Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Welcome.
- 0:01Speaker 2: It is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson with you,
- 0:05Speaker 2: and we've got a lot to get you updated on,
- 0:07Speaker 2: including new info on the Biden crime family of money
- 0:10Speaker 2: flowing directly yet again to the President of the United
- 0:13Speaker 2: States of America. Also, Senator Ted Cruz's book Unwoke is
- 0:17Speaker 2: coming out. You're gonna want to get your hands on it.
- 0:19Speaker 2: We're gonna chat about that. And the FBI Director Ray
- 0:23Speaker 2: had new shocking testimony about an open southern border and
- 0:28Speaker 2: what it means when it comes to terrorism. But first, Senator,
- 0:30Speaker 2: let's talk about this new intel. Joe Biden received forty
- 0:35Speaker 2: thousand dollars in what James Comer is calling laundered China
- 0:40Speaker 2: money from the account of his brother James Biden and
- 0:43Speaker 2: his sister in law, Sarah Biden, in the form of
- 0:46Speaker 2: another personal check directly tying the Biden crime family businesses
- 0:52Speaker 2: to the President of the United States of America. I'm
- 0:56Speaker 2: not surprised by this. I'm glad we're starting to see
- 0:59Speaker 2: the money flowing. We all knew it was there, and
- 1:01Speaker 2: now we have proof.
- 1:04Speaker 3: Well, we're about to see the Biden White House defense
- 1:08Speaker 3: shift yet again. Remember the story is shifted repeatedly. At first,
- 1:14Speaker 3: Joe Biden said he'd never talked to his son Hunter
- 1:16Speaker 3: about any of his business deals. Then after that was
- 1:20Speaker 3: proven to be a blatant lie, he said he wasn't
- 1:23Speaker 3: involved in any of the deals. Then after that was
- 1:27Speaker 3: demonstrated to be false, much of the Democrat talking point
- 1:32Speaker 3: shifted to Okay, Hunter as crooked as the day is long,
- 1:36Speaker 3: but there's no direct evidence of Joe's involvement in the corruption.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Now that is proving more and more untenable, as we're
- 1:44Speaker 3: seeing a paper trail of cash flowing to Joe Biden,
- 1:49Speaker 3: and with everything else going on, it's easy to forget
- 1:51Speaker 3: about this story. But at the end of the day,
- 1:54Speaker 3: having a president of the United States whose family had
- 1:57Speaker 3: a family business of making millions of dollars selling favors
- 2:02Speaker 3: from Joe Biden, that remains a serious issue of corruption,
- 2:07Speaker 3: and I think the evidence keeps getting worse.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Yeah, James Comer put together a basically a video that
- 2:15Speaker 2: explained this money trail, and it's important for people to
- 2:19Speaker 2: hear it because as we've had James on the show
- 2:23Speaker 2: for a two part series, he does an excellent job
- 2:26Speaker 2: of checking and information and then connecting the dots. He
- 2:31Speaker 2: put this out to the House Oversight Committee, and I
- 2:33Speaker 2: want people to hear what he had to say.
- 2:35Speaker 4: Remember when Joe Biden told the American people that his
- 2:38Speaker 4: son didn't make any money in China.
- 2:40Speaker 3: My son has not made money in terms of this
- 2:44Speaker 3: thing about what are you talking about China?
- 2:47Speaker 4: Well, not only did he lie about his son Hunter
- 2:49Speaker 4: making money in China, but it also turns out that
- 2:52Speaker 4: forty thousand dollars in laundered China money landed in Joe
- 2:56Speaker 4: Biden's bank account in the form of a personal check,
- 2:59Speaker 4: and the Oversight Committee has it. Here's how Joe Biden
- 3:02Speaker 4: benefited from his family shady deal with CEFC, a Chinese
- 3:07Speaker 4: communist party link company. It all began with a shakedown
- 3:10Speaker 4: in the summer of twenty seventeen, when Hunter Biden sent
- 3:13Speaker 4: a message to his CEFC associate demanding a ten million
- 3:17Speaker 4: dollar capital payment. As Hunter Biden extorted this associate, Hunter
- 3:22Speaker 4: claimed he was sitting with his father and that the
- 3:25Speaker 4: Biden network would turn on his associate if he didn't
- 3:28Speaker 4: pony up the money.
- 3:30Speaker 1: The extortion scheme worked.
- 3:32Speaker 4: Days later, five million dollars flowed in from a Chinese
- 3:35Speaker 4: affiliate of CEFC. Over the following three weeks, Biden family
- 3:40Speaker 4: members made a series of complicated financial transactions to hide
- 3:45Speaker 4: the source of the China money. Here's how that happened. First,
- 3:49Speaker 4: Northern International Capital, a Chinese company associated with CEFC, wired
- 3:54Speaker 4: five million dollars to Hudson West three, a joint venture
- 3:58Speaker 4: established by Hunter byd and a CEFC associate. Then Hudson
- 4:03Speaker 4: West III sent four hundred thousand dollars to an entity
- 4:07Speaker 4: owned and controlled by Hunter Biden. Next, Hunter Biden wired
- 4:12Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to Lion Hall Group,
- 4:15Speaker 4: a company owned by James and Sarah Biden. Sarah Biden
- 4:18Speaker 4: then withdrew fifty thousand dollars in cash from Lion Hall Group.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Later the same day, she deposited it into her and
- 4:25Speaker 4: James Biden's personal checking account. A few days later, Sarah
- 4:30Speaker 4: Biden cut a check to Joe Biden for forty thousand dollars.
- 4:34Speaker 4: The memo line of the check said loan repayment. Like
- 4:38Speaker 4: the payment to Joe from AmeriCorps funds, it's certainly plausible
- 4:42Speaker 4: that this payment were James and Sarah used funds from China,
- 4:46Speaker 4: was indeed a loan payment to Joe. But even if
- 4:50Speaker 4: this forty thousand dollars check was a loan repayment from
- 4:53Speaker 4: James Biden, it still shows how Joe benefited from his
- 4:57Speaker 4: family cashing in on his name with money from China.
- 5:00Speaker 4: No less, without his family peddling his name and his
- 5:04Speaker 4: son threatening a CEFC associate with consequences that he said
- 5:08Speaker 4: Joe Biden knew about, James wouldn't have had the money
- 5:11Speaker 4: to write the forty thousand dollars check to his brother Joe.
- 5:15Speaker 4: It's also worth remembering that Biden family efforts to secure
- 5:18Speaker 4: millions from this Chinese company began when Joe Biden was
- 5:21Speaker 4: still vice president. In taking funds sourced to a CCP
- 5:27Speaker 4: link company that wanted to advance China's interest, Joe Biden
- 5:31Speaker 4: exposed himself to future blackmail and put America's interests behind
- 5:35Speaker 4: his own desire for money. The House Oversight Committee will
- 5:38Speaker 4: continue to follow the money and hold President Biden accountable
- 5:42Speaker 4: for his corruption.
- 5:44Speaker 2: You hear him lay that out, and he does it
- 5:47Speaker 2: with it with such just here are the facts, here
- 5:51Speaker 2: are the dots, and why on earth did the Biden
- 5:54Speaker 2: crime family knowingly and willingly do business with Chinese Communist
- 5:59Speaker 2: Party tied entities is one of the best aspects of
- 6:05Speaker 2: what he just put together there, because no one in
- 6:08Speaker 2: their right mind that was putting America first would open
- 6:12Speaker 2: themselves up to even the possibility of being compromised by
- 6:16Speaker 2: the Communists in China. And yet that's exactly who the
- 6:20Speaker 2: Bidens would seek out to do business with.
- 6:23Speaker 3: Look, every step of that chain of money stinks. He
- 6:27Speaker 3: starts with a five million dollar wire from a Chinese
- 6:31Speaker 3: company to a Hunter Biden China joint venture. Five million
- 6:36Speaker 3: dollars that came on August eighth of twenty seventeen. Now, listen,
- 6:42Speaker 3: do you know anyone who gets five million dollars from
- 6:44Speaker 3: Chinese Compani's wired to them? That's bizarre. Hunter Biden provides
- 6:50Speaker 3: no services. He doesn't have talent. When is the last
- 6:53Speaker 3: time someone says, I got five million dollars, I need
- 6:55Speaker 3: me a crackhead, let me give it to him. No,
- 6:58Speaker 3: the reason the five million dollars was sent. The only
- 7:02Speaker 3: value Hunter has is favors from Daddy. And it's important
- 7:09Speaker 3: to note that this payment came immediately after the whatsapped
- 7:14Speaker 3: threatening text where Hunter said I'm sitting here next to
- 7:17Speaker 3: my father, where it was explicitly tied. That's direct evidence
- 7:21Speaker 3: of Joe Biden's involvement. But from there, so the five
- 7:24Speaker 3: million dollar wire went on August eighth, twenty seventeen. The
- 7:28Speaker 3: next wire, the four hundred thousand dollars wire, went on
- 7:31Speaker 3: August eighth of twenty seventeen. So same day five million
- 7:35Speaker 3: comes in from China, four hundred thousand gets wired to
- 7:39Speaker 3: a Hunter Biden entity, and then from there one hundred
- 7:43Speaker 3: and fifty thousand gets wired to James and Sarah Biden
- 7:47Speaker 3: to an entity they control. What date is that August fourteenth,
- 7:51Speaker 3: So six days later, one hundred and fifty thousand on
- 7:55Speaker 3: August twenty eighth, what does Sarah do? She takes out
- 7:58Speaker 3: fifty thousand dollars in cash. Ben, have you ever withdrawn
- 8:01Speaker 3: fifty thousand dollars in cash? I haven't.
- 8:04Speaker 5: No.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Never in my life have I've withdrawn fifty thousand in.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Cash like I've pulled dollars. You're trying to hide where
- 8:11Speaker 1: that money is going.
- 8:12Speaker 3: I pulled out one thousand dollars before, but fifty grand, like,
- 8:16Speaker 3: give me the cash. And then what does she do?
- 8:18Speaker 3: She takes out fifty grand on August twenty eighth. She
- 8:21Speaker 3: deposited in her personal checking account, and then on September third,
- 8:29Speaker 3: she writes a forty thousand dollars check to Joseph Robinette
- 8:33Speaker 3: Biden Junior, now the President of the United States. Like that,
- 8:38Speaker 3: every step of that stinks, And all of the Biden
- 8:43Speaker 3: White House defenders want you to ignore the money trail
- 8:48Speaker 3: from communist China and the question you ought to ask,
- 8:53Speaker 3: what possibly could Hunter Biden do that was worth five
- 8:58Speaker 3: million dollars And the only answer is provide favors from Daddy,
- 9:04Speaker 3: because he did not have the capacity to provide that
- 9:07Speaker 3: much value to anyone otherwise.
- 9:10Speaker 1: I want to tell you about our friends at Chalk.
- 9:12Speaker 2: If you are a guy and you're getting a little
- 9:14Speaker 2: bit older and you feel like that you have lost
- 9:17Speaker 2: some of your strength and your vitality and weakness is
- 9:21Speaker 2: setting in, complacency setting in.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Maybe you just don't feel like yourself.
- 9:25Speaker 2: You want to go out and be more active, but
- 9:27Speaker 2: you just feel like you are complacent and fatigued.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Well, you're not alone. The problem is men's.
- 9:33Speaker 2: To STOSSTRM levels are off a cliff, historically at an
- 9:37Speaker 2: all time low. Thankfully, the patriots at Chalk are here

- 10:36Speaker 2: Choq dot com. And the other laughable moment of this
- 10:41Speaker 2: story is, as this is breaking, that there's now multiple
- 10:45Speaker 2: checks directly written from the Biden crime family to the
- 10:49Speaker 2: President of the United States of America. Hunter Biden has
- 10:52Speaker 2: now come out whining about the media attention, and he says,
- 10:57Speaker 2: disinformation against his daddy.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I'll let you take it from there.
- 11:03Speaker 3: Well, Hunter Biden wrote an op ed in USA Today
- 11:08Speaker 3: where he said he is unhappy with denigrating media attention
- 11:14Speaker 3: and the investigation into Joe Biden's involvement in his family's business.
- 11:19Speaker 3: And you know, I understand you're unhappy about it. You
- 11:23Speaker 3: ought to be unhappy about it. You ought to be
- 11:25Speaker 3: even more unhappy about the corruption that you were intimately
- 11:29Speaker 3: involved in, that your uncle was intimately involved in, that
- 11:33Speaker 3: that nine or twelve we don't even know how many,
- 11:36Speaker 3: but a bunch of Biden family members that think how
- 11:39Speaker 3: strange this is. Listen, you know you have every member
- 11:44Speaker 3: of your family getting paid thousands or millions of dollars
- 11:47Speaker 3: from Chinese communists, from Russian oligarchs, from Ukrainian oligarchs. Like
- 11:53Speaker 3: it stinks to high heaven. And so I don't doubt
- 11:56Speaker 3: that Hunter is unhappy with the media attention. There is
- 12:00Speaker 3: an easy examp, an easy solution to that, which is,
- 12:03Speaker 3: don't engage in in corrupt bribery schemes with your father.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Yeah, and the fact that they gave him this space
- 12:13Speaker 2: to write this op ed to me was also laughable.
- 12:16Speaker 2: They're like, oh, sure, come on out here. Tell us
- 12:19Speaker 2: how you and your father have been victimized by your
- 12:22Speaker 2: own corruption and the tens of millions of dollars have
- 12:25Speaker 2: gone into your bank accounts.
- 12:29Speaker 3: Look, this is a ton of money. We also have
- 12:31Speaker 3: another story that broke. The New York Times reported quote
- 12:36Speaker 3: President Biden Center received up to eighty two thousand pages
- 12:40Speaker 3: of private emails while serving as Barack Obama's vice president,
- 12:44Speaker 3: The National Archives disclosed late Monday as part of a
- 12:47Speaker 3: lawsuit brought by a conservative organization. It is unclear what
- 12:51Speaker 3: topics are covered in most of the emails, or who
- 12:53Speaker 3: else has looped in on the messages. However, at least
- 12:57Speaker 3: ten missives were sent between May eighteenth and June fifteenth,
- 13:02Speaker 3: twenty sixteen, and c seed first son Hunter Biden, with
- 13:08Speaker 3: one on May twenty sixth, notifying Hunter of a scheduled
- 13:12Speaker 3: phone call the next day between the Vice president that
- 13:15Speaker 3: would be Daddy Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko.
- 13:20Speaker 3: The first son's abandoned laptop shows.
- 13:24Speaker 2: You look at that, and then you add it with
- 13:26Speaker 2: these eighty two thousand pages of Biden emails you and
- 13:30Speaker 2: you think about how much intel we now have about
- 13:34Speaker 2: what they were doing behind the scenes. How can anyone
- 13:37Speaker 2: at this point say that this was not pay to
- 13:41Speaker 2: play straight up buy influence and pedal influence with the
- 13:47Speaker 2: United States government for favors. You're buying favors from the
- 13:51Speaker 2: government with Biden holding significant offices.
- 13:55Speaker 3: And this is an important point Ben nobody had paused
- 14:00Speaker 3: did an alternative theory of what Hunter Biden had that
- 14:05Speaker 3: was valuable enough to be worth tens of millions of dollars.
- 14:09Speaker 3: Hunter Biden doesn't have skills. It's not like he's an inventor.
- 14:14Speaker 3: It's not like he you know, I mean, he is
- 14:19Speaker 3: unfortunately a lawyer with little to no legal experience, with
- 14:24Speaker 3: no experience in oil and gas, no experience in global politics,
- 14:28Speaker 3: no experience in China, no experience in Ukraine, no experience
- 14:31Speaker 3: in Russia, and with serious and persistent substance abuse problems.
- 14:38Speaker 3: There is no other human being on planet Earth that
- 14:41Speaker 3: fits that profile that gets paid even one million dollars,
- 14:48Speaker 3: much less tens and tens of millions of dollars. The
- 14:52Speaker 3: only possible thing Hunter Biden had to sell is favors
- 14:56Speaker 3: from Daddy. And to be clear, his text message made
- 15:01Speaker 3: very clear that's what he was selling. If you don't
- 15:04Speaker 3: pay me the money, my father is going to exact
- 15:08Speaker 3: retribution on you.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Let's talk about these eighty two thousand pages of Biden emails.
- 15:14Speaker 2: And President Biden senter received up to eighty two thousand
- 15:16Speaker 2: pages worth of private emails was serving as Barack Obama's
- 15:19Speaker 2: vice president. The na's archives that disclosed us earlier this
- 15:22Speaker 2: week as part of this lawsuit that.
- 15:24Speaker 1: You mentioned a moment ago.
- 15:25Speaker 2: But there are multiple aliases now that this president used.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Why would a president have this many burner email accounts
- 15:36Speaker 2: and yet send such important information to his son, to
- 15:40Speaker 2: his brother, to family members from all of these email addresses.
- 15:45Speaker 2: It doesn't make sense unless you're trying to give out
- 15:47Speaker 2: information to them hoping that no one would have ever
- 15:50Speaker 2: been able to track this down or know you even
- 15:52Speaker 2: had these email accounts, so that they wouldn't even know
- 15:54Speaker 2: what to ask for.
- 15:56Speaker 3: Look, it is very weird that there are to pull
- 16:00Speaker 3: email addresses that Joe Biden used that were fake, that
- 16:05Speaker 3: were burner email addresses, and no one has had a
- 16:08Speaker 3: good explanation for why you have so many email addresses. So,
- 16:13Speaker 3: for example, we've mentioned Robinware four five six at gmail
- 16:18Speaker 3: dot com. We've mentioned Jrbware at gmail dot com, and
- 16:22Speaker 3: we've mentioned Robert dot l dot Peters at PCI gov.
- 16:27Speaker 3: But in addition to that, there's been reporting that Joe
- 16:30Speaker 3: Biden also used an email address axa uk s at
- 16:35Speaker 3: at T dot BlackBerry dot net and sixty seven Stingray
- 16:41Speaker 3: at GMx dot com. And beyond that that, I have
- 16:47Speaker 3: also heard reports, this is not confirmed, that he may
- 16:51Speaker 3: have used champ four at at T dot BlackBerry dot net.
- 16:58Speaker 3: Now let's talk about the OX one. That is an
- 17:02Speaker 3: unusual an unusual phrase, Well, what is it? What is ox?
- 17:09Speaker 3: Ox is the mascot of Archmere Academy, which is the
- 17:15Speaker 3: private Roman Catholic college preparatory school in Delaware that Joe
- 17:20Speaker 3: Biden attended and Hunter Biden attended, and the OX alias
- 17:25Speaker 3: got an email on May tenth, twenty eleven, from his niece,
- 17:27Speaker 3: Cassie Owens, who was serving as a special assistance for
- 17:31Speaker 3: the US China Strategic and Economic Dialogue at the Treasury Department.
- 17:36Speaker 3: Just days before she left Treasury, Owens emailed, quote Uncle
- 17:41Speaker 3: Joe at aux at BlackBerry dot net. And here's the
- 17:45Speaker 3: text of the email, quote, Uncle Joe just got home
- 17:49Speaker 3: from work and couldn't wait to send you an email.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Today was truly a memorable day for me. I kept
- 17:54Speaker 3: thinking about Mom. Mom. Can you imagine her seeing us
- 17:58Speaker 3: huddled up backstage together? She would have loved it. It
- 18:02Speaker 3: chokes me up. I have so much to learn. Sitting
- 18:05Speaker 3: back there with you was very, very humbly. I was
- 18:08Speaker 3: just blown away. You always make time to talk to
- 18:10Speaker 3: me always, but today was really incredible. I still can't
- 18:14Speaker 3: believe you took the time to discuss the issues with you.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Joe Biden then forwarded that email to Hunter Biden, to
- 18:21Speaker 3: Bo Biden, and to Valerie Biden Owens, who's Joe Biden's sister. Now, look,
- 18:28Speaker 3: it is weird, Ben for the sitting vice president of
- 18:33Speaker 3: the United States to have what are we up to?
- 18:36Speaker 3: Five six fake and bogus email addresses? Why do you
- 18:41Speaker 3: have fake and bogus email addresses? Why do you have
- 18:44Speaker 3: but burner phones?
- 18:46Speaker 5: Well?
- 18:46Speaker 2: I gotta ask you this question because I saw on
- 18:48Speaker 2: TV today there was some commentator that said, well, look,
- 18:52Speaker 2: you don't understand when you're a government official, if you're
- 18:55Speaker 2: an elected official, you have many have at least a
- 18:59Speaker 2: half dozen email accounts.
- 19:01Speaker 5: I don't know anyone in formal operating procedure. Nope, that
- 19:05Speaker 5: that is a very weird thing. I literally do not
- 19:10Speaker 5: know anyone in politics or government who has anything like that.
- 19:13Speaker 5: You know, one of the addresses he used, and this
- 19:16Speaker 5: is report of the New York Post, Joe Biden wrote
- 19:19Speaker 5: to his son Hunter and others close to him using
- 19:21Speaker 5: the pseudonym Peter Henderson, who is Peter Henderson, a fictional
- 19:26Speaker 5: Soviet Union era spy and several Tom Clancy novels who
- 19:31Speaker 5: infiltrated the US government. Those messages are contained on Hunter's
- 19:35Speaker 5: laptop and show the then Vice president using that name
- 19:43Speaker 5: in October twenty sixteenth, while forwarding a YouTube video to
- 19:48Speaker 5: his son Hunter, his brother Jim, his daughter in La Halle,
- 19:51Speaker 5: as well as his sister and political strategist Valerie Biden owens,
- 19:57Speaker 5: Now that is that's weird. Look, most people in government,
- 20:02Speaker 5: you'll have an official email, and you'll typically have a
- 20:07Speaker 5: personal email, and sometimes, if you're around long enough, maybe
- 20:11Speaker 5: you'll replace one personal email with a second personal email.
- 20:14Speaker 5: That much is not weird. But Joe Biden appears to
- 20:19Speaker 5: have been using four or five six emails, all at
- 20:23Speaker 5: the same time, and all of them on the face
- 20:28Speaker 5: of it are designed to conceal what he was communicating
- 20:32Speaker 5: and what he was saying.
- 20:34Speaker 2: I want to move to another issue center, and it's
- 20:36Speaker 2: one that deals with energy independence. It also deals with
- 20:40Speaker 2: what we're witnessing now in Iran. The amount of money
- 20:43Speaker 2: that Iran is making right now from oil is upwards
- 20:49Speaker 2: that I've been seeing some numbers that are billion dollars
- 20:52Speaker 2: a day is what they're selling. These numbers are staggering.
- 20:58Speaker 2: There are many that are screaming right now and they're saying, hey,
- 21:01Speaker 2: this shouldn't be happening. There are sanctions that should just
- 21:05Speaker 2: be enforced, not needing to pass new sanctions to stop
- 21:08Speaker 2: this country this sponsoring terrorism, especially against Israel with Hamas Hezbla,
- 21:14Speaker 2: they've helped ISIS and al Qaida. They are openly saying
- 21:18Speaker 2: they want death to America and death to Israel and
- 21:21Speaker 2: to wipe us off the face of the earth. And
- 21:23Speaker 2: yet we're not enforcing these this all at the same
- 21:26Speaker 2: time while we are hurting this country from a lack
- 21:30Speaker 2: of energy independence, which makes them richer. When we stop
- 21:33Speaker 2: doing things here and we go into this green alternative energy,
- 21:37Speaker 2: it's just making them richer, which means they can sponsor
- 21:40Speaker 2: more terrorist activities around the world, and it's something that
- 21:44Speaker 2: you've really dived into in this book that comes out
- 21:48Speaker 2: on Tuesday that people need to get their hands on.
- 21:51Speaker 2: Your new book, Unwoke, is going to be out on
- 21:53Speaker 2: Tuesday next week. You can pre order it now. But
- 21:56Speaker 2: this is something you've been talking about, the Democrat's obsession
- 21:59Speaker 2: with green alternive energy and how it's actually helping the
- 22:03Speaker 2: most dangerous people in terrists in the world by having
- 22:07Speaker 2: this policy.
- 22:08Speaker 3: Well, so, Iran right now is selling two million barrels
- 22:12Speaker 3: of oil a day, so they're not making billions per
- 22:16Speaker 3: day right now. Today, the price of a barrel of
- 22:19Speaker 3: oil is about eighty two dollars a barrel. That means
- 22:22Speaker 3: Iran is making about one hundred and sixty million dollars
- 22:26Speaker 3: a day from selling oil, and the bulk of that
- 22:28Speaker 3: they're selling to communist China. We assume China is actually
- 22:32Speaker 3: paying less than that. So let's say they're making one
- 22:35Speaker 3: hundred and forty to one hundred and fifty million dollars
- 22:37Speaker 3: a day, although we don't know what price China is
- 22:40Speaker 3: paying them two million barrels a day. What that is
- 22:45Speaker 3: produced for the Ayatola over the last three years is
- 22:49Speaker 3: about eighty billion dollars. That is funding Iran, which is
- 22:54Speaker 3: the world's late largest state sponsor of terrorism. It is
- 22:58Speaker 3: funding Hamas. It is fun the death squads that are
- 23:01Speaker 3: murdering Israelis and murdering Americans. It is funding the rockets
- 23:04Speaker 3: that are raining down from the sky and murdering Israelis.
- 23:08Speaker 3: It is funding the drones that Iran is providing to
- 23:12Speaker 3: Russia that Russia is using to attack and kill Ukrainian soldiers.
- 23:16Speaker 3: So while Biden is giving billions to Ukraine, he's also
- 23:19Speaker 3: giving billions to Iran and funding both sides of the war.
- 23:23Speaker 3: Now that makes no sense at all, but the point
- 23:28Speaker 3: you made, and this is something that I emphasize in
- 23:33Speaker 3: this new book. The new book, as you said, is
- 23:36Speaker 3: called Unwoke, How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America. And
- 23:42Speaker 3: the book walks through all of the institutions in our
- 23:45Speaker 3: nation that have been seized by the radical left, and
- 23:47Speaker 3: it lays out how they were seized, why it happens,
- 23:50Speaker 3: It tells stories, but it also lays out a strategy
- 23:54Speaker 3: to defeat them. And the final chapter is on China,
- 23:58Speaker 3: and it describes how China is a central nexus that
- 24:01Speaker 3: links them all and one of the points that I
- 24:03Speaker 3: make in the book, and this is a point that
- 24:05Speaker 3: is rarely understood, and it has to do with science
- 24:08Speaker 3: and the Green New Deal, which is right now today.
- 24:12Speaker 3: The United States is the world's leader in oil production
- 24:14Speaker 3: and natural gas production. America produces roughly twenty percent of
- 24:19Speaker 3: all the oil and gas produced worldwide, and we are
- 24:22Speaker 3: a net energy exporter. We produce more than we consume,
- 24:26Speaker 3: so that is incredibly valuable to have energy independence. What
- 24:31Speaker 3: do the Democrats want us to do? They want to
- 24:33Speaker 3: shift our energy usage entirely to energy produced by wind
- 24:38Speaker 3: and solar. And who controls wind and solar and the
- 24:42Speaker 3: answer to that is communist China. So here are some
- 24:45Speaker 3: of the stats. China controls refining capacity for seventy three
- 24:50Speaker 3: percent of the world's cobalt, for forty percent of the copper,
- 24:56Speaker 3: for fifty nine percent of the lithium, for sixty eight
- 25:00Speaker 3: percent of the nickel, and for eighty three percent of
- 25:04Speaker 3: rare earth minerals. And every one of those is necessary
- 25:09Speaker 3: for wind and solar power. And when it comes to
- 25:12Speaker 3: finished products that the Democrats want to produce all of
- 25:16Speaker 3: our domestic energy, China is responsible for eighty percent of
- 25:22Speaker 3: global solar panels manufacturing for seventy percent of global wind
- 25:28Speaker 3: turbine manufacturing and seventy seven percent of global lithium ion
- 25:35Speaker 3: battery manufacturing. So every time you hear a Democrat, every
- 25:39Speaker 3: time you hear the corporate media say we must move
- 25:43Speaker 3: from oil and gas to wind and solar, understand what
- 25:45Speaker 3: they're saying. We need to shift our entire economy from
- 25:49Speaker 3: an energy source that America controls and that we are
- 25:53Speaker 3: dominant globally in to an energy source that China controls
- 25:58Speaker 3: and that they are dominant globally, and we should give
- 26:01Speaker 3: communist China the power at any moment they want to
- 26:05Speaker 3: cripple our economy and shut down our ability to access energy.
- 26:10Speaker 3: That makes no sense. And I got to say in
- 26:13Speaker 3: the national energy debates, we have very very few people
- 26:17Speaker 3: are making what I think is this very important point.
- 26:21Speaker 1: When you were.
- 26:21Speaker 2: Writing this book, and I encourage you to go ahead
- 26:24Speaker 2: and pre order it now it comes on Tuesday, you
- 26:27Speaker 2: wanted to look at these issues and bring them to light. Obviously,
- 26:30Speaker 2: as we're going into this very important election cycle it's
- 26:34Speaker 2: the presidential elections now, because this is really about the
- 26:37Speaker 2: future of this country.
- 26:39Speaker 3: Well, it is look our country is in crisis. I
- 26:41Speaker 3: wrote this book because lots of people are saying, what
- 26:44Speaker 3: the hell happened? How did we wake up and find
- 26:47Speaker 3: every major institution. Look, you look at our universities and
- 26:51Speaker 3: you see these rabid anti Semitic protests, anti Israel protests,
- 26:55Speaker 3: And what's happened is the viciously left with Marxist forces
- 27:02Speaker 3: have taken over many of our universities. You look at
- 27:05Speaker 3: K through twelve education, at the garbage being taught to
- 27:08Speaker 3: our kids, critical race theory and radical transgender theory. You
- 27:13Speaker 3: look at how journalism has been broken. You look at
- 27:16Speaker 3: how government has been broken. You look at big tech,
- 27:18Speaker 3: you look at big business, you look at entertainment movies.
- 27:21Speaker 3: This book, every one of the chapters in this book
- 27:23Speaker 3: focuses on a different institution. The radical left has taken over,
- 27:29Speaker 3: and I explain how it happened. And look. One of
- 27:31Speaker 3: the things that I try to do in this book,
- 27:32Speaker 3: this is not an academic book. This is not an
- 27:35Speaker 3: abstract treatise. This book is designed to be fun, designed
- 27:39Speaker 3: to be readable, designed to tell stories and give you
- 27:43Speaker 3: information that you useful. Look the stats I just laid
- 27:47Speaker 3: out on the critical minerals and rare earth minerals that
- 27:51Speaker 3: are needed for wind and solar you haven't heard those
- 27:54Speaker 3: anywhere else. That's designed to give you the tools. The
- 28:00Speaker 3: book has the same purpose as the podcast. The reason
- 28:03Speaker 3: you and I put so much time into this podcast
- 28:06Speaker 3: is I want to equip our listeners. I believe our
- 28:09Speaker 3: listeners are the patriots who are going to save America.
- 28:12Speaker 3: And I want to equip you with the news, with
- 28:14Speaker 3: the information, with the facts, with the data, with the evidence,
- 28:17Speaker 3: with the arguments to know what's going on to fight
- 28:22Speaker 3: to save the country. And so that's what this book
- 28:24Speaker 3: is all about. It is getting you prepared, but also,
- 28:29Speaker 3: you know, giving you something to read that's fun and interesting.
- 28:31Speaker 3: And by the way, the book I think makes you
- 28:34Speaker 3: know we're heading into Christmas. It makes a great Christmas gift,
- 28:36Speaker 3: which is you got to get one for yourself, and
- 28:39Speaker 3: get one for your mom, get one for your son,
- 28:41Speaker 3: get one for your next door neighbor. Because the entire
- 28:44Speaker 3: purpose of this book is to get as many people
- 28:46Speaker 3: as possible to read it and to hear and understand
- 28:50Speaker 3: what's happening in our country, because that's the only way
- 28:53Speaker 3: we're going to turn it around and bring our country back.
- 28:57Speaker 2: No doubt about it, and it's going to be just
- 28:59Speaker 2: one aspect this book that we're going to start highlighting
- 29:02Speaker 2: so that you guys know what's in there, but makes
- 29:04Speaker 2: you grab a copy pre order it now wherever you
- 29:06Speaker 2: buy your books. Patriot Mobile for ten years has been
- 29:10Speaker 2: America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, and when I say
- 29:14Speaker 2: only trust me, they are literally the only one. The
- 29:18Speaker 2: team at patriots at Mobile are incredible because they are
- 29:21Speaker 2: an American based company with an American based call center
- 29:24Speaker 2: that helps proud Americans just like you that are conservatives
- 29:28Speaker 2: and Christian know that when they pay their bill every month,
- 29:31Speaker 2: you're actually making a difference and standing up for what
- 29:34Speaker 2: you believe in. So stop sending your money to woke
- 29:38Speaker 2: companies that are fighting against your values.
- 29:39Speaker 1: You may not realize that the.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Big Mobile they have been giving millions to liberal democrats
- 29:45Speaker 2: and to places like Planned Parenthood. Well, Patriot Mobile has
- 29:50Speaker 2: decided to do something else, and I love this about
- 29:53Speaker 2: them as a company. For every vertical listener that switches
- 29:56Speaker 2: your soeap phone provider to Patriot Mobile, they are going
- 29:59Speaker 2: to make it an initial donation to a organization that
- 30:03Speaker 2: helps protect the lives of unborn children.
- 30:07Speaker 1: It is pretty awesome.
- 30:08Speaker 2: And then every month when you pay your bill, they
- 30:11Speaker 2: take a portion of your bill at no extra cost
- 30:13Speaker 2: to you, and they give it back to hardcore conservative
- 30:16Speaker 2: Christian organizations. They stand up for freedom of speech, religious freedom,
- 30:20Speaker 2: the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, as well as
- 30:22Speaker 2: our military, our veterans and first responder heroes. So you're
- 30:26Speaker 2: going to have a bill every month for a cell phone,
- 30:28Speaker 2: why not put it with a company that fights for
- 30:30Speaker 2: what you believe in. One hundred percent US based customer
- 30:33Speaker 2: service team is there to help make switching easy. You
- 30:37Speaker 2: can keep your same cell phone number you have now,

- 30:57Speaker 2: I want to ask you about the FBI director and
- 31:00Speaker 2: his testimony that he delivered. It is some shocking testimony.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Here is part of what he had to say before Congress.
- 31:09Speaker 6: But as I said a few moments ago, on top
- 31:12Speaker 6: of the homegrown violent extremists and domestic violent extremist threat.
- 31:16Speaker 6: We also cannot and do not discount the possibility that
- 31:20Speaker 6: HAMAS or another foreign terrorist organization may exploit the current
- 31:25Speaker 6: conflict to conduct attacks here on our own soil.
- 31:30Speaker 2: I mean, sinat you hear Christopher Ray saying this. It's
- 31:34Speaker 2: something that unfortunately we've talked about so much. You've got
- 31:37Speaker 2: an open border, You've got these types of people that
- 31:40Speaker 2: get into this country, and the threats are real.
- 31:43Speaker 3: Look, the threats are incredibly real. I've said multiple times,
- 31:47Speaker 3: I think the risks, the likelihood of a major terrorist
- 31:52Speaker 3: attack on US soil is higher today than it has
- 31:57Speaker 3: been any point since September eleventh. And you know, as
- 32:01Speaker 3: I hear Chris Ray saying that, listen, As you know
- 32:04Speaker 3: I know Chris Ray quite well. For years, he has
- 32:07Speaker 3: been annoyingly and counterfactually and bizarrely saying the greatest threat
- 32:12Speaker 3: we have is from homegrown terrorists, and they're from white supremacists.
- 32:17Speaker 3: They're from Nazis and clansmen. And listen, Nazis and klansmen
- 32:20Speaker 3: are idiots, They're bigoted, morons, they're bad people. No dispute there.
- 32:26Speaker 3: But the last I check, we don't have this rising
- 32:29Speaker 3: wave of clansmen look like they're not Nazis that are
- 32:34Speaker 3: suddenly attacking America. And frankly, the FBI focusing on that
- 32:39Speaker 3: over and over again, it fit into the political narrative
- 32:42Speaker 3: that left wanted, and it utterly discarded global jihadists who
- 32:47Speaker 3: have pledged to murder as many Americans as they have
- 32:50Speaker 3: they can, and who we're actively trying to do so.
- 32:53Speaker 3: And and so my reaction the fact that Chris Ray
- 32:57Speaker 3: said there's a real risk right now that Hamas terrorists
- 32:59Speaker 3: may quote conduct attacks here on our own soil, my
- 33:04Speaker 3: reaction is, holy crap, What is he know now that
- 33:07Speaker 3: has suddenly forced him to say that publicly that he's like, oh, oh,
- 33:11Speaker 3: this might happen really soon. And I at least want
- 33:14Speaker 3: something on the record so that they can't claim I
- 33:16Speaker 3: was blindsided by it. It's obvious our southern border is
- 33:20Speaker 3: wide open, there's a major risk of terrorists coming across.
- 33:24Speaker 3: But the fact that Chris Ray said that right now
- 33:28Speaker 3: worries me enormously. I don't know any classified information that
- 33:32Speaker 3: he might have that says that they know of Hamas
- 33:35Speaker 3: terrorists in the United States, but the fact that he's
- 33:38Speaker 3: saying that, I think.
- 33:39Speaker 1: Is very worrying.
- 33:41Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, and it's obviously an issue that this
- 33:45Speaker 2: administration refused to deal with with an open border and
- 33:48Speaker 2: terrorists coming across the border as well.
- 33:50Speaker 1: Don't forget we did a show Monday, Wednesday and Fridays.
- 33:52Speaker 2: We also have a recap of the weekend on Saturdays
- 33:55Speaker 2: of the week that we just had, so you can
