Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, where I'm coming to see his information on freaking
news and more bold inspired solutions for America. All right,

(00:21):
thank you Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you
for being with us. Eight hundred and nine four one Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program.
It's still a little horse today. Linda's making me drink
this disgusting tea with honey in it. But you know,
it goes in and out a little bit. To be honest,
at first, it makes me a little my my throat
more raspy um. I feel one hundred percent fine. It

(00:43):
is a nasal drip issue. It is not any other issue.
Let me get that out of the way, and I
feel great. It just doesn't sound great at times. It's
it's kind of opening up now, a little bit bit
of closes and then opens up again, so we'll see
what happens. Anyway, thanks for being with us, toll free.
It's eight hundret nine one Sean. We had Kevin McCarthy

(01:04):
on Hannity last night. Now, Swalwell is off the Intel
Committee as he promised, and shift the congenital liar is
off for lying that was the reason you shouldn't have
been on the Intel Committee to begin with, and Swalwell,
of course, has this issue with this friend of his
called Fang. Fang. Can't make this up in a novel

(01:26):
if I'm beginning to write one now. The House has
just booted Congresswoman Omar off the House Foreign Affairs Committee
after a majority of her colleagues voted to remove her
by a vote of two eighteen to two eleven. That
took place in the House. She says, is anyone surprised

(01:47):
I am being targeted? She said in at times what
was an emotional speech on the floor earlier today, which
was attended by large numbers of House Democratic Caucus cheering
her remarks, Is anyone surprised that I am somehow d
aemed unworthy to speak about American foreign policy, or that
they see me as a powerful voice that needs to
be silenced. Frankly, it is expected, because when you push power,

(02:11):
power pushes back. Well, it would be nice if that's
what this is about, but it's not. And the precedent
that was set, remember Jim Jordan and Jim Banks were
kicked off the January sixth committee. And by the way,
we have some pretty big, big news regarding that that
it seems that nobody wants to talk about. But I
consider it very big news. And that is Lester Holt

(02:33):
at NBC Nightly News. He introduced a segment Tuesday night.
I didn't know about it till today, that deed, because
I don't watch Nightly. I don't trust NBC. That's my
bottom line. Anyway, The detailed federal law enforcement agencies failures
in the lead up to the January sixth riot at
the Capitol. Well, wait a minute, you mean when I

(02:56):
was calling for and asking the committee. I know they
wanted to pound of flush against Trump and blamed Trump, Trump, Trump,
But they never wanted to talk to the Capitol police
chief who requested the guard six separate times. They never
talked to the Sergeant at arms or Nancy Pelosi. They
didn't ask for their text they didn't ask for their emails,
they didn't ask for their phone records. They didn't ask

(03:19):
Muriel Bowser why she'd declined the National Guard, you know,
at a whole cloth, why did she do that? But anyway,
in this segment, NBC News echoed criticisms and concerns that
we conservatives have expressed since the attack occurred. Now to
our NBC exclusive. The January six Committee's final report was
more than eight hundred pages. You can buy an autograph

(03:41):
copy or you could from Adam Kinziger because he was
sending before he got hired by fake News CNN. Anyway,
material did not make the cut, including much of their
findings on the failures of law enforcement and what intelligence
they had in the lead up to January sixth. Oh,
stuff that we were talking about. I remember, if you
might remember, recall the Capitol police chief first said there

(04:04):
was no intelligence that indicated there was going to be
any kind of trouble, and he said, we don't need
the National Guard at that point. Just a day later
he changed his mind based on an intelligence briefing. Oh,
amazing stuff. Anyway. So the images, for example, and Lesterholt said,
the images of the attack on the Capitol stunned America

(04:25):
of the world. Tonight and an exclusive interview, the chief
investigator for the January sixth Committee says that the government
could have prevented it. Oh, why didn't they do that? Why?
Why z irresponsible? Zera rats? Why it's irresponsible anyway. NBC
News correspondent reporting that the former lead investigator for the

(04:49):
committee told NBC if intelligence agencies acted on the information
that they had, they could have prevented the capital riot
from occurring. Law enforcement had a very direct role in
contributing to the real failures and the failures that led
to the violence. Well, that's a whole different, you know,
set of facts that nobody in the mob now that

(05:10):
it's all over, the show trial is all over. That
they wanted to mention. By the way, FBI is to
search Mike Pence's home. This is an agreement they made
in Indiana for more classified materials. My understanding is Mike
Pence initiated this investigation on his own after the many
reports came out. I would not expect that they find

(05:31):
anything else there. But that's happening. Nobody's going to get
in trouble for that. I don't believe. If you're asking
me where the vulnerabilities are for the Biden family, it
would be about money. It would be about deals they
made with foreign countries. And we have a lot of
questions that need to be answered. I'll give you a

(05:52):
few of them. You know, when Zero experienced Hunter, he
went on Good Morning America, you might recall, and he
can farmed. He had no experience in the oil and
gas industry, the energy industry, He had no experience in Ukraine. Nope, nope, nope,
no experience done whatsoever. Then he was asked whether he
would have been selected to serve on the Barisma board

(06:15):
and be paid all this money if he had had
a different last name. It is probably not. I don't know,
probably not. I don't think there's a lot of things
that would have happened in my life if my last
name wasn't Biden. Does that explain why Barisma would pay
Hunter millions with no relevant life experience. What don't you

(06:36):
like that deal? And doesn't it shed light on Joe Biden?
I think he was before. I think it was before
the counsel on farm relations. But I've shown the video
enough of Joe Biden bragging you're not getting a billion dollars.
You're not going to get it. This is I believe
loan guarantees taxpayer dollars. And unless you fire that prosecutor,

(06:56):
why would a vice president want to fire a prosecutor
in Ukraine? Doesn't make sense, does it? Until you find
out this guy Shoken investigating Barisma and his son Hunter.
But where to believe? And remember they were paying a
millions of dollars and he admits he has no experience.
So that has to be answered that question, because you know,

(07:17):
remember the big deal we have President Trump impeached over
a quid in a pro and a quote that they
said existed when he was asking the new president Zelinski
if he was going to be like his predecessors or
be a better steward of the moneies that the United
States of America and its taxpayers are giving to the country,
which was a fair question. I want our president, our

(07:41):
Congress to be good stewards with our money. Anyway, So
during this March sixteen visit to Ukraine, you know, Biden
says he ordered the Ukrainian president. This is according to
Congress dot gov. You can find it yourself one sixteen
meeting House one one O three three one documents. Anyway,

(08:02):
that during this visit to Ukraine in twenty sixteen, that
president in Biden, it wasn't president then, but Vice President
Biden at the time ordered Ukrainian President Poorishenko to fire
Victor Shokin at the same time that Hunter was being
paid and on the board of this Ukrainian energy company, Parisma. Now,

(08:25):
if the president refused, Biden said that he'd put the
one billion in foreign aid. You know, he would pull
the one billion in foreign aid from Ukraine or maybe
loan guarantees. The prosecutor was fired. Son of it be
they did it. You got about six hours, six hours,
Joe said. Should a vice president ever leverage taxpayer dollars

(08:49):
to demand a foreign prosecutor or official be fired? Or
is that a quid pro quo? Now? Those are questions
that I think Hunter and his legal team need to
start answering. We have been reaching out. I talked to
my staff on TV today. I said, how often because
I knew we as general practice when we cover stories,

(09:11):
we reach out to the other side all the time,
standard operating procedure. How often do we reach out to
Hunters people to give a response on these questions? They
said every time, every time a new big story came up.
In a January This according to The New York Post.

(09:33):
In a January twenty nineteen text to his daughter Naomi,
Hunter wrote that, unlike Pop, I won't make you give
me half of your salary. Is he accusing his father
of taking half of his salary? Does that mean that
he was paying his father when he said that that
was on the laptop from Hell? I think we need

(09:53):
an answer on that question. Now there is some question.
You know, there was a letter from I guess one
of Hunter's new lawyers, saying, we write on behalf of
our client, Robert Hunter Biden, to request an investigation into
the following individuals for whom there is considerable reason to
believe violated various federal laws and accessing, copying, manipulating, and

(10:15):
or disseminating mister Biden's personal computer data, says the letter.
Now in that letter when he says his personal computer data,
are they the lawyers acknowledging that the laptop from Hell
is real? Because I was watching Fox earlier today and

(10:35):
it says the lawyers are not acknowledging that's Hunter's laptop.
So if that's their position, I think we need clarification
because is this tweet in other words, as the New
York Post and quoting this laptop in January twenty nineteen,
unlike pop, I won't give you, I won't make you

(10:55):
give me half your salary? Was he given money to Joe?
Now we know Joe Biden made the claim repeatedly during
the campaign that he never ever had a conversation with
his son Hunter about his foreign business dealings. Now we
have photographs with Hunter, Joe and some of his business partners.
We have minutes of meetings. Has been confirmed by numerous sources.

(11:19):
New York Post included you know. For example, The Daily
Mail reported that documents from the laptop appear to indicate
Hunters Hunter paid his father's phone bill and spend thousands
of dollars on home improvement supplies and projects for his
father's home in Delaware. I think we can ask the

(11:39):
question I don't know the answer. Number one is that true.
Number two is how much? If it is true, how
much did Hunter spent on his father's expenses? Did the
Daily Mail get that story right? According to the New
York Post, this was on six twenty two. Friends of

(12:00):
Hunters say that he discusses the finer points of Ukraine
policy and other matters of state around the dinner table
with his father. Aside from serving on the board of
Barisma and Oil and Gas company, h what is his
life experience that warrants millions of dollars? And the same
questions can be made about. For example, you can go

(12:23):
to the Finance dot Senate dot gov website you know
how how is Hunter Biden able to form a joint
venture with a state owned bank of China ten days
after accompanying then Vice President Joe Biden on an official
visit to China. Check out that information on Finance dot
Senate dot gov, dot slash, imo slash media slash document.

(12:44):
We'll put links up at different times. Um, how did
he spend one hundred thousand dollars? These are questions I
want to ask and I want to answer it. Is
it true that hunters Biden, according to Finance dot Senate
dot gov, was placed one hundred Graham was placed in
an account between him and CEFC executive Gongwin Dong. Is

(13:07):
his name? Is that accurate? That the money was used
for one hundred thousand dollars global spending spree with Jim
and Sarah Biden? Is that true? Is the finance dot
senate gov site we're accurate? What was expected in return
for the Chinese funding? If it is true, stay on
the same website. For what purpose did the former first

(13:29):
Lady of Moscow send hundred to three point five million
dollar wire transfer? Is it all so true? A New
York Post. This is ten seventeen twenty twenty two that
the former first Lady of Moscow invested one hundred to
two hundred million dollars in a real estate venture involving Hunter,
and what experience does Hunter have in real estate? Can

(13:53):
anyone confirm any of this? You know, I'm We're gonna
start sending over questions to get answers and see what
they say based on all of these reports and all
of these sources that we have impeccably put together eight
hundred nine for one, Shawn our number. If you want
to be a part of the program. You know, one

(14:14):
of the things we talk about often is whether or
not we have a dual justice system, you know, once
justice system for the Clintons and the Bidens and one
for say the Trump case. With all three cases, you
have top secret classified document issues, right, We know that,
And you know, one of the questions I have is,

(14:39):
so you know two months after go go to the timeline.
We know that the that we found that the Bidens
found top secret information at the Biden Penn Center or
the Penn Biden Center on November second, The midterm election
was on November eighth. Don't you think the right thing
to do would have been to inform the American people,

(15:00):
especially considering the August rate of Mara Lago, that this
had been discovered. And then when they finally went and
the FBI, why did they go to the Penn Biden
Center and why did they investigate not let us know?
We didn't know about the November second discovery for sixty

(15:21):
eight days. Now somebody has to answer, why is that,
you know, two weeks after more classified information, two months
after we had more classified information in Biden's garage and
his office at home ultimately in the home and the
Penn Biden Center and the garage ultimately really five different locations.
When the FBI two weeks more classified information, then they

(15:44):
let Joe go to the beach house ten days before
they search it. Why did they allow that to happen?
So what's in what's interesting about this is the this
Biden Gate scandal, if you will, and the National Archives. Now,
did they treat Trump the same way they treated Biden?

(16:07):
Apparently there was zero contact with Biden. And we're getting information,
our early information we haven't confirmed us fully yet is
that they did contact the Trump team a number of times.
But anyway, put that aside for a minute. We don't
know the full details. So anyway, now we have Oversight
Committee Chairman James Coomer told me on TV this week

(16:29):
that the Biden administration tried to block the National Archives
from issuing a press release after Joe Biden's first batch
of classified documents were discovered at the Penn Biden Center.
I argue that because the election was forthcoming, and because
of the big raid approved by Merrick Garland and Christopher
Ray themselves, because they bragged about it, that it would

(16:50):
have been the right thing to do would have been
to tell the American people that they found it at
the Penn Biden Center. They didn't tell us for sixty
eight days. In the interim they even set the FBI
went there, but there were no flashing lights, no guns drawn.
Wasn't a big deal like they made at Marlago anyway.
So Komer's statement on my show is based on testimony

(17:11):
apparently that he got yesterday. I'm sorry, the day before yesterday,
I believe, from the General Council to the National Archives
and guy by the name of Gary Stern, who I've
never heard of before. Stern refused to identify the Biden
official that ordered the Archives to participate in not giving
out this information to the public about this for sixty

(17:35):
eight days, especially before election day. In my view, that
would have been the right thing to do. Media reported
that Ian Sam, spokesperson for the White House Council's Office,
addressed Komer's revelation earlier today about a White House engineered
cover up at the National Archives. By the way, why
wouldn't they let the National Archives just give free answers

(17:56):
to the House Government Oversight Committee. Because of the job
of Congress as a check in balanced branch of government,
we have coequal branches a government would be to look
into issues like this anyway. So Ian Sam's for the
spokesperson with the White House Counsel's Office, addressed Comer's revelation
at the White House, and did anyone at the White

(18:17):
House at any point tell the National Archives in any
form that they could not release a press release about
the discovery of classified documents? The off camera reporter asks,
what do you what's the reference to this? Guy Sam's
asked for clarity from the White House Counsel's Office anyway, quote,

(18:39):
there is reporting that came from the Oversight Committee Chairman
James Comer. They can't mention on the Hannity program, Why
give me attribution anyway? Who says that in conversations with
the National Archives, they communicated what they were told. The
Archives was told that it could not release a press
release about the discovery of classified documents, And did anyone

(19:00):
at the White House tell them not to do that?
Your reporter asks, anyway, here's what Ian Sam said. It's
reporting the game from the House overs Activity Chairman James Komer,
who says that in his conversations with the National Archives,
they communicated that they were told The Archives was told
it could not release the press release at whatever point
it was about the discovery of PASSIFY documents, and anyone

(19:23):
the White House tell them not to do Yeah, I
don't know anything about that. If that's actually what he said,
it's probably better to ask the archive. If that's what
he said, it's probably best to ask the archivist. That
doesn't make sense to me anyway. So Ian Sam says
that if it's actually what he said, it's probably better
to ask them, or another reporter says, can you just

(19:46):
say because it was a yes or no? And Sam's
then says, I gave the answer to that question. He
shot back, but he didn't answer the question, then we've
got the same guy. Ian Sam's doesn't answer the question
if the FBI had searched and other Biden locations for
classified documents. Now, I have no idea at all, nor

(20:06):
does anybody in the public, of whether or not any
of Hunter Biden's residence is we're searched. We do know
that he at times was in the house where the
documents were found in the garage, and I guess the
office of Joe Biden. Not sure where the FBI found
more documents when they finally went in there, but that
means he would have had access to them when he

(20:28):
was in the house when he was there visiting, Hi, Dad,
how are you, and maybe taking that old Stingray corvette
out for a drive by the way, not to be
not to be compared in any way to the Corvette
Zeo six with the zero seven package. I gotta tell
you something. You know Rose's friend Jim Quinn from Quinn
and Rose. Yeah, I love Quinn, So he knows everything

(20:50):
about corvettes. He heard you talking, and he may have
a hook up. Okay, the lines are long for this.
Really he's got a hook up, so all right, so
let me just give you a little backstory. So I
want the zero seven package on the zero six Corvette.
Why because it's an all carb And I mean, this

(21:10):
is you're difficult, No your way. You think it's McDonalds.
But they had they announced the dealers. I was told
dealers were told that they wouldn't they would probably have
it within a few months back in July. Now, in
other words, the zero seven package on the Corvette zero six,

(21:31):
the new Corvette zeos. So did they come out. I
know nothing about the car, okay, just it's it's a
new model. Everybody wants us. Okay. So I did have
somebody that offered me a hook up, and I said no,
because that means my place in line I would be
jumping over other people and their place in line. A
matter of fact, I have this conversation yesterday. I can't

(21:52):
in good conscience do that. I don't think he means
you'd be jumping the line. I think he just knows
where the line is shortest. Well, if he knows where
the line's shortest, I'll put on a deposit, because I
have deposits all over the place. The stupid card. Now, well,
I wanted so sense ay and my other friend you
know the other one, and so they they're both motorheads,

(22:14):
total motorhead. They're freaking out over trying to get this car.
But you can't get the zero seven package for the
zero six yet, and when that's a maybe eight months,
you know, six seven, eight months, and like them, I'm
willing to wait for the zero seven package. Now you
can ask this if Jim Quinn, if you have any
potential of ever remembering any of this, because you have

(22:37):
no idea what I'm talking about. And I got the
black on black. I want the black on black package
with the red seat belts and the red breake fad
thingy whatever you call it, red breakpack thingy whatever, with
the red on the Zo seven on the Zeo six,
No zero six with a zero seven package. That's what

(22:57):
I said, the Zeo seven on the Zeo six, Yes,
the zero seven package on the zero six it's the
black on black and the red on the breaky thing
he got it, and the seat belt is red. Yeah,
but it's I mean, and the convertible got it. I
don't know why I love this car. I've never been
you get a blue dots in yeah, don't be mad

(23:17):
at me, Okay, because I'm writing, I'm doing my best here.
I'm doing my best work. We'll tell Jim I love him,
we miss him and Rose as well. We love a
big friend of the program. Anyway, So one other things,
So both the National Archives. This is according to CNS News,
they are saying the National Archives release seven statements about
Trump's documents but zero on Biden's. Then the question is why,

(23:41):
And then you put that together with this this guy
in the White House Counsel's Office, Ian Sam's who refused
to answer basic, simple, fundamental questions. We played some of
them yesterday. We just played a couple. Now, now, why
would the Archives? In other words, I want to know
why they're not asking Biden's team any of these questions.
I want to know who made the decision not to

(24:02):
inform the American people, and whether or not the Biden
administration was involved. I don't know the answer to the question,
but it's certainly relevant in light of the raid at
Mara Lago. And those that make the statement, well, Donald
Trump wasn't cooperating, well, they seem to have forgotten that
the FBI was already at Mara Lago in the storage

(24:22):
room where they ultimately during the raid found the classif
eyed documents, and they asked for and I just found
this out yesterday. They already had a lock on that door.
They asked for an additional lock to be put on
the door after they left. Now, if they saw things
there that they thought legally shouldn't belong there, why didn't
the FBI take it while they were there and say
you can't have this is it's illegal and walk out

(24:44):
with them. They would have had the authority to do that,
or go get a warrant that day and then come
back and get it. I don't know Biden's notes. This
is what we know about the Rohobic Beach House now.
And one question regarding this that I want to answer
to is why was Joe Biden allowed to go to
the Rohobath Beach House ten days before the FBI goes

(25:05):
to investigate it there? I mean, I don't know that
Raises I was born in New York. I'm suspicious by nature.
I don't trust everybody. Anyway, Biden's notes were seized but
by the FBI at his Rehobath Beach House. Now we
don't know for sure. They're claiming there was no classified information.
And I'll take them at their word on that. However,

(25:29):
in the medium mob couldn't wait to report that they
found no classified documents. Most of the reports failed to
mention that the FBI did seize other materials that were suspect.
I don't know in what way. For example, the Blaze
wrote it up this way that the President's personal attorney,
Bob Bauer, explained the DOJ's planned search of the President's
Rohobath's residences, conducted in coordination cooperation with the president's attorneys,

(25:52):
has concluded no documents with classified markings were found. He added,
consistent with the process in Wilmington, the DOJ took for
further reviews some materials and handwritten notes that appear to
relate to his time as vice president. That sounds very
lawyally to me. That sounds like a carefully worded statement

(26:12):
to me. Emphasizing agents found nothing would classified markings does
not exclude the possibility, does it. You tell me, those
of you listening, answering your own minds, what agents seized? Well,
why did they take anything if it was not classified?
I want an answer to that question. Anyway, Not every

(26:35):
dark document, parcel, classified information, handwritten notes carry the proper
markings indicating that it contains classified information. So you know,
I'd like to see one thing. Jonathan Turley has been
very good on this issue. Points out that the FBI
has pretty much sabotage any possible prosecution over Joe Biden's
issues with the handling or classified documents by delaying and

(26:56):
delaying their own searches until Biden's lawyers had had time
with this Prior to the quote, Charley says, the FBI
issued and all clear on the latest search of Biden's
other residents. This is the Rohoboth Beach House. Announcement came
with the first day of the Special Council Robert Hurr
on the job of the Justice Department. Her may find

(27:18):
that Biden's legal team feels that all clear extends beyond
the latest search. It could be challenging to make a
criminal case after how the investigation has been handled at
every stage. The FBI has adopted an approach that would
compromise or complicate any criminal charge. He said. The private
searches by Biden's lawyers went through these documents and moved

(27:39):
and potentially organized material despite being given the opportunity to
conduct and record the initial searches. The FBI will now
have to rely on the accounts of Private Council on
how these documents were originally left, including any visible classification markings,
meaning that the original conditions are lost in determining, for example,

(27:59):
if anyone in the vicinity could have seen a telltale
border classified jacket or whether a classified document was partially
a fully outside of a jacket quote. The FBI's decision
to allow uncleared Private Council to tread all over these
scenes created a nightmare of chain of custody. That's Jonathan Turley.
He's a Democrat. I think even it said that he
voted for Biden. So did he go for Biden? I

(28:23):
don't know if he did or he didn't, I don't remember.
But it raises questions. The biggest one we have equal
justice under the law. Do we have a dual justice
system anyway? Eight hundred nine four one Sean is our number.
If you want to be a part of the program.
Stretching long and hard to find my spot here. All right,
as we roll along, we're gonna check in with Ari Fleischer.

(28:45):
Media coverage, double standards in the law, application of our law,
coverage of varying issues, in the media mob. There's also
a case for following today and you're going to meet
a young man, Patrick Murphy, along with Jordan Sekulo, who'll
join us, the executive director of the ACLJ American Center
for Law Injustice, about how this group of pro life

(29:09):
students they all had on these very bright blue ski
hats with the Lady of Rosary and said their pro
life they were kicked out of the Smithsonian National Air
and Space Museum because they wore these hats inscribed by
the pro life message. By the way, taxpayers pay about
a billion dollars a year for that museum. All coming

(29:31):
up
