Latest / The Ben Ferguson Podcast / Double Standard Emerges among Democrats as NYC Mayor Adams' Fundraising Chief's Home gets Raided
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I want you to imagine right now how angry you
- 0:04Speaker 1: would be if you're a Democrat in New York City
- 0:08Speaker 1: knowing that the FBI has raided the home of New
- 0:12Speaker 1: York Mayor Eric Adams' fundraising chief. Yet Hunter Biden's house
- 0:18Speaker 1: has never been raided. James Biden, Joe Biden, or any
- 0:22Speaker 1: of the Biden's homes have never been raided. After what
- 0:26Speaker 1: we know that they have been doing, including using multiple
- 0:30Speaker 1: Burner email accounts and hooking the family up with direct
- 0:34Speaker 1: access to money coming from the Chinese communist entities. Now
- 0:39Speaker 1: think about that as I tell you about this breaking
- 0:41Speaker 1: news story. The FBI and the New York Police Department
- 0:46Speaker 1: raided the home of New York City Mayor Eric adams
- 0:49Speaker 1: chief fundraiser as part of an investigation to alleged illegal
- 0:54Speaker 1: funds received from a foreign government. The mayor then had
- 0:59Speaker 1: to cancel a White House meeting centered on the current
- 1:03Speaker 1: migrant crisis burning New York City, with sources telling CBS
- 1:08Speaker 1: News that he learned of an international probe into foreign
- 1:12Speaker 1: government influence peddling. You probably heard the report involving one
- 1:18Speaker 1: of my campaign staffers, and listen, everyone knows me. I
- 1:23Speaker 1: comply with the rules. We're going to comply with an
- 1:25Speaker 1: inquiry and we will all do that. Adam said in response,
- 1:33Speaker 1: that is what we do. I have not been contacted
- 1:36Speaker 1: by anyone involving this, and I'm just going to continue
- 1:40Speaker 1: running this city, the greatest city on the globe, Eric
- 1:44Speaker 1: Adams said. Adam's campaign lawyer said the mayor received no
- 1:49Speaker 1: word of an impending raid which happened early Thursday morning
- 1:53Speaker 1: and Crown Heights, Brooklyn Mayor Adams has not been contacted
- 1:58Speaker 1: as part of this inquiry. He has always held the
- 2:01Speaker 1: campaign to the highest standards. Well if that was true,
- 2:03Speaker 1: then why are they rating the home of his campaign financer.
- 2:09Speaker 1: What we also know is this FBI agents were seeing
- 2:13Speaker 1: carrying evidence boxes from the home the mayor's chief fundraiser,
- 2:18Speaker 1: Brianna Suggs, according to CBS News. Sources said the Crown
- 2:23Speaker 1: Heights trade was one of multiple locations visited by police
- 2:27Speaker 1: and federal agents as part of an international probe into
- 2:31Speaker 1: what two sources describe as foreign government influence peddling.
- 2:36Speaker 2: So let me get this straight.
- 2:38Speaker 1: The same Democrats in New York City that lied to
- 2:41Speaker 1: the American people saying that there was Russian collusion and
- 2:45Speaker 1: a Stele dossier that was created out of thin air
- 2:47Speaker 1: by the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign are
- 2:51Speaker 1: now being investigated and raids are being carried out because
- 2:55Speaker 1: of foreign influence pedaling probes. Just think about that, Okay,
- 3:03Speaker 1: foreign government the word the exact words, foreign government, influencing,
- 3:08Speaker 1: influence peddling. We also know FBI agents with a public
- 3:13Speaker 1: corruption squad also reportedly questioned Suggs during the raid, who
- 3:18Speaker 1: has not been charged with a crime. There has been
- 3:22Speaker 1: no indication that the agents found evidence implicating her. One
- 3:27Speaker 1: source even said that the probe includes possible illegal funds
- 3:30Speaker 1: received from our adversary, Turkey, which Adams reportedly visited before
- 3:37Speaker 1: taking office. Suggs, a fundraiser and lobbyists, has earned nearly
- 3:43Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars over the past two years for
- 3:46Speaker 1: her services. The mayor heard of an issue related to
- 3:50Speaker 1: the campaign and takes these issues seriously, so he wanted
- 3:53Speaker 1: to get back to New York as quickly as possible.
- 3:56Speaker 1: He plans to return to Washington and to reschedule these
- 3:58Speaker 1: meetings as soon as he can. The meetings that were
- 4:00Speaker 1: canceled with the White House. I'm sure the White House said, hey,
- 4:04Speaker 1: you guys are getting raided. We don't want you here today.
- 4:07Speaker 1: According to The New York Times, investigators were also seeking
- 4:09Speaker 1: to quote learn more about the potential involvement of a
- 4:13Speaker 1: Brooklyn construction company with company with ties to our adversary Turkey,
- 4:19Speaker 1: as well as a small university in Washington, d C.
- 4:22Speaker 1: That also has ties to the country and to Mayor
- 4:26Speaker 1: Adams quote unquote. According to search warrant, investigators were also
- 4:32Speaker 1: focused on whether the mayor's campaign kicked back benefits to
- 4:37Speaker 1: the construction company's officials and employees and to Turkish officials.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Is now what is in the report? Let me read
- 4:46Speaker 2: that again.
- 4:48Speaker 1: According to the search warrant, investigators were also focused on
- 4:53Speaker 1: whether the mayor's campaign kicked back benefits to the construction
- 4:57Speaker 1: companies officials and employees and to Turkish officials. So, if
- 5:03Speaker 1: you want to know about collusion with a adversary that
- 5:06Speaker 1: you asked, that would be Turkey. And you want to
- 5:09Speaker 1: know who now is being rated for it, It's not Republicans, No, no, no,
- 5:15Speaker 1: it's Democrats and the mayor of one of the biggest
- 5:19Speaker 1: cities that is not the biggest city in America. Now,
- 5:22Speaker 1: let me also connect this to another scandal that's happening
- 5:26Speaker 1: right now. The media is not really focusing on this
- 5:30Speaker 1: because this man gave insane amounts of money to the
- 5:33Speaker 1: Democratic Party. You may remember Sam Bankman Freed. Notice how
- 5:40Speaker 1: fast his jury trial happened. Remember it wasn't even what
- 5:46Speaker 1: a year ago that he was being extradited from another
- 5:50Speaker 1: country where he had set up I think it was
- 5:52Speaker 1: the Bahamas, his cryptocurrency scheme. It was clearly a fraud,
- 5:57Speaker 1: but he gave insane amounts of money right before, before
- 6:00Speaker 1: the last election cycle to Democrats. He was meeting and
- 6:04Speaker 1: hanging out with the top Democrats on Capitol Hill hoping
- 6:07Speaker 1: that they would look the other way. Sam Bateman Freed
- 6:11Speaker 1: has been convicted of fraud. He now faces over one
- 6:13Speaker 1: hundred years in prison. How many Democrats got donations from
- 6:17Speaker 1: stolen dollars from Sam Bateman Free?
- 6:19Speaker 2: A lot?
- 6:19Speaker 1: How many gave it back virtually none? Sam Bateman Freed
- 6:23Speaker 1: and Democrats made sure they hurried this guy to a
- 6:26Speaker 1: jury trial and made sure that they could get him
- 6:28Speaker 1: out of the way so he'd shut up in prison.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Sam Bateman Freed has been found guilty of all charges
- 6:34Speaker 1: stemming from the collapse of his cryptocurrency exchange company FT X,
- 6:39Speaker 1: a New York jury in Manhattan Federal Court agreed with
- 6:42Speaker 1: prosecutors that Bankman Freed to frauded investors, customers, and lenders
- 6:48Speaker 1: in connection with the collapse of his crypto empire. Prosecutors
- 6:52Speaker 1: accused Bankman Freed, who funded and controlled both FTX and
- 6:57Speaker 1: sister Hedge fund Alameda Research, of misappropriating and embezzling quote
- 7:04Speaker 1: billions of dollars in FTX customer deposits, scheming to mislead investors,
- 7:11Speaker 1: and instructing other executives at his business to do the same.
- 7:16Speaker 1: And the first of two criminal trials. Bankman Freed received
- 7:19Speaker 1: five counts conspiracy and two counts of wire fraud, which
- 7:22Speaker 1: all amount up to one hundred and.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Ten years in prison.
- 7:25Speaker 1: His sentencing hearing has been set for March the twenty
- 7:29Speaker 1: eight of next year. Damian Williams, the US Attorney for
- 7:32Speaker 1: the Southern District of New York, praised the verdict as
- 7:34Speaker 1: he declared that Bankman Freed perpetrated one of the biggest
- 7:37Speaker 1: financial frauds in American history, and guests who allowed him
- 7:40Speaker 1: to get away with it. The Democratic Party quote, the
- 7:43Speaker 1: cryptocurrency industry might be new. The players like Bankman Free
- 7:47Speaker 1: might be new, Williams said, but this kind of fraud,
- 7:50Speaker 1: this kind of corruption, is as old as time. NBC
- 7:55Speaker 1: News provided some history and context leading up to the verdicts,
- 7:58Speaker 1: saying this FTX and Alameda quickly collapsed in November of
- 8:02Speaker 1: last year, so they got this guy convicted in less
- 8:05Speaker 1: than a year after some of their financial liabilities were exposed.
- 8:09Speaker 1: The fact that Alameda had taken billions of dollars from
- 8:12Speaker 1: FTX customers, and that much of Alameda's balance sheets was
- 8:16Speaker 1: comprised of digital currency assets it had created, was central
- 8:21Speaker 1: to the case against Bankman Freed. Unnerved by disclosures about
- 8:25Speaker 1: the firm's financial position, many of xts's customers tried to
- 8:29Speaker 1: get their money back. That set off the equivalent of
- 8:32Speaker 1: a bank run. The value of Alameda's investments crashed, and
- 8:35Speaker 1: FTX couldn't return much of that money because it had
- 8:38Speaker 1: been given to Alameda. Some went to the funds lenders,
- 8:42Speaker 1: and billions were spent on sponsorship on commercials and loans
- 8:47Speaker 1: to top executives and athletes. That, too, was a major
- 8:51Speaker 1: part of the case against Bankman Freed. Other FTX and
- 8:55Speaker 1: Almeda leadership had been charged in the wake of the collapse,
- 8:58Speaker 1: including the former Alameda CEO, h the co founder Gary Wang,
- 9:02Speaker 1: an FTX technology chief, who all pled guilty and agreed
- 9:06Speaker 1: to cooperate with a prosecution and testify against Bankman Freed.
- 9:10Speaker 1: They will be receiving lighter sentences as a result. Bankman
- 9:14Speaker 1: Freed's defense argued that he never intended to quote defraud
- 9:17Speaker 1: people and claim that the government had been looking for
- 9:19Speaker 1: a fall guy in the wake of the XTX and
- 9:22Speaker 1: Alomi to collapse. Mister Bateman Freed maintains his innocence and
- 9:26Speaker 1: will continue to vigorously fight the charges against him, The
- 9:29Speaker 1: Council for Bankman Freed said in the response to the verdict.
- 9:32Speaker 1: So who was he giving his money to? He was
- 9:35Speaker 1: giving his money to the Democratic Party. You want to
- 9:39Speaker 1: know how much of a liability Bankman Freed is the
- 9:41Speaker 1: Democratic Party?
- 9:42Speaker 2: Just look at his donations.
- 9:44Speaker 1: This guy knew he was running a Ponzi scheme, and
- 9:47Speaker 1: he knew that the Democratic Party could help him cover
- 9:50Speaker 1: up that Ponzi scheme. Let me give you a perfect
- 9:52Speaker 1: examta example. Betho Arouric kept one hundred thousand dollars in
- 9:57Speaker 1: Sam Bateman Freed donations. Failed Texas gubernatorial candidate bet To
- 10:01Speaker 1: O'Rourke has claimed that he returned a one million dollar
- 10:05Speaker 1: donation from the disgraced former FTX CEO Sam Bateman Freed. However,
- 10:10Speaker 1: it appears that he did not return all of the money,
- 10:13Speaker 1: according to a new report. A spokesman for O'Rourke said
- 10:16Speaker 1: in November that the campaign returned the unsolicited one million
- 10:20Speaker 1: dollar donation Bankman Free gave the Texas Democrat in October,
- 10:24Speaker 1: and aroke spokesman said he that the refund was issued
- 10:28Speaker 1: prior quote unquote to fdx's bankruptcy and the discovery of
- 10:32Speaker 1: Bateman Freed's reported illegal business practices. However, the Washington Free
- 10:37Speaker 1: Bay Beacon found that the AROIC team did not return
- 10:40Speaker 1: all of the money, but Orourke's latest campaign filing contradicted
- 10:45Speaker 1: that assurances to the American people and report that week,
- 10:48Speaker 1: the campaign disclosed a nine hundred thousand dollars refund to
- 10:52Speaker 1: the Banateman Freed on November fourth, the campaign said it
- 10:56Speaker 1: is holding on to the other one hundred thousand pending
- 10:58Speaker 1: the outcome of the investigationation of Bankman Freed, who had
- 11:01Speaker 1: been charged with campaign finance violations and fraud related to
- 11:06Speaker 1: his cryptocurrency firm FTX. The Eric campaign said it will
- 11:11Speaker 1: place the money in a fund for the victims of
- 11:13Speaker 1: FTX collapse. It's not clear why the campaign only reserved
- 11:17Speaker 1: part of the donation for victims, and the pledge contradicts
- 11:20Speaker 1: the campaign's initial claim that it received and returned Bankman
- 11:24Speaker 1: Freed's donations before news broke out of his wrongdoing. As
- 11:28Speaker 1: you know, FTX then declared bankruptcy in November eleventh of
- 11:31Speaker 1: last year. But hey, why not keep another one hundred
- 11:34Speaker 1: k on the books, right? It would come in handy
- 11:36Speaker 1: for betto Auroric, whose campaign had just two hundred and
- 11:39Speaker 1: twelve thousand cash on hand. It's unclear whether a Rock
- 11:43Speaker 1: plans to run for office in the future. He lost
- 11:45Speaker 1: by eleven points this year to Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
- 11:49Speaker 1: He also lost in twenty eighteen the Senate race against
- 11:51Speaker 1: Senator Ted Cruz and dropped out of the twenty twenty
- 11:53Speaker 1: Democratic presidential race two months before the first primary. Now
- 11:58Speaker 1: that's just one example of some of the Democrats who
- 12:03Speaker 1: were taking big donations. But we're talking about massive amounts
- 12:09Speaker 1: of money that they were giving. In fact, Sam Bankman
- 12:14Speaker 1: Freed was considered a Democratic super donor because he was
- 12:21Speaker 1: giving so much money to the Democratic Party they had
- 12:25Speaker 1: marked him as one of their biggest donors.
- 12:28Speaker 2: In fact, he was the second biggest donor.
- 12:31Speaker 1: And the last election cycle before he went bankrupt with
- 12:34Speaker 1: this Ponzi scheme, the only person that was giving more
- 12:37Speaker 1: money to Democratic Party from what we can see is
- 12:40Speaker 1: George Soros. So this guy understood something. He understood he
- 12:45Speaker 1: could buy off Democrats a lot easier than he could
- 12:49Speaker 1: buy off Conservatives. That's what we now understand, and that
- 12:55Speaker 1: is why they took him so quickly to trial in
- 12:58Speaker 1: New York. That's why they've done everything they can very
- 13:01Speaker 1: quickly to get rid of Bankman Freed. Let me give
- 13:05Speaker 1: you another headline why they needed to nail this guy
- 13:08Speaker 1: and put him in prison forever. This wasn't because it
- 13:10Speaker 1: was because of what he did. It's because if he
- 13:14Speaker 1: was walking around outside of jail, he was going to
- 13:18Speaker 1: be such a liability to the Democratic Party. Sam Bankman
- 13:21Speaker 1: Freed aimed to outpace George Soros as the largest Democratic donor.
- 13:26Speaker 1: The disgraced Forma Xdfco tried to build a political empire
- 13:30Speaker 1: to rival Democratic megadnor George Soros. Put News reported that
- 13:35Speaker 1: Theodore Scheffler wrote that Bankman Freed personally bought a Democratic startup, Deck,
- 13:40Speaker 1: spending roughly four to five million to buy out the
- 13:43Speaker 1: existing investors of to the Democratic analytics firm. Bankman Freed
- 13:48Speaker 1: reportedly heard about the startup from Mind the Gap, a
- 13:51Speaker 1: Democratic donor network funded by his mother, Barbara Bankman Freed.
- 13:56Speaker 1: The purchase of Deck served as Bankman Freed's political scheme
- 13:59Speaker 1: to be the biggest donor in the Democratic Party, even
- 14:03Speaker 1: outshining all other Democratic mega donors.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Bankman Freed and Ryan Salam Co.
- 14:09Speaker 1: CEO of FTX Digital Market, served as two of the
- 14:12Speaker 1: largest donors to the Democrats in the last cycle. Bankman
- 14:17Speaker 1: Freed fell just below Soros is the largest Democratic donor
- 14:21Speaker 1: period In all Bankman Free donated roughly forty million to
- 14:26Speaker 1: Democratic politicians and packs.
- 14:29Speaker 2: That's a lot of money.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Not to be clear, he gave money the Republicans, but
- 14:33Speaker 1: nowhere near what he gave to Democrats. This is shocking
- 14:37Speaker 1: but not surprising if you understand how the Democratic Party works.
- 14:41Speaker 1: Puck News wrote that the former FTX CEO sought advisors
- 14:44Speaker 1: and conducted data experiments to help Democrats as well. In
- 14:47Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election, cycle. I have previously reported
- 14:52Speaker 1: that Sam Bateman Fried's team was actively looking for future
- 14:55Speaker 1: advisors to join them and drafting plays for the Democratic
- 14:59Speaker 1: Party for the twenty four presidential cycle, and that one
- 15:03Speaker 1: of those ideas was to find some more progressive organizations.
- 15:08Speaker 1: For instance, some of those plans were already underway. I've
- 15:12Speaker 1: learned in recent days that Sam Bateman Freed was already
- 15:15Speaker 1: quietly funding some experiments across the democratic ecosystems, such as
- 15:20Speaker 1: randomized controlled trials, that might have yielded data that could
- 15:24Speaker 1: help Democrats in twenty twenty four, according to two people
- 15:27Speaker 1: familiar with the work, by assessing the impact of things
- 15:31Speaker 1: like community newsletters, Facebook ads, and so called relational organizing.
- 15:37Speaker 1: In all reports suggest that bankman Freed might have spent
- 15:40Speaker 1: roughly one hundred million dollars. This would be of stolen
- 15:43Speaker 1: funds to the Democratic Party and packs this guy was
- 15:51Speaker 1: the biggest walking financial liability for the Democratic Party, and
- 15:57Speaker 1: they knew they had to get him convicted, and they
- 16:00Speaker 1: went from indictment to extradition to trial to conviction in
- 16:07Speaker 1: literally less than a year from the time that they
- 16:11Speaker 1: filed bankruptcy. It still hasn't been a year since they
- 16:13Speaker 1: filed bankruptcy. Folks, I want you to now think about that.
- 16:18Speaker 1: Let me give you another example. Sam Bankman, Freed and
- 16:21Speaker 1: FTX donated over three hundred thousand dollars to the lawmakers
- 16:24Speaker 1: who are now investigating him. Sam Bankman Freed and his
- 16:28Speaker 1: co founders donated over three hundred thousand to nine lawmakers
- 16:32Speaker 1: who are now investigating the company for wrongdoing. He knew
- 16:35Speaker 1: what he was doing, and they knew what they were
- 16:37Speaker 1: doing where they were taking his money. Bankman Freed and
- 16:40Speaker 1: his co founders donated three thousand, three hundred and fifty
- 16:42Speaker 1: one dollars to nine members of the House Financial Services Committee.
- 16:45Speaker 1: That's bribery, folks. The largest donations were to members of
- 16:50Speaker 1: the Digital Assets Working Group, which is working on cryptocurrency regulation.
- 16:55Speaker 1: So he's saying, here's money, don't regulate me. I'm running
- 16:58Speaker 1: a Ponzi scheme. The House Financial Services Committee announced earlier
- 17:04Speaker 1: that the committee would investigate any wrongdoing by Bankman Freed
- 17:07Speaker 1: and FTX like it matters. Everybody lost their money. Do
- 17:10Speaker 1: you really think it matters now like it would have
- 17:12Speaker 1: beforehand if you guys wouldn't have been cashing his checks
- 17:14Speaker 1: and actually looking at cryptocurrency only Representative Garcia, a Democrat
- 17:21Speaker 1: from Illinois, said she would return the twenty nine hundred
- 17:24Speaker 1: dollars donation from Bankman Freed, everybody else investigating him keeping
- 17:28Speaker 1: the money. Although Bankman Freed had donated to Republicans, ninety
- 17:32Speaker 1: five percent of the donations went to Democrats and Democratic
- 17:35Speaker 1: campaign committees. Bankman Freed's pack Protect Our Future Pack spent
- 17:39Speaker 1: two hundred thousand backing Garcia. The Discray CEO and his
- 17:43Speaker 1: brother Gabrielle gave forty thousand to Representative Richie Torres, Democrat
- 17:47Speaker 1: from New York, campaign and two of his political committees,
- 17:50Speaker 1: the Torrez Victory Fund and La Bamba Pack. Bankman Freed
- 17:55Speaker 1: and his head of Regulatory division gave sixteen thousand, six
- 17:58Speaker 1: hundred the maxination to report reason of Josh Gottenheimer, a
- 18:01Speaker 1: Democrat from New Jersey. Other Bankman Freed employees gave five
- 18:05Speaker 1: hundred dollars to Representive Jim Hines, Democrat from Connecticut, in
- 18:08Speaker 1: niney one hundred to representive Sean Caster, Democrat from Illinois. Torrees,
- 18:13Speaker 1: gottenmer Hines, and Casting were all members of the Digital
- 18:17Speaker 1: Assets Working Group, meaning it took very little money to
- 18:20Speaker 1: in essence brought these members of Congress to not regulate
- 18:24Speaker 1: your industry, which allowed for the biggest financial corruption scandal
- 18:29Speaker 1: of our time, certainly hurting millions of people that were invested.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Bankman Freed also gave eleveny six hundred to another Democrat
- 18:40Speaker 1: from Maine and five thousand dollars a super pack for
- 18:43Speaker 1: another representative Democrat from Iowa. Bankman Freed also generously donated
- 18:49Speaker 1: to Center Debbie Sabinow, Democrat from Michigan, and John Boozman,
- 18:54Speaker 1: Republican from Arkansas, who have pushed a cryptocurrency regulation bill,
- 18:59Speaker 1: the Digital com b Consumer Protection Act, a bill that
- 19:02Speaker 1: Bankman Freed backed. So just bribe everybody, and now you
- 19:06Speaker 1: understand how quickly they were able to get rid of
- 19:08Speaker 1: him and discard him because he was the biggest financial
- 19:12Speaker 1: liability to the Democratic Party. For ten years, Patriot Mobile
- 19:16Speaker 1: has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
- 19:19Speaker 2: And when I say the only one, I mean it.
- 19:21Speaker 2: They're the only one.
- 19:23Speaker 1: They make a huge difference every time that you pay
- 19:25Speaker 1: your bill because they actually get back to conservative causes
- 19:28Speaker 1: and organizations to help you stand up for what you
- 19:33Speaker 1: believe in. While you're paying a bill you're going to
- 19:35Speaker 1: have anyways, This is the part that I love about
- 19:38Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile.
- 19:40Speaker 2: They're making a difference.
- 19:41Speaker 1: Every time you pay your bill, every time you make
- 19:43Speaker 1: a phone call, every time that you send a text message,
- 19:48Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile actually gives money back to protect First and
- 19:52Speaker 1: Second Amendment rights, to protect the lives of unborn children.
- 19:56Speaker 1: And that's what they're doing right now is they celebrate
- 19:59Speaker 1: their tenth and if you switch right now to Patriot Mobile,
- 20:03Speaker 1: they are going to give a donation to help protect
- 20:07Speaker 1: life and to help mothers choose life to an organization
- 20:11Speaker 1: that does everything they can to protect the lives of
- 20:14Speaker 1: unborn children. Then every month when you pay your bill,
- 20:17Speaker 1: they're going to continue to support the causes that I
- 20:20Speaker 1: just mentioned. And this is exactly why you need to
- 20:24Speaker 1: make the switch. If you're tired of woke companies, switch
- 20:28Speaker 1: your cell phone to Patriot Mobile. Whether you are a business,
- 20:32Speaker 1: a small business, or just a family, you can switch,
- 20:35Speaker 1: and they make switching easy. They have a one hundred
- 20:38Speaker 1: percent US based call center making switching extremely easy.
- 20:42Speaker 2: You're going to get.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Nationwide coverage, unlimited talking texts, and usually save real money
- 20:47Speaker 1: on your bill. Nine seven to two Patriot It's nine

- 21:09Speaker 1: it's the may or in New York and his financiers
- 21:12Speaker 1: and people apparently giving him money from and influence and
- 21:15Speaker 1: companies directively going you know, direct directly linked to Turkey,
- 21:20Speaker 1: a navisar of the US.
- 21:21Speaker 2: No problem.
- 21:22Speaker 1: You look at Joe Biden and all the Burner email
- 21:25Speaker 1: accounts and the corruption there, no problem. You look at
- 21:29Speaker 1: Sam Bankman, freed guy comes out of nowhere, got this
- 21:33Speaker 1: shady cryptocurrency, and Democrats are like, what do you need
- 21:37Speaker 1: from us?
- 21:38Speaker 2: Write me a check? What do you need from us?
- 21:44Speaker 2: Write me a check.
- 21:45Speaker 1: You look at the forensic accountant who talked about the
- 21:49Speaker 1: Biden crime family. Here's what he said about their business dealings.
- 21:54Speaker 2: So that's true.
- 21:56Speaker 3: And people say, well, there's no deposit slip that said
- 21:58Speaker 3: to Joe Biden from Hunter, so therefore he's innocent. Is
- 22:02Speaker 3: that how you see it?
- 22:04Speaker 4: No, I've investigated hundreds of fraud's cases. You're not going
- 22:08Speaker 4: to see a direct payment to president Biden or then
- 22:10Speaker 4: Vice President Biden, it would be some sort of indirect benefit.
- 22:14Speaker 4: And you heard Professor Turley say that if there was,
- 22:17Speaker 4: if it was proven, and it hasn't been proven yet,
- 22:19Speaker 4: but if it was proven that there's an indirect benefit
- 22:21Speaker 4: from that president then Vice President Biden or President Biden
- 22:26Speaker 4: derived from the money Hunter Biden received, that could rise
- 22:29Speaker 4: to the level of an impeachable offense.
- 22:31Speaker 3: Something you brought up to me in the break. You
- 22:32Speaker 3: looked up and found out what the average board member
- 22:35Speaker 3: gets paid compared to what Hunter Biden gets paid without
- 22:39Speaker 3: any known expertise. Can you share that with us?
- 22:43Speaker 4: Yeah, I was just curious Hunter Biden was receiving a
- 22:45Speaker 4: million dollars a year to be on the board of
- 22:47Speaker 4: Varissma with no expertise, no known expertise, for an oil company.
- 22:52Speaker 4: I just went and looked at the same year twenty fifteen,
- 22:54Speaker 4: tres On Mobile. Their average compensation for their directors, their
- 22:57Speaker 4: independent directors, was about three hundred fifty thousand dollars a year.
- 23:01Speaker 4: So you have to ask yourself almost two and a
- 23:03Speaker 4: half times the rate, what is parisona paying Hunter Biden
- 23:08Speaker 4: for and why? And what's being given in exchange for
- 23:11Speaker 4: that was it just the illusion of access to Washington
- 23:15Speaker 4: that's the story now, or was there something more? Again,
- 23:18Speaker 4: the American people deserve the truth and we need to
- 23:21Speaker 4: find that out.
- 23:22Speaker 3: And we knew a lot of this stuff going in
- 23:24Speaker 3: the case was outlined. This is the reason for investigation.
- 23:26Speaker 3: My final thought. If I just gave you this case
- 23:28Speaker 3: and you didn't even know the names, and I said,
- 23:31Speaker 3: I laid this out in front of you as a
- 23:32Speaker 3: forensic accountant, is there a reason for an investigation?
- 23:36Speaker 4: Absolutely, when you see this kind of money being moved
- 23:39Speaker 4: around in short periods of time, money coming in large
- 23:42Speaker 4: sums of money, millions of dollars coming into an account
- 23:45Speaker 4: and being rapidly moved from that account to two other
- 23:47Speaker 4: accounts and then distributed to the son of the then
- 23:50Speaker 4: Vice President Biden and now President Biden. Absolutely, And if
- 23:54Speaker 4: you take the names away, I don't care who it is,
- 23:56Speaker 4: whether it's somebody on the other side of the aisle,
- 23:58Speaker 4: I would do that investigate. You know, Look, I think
- 24:01Speaker 4: people are tired. Professor Turley talked about in Washington, the
- 24:06Speaker 4: sale of access is kind of the business of the day.
- 24:09Speaker 4: We need to stop that. We need to get to
- 24:12Speaker 4: the bottom of whether it's on the Democrats side or
- 24:14Speaker 4: the Republican side. This needs to stop, exactly.
- 24:17Speaker 3: And if something else live that comes out of this,
- 24:19Speaker 3: great And that's what you're saying. As an American who
- 24:22Speaker 3: happens to have an expertise in this area, Bruce Saw,
- 24:24Speaker 3: you have to put up with that abuse. I appreciate
- 24:26Speaker 3: your expertise. Too bad you are questioned about it about
- 24:29Speaker 3: your area of expertise from Democrats and said they kept
- 24:31Speaker 3: bringing up Donald Trump.
- 24:33Speaker 1: I mean you listen to that forensic accounting accountant Barismon
- 24:38Speaker 1: paid Hunter Biden two and a half times the rate
- 24:40Speaker 1: that ex unmobile executives get each and every time there
- 24:45Speaker 1: is corruption here. I will give credit to Democrats, I
- 24:48Speaker 1: really will. I mean this, they just don't care if
- 24:54Speaker 1: they have a chance to grab money. And it's from
- 24:59Speaker 1: the shadiest actor in the world, from the oligarchs who
- 25:03Speaker 1: are best friends with Vladimir Putin that compromised the American policy. Fine,
- 25:09Speaker 1: whether it's the Clinton Foundation. I mean a lot of
- 25:14Speaker 1: people forget the Clinton Foundation and the amount of money
- 25:17Speaker 1: that was coming in while she was a Secretary of State,
- 25:19Speaker 1: basically saying you want anything from America, you want it, hell,
- 25:22Speaker 1: you even want to talk to me, you better write
- 25:24Speaker 1: an ice donation the Clinton Foundation. And what happened after
- 25:27Speaker 1: she lost the president campaign? The Clinton Foundation money disappeared,
- 25:32Speaker 1: It disappeared. Foreign governments were giving money, flowing money in
- 25:36Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation. This is no different than what the
- 25:39Speaker 1: Bidens were doing. Remember, she also had those emails, emails
- 25:44Speaker 1: that were that were classified, that were going to a
- 25:47Speaker 1: server in her basement, in a bathroom. Why would you
- 25:52Speaker 1: do that? Why on earth would she do that? Because
- 25:57Speaker 1: you're trying to hide things from the American people. And
- 26:00Speaker 1: when she was told to give it back, what she
- 26:02Speaker 1: do She destroyed the evidence and shattered blackberries phones with
- 26:07Speaker 1: emails on him and then bleach bit the servers so
- 26:11Speaker 1: that you could never see it. And did she get
- 26:13Speaker 1: charged with any crimes. Nope, she didn't get charged with anything. Nothing.
- 26:20Speaker 1: And the question you have to ask yourself is why why?
- 26:25Speaker 1: Because the Democratic Party controls the system now and we
- 26:29Speaker 1: don't know how to fight back hard enough, we refuse
- 26:33Speaker 1: to fight back the way that you need to fight back.
- 26:37Speaker 1: You go back to these recent emails. The other part
- 26:42Speaker 1: of this that I think has not been talked about
- 26:44Speaker 1: enough is the fact that.
- 26:47Speaker 2: It's clear that while all this corruption was.
- 26:50Speaker 1: Happening while Joe Biden was the president vice president she
- 26:53Speaker 1: centered under Barack Obama. Barack Obama and the Barack Obama
- 26:57Speaker 1: White House. They knew exactly what was happening. They had
- 27:01Speaker 1: all the warnings that were needed, all the signs of
- 27:06Speaker 1: this is shady, and they didn't stop this activity by
- 27:10Speaker 1: their vice president either. They knew that when they put
- 27:14Speaker 1: Joe Biden in charge of Ukrainian policy, that he was
- 27:18Speaker 1: exploiting it to his advantage with his son sitting on
- 27:21Speaker 1: the board. They knew that the son was on the
- 27:24Speaker 1: border board of Barisma. They knew that he was involved
- 27:27Speaker 1: in this shady Russian oligarch. They knew what the policies
- 27:32Speaker 1: were that he was implementing, and they knew it played
- 27:34Speaker 1: into the hands of their family personally. This goes back
- 27:39Speaker 1: to that famous statement, never underestimate the ability of Joe
- 27:43Speaker 1: Biden to blank it up. Who said that, Barack Obama?
- 27:48Speaker 1: And why did he say it? Because he knew how
- 27:51Speaker 1: stupid he was when it came to these types of crimes.
- 27:55Speaker 1: He knew what he was doing, but they didn't care
- 27:59Speaker 1: whether it's Sam Bankman Freed, whether it's mayor Adams in
- 28:03Speaker 1: New York, whether it's Joe Biden, you have to notice
- 28:07Speaker 1: that the media is not telling you about any of
- 28:09Speaker 1: this and is refusing to tell you about it. They're
- 28:13Speaker 1: not looking into it, they're covering it up, they're not
- 28:17Speaker 1: asking questions, they're closing the books on any of this.
- 28:22Speaker 1: So this is up to us to continue to expose it.
- 28:28Speaker 2: It's up to us to continue to show the number
- 28:33Speaker 2: of emails and the corruption of the Biden family.
- 28:37Speaker 1: That's up to us. No one else is gonna do it.
- 28:40Speaker 1: I'll say it over and over again. When I give
- 28:42Speaker 1: you this info, please tell your family and your friends
- 28:45Speaker 1: about it. Please make sure that they know what's actually
- 28:50Speaker 1: happening here.
- 28:51Speaker 2: There's more emails we're going to find out about. I
- 28:53Speaker 2: want to under I want you to know that, Okay,
- 28:55Speaker 2: there are a lot more emails that are going to
- 28:58Speaker 2: come up, and when they come out, they're gonna do
- 29:02Speaker 2: everything ken to make sure you look the other way.
