Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
All Right, News round Up, Information overload hour. Our toll
free number is eight hundred and nine foot one Shawn.
If you want to be a part of the program,
we welcome back to the program. He is the chairman
of the House Oversight Committee. James Comer is with us
also the author of a brand new book out bestseller.
It's called All the President's Money, Investigating the secret foreign
(00:27):
schemes that made the Biden family rich. Mister Comer, sir,
welcome back to the program. Glad to have you back.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
How are you.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
I'm great, Thanks for having me on Sean.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
All right. So apparently, I guess Hunter Biden had sued
this guy and claiming he was responsible for the contents
of the Laptop from Hell from being released, and now
apparently he wants to go to another country for three months.
This after he claimed that he's no longer selling his
paintings and no longer can provide for himself that he's
(01:00):
trying to use. I guess the home he was running
was burdened of the ground, which I wouldn't wish on
anybody in the Pacific. Halisas fire. The wildfire's out there,
But that does not seem to excuse or be a
rationale to get out of a deposition to me. And
my question is what is your take on that. More importantly,
(01:20):
all these people that got preemptive pardons, are they going
to be brought before the committee because none of them
can invoke their Fifth Amendment rights after receiving that pardon.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
That's exactly right, Sean. With effect to Hunter Biden, the
house he was living in was from a big Democrat downer,
his sugar brother, Kevin Morris. So he wasn't even you know,
he wasn't paying rent. He was living there free and
it was forty thousand dollars a month or some outrageous price.
He had no income the entire four year show Biden's president,
(01:54):
But yet he lived in the finest homes and drove
the finest cars, and abed the finest restaurant. And you
know he claimed he sold artwork. Well, the only artwork
we found that anyone bought was a few Democrat donors.
So it still wasn't enough to pay for not only
his his living expenses, but he also had child support
(02:15):
to pay, and he had the most expensive lawyer in
America to pay. So who was paying for all this
It was Democrat donors. Well, once Joe Biden left office,
the Democrat donors surprisingly John left the Biden family. They
don't care about him anymore. So you know, he's trying
to get out. He started all these lawsuits and they
were they were weaponized lawsuits to intimidate and to try
(02:39):
to work with the false narratives that the media were
saying that the Biden didn't do anything wrong. Now that
there's no one paying his legal fees, the lawyers have
walked away. So here we are with your question about
holding on.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Why does any just drop the lawsuit?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Then? Yeah, I don't know that he has a lawyer
that will go in and fill the paperwork to drop it.
I mean, he clearly wasn't paying his legal fees.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I quite hated him, and I thought he I thought
he claimed he was a lawyer. Didn't he is any
a lawyer?
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, he got the only legal fees he ever collected
were from the Shell company. That was the funny thing.
He had an LLC that was his professional LLC, and
the only money that was ever wired into there was
from from the other Shell companies. It was all a scheme.
He never practiced law while while Joe Biden was you know,
vice president, or or while you know, for Trump was president,
(03:30):
or or during the first the Biden term. So look
the balls in Pam Bondi's court. We, Jim Jordan and
I have strongly encouraged you Shary the Department of Justice
to to uh not give up on the Biden simply
because of the preemptive pardons. I don't believe the pardons
would hold up in court, and I believe Americans deserved
(03:53):
to hear from the Biden family. Let them, let them
do depositions. I would be happy to do the depositions
in the old Site Committee if Pam Bondy gives me
the green light. The problem that I've always had with
bringing the Bidens in is you've got to have the
Department of Justice get your back. If Pam Bondy wants
to go that route, if President Trump wants to go
that route, I will be more than happy to bring
(04:16):
the Bidens in, either for a committeering or for a deposition,
which honestly I would prefer a deficit.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Okay, but at that at that point then they're at
risk of perjury. They and Why do you think I
always believe that the power of the pardon was absolute,
even a preemptive pardon. Maybe I'm just trying to be
a little bit of a constitutional purist here. Why do
you think they're not valid?
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I just don't think you can preemptively pardon your entire
family for things that they haven't even been charged on.
The only two that had been charged were Hunter and Jim,
and we charge him in the Oversight committee with perjury,
and then of course why send that little gun charge
in tact savaging church? What I said, you know in
(05:02):
my book that you mentioned all the president's money, and
what we released in a lot of our bank memorandums
was that you know, ten different Biden family members received
this money. The twenty seven million dollars from influence coming
then there was eight million dollars in loans that was
never repaid or loan or interest paid or anything. That's
(05:24):
thirty five million dollars san And according to the Irish
Fist the Glory of Chapley and Ziegler, no one in
the family ever paid a penny of taxes on it.
So at the very least the Biden family would would
owe twelve or thirteen million dollars in taxes at the
very least, not to mention FARA violations, money laundering and
the other stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
We know from Hunter's laptop that he implicates his own
father as a beneficiary in this business, that he paid
half of Pops, he gave half his income to Pops,
that he paid for Pops's home run pas. You would
be talking to their financial guy. I believe it was
Eric Sherwin. Correct me if I'm wrong about which account
(06:06):
they ought to pay Dad's home repairs or Pop's home
repairs are from? Which accounts should they be using for that?
Then Joe Biden said numerous times that he never once
talked to his son, brother or anybody for that matter
about their foreign business deals. And we have evidence to
the contrary, and that would be pictures of Joe and
(06:27):
Hunter and business partners and foreign business partners. Is that correct?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
That is correct? And remember we found in the investigation
Eric Sherwin was doing all the bookkeeping work and Joe
Biden never paid him a painting. You think I know
in my businesses would I pay for a CPA and
for all the financial disclosure forms I have to fill out,
which would pay in comparison to what by last about
(06:52):
Sherwin was doing them and he was working for Hunter,
so that's something Hunter was paying for. And then the
lead the law firm, they had this same law firm,
and Joe Biden never could provide any documentation that he
had paid that law firm. So Hunter was paying for
a lot of expenses. In the email that you mentioned,
Hunter put a new roof on Joe Biden's house. I mean,
(07:14):
the list goes on and on and on from the
benefits that Joe Biden got, in addition to the two
hundred and forty thousand dollars that we found Joe Biden
got from the influenced felling schemes.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
No, it's just amazing to me, and there's a part
of me that does not want this weaponization of justice
to continue. And although I and we saw what they
did to Donald Trump and now Joe Biden's out of office,
I think what he did with Barisma and demanding and
leveraging a billion taxpayer dollars to fire a prosecutor that
(07:46):
was investigating his son, I think clearly he knew what
he was doing, and that benefit of the family, the
Kazakhstan oligarch the former first Lady of Moscow, Elena bout
Toarina the app call message that said, I'm sitting here
with my father and why didn't you keep your word?
And based on you know, everybody, he knows of my
(08:09):
ability to hold a grudge, you're going to regret it.
How many millions was sent into one account days after that,
and that was from a big energy conglomerate in China
at the time. How much money did they get from
that transaction after that message exchange one.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Hundred thousand within twenty four hours, and within three days
they got five million dollars far so five point one
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
That's an awful lot of money. And this is a
guy that went on Good Morning America. Did he not
admit that he had no experience and energy oil gas
call Ukraine? And I don't think he had any background
with China either, did he? Except that he went on
trips with Pops.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
That's all His whole business career was influence peddling and
just selling access to Joe. There was never even in
the deposition, not one time did he say I put
together this deal or because of my expertise this happened.
It was it was all, yes, I was on this
board and I was here and I was there, But
(09:08):
it was all because the board was because his dad
got him the boarder. But I mean he never provided anything.
He never owned the business. The Biden You know what
drove me crazy and the investigation shall they were talking
about the Biden businesses or the Biden business associates. There
was no business. The only thing they did was sell
access to the brand, and the brand was Joe Biden.
(09:31):
That's what Devin Archer said, That's what Tony Babolinski said.
I mean, it was all a big shakedown from the
Biden family.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Are you frustrated after you did all this work, uncovered
all of this information that in many ways you could
argue nothing came of it, or do you feel like
you did the country of service anyway?
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Well?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
I think we did the country of service. I mean,
when Joe Biden's last actors president United States, was he
his entire family preemptively over an eleven year period which
just so happened to be the eleven years where it's
the bank records, the dates coincided with the bank records
that I subpoenad. I think that validated everything that we said,
but I want to see justice served. And I know
(10:16):
that the fear that the Trump administration and that BONDI streeing. Okay,
the media is going to say it's retaliation, that it's
a weaponized government. But it's not retaliation. It's accountability. And
you know, I strongly encourage them to hold this family accountable.
We've done the investigation. It's out there. Joe Biden admitted
it's true when he pardoned his entire family, and the
(10:37):
fact that he never issued a statement as to why,
other than well, I'm afraid that the Trump administration will
will go after him. Well, I mean, if they haven't
done anything wrong, then they don't have anything to worry about.
But they have done things wrong, and I hope they're
held accountable. To send a message to anyone in the future,
you better not influence pedal and live about it and
(10:57):
not pay taxes.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Let's talk about budget. I mean, the House passed the
Sea r It's now moving on to the Senate. It's
a higher bar. You're going to need at least at
least seven Democrats to go along to get to the
sixty vote threshold. Do you believe Republicans understand how important
it is like they did yesterday with the cr that
(11:20):
they have to stick together, that not everybody's going to
get everything that they want, and that it is imperative
we get out from under the Biden Harris economy that
we're all currently living under.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
I hope so, Sean, And look, the sheer strength of
Donald Trump was on display yesterday in the House because
there were a lot of members that didn't want to
vote for that. But at the end of the day,
that was the best deal we could get. Donald Trump
realized that you've got you know, Democrats wanted to spend
more money. A lot of Republicans, myself included, wanted to
spend less money. But you have to compromise because you
(11:54):
have to have Democrats support and Senate there's no way
to pass this bill without eight democrat. So the compromise
is no spending. If you can go without increasing spending
in the federal government, sadly, that's a pretty big win.
That's about as big a fiscal win as there's been
in decades. Now. The next step, and the most important step,
is the Budget Reconciliation Bill, which you don't have to
(12:16):
have this build the rules are different. You just have
to have a majority in the Senate to us, every
Republican will stick with Trump, will pass this. And this
is the Trump agenda, This is the significant reforms, This
is the Doge Cut, This is everything that we've been
talking about and Trump's and talking about, and we had
to pass that Continuing Resolution first. Next is the Reconciliation Bill,
(12:39):
and I hope we stick together. It's not gonna be
as many cuts as as a lot of real you know,
my real conservative friends would love to see. But it's
gonna be cut. And that's when you're talking about trillions
in cuts. That's a pretty good day in Washington because
all I've seen in the eighth Fears, I've been watching
(13:00):
a trillion plus dollar deficits.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
So I think this, what do you make?
Speaker 2 (13:07):
What do you make of the Democratic Party? It seems
to me that they're a party that has lost there
of their soul and just a defeated group of people
with no idea how to get out from underneath where
they are.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
If you go in any town in America and you
ask the average roder, what does the republic Party stand for?
They stand for secure in the border, they stand for
common sense, they stand for eliminating waitfel spinning. If you
ask anybody what does a Democrat party stand for, they'll
say obstructing Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump. That's all
they sind for. And that's what was in full display
(13:40):
during the President's address to Congress. I mean, the Democrats
are a joke. And I know they're good Democrats in America.
They're probably good Democrats listen to your show right now.
But the Democrats in Congress, I mean, they are tone
death to what the American people want. They're attacking Congress
or attacking Elon Musk because God forbid, we want to
audit these fedal agencies and eliminate improper payments and put
(14:05):
common sense back into you know, how we spend our
tax dollars. So I think the American people are saying it,
and hopefully, if the Republicans will stick together like we
did yesterday, Sean, I think we're going to pass Trump's agenda,
and I think we're going to see a new golden
age like what Donald Trump talks about.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh, we certainly need it, especially after the last four years.
I appreciate your time. The book is called All the
President's Money, Investigating the Secret Foreign Schemes that made the
Biden family rich Amazon dot com. We have a link
on Hannity dot com. Bookstores all across the country. Thank you,
Congressman James Comer. Always appreciate your time. Eight hundred and
nine four one. Shawn is on number if you want
(14:44):
to be a part of the program. Quick Break Right
Back will continue. A couple of days ago, when I
announced that I was going to buy a test life,
I'm not under any illusions that I'm going to be
able to counter what has been an effort to harass, intimidate,
threaten Elon Musk. I mean, what has he done to
(15:08):
deserve this treatment? Whereas charging stations are being set ablaze
and vandalism and cars set ablaze at his dealerships, and
this boycott effort of the left, And I'm like, Okay, well,
what has he done to deserve this? He must be
a terrible person now he likes Donald Trump number one
(15:30):
and number two, he is exposing waste, fraud, abuse and
corruption in the DC swamp and that's why they hate him.
And what has he done to who to bring on
this kind of hatred? And I just said, I'm just
sick of it. I can't stand people that are bullies,
and I decided, you know what I'm gonna. I'm gonna
I'm gonna buy a Tesla. And now that I found
(15:52):
out about I love the car, absolutely love it. It goes.
I ordered mine. I test drove the car that I wanted.
It goes from zero to sixty to two seconds. It's
got over a thousand horse powers. It has self driving
capability mode, which I love. I'm so excited to try
this out and use it regularly. And it's an amazing
(16:14):
It's the most American bill car out there. So I figured, okay,
I'm going to I want to give one away on
the air. Now. We will start the contest on Monday.
I can announce that. And it was kind of cool
after we did this yesterday. We announced this the day
before President Trump he sees what's happening with Elon Musk
and he brought a bunch of Tesla's to the White
(16:35):
House and he bought one himself. I was like, oh,
that's cool anyway, So I want to play some of
the President and Elon at the White House yesterday when
the President was praising Elon and talking about how horrible
people are being to him, so Pensid talks.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
About some of the vindment stuff from going on around
the country back dealerships.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Some say they should be labeled domestic terrorists.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I'm going to do that.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
I'll do I'm going to stop them.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
We catch anybody doing it because they're being a great
American company.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
You know, I've stuck up for the NFL. I've stuck
up for a lot of.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
American companies and other companies, but American companies. I did
a very big favorite for the NFL. I do favors
for all. When you heard an American company, especially a
company like this, supplies so many jobs that others are
unable to do. When you do that, those people are
going to go through a big problem when we catch them,
and we have a lot of you get a lot
(17:27):
of cameras up.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
We already know who some of them are. We're going
to catch them, and they're bad guys. They're the same
guys that screw.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
Around with our schools and universities, the same garbage.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
And no, we're going to catch them.
Speaker 6 (17:41):
And let me tell you, you do it to Tesla, and
you do it to any company, We're gonna catch you,
and you're gonna you're gonna go through.
Speaker 7 (17:48):
Hell, mister President, your comments the other day not mowing
out a potential procession seem to rattle the stock markets,
the group just so specifically on the recession.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
Yeah, I think this country I don't see it at all.
I think this country is gonna boom. But as I said,
I can do it the easy way of the hard way.
The hard way to do it is exactly.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
What I'm doing. But the results are going to be
twenty times greater. That's the president. I remember, Trump is
always right.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
You look at what I've said over the last ten years.
Trump has been right and over. This is the uh,
this is the.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Way to do it. We're gonna make America great again.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
You know, to make it great, you have to have jobs,
you have to have factories, you have to have I
look at some of the things that like this last administration.
Speaker 5 (18:38):
He was the worst president in the history of our country.
Nothing was happening, nothing, he had no idea what was
going on. Our country went to hell.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
And then to allow millions of people to come in
that are prisoners and mental institution patients and all of
the things.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
That gang members, drug lords.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
We're searching them all down now, trying to get them
out of our country.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
And we're going to do that.
Speaker 6 (19:02):
But on the financial end and the economic end. What
we're doing is to me, it's the most exciting. Our
country will be greater than ever before and it won't
take too long.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
So as a present, when you look at the market
selling off, that didn't concern you, And where do you
see a customer concerning I think some people are gonna
make great deals by buying socks and bonds.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
And all the things they're buying.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
I think we're gonna have an economy that's a real economy,
not a fake economy. It was a fake economy. They
were putting an old government jobs. You see what happened
last week. Last month we had more real jobs and
government jobs are way down.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
That's going to continue. Those are real jobs. Those are
jobs that keep the country going.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
You can't have all government jobs you have no income
to pay the workers.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Yeah, and a lot of those workers didn't show up
to work. That was the other problem.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
And Resident Trump, there's this protest leader from Columbia University
that the administration is moving to deport.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
He said that his ris is going to be the
first of many. How many I think we are to
get them all out of the country.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
They're troublemakers, they're agitators, they don't love our country.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
We are to get him the hell out. I think
that guy we old to get him.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
I heard his statements too, there were plenty bad and
I think we are to get him the hell out
of the country. I watched him. I watch tapes specifically,
I watched tapes. And you can have them, okay, and
you can have them, and you can have the rest
of them. Let him go to school, let him learn.
Columbia used to be a good school. Now it's been
(20:30):
overrun because of bad leadership.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
That's what happens.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Happens to countries, and it happens to the universities, and
it happens to companies. And I don't want it to
happen to a guy that did nothing wrong. He did
everything right because he did a great company. But what
he did by coming into government to help government from
years of abuse, from decades of abuse.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
And you see that.
Speaker 6 (20:52):
When you look at Social Security, where you have two
hundred year old people of the rules have said, that's just.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Care. People don't care.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Everyone know this, But it's also I believe it's also
large fraud.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
I think it said, but I think it's also large
for it.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
I guess I'm just telling people this man is a
great patriot and you should cherish him.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
You should cherish him. You know. I have a little statement.
Speaker 6 (21:17):
We have to take care of our high IQ people
because we don't have too.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Many of them. We got to take care of him.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
If you look at the Social Security Administration and you
guys are looking for fraud and waste and abuse, can
you guarantee people who are concerned about an interruption to
benefits that there will not be.
Speaker 8 (21:36):
Yes, We're going to be very careful with any interruption benefits.
In fact, only by tackling the waste of fraud and
entitlemist like Social Security Medicare, can we actually preserve those
programs for the future because.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
With uncheck fraud and waste.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
We won't be able to afford them. The President's very
dedicated to solving the budget deficit, which if we don't
solve us bunchet deficit, we're going to go back upt
to the country. We go as a country as no
social security, there's no medicals enough and.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Pressor we're saying.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
What really matters is moving people from jobs that are
relatively low productivity in government to higher productivity in the
private sector, increasing the true output of products and services.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
That's the real economy.
Speaker 8 (22:18):
That's what actually enables Americas to have a higher standard
up living.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
And that's what's happening, and that's I think you'll you'll
see that. You'll see the troop of that in the
in the must company.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
And we're going to make it really much stronger by
taking people that don't exist, or taking people that shouldn't
be there out, by taking illegal aliens that are on
Social Security or Medicaid or Medicaid and Medicare.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
By taking them out, we'll make it much stronger.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
The country will be much stronger, but it's going to
really be stronger economically. And when you look at what
we're doing. I've been called by so many companies. Yesterday's
you know, I had a meeting with some of the
biggest tech companies in the world, and all they're talking
about thy kid. IBM was there, We had a lot
of them, deal, Michael Dell was there. We had a
(23:06):
lot of great companies, Juli Packard, and all they're talking.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
About is investing in this country.
Speaker 6 (23:13):
They want to be sure, don't forget they're looking down
the road ten years, in fifteen years.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
They want to make sure we have a scoring country.
They're all coming in, as you know.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
Apple Tim Cook, he said that he's going to invest
five hundred pinion in the United States.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
He'd never did that before. He invested in China.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
He's got his plants in China, and now he's going.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
To be building in the United States.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
And if I didn't have a victory in that election,
you wouldn't be doing it. And if I didn't say
what I'm saying, and I'm being very honest, and it's
much more difficult than just sitting around and having a
great time. It's a very glamorous position if you want
to do that. We could have kept it, but eventually
bad things would have happened.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
This way good things. I'm very optimistic about the country.
Speaker 6 (23:55):
I think we're going to have the greatest markets we've
ever had, and it's going.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
To be really fueled by what we're doing.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Well. You had to see these companies yesterday. They're investing
billions and trillions. They're investing trillions of dollars, Yet they
wouldn't have invested ten cents.
Speaker 7 (24:12):
Talk to Vladimir Putin about this ceasefire deal.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Do you think you need to have a conversation with
him to get the Russians to coach to Vladimir Put?
Speaker 6 (24:19):
Yeah, I want to get Look that's the other It
takes two to tango, as they say, right, So hopefully
he'll also agree, and I really think that would be
seventy five percent of the way. The rest is getting
it documented and you know, negotiating land position success.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
So you'll talk to him this week about Jia to
see fire in place on the Ukrainian side.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
How close do you think then you are to be
total cease fire? Well, I hope it'll be over the
next few days. I'd like to see.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
I know we have a big meeting with Russia tomorrow
and some great conversations hopefully will ensue. The people have
done a great job. Marco Rubio has been great, Steve
Whitcoff has been great, Michael Waltz, they're all, every one
of them.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
They've really stepped up. They are into it. They want
to see They want to see two things by far.
Number one is.
Speaker 6 (25:08):
Death the people that aren't citizens of our country, but
they're people just like you, the people, and we want
to stop. And we also don't want to give billions
and hundreds of billions, And that was a way. We're
there for three hundred and fifty billion dollars, and there
was no reason this war would have never happened if
I was president. So it's a very sad thing. Thank
(25:28):
you all very much. I love Tesla.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
The one I like is that one. I want that
same comport. Are you going to put down a credit card? Elon?
Would you take a personal I do it the old
fen I give check.
Speaker 6 (25:45):
I like a check, you know, I like a check
better than this modern system of all of a sudden,
there's money in your accap nobody knows.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
You find Tesla will boost Tesla sales.
Speaker 6 (25:58):
And boost because look, look, I can't know one thing.
When somebody's a great patriot, they shouldn't be hurt. He's
a great patriot. He didn't know me from Adam until
we met a little bit when I was in my
first term. But he came out he endorsed me very strongly,
and I admired that and respected that, and I respected
(26:20):
him for years.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
I respected him.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
And when there was a chance to help our government,
you know, you're not going to use an average person.
Some people say well, let's use somebody that failed in
business for his whole life. You know, this guy has
been amazing. And the kind of thinking is it's from
a different age. It's really from a different age. When
we said let's cut two percent, he said, let's cut
sixty percent.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
And he turned out to be right. And a lot
of people are just not here.
Speaker 6 (26:46):
They don't work for us, and they're getting checks and
they don't work. And you know, Peter, we've been, we've looked,
and we have so many different stats and so many
different figures, and it's so embarrassing to us as a country.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
No, we're gonna have a streamlined country with good people.
Speaker 6 (27:01):
And one of the reasons and I called for the
it wasn't a cabinet mean, it was just a meeting
of some cabinet members and elon.
Speaker 5 (27:08):
The one thing. And I think he agrees with me
one hundred percent. It's one thing to cut.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
But we want to cut the wrong people, meaning we
want to cut people that aren't doing the job.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
We want to keep the right people.
Speaker 6 (27:18):
And I said, I don't want to just say we're
going to cut fifty percent.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
I want to cut the people that aren't doing the job.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
The people that aren't there, the people that are scamming
the system.
Speaker 5 (27:27):
And he agrees with that one hundred percent. Are you
sure you don't want to take a test drive. I'd
love to do it, though maybe I'll do it some
other time. Do any want to keep working with you
throughout your first term? I mean, is there going to
be an end date for the two of you working together?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
No? You know, I was thinking about that the other day.
I think he'll know when it's time. Well, he doesn't
want to say about it, although I think he does
like it.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
There's no place like the What would you want to say?
I don't. I don't think that. I think he wants
to get the job done, get back to his businesses.
That's what I think.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
I said, you just want to I'll stay as long
as it's school in that productive and afect health country.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
I'll day. Thank you, thank thank you, everybody? All right?
Speaker 2 (28:07):
That was Elon and the President at the White House yesterday.
Uh and and listen, I I just I can't stand bullying.
There's nothing this man has done that has warranted this
level of hatred. He's now getting death threats, he's now,
you know, seeing acts of terrorism as far as I'm
(28:27):
concerned at his dealerships and his charging stations and all
because he's helping the country for free. There's just something
morally wrong with that. Anyway, we're gonna give away a Tesla.
All the details will be on Hannity dot com on Monday,
and we'll talk about it more when that happens.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
All Right, News round Up, Information overload hour. Our toll
free number is eight hundred and nine foot one Shawn.
If you want to be a part of the program,
we welcome back to the program. He is the chairman
of the House Oversight Committee. James Comer is with us
also the author of a brand new book out bestseller.
It's called All the President's Money, Investigating the secret foreign
(00:27):
schemes that made the Biden family rich. Mister Comer, sir,
welcome back to the program. Glad to have you back.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
How are you.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
I'm great, Thanks for having me on Sean.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
All right. So apparently, I guess Hunter Biden had sued
this guy and claiming he was responsible for the contents
of the Laptop from Hell from being released, and now
apparently he wants to go to another country for three months.
This after he claimed that he's no longer selling his
paintings and no longer can provide for himself that he's
(01:00):
trying to use. I guess the home he was running
was burdened of the ground, which I wouldn't wish on
anybody in the Pacific. Halisas fire. The wildfire's out there,
But that does not seem to excuse or be a
rationale to get out of a deposition to me. And
my question is what is your take on that. More importantly,
(01:20):
all these people that got preemptive pardons, are they going
to be brought before the committee because none of them
can invoke their Fifth Amendment rights after receiving that pardon.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
That's exactly right, Sean. With effect to Hunter Biden, the
house he was living in was from a big Democrat downer,
his sugar brother, Kevin Morris. So he wasn't even you know,
he wasn't paying rent. He was living there free and
it was forty thousand dollars a month or some outrageous price.
He had no income the entire four year show Biden's president,
(01:54):
But yet he lived in the finest homes and drove
the finest cars, and abed the finest restaurant. And you
know he claimed he sold artwork. Well, the only artwork
we found that anyone bought was a few Democrat donors.
So it still wasn't enough to pay for not only
his his living expenses, but he also had child support
(02:15):
to pay, and he had the most expensive lawyer in
America to pay. So who was paying for all this
It was Democrat donors. Well, once Joe Biden left office,
the Democrat donors surprisingly John left the Biden family. They
don't care about him anymore. So you know, he's trying
to get out. He started all these lawsuits and they
were they were weaponized lawsuits to intimidate and to try
(02:39):
to work with the false narratives that the media were
saying that the Biden didn't do anything wrong. Now that
there's no one paying his legal fees, the lawyers have
walked away. So here we are with your question about
holding on.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Why does any just drop the lawsuit?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Then? Yeah, I don't know that he has a lawyer
that will go in and fill the paperwork to drop it.
I mean, he clearly wasn't paying his legal fees.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I quite hated him, and I thought he I thought
he claimed he was a lawyer. Didn't he is any
a lawyer?
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, he got the only legal fees he ever collected
were from the Shell company. That was the funny thing.
He had an LLC that was his professional LLC, and
the only money that was ever wired into there was
from from the other Shell companies. It was all a scheme.
He never practiced law while while Joe Biden was you know,
vice president, or or while you know, for Trump was president,
(03:30):
or or during the first the Biden term. So look
the balls in Pam Bondi's court. We, Jim Jordan and
I have strongly encouraged you Shary the Department of Justice
to to uh not give up on the Biden simply
because of the preemptive pardons. I don't believe the pardons
would hold up in court, and I believe Americans deserved
(03:53):
to hear from the Biden family. Let them, let them
do depositions. I would be happy to do the depositions
in the old Site Committee if Pam Bondy gives me
the green light. The problem that I've always had with
bringing the Bidens in is you've got to have the
Department of Justice get your back. If Pam Bondy wants
to go that route, if President Trump wants to go
that route, I will be more than happy to bring
(04:16):
the Bidens in, either for a committeering or for a deposition,
which honestly I would prefer a deficit.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Okay, but at that at that point then they're at
risk of perjury. They and Why do you think I
always believe that the power of the pardon was absolute,
even a preemptive pardon. Maybe I'm just trying to be
a little bit of a constitutional purist here. Why do
you think they're not valid?
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I just don't think you can preemptively pardon your entire
family for things that they haven't even been charged on.
The only two that had been charged were Hunter and Jim,
and we charge him in the Oversight committee with perjury,
and then of course why send that little gun charge
in tact savaging church? What I said, you know in
(05:02):
my book that you mentioned all the president's money, and
what we released in a lot of our bank memorandums
was that you know, ten different Biden family members received
this money. The twenty seven million dollars from influence coming
then there was eight million dollars in loans that was
never repaid or loan or interest paid or anything. That's
(05:24):
thirty five million dollars san And according to the Irish
Fist the Glory of Chapley and Ziegler, no one in
the family ever paid a penny of taxes on it.
So at the very least the Biden family would would
owe twelve or thirteen million dollars in taxes at the
very least, not to mention FARA violations, money laundering and
the other stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
We know from Hunter's laptop that he implicates his own
father as a beneficiary in this business, that he paid
half of Pops, he gave half his income to Pops,
that he paid for Pops's home run pas. You would
be talking to their financial guy. I believe it was
Eric Sherwin. Correct me if I'm wrong about which account
(06:06):
they ought to pay Dad's home repairs or Pop's home
repairs are from? Which accounts should they be using for that?
Then Joe Biden said numerous times that he never once
talked to his son, brother or anybody for that matter
about their foreign business deals. And we have evidence to
the contrary, and that would be pictures of Joe and
(06:27):
Hunter and business partners and foreign business partners. Is that correct?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
That is correct? And remember we found in the investigation
Eric Sherwin was doing all the bookkeeping work and Joe
Biden never paid him a painting. You think I know
in my businesses would I pay for a CPA and
for all the financial disclosure forms I have to fill out,
which would pay in comparison to what by last about
(06:52):
Sherwin was doing them and he was working for Hunter,
so that's something Hunter was paying for. And then the
lead the law firm, they had this same law firm,
and Joe Biden never could provide any documentation that he
had paid that law firm. So Hunter was paying for
a lot of expenses. In the email that you mentioned,
Hunter put a new roof on Joe Biden's house. I mean,
(07:14):
the list goes on and on and on from the
benefits that Joe Biden got, in addition to the two
hundred and forty thousand dollars that we found Joe Biden
got from the influenced felling schemes.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
No, it's just amazing to me, and there's a part
of me that does not want this weaponization of justice
to continue. And although I and we saw what they
did to Donald Trump and now Joe Biden's out of office,
I think what he did with Barisma and demanding and
leveraging a billion taxpayer dollars to fire a prosecutor that
(07:46):
was investigating his son, I think clearly he knew what
he was doing, and that benefit of the family, the
Kazakhstan oligarch the former first Lady of Moscow, Elena bout
Toarina the app call message that said, I'm sitting here
with my father and why didn't you keep your word?
And based on you know, everybody, he knows of my
(08:09):
ability to hold a grudge, you're going to regret it.
How many millions was sent into one account days after that,
and that was from a big energy conglomerate in China
at the time. How much money did they get from
that transaction after that message exchange one.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Hundred thousand within twenty four hours, and within three days
they got five million dollars far so five point one
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
That's an awful lot of money. And this is a
guy that went on Good Morning America. Did he not
admit that he had no experience and energy oil gas
call Ukraine? And I don't think he had any background
with China either, did he? Except that he went on
trips with Pops.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
That's all His whole business career was influence peddling and
just selling access to Joe. There was never even in
the deposition, not one time did he say I put
together this deal or because of my expertise this happened.
It was it was all, yes, I was on this
board and I was here and I was there, But
(09:08):
it was all because the board was because his dad
got him the boarder. But I mean he never provided anything.
He never owned the business. The Biden You know what
drove me crazy and the investigation shall they were talking
about the Biden businesses or the Biden business associates. There
was no business. The only thing they did was sell
access to the brand, and the brand was Joe Biden.
(09:31):
That's what Devin Archer said, That's what Tony Babolinski said.
I mean, it was all a big shakedown from the
Biden family.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Are you frustrated after you did all this work, uncovered
all of this information that in many ways you could
argue nothing came of it, or do you feel like
you did the country of service anyway?
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Well?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
I think we did the country of service. I mean,
when Joe Biden's last actors president United States, was he
his entire family preemptively over an eleven year period which
just so happened to be the eleven years where it's
the bank records, the dates coincided with the bank records
that I subpoenad. I think that validated everything that we said,
but I want to see justice served. And I know
(10:16):
that the fear that the Trump administration and that BONDI streeing. Okay,
the media is going to say it's retaliation, that it's
a weaponized government. But it's not retaliation. It's accountability. And
you know, I strongly encourage them to hold this family accountable.
We've done the investigation. It's out there. Joe Biden admitted
it's true when he pardoned his entire family, and the
(10:37):
fact that he never issued a statement as to why,
other than well, I'm afraid that the Trump administration will
will go after him. Well, I mean, if they haven't
done anything wrong, then they don't have anything to worry about.
But they have done things wrong, and I hope they're
held accountable. To send a message to anyone in the future,
you better not influence pedal and live about it and
(10:57):
not pay taxes.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Let's talk about budget. I mean, the House passed the
Sea r It's now moving on to the Senate. It's
a higher bar. You're going to need at least at
least seven Democrats to go along to get to the
sixty vote threshold. Do you believe Republicans understand how important
it is like they did yesterday with the cr that
(11:20):
they have to stick together, that not everybody's going to
get everything that they want, and that it is imperative
we get out from under the Biden Harris economy that
we're all currently living under.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
I hope so, Sean, And look, the sheer strength of
Donald Trump was on display yesterday in the House because
there were a lot of members that didn't want to
vote for that. But at the end of the day,
that was the best deal we could get. Donald Trump
realized that you've got you know, Democrats wanted to spend
more money. A lot of Republicans, myself included, wanted to
spend less money. But you have to compromise because you
(11:54):
have to have Democrats support and Senate there's no way
to pass this bill without eight democrat. So the compromise
is no spending. If you can go without increasing spending
in the federal government, sadly, that's a pretty big win.
That's about as big a fiscal win as there's been
in decades. Now. The next step, and the most important step,
is the Budget Reconciliation Bill, which you don't have to
(12:16):
have this build the rules are different. You just have
to have a majority in the Senate to us, every
Republican will stick with Trump, will pass this. And this
is the Trump agenda, This is the significant reforms, This
is the Doge Cut, This is everything that we've been
talking about and Trump's and talking about, and we had
to pass that Continuing Resolution first. Next is the Reconciliation Bill,
(12:39):
and I hope we stick together. It's not gonna be
as many cuts as as a lot of real you know,
my real conservative friends would love to see. But it's
gonna be cut. And that's when you're talking about trillions
in cuts. That's a pretty good day in Washington because
all I've seen in the eighth Fears, I've been watching
(13:00):
a trillion plus dollar deficits.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
So I think this, what do you make?
Speaker 2 (13:07):
What do you make of the Democratic Party? It seems
to me that they're a party that has lost there
of their soul and just a defeated group of people
with no idea how to get out from underneath where
they are.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
If you go in any town in America and you
ask the average roder, what does the republic Party stand for?
They stand for secure in the border, they stand for
common sense, they stand for eliminating waitfel spinning. If you
ask anybody what does a Democrat party stand for, they'll
say obstructing Donald Trump. They hate Donald Trump. That's all
they sind for. And that's what was in full display
(13:40):
during the President's address to Congress. I mean, the Democrats
are a joke. And I know they're good Democrats in America.
They're probably good Democrats listen to your show right now.
But the Democrats in Congress, I mean, they are tone
death to what the American people want. They're attacking Congress
or attacking Elon Musk because God forbid, we want to
audit these fedal agencies and eliminate improper payments and put
(14:05):
common sense back into you know, how we spend our
tax dollars. So I think the American people are saying it,
and hopefully, if the Republicans will stick together like we
did yesterday, Sean, I think we're going to pass Trump's agenda,
and I think we're going to see a new golden
age like what Donald Trump talks about.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh, we certainly need it, especially after the last four years.
I appreciate your time. The book is called All the
President's Money, Investigating the Secret Foreign Schemes that made the
Biden family rich Amazon dot com. We have a link
on Hannity dot com. Bookstores all across the country. Thank you,
Congressman James Comer. Always appreciate your time. Eight hundred and
nine four one. Shawn is on number if you want
(14:44):
to be a part of the program. Quick Break Right
Back will continue. A couple of days ago, when I
announced that I was going to buy a test life,
I'm not under any illusions that I'm going to be
able to counter what has been an effort to harass, intimidate,
threaten Elon Musk. I mean, what has he done to
(15:08):
deserve this treatment? Whereas charging stations are being set ablaze
and vandalism and cars set ablaze at his dealerships, and
this boycott effort of the left, And I'm like, Okay, well,
what has he done to deserve this? He must be
a terrible person now he likes Donald Trump number one
(15:30):
and number two, he is exposing waste, fraud, abuse and
corruption in the DC swamp and that's why they hate him.
And what has he done to who to bring on
this kind of hatred? And I just said, I'm just
sick of it. I can't stand people that are bullies,
and I decided, you know what I'm gonna. I'm gonna
I'm gonna buy a Tesla. And now that I found
(15:52):
out about I love the car, absolutely love it. It goes.
I ordered mine. I test drove the car that I wanted.
It goes from zero to sixty to two seconds. It's
got over a thousand horse powers. It has self driving
capability mode, which I love. I'm so excited to try
this out and use it regularly. And it's an amazing
(16:14):
It's the most American bill car out there. So I figured, okay,
I'm going to I want to give one away on
the air. Now. We will start the contest on Monday.
I can announce that. And it was kind of cool
after we did this yesterday. We announced this the day
before President Trump he sees what's happening with Elon Musk
and he brought a bunch of Tesla's to the White
(16:35):
House and he bought one himself. I was like, oh,
that's cool anyway, So I want to play some of
the President and Elon at the White House yesterday when
the President was praising Elon and talking about how horrible
people are being to him, so Pensid talks.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
About some of the vindment stuff from going on around
the country back dealerships.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Some say they should be labeled domestic terrorists.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I'm going to do that.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
I'll do I'm going to stop them.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
We catch anybody doing it because they're being a great
American company.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
You know, I've stuck up for the NFL. I've stuck
up for a lot of.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
American companies and other companies, but American companies. I did
a very big favorite for the NFL. I do favors
for all. When you heard an American company, especially a
company like this, supplies so many jobs that others are
unable to do. When you do that, those people are
going to go through a big problem when we catch them,
and we have a lot of you get a lot
(17:27):
of cameras up.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
We already know who some of them are. We're going
to catch them, and they're bad guys. They're the same
guys that screw.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
Around with our schools and universities, the same garbage.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
And no, we're going to catch them.
Speaker 6 (17:41):
And let me tell you, you do it to Tesla, and
you do it to any company, We're gonna catch you,
and you're gonna you're gonna go through.
Speaker 7 (17:48):
Hell, mister President, your comments the other day not mowing
out a potential procession seem to rattle the stock markets,
the group just so specifically on the recession.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
Yeah, I think this country I don't see it at all.
I think this country is gonna boom. But as I said,
I can do it the easy way of the hard way.
The hard way to do it is exactly.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
What I'm doing. But the results are going to be
twenty times greater. That's the president. I remember, Trump is
always right.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
You look at what I've said over the last ten years.
Trump has been right and over. This is the uh,
this is the.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Way to do it. We're gonna make America great again.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
You know, to make it great, you have to have jobs,
you have to have factories, you have to have I
look at some of the things that like this last administration.
Speaker 5 (18:38):
He was the worst president in the history of our country.
Nothing was happening, nothing, he had no idea what was
going on. Our country went to hell.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
And then to allow millions of people to come in
that are prisoners and mental institution patients and all of
the things.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
That gang members, drug lords.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
We're searching them all down now, trying to get them
out of our country.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
And we're going to do that.
Speaker 6 (19:02):
But on the financial end and the economic end. What
we're doing is to me, it's the most exciting. Our
country will be greater than ever before and it won't
take too long.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
So as a present, when you look at the market
selling off, that didn't concern you, And where do you
see a customer concerning I think some people are gonna
make great deals by buying socks and bonds.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
And all the things they're buying.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
I think we're gonna have an economy that's a real economy,
not a fake economy. It was a fake economy. They
were putting an old government jobs. You see what happened
last week. Last month we had more real jobs and
government jobs are way down.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
That's going to continue. Those are real jobs. Those are
jobs that keep the country going.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
You can't have all government jobs you have no income
to pay the workers.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Yeah, and a lot of those workers didn't show up
to work. That was the other problem.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
And Resident Trump, there's this protest leader from Columbia University
that the administration is moving to deport.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
He said that his ris is going to be the
first of many. How many I think we are to
get them all out of the country.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
They're troublemakers, they're agitators, they don't love our country.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
We are to get him the hell out. I think
that guy we old to get him.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
I heard his statements too, there were plenty bad and
I think we are to get him the hell out
of the country. I watched him. I watch tapes specifically,
I watched tapes. And you can have them, okay, and
you can have them, and you can have the rest
of them. Let him go to school, let him learn.
Columbia used to be a good school. Now it's been
(20:30):
overrun because of bad leadership.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
That's what happens.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Happens to countries, and it happens to the universities, and
it happens to companies. And I don't want it to
happen to a guy that did nothing wrong. He did
everything right because he did a great company. But what
he did by coming into government to help government from
years of abuse, from decades of abuse.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
And you see that.
Speaker 6 (20:52):
When you look at Social Security, where you have two
hundred year old people of the rules have said, that's just.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Care. People don't care.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Everyone know this, But it's also I believe it's also
large fraud.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
I think it said, but I think it's also large
for it.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
I guess I'm just telling people this man is a
great patriot and you should cherish him.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
You should cherish him. You know. I have a little statement.
Speaker 6 (21:17):
We have to take care of our high IQ people
because we don't have too.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Many of them. We got to take care of him.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
If you look at the Social Security Administration and you
guys are looking for fraud and waste and abuse, can
you guarantee people who are concerned about an interruption to
benefits that there will not be.
Speaker 8 (21:36):
Yes, We're going to be very careful with any interruption benefits.
In fact, only by tackling the waste of fraud and
entitlemist like Social Security Medicare, can we actually preserve those
programs for the future because.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
With uncheck fraud and waste.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
We won't be able to afford them. The President's very
dedicated to solving the budget deficit, which if we don't
solve us bunchet deficit, we're going to go back upt
to the country. We go as a country as no
social security, there's no medicals enough and.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Pressor we're saying.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
What really matters is moving people from jobs that are
relatively low productivity in government to higher productivity in the
private sector, increasing the true output of products and services.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
That's the real economy.
Speaker 8 (22:18):
That's what actually enables Americas to have a higher standard
up living.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
And that's what's happening, and that's I think you'll you'll
see that. You'll see the troop of that in the
in the must company.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
And we're going to make it really much stronger by
taking people that don't exist, or taking people that shouldn't
be there out, by taking illegal aliens that are on
Social Security or Medicaid or Medicaid and Medicare.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
By taking them out, we'll make it much stronger.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
The country will be much stronger, but it's going to
really be stronger economically. And when you look at what
we're doing. I've been called by so many companies. Yesterday's
you know, I had a meeting with some of the
biggest tech companies in the world, and all they're talking
about thy kid. IBM was there, We had a lot
of them, deal, Michael Dell was there. We had a
(23:06):
lot of great companies, Juli Packard, and all they're talking.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
About is investing in this country.
Speaker 6 (23:13):
They want to be sure, don't forget they're looking down
the road ten years, in fifteen years.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
They want to make sure we have a scoring country.
They're all coming in, as you know.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
Apple Tim Cook, he said that he's going to invest
five hundred pinion in the United States.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
He'd never did that before. He invested in China.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
He's got his plants in China, and now he's going.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
To be building in the United States.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
And if I didn't have a victory in that election,
you wouldn't be doing it. And if I didn't say
what I'm saying, and I'm being very honest, and it's
much more difficult than just sitting around and having a
great time. It's a very glamorous position if you want
to do that. We could have kept it, but eventually
bad things would have happened.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
This way good things. I'm very optimistic about the country.
Speaker 6 (23:55):
I think we're going to have the greatest markets we've
ever had, and it's going.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
To be really fueled by what we're doing.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Well. You had to see these companies yesterday. They're investing
billions and trillions. They're investing trillions of dollars, Yet they
wouldn't have invested ten cents.
Speaker 7 (24:12):
Talk to Vladimir Putin about this ceasefire deal.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Do you think you need to have a conversation with
him to get the Russians to coach to Vladimir Put?
Speaker 6 (24:19):
Yeah, I want to get Look that's the other It
takes two to tango, as they say, right, So hopefully
he'll also agree, and I really think that would be
seventy five percent of the way. The rest is getting
it documented and you know, negotiating land position success.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
So you'll talk to him this week about Jia to
see fire in place on the Ukrainian side.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
How close do you think then you are to be
total cease fire? Well, I hope it'll be over the
next few days. I'd like to see.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
I know we have a big meeting with Russia tomorrow
and some great conversations hopefully will ensue. The people have
done a great job. Marco Rubio has been great, Steve
Whitcoff has been great, Michael Waltz, they're all, every one
of them.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
They've really stepped up. They are into it. They want
to see They want to see two things by far.
Number one is.
Speaker 6 (25:08):
Death the people that aren't citizens of our country, but
they're people just like you, the people, and we want
to stop. And we also don't want to give billions
and hundreds of billions, And that was a way. We're
there for three hundred and fifty billion dollars, and there
was no reason this war would have never happened if
I was president. So it's a very sad thing. Thank
(25:28):
you all very much. I love Tesla.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
The one I like is that one. I want that
same comport. Are you going to put down a credit card? Elon?
Would you take a personal I do it the old
fen I give check.
Speaker 6 (25:45):
I like a check, you know, I like a check
better than this modern system of all of a sudden,
there's money in your accap nobody knows.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
You find Tesla will boost Tesla sales.
Speaker 6 (25:58):
And boost because look, look, I can't know one thing.
When somebody's a great patriot, they shouldn't be hurt. He's
a great patriot. He didn't know me from Adam until
we met a little bit when I was in my
first term. But he came out he endorsed me very strongly,
and I admired that and respected that, and I respected
(26:20):
him for years.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
I respected him.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
And when there was a chance to help our government,
you know, you're not going to use an average person.
Some people say well, let's use somebody that failed in
business for his whole life. You know, this guy has
been amazing. And the kind of thinking is it's from
a different age. It's really from a different age. When
we said let's cut two percent, he said, let's cut
sixty percent.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
And he turned out to be right. And a lot
of people are just not here.
Speaker 6 (26:46):
They don't work for us, and they're getting checks and
they don't work. And you know, Peter, we've been, we've looked,
and we have so many different stats and so many
different figures, and it's so embarrassing to us as a country.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
No, we're gonna have a streamlined country with good people.
Speaker 6 (27:01):
And one of the reasons and I called for the
it wasn't a cabinet mean, it was just a meeting
of some cabinet members and elon.
Speaker 5 (27:08):
The one thing. And I think he agrees with me
one hundred percent. It's one thing to cut.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
But we want to cut the wrong people, meaning we
want to cut people that aren't doing the job.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
We want to keep the right people.
Speaker 6 (27:18):
And I said, I don't want to just say we're
going to cut fifty percent.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
I want to cut the people that aren't doing the job.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
The people that aren't there, the people that are scamming
the system.
Speaker 5 (27:27):
And he agrees with that one hundred percent. Are you
sure you don't want to take a test drive. I'd
love to do it, though maybe I'll do it some
other time. Do any want to keep working with you
throughout your first term? I mean, is there going to
be an end date for the two of you working together?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
No? You know, I was thinking about that the other day.
I think he'll know when it's time. Well, he doesn't
want to say about it, although I think he does
like it.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
There's no place like the What would you want to say?
I don't. I don't think that. I think he wants
to get the job done, get back to his businesses.
That's what I think.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
I said, you just want to I'll stay as long
as it's school in that productive and afect health country.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
I'll day. Thank you, thank thank you, everybody? All right?
Speaker 2 (28:07):
That was Elon and the President at the White House yesterday.
Uh and and listen, I I just I can't stand bullying.
There's nothing this man has done that has warranted this
level of hatred. He's now getting death threats, he's now,
you know, seeing acts of terrorism as far as I'm
(28:27):
concerned at his dealerships and his charging stations and all
because he's helping the country for free. There's just something
morally wrong with that. Anyway, we're gonna give away a Tesla.
All the details will be on Hannity dot com on Monday,
and we'll talk about it more when that happens.
Speaker 6 (28:41):
You know.
