Speaker 1 (00:01):
I want to start by just saying one thing that
makes me incredibly angry, and I.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Want you guys to go check it out.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
I put it up on social media because it's important
that you see this. There is a new video that
is out and images that have been put out on
social media that the Taliban has well sanctioned parading at
Bogram Air Force Base. You know where we used to be, yeah,
(00:29):
in Afghanistan. Biden abandoned that air Force base in favor
of conducting the evacuation in the crowded city of Kabul
that cost Americans their lives and countless people that have
helped American soldiers their lives when we abandon them and
left them behind.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
That's number one, Okay.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Number two, they are parading at Bogram Airbase all of
the military equipment that we left behind, including a significant
number of armored vehicles. Now, if we were smart, we
would have at least blown them up. There were arguments
overwhell it would have cost too much to shift them
(01:11):
all back to America. So a lot of them were
at their life and we heard the excuses from Biden
and Harris. You look at these pictures and you tell
me that these armored vehicles are there at the end
of their life.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
These machines of war.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Right, the Democrats love to talk about because when you
witness what the Taliban is doing in their Taliban gear,
in American vehicles as far as the eye can see,
stacked row after rows, side by side by side by side,
parading through Bagram Airbase where that we created, that we built,
(01:46):
and then we left it because Biden Harris, they wanted
to say, we're the ones that ended the longest war
in American history on the anniversary of nine to eleven.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Right, that's all that mattered to them.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
They didn't care if American troops got killed in the process.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
They didn't They didn't care about any of it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
And now we are watching them fly helicopters and hundreds
and hundreds of armored vehicles going down the runways at
Bograam Air Base in a parade.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Look at this video and look at the level.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Of incompetency, because mark my word, in my lifetime, we're
going to have to go back to the Middle East
to deal with these terrorists. We are, it's just going
to happen, and accept the problem and the difference this
time is going to be this We're going to be
fighting against them in some capacity, are bombing them in
some capacity with our damn equipment that we left behind
(02:42):
because of these incompetent idiots in this administration. Go look
at the video I just posted up on social media.
Ben Ferguson Podcast on Instagram, Ben Ferguson's Show on x
and on Facebook.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I'll put it everywhere. I just had to get that
off my chest.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And we've got a lot of other news talk about,
including things to deal with the economy and some shocking
numbers there out under Biden Harris and their economic conditions
going into this election.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We're also going to talk.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
About Hunter Biden and now how the media seems to
be trying to blackmail President Joe Biden into resigning. I'll
give that to you in a moment, But first, we
are quickly approaching the one year anniversary of the horrific
Commas attacks on Israel, and still the Holy Land continues
to be attacked on multiple fronts. There deadly threats are
(03:33):
increasing in northern Israel as we speak. There are constant
rocket attacks from Hesbla that have been fired at Israel,
causing widespread damage, with raging wildfires destroying precious farmland. All
of this being done because of Iran. Since the war started,
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on
(03:53):
the forefront of Israel, addressing the needs of the most
vulnerable now and they need our help like never before.
That's why I'm proud to partner with IFCJ, because your
life saving donation is helping provide emergency food as well
as critical security needs such as flag jackets, firefighting equipment,
(04:14):
armored vehicles, armored ambulances, bomb shelters, and much more. We
are looking for five hundred of you to join the
Fellowship and met by donating one hundred and fifty dollars
to meet these urgent security needs and things. To a
generous IFCJ supporter, your gift will be matched, doubling your
(04:38):
impact in the Holy Land. If you are proud to
stand with Israel, they need all of our help right now.
To make your gift, you can do it by calling
them eight eight four eight eight IFCJ. That's eight and
eight four eight eight IFCJ. IFCJ is four three two
(04:58):
five on your phone or go online and you can
give securely there at SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's one word
support IFCJ dot org as Israel needs your support now
more than ever. All Right, So let's get on to
the issue. And the first one that I want to
(05:20):
get on your radar screen is this. There is a
very good chance, I think it's a fifty to fifty chance. Now, Okay,
I'm not kidding when I say this, a fifty fifty chance, okay,
that Joe Biden resigns before January. And the reason why
I say that is because it looks like Democrats are
(05:43):
trying to finish him off so that Kamwa Harris will
actually be the president of the United States of America
by election day. They believe that will help her become
president in the election and that people will like her
more if she's already seen as being the president of
the United States of America. Now, why do I believe
(06:05):
this is happening Because the Deep State and the government
under Harris's control obviously is turning now on Joe Biden.
Let me read you the headline that just broke from
the Associated Press. This isn't Fox News, this is the
Associated Press. Hunter Biden reportedly sought US government help for
(06:25):
Ukrainian gas company Barisma Now, this article by the AP
could have been written literally years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
It was not because they needed to protect Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
But now the media has turned on him because they
want to get rid of him so that Kamala Harris
has the best chance of winning. So now the Associated
Press is willing to write an article that they've been
sitting on for years. Let me read you the first
couple paragraphs from the Associated Press.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Again, this isn't Fox News.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Hunter Biden asked the US ambassador to Italy for help
regarding an energy project a Ukrainian gas company was pursuing
while his father was the Vice president.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
This according to The New York Times in.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Their new article that also came out just hours before.
And so now you're seeing the dominoes fall right. New
York Times reports it bammed the Associated presses all on this,
and then everybody else starts to pick it up.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Why is this all coordinated and this effort.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Happening because they want Joe Biden to leave office. The
second paragraph, Hunter Biden soned of President Joe Biden wrote
a letter to the ambassador in twenty sixteen seeking assistance
for Barisma, which have been working on a geothermal project
in Italy, the newspaper reported, citing newly release records and interviews.
(07:51):
Now why are they newly released just now? Why weren't
they released earlier? You and I both know why. Because
they had to protect Joe Biden at all costs. But
now that they've gotten rid of him in this soft coup,
they need him to be fully kicked out of office,
to resign so that Kama Harris again can be president.
(08:11):
The article goes on at the time Hunter Biden said
on the board of Barrisma, which was having trouble getting
regulatory approval for the major project. A businessman involved in
the project told the newspaper the revelation is likely to
fuel Republican criticism of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings. By
the way, I love how they say this like it's
going to be new. This is what we already knew that.
(08:34):
Now the government is just admitting it and the papers
are now reporting on it to put more pressure on
the president Joe Biden to leave office sooner than was expected.
This is not fueling new Republican criticism. We've already knew
this was going on. We know that Republicans have been
(08:55):
telling the story of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings, which
have been the same by the way of GOP investigations
into the Presence family, which of course the media said
was fake news and they refuse to what cover it
until now now. This report also comes weeks before Hunter
Biden is set to stand trial on federal charges alleging
(09:16):
he failed to pay taxes on money he received from
Barisma and other foreign businesses. The story that I'm breaking
right now in Hunter Biden and the timing of this
is also just like epically hilarious because it just tells
you how corrupt the media is. They will lie to
(09:39):
your face, they will cover up terrible, terrible political sins,
they can even use it to blackmail you, and then
when it's convenient, they will then report stories as they
move on to the next powerbroker, which is clearly now
Kamala Harris. How do I know this, Well, look at
(09:59):
the the other story that I told you about on
the show.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I think it was on Friday of last week.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Prosecutors indicated this is the government, the deep State, turning
on Joe Biden last week in court papers that they
want to introduce evidence at trial about Hunter Biden's other
business dealings, including an arrangement with a Romanian businessman who
is quote trying to influence US government policy during Joe
(10:25):
Biden's term as Vice president. Now, why is the government
right now out of nowhere, all of a sudden like.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Doing their job. They're not doing their job.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
They just need to get Kamala Harris to become the
president before election day. And the person that's standing in
their way is Joe Biden. That's what this comes down to.
That's what this boils down to. And this is exactly
why at this point, I bet you Joe Biden is
regretting his decision to say I'm not going to run
for re election because look at how fast it turns
(10:56):
into the hunger Games for his survival now Hunter, Biden's
lawyer said his client's outreach to the ambassador on behalf
of Barisma was quote a proper request, and that he
asked various people to help arrange an introduction between Barisma
and the president of Italy's Tuscany region.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
No meeting occurred, no project materialized, no requests for anything
in the US was ever sought, and only an introduction
Italy was requested, is what Abeoell said the attorney representing
Hunter Biden. Now, the record suggests that the embassy officials
were uneasy.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
About Hunter Biden's request.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
According to the newspaper, one official wrote, I wanted to
be careful about promising too much. Why because they knew
that probably what they were doing was like you know,
like actually against the law and could get them in trouble.
A White House spokesman told The New York Times for
their big exclusive story that they have apparently set on
for year years that the President was not aware when
(12:04):
when he was vice president, that his son had reached
out to the embassy on Baristhma's behalf. By the way,
this is the same White House that told you that
this the father never spoke to his son about their
business dealings. We know that was a lie, So why
would you believe this lie now? Quote He's not in
business with his son. White House Pressemeretery Jean Pierre said
(12:25):
on Wednesday, He's certainly not aware of this, and this
is something that Hunter Biden has to speak to. He's
a private citizen. It is something for him to focus on.
Pressed on whether Biden was satisfied with how his son
conducted himself, the White House press Secretery told reporters, I
can't speak to this. This is something that is an
(12:46):
ongoing process. John Phillips, the US ambassador to Italy at
the time, said he received a lot of letters and
did not remember Hunter Biden reaching out to him.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yeah. Right.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You want me to believe that you, as the ambassador
to Italy, get an email or a letter from the
Vice president's son and you don't remember it. That is
what you call bs quote. I certainly would pay attention
to it if the younger Biden had contacted him, Phillips
told the newspaper out of courtesy, I'd probably make sure
(13:18):
he got a response of some sort, but not necessarily
from me. And I wouldn't even want to encourage it,
because I wouldn't get us involved in something like that.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Quote unquote.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
The ambassador is telling you, hey, that this is something
that never happen. This is something that we would never
allow to happen. This is something that would never would
never be done because of how bad it would look,
which is also then damning to the Biden administration and
the Biden crime family and Hunter Biden because this is
exactly what they were trying to do. So they're admitting
(13:50):
that this is in proper behavior by the President's son.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Now, they're going to tell you that the Barisma.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Project never materialized, and it's not clear whether the embassy
ever agreed to help the company. All Right, well, then
I want all the emails, I want all the documents
from the embassy during that time. And I have a
feeling that we were actually going to get something on
this because you have to understand, they're turning on the
(14:19):
president because they won him out of office and they
believe that Kamala Harris will have a much better chance
of winning on election day if she's already the acting
president of the United States of America. That is why
they're now turning on him as we speak now. Hunter
Biden's trial is also set to begin in Los Angeles
in September.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
What is involved in that case.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
They are alleging that there was a four year scheme
by Biden to avoid paying at least one point four
million in taxes during a time in which the president
son has acknowledged he was struggling with a drug addiction.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Right, that's the alibi that they'll use on this one.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Hunter Biden's lawyers have indicated they will argue at trial
that drug use affected his decision making and judgment to
the point that he was quote unable to form the
requisite intent to commit the crimes he's been charged with.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
So let me get this straight. The guy was sober.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Enough to be making more money than he's ever made
his entire life, millions of dollars coming in from Romania, Ukraine,
Russia and China. And he was doing all these business
deals and getting ten percent for the big guy, which
his dad. But now the argument in court is going
to be Hunter Biden was in such dire straits during
(15:38):
this time that he shouldn't have to be held accountable
for his actions. Those two timelines, unfortunately, don't make sense,
they don't add up, and they don't work. Hunter Biden's lawyers,
by the way, I've indicated, they will argue that at
trial that the quote drug use affected him in a
major way, and they will even use witnesses to basically
(16:00):
paint that picture. Now here's what you also need to remember.
Biden was convicted of three phony charges in a separate
case alleging that he lied on a mandatory gun purchase
for him in twenty eighteen by saying he was not
illegally using or addicted to drugs. He and theory could
face up twenty five years in prison at sentencing set
(16:22):
for November thirteenth in Wilmington, Delaware, but as a first
time offender, he's likely to get far less time or
avoid prison entirely. Now, Joe Biden is not going to
take a chance that his son ends up in jail,
in my opinion. But at the same time, if the
DOJ is coming after your son, that also is a
(16:46):
very clear message being sent to you that hey, we're
coming after you as well. They're not isolating him anymore.
That's the part you really need to understand. They were
only charging Hunter Biden with crimes that could not connect
him to the president, right, That's why they went after
(17:10):
the gun charge.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Had nothing to do with his dad.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
That's why they went after the tax charge the way
they did that had nothing to do with his dad. Now,
what all of this coming down is and this is
very very very very very very different. Okay, this is
extremely different. What is happening now is that they are
(17:34):
going after crimes that very much could be directly linked
and connected to the President of the United States of America.
And that's why I say, right now, I put the
odds fifty to fifty that Joe Biden resigns before January
the twentieth of next year, and the date they really
(17:56):
wanted to resign by is like yesterday. Because if they
can get him to resign and Harris becomes the president
of the United States of America, the chances that she
will win in November go up significantly. Now, let me
also just say I'm going to keep covering this, okay,
and we're going to watch it very closely, because this
(18:19):
is a story that is going to continue to unfold.
Except it's the Democrats who are in charge of this story,
not the Republicans. The Democrats and the DOJ are the
ones now that are really advocating for this happening, and
they want him gone. Keep watching, I'll keep telling you
(18:40):
how this unfolds. Now, I want to move on to
another important issue, and that is the issue of Bidenomics.
The White House today was trying to sell the American
people that things are actually a lot better than they
actually are, that it's not that bad, that you've just
(19:01):
got to get used to high prices, and that inflation
isn't that bad either. This comes as a new article
came out and again I'm shockingly, I'm shocked. I'm going
to say this, but The New York Times has an
article out and it says, quote, how food prices have
changed over the past four years, a central issue has
plagued the Biden administration for most of its term. The
(19:23):
New York Times writes, these steep rise and grocery prices.
Polls have consistently found that inflation remains a top concern
of voters, who have seen their budgets squeeze like never before.
A yugub poll published last month found that sixty four
percent of Americans in inflation was a very serious problem.
And when it comes to inflation, several surveys suggested that
(19:45):
Americans were most concerned about grocery prices. Despite the gloom
about grocery prices, food price increases have generally been cooling
for months. The Times claims on Wednesday, new data on
inflation for July will show if the trend has continued.
Guess what, The trend went in the wrong direction. Yes,
(20:10):
in the wrong direction. So they were trying to hedge
their bets. That didn't work. Another article has come out
saying states are now being forced to scramble to replace.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Gas tax cash.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
That's right, Pennsylvania drivers enjoy an unofficial substity for buying
an electric vehicle. When they skip the gas station, they
avoid the country's second highest gasoline tax. That's why people there,
many people there have bought evs. But that's about to change.
You ready for this, So if you got the EV,
(20:44):
then you're being good for the environment.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
You're about to get screwed.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
The lawmakers there voted overwhelmingly to impose a fee on
electric vehicles.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
So get your electric vehicle.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Right, and now we're going to charge you more to
have the electric vehicle that already costs more than an
average gas car. So yet again, the Democrats know how
to screw it up. The idea, they say, is to
make electric vehicles pay their fair share, something that Democrats
always love saying, right, you got to pay your fair
share right now, the rest of us subsidize their use
(21:18):
on our roads.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
So Pennsylvania's saying screw you.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Pennsylvania's EV fee will be two one hundred and fifty
dollars annually. Yes, it will be among the most expensive
in the country. Most states now levy a dedicated fee
on electric vehicle owners. Some also roll back their incentives,
such as New Jersey's decision this year to restart sales
tax on electric vehicles.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
That is something else they've decided to do.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
And places like Maryland are coming down with heavy fees.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Now here's the other thing.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
You put that in with the Biden administration, and people
are going to be mad because they were told go
buy an EV, go buy an EV MeV and many
did it because of the savings. Right, the incentives. Now
all the incentives have just disappeared. So they lied to you.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Again.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
They lied to you. They straight up lied to you.
Now let's go to the White House and talk about
what's happening there today. White House had a press conference
on inflation. The numbers went in the wrong direction. What
(22:33):
did the White House say, Bernstein?
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Listen, White House at this point think that the inflation
problem is solved. The momentum is certainly in the right direction.
Inflation is reliably coming down.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
We that's just not true.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
The momentum is certainly in the right direction, inflation is
reliably coming down.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
That is a lie. The data says that that is
a lie.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
White House is Bernstein was asked another question about the economy.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Listen to this.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Another thing he also just said was my policies are working.
Speaker 5 (23:09):
There's one to be stoft planning.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Start writing that way?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
Do you know if he feels that the economic coverage
has generally been.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Off or wrong?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Well, what do you think he meant by start writing
that way? I'm not I mean, that's the first I've
heard that he said that. I can only interpret it,
you know, to mean that he thinks that that's not
being done.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Do you think.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Do I think what specifically.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
That covers the economy?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
As you know, I don't know one way or the other.
I read a lot of your work and I see
stuff I like and stuff that doesn't resonate with me
as much. There's been some nice research on this over
at the Brookings Institute. My former colleague Ben Harris and
others have looked at the extent to which reporting has
been increasingly negative on the economy, and they find, and
(23:56):
they're crunching some real numbers, that that's been the case.
There was another study that I found pretty well, looked
to me that was pretty rigorous that suggested that the
media tends to write about the gas price when it
goes north of three fifty and not when it goes
south of three fifty. So the gas price as I
looked this morning, was I think three forty five. And
if you haven't written about it, you know, maybe you
(24:17):
want to.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
I love this right there, he's basically talking down the media, like, hey,
do your damn job and sell that gas is three
forty five instead of three point fifty, and that's good news.
I want you to think about where we were when
Donald Trump left the presidency. We were in the dollar
and change range, not at three point fifty or, as
(24:41):
he said, at three forty five. So write about it,
right That's the demand from the White House. The White
House Press Secretary was asked the question about bidnomics, and
here's what she said is she got snippy as well.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
When did you.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Guys learn that Vice President Harris wants to distance herself
from Bidenomics?
Speaker 5 (25:00):
Why do you think that.
Speaker 6 (25:01):
Axios is now reporting that she is hoping to distance
herself from President Biden's unpopularity on the economy? Can you
blame her?
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Do you know this is the Biden Harris administration? Are
you aware that this is the Biden Harris administration? She
is indeed the Vice president.
Speaker 6 (25:16):
What if the president's policies on the economy were working,
or if they were popular.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
And we used to lead.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
They literally just had this the chair of the CEA
here who laid out a pretty pretty robust point by
point about the economy and what has happened under the
Biden Harris administration. And I thought it was pretty convincing.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
And I thought it was pretty convincing. You noticed she
didn't answer the question that was asked. Now, Joe Biden
has come out today and he wants you to know
that we have beaten inflation.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Is there any stats to back that up?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
No, but this is what Biden said.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Yes, yes, yes, I told her to have a soft
land We're going to have a soft landing.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
My policies at work, and start writing that way. Okay,
start writing that way.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Has the US beat inflation, mister president, Yes, yes, yes,
we beat inflation. I told you were going to have
a soft landing. My policies are working, right it that way.
That is an unhinged president right there. So you look
at all of this data, you look at the questions
that are now having that are being asked. They're really
(26:29):
hammering Joe Biden. I think part of this is to
separate Kamala Harris. Now she shouldn't be separated from this.
The White House also being asked that question I mentioned earlier,
the question about Hunter Biden seeking help on this Parisma deal. Notice,
this is the mainstream media asking the question.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Grein the New York Times is reporting that Hunter Biden
sought help from a US ambassador on behalf of Arisma
Lung company's board and while Biden was vice pressing. So
let's Biden's reaction to this and is concerned about what
this looks like to the American public.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
So I'll just report I'm sorry, I just have to
laugh at this.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I love that a ABC News senior White House correspondent
Wang who just asked that question, is like, and is
the president worried about how this looks to the American people?
Where the hell was this question last year or the
year before, or the year before that, or three months ago,
four months ago, or nine months ago or twelve months ago.
Like you didn't have the kons to ask the damn
(27:27):
question for the last three years, but now that you're
wanting to dismiss him and you need him to step
down before election day to help Kamwa Harris, You're now
willing to ask the tough question and listen to Jean
Pierre's response because this is shocking for her that she's
even having to deal with this because the media has
always protected her.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
Or what I've said before is that the president has never,
has never done business with his son, and he was
not aware of this. And for anything further, I would
have to refer you to Hunter Biden's representative personal representatives.
I can't speak beyond that. But again I've said this before.
The President was done in business with his son and
(28:10):
this is the first time, as the first time he
was aware of this. And for anything further, you'd have
to reach out to Biden.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
I love it, right, Oh, I just got to reach out. Okay,
we'll move on next. I'll say it again, this election
with Donald Trump needs to be very focused on the economy.
It is the economy stupid, is what they need to
be selling to the American people every day.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Number one.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Number two, I really do believe there is a fifty
percent chance, now a fifty percent chance, that Joe Biden
is not the President of the United States of America
for that much longer because they are now trying to
get rid of him, and they're using all of his
corruption as the beverage to do it. Make sure you
(29:02):
share this podcast with your family and your friends. Please,
wherever you get your podcasts, share it and also write
us a five story view.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
It helps us reach more people. And I'll see you
back here tomorrow
I want to start by just saying one thing that
makes me incredibly angry, and I.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Want you guys to go check it out.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
I put it up on social media because it's important
that you see this. There is a new video that
is out and images that have been put out on
social media that the Taliban has well sanctioned parading at
Bogram Air Force Base. You know where we used to be, yeah,
(00:29):
in Afghanistan. Biden abandoned that air Force base in favor
of conducting the evacuation in the crowded city of Kabul
that cost Americans their lives and countless people that have
helped American soldiers their lives when we abandon them and
left them behind.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
That's number one, Okay.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Number two, they are parading at Bogram Airbase all of
the military equipment that we left behind, including a significant
number of armored vehicles. Now, if we were smart, we
would have at least blown them up. There were arguments
overwhell it would have cost too much to shift them
(01:11):
all back to America. So a lot of them were
at their life and we heard the excuses from Biden
and Harris. You look at these pictures and you tell
me that these armored vehicles are there at the end
of their life.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
These machines of war.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Right, the Democrats love to talk about because when you
witness what the Taliban is doing in their Taliban gear,
in American vehicles as far as the eye can see,
stacked row after rows, side by side by side by side,
parading through Bagram Airbase where that we created, that we built,
(01:46):
and then we left it because Biden Harris, they wanted
to say, we're the ones that ended the longest war
in American history on the anniversary of nine to eleven.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Right, that's all that mattered to them.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
They didn't care if American troops got killed in the process.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
They didn't They didn't care about any of it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
And now we are watching them fly helicopters and hundreds
and hundreds of armored vehicles going down the runways at
Bograam Air Base in a parade.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Look at this video and look at the level.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Of incompetency, because mark my word, in my lifetime, we're
going to have to go back to the Middle East
to deal with these terrorists. We are, it's just going
to happen, and accept the problem and the difference this
time is going to be this We're going to be
fighting against them in some capacity, are bombing them in
some capacity with our damn equipment that we left behind
(02:42):
because of these incompetent idiots in this administration. Go look
at the video I just posted up on social media.
Ben Ferguson Podcast on Instagram, Ben Ferguson's Show on x
and on Facebook.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I'll put it everywhere. I just had to get that
off my chest.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And we've got a lot of other news talk about,
including things to deal with the economy and some shocking
numbers there out under Biden Harris and their economic conditions
going into this election.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
We're also going to talk.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
About Hunter Biden and now how the media seems to
be trying to blackmail President Joe Biden into resigning. I'll
give that to you in a moment, But first, we
are quickly approaching the one year anniversary of the horrific
Commas attacks on Israel, and still the Holy Land continues
to be attacked on multiple fronts. There deadly threats are
(03:33):
increasing in northern Israel as we speak. There are constant
rocket attacks from Hesbla that have been fired at Israel,
causing widespread damage, with raging wildfires destroying precious farmland. All
of this being done because of Iran. Since the war started,
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on
(03:53):
the forefront of Israel, addressing the needs of the most
vulnerable now and they need our help like never before.
That's why I'm proud to partner with IFCJ, because your
life saving donation is helping provide emergency food as well
as critical security needs such as flag jackets, firefighting equipment,
(04:14):
armored vehicles, armored ambulances, bomb shelters, and much more. We
are looking for five hundred of you to join the
Fellowship and met by donating one hundred and fifty dollars
to meet these urgent security needs and things. To a
generous IFCJ supporter, your gift will be matched, doubling your
(04:38):
impact in the Holy Land. If you are proud to
stand with Israel, they need all of our help right now.
To make your gift, you can do it by calling
them eight eight four eight eight IFCJ. That's eight and
eight four eight eight IFCJ. IFCJ is four three two
(04:58):
five on your phone or go online and you can
give securely there at SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's one word
support IFCJ dot org as Israel needs your support now
more than ever. All Right, So let's get on to
the issue. And the first one that I want to
(05:20):
get on your radar screen is this. There is a
very good chance, I think it's a fifty to fifty chance. Now, Okay,
I'm not kidding when I say this, a fifty fifty chance, okay,
that Joe Biden resigns before January. And the reason why
I say that is because it looks like Democrats are
(05:43):
trying to finish him off so that Kamwa Harris will
actually be the president of the United States of America
by election day. They believe that will help her become
president in the election and that people will like her
more if she's already seen as being the president of
the United States of America. Now, why do I believe
(06:05):
this is happening Because the Deep State and the government
under Harris's control obviously is turning now on Joe Biden.
Let me read you the headline that just broke from
the Associated Press. This isn't Fox News, this is the
Associated Press. Hunter Biden reportedly sought US government help for
(06:25):
Ukrainian gas company Barisma Now, this article by the AP
could have been written literally years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
It was not because they needed to protect Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
But now the media has turned on him because they
want to get rid of him so that Kamala Harris
has the best chance of winning. So now the Associated
Press is willing to write an article that they've been
sitting on for years. Let me read you the first
couple paragraphs from the Associated Press.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Again, this isn't Fox News.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Hunter Biden asked the US ambassador to Italy for help
regarding an energy project a Ukrainian gas company was pursuing
while his father was the Vice president.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
This according to The New York Times in.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Their new article that also came out just hours before.
And so now you're seeing the dominoes fall right. New
York Times reports it bammed the Associated presses all on this,
and then everybody else starts to pick it up.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Why is this all coordinated and this effort.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Happening because they want Joe Biden to leave office. The
second paragraph, Hunter Biden soned of President Joe Biden wrote
a letter to the ambassador in twenty sixteen seeking assistance
for Barisma, which have been working on a geothermal project
in Italy, the newspaper reported, citing newly release records and interviews.
(07:51):
Now why are they newly released just now? Why weren't
they released earlier? You and I both know why. Because
they had to protect Joe Biden at all costs. But
now that they've gotten rid of him in this soft coup,
they need him to be fully kicked out of office,
to resign so that Kama Harris again can be president.
(08:11):
The article goes on at the time Hunter Biden said
on the board of Barrisma, which was having trouble getting
regulatory approval for the major project. A businessman involved in
the project told the newspaper the revelation is likely to
fuel Republican criticism of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings. By
the way, I love how they say this like it's
going to be new. This is what we already knew that.
(08:34):
Now the government is just admitting it and the papers
are now reporting on it to put more pressure on
the president Joe Biden to leave office sooner than was expected.
This is not fueling new Republican criticism. We've already knew
this was going on. We know that Republicans have been
(08:55):
telling the story of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings, which
have been the same by the way of GOP investigations
into the Presence family, which of course the media said
was fake news and they refuse to what cover it
until now now. This report also comes weeks before Hunter
Biden is set to stand trial on federal charges alleging
(09:16):
he failed to pay taxes on money he received from
Barisma and other foreign businesses. The story that I'm breaking
right now in Hunter Biden and the timing of this
is also just like epically hilarious because it just tells
you how corrupt the media is. They will lie to
(09:39):
your face, they will cover up terrible, terrible political sins,
they can even use it to blackmail you, and then
when it's convenient, they will then report stories as they
move on to the next powerbroker, which is clearly now
Kamala Harris. How do I know this, Well, look at
(09:59):
the the other story that I told you about on
the show.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I think it was on Friday of last week.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Prosecutors indicated this is the government, the deep State, turning
on Joe Biden last week in court papers that they
want to introduce evidence at trial about Hunter Biden's other
business dealings, including an arrangement with a Romanian businessman who
is quote trying to influence US government policy during Joe
(10:25):
Biden's term as Vice president. Now, why is the government
right now out of nowhere, all of a sudden like.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Doing their job. They're not doing their job.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
They just need to get Kamala Harris to become the
president before election day. And the person that's standing in
their way is Joe Biden. That's what this comes down to.
That's what this boils down to. And this is exactly
why at this point, I bet you Joe Biden is
regretting his decision to say I'm not going to run
for re election because look at how fast it turns
(10:56):
into the hunger Games for his survival now Hunter, Biden's
lawyer said his client's outreach to the ambassador on behalf
of Barisma was quote a proper request, and that he
asked various people to help arrange an introduction between Barisma
and the president of Italy's Tuscany region.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
No meeting occurred, no project materialized, no requests for anything
in the US was ever sought, and only an introduction
Italy was requested, is what Abeoell said the attorney representing
Hunter Biden. Now, the record suggests that the embassy officials
were uneasy.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
About Hunter Biden's request.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
According to the newspaper, one official wrote, I wanted to
be careful about promising too much. Why because they knew
that probably what they were doing was like you know,
like actually against the law and could get them in trouble.
A White House spokesman told The New York Times for
their big exclusive story that they have apparently set on
for year years that the President was not aware when
(12:04):
when he was vice president, that his son had reached
out to the embassy on Baristhma's behalf. By the way,
this is the same White House that told you that
this the father never spoke to his son about their
business dealings. We know that was a lie, So why
would you believe this lie now? Quote He's not in
business with his son. White House Pressemeretery Jean Pierre said
(12:25):
on Wednesday, He's certainly not aware of this, and this
is something that Hunter Biden has to speak to. He's
a private citizen. It is something for him to focus on.
Pressed on whether Biden was satisfied with how his son
conducted himself, the White House press Secretery told reporters, I
can't speak to this. This is something that is an
(12:46):
ongoing process. John Phillips, the US ambassador to Italy at
the time, said he received a lot of letters and
did not remember Hunter Biden reaching out to him.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yeah. Right.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You want me to believe that you, as the ambassador
to Italy, get an email or a letter from the
Vice president's son and you don't remember it. That is
what you call bs quote. I certainly would pay attention
to it if the younger Biden had contacted him, Phillips
told the newspaper out of courtesy, I'd probably make sure
(13:18):
he got a response of some sort, but not necessarily
from me. And I wouldn't even want to encourage it,
because I wouldn't get us involved in something like that.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Quote unquote.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
The ambassador is telling you, hey, that this is something
that never happen. This is something that we would never
allow to happen. This is something that would never would
never be done because of how bad it would look,
which is also then damning to the Biden administration and
the Biden crime family and Hunter Biden because this is
exactly what they were trying to do. So they're admitting
(13:50):
that this is in proper behavior by the President's son.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Now, they're going to tell you that the Barisma.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Project never materialized, and it's not clear whether the embassy
ever agreed to help the company. All Right, well, then
I want all the emails, I want all the documents
from the embassy during that time. And I have a
feeling that we were actually going to get something on
this because you have to understand, they're turning on the
(14:19):
president because they won him out of office and they
believe that Kamala Harris will have a much better chance
of winning on election day if she's already the acting
president of the United States of America. That is why
they're now turning on him as we speak now. Hunter
Biden's trial is also set to begin in Los Angeles
in September.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
What is involved in that case.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
They are alleging that there was a four year scheme
by Biden to avoid paying at least one point four
million in taxes during a time in which the president
son has acknowledged he was struggling with a drug addiction.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Right, that's the alibi that they'll use on this one.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Hunter Biden's lawyers have indicated they will argue at trial
that drug use affected his decision making and judgment to
the point that he was quote unable to form the
requisite intent to commit the crimes he's been charged with.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
So let me get this straight. The guy was sober.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Enough to be making more money than he's ever made
his entire life, millions of dollars coming in from Romania, Ukraine,
Russia and China. And he was doing all these business
deals and getting ten percent for the big guy, which
his dad. But now the argument in court is going
to be Hunter Biden was in such dire straits during
(15:38):
this time that he shouldn't have to be held accountable
for his actions. Those two timelines, unfortunately, don't make sense,
they don't add up, and they don't work. Hunter Biden's lawyers,
by the way, I've indicated, they will argue that at
trial that the quote drug use affected him in a
major way, and they will even use witnesses to basically
(16:00):
paint that picture. Now here's what you also need to remember.
Biden was convicted of three phony charges in a separate
case alleging that he lied on a mandatory gun purchase
for him in twenty eighteen by saying he was not
illegally using or addicted to drugs. He and theory could
face up twenty five years in prison at sentencing set
(16:22):
for November thirteenth in Wilmington, Delaware, but as a first
time offender, he's likely to get far less time or
avoid prison entirely. Now, Joe Biden is not going to
take a chance that his son ends up in jail,
in my opinion. But at the same time, if the
DOJ is coming after your son, that also is a
(16:46):
very clear message being sent to you that hey, we're
coming after you as well. They're not isolating him anymore.
That's the part you really need to understand. They were
only charging Hunter Biden with crimes that could not connect
him to the president, right, That's why they went after
(17:10):
the gun charge.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Had nothing to do with his dad.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
That's why they went after the tax charge the way
they did that had nothing to do with his dad. Now,
what all of this coming down is and this is
very very very very very very different. Okay, this is
extremely different. What is happening now is that they are
(17:34):
going after crimes that very much could be directly linked
and connected to the President of the United States of America.
And that's why I say, right now, I put the
odds fifty to fifty that Joe Biden resigns before January
the twentieth of next year, and the date they really
(17:56):
wanted to resign by is like yesterday. Because if they
can get him to resign and Harris becomes the president
of the United States of America, the chances that she
will win in November go up significantly. Now, let me
also just say I'm going to keep covering this, okay,
and we're going to watch it very closely, because this
(18:19):
is a story that is going to continue to unfold.
Except it's the Democrats who are in charge of this story,
not the Republicans. The Democrats and the DOJ are the
ones now that are really advocating for this happening, and
they want him gone. Keep watching, I'll keep telling you
(18:40):
how this unfolds. Now, I want to move on to
another important issue, and that is the issue of Bidenomics.
The White House today was trying to sell the American
people that things are actually a lot better than they
actually are, that it's not that bad, that you've just
(19:01):
got to get used to high prices, and that inflation
isn't that bad either. This comes as a new article
came out and again I'm shockingly, I'm shocked. I'm going
to say this, but The New York Times has an
article out and it says, quote, how food prices have
changed over the past four years, a central issue has
plagued the Biden administration for most of its term. The
(19:23):
New York Times writes, these steep rise and grocery prices.
Polls have consistently found that inflation remains a top concern
of voters, who have seen their budgets squeeze like never before.
A yugub poll published last month found that sixty four
percent of Americans in inflation was a very serious problem.
And when it comes to inflation, several surveys suggested that
(19:45):
Americans were most concerned about grocery prices. Despite the gloom
about grocery prices, food price increases have generally been cooling
for months. The Times claims on Wednesday, new data on
inflation for July will show if the trend has continued.
Guess what, The trend went in the wrong direction. Yes,
(20:10):
in the wrong direction. So they were trying to hedge
their bets. That didn't work. Another article has come out
saying states are now being forced to scramble to replace.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Gas tax cash.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
That's right, Pennsylvania drivers enjoy an unofficial substity for buying
an electric vehicle. When they skip the gas station, they
avoid the country's second highest gasoline tax. That's why people there,
many people there have bought evs. But that's about to change.
You ready for this, So if you got the EV,
(20:44):
then you're being good for the environment.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
You're about to get screwed.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
The lawmakers there voted overwhelmingly to impose a fee on
electric vehicles.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
So get your electric vehicle.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Right, and now we're going to charge you more to
have the electric vehicle that already costs more than an
average gas car. So yet again, the Democrats know how
to screw it up. The idea, they say, is to
make electric vehicles pay their fair share, something that Democrats
always love saying, right, you got to pay your fair
share right now, the rest of us subsidize their use
(21:18):
on our roads.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
So Pennsylvania's saying screw you.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Pennsylvania's EV fee will be two one hundred and fifty
dollars annually. Yes, it will be among the most expensive
in the country. Most states now levy a dedicated fee
on electric vehicle owners. Some also roll back their incentives,
such as New Jersey's decision this year to restart sales
tax on electric vehicles.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
That is something else they've decided to do.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
And places like Maryland are coming down with heavy fees.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Now here's the other thing.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
You put that in with the Biden administration, and people
are going to be mad because they were told go
buy an EV, go buy an EV MeV and many
did it because of the savings. Right, the incentives. Now
all the incentives have just disappeared. So they lied to you.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Again.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
They lied to you. They straight up lied to you.
Now let's go to the White House and talk about
what's happening there today. White House had a press conference
on inflation. The numbers went in the wrong direction. What
(22:33):
did the White House say, Bernstein?
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Listen, White House at this point think that the inflation
problem is solved. The momentum is certainly in the right direction.
Inflation is reliably coming down.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
We that's just not true.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
The momentum is certainly in the right direction, inflation is
reliably coming down.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
That is a lie. The data says that that is
a lie.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
White House is Bernstein was asked another question about the economy.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Listen to this.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Another thing he also just said was my policies are working.
Speaker 5 (23:09):
There's one to be stoft planning.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Start writing that way?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
Do you know if he feels that the economic coverage
has generally been.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Off or wrong?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Well, what do you think he meant by start writing
that way? I'm not I mean, that's the first I've
heard that he said that. I can only interpret it,
you know, to mean that he thinks that that's not
being done.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Do you think.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Do I think what specifically.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
That covers the economy?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
As you know, I don't know one way or the other.
I read a lot of your work and I see
stuff I like and stuff that doesn't resonate with me
as much. There's been some nice research on this over
at the Brookings Institute. My former colleague Ben Harris and
others have looked at the extent to which reporting has
been increasingly negative on the economy, and they find, and
(23:56):
they're crunching some real numbers, that that's been the case.
There was another study that I found pretty well, looked
to me that was pretty rigorous that suggested that the
media tends to write about the gas price when it
goes north of three fifty and not when it goes
south of three fifty. So the gas price as I
looked this morning, was I think three forty five. And
if you haven't written about it, you know, maybe you
(24:17):
want to.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
I love this right there, he's basically talking down the media, like, hey,
do your damn job and sell that gas is three
forty five instead of three point fifty, and that's good news.
I want you to think about where we were when
Donald Trump left the presidency. We were in the dollar
and change range, not at three point fifty or, as
(24:41):
he said, at three forty five. So write about it,
right That's the demand from the White House. The White
House Press Secretary was asked the question about bidnomics, and
here's what she said is she got snippy as well.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
When did you.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Guys learn that Vice President Harris wants to distance herself
from Bidenomics?
Speaker 5 (25:00):
Why do you think that.
Speaker 6 (25:01):
Axios is now reporting that she is hoping to distance
herself from President Biden's unpopularity on the economy? Can you
blame her?
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Do you know this is the Biden Harris administration? Are
you aware that this is the Biden Harris administration? She
is indeed the Vice president.
Speaker 6 (25:16):
What if the president's policies on the economy were working,
or if they were popular.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
And we used to lead.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
They literally just had this the chair of the CEA
here who laid out a pretty pretty robust point by
point about the economy and what has happened under the
Biden Harris administration. And I thought it was pretty convincing.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
And I thought it was pretty convincing. You noticed she
didn't answer the question that was asked. Now, Joe Biden
has come out today and he wants you to know
that we have beaten inflation.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Is there any stats to back that up?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
No, but this is what Biden said.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Yes, yes, yes, I told her to have a soft
land We're going to have a soft landing.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
My policies at work, and start writing that way. Okay,
start writing that way.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Has the US beat inflation, mister president, Yes, yes, yes,
we beat inflation. I told you were going to have
a soft landing. My policies are working, right it that way.
That is an unhinged president right there. So you look
at all of this data, you look at the questions
that are now having that are being asked. They're really
(26:29):
hammering Joe Biden. I think part of this is to
separate Kamala Harris. Now she shouldn't be separated from this.
The White House also being asked that question I mentioned earlier,
the question about Hunter Biden seeking help on this Parisma deal. Notice,
this is the mainstream media asking the question.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Grein the New York Times is reporting that Hunter Biden
sought help from a US ambassador on behalf of Arisma
Lung company's board and while Biden was vice pressing. So
let's Biden's reaction to this and is concerned about what
this looks like to the American public.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
So I'll just report I'm sorry, I just have to
laugh at this.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I love that a ABC News senior White House correspondent
Wang who just asked that question, is like, and is
the president worried about how this looks to the American people?
Where the hell was this question last year or the
year before, or the year before that, or three months ago,
four months ago, or nine months ago or twelve months ago.
Like you didn't have the kons to ask the damn
(27:27):
question for the last three years, but now that you're
wanting to dismiss him and you need him to step
down before election day to help Kamwa Harris, You're now
willing to ask the tough question and listen to Jean
Pierre's response because this is shocking for her that she's
even having to deal with this because the media has
always protected her.
Speaker 5 (27:48):

was aware of this. And for anything further, you'd have

Speaker 1 (28:39):

corruption as the beverage to do it. Make sure you
