Biden DEMANDS BILLIONS in TAX money for Ukraine or He will Send Your Kids to Fight, plus GOP DEBATE recap · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: We had another presidential debate, another presidential debate. A lot
0:06
Speaker 1: of people probably didn't watch why because it looks like
0:10
Speaker 1: the eventual nominee is eventual nomazines He's going to be
0:13
Speaker 1: a guy by the name of Donald J. Trump, who's
0:15
Speaker 1: got fifty point leads in most states over the rest
0:17
Speaker 1: of the field. Nonetheless, there was four people that went
0:21
Speaker 1: up on stage, and of those four people, they were
0:25
Speaker 1: throwing bigger punches than we've seen before. The most obnoxious
0:29
Speaker 1: person on the stage was a guy by the name
0:32
Speaker 1: of avik Aramaswami. He was on stage to do the
0:36
Speaker 1: I Gotcha questions with Niki Haley.
0:39
Speaker 2: To be clear, I'm not defending NICKI Haley.
0:41
Speaker 1: I'm just laying the groundwork here as he's trying to
0:43
Speaker 1: grab votes from Niki Haley, who has actually had a
0:47
Speaker 1: pretty big increase in her poll number since the last
0:50
Speaker 1: presidential debate. And I want you to hear what Vivic
0:53
Speaker 1: had to say that got everything fired up.
0:56
Speaker 3: I want to say one thing about the tidy Ukraine.
0:58
Speaker 3: If I mentioned foreign policy experience is not the same
1:03
Speaker 3: as foreign policy wisdom. I want everybody at home to
1:06
Speaker 3: note that I was the first person to say we
1:08
Speaker 3: need a reasonable peace deal in Ukraine. Now a lot
1:11
Speaker 3: of the neocons are quietly coming along to that position,
1:14
Speaker 3: with the exceptions of Nikki Haley and Joe Biden, who
1:17
Speaker 3: still support this what I believe is pointless war in Ukraine.
1:21
Speaker 3: And I think those with foreign policy experience. One thing
1:23
Speaker 3: that Joe Biden and Nikki Haley have in common is
1:25
Speaker 3: that neither of them could even state, for you, three
1:28
Speaker 3: provinces in eastern Ukraine that they want to send our troops.
1:32
Speaker 4: To actually fight for. Look at that.
1:35
Speaker 3: This is what I want people to understand these people have.
1:37
Speaker 3: I mean, she has no idea what the hell the
1:39
Speaker 3: names of those provinces are, but she wants to send
1:41
Speaker 3: our sons and daughters and our troops and our military
1:43
Speaker 3: equipment to go fight it. So reject this myth that
1:46
Speaker 3: they've been selling you that somebody had a cup of
1:48
Speaker 3: coffee stint at the UN and that makes eight million
1:50
Speaker 3: bucks after has real foreign policy experience. It takes an
1:53
Speaker 3: outsider to see this through. Look at the blank expression.
1:55
Speaker 5: She doesn't know the names of the provinces when she
1:58
Speaker 5: wants to actually fight from.
2:00
Speaker 2: And there's a puppet the owners right there. Puppet that
2:08
Speaker 2: was the vec's big moment.
2:10
Speaker 4: Now.
2:11
Speaker 1: Chris Christie not happy about that moment, by the way,
2:15
Speaker 1: and he.
2:16
Speaker 2: Was very upset about it.
2:17
Speaker 1: Chris Christine on Ramaswami is and here's what he had
2:21
Speaker 1: to say after the debate when talking about it with CNN.
2:25
Speaker 6: Listen, what we don't disagree on is this is a smart,
2:28
Speaker 6: accomplished woman, and you should stop insulting.
2:34
Speaker 2: Where did that come from?
2:35
Speaker 6: I mean, look, I'm a truth teller, Dana and I look,
2:39
Speaker 6: NICKI and I disagree. I don't think Nicky should be
2:41
Speaker 6: president of the United States, but I'll tell you this.
2:43
Speaker 6: She's a smart woman, and she's an accomplished woman, and
2:46
Speaker 6: she's worked incredibly hard both in South Carolina and in
2:49
Speaker 6: the UN.
2:50
Speaker 4: And I think Vivik does have a woman problem.
2:53
Speaker 6: I do think he insults women's basic intelligence. He's done
2:56
Speaker 6: it over and over and over again. And I guess
2:59
Speaker 6: tonight I had had enough. I had enough of listening
3:01
Speaker 6: to his garbage and as I said, his smart ass
3:04
Speaker 6: Harvard mouth, because that's what it is when he's dictating
3:07
Speaker 6: to me and Nicky Halee, you have committed ourselves to
3:10
Speaker 6: public service. Well, he's been off stealing from seniors to
3:13
Speaker 6: make his fortune.
3:14
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not gonna put up with him anymore.
3:16
Speaker 7: So you call yourself a truth teller, but you're also
3:19
Speaker 7: a very savvy politician.
3:21
Speaker 4: Thank you, You're welcome.
3:23
Speaker 7: And the wind up there is about New Hampshire, and
3:28
Speaker 7: it was very interesting to watch you and Nicki Haley. Certainly,
3:32
Speaker 7: as you said, you disagree about a lot of things,
3:34
Speaker 7: but it seemed as though you were forming a bit
3:36
Speaker 7: of an alliance with her in a place like.
3:39
Speaker 6: No, no, no, Look, I'm a truth teller, Dana, and
3:43
Speaker 6: I'm going to tell the truth if someone's insulting Nicki
3:45
Speaker 6: Haley in a way that was personal.
3:47
Speaker 4: It was nothing about issues.
3:48
Speaker 6: He was saying she's not smart enough to know where
3:50
Speaker 6: things are on the map, that somehow his three year
3:52
Speaker 6: old son is smarter than a woman who served as
3:55
Speaker 6: a two term governor and a UN ambassador.
3:58
Speaker 4: He's a jackass.
3:59
Speaker 6: And if that happens, it's not me, you know, forming
4:02
Speaker 6: an alliance with Nicki Haley.
4:03
Speaker 4: Wait till you see what's gonna happen over the next
4:05
Speaker 4: seven weeks.
4:06
Speaker 2: What's gonna happen.
4:06
Speaker 6: We're gonna be competing against each other hard to try
4:09
Speaker 6: to win New Hampshire.
4:10
Speaker 4: I suspect.
4:13
Speaker 1: You listen to the way that that went down. I
4:15
Speaker 1: think this hurt Vivic significantly. That moment that they were
4:19
Speaker 1: talking about there about his you know daughter, right, you know,
4:23
Speaker 1: talking about his own kid being smarter somehow than Nicki Haley.
4:27
Speaker 2: I think that was a very dumb move for Vivic.
4:31
Speaker 1: My takeaway from this is I think Vivic hurt himself
4:34
Speaker 1: last night because and again listen to this question to
4:39
Speaker 1: Vivic Ramaswami about this.
4:42
Speaker 8: Mister Ramaswami, you have said it was irresponsible for Ambassador
4:47
Speaker 8: Haley to call Hamas's terrorist rampage an attack on America
4:51
Speaker 8: and for her to quote rapidly shout finish them end quote.
4:56
Speaker 8: The Hamas terror attack left dozens of Americans dead and
4:59
Speaker 8: was the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. Why
5:03
Speaker 8: wouldn't it be a good thing to finish Hamas?
5:07
Speaker 3: Finish them was purposefully vague in a discussion that included Iran,
5:10
Speaker 3: which is what I objected to, and I think it's
5:13
Speaker 3: as US president, you have to be responsible. What happened
5:16
Speaker 3: to Israel was dead wrong. What Hamas did was medieval,
5:19
Speaker 3: it was subhuman, it was immoral, and we have to
5:22
Speaker 3: call that out for what it is in October seventh.
5:25
Speaker 3: But to say that that was an attack on America
5:28
Speaker 3: fails a basic test. I mean, Nick, if you can't
5:30
Speaker 3: tell the difference between where Israel is in the US
5:32
Speaker 3: is on a map, I can have my three year
5:33
Speaker 3: old son show you the difference. That is irresponsible because
5:37
Speaker 3: it has major consequences, because that doesn't leave room for
5:39
Speaker 3: what actually is an attack on America. So I believe
5:43
Speaker 3: I have the strongest pro Israel position actually on the stage,
5:46
Speaker 3: even though it's a little bit different than the standard
5:48
Speaker 3: GOP talking points, and it is this the founding vision
5:52
Speaker 3: of Israel. David Ben Gurion, the George Washington figure of Israel, what.
5:55
Speaker 4: Did he believe?
5:56
Speaker 3: He believed that we don't want as Israel to depend
5:59
Speaker 3: on the fleeting sympathies of the West and have our
6:01
Speaker 3: hands tied. I think Israel has an absolute right to
6:05
Speaker 3: defend itself to the fullest without the US, the UN,
6:09
Speaker 3: or the EU or anybody else second guessing their decisions,
6:12
Speaker 3: as the Biden administration guess what is now starting to do.
6:15
Speaker 3: I think that's a more deeply pro Israel position than
6:17
Speaker 3: anybody else, and it keeps the actual lines of accountability
6:20
Speaker 3: clear because it is a pro American position. And as
6:24
Speaker 3: leader of the United States of America, just as the
6:26
Speaker 3: father of two sons, my sole moral duty is to
6:29
Speaker 3: my family. As your next president, my sole moral duty
6:33
Speaker 3: is to you, the people.
6:34
Speaker 4: Of this country.
6:36
Speaker 2: That's how I'm going to lead.
6:37
Speaker 3: So I'll tell Babe, you smoke the terrorists on your
6:39
Speaker 3: southern border. You go ahead, and we're rooting for you.
6:41
Speaker 3: We're going to smoke the terrorists on our own southern border.
6:43
Speaker 3: And that's how I'm gonna lead this country.
6:45
Speaker 2: But Americans were killed in that attack.
6:48
Speaker 3: Americans were killed in that attack, and so if you
6:52
Speaker 3: looked at this terrorist attack and the number of Americans,
6:54
Speaker 3: this would be one of the top ten terrorist attacks
6:56
Speaker 3: in American history.
6:58
Speaker 4: So our own people were.
7:00
Speaker 2: Killed in that attack.
7:01
Speaker 6: And I think it's absolutely appropriate to point that out
7:03
Speaker 6: and to say that we're in this together and we
7:06
Speaker 6: are going.
7:06
Speaker 5: To work with Israel so that these people are brought
7:09
Speaker 5: to justice.
7:10
Speaker 4: I agree with that.
7:12
Speaker 1: I love At the end, he goes, I agree with that.
7:15
Speaker 1: I agree with that. You just said you disagreed with it.
7:18
Speaker 4: Vic.
7:19
Speaker 1: You literally just said that it was and then you
7:22
Speaker 1: said that she's basically so stupid that you can send
7:25
Speaker 1: over your three year old to tell her. Now, I
7:27
Speaker 1: want to be very clear about this. I'm not defending
7:30
Speaker 1: Nikki Haley. What I am saying is and I think
7:33
Speaker 1: that Niki Haley is the neo con candidate. I think
7:35
Speaker 1: she is the mod candidate on that stage.
7:38
Speaker 2: I think she is a.
7:41
Speaker 1: Old school warmongering kind of let's go to war everywhere
7:45
Speaker 1: type politician.
7:46
Speaker 2: I don't like that.
7:47
Speaker 1: I learned and my foreign policy changed after I saw
7:51
Speaker 1: the disaster which was our foreign policy in response to
7:55
Speaker 1: nine to eleven. And I think there was a lot
7:57
Speaker 1: of people that understood that after nine to eleven, the goal,
8:02
Speaker 1: the objective was pretty clear, and that goal in that
8:07
Speaker 1: objective was to say, hey, I am gonna go and
8:12
Speaker 1: defend American interest around the world. The problem was they
8:15
Speaker 1: also added export democracy, which sounded great, which was a disaster.
8:20
Speaker 1: And I don't believe you can do it the way
8:22
Speaker 1: that we try to do it when you take over
8:24
Speaker 1: an entire country and then another country, which is what
8:27
Speaker 1: we did in Iraq in Afghanistan. I also believe that
8:31
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that made billions and billions
8:34
Speaker 1: and billions of dollars off that war, off those Wars,
8:38
Speaker 1: and I have a problem with that as well, because
8:40
Speaker 1: now there's people that like Wars for that reason. Nikki
8:43
Speaker 1: Haley did make eight million dollars after she left the
8:45
Speaker 1: UN And I also don't like the fact that she
8:50
Speaker 1: had made her career at the end under the Trump
8:54
Speaker 1: name and now is so anti Trump.
8:55
Speaker 2: That also bothers me.
8:57
Speaker 1: It's called a loyalty issue, and I also think it's
8:59
Speaker 1: called flip.
9:00
Speaker 2: So I want to be clear.
9:01
Speaker 1: I'm not coming on here saying, oh, I think Nikki
9:04
Speaker 1: Haley Grid had a great night.
9:05
Speaker 2: I think Vivic had a terrible night, and.
9:07
Speaker 1: I think he lost the most of any candidate on stage.
9:11
Speaker 1: The crowd booing Ramaswami comparing Nicki Haley to example for
9:16
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, I think was the low point of the
9:18
Speaker 1: night as well.
9:19
Speaker 3: Listen leadership of this party and criticized Nicki for her
9:23
Speaker 3: corrupt foreign dealings as a military contractor.
9:25
Speaker 4: She said that I have a woman problem.
9:28
Speaker 9: Nikki.
9:28
Speaker 3: I don't have a woman problem, you have a corruption problem.
9:32
Speaker 2: And I think that that's where people need to know.
9:34
Speaker 2: Nikki is corrupt.
9:36
Speaker 5: This is a woman who will send your kids to
9:38
Speaker 5: guy so she can buy a bigger house.
9:41
Speaker 2: This is the problem.
9:42
Speaker 5: Using identity politics more effectively than Kamala Harris is a
9:47
Speaker 5: form of intellectual flaw.
9:49
Speaker 10: And actually in.
9:50
Speaker 5: Instand there's her donor puppet masters wielding their puppet right
9:53
Speaker 5: up here tonight.
9:54
Speaker 2: This is how this game is played.
9:56
Speaker 3: The puppet masters put up their puppet and I reject
9:59
Speaker 3: the use of identity p politics in this party.
10:01
Speaker 2: It has been a cancer.
10:02
Speaker 3: Coming from the left and I'm sick and tired of
10:03
Speaker 3: the double standards. The people of this country are to
10:06
Speaker 3: having two X chromosomes does not nay, thank you, thank.
10:09
Speaker 4: You, sir, thank you.
10:10
Speaker 8: Governor Haley. Would you like to respond, No, it's not
10:14
Speaker 8: worth my time to respond to him.
10:16
Speaker 2: You have been using out on any politics and every stuff.
10:19
Speaker 2: She knows it's true, and that's your chitu. Sar.
10:21
Speaker 8: We're not going to give you a response to the
10:23
Speaker 8: question that was to you.
10:25
Speaker 1: Okay, we got to move on to By the way
10:27
Speaker 1: he held up that whiteboard like piece of paper, it says,
10:30
Speaker 1: NICKI corrupt. It came across as childish, it came across
10:35
Speaker 1: as staged. It was clearly premeditated and pre planned. It
10:41
Speaker 1: wasn't authentic. And to say that Nikki Haley is willing
10:45
Speaker 1: to send your sons and daughters to die in war
10:47
Speaker 1: so she can get a bigger house.
10:49
Speaker 2: I don't believe that is true.
10:52
Speaker 1: And I think if there's anyone, if there's any takeaway
10:55
Speaker 1: from last night's debate, it was simply that Vivic probably
11:00
Speaker 1: had the worst debate I've ever seen of someone who
11:03
Speaker 1: legitimately was supposed to be on that debate stage at
11:06
Speaker 1: this point in a campaign, this's your fourth debate, and
11:09
Speaker 1: it was like he'd never been there before and was
11:12
Speaker 1: just trying to knock everybody out, and that's not how
11:14
Speaker 1: you do debates. And it was it was bush league
11:18
Speaker 1: comments that got him in trouble. It was the childish
11:21
Speaker 1: comments that I think got him in trouble. And by
11:23
Speaker 1: the way, do I think he has a woman problem?
11:24
Speaker 1: I don't know if he did before last night, but
11:26
Speaker 1: I certainly think he does after last night. All right,
11:30
Speaker 1: let me tell you real quick about an amazing company
11:33
Speaker 1: called Patriot Mobile. For ten years, they have been America's
11:36
Speaker 1: only Christian conservative wireless provider. And when I say only
11:41
Speaker 1: trust me, they're the only one. Glenn and the team
11:44
Speaker 1: have been great supporters of this show, which is why
11:47

12:53
Speaker 1: phone call Patriotmobile dot com slash Ferguson or nine seven
12:57
Speaker 1: to two Patriot. So you want to know what it
13:01
Speaker 1: sounds like to be held hostage by your own President
13:04
Speaker 1: of the United States of America, Joe Biden. It sounds
13:08
Speaker 1: just like this Biden walking out at the White House
13:11
Speaker 1: and telling you that if you don't give him the
13:12
Speaker 1: funding that he needs for the war in Ukraine right now,
13:17
Speaker 1: that he'll send your boys and girls, your sons and daughters,
13:22
Speaker 1: your husbands and wives to go to war with Vladimir Putin.
13:28
Speaker 1: That is the new threat coming from the White House.
13:30
Speaker 1: Listen to the President again. This is on the funding
13:34
Speaker 1: demand that include Ukrainian aid.
13:38
Speaker 2: Here it is I just.
13:40
Speaker 10: Did a meeting with the G seven, which was one
13:42
Speaker 10: of the issues we discussed to all European leaders. We
13:46
Speaker 10: are prepared to stay with us, stay with Ukraine, and
13:50
Speaker 10: our European friends are as well. Who in the United
13:53
Speaker 10: States are prepared to walk away from that? I tell
13:56
Speaker 10: you I'm not prepared to walk away, and I don't
13:58
Speaker 10: think the American people are there. If Putin takes Ukraine,
14:02
Speaker 10: he won't stop there.
14:04
Speaker 4: It's important to see.
14:05
Speaker 10: The long run here. He's going to keep going. He's
14:08
Speaker 10: made that pretty clear. Putin attacks a NATO ally. If
14:11
Speaker 10: he keeps going and then he attacks the NATO ally
14:14
Speaker 10: where we've committed as a NATO member that we defend
14:18
Speaker 10: every inch of NATO territory, then we'll have something that
14:22
Speaker 10: we don't seek and that we don't have today, American
14:26
Speaker 10: troops fighting Russian troops. American troops fighting Russian troops if
14:31
Speaker 10: he moves into other parts of NATO.
14:33
Speaker 2: So there it is.
14:34
Speaker 1: I'm not the President says ready or willing at this
14:39
Speaker 1: point to walk away. That was one of the other
14:42
Speaker 1: things he said during this press conference. He says he's
14:45
Speaker 1: not at a point where he is quote willing to
14:48
Speaker 1: walk away the present demanding this Ukrainian aid, and he says,
14:53
Speaker 1: I'm not prepared to walk away from Ukraine, so you
14:56
Speaker 1: better give me the money.
14:57
Speaker 2: And if you.
14:58
Speaker 1: Don't, then there is a possibility of American troops fighting
15:02
Speaker 1: Russian troops, in.
15:03
Speaker 2: Other words, literally world War three.
15:07
Speaker 1: Now, this happened at a very interesting press conference, and
15:10
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about this with Putin and all
15:14
Speaker 1: this in a moment, but I want to go to
15:16
Speaker 1: something else. He also lied to the American people when
15:20
Speaker 1: he said that every American should quote take pride that
15:24
Speaker 1: we haven't abled Ukraine's success.
15:27
Speaker 2: Now his definition.
15:29
Speaker 1: Of success in mind are obviously very different. Take a listen.
15:34
Speaker 10: We've all seen the brutality that Putin has inflicted on Ukraine,
15:38
Speaker 10: Invading another country, trying to subjugate his neighbors to his
15:43
Speaker 10: iron rule, Committian atrocities, atrocities against Ukrainian civilians, trying to
15:50
Speaker 10: plunge them into the cold and darkness of winter by
15:53
Speaker 10: bombing their electric grids so they don't have any heat
15:55
Speaker 10: during the winter. We're electricity for that matter, Kidnapping thousands
16:00
Speaker 10: of Ukraine, thousands of Ukrainian children from their parents and families,
16:04
Speaker 10: in keeping them in Russia. Russian forces are committing war crimes.
16:09
Speaker 10: It's as simple as that. It's stunning. Who is prepared
16:14
Speaker 10: to walk away from holding Putin accountable for this behavior?
16:18
Speaker 10: Who among us is really prepared to do that? You know,
16:20
Speaker 10: for the better part of two years, the brave people
16:23
Speaker 10: of Ukraine have denied Russia a victory on the battlefield.
16:29
Speaker 10: They've defeated Vladimir Putin's ambition to dominate Ukraine, and the
16:33
Speaker 10: people of the United States can and should take pride.
16:36
Speaker 10: They should take pride, and we've been able Ukraine's success
16:41
Speaker 10: thanks to the steady supply of weapons and ammunition we
16:44
Speaker 10: provided them together with our partners and our allies.
16:48
Speaker 1: So you should take pride. This is all about your pride.
16:53
Speaker 1: You should be glad, you should be excited, you should
16:58
Speaker 1: be fired up that this is actually happening right now.
17:03
Speaker 1: Americans should take pride that we've enabled Ukraine's success for
17:07
Speaker 1: the better part of two years. Okay, you still have
17:10
Speaker 1: a war happening in Ukraine. It's two years in Ukraine
17:15
Speaker 1: has denied Russia victory on the Battlefi, he says, and
17:17
Speaker 1: I'm glad that we gave them some.
17:19
Speaker 2: Aid and support.
17:19
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of questions that no one's willing
17:22
Speaker 1: to answer right now, and that's this, where's all the
17:25
Speaker 1: money going. We've seen that Zelenski has had a lot
17:30
Speaker 1: of people around him that have been fired after it
17:33
Speaker 1: came out in publications about the massive amount of corruption.
17:38
Speaker 1: My question is how much of the money that we're
17:40
Speaker 1: sending to Ukraine is going into the pockets of the
17:44
Speaker 1: Ukrainian oligarchs. And if you think that Russia is a
17:47
Speaker 1: corrupt country, you've seen nothing yet. It ain't Russia, folks. Okay,
17:51
Speaker 1: I want to be very clear about that. It's not
17:53
Speaker 1: Russia in Ukraine. Ukraine is more corrupt than Russiusia is.
18:01
Speaker 1: And if you think that your tax dollars are truly
18:03
Speaker 1: being spent in Ukraine to fight Russia, you're flat out wrong.
18:07
Speaker 1: There's also a second aspect of this. We don't have
18:10
Speaker 1: the money to fund this war in Ukraine. We don't
18:13
Speaker 1: have it in our budget. We are borrowing the money
18:16
Speaker 1: you and I as a taxpayer, to fight that war
18:19
Speaker 1: and give them everything right now that they need in Ukraine. Now,
18:23
Speaker 1: he said that, look, we should take pride that we've
18:26
Speaker 1: enabled Ukraine's success. I'm not sure it's really success. I
18:30
Speaker 1: don't think Russia has been successful. I'm not really sure
18:33
Speaker 1: you could argue that Ukraine has been successful. What I
18:37
Speaker 1: know is Zelenski and his cohorts have gotten rich off
18:41
Speaker 1: this war. They're family members, their friends, their associates are
18:44
Speaker 1: getting rich. Many of the families, top oligarch families in
18:48
Speaker 1: Ukraine are sitting in Warsaw in five star hotels. And
18:52
Speaker 1: the real people that are being hurt in Ukraine are
18:56
Speaker 1: the actual men and women, the true citizens of the country,
18:59
Speaker 1: not the rich, elitist oligarchs of the nation, but having
19:04
Speaker 1: a president that comes out and says to the American people,
19:08
Speaker 1: you should take pride that we've enabled Ukraine success.
19:11
Speaker 2: That this has not been successful.
19:13
Speaker 1: This is a two year stalemate between two countries, both
19:17
Speaker 1: fill with massive amounts of corruption. I hate Vladimir Putin.
19:20
Speaker 1: I'll say it one hundred times. I hate Vladimir Putin.
19:24
Speaker 1: I think he has spawn of Satan, a horrible, murderous dictator, tyrant,
19:29
Speaker 1: communist socialists.
19:30
Speaker 2: Wrap it all into one. It's Vladimir Putin.
19:34
Speaker 1: But I'm also not stupid enough to think that Ukraine
19:37
Speaker 1: has some amazing, unbelievable government power that is about democracy.
19:42
Speaker 1: They have suspended elections. A lot of people haven't talked
19:45
Speaker 1: about this in Ukraine. That bothers me significantly, the idea
19:51
Speaker 1: that they're not having elections, like, well, if somebody else
19:53
Speaker 1: wants to pay for them, maybe we can have them.
19:55
Speaker 1: But how would we have real elections in a war
19:57
Speaker 1: toward country with so many people that have been displayed. Well,
20:00
Speaker 1: I promise you that's the same line that a dictator
20:02
Speaker 1: to Tyrant Zolenski or any other dictator, and tyrant would use.
20:07
Speaker 1: This logic that they would use is exactly what you
20:09
Speaker 1: just heard that, and that's incredibly frustrating.
20:13
Speaker 2: I'm never going.
20:14
Speaker 1: To be in favor of a foreign policy of any
20:18
Speaker 1: candidate or any president that their foreign policy is if
20:21
Speaker 1: you don't give me the money I want now, I'm
20:23
Speaker 1: willing to send or I'm going to send or I
20:25
Speaker 1: might send your American men and women to war. So
20:28
Speaker 1: you better give me the money now so that they
20:30
Speaker 1: don't have to go off to war. That is a
20:32
Speaker 1: bad and more importantly, a failed foreign policy, full stop.
20:39
Speaker 1: I also don't like that there is zero accountability for
20:45
Speaker 1: the funds that are being spent, with no timeline of like,
20:49
Speaker 1: at what point would we finally say, Okay, no, We're
20:53
Speaker 1: not going to keep.
20:54
Speaker 2: Doing this anymore. He's saying forever and ever. Amen. Well.
21:00
Speaker 1: Well, I would also argue that there are a lot
21:03
Speaker 1: of oligarchs in Ukraine and a lot of oligarks in
21:06
Speaker 1: Russia that would love for this war to continue because
21:09
Speaker 1: they get paid when there's money that's being pumped in
21:14
Speaker 1: the way that the money's being pumped in for this war.
21:17
Speaker 1: There are people that get rich off war. There are
21:19
Speaker 1: conservatives that get rich, there are liberals that get rich.
21:22
Speaker 1: There are people that are agnostic and politics to get rich,
21:25
Speaker 1: but there is money to be made by the billions
21:27
Speaker 1: of dollars in times of war. And right now, what
21:31
Speaker 1: is even more frustrating is this president wants to get
21:34
Speaker 1: more aid to Ukraine than he is to our ally,
21:37
Speaker 1: which is Israel. You also look at the difference in
21:41
Speaker 1: how these wars are being fought. For example, you have
21:44
Speaker 1: the most barbaric people in the world in Hamas and
21:49
Speaker 1: what they did to Israel. And the IDF, by the way,
21:53
Speaker 1: has just put out a statement that they broke through
21:56
Speaker 1: Hamasa's front lines and a Hamas leader is now underground
22:01
Speaker 1: and apparently surrounded by the Israeli defense forces. We're not
22:06
Speaker 1: getting headlines like that out of Ukraine because the people
22:11
Speaker 1: in Ukraine that are in charge of the country, who
22:14
Speaker 1: have suspended their elections, understand that war is actually good
22:18
Speaker 1: for their pocket books. When else is Ukraine going to
22:22
Speaker 1: see billions and billions and billions of dollars literally a
22:25
Speaker 1: month coming in to their country outside of this time
22:31
Speaker 1: of war. They're going to maximize this time because they
22:35
Speaker 1: want the cash.
22:36
Speaker 2: To flow in.
22:38
Speaker 1: I want to move to another issue as well that
22:41
Speaker 1: happened at Biden's press conference, and I'm going to keep
22:43
Speaker 1: you update on what's happening in Israel and Ukraine.
22:45
Speaker 2: I can promise you that.
22:47
Speaker 1: But this other issue also is just another example of
22:51
Speaker 1: the corruption of the Biden family, the Biden crime family,
22:54
Speaker 1: and directly the corruption of this President of the United
22:57
Speaker 1: States of America that clearly financial with new records that
23:01
Speaker 1: have come out from the House Oversight Committee.
23:04
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you about that in a second.
23:06
Speaker 1: But the President was actually asked about his interactions with
23:11
Speaker 1: Hunter's business associates. We now have new documentation for the
23:16
Speaker 1: House Oversight Committee that the President of the United States
23:19
Speaker 1: of America, Joe Biden, was interacting on a regular basis,
23:22
Speaker 1: not with his son, Hunter Biden, but with the associates
23:27
Speaker 1: that worked with Hunter Biden. Clearly they were working on
23:33
Speaker 1: business of the business of the Biden crime family, which
23:36
Speaker 1: was selling access to America. Now, Joe Biden was asked
23:41
Speaker 1: about this in the White House. I want you to
23:42
Speaker 1: hear his response.
23:43
Speaker 2: Listen, done Green and also China. There's a polling by the.
23:47
Speaker 11: Associated Press that shows that almost seventy percent of Americans,
23:51
Speaker 11: including forty percent of Democrats, believe that you acted either
23:55
Speaker 11: illegally or unethically in regards to your family's business interests.
23:59
Speaker 2: Can you explain to.
23:59
Speaker 11: The Americans, it's Americans student this impeachment inquiry, why you
24:04
Speaker 11: interacted with so many of your son and brothers foreign
24:06
Speaker 11: business associates.
24:08
Speaker 10: I'm not going to comment that I did not, and
24:10
Speaker 10: a just a bunch of lies.
24:12
Speaker 11: Interacts with either the laws assiiates.
24:15
Speaker 4: I did not.
24:16
Speaker 2: There's lies, It's just lies. That's what it is. Now.
24:24
Speaker 1: We also now know that Jim Jordan and James Comer
24:28
Speaker 1: have sent a new letter dated December the sixth to
24:32
Speaker 1: Abe Low, that is the attorney representing Hunter Biden. It says,
24:37
Speaker 1: dear miss Loow, on November the eighth, twenty twenty three,
24:40
Speaker 1: we issued subpoenas to your client, Robert Hunter Biden, for
24:44
Speaker 1: a deposition on December the thirteenth of twenty twenty three.
24:48
Speaker 1: We received your letter dated November the twenty eighth and
24:51
Speaker 1: December sixth, concerning the deposition subpoenis. Contrary to the assertions
24:57
Speaker 1: in your letter, there is no quote unquote choice for
25:02
Speaker 1: mister Biden to make the subpoenas compel him to appear
25:05
Speaker 1: for a deposition on December the thirteenth. If mister Biden
25:11
Speaker 1: does not appear for his deposition on December thirteenth, twenty
25:14
Speaker 1: twenty three, the committee will initiate contempt of Congress proceedings.
25:19
Speaker 2: Sincerely, James Comer and Jim Jordan.
25:22
Speaker 1: That was the letter that was sent out literally hours
25:26
Speaker 1: ago from the Commerce Committee. Now, also, something else that
25:31
Speaker 1: is happening, is this Jim Jordan really going on offense
25:38
Speaker 1: with the FBI having a double standard for conservatives compared
25:43
Speaker 1: to liberals.
25:44
Speaker 2: And let me just remind you of this.
25:46
Speaker 1: The FBI drafted a memo targeting traditional Catholics, asking and
25:51
Speaker 1: trying to recruit traditional Catholics to spy on their own churches. Yes,
25:57
Speaker 1: they wanted to build sources within church.
26:00
Speaker 2: They had coordinated the.
26:02
Speaker 1: Memo with multiple field offices to start targeting Catholic churches
26:07
Speaker 1: with basically FBI informant spies. They even interviewed a priest
26:12
Speaker 1: and a choir director. We've now learned the FBI also
26:17
Speaker 1: acted like they didn't actually do this, which is also
26:23
Speaker 1: the best way I can put it, totally shocking and
26:26
Speaker 1: I would even argue disgusting. The other thing that is
26:30
Speaker 1: also shocking here is the fact that we have a
26:35
Speaker 1: president of the United States of America's son who got
26:39
Speaker 1: special treatment from that FBI, the same FBI that was
26:43
Speaker 1: going after Catholics, and the House Oversight committing saying this
26:48
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden must appear for his deposition and if he
26:51
Speaker 1: does not appear, then contempt at Congress proceedings.
26:54
Speaker 2: Will move forward.
26:56
Speaker 1: That is exactly what is supposed to happen here. The
27:00
Speaker 1: Chairman Comber and Jim Jordan threatening to hold him in
27:03
Speaker 1: contempt is the right thing to do. House Oversight Committee
27:08
Speaker 1: Chairman James Comer reacted to President Biden's denial of him
27:13
Speaker 1: having and I played that audio a moment ago of
27:16
Speaker 1: his denial of being involved in the family business dealings
27:18
Speaker 1: at all.
27:19
Speaker 2: And this is what James Comer said, quote.
27:21
Speaker 1: We have produced evidence revealing Joe Biden spoke, dined, took meetings,
27:28
Speaker 1: and had coffee with a son's foreign business associates. House
27:33
Speaker 1: is expected to vote this month to approve the impeachment inquiry,
27:36
Speaker 1: which I talked to you about earlier. And this is
27:39
Speaker 1: exactly why. We also have some new polling that is
27:43
Speaker 1: out there. There is polling by the Associated Press that
27:46
Speaker 1: shows almost seventy percent of Americans, including forty percent of Democrats,
27:55
Speaker 1: believe that Joe Biden acted either quote illegally or unethically
28:02
Speaker 1: in regards to the family business interests. You would think
28:06
Speaker 1: he would be able to explain that to the American people.
28:08
Speaker 2: Yet what you say, there's no truth here, There's no truth.
28:12
Speaker 1: Representative Marjorie Taylor Green said this next week, Hunter Biden
28:16
Speaker 1: is coming to the House Oversight Committee to be questioned
28:19
Speaker 1: in a deposition. We fully plan on having a public
28:22
Speaker 1: hearing to follow, but the deposition is extremely important and
28:25
Speaker 1: the right way to conduct our investigation. As a matter
28:28
Speaker 1: of fact, depositions are so important that the Democrats use
28:32
Speaker 1: them consistently. President Trump's own children were forced to sit
28:35
Speaker 1: for hours and hours and be questioned by Democrats falsely
28:39
Speaker 1: accusing them of ridiculous lies in depositions. Through our investigation,
28:43
Speaker 1: we have uncovered mountains of evidence and have extremely important
28:47
Speaker 1: questions to work through that require this process. We look
28:50
Speaker 1: forward to producing the answers the Americans deserve and exposing
28:53
Speaker 1: the truth about the Biden crime family. Which leads me
28:57
Speaker 1: to what Jim Jordan said about two weeks ago. Jim
29:00
Speaker 1: Jordan was talking about David Weis. Weiss is the one
29:03
Speaker 1: who let the statue of limitations expire for the tax
29:05
Speaker 1: years fourteen and fifteen because it takes him right into
29:09
Speaker 1: the Biden White House years. Listen to what Jim Jordan
29:14
Speaker 1: said talking about and predicting what was going to be
29:17
Speaker 1: happening this.
29:18
Speaker 12: Week, the Hunter's criminal charges play out in calls. The
29:21
Speaker 12: Congressional investigation into his business dealers continues, leading the charge.
29:25
Speaker 4: There is call us from Jim Jordan, who.
29:27
Speaker 12: Joins us now calls it wants the state of play
29:30
Speaker 12: in the Hunt of Biden investigation.
29:34
Speaker 9: We got a handful of more depositions to this Stewart.
29:36
Speaker 9: We want to talk to We want to talk to
29:38
Speaker 9: Hunter Biden. We want to talk to James Biden who
29:40
Speaker 9: did all this business together, and we want to talk
29:42
Speaker 9: to his business partners Eric Swayerman, Bobo Lenski, Rob Walker,
29:46
Speaker 9: and then frankly, we just sent a subpoena two this
29:48
Speaker 9: this Kevin Morris individual. He's the guy who stepped forward
29:51
Speaker 9: and paid Hunter Biden's like two point five million dollars
29:54
Speaker 9: in back taxes. E O just I guess out of
29:56
Speaker 9: the goodness of his heart. So we want to talk
29:58
Speaker 9: to him as well. But the plan is to do
30:00
Speaker 9: those final depositions and then make a decision on we're
30:04
Speaker 9: in an impeachment inquiry, do we move forward with actual
30:07
Speaker 9: articles of impeachment?
30:09
Speaker 2: And I think we will present this to the.
30:10
Speaker 9: Conference and we'll make a decision as a conference if
30:13
Speaker 9: the facts warrant going to actual articles and moving into
30:17
Speaker 9: full impeachment of the president.
30:20
Speaker 12: So they're both moving forward at bit at a slow pace.
30:23
Speaker 12: Investigation of Hunta and the impeachment of the President Biden.
30:27
Speaker 2: It's going forward, but it's slow. Yeah.
30:30
Speaker 9: Well, the idea is to finish up all the depositions
30:33
Speaker 9: and the documents that we So we've got three committees
30:35
Speaker 9: working on You got the ways it means committe where
30:37
Speaker 9: the whistleblowers came forward and told us about how bad
30:40
Speaker 9: the investigation was run, how unusual, how it was slow
30:43
Speaker 9: walked the investigation to Biden. Then you have Chairman Comber's
30:46
Speaker 9: committee who are looking at the suspicious activity reports, the
30:51
Speaker 9: bank records, they subpoenados, they're compiling that information. That's where
30:54
Speaker 9: we learned about the two hundred thousand dollars check, the
30:56
Speaker 9: forty thousand dollars check that initially came from China.
30:59
Speaker 2: They're working on that.
31:00
Speaker 9: And then our committee is actually digging, and we've now
31:02
Speaker 9: the post seven different people who were a part of
31:04
Speaker 9: the Hunter Biden investigation.
31:07
Speaker 2: I think the overall picture Stewart is pretty basic. This
31:11
Speaker 2: is as you know, this is his story as old
31:13
Speaker 2: as the hills. You've got a.
31:14
Speaker 9: Politician who takes certain action that benefits his family financially,
31:18
Speaker 9: and then there's an effort to sweep it under the
31:20
Speaker 9: rug to conceal it. And that's exactly what we saw,
31:22
Speaker 9: particularly with David Weiss, we saw him let the statute
31:26
Speaker 9: limitations expire for the tax years twenty fourteen and twenty
31:29
Speaker 9: fifteen regarding Hunter Biden, because those are the tax years
31:33
Speaker 9: he got all the money from the Ukrainian energy company Barisma,
31:36
Speaker 9: and that if he digs into that, that takes him
31:38
Speaker 9: right to the White House, right to Joe Biden and
31:40
Speaker 9: his involvement in Barisma back back when he was Vice
31:45
Speaker 9: President of the United States.
31:46
Speaker 12: Colse do vot ask because this has been going on
31:49
Speaker 12: for some time.
31:50
Speaker 2: I mean, what else do you need to hear?
31:54
Speaker 10: This?
31:54
Speaker 1: Doj and the fake investigation the Biden crime family to
31:58
Speaker 1: this point, allowing for the statute of limitations to expire
32:02
Speaker 1: on purpose on the most egregious charges having a DOJ
32:06
Speaker 1: that constantly looks the other way, having an FBI that
32:09
Speaker 1: classified the.
32:12
Speaker 2: Laptop is like, oh, no.
32:14
Speaker 1: Big deal to shut it down, saying that it was
32:17
Speaker 1: disinformation so that you wouldn't actually have to look at
32:20
Speaker 1: what was on the laptop, which they knew was real
32:22
Speaker 1: and authentic and they could authenticate it and did authenticate it,
32:24
Speaker 1: and then they misclassified it. Having the entire cover up
32:28
Speaker 1: by the deed State of what the Biden crime family
32:30
Speaker 1: is doing really is telling and really is so telling
32:35
Speaker 1: that she'd tell you everything you need to know about
32:38
Speaker 1: the Biden crime family and exactly what the Biden crime
32:41
Speaker 1: family is all about.
32:43
Speaker 2: I can tell you this.
32:46
Speaker 1: To me, what's about to happen If you can actually
32:50
Speaker 1: get Hunter Biden to show up and look, he may
32:54
Speaker 1: make a calculated decision that if they recommend contempt to Congress,
33:00
Speaker 1: that the DJ will yet again cover for the Biden
33:03
Speaker 1: crime family and not actually go after him, unlike what
33:07
Speaker 1: they did with people that didn't show up with under
33:09
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Remember they went and arrested some of them.
33:13
Speaker 1: There's a good chance they would not do this. So
33:15
Speaker 1: you can only recommend, but I the DJ is going
33:17
Speaker 1: to protect him. They're going to protect him, and I'm
33:19
Speaker 1: sure they're having conversations behind closed doors right now about
33:23
Speaker 1: that exact issue. Oh well, maybe we can just get
33:25
Speaker 1: away with us. Maybe we just don't have to respond.
33:28
Speaker 1: Maybe we can just kick the can down the road.
33:31
Speaker 1: Maybe we don't have to be intellectually honest about what's
33:33
Speaker 1: happening here. Maybe we can just continue to cover it
33:36
Speaker 1: up and just continue to lie on this issue. There's
33:40
Speaker 1: a very high probability of that and the idea that
33:44
Speaker 1: he thinks he can dictate what he can and can't do,
33:47
Speaker 1: or what you know, or tell people what he is
33:49
Speaker 1: or isn't going to do. No other American and including
33:52
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's children.
33:54
Speaker 2: Let's also be very clear about that.
33:56
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's children, Okay, Donald Trump children had to sit
34:02
Speaker 1: for hours and hours and hours of these depositions when
34:08
Speaker 1: they had done nothing wrong. There was no smoking gun
34:12
Speaker 1: for their depositions. We don't have a smoking gun. We
34:15
Speaker 1: have a full blown five alarm fire because of his
34:18
