Hypocrisy! Judge Sends Bannon to Prison while Bidens get a Pass · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: We've got a lot to talk about on today's show.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: It includes D Day and the weaponization of D Day
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: by the Biden administration to push for their war with
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Russia and Ukraine. We also have an update for you
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: on the Hunter Biden trial and well how much crack
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: this guy like to smoke that actually came out in
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the trial, and a lot more. I'm going to have that,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: But before we get to those two things, I want
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to talk to you about this judge. A judge has
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: officially sent Steve Bannon to prison, demanding that he report
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: to prison by July first to begin serving his four
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: month sentence for contempt of Congress. In other words, Steve
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Bannon said no to a congressional subpoena. He is going
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to jail for that. Hunter Biden did the same thing.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: He is not going to prison for that. Doctor Fount.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: We now know very clearly lied under oath. He will
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: not go to prison for that when it deals with Congress.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: And we also now know that the President's son and
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: brother also apparently lied to Congress as well. I have
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: a feeling they will not go to prison. The double
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: standard is just glaring, and I think many Americans are
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: now seeing that, I think that's exactly why Donald Trump
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: is going to win. And I think that's exactly why
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: so many Americans.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Have had enough.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: But when you look at this, and this is political
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: persecution one oh one. They went after everybody around Trump
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: early on to try to take out Trump, hoping that
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: someone would have some dirt on Trump they could then
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: use as leverage to give that person a deal. It
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: didn't work, and this former top Donald Trump advisor, Steve Bannon,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: ordered by this federal judge to report to prison July one.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Bannon is seventy years old. He was convicted of contempt
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: in July of twenty twenty two for defying a subpoena
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to testify before the congressional panel that investigated the January sixth,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one attack on the US Capitol by Trump supporters. Okay,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: so you understand the background on this. One of the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: masterminds Bannon was behind Trump's successful twenty sixteen presidential campaign.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: He was sentenced to four months in prison in October
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two, but has remained free while the
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: while the appeals process has been ongoing. Fast forward to
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: now this US Federal appeals Court upheld the conviction last month.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: The US District Judge Carl Nichols revoked his bail at
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: a court hearing on Thursday and ordered him to report
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to prison by July first. A defiant Bannon addressed reporters
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: outside the Washington DC Courthouse after the judge's order, saying
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: this to the American people.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Merrick Garland, Lisa Monico, the entire Justice Department, They're not
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: gonna shut up Trump. They're not gonna shut Navarro, They're
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: not gonna shut up Bannon, and they're certainly not gonna
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: shut up MAGA. If you look right here at your reporters,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: in the two and a half or three years we've
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: been here, look at the rise of MAGA. Look at
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: the rise of Donald Trump. If the election was heard
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: held today, According to Harry anton Over at CNN, President
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Trump would win in a landslide. All of this, besides
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: the major illegal issues that have to be addressed, all
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: of this is about one thing. This is about shutting
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: down the MAGA movement, shutting down grassroots conservatives, shutting down
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: President Trump. Not only are we winning, we are going
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: to prevail. And every number in every poll shows that
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: there's nothing that can shut me up, and nothing that
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: will shut me up.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: There's not a prison.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: There's not a prison. There's not a prison built. There's
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: not a prison built. Our jail built that wever shut
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: me up. All Victory Tamaga. We're gonna win this. We're
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: gonna win it the Supreme Court, and more importantly, we're
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: gonna win on November fifth in amazing landslide with the Senate,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: the House, and also Donald J. Trump back as President
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: United States. Thank you very much.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: By the way, I think there's a very good chance
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: it's Steve Bannon will as he described it, win at
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: But this judge is saying, no, you're going to jail. Now.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you about my friends at Patriot Mobile
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: real quick, and especially after you heard what Steve Bannon
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: had to say, it's time for you to put your
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: money where your mouth is with companies that support our values.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: I am not giving my money to companies that actually
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: fight against what I believe in and what my family
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: is all about. And that is exactly why I switched
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: to Patriot Mobile. For more than a decade now, Patriot
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider now
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: why would that matter. Well, if you're with Big Mobile,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: then you're helping give massive don't donations to hardcore liberal causes,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: candidates and organizations.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: At the local, state, and national level.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: You're also helping give major donations to Plan Parenthood, the
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: number one abortion provider in the country. That is why
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: I switched to Patriot Mobile, and switching now in twenty
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: twenty four your cell phone is actually incredibly easy. It
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: is all done over the phone. You don't even have
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to go into a store. You can keep your same
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: cell phone number you have right now, and you can
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: keep your same phone you have or upgrade to a
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: brand new one.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: But here's what happens when you switch to Patriot Mobile.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Not only are you sitting a.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Message that you support free speech and religious freedom, the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, and our military, our
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: veterans and our first responder heroes, but they take five
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: percent of your bill on average every month and they
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: give it back to those causes. So make the switch.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: It is easy. All you got to do is call
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: them nine to seven to two Patriot.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Whether it's your phone or your family lines, or a
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: business or a small business, nine to seven two Patriot.

• 6:19
  Speaker 1: or nine seven to two Patriot use the promo code
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Ben and you'll get free activation as well. Now, Bannon
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: and what he said, they will never build a prison.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: There is not a prison that will ever shut me up.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: What Steve Bannon said there, I agree with him completely
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: on He is making it clear that there is a
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: there is a double standard in this country, and it
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: is law fare. The Democratic Party went after people around Trump,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: and they went after them to try to get dirt
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: on Trump, and when that didn't work, they then said,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna bring you in here. We're gonna
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: haul you in here, and we're gonna force you to testify,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: and if you don't show up, we're gonna put you
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: in jail. And that's exactly what's happened, regardless of what
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: happened with others that have done the exact same thing.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: But they're sending a message with a weaponization of our
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: DOJ If you are a conservative and you get out
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: of line, we will figure out a way to arrest you.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: We've done it, by the way to Donald Trump. So
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: if you think we can't we won't do it to you,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: you're wrong. And that's what they've done with Peter Navarro,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: and that's exactly what they've done now with Steve Bannon. Now,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Steve Bannon is an individual that I understand is beyond furious,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: and he should be. But he also said this, We're
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: going to win November fifth and an amazing landslide. He
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: also mentioned Navarro. Navar is another top Trump advisor.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: This is lawfair.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Peter Navarro was convicted of contempt of Congress and began
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: serving a four month sentence in Florida prison in March.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Navarro no prior record, seventy four years old. He is
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the highest ranking former member of the Trump administration to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: spend time behind bars for action stemming from the Republican
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: former president's efforts they claimed to overturn the results of
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election. In reality, they were just asking questions.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Bannon also served as the White House and in the
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: White House's chief strategists for the first seven months of
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Trump's term, leaving due to conflicts with other top staffers,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: but he never lost his faith in MAGA. In twenty twenty,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: he was charged after the government decided to weaponize itself
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: and come after him. He was charged with wire fraud
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and money laundering quote for taking personal use of millions
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of dollars contributed they claim by donors towards the construction
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: of a border wall with Mexico, while others were found
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: guilty in the scheme. Trump issued a blanket pardon to
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Bannon before leaving office in January of twenty twenty one,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: leading to the dismissal of the charges against him for that.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: But the government was not going to back down, and.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: That's exactly why they went after him after January the sixth,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: and when he wouldn't testify, they said, here you go,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: We're going to put you in jail. And that's exactly
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: what they have now done. This is pure lawfare against conservatives.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: And you should pay attention to this and understand if
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: they can do it to Trump, if they can do
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: it to Navarro, if they can do it to Bannon,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: they can absolutely do it to you. All right, And
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: now I want to turn to the Hunter Biden trial
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and there's a lot that I need to work through
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: with you that has happened in that trial. Hallie Biden,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: that is Bo Biden, the deceased son of the President
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: That is his wife.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: When he passed away, she then somehow got involved as
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: a girlfriend to Bo's brother, Hunter Biden. Halle Biden was
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: testifying in this case and she admitted, and I'm quoting,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: that Hunter Biden enjoyed crack rocks the size of ping
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: pong balls. Yeah, Hunter Biden was such an attic and
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: such a high roller. And now this explains why the
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Biden crime family needed all the millions of dollars, because apparently,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: when you're buying ping pong size balls of crack rocks,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: it ain't cheap. Halle Biden, hunters x and brother's widow
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: said this on the stand during Hunter's gun trial. President
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden, as you know, involved in some witness tampering
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: last week when he visited unannounced Halle Biden at our
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Delaware home. Some say the visit was clear witness tampering
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and something that anybody else in a court case if
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: they would have done this or had a family member
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: do this, they would have exploded. A judge would have
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: exploded for witness tampering. But don't worry, because it's the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: president of the United States of America. Nothing will be done.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: What's a little witness tampering right between ex in laws?
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: I guess is how you would look at this, making
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: sure the stories are straight. Halle by the way, who
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: also smoked crack. We are told from the testimony with
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Hunter threw his gun, she said in that dumpster in
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. The incident was allegedly covered up by the
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Secret Service, even though technically at the time Joe Biden
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: did not have Secret Service protection. Hallie says she found
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Hunter's gun in the car, took the gun, pouch, speedloader,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and ammunition in a gift bag, and threw it in
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a dumpster behind a Wilmington, Delaware.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Grocery store.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: The prosecutors say, quote, I didn't know where he was,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and I'd been trying to reach him for weeks, she
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: recalled the morning of the incident, he was tired, exhausted,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: looked like he hadn't slept, she said.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Hallie said other.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Than the gun, she found trash, clothes, drug paraphernalia, and
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: some remnants of crack in the trunk and the trunk on.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Of his car. It was a terrible experience that I
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: went through.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I'm embarrassed and I'm ashamed, and I regret that period
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: in my life. Hollie told the jury, who had introduced
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: you to crack? The prosecutor asked her, Hunter did, She responded, so,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: not only did Hunter bet up with his ex sister
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: in law after his brother died, he then introduced her
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: to crack cocaine.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: She said.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Quote Hunter smoked crack every twenty minutes or so from
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen through twenty eighteen. That is what his ex
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: girlfriend testified in the gun trial this week. Now, this
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: time frame from from seventeen to eighteen is very interesting.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: And the reason why I.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Say that is because, look, crack cocaine, especially ping pong size,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: it ain't cheap. You're burning through cash if you're smoking
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: it every twenty minutes for a year plus, right straight, Well,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: guess what.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Happened during that same time.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: You had high level, shady foreign actors from Romania, from Ukraine,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: from Russia, from China hiring Hunter for some of the
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: family's most lucrative business deals were in the same timeframe.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: The Biden family business was in full swing during seventeen
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: and eighteen, just after Joe Biden left the presidency. Biden
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: family members and Biden business linked entities received more than
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: fifteen million directly from individuals in Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Romania
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and China. According to the House Impeachment Inquiry, one of
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the biggest deals came when Biden's family members accepted money
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: from the company. And I mentioned this to you yesterday CFC,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: that's the China Energy Company, an organization with close ties
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: directly to the Chinese Communist Party and their spying apparatus.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: The House Oversight Committee revealed in twenty thirteen that CEFC
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: controlled State Energy HK Limited, a company linked to one
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: point three million in collective payments to the Biden family members.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: You look at these stars reports from the banks, that
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: is the suspicious activity reports. The committee also discovered a
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Biden associate by the name of Rob Walker received a
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: three million dollar wire transfer from CEFC and what happened
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: in turn for that three million going into his account.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Four Biden family members, including Hunter Biden, James Biden, Halle Biden,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: and a quote unidentified Biden re received a collective one
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: point three million. That was their cut from the overall
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: three million dollar wire transfer. Now, Hunter Biden, never forget
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: he's a lawyer, also earned a one million dollar legal
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: retainer in twenty seventeen the same time he was smoking
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: crack every twenty minutes. Where'd you get the million dollar
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: legal retainer from none other than CEFC's chairman Yee. In addition,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Hunter received a large diamond from Yee worth an estimated
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: eighty thousand dollars in February of twenty seventeen. That'll buy
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you a lot of, you know, ping pong sized cracked balls. Apparently,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: more details about the Biden family deals are coming out,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: and what we now know is that this was a
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: man that was a hardcore spender and a hardcore crack
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: at it. Now. Halle Biden not only did she testify
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: to the drug use, but she also said that missing
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: gun disappeared after she tossed it in the dumpster. She
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: said that missing Revolver was gone because well, she was
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: angry and scared. We know that the FBI and the
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Secret Service, who had no business getting involved in this
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: case because the Vice president did not have Secret Service protection,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: got involved in the case of the missing firearm, according
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: to Hunter's text messages, raising serious questions about what happened.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: To the gun.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Hunter's revolver appeared at his gun trial six years later.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Prosecutors asked Hallie how Hunter found out about the missing gun.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I did not tell him, Halley replied, according to court reports,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I was just going to pretend like it wasn't me.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: The gun was allegedly returned by an older man who
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: regularly rummages through the grocery source tra ash to collect
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: recyclable items. That, according to people familiar with the situation,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: that's what Politica.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Reported in twenty twenty one.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Text messages from Hunter, however, reveal what appears to be
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: a contradiction in an official Secret Service statement which claimed
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: the agency had quote unquote no involvement in the incident
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: involving Halle finding a gun inside of Hunter Biden's pickup
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: and tossing it in a trash can behind a grocery
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: store where they frequently shopped. Well, guess what Hunter's text
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: messages say. That's a lie because his text message says,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: quote the police, the FBI, the Secret Service came on
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: the scene. So why was the Secret Service there? Because
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: they were dealing with a former vice president's child, which
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: had none of their business involved at this point, but
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: they got involved. During Wednesday's proceedings. Prosecutors for just this
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: department also produced the weapon for the jury and the
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: former gun shop employee, Gordon Cleveland, who saw the gun
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: to Hunter to inspect.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Jurors cranked their.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Necks to see the gun for Cleveland to verify it.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: He verified it immediately. According to court reporters, Hallie, Hunter's
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: ex and his brother's widow, told the jury on Thursday
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: that after leaving the dumpster, she returned home. Hunter was
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: upset about the missing weapon. I remember him telling me
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: to go back and file a police report, she said.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: According to court reporters, he was angry with me. First
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: go look for it. Holly recalled Hunter's directive, but when
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: she went to look for the gun, I couldn't find.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: It, Hallie said of the missing weapon.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Hunter told her to immediately file a police report, which
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: she did. While at the grocery store. Prosecutors called up
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: security camera footage from outside of the grocery store, which
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: shows Halle Biden back up to the store in a
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: black vehicle, got out.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: And somewhat frantically was looking for the gun. She looked
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: all over the.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Area outside the store before getting back into her car.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: What did you do after you couldn't find it, the
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: prosecutor asked her. Talked to them at the grocery store,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: asking if they took the trash out or had security cameras,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: she replied. Hallie also testified about Hunter's text messages. One
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: in particular on October the thirteenth, appeared important to the prosecution.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: It was about a dealer named Mookie in Wilmington. A
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: second message from October to fourteenth was also shown to
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: the jury. In it, Hunter wrote, I was sleeping on
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: a car smoking crack. The court reporters noted the text
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: are the clearest pieces of evidence against Hunter. NBC is
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: confirming now saying they show Hunter use drugs in October,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: the month of the incident. Prosecutors say Hunter listen to
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Howe's testimony very carefully, according to court reporters, obviously trying
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: to see what his story needs to be and how
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: he might need to change it depending on what she
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: actually says. Now, let me go back to just this overall,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: how he even got to hear I want to go
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: back to the FBI now having to admit that Hunter
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Biden's laptop is real because it's in this court case,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: and much of the evidence in this case is coming
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: from his laptop, including the text messages that I just
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: talked about. But let me remind you of what the
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: media said about the Hunter Biden laptop, which now the
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: FBI has admitted is real.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: They knew it was real all along.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: They just didn't want you to know it was real
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: because they knew it could have a major impact on
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: the election for years ago.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: In twenty twenty.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: So take a listen, and I'm going to go back
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: to CBS Evening News. When the laptop broke, the FBI
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: tried to classified as disinformation so that there would be
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: no investigation into the laptop. Hunter Biden, the President of
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: United States of America, the White House have all lied
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: to you about the authenticity of this laptop, and now
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: because of this court case, the FBI has had to
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: admit it is real. But the media, they knew how
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: damaging this would be to Hunter Biden, or really they
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: don't care about Hunter to the President of the United
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: States of America, Joe Biden while he was running for president.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: So what do they do to you. They lied to
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: your face.
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: Listen carefully and tonight, the Trump campaign is accusing Twitter
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: and Facebook of censorship after the social media companies blocked
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: the spread of an unverified story about former Vice President
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Joe Biden's son and the laptop allegedly full of his
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: old emails. It's a story raising concerns about whether it's
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: real or just designed to so confusion in the final
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: weeks of the election.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: Experts say it has all the hallmarks of information laundering.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: This looks like your classic disinformation campaign.
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: Eric O'Neil is a former FBI operative.
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: Very steal the information with a cyber attack, get the
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: emails from Hunter Biden's account, and then put them on
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: these laptops that are left at a repair store. And
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: that's how the information is now laundered into the public.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: Who do you think is behind this, Well, the Russians
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: would be my number one guest.
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: Social media outlets were quick to limit the spread of
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: the story, Twitter briefly suspending the accounts of the Trump
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: campaign and White House Press secretary after they tried to
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: share it.
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: Twitter and Facebook have limited the distribution of that Hunter
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: Biden story, and last night, Twitter appear to suspend the
• 22:47
  Speaker 7: Twitter account of the White House Press Secretary Katie Mcanetie
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: when she tried to share that story.
• 22:53
  Speaker 8: Damn, you know a story is shady when Facebook is
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: saying whoa whoa, whoa whoa, Maybe people shouldn't. For a
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: long time, Juliani has been openly working to dig up
• 23:03
  Speaker 8: dirt and promote disinformation on the Bidens. And now the
• 23:07
  Speaker 8: Washington Post is also reporting that the intelligence community was
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: so concerned that the Russians were using Juliani to feed
• 23:13
  Speaker 8: Russian disinformation to the president that they warned the White.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: House about it last year.
• 23:19
  Speaker 8: We're being told by two people who have been briefed
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: on what the FBI is doing is that they're looking
• 23:24
  Speaker 8: into whether these unverified emails about Hunter Biden published by
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: the New York Post about foreign business dealings are part
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: of the bigger Russian disinformation effort, which is well underway
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: in these final days of the twenty twenty race. The
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: intelligence community has said for months that Russia is very
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: actively engaged in a disinformation campaign in the twenty twenty election,
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: in particular against Joe Biden to denigrate his campaign in
• 23:50
  Speaker 8: favor of President Trump.
• 23:52
  Speaker 9: I think there are a lot of issues related to
• 23:54
  Speaker 9: this post story that portally referenced the Hunter Biden emails,
• 24:00
  Speaker 9: and as I and several of my former colleagues have
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: pointed out publicly that it does bear the hallmark so
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: Russian disinformation.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: That's John Brennan, the former CIA director's voice. You just
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: heard there. Now. I just played for you ninety seconds.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Of Joe Biden, the US intelligence officials, and the American
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: media claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: I could play for you, by the way.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: A lot more of this, but now they're having to
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: admit in court. Yes, we knew all along the Hunter
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Biden's laptop was real. Yes, the FBI lied to you. Yes,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: the President of the United States of America lied to you. Yes,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: the White House lied to you. Yes, the campaign lied
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: to you. We were all lying to you, and we
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: did it for one reason. We did it because we
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: needed to make sure, no matter what, that the President
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: of the United State America, then candidate Joe Biden would win.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: This was all about winning, that's it. It was simply
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: about winning. And it wasn't just you know, these individuals.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: James Clapper, for example, he went on CNN and he
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: said this, this is the former director of National Intelligence.
• 25:22
  Speaker 10: Just classic textbook Soviet Russian trade craft at work. The
• 25:29
  Speaker 10: Russians have analyzed the target. They understand that the president
• 25:33
  Speaker 10: and his enablers crave dirt on Vice President Biden. Whether
• 25:39
  Speaker 10: it's real or contrived, it doesn't matter to them. And
• 25:43
  Speaker 10: so all of a sudden, two and a half weeks
• 25:46
  Speaker 10: before the election, this laptop appears somehow, without emails on
• 25:52
  Speaker 10: without any metadata. It just it's all very curious. So
• 25:57
  Speaker 10: here you have a willing to and the Russians who
• 26:01
  Speaker 10: are very sophisticated about how to exploit a willing target.
• 26:06
  Speaker 10: And to me, that's what's it working.
• 26:08
  Speaker 11: The FBI says, this laptop is not Russian disinformation, So
• 26:13
  Speaker 11: what are you talking about here?
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: This laptop is real. It's not just the laptop.
• 26:17
  Speaker 11: There's other emails, there's text messages.
• 26:19
  Speaker 12: They are real.
• 26:20
  Speaker 11: So according to the government, I.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: Know, I've verified everybody to look at that, but that's
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: not what we're hearing from you.
• 26:28
  Speaker 12: You want to report this.
• 26:29
  Speaker 11: This is one of the most powerful because families in Washingtons,
• 26:32
  Speaker 11: the Biden family, and you're okay, You're okay with our
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: interests being sold out to profit Joe Biden and his
• 26:39
  Speaker 11: family when when we're suffering during a pandemic from communist China, desable, Okay,
• 26:48
  Speaker 11: as you know perfectly well.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: By the way, Christian Poor there.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: You can hear a CNN she's she's rolling her eyes
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: as she was being called out by that guest.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Saying, you're you're you're facilitating this, You're you're.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Helping cover this up. And she's like, oh, that's not
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: even close to true. Every one of the people in
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: the military that knew they were part of this, in
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: the intelligence community, they knew.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: They knew the laptop was real from day one.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: The FBI knew it was real, and they went on
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: TV just like you heard there with Christianapur at CNN,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: and they just flat out lied to you, the American people,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: over and over again. When Donald Trump was asked about this,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Remember when that when he was asked about it, what
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: they said, listen to listen to Donald Trump.
• 27:33
  Speaker 13: One of the biggest scandals I've ever seen. And you
• 27:35
  Speaker 13: don't cover anything. You want to talk about it, want
• 27:40
  Speaker 13: to talk about insignificant things. I'm telling you, of course
• 27:43
  Speaker 13: it can be verified.
• 27:44
  Speaker 10: Excuse me.
• 27:45
  Speaker 13: They found the laptop Leslie listening. What can't be verified
• 27:50
  Speaker 13: the laptop you said?
• 27:52
  Speaker 12: Was that your laptop?
• 27:53
  Speaker 10: For real?
• 27:53
  Speaker 11: I don't know.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: I know, but you know, I really don't know.
• 27:56
  Speaker 12: Okay, answer is I don't know, yes or no.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: If the laptop, I don't the idea, I've no idea.
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: What it could have been yours?
• 28:02
  Speaker 8: Of course, certainly there could be a laptop out there
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: that was stolen from me.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: There could be that I was hacked. It could be
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: that was that it was Russian intelligence. It could be
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: that it was stolen from me.
• 28:14
  Speaker 12: And you didn't drop off a laptop to be repaired
• 28:17
  Speaker 12: in Delaware, not that I remember at all. In October
• 28:20
  Speaker 12: twenty twenty, a New York Post article said that emails
• 28:23
  Speaker 12: purportedly showing shady dealings in Ukraine by Hunter Biden were
• 28:27
  Speaker 12: found on a laptop computer that he supposedly left in
• 28:30
  Speaker 12: a Delaware repair shop in twenty nineteen. The details were
• 28:34
  Speaker 12: sketchy at best, and last month, a declassified intelligence report
• 28:39
  Speaker 12: said that before the election, the Russians had launched a
• 28:43
  Speaker 12: smear campaign against Joe Biden and his family.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: If you ever trust the media again after what I
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: just played for you, I want to I mean this
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: you're an idiot.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: They knew they were lying to you. Now the FBI
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: has had it meant in this court case.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, the laptop is real and the evidence is being
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: used to prove a case against Hunter Biden. If there's
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: no other takeaway from this, this is the takeaway that
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: everything that we've been saying has been verified and the
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: intelligence community knew it. I hope you'll take what I
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: just gave you, and I hope you'll share it on
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: social media. I hope you'll share it everywhere you can
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: because this needs to be exposed. And I'll see you
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: back here tomorrow morning.
