 2: And after he is named.
- 23:14Speaker 1: To this executive role at Hillstone, despite any previous experience,
- 23:21Speaker 1: they then give him one point five billion dollar contract
- 23:24Speaker 1: to build housing in Iraq. Now, these whistleblowers have come
- 23:29Speaker 1: forward and risked their entire lives and their careers. They
- 23:33Speaker 1: have risked their lives telling the story. They have risked
- 23:37Speaker 1: their lives and their careers by saying this is wrong
- 23:43Speaker 1: what our government is doing to protect to protect the Bidens.
- 23:47Speaker 2: Now, this cover up is one that is significant.
- 23:51Speaker 1: James Comer, he was on last night on Fox as well,
- 23:55Speaker 1: and one of the things that he said to last
- 23:59Speaker 1: night to.
- 24:01Speaker 2: Sean Hannity, I want to play this for you. Listen
- 24:04Speaker 2: to what he said.
- 24:05Speaker 3: Well, the corruption that the Biden families committed, all right,
- 24:08Speaker 3: I want to know.
- 24:10Speaker 4: How much money do you believe the Biden family did
- 24:13Speaker 4: in these foreign business deals. How much money are we
- 24:16Speaker 4: talking about? And how much money do we think went
- 24:20Speaker 4: to Joe? Because Hunter complains bitterly he gave half a.
- 24:26Speaker 2: Pairs and the big guy.
- 24:29Speaker 4: And I'm sitting here next to my father in the
- 24:31Speaker 4: WhatsApp message, do you believe you'll be able to tie
- 24:35Speaker 4: this money to Joe? And how much money in total?
- 24:37Speaker 3: My exit question, well, I think there's going to be
- 24:40Speaker 3: easily twenty five to thirty million plus. And the big
- 24:45Speaker 3: development happened today that I don't think anyone's picked up yet.
- 24:48Speaker 3: I asked the question. The very last question I asked
- 24:51Speaker 3: when I had time yielded to me by representing Berlason
- 24:53Speaker 3: in Missouri, was would you be willing to hand over
- 24:57Speaker 3: the paperwork with respect to foreign transactions? Because it's been
- 25:03Speaker 3: almost impossible for my committee to subpoena bank records from
- 25:07Speaker 3: foreign countries. The IRIS has that and they're willing to
- 25:10Speaker 3: turn that over to the Ways and Means Committee, who
- 25:12Speaker 3: will then hand it over to us. That's a big deal, Shaw,
- 25:15Speaker 3: because we suspect that the Bidens had offshore bank accounts
- 25:20Speaker 3: and that today was a huge development that will open
- 25:23Speaker 3: up a new door for us to move forward in
- 25:25Speaker 3: our investigation the walls of closing in Congressman, did.
- 25:29Speaker 1: You hear what he said the Bidens had He says
- 25:33Speaker 1: offshore bank accounts, and they were using these offshore bank.
- 25:37Speaker 2: Accounts, I mean.
- 25:40Speaker 1: Offshore bank accounts folks twenty five to thirty million.
- 25:44Speaker 2: He also said this.
- 25:46Speaker 5: Sequences if any of this testimony was untrue.
- 25:48Speaker 4: All right, twenty seconds, last answer, Greg Jarrett. Will Joe
- 25:53Speaker 4: Biden be tied to this money, because it seems more
- 25:56Speaker 4: and more every day like that that's going to happen.
- 26:01Speaker 6: I think he will. But he doesn't have to be
- 26:04Speaker 6: in order to have committed crimes. It is a crime
- 26:09Speaker 6: for a public official to confer a benefit on a
- 26:13Speaker 6: foreign entity in exchange for money to himself or his family.
- 26:18Speaker 6: He doesn't have to receive anything to have committed a
- 26:21Speaker 6: whole host crime.
- 26:23Speaker 4: If you give Ukraine a billion dollars, if they fire
- 26:26Speaker 4: a prosecutor so your son can make money in a
- 26:29Speaker 4: field he has no experience, and I think that might qualify.
- 26:32Speaker 6: It's a violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. It's
- 26:36Speaker 6: a crime.
- 26:36Speaker 4: It's a felony, Greg Jared, thank you, John.
- 26:39Speaker 2: It's a crime. It is a felony.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Now, these whistleblowers who are coming forward and saying what
- 26:48Speaker 1: they're saying, connecting these dots, it sounds like they're inspiring
- 26:52Speaker 1: others to come forward from what we understand, and they're like,
- 26:55Speaker 1: all right, if these guys are going to do it,
- 26:56Speaker 1: we're going to do it too. We're gonna come down
- 27:01Speaker 1: on this, We're going to talk about this, and we're
- 27:04Speaker 1: going to deal with it. GOP Representative Jason Smith had
- 27:11Speaker 1: this to say about the whistleblowers as well, and these
- 27:15Speaker 1: claims about Hunter Biden knowing that he was laundering money,
- 27:20Speaker 1: and the media is saying this isn't true.
- 27:22Speaker 2: They're wrong, They're lying to you.
- 27:24Speaker 5: Listen, these two courageous whistleblowers provided my committee with devastating
- 27:31Speaker 5: testimony showing that the government is not treating all taxpayers equally,
- 27:37Speaker 5: and the DOJ and the IRS gave preferential treatment to
- 27:42Speaker 5: the President's son during a criminal investigation into his taxes.
- 27:47Speaker 5: These individuals in front of us today are credible and
- 27:50Speaker 5: set for nearly fifteen hours of interviews with both Republicans
- 27:55Speaker 5: and Democrats. I personally took part in the interview with Ziegler.
- 28:01Speaker 5: Here's what we learned from the interviewees. The IRS recommended
- 28:06Speaker 5: multiple The IRS recommended multiple felony charges against Hunter Biden
- 28:13Speaker 5: for taxiars twenty fourteen through twenty nineteen relating to at
- 28:18Speaker 5: least eight point three million in income from foreign companies,
- 28:23Speaker 5: including one based in including companies based in China, Romania,
- 28:28Speaker 5: and Ukraine, and that is the only amount discovered. Despite
- 28:33Speaker 5: the roadblocks and obstruction their investigation face, the Department of
- 28:38Speaker 5: Justice engaged in a campaign to delay, divulge, and deny
- 28:44Speaker 5: that investigation. They delayed investigators for years, leading to the
- 28:49Speaker 5: expiration of the statute of limitations for many of the
- 28:53Speaker 5: crimes involved. They divulged key investigative details to Biden's attorneys
- 29:00Speaker 5: and even the president's transition team. And they denied investigators
- 29:06Speaker 5: the ability to authenticate evidence, serve warrants, question witnesses, and
- 29:12Speaker 5: bring charges. This led to Hunter Biden's sweetheart agreement, announced
- 29:19Speaker 5: five years after the investigation started, but mere days before
- 29:24Speaker 5: my committee voted to publicly release this testimony. What Americans
- 29:29Speaker 5: in my congressional district are any other congressional district ever
- 29:33Speaker 5: receive this same treatment. After raising their concerns internally at
- 29:40Speaker 5: the IRS, these whistleblowers were discouraged and demoralized and turned
- 29:45Speaker 5: to Congress as a last resort. They bravely reported wrongdoing
- 29:50Speaker 5: to us. And what have President Biden's allies, including Hunter
- 29:55Speaker 5: Biden's lawyers done. They've responded with a vicious a vicious
- 30:01Speaker 5: smear campaign to discredit these whistleblowers and discourage others from
- 30:06Speaker 5: coming forward, and may have even coordinated with the White
- 30:10Speaker 5: House on this effort.
- 30:12Speaker 1: This is a disgrace.
- 30:15Speaker 5: I urge any IRS employee watching today if you know
- 30:19Speaker 5: of misconduct, please come to the Ways and Means Committee
- 30:24Speaker 5: so we can hold accountable those who are responsible. And
- 30:28Speaker 5: let me be clear, there will be zero tolerance for
- 30:34Speaker 5: any retaliation against whistleblowers by DOJ and the IRS. The
- 30:40Speaker 5: American people expect answers about whether the federal government is
- 30:45Speaker 5: treating all taxpayers equally or if the wealthy and politically
- 30:50Speaker 5: connected gets special treatment. Our committees are working together to
- 30:55Speaker 5: get to the bottom of this abuse of power and
- 30:58Speaker 5: will work tirelessly to do so and to make sure
- 31:01Speaker 5: it doesn't ever happen again. Americans should not have to
- 31:05Speaker 5: accept two tiers of justice in this country. One if
- 31:10Speaker 5: your last name is Biden and one for everybody else.
- 31:14Speaker 5: I want to thank both whistleblowers for coming forward publicly
- 31:18Speaker 5: and for your testimony today.
- 31:20Speaker 1: By the way, he summed that up perfectly, and that's
- 31:22Speaker 1: why I wanted you to hear that. He was talking
- 31:24Speaker 1: about just how brave these people are what they're saying
- 31:26Speaker 1: and why they're coming forward. God bless them for doing it.
