HUNTER BIDEN corruption could be the REAL REASON WHY JOE REFUSES TO STAND UP TO PUTIN! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Tens of thousands are rallying across Europe and protest of
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Russia's invasion. Why are we not seeing more of this
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: in this country. I'm going to explain why coming up
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: in just a moment, but before we get into the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: latest breaking news coming out of the Ukraine, in Moscow
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: and even the UK with the uk Brexit minister is
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: now calling for the Conservative government to quote reconsider their
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: fracking ban. Development they say is now about national security,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: not about access to affordable energy for Britains. It's a
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: national security issue. Why aren't we looking at the same
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: way in this country. We're going to deal with that.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: But there's another story that involves Hunter Biden, and it
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: is a story that I want to bring attention to.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Computer repairman, the guy who alerted the FBI to Hunter
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Biden's laptop is now facing bankruptcy. We are being told.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: The computer repairman at the center of the Hunter Biden
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Latop Saga, is ready to tell his side of the
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: story in a new interview with The New York Post.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: John Paul mac Isaac, who in twenty twenty alerted the
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: FBI of incriminating emails, text messages, photos and financial documents
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: on Biden's infamous laptop before turning it over to Rudy
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Giliani because our government can't be trusted with this information.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Revealed that he's since lost his store and now faces bankruptcy.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: He said, quote, I was getting a lot of death threats.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I had to have a Wilmington trooper parked in front
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: of my shop at all times. Mac Isaac continued. There
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: were multiple situations where people came in and you could
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: tell they were not there to have a computer fixed.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: And if there were not other people in the shop,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know what would have happened. I was having vegetables, eggs,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: dog poop thrown at the shop every morning. The former
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: owner of the Mac shop in Wilmington, Delaware, says that
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: he's endured harassment also from the IRS and harassment from
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: other government agencies, citing the difficulties he's faced while attempting
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: to file for unemployment. Even last December. I would open
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: up a case, wouldn't hear anything, then open another case,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: then open another case, and then I was told to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: stop opening up cases, and they would keep closing these cases.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: He said. As a result, mac Isaac faces bankruptcy, adding
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: that since closing his shop. He's been forced to work
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: several odd jobs. Bankruptcy looks like my option, he said.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: A buddy of mine doesn't does estate cleanouts manual labor.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I helped to neighbor redo their porch. I'm trying to
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: do more with woodworking. Despite his hardships, mac Isaac has
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: no regrets on ending up at the center of such
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: a controversial story, saying, if I had the choice to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: do it again, I would absolutely do it again. I
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: was raised since one of eleven to believe if you
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: see something, you say something. Now reality of what is happening,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: this man sucks. Hunter Biden's laptop repairman has been harassed,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: which is exactly what I would expect from the left.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: He is, as I said, nearly bankrupt. He sat down
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: for this interview, as I mentioned with The New York Post.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Here is part of what he had to say in
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: his story to the Post and his own words, the
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: first time he's ever been really done a sit down
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: interview like this. My name is John Paul mac Isaac.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: And when I'm asked if there's anything that I would
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: have handled differently about the Hunter Biden laptop, knowing now
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: how much I've gained to lose, I would have not
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: cared nearly as much about my personal safety, and I
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: would have tried to bring things to people's attention a
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: lot sooner and a lot louder. In my community. Initially,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I was being labeled a stooge for the Russians. Lately,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: since the invasion of Ukraine, I've been getting that label renewed,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: you know, a fascist Russian stooge and putin thanks me
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: for my service. And that's by people that I know
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and people I used to call friends. I think it's
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: very odd that, after all everything had gone down, that
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I should get a fifty seven dollars bill from the IRS.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I brought it to the attention of an accountant friend
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: of mine, and he informed me that the IRS never
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: goes back that far unless they're looking for something, and
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that he suspects that this was a way of them
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: letting me know that I was under a magnifying glass,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: under a magnifying glass a fifty seven dollar bill. If
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: that's not a shot across the bow from the federal
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: government to hey, we'll ruin your life because of what
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: you did. I don't know what is this. Delaware computer
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: repair shop owner All he did was alert the FBI
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: to that laptop, and when the FBI I didn't want
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to deal with it, he gave it to Rudy Giuliani.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Now the guys lost his career getting death threats. I
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: had to have at Wilmington trooper parked in front of
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: my shop at all times, all because he gave up
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: this laptop. And then you go back and all of
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a sudden, this guy, he's forty five years old, saying
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: his life has been completely updated it after the laptop
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: contents became public in a series of reports by the
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: New York Posts in October twenty twenty. Now you gotta
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: understand what this guy saw him, what he had on there.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: He saw incriminating information. Troves of international emails that clearly
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: showed corruption by the Biden family, text messages, photos, financial
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: documents between Hunter Biden and his family and business associates
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: all over the world. The file showed a laundry list
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: of shady business deals around the world, with Hunter Biden
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: looking to cash in on his family's connections while his
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: father was the vice president, while his father was running
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: for president. So now this dude has had to shut
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: down his shop and flee the state. He spent almost
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: a year hold up with family in Colorado and spent
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: time in woodworking school. He applied for the unemployment. As
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, he ran into constant complications with quote
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: government officials. There you go. This dude had a little
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: store called the Mac Shop, the Mac Shop, and what
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: did the government due to him. I'd open up a case,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: wouldn't hear anything, open up another case, then open another case,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: and then I was told to stop opening up cases,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: and they would keep closing these cases. Hey bills piled up.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Mac dipped into his four one K, but the checks
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: never came. In December twenty twenty one, the computer Man
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: sent a pointed letter to Delaware senter Chris Coons. I
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: would hate to think that I was singled out in
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: a politically motivated attack. If a state agency was weaponized
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: to punish a see political enemy, the country has a
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: right to know, he warned the Democratic colleague of Joe Biden.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: The unemployment cash came swiftly after that, though mac Isaac
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: insists he still ended up getting short changed by several
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars, and then he received the threat from the FEDS.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I got an invoice on September six, twenty twenty one,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: for a tax return in two thousand and sixteen twenty
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: twenty one, twenty sixteen. I took it to an accountant
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: friend of mine, who said they don't go back that
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: far unless they're looking for something. He paid the fifty
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: seven dollars and seventy five cents promptly. We have all
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: seen how weaponized the IRS has become over the last decade,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: so I wasn't about to pick a fight, he said.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I think all of this looks rather fishy. As he
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: put it, I have been punished for my actions on
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: so many levels, boat to hurt me personally and to
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: set an example for anyone else that might try to
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: blow the wrong whistle. Things got worse when mac Isaac
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: sued Twitter over their decision to censor his Hunter Biden
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: revelations in December of twenty twenty. After the post stories broke,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook moved to suppress the information. The suit
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: was dismissed by afforded judge with prejice. Six months later,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: he was ordered to pay the tech giant's legal bills,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: a figure he said was roughly one hundred and seventy
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: five thousand dollars. Bankruptcy looks like my only option, adding
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: that only after losing his business and now mostly he
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: is just sustaining himself with odd jobs. Mac Isaac said
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: even after social media began allowing the Hunter Biden stories
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: to circulate, that he remained squashed by various platforms. He
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: accused YouTube of shadow banning his content by allowing it
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: to remain on the site but removing it from their
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: normal algorithms, which culminated in a thirty day suspension in September,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: which he successfully appealed, but the damage had already been done.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: He's also written a book about his experience with a laptop,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: but I struggle to find a publisher willing to partner
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: with him because what it's about. Despite all of this,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: mac said he has no regrets. If I had the
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: choice to do it again, I would absolutely do it again.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: He said. I was raised since nine to eleven to
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: believe if you see something, to say something when you
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: get a bill from the IRS for fifty bucks from
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: O six, like come on, really, when you can't even
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: get your unemployment benefits and you have to write a
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: US senator and then all of a sudden they start
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: popping again really, which goes back to a bigger part
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: of this story. Sean Hannity brought this up the other night.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I'm going to play it for you, and he said,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: why is Biden making Putin rich with oil? And he
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: asked a serious question, is this a favor for Hunter Biden?
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: I am asking every American ally to also boycott all
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: imports and exports as it relates to Russian energy of
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: any kind. I'm asking oil producing nations to follow my
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: lead and produce at record setting levels. The problem is
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Joe won't say that tomorrow night. Why won't Joe say it?
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Because Team Biden is more concerned about their crazy, insane
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: climate change, new green deals, socialism, the cult of climate change,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: instead of stopping Putin lowering prices that are impacting the
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: American people, working families very hard. But if Biden and
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: the far left extremists that they really believe we need
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to reduce our dependence on far and oil, then why
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: did Joey lift sanctions on nord Stream too the second
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: he got into office? Maybe a favorite for Hunter, I
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: don't know. And why did he give Putin even more leverage?
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Why was he helping Putin and Russia get rich again,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: just like Germany and all these West European countries so
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: relying on Plutin for the lifeblood of their economy. Now,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: this is the one sanction that would be the single
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: most effective, and it's the one they're willing the least
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to do. Ask yourself why it was reaction. I love that.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Ask yourself, why why is Biden making Putin rich with oil?
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Is it a favor for Hunter Biden? And what the
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: oligarchs and Hunter Biden, everybody that he was involved with
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: in Russia may have on him. One thing you have
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: to understand about Ukraine Russia is what got us here,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: and I'm talking about personally. We know that Hunter Biden
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: was doing business with Russian oligarchs. We know that from
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: his laptop, We know that from his emails. We know
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: that some of the people he's involved in the Russia
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: have gotten in serious trouble internationally with crimes that they
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: have committed and with investor stigations into them. We know
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: that there's direct lines to Vidamin Puttin. We know that
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: there is blackmail that Russia has on Hunter Biden, which
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: is exactly why you just heard Handy bring up that question,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: right like, what do they have on him and why
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: is he helping Putin get rich off oil right now?
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: But then there was another aspect of this, and we
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: really need to understand the quid pro quo that was happening.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: You know, Joe Biden was on camera back and I
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: think it was twenty nineteen now, bragging about his quid
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: pro quo deal with Ukraine. He was bragging about the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: fact that he was able to hold money from Ukraine,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: American loans to Ukraine, American support to Ukraine, and he
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: was able to do it because he was in charge
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: of Ukraine policy. Now, he was sitting there on the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Council Foreign Relations on this panel, and we all know
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: that the reason why he wanted the prosecutor fired that
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: he ended up getting fired by holding American dollars from
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: is because that prosecutor was investigating Barisma. We know that
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Barismo is the board that Hunter Biden said on him.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: We know that they were paying on goodly amounts of
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: money to him for no expertise in the old gas
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: business at all. They were buying access to Hunter Biden,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: and they were buying access to Hunter Biden's uncle as well.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: The Biden crime family is how I describe it. We
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: know that this present hated Zelenski from back then because
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Zelenski was the one that was quote trying to clean
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: things up, and that meant that it cut off the
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: gravy train for his son, which meant money to Joe Biden.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden's the big guy in the crime family. Joe
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Biden gets a piece of all the action. It's very
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: clear from the emails from that laptop that he is
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the big guy. Without Joe Biden, the entire crime family
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: universe doesn't exist, right. I mean, Hunter Biden's homeless if
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: it isn't for Joe Biden's crime family. Hunter Biden's brother
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: is probably homeless without Joe Biden. But instead they're multi
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: multime millionaires because they run the crime family. And this
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: is Joe Biden bragging about getting the prosecutor fired, the
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: same prosecutor that is looking into his son and the
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: company's son works for. I was not II, but it
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: just happened to be. That was the assignment I got.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I got all the good ones, and so I got Ukraine.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: And I remember going over convincing our team, our brothers,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: to convincing that that we should be providing for loan guarantees.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: And I went over, I guess the twelfth thirteenth time
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: to Kiev, and I was going supposed to announce that
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: there's another billion dollars loan guarantee. And I had gotten
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a commitment from Porshenko and from Yats and Yoke that
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: they would take action against the state prosecutor. And they didn't.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: So they said they had They were walking out to
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: presecut and said, nah, I said, I'm not going to
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: We're not going to give you the billion dollars. They said,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: you have no authority, you're not the president. The president said,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you're not
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be leaving here. And I think it was
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: about six hours. I looked, I said, leaving six hours.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: If the prosecutors not fired, you're not getting the money. Both,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: son of a bitch, you got fired, got fired. It's
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the guy gloating about a phone call. It's the guy
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: gloating about telling people that if you don't do what
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I tell you to do, I'm threatening Ukraine as a country.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: You better fire the prosecutor. That is looking into my
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: son's job with Barisma, and they're trying to figure out
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: the corruption, and you better fire him because this can't
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: come back to haunt me. And then after a half
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: pens he's sitting there and he's smiling and he's laughing
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: because we've got success. I got him fired. Now I
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry anymore. Now I can keep cashing
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: the checks coming in from China, coming in from russianolagarks,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: or coming in from Ukraine. We're back in business. You
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: want to talk about an impeachable offense, there's one for you. Now.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Where are we with gas prices right now? And what's happening,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: because this is even bigger part of the story, especially
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: understanding the story I just told you about Hunter Biden.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: US average gas prices have soared twenty two percent in
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: two weeks. We've hit a new record of four dollars
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: and fifty cents a gallon. The average US price for
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: regular gray gasoline at the pump swored a whopping seventy
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: nine cents over the past two weeks to hit this
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: new record. Now, the record on Sunday officially hit four
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: dollars and forty three cents. They say by Monday to
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: be fifty above four fifty on Tuesday. That exceeds by
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: thirty two cents the prior all time high in July
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: of two thousand and eight. When you guessed at Barack
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Obama and Joe Biden both we're doing what they do
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: so well, raising gas prices. And why were they raising
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: gas prices. They're raising gas prices because they want you
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: to get that electric car. They want to force you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: into submission. Industry analysts said. The new price is still
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: some way from the inflation adjusted record high about five
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: dollars and twenty four cents a gallon, So that's supposed
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: to make you feel better. The price of the pump
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: is a dollar fifty four higher than it was a
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: year ago, with plenty of consumers pointing directly at President
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden and his policies. You can't barely go to
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: a gas station now without seeing the pictures that people
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: put up, the stickers that people put up, those little
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: decals of a finger pointing at the gas price, which
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I did that popping up a gas stations throughout the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: country is working class Americans are feeling the pain. By
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the way, I've got a whole bag in my car
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: and every time I get gas now, I put that
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: on the gas pump. Gas prices, they say, are likely
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: to remain high, not just in short term, but also
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: for months on end, could be throughout the entire summer.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Global supply chain concerns from Russia's invasion of Ukraine fueling
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: a large part of this, but also our lack of
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: energy independence. Diesel prices, by the way, I've also skyrocketed,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: with a price up a dollar eighteen in recent weeks now,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: averaging over five dollars a gallon, five dollars and twenty
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: cents a gallon. This is going to crush our economy.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: So what does the White House saying they're desperate depend
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the blame for US gas prices squarely on Russian present
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin, while ignoring the all around effect of Biden's
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: energy policy, which is to not drill and the effects
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: of bidenflation. The Biden administrations delivered the worst inflation that
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Americans have seen him more than forty years, far outpacing
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: higher wages. As more and more critics are noting, this
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: quote is a putent spike, is what the White House
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: continues to say, even though this is a lie, right,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Jen Sakiet The White House said again, this is a
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: putent spike at the gas pump, not one promoted by
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: our sanctions. Nationwide, the highest average price for regular grade
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: gas is also in San Francisco. It's at almost six
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: dollars a gallon. They say it'll be at six hours
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: a gallon by midweek. According to a new survey, the
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: average price of diesel is up to the highest level
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: in history, and they say it will continue to rise. Now,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: let's go back to that question that was asked a
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: moment ago, that question that was asked, and it was
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: a brilliant question that was asked by Sean Hannity. Is
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: this payoff? Right? You got to ask the question now,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: is this payoff? I think there's a good chance that
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: this president is not just doing this on purpose, but
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: he's also doing it because he owes Vladimir Putin something,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: or he's got to protect his son. Mark Levin came
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: out with a brilliant commentary, and I want to play
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: this commentary for you because it was so good about
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: what's happening in this country and what's happening with us
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: on the world stage, and what's happening with Russia and
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: what's happening with China, and now China and Russian are
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: squarely aligned. We're now getting worried that Russia has directly
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: asked China for one financial aid and two military equipment
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: to continue their fight in Ukraine. And well maybe beyond.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: There are meetings happening as we speak between China and
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: America where we're all up. So I should say this
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: administration is all obsessed with one thing. They are obsessed
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: with not ratcheting up anything with Russia. They're afraid to
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: provoke Russia. And so Russia has now found their new
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: ally and now they're asking for money and weaponry from China.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Why is China going along with us? You can figure
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: that out pretty quickly. I want to play for you
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: real quick. Mark Levin and he does his TV show Life,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Liberty and Levin on Fox News Channel. He's a dear
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: friend of mine. I consider him a mentor. And I
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: was watching his show and I was like, oh, I
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: gotta play that. I gotta play that clip, And then
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: the clip just kept getting longer and longer because he
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: kept saying things that were so brilliant. And I want
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: you to understand. This is a guy that worked in
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: the Reagan administration. That's a guy that understood the end
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: of the Cold War. This is a guy that understands
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of history and how to deal with people
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: like Vladimir Putin. And I want you to hear what
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: he had to say about not only Putin, but also
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: the GOP, the Democratic Party, the media for really promoting
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: false stories are that they are trying to use to
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: manipulate the situation instead of just looking at the facts
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: and the reality of the situation on the ground. Take
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: a listen as you watch, and I sit here, Vladimir
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Putin's thugs are committing war crimes and atrocities in his direction.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: And in fact, as far as Vladimir Putin is concerned,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: they're not committing enough war crimes and atrocities because only
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: then does he believe that they can take Ukraine, and
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: take Ukraine quicker than he can right now. You know,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Biden likes to say bottom up and middle out when
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: it comes to the economy. Nobody really knows what he's
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: talking about. But I want to use that in the
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: military context with Putin. What Putin means by bottom up
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: and middle out is I want to kill as many
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: of their citizens as I can, and you Krane, starting
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: with the babies and the women, to make it so atrocious,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: so horrific, so inhumane, that the government will finally handy
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: these cities and hand me the country and hand me
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: the entire society, so I can finally get what I
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: want Ukraine, and then from there I intend to move.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: I intend to move beyond that. Now, how do we
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: know he intends to move beyond it? Because he told us,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: he spoke about it and wrote about it last summer.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: What is it with these analysts who don't understand that
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: this is just the beginning when it comes to Vladimir Putin?
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Now we keep hearing the word escalation. You know, we
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: don't want to escalate things or crimes are one thing,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: genocides another, But we can escalate beyond that. Putin hears this,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: His lapdog Labrov, he hears this, the Foreign Ministry, they
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: all hear it. So what do they do. They increase
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: their threats and the nature of their threats because they
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: hear us talking about what we fear escalation. What he
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: doesn't hear us talking about is deterrence. Deterrence piece through strength,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: is about deterrence. What you're hearing from this administration is
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: passivity is weakness. That's what Putin's hearing. That's what gs hearing.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: That's what Tehran's hearing. That's what they're all hearing. Why
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: do you think they attacked in the first place? And
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: so he waves around the idea of nuclear weapons. We
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: know he is nuclear weapons. The Soviet unions had nuclear
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: weapons now Russia for over half a century. So have
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: we what he may use those nuclear weapons if we
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: if we dare to be involved in facilitating the delivery
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: of mid twenty nine old jets to the Ukrainians. Okay,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: so only modern missile systems mobile missile systems can be conveyed.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: It doesn't even make any sense. And if Putin wanted
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: to use any By the way, I love the point
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: that he's making here. He's like, so, let me get
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: this straight. We're so stupid, or they think we're so
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: stupid that we won't give them jets that are old jets, right,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: not new jets, old jets, but we'll give them modern
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: missile systems. And that's not going to provoke them in
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: a nuclear war, right. It is totally absurd. The logic
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: that is being used from this government. Oh well, no,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: we can't give them old jets. Come on, now, what's
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: wrong with you? Right? Old jets are not something we
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: can be a part of. Missile systems. Yes, that we
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: can do old jets, bad, that'll start World War three.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: But missile systems that are brand new, oh, now that
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: we can do. It's like, are you crazy? Are you
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: totally psychotically insane to think that this is somehow a
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: distinction that either side is gonna like that Russia or
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Ukraine is going to give a crap about They don't,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: but we don't want to provoke them. Right, over and
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: over again we hear this. It's almost like what we
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: can continue to witness and watch failure because we are
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: too afraid or we've sold the American people and we
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: don't want to provoke. Well, if we provoke, if we
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: poke the bear, they might knock us. So we're playing
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: as smart folks, that's what we're doing. We're playing. It's smart.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: We're we're being cautious here, right, we're being careful here.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: We really have to slow things down now, we're trying
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: to save your lives and stop from a nuclear war.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: We don't want to give them these old jets because
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: that right really make them angry. Mark's right, it's stupid.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: It's nuclear weapons. Well, why doesn't he use them? If
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: he's that much of a nut, if he's that much
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: over the edge, he doesn't need to wait for provocation
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: quote unquote or escalation quote unquote. And how we escalated anything.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: He invaded a sovereign country. He invaded a country that
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: his country has an agreement with in nineteen ninety four
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: to help protect their sovereignty if they give up their nukes.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: There are no nukes there. There's been a phony story
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: about American biotech centers there to develop weapons and so forth.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: And of course the Putin wing of the Republican Party
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: and the Putin wing of the media, and the Putin
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: wing of the Democrat Party, they're all over it. Now.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Those are old Soviet locations. By the way, listen to this.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: Everybody's all over this, right, these rhinos, these warhawks, and
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: the GOP, the Democratic Party, the media, they're all promoting
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: these false claims. The Ukraine is developing these bioweapons, with
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: the US trying to say, see, we really can't get involved,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: We've got to be cautious here. Look at we gotta
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: be careful. They might nucas. There's these biological weapons. Possibly
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: it's all old news, it's not real. It doesn't matter though,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: because if you reported the newspaper, then it gives you
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: a reason to not act that the United States is
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: located has been trying to deal with. We're not developing
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: biochemical weapons in the Ukraine. What is it about these
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: so called American firsters in the end, who are really
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: American lasters If you think about it, you see these
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: pictures of the babies being killed. You see a maternity
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: ward hospital attacked, that was targeted, attacked, six hundred beds there.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: That's one of the biggest hospitals they have. Why they
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: target a nuclear power plant? Oh, Mark, you believe those stories.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: They attacked it. They attacked it. That's why the Ukrainians
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: gave it up. Because the Ukrainians didn't want a nuclear response.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: That's why. But would pute US nuclear weapons against the
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: United States. But what's he waiting for. He's waiting for
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: MAKE twenty nine to be given to the Ukrainian pilots
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: through Germany. That's what would trigger the launching of nuclear weapons.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Not cutting off his oil, not ground to air missiles.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, come on, folks, this is the problem. So
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: we get this word escalation, it would be viewed as
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: an escalation. The same damned generals in the United States
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Department of Defense, the same Joint chiefs of Staff, the
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: same President of the United States, the same Vice President
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: of the United States, the same Secretary Defense who surrendered
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: an Afghanistan, the same Secretary of State who surrendered all
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: leverage we have with the President of the United States
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: with Putin prior to him invading, the same Secretary of
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: State and president who is effectively are effectively arming the
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: Iranians with nuclear weapons as I speak. They're the ones
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: who are afraid. Oh, we don't want to escalate. Escalate,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: It's deterrence, ladies and gentlemen. Our enemies see we are weak.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Our enemy see the budget that the Democrats originally put
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: up under Biden, which flatlines the United States military while
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: spending enormous amounts of sums, historic amounts of sums on
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: everything else. They see it, and then I love these
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: analysts agoing we can't escalate, Mark, what are you talking about?
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: The big twenty nines. We don't want to drag NATO
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: into this. You know what, ladies and gentlemen, I really
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: do miss the Reagan days and the Trump days. We
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: never thought this way. We never talked this way. We
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: never thought this way, and we never taught it this way.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: He's right on both. By the way, you should miss
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: the Reagan days and the Trump days because we never
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: talked this way. He went on to also say, by
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: the way that Trump's foreign policy was genius right and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: it was. You know what, ladies and gentlemen, I really
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: do miss the Reagan days and the Trump days. We
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: never thought this way. We never talked this way. The
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: reason Puton didn't of a Ukraine when Donald Trump was
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: president is because he respected and feared Donald Trump. That's
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: why deterrence. Trump increased the military spending. He talked NATO
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: into increasing their spending, even though he was attacked as
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: a Russian you know, an operative who was undermining NATO.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: And know he was fed up with NATO because they
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: wouldn't spend the money they needed to defend themselves. Iran.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Iran didn't in a pot if you get my drift,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: because they feared Trump. Because Trump was destroying iron. He
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: choked Iran missileman a little rocket man over their North Korea.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: He was behaving himself too, And we can go on
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: and on and on for all the attacks on Donald Trump.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: The man was a foreign policy genius, was he not.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Mark is absolutely right. Simple foreign policy of strength, simple
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: foreign policy that we need to make sure that the
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: rest of the world knows we're not screwing around. Simple
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: foreign policy, that we're willing to talk to anybody in putting.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: You know, North Korean leader right, We're not afraid to talk,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: We're not afraid to have a conversation. We're not afraid
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: to have dialogue with the biggest enemies in the world.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Foreign policy people hated this because it meant they lost
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: their power to manipulate the situation or to feel important
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: or significant. It's a complete opposite of what happened many times,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: George Bush. It was a complete opposite of what happened
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: with Barack Obama. Sometimes you need to find out what
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: these people are, who they are, what they believe in,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: why they're acting so crazy. Sometimes you confuse the situation,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: diffuse it just by having a simple conversation, Which brings
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: me back to the very beginning, the point that I
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: made earlier at this point, you have to ask yourself
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: a real question. Why is it the President United's America
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: seems to be helping Vladimir Putin? Why is it that
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: he acts like he's so afraid of a man that
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: we should not be afraid of the way that he
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: is acting like we should be afraid of them? Why
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: is it? Is it because they have dirt on the
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: entire Biden crime family. At this point, I would argue, yes,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep following this story on Hunter Biden because
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: the parallels right now are incredible. Make sure you share
