Speaker 2 (00:16):
Un come along.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Would you want to try to make them look like
I made some compromise in the dead stealing and I didn't.
I made a compromise on the budget. We finally were
able to cut spending. We're the first Congress to vote
for cutting spending year over year. Let's go back to
pre COVID levels of spending. That's what we asked for.
We're not This deal doesn't do that. Do they still
have to worry about the Progressive Caucus and whether or
(00:39):

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Fredom is back in stuff, Welcome to the Revolution, coming
to your sentence, don't talas and saying you a.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Conscious sun New Sean Hennity Show more I'm the Scenes,
information on freaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Right our two Sean Hennity Show told free it's eight
hundred and ninety four one. Shawn, you want to be
a part of the program. As we come to we
(01:20):
are in Des Moines, Iowa tonight for our town hall
with President candidate Donald J. Trump. It's going to be
a lot of fun. I'm sure. I hope you'll tune
in nine eastern on Fox This Apparently we have a
rowdy crowd down there already I have been told, but
that should be fine. So we had been awaiting. Now,
(01:40):
if you recall, there was a document that James Comer,
the head of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee,
he's the chairman, and Senator Charles Grassley right here of
Iowa have wanted from the FBI. And it had to
do with a very specif instance, a claim that Joe
(02:03):
Biden and his family enterprise accepted a five million dollar payment,
if you will, from a foreign national as Vice president
in exchange for specific acts that were taken. Now, James
Comer has subpoenaed the document along along with Chuck Grassley,
but his committee has subpoened it. They had one deadline,
(02:25):
the FBI did not meet that deadline. They were given
a second deadline and the FBI is yet to turn
it over. And the Bureau says that Christopher ray Well
he offered Chairman Comer the opportunity to view the document
in a secure setting. When I read that yesterday, I said,
all right, well that might be a middle ground that's acceptable.
Until last night on TV I had James comeron, and
(02:47):
James Comer says to me, Yeah, this one problem is
there's going to be reactions all over it. Here with
reaction is the House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is
with us, Sir, how are.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
You well, Shawn?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
You yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:01):
You know so.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I thought I was pretty smart. Yesterday. I read all
the articles about your phone call with Director Ray and
I'm like, okay, well, Director Ray is coming around a
little bit. At least he's willing us to allow you
to see it in a closed door environment, maybe in
a skiff or something like that. Uh. And not one
article that I read mentioned the word redacted. And it's
(03:22):
not often I get surprised on my own show, and
I'm like, of course it's since redacted. I should have
known better, and of course it wasn't covered properly. But
but that's a big deal. And what's your reaction to
that phone call yesterday?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Well, since since I went on your show today, we've
we've gotten another call from the FBI because I said,
we're going to proceed with the contempt of Congress charges.
We're going to have a markup in the Oversight Committee
next week, and it was going to be the first
thing on the on the docket. We got a call
from the FBI say, and they would bring the form
(03:55):
to the capital on Monday and let me and Jamie
are asking, who's my democratic counterpart on the committee view it?
And uh, you know, I took the call like they
would try to limit the redaction. So we're going to
see what happens.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
But Sehn, well did they did they in any way
suggest that it would be redacted?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Well, no, because they heard I think they were watching
my interview on your TV show last night.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I'm very grateful to hear that the head of the
FBI is is a viewer of Sean Hannity. I doubt
he's a fan. You know. I have the irs hitting
my guts, you know, because they just thought it me.
It's like, oh, Hannity, pull the file. Hannity, pull the file.
So I figure, now the FBI, Hannity, pull the file.
Here we go now with that with them, I'm glad
he's watching the show. But the reality is they didn't
(04:45):
tell you if it was going to be redacted or not.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Well, I think they listen to my concern about excessive redaction.
Did they want to redact the human source? That's time.
And if we had the document and made it public,
which I'm not saying we would. If we did, we
would protect the human source. But you have to understand
Shaw with the phone call, and we went through this
for for forty days, the director never would even admit
(05:11):
that they had the form, that the form existed until
grastually informing that we had already read the form. So
from the from a whistleblower. So you know, the the
question that we have is what has the FBI done
to investigate this? You look at the at the Steele dossier,
there's more, uh, there's more credibility and a and a
(05:35):
stronger source with this accusation on the Biden ten twenty
three form than there ever was with the Steele dossier.
But they went all in on the Steel dos it?
You know, I wouldn't be a bit surprised, Sean. And
this is based on conversations I've had with with people
in the FDI that are that are communicating with us.
If they have never even investigated this allegation because when
(05:58):
you read the allegation, it's kind of hard to believe
until you watch the press conference that we had the
Oversck Committee had three weeks ago where we showed the
Biden set up shell company for the specific purpose of
laundering money from foreign nationals that we're benefiting from American
policy and American four and eight when Joe Biden was
(06:20):
Vice president. Then a laphoulb goes offices. Oh my god,
this accusation has merit, and that's what we want to know.
We're trying to follow the money and we're trying to
figure out where in the hell's this money coming from.
I mean, why are the Biden family members getting this money.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Let me go to the source for a second. Now
you've had the document, you know who the sources. You
already know what's in the document. But yet what's that sir?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
We don't possess the document. We viewed the document.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
You viewed the document, so you know what's in the document. Yes,
and okay, and you find your source to be credible.
I doubt you and Senator Grassley would say it's credible
if in fact it wasn't, I would find that hard
to believe. Why would you put yourself out there only
to be, you know, have this blow up in your face.
That makes no sense. But this document very clearly you're
(07:12):
saying connects money given to the Biden family. If I'm
not mistaken, five million dollars in exchange for specific acts
that Joe Biden took as vice president? Is that? Is
that accurate?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
That's pretty accurate. And remember when we had that press
confert two weeks ago, we showed similar activity in Romania,
and this country that's mentioned in the ten twenty three
form what we haven't disclosed yet, it's not Romania. So
there's a pattern here that would suggest that this allegation
has merit. And look, we haven't even gotten through all
(07:48):
the bank accounts, but it looks like there are probably
going to be Eastree Media's governors. The Washington Post for
three weeks implied that we made this up, there never
was a two twenty three form, that there never was
a whistleblower. Then it comes out yesterday and Ray basically
admits that you know, they have the ten twenty three
(08:09):
form and all that, and now the Washington Post is
discrediting the whistleblower. They don't even know who the whistleblower is.
I mean, the media in their hypocrisy, in their quest
to defend the indefensible with the Biden is breasthtaking. But
the one thing that the defenders in the media won't
accept is this family created all these shell companies and
(08:30):
they're getting millions of dollars. We've already proven that with
bank records. I mean, the fact that this allegation was
made and probably never been investigated should be of concern
to everyone.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Right The reason that I would have the same suspicion
you have is because, frankly, the FBI deserves that suspicion.
We now know from the Dorum report, just like we
knew from the Michael Horowitz report that in fact that
the FBI, we now know from Durham never should have
(09:05):
opened Operation Crossfire Hurricane, that that investigation was completely unwarranted.
We know that it was based on a bought and
paid for Russian disinformation, unverifiable, now debunked dossier that was
paid for by by Hillary Clinton. We know that the
FBI ran with this hook line and sinker even after
(09:28):
they found out the Christopher Steele, the author of the dossier,
couldn't even you know, accept a million dollar bounty that
the FBI offered him if he could corroborate the dossier.
And from there we know that the sub source, dan Chenko,
he said, this was bart talk. This, this was never
meant for anything as serious as a presidential election. And
(09:50):
yet the FBI used that for a full year as
the foundation of not one, but four FISA applications. It's
as on the top of a Pfizer application verified it
was unverifiable. Okay, that's the FBI putting their their's cinderblocks
on the scale of an election in twenty sixteen. Now,
Donald Trump still managed to win that election. Now in
(10:13):
twenty twenty, they take it to a whole new level.
And this is where this goes hand in hand or
it's in tandem with your investigation. And that is in
December twenty nineteen, the FBI has a copy of Hunter
Biden's laptop and according to John Solomon just thenews dot com,
he said that the FBI verified the authenticity of that laptop.
(10:37):
By the way, all you had to do is open
it and you see pictures of naked Hunter and hookers
and smoking crack cocaine and et cetera. Et cetera, on
top of other incriminating information, even about his own father.
So they could have probably verified the authenticity of that
much earlier, but anyway, so they authenticated it, but in
(10:58):
spite of that, they I ever got to the bottom
of it, even though we know there were specific crimes
right there in broad daylight for anybody to see, including
the drug use and prostit prostitution, et cetera. And then
by the time we're leading into the months up to
the lead up of the twenty twenty election, we know
that the FBI was meeting weekly with big tech companies
(11:22):
warning them that could be victims of a misinformation campaign,
and that misinformation campaign might be about Joe Biden or
it might be about Hunter Biden. Okay, so then the
laptop comes out vis a vis the New York Post.
Now don't forget that the FBI not only had their
copy way earlier, but they also knew Rudy Giuliani had
a copy, so they knew the odds were high that
(11:43):
this thing was going to leak at some point. And
then they scare the live and hell out of big
tech companies, making them think that whatever information is about
Hunter or Joe Biden is misinformation because the FBI has
been telling us that every week. Is that a fair summation?
Speaker 5 (11:58):
That's one Armers Accuray, Okay, So then why should we
trust the FBI when it comes to anything in terms
of an an investigative work involving the bidens right. Well,
the fact that that's a perfect example, you know, if
you remember Sean when the computer repair guy gave the
f the computer and then they came back and looked
(12:21):
at it.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
After they looked at it, they came back and visited
the repair guy and said do you have did you
make any copies? And he said no. Well, they assumed
that that was it and and that the case was closed.
What they didn't realize was their Workhofs Spade thankfully for
you know, for transparency area. That's a good thing. And
(12:42):
now we all have a copy of the laptop. But
the but the that was an example the FBI trying
to cover this up and all along the way with
what you're seeing with the whistleblower, the irs they were
told to stand out by the dj told to stand
down on the obvious tax violation from Hunter Biden. If
the IRF even knew about the shell companies. I can't
(13:04):
imagine you can multiply times ten what type of tax
violations I'll have. Not only was he not paying taxes
on his reportable income, he had all this income he
was hiding in these shell companies, but the dj told
him to stand out.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Well, by the way, didn't they arrest Paul Mattiford on
the issue of not registering as required by the pharaoh laws.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Jonathan Turley talks about that all the time. You know,
that's another thing you could nail Hunter Biden on being
an unrestured portage. But then you've got this ten twenty
three form and we don't know for sure because the
FBL won't tell us. But I don't believe that this
has ever even been investigated because the claim is is
very outrageous until you look at what we produced a
(13:50):
few weeks ago to where they have created these shell companies,
and there is a pattern of money being wired to
the Biden shell companies from foreign nationals in countries where
Joe Biden was in charge of foreign policy at the
end of the Biden administration.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
All right, quick break more with House Overside Committee Chair
James Comer on the other side, don't forget our town
hall with Donald Trump tonight from Iowa. All right, we
continue with House Overside Committee Chair James Comer is with us.
Let's assume you get the document and they're not denying
it's a real document, and we know who the whistleblower is.
I would imagine that a full fledged investigation by the
(14:28):
FBI is going to go into whether or not Joe
Biden took a five million dollar bribe and performed acts
as Vice president in exchange for that money. That sounds
like influenced pedaling at the highest level and a betrayal
of his country.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
It's the most serious accusation that's ever been leveled against
any American politician, in my opinion. But see, you look,
we think a similar thing happened in Romania. We have
some more countries we're going to present in the near
future where the same type of activity happen, and Joe
Biden lends in air force too. There he flies off.
(15:04):
Less than two weeks later, money starts flowing into these
shell companies from that the Biden's created. I mean, there's
some bad stuff going on. And for the FBI to
slow walk us and not even admit that that form
existed until we tell them you've seen it. It says
a lot about the current state of the FBI in America.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Well, and now they're harassing John Paul mac Isaac, the
the computer repair guy. Apparently, I guess they've been going
after him. The lawyers for Hunter Biden. Did you hear
about that?
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Oh, listen, the lawyer Sean for Hunter Biden. In my opinion,
have more have crossed the line with intimidation tactics, with
the with the tactics that they're trying to do to
dissuade people from communicating with us, to threaten today. I mean,
it's just my bogs what's going on here. And the
(16:02):
media is instead of having any sense of curiosity about
how the Biden family receives all these payments or.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Whether they just they just give them a passacking me. Well, welcome,
Welcome to my world. That's the world I live in
every day. But Congressman, we're not going to give up
following this story. It's too important. We really appreciate your

Michael High, how are you glad you Coltzar? I wish
you with with us in Iowa.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
Thanks, Sean. You know, I don't know how much dot
the GOP has put into this But you know, when
you're trying to predict what the left's gonna do, you
you've got to think what's the worst case, what's the
most diaball of cool, disruptive thing that they can do?
And I honestly believe they're gonna let Donald Trump get
(19:07):
the nomination and then they're going the DC Circuit is
going to set everything aside. They're going to devote their
time and resources one hundred percent into getting an indictment,
a trial, and a conviction within three or four months.
So what is what's going to happen when it comes September,
(19:27):
our our nominee for president is put in prison? Well,
what have you thought that far ahead?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
What are they Well, I've thought that far ahead. First
of all. You know, it does it complicate things if
everything you're predicting is true? Yeah, complicates things a lot.
Now we know that the New York trial date with
Alvin Bragg in that Total BS case in New York,
uh that begins in mid March. Mid March happens to
(19:54):
be the middle of the primary season. So is the
timing a little bit suspect? In my mind? Of course
it is is all of this or a lot of
this political or Letitia James, the ag Remember you had
both Alvin Bragg and ag Letitia James run campaign saying
they're going to go after one man, Donald Trump, one organization,
(20:17):
the Trump organization, one family, the Trump family. That's what
they said they would do. So that's happening. As it
relates to issues involving Georgia, they're talking about July or August,
you know, possible charges hanging out there. I don't know
what the status of the Special Council is, except that anecdotally,
(20:41):
the people that I talked to are giving me information
and saying that the level of scrutiny has been intense,
and the number of people that have been called in
have been many, and that he seems to be going
down multiple paths. But it's interesting we hear about the
Special Council against Donald Trump. When's the last time you
heard a peep about the Special Council looking into Joe Biden.
(21:06):
We haven't had a single word said about him, And
it just shows you every and confirms again yet the
latest example. I think in America, equal justice of our
laws is non existent. I think equal application of our
laws is nonexistent, and we have a dual justice system.
That's why, you know, Jim Jordan and his committee are
(21:27):
looking into whether the FBI is politicized and the A
the DOJ has been weaponized. So we've got a lot
of answers, you know, to come in the future. But
that obviously, and I'll ask President Trump about this tonight,
that is not to this point deterred him. Does not
seem like it will deter him. If I had to bet,
(21:47):
it won't deter him. And he's going to stay in
the race, and he's going to fight to the bitter end.
And do I think that the left in this country
wants him in an orange jumpsuit and put away forever?
I do, and they they you know, we spent three
years on the Russia hoax and all these networks that lied,
you know, three broadcast networks ABC, NBC, CBS, MSDNC, fake news, CNN.
(22:13):
You know, look at the New York Times and the
Washington Post get pulletzers for wrong stories, and it turns
out to all have been completely a phony investigation. Three years.
How many more times are we going to have to
go through this? Why Why wasn't Joe Biden's you know,
University of Delaware, or you Penn Offices rated when they
(22:37):
found out that they had, or as Home rated when
they found out he had top secret classified documents. You know,
this ought to scare every American because at this point
now we're at a tipping point, because if you don't
have equal justice under the law, you don't have a constitution. Thanks. Look,
I appreciate it. All right, Let's go to Kevin is
(22:59):
in Idaho. Kevin, Hi, how are you welcome to IOW.
It's the Sean Hennedy Show.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
Hey, Sewan, thanks for having me. I'd like to talk
about Speaker McCarthy. He was on your radio show and
your TV show multiple times with that little white piece
of paper talking about if we gave the Republicans the
majority and he got the speakership, that the first thing
that he would do was repiled those eighty seven thousand
(23:24):
IRS agents. And he had a chance to do it,
and he didn't. He took one point four billion dollars
I think away from him, which is going to give
us what eighty three thousand IRIS agents. Then Republicans in
the House had the big debate to elect McCarthy did
a speakership, and they put that provision in there, you know,
(23:46):
the one vote to get him out, and he did
exactly what he said he wasn't going to do.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
So now it's all, well, that's the motion to vacate. Well,
he did part of what he said he would do.
He didn't do it at all. And I'm just giving
you my take.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Now.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Am I happy with this deal? Absolutely not. Am I
happy with the way the deal went down? No, absolutely not.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Do.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
I think he made a fundamental error by not regularly
informing and discussing what concessions, if any, that his caucus
would be willing to make. I think that was a
mistake on his part. You know, he lost seventy one
votes last night. That's a lot of votes. Whether or
not somebody brings up a motion to vacate, time will tell.
(24:31):
Whether or not the anger dissipates, time will tell. I
don't know, but certainly I would have preferred a much
stronger fight. I think he had a much stronger hand
than maybe he realized. And I think that the Republicans
just stood back and said, we did our job. We
raised the debt ceiling, we're being physically responsible, We're keeping
(24:52):
our promises to the American people. Where's your debt ceiling
increase billed because we can't see it. He already had
forty four senators that would stop cloture, and that means
the Senate wasn't going to pass a bill. Biden can't
pass a bill on his own, So the White House
was pretty much painted into a corner. And I think
(25:13):
he could have taken greater advantage of that.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Yeah, I think so too. Do you think that if
the Republicans would have tried to push that bill that
they passed that it wouldn't have made it through the Senate?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Do I think it would have? It wouldn't have mattered
at that point. You know, Look, it was a one
of the things that bothers me is everybody really starts
believing that America is going to default as of the
drop dead date given by Janet Yellen of June the fifth.
That was that was never gonna happen under any circumstances, because,
(25:48):
you know, we could have paid our debts, we could
have paid our military, we could have taken care of
Social Security and Medicare. Because money is coming in every
single day to the federal government. They're called taxes, and
they received them every day and use that money to
pay your bills, to pay your debts, to pay the military,
to pay Social Security, to pay Medicare. I mean they take,
(26:08):
they're taking in record numbers of money. So, you know,
trying to force Congress to live within their means always
seems to be difficult. I think up to this point,
as far as I was concerned, McCarthy was doing great,
and I think this was probably his biggest test, and
I really was not particularly happy with the result, is
(26:33):
my answer. I would not have voted for the bill.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Yeah, mister Henny, do you think tonight, when you have
that town hall of the president, you could ask him
one question.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
I'll take requests. I can't guarantee you go ahead.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Okay, do you think he would support term limits in
Congress in the Senate?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
I think he's answered that. I'm not sure if he
is he for term limits, I don't think so, But
you know, if I have time, we had a lot
of ground to cover tonight. We got an economy that's
in shambles. We've got foreign policy that's a disaster. We
got a new access of evil that the world is
dealing with. Uh, he's got, you know, people trying to
kill him every single day. Politically, and so there's there's
(27:10):
a lot to get to tonight and I've got to
and the audience, I gotta share some time with them,
which annoys me, but I'm going to do it. I'm
teasing for the people of Iowa. I love the people
of Iowa. Uh but you know we're gonna We're gonna
try and cover as much ground as we can. One
thing I will tell you, this town hall is not
going to be like Fake New CNN. I am not
there to debate the candidate. I am not there to
(27:32):
argue with the candidate. I am there to ask questions
and let the candidate give their answer and let the
audience ask their questions. That's my job tonight. That will
be a great distinction. Oh, Hannity, you and easy You
aren't like whatever those whoever the person was on fake
News CNN that did hers, Okay, she was doing that
(27:54):
show for an audience, a group of fellow journalists, so
she'd be accepted into that elite, you know, ridiculous blue
check mark media cult on Twitter that talk to themselves
in a bubble, that are out of touch with we
the people. So I'm doing the show so you can
(28:15):
get answers from a presidential candidate that's leading for the
Republican Party. It's not about me debating the president and
people can fact check them all they want afterwards, but
the reality is I want to hear what he has
to say in his own words and actually let him
finish a thought, which was not very common during the
first one. Anyway, appreciate the call, Kevin. Glad you're out there, buddy,
(28:38):
eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn, you want to
be a part of the program. Let's get back to
our busy phones. Karen Marilyn nex Sean Hennity Show. Hey, Karen,
how are you fine?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Going on, I wanted to call a kind of talk
about the guy that called you yesterday about the Obamacare plan.
Before I say that, could I just say something about Linda.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
What did Linda put you up to this? She did right?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
She did not.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I have not spoken to Linda ever in my life,
but I would love to. I think she is the
greatest thing on your show.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Besides, I'm not the greatest thing on my show. Linda
is the greatest thing on my show. So are you
saying to me, I'm sorry, sir? Yes, Well, why don't
you Why do you sponsor the Linda you know McLaughlan podcast,
and you know, let her have her own show.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
You would never have time.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
I'm too busy doing Swan Hannity show.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Oh but you know you're becoming a big star now.
Apparently you're surpassing the host. You know, in the minds
of at least Karen and Maryland.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
You should have.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Karen, who I used to like. What's on your mind?
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Karen? Back to the guy that called you yesterday from
California about the Obama's care thing, Well that was the liberal.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We spent a lot of time with that guy.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I know, I know, and he he's very misguided. I
was on Obamacare because my company went out of business
and I couldn't pay Cobra, so I went on Obamacare.
And my premiums when I started were one hundred and
forty three dollars a month, and I said, well, that's
not so bad. I'm getting unemployment I can pay that.
(30:21):
That was starting in March. It went until December. January.
First I'd get my notice for my premium and it's
five hundred and twenty nine dollars a month.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
What so went from one hundred and forty to five
hundred and twenty nine, and I.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Said, okay, so I'm not a millionaire, and if I
could afford the five hundred dollars, I would have kept
paying the cobra.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
I quit paying everything, and I was without insurance. In
April of the following year, we went to file our
taxes and they asked me, did you have insurance all year?
And I said, no, well you have to pay a
five hundred dollars fine.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Yep, welcome to Obamacare. Tried to warn everybody. Nobody listened
to me, well nobody everybody ever noticed. Nobody ever listens
to me.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
I did notice that, And I'm sorry, I think that
that might be fake news because you have a thirty
million listeners.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
No, I think it's huge news that you got fined,
even though you know they they quadrupled, more than quadrupled
your your health care costs. You couldn't afford it, and
then they find you at the end of the process.
What do they think you're rich that now, all of
a sudden you can't afford a monthly payment, but you
can afford the fine. I mean, I mean, but this
is government, you know. Don't think these irs agents are
(31:38):
going after quote rich people, because even Janet Yellen said
ninety percent of these new agents are going to be
going after people that make under four hundred thousand dollars
a year. And I'll tell you why, because all those
rich people have people called accountants, and they have lawyers
that know every single loophole imaginable, and and they're doing
(32:00):
their taxes and they go over it with a fine
tooth calm. At least, if you have a brain, you
got to pay your taxes or else they will come
after you. So, you know what, the average person can't afford.
These accountants so very expensive. Trust me, I pay for them.
I pay for the lawyers too. I'm really sorry to
hear that. I really am. That's outrageous. That's outrageous bad.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I'm glad his wife is alive, and I'm glad everything
worked out for them. But he didn't tell you what
his premiums jumped to.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
So I felt kind of well, you're right. I mean,
there's only so much time I could give the guy
a number one, number two. You know, I think it
was pretty transparent where he was coming from. I mean,
there was nothing that Obama did there would be wrong
in his eyes, or nothing that Biden could do that's
wrong in his eyes. Appreciate it, Karen, you hang in there.
I'm sorry about all that. That's so unfair. Yeah, let's
(32:52):
go after the We're only going to go after the rich. Meanwhile,
they can't afford a healthcare premium. So let's find the lady.
Great your government looked can own for you. Now, don't
you want more big government
Well, we have come in your getas and saying you
a conscious cell will be dire and if you want
a little banging.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Un come along.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Would you want to try to make them look like
I made some compromise in the dead stealing and I didn't.
I made a compromise on the budget. We finally were
able to cut spending. We're the first Congress to vote
for cutting spending year over year. Let's go back to
pre COVID levels of spending. That's what we asked for.
We're not This deal doesn't do that. Do they still
have to worry about the Progressive Caucus and whether or
(00:39):
not your caucus will support Yes, they do, Okay, congress
Woman Jayabel, thank you so much. I have to worry. Yes,
they have to worry.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Fredom is back in stuff, Welcome to the Revolution, coming
to your sentence, don't talas and saying you a.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Conscious sun New Sean Hennity Show more I'm the Scenes,
information on freaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Right our two Sean Hennity Show told free it's eight
hundred and ninety four one. Shawn, you want to be
a part of the program. As we come to we
(01:20):
are in Des Moines, Iowa tonight for our town hall
with President candidate Donald J. Trump. It's going to be
a lot of fun. I'm sure. I hope you'll tune
in nine eastern on Fox This Apparently we have a
rowdy crowd down there already I have been told, but
that should be fine. So we had been awaiting. Now,
(01:40):
if you recall, there was a document that James Comer,
the head of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee,
he's the chairman, and Senator Charles Grassley right here of
Iowa have wanted from the FBI. And it had to
do with a very specif instance, a claim that Joe
(02:03):
Biden and his family enterprise accepted a five million dollar payment,
if you will, from a foreign national as Vice president
in exchange for specific acts that were taken. Now, James
Comer has subpoenaed the document along along with Chuck Grassley,
but his committee has subpoened it. They had one deadline,
(02:25):
the FBI did not meet that deadline. They were given
a second deadline and the FBI is yet to turn
it over. And the Bureau says that Christopher ray Well
he offered Chairman Comer the opportunity to view the document
in a secure setting. When I read that yesterday, I said,
all right, well that might be a middle ground that's acceptable.
Until last night on TV I had James comeron, and
(02:47):
James Comer says to me, Yeah, this one problem is
there's going to be reactions all over it. Here with
reaction is the House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is
with us, Sir, how are.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
You well, Shawn?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
You yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:01):
You know so.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I thought I was pretty smart. Yesterday. I read all
the articles about your phone call with Director Ray and
I'm like, okay, well, Director Ray is coming around a
little bit. At least he's willing us to allow you
to see it in a closed door environment, maybe in
a skiff or something like that. Uh. And not one
article that I read mentioned the word redacted. And it's
(03:22):
not often I get surprised on my own show, and
I'm like, of course it's since redacted. I should have
known better, and of course it wasn't covered properly. But
but that's a big deal. And what's your reaction to
that phone call yesterday?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Well, since since I went on your show today, we've
we've gotten another call from the FBI because I said,
we're going to proceed with the contempt of Congress charges.
We're going to have a markup in the Oversight Committee
next week, and it was going to be the first
thing on the on the docket. We got a call
from the FBI say, and they would bring the form
(03:55):
to the capital on Monday and let me and Jamie
are asking, who's my democratic counterpart on the committee view it?
And uh, you know, I took the call like they
would try to limit the redaction. So we're going to
see what happens.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
But Sehn, well did they did they in any way
suggest that it would be redacted?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Well, no, because they heard I think they were watching
my interview on your TV show last night.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I'm very grateful to hear that the head of the
FBI is is a viewer of Sean Hannity. I doubt
he's a fan. You know. I have the irs hitting
my guts, you know, because they just thought it me.
It's like, oh, Hannity, pull the file. Hannity, pull the file.
So I figure, now the FBI, Hannity, pull the file.
Here we go now with that with them, I'm glad
he's watching the show. But the reality is they didn't
(04:45):
tell you if it was going to be redacted or not.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Well, I think they listen to my concern about excessive redaction.
Did they want to redact the human source? That's time.
And if we had the document and made it public,
which I'm not saying we would. If we did, we
would protect the human source. But you have to understand
Shaw with the phone call, and we went through this
for for forty days, the director never would even admit
(05:11):
that they had the form, that the form existed until
grastually informing that we had already read the form. So
from the from a whistleblower. So you know, the the
question that we have is what has the FBI done
to investigate this? You look at the at the Steele dossier,
there's more, uh, there's more credibility and a and a
(05:35):
stronger source with this accusation on the Biden ten twenty
three form than there ever was with the Steele dossier.
But they went all in on the Steel dos it?
You know, I wouldn't be a bit surprised, Sean. And
this is based on conversations I've had with with people
in the FDI that are that are communicating with us.
If they have never even investigated this allegation because when
(05:58):
you read the allegation, it's kind of hard to believe
until you watch the press conference that we had the
Oversck Committee had three weeks ago where we showed the
Biden set up shell company for the specific purpose of
laundering money from foreign nationals that we're benefiting from American
policy and American four and eight when Joe Biden was
(06:20):
Vice president. Then a laphoulb goes offices. Oh my god,
this accusation has merit, and that's what we want to know.
We're trying to follow the money and we're trying to
figure out where in the hell's this money coming from.
I mean, why are the Biden family members getting this money.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Let me go to the source for a second. Now
you've had the document, you know who the sources. You
already know what's in the document. But yet what's that sir?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
We don't possess the document. We viewed the document.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
You viewed the document, so you know what's in the document. Yes,
and okay, and you find your source to be credible.
I doubt you and Senator Grassley would say it's credible
if in fact it wasn't, I would find that hard
to believe. Why would you put yourself out there only
to be, you know, have this blow up in your face.
That makes no sense. But this document very clearly you're
(07:12):
saying connects money given to the Biden family. If I'm
not mistaken, five million dollars in exchange for specific acts
that Joe Biden took as vice president? Is that? Is
that accurate?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
That's pretty accurate. And remember when we had that press
confert two weeks ago, we showed similar activity in Romania,
and this country that's mentioned in the ten twenty three
form what we haven't disclosed yet, it's not Romania. So
there's a pattern here that would suggest that this allegation
has merit. And look, we haven't even gotten through all
(07:48):
the bank accounts, but it looks like there are probably
going to be Eastree Media's governors. The Washington Post for
three weeks implied that we made this up, there never
was a two twenty three form, that there never was
a whistleblower. Then it comes out yesterday and Ray basically
admits that you know, they have the ten twenty three
(08:09):
form and all that, and now the Washington Post is
discrediting the whistleblower. They don't even know who the whistleblower is.
I mean, the media in their hypocrisy, in their quest
to defend the indefensible with the Biden is breasthtaking. But
the one thing that the defenders in the media won't
accept is this family created all these shell companies and
(08:30):
they're getting millions of dollars. We've already proven that with
bank records. I mean, the fact that this allegation was
made and probably never been investigated should be of concern
to everyone.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Right The reason that I would have the same suspicion
you have is because, frankly, the FBI deserves that suspicion.
We now know from the Dorum report, just like we
knew from the Michael Horowitz report that in fact that
the FBI, we now know from Durham never should have
(09:05):
opened Operation Crossfire Hurricane, that that investigation was completely unwarranted.
We know that it was based on a bought and
paid for Russian disinformation, unverifiable, now debunked dossier that was
paid for by by Hillary Clinton. We know that the
FBI ran with this hook line and sinker even after
(09:28):
they found out the Christopher Steele, the author of the dossier,
couldn't even you know, accept a million dollar bounty that
the FBI offered him if he could corroborate the dossier.
And from there we know that the sub source, dan Chenko,
he said, this was bart talk. This, this was never
meant for anything as serious as a presidential election. And
(09:50):
yet the FBI used that for a full year as
the foundation of not one, but four FISA applications. It's
as on the top of a Pfizer application verified it
was unverifiable. Okay, that's the FBI putting their their's cinderblocks
on the scale of an election in twenty sixteen. Now,
Donald Trump still managed to win that election. Now in
(10:13):
twenty twenty, they take it to a whole new level.
And this is where this goes hand in hand or
it's in tandem with your investigation. And that is in
December twenty nineteen, the FBI has a copy of Hunter
Biden's laptop and according to John Solomon just thenews dot com,
he said that the FBI verified the authenticity of that laptop.
(10:37):
By the way, all you had to do is open
it and you see pictures of naked Hunter and hookers
and smoking crack cocaine and et cetera. Et cetera, on
top of other incriminating information, even about his own father.
So they could have probably verified the authenticity of that
much earlier, but anyway, so they authenticated it, but in
(10:58):
spite of that, they I ever got to the bottom
of it, even though we know there were specific crimes
right there in broad daylight for anybody to see, including
the drug use and prostit prostitution, et cetera. And then
by the time we're leading into the months up to
the lead up of the twenty twenty election, we know
that the FBI was meeting weekly with big tech companies
(11:22):
warning them that could be victims of a misinformation campaign,
and that misinformation campaign might be about Joe Biden or
it might be about Hunter Biden. Okay, so then the
laptop comes out vis a vis the New York Post.
Now don't forget that the FBI not only had their
copy way earlier, but they also knew Rudy Giuliani had
a copy, so they knew the odds were high that
(11:43):
this thing was going to leak at some point. And
then they scare the live and hell out of big
tech companies, making them think that whatever information is about
Hunter or Joe Biden is misinformation because the FBI has
been telling us that every week. Is that a fair summation?
Speaker 5 (11:58):
That's one Armers Accuray, Okay, So then why should we
trust the FBI when it comes to anything in terms
of an an investigative work involving the bidens right. Well,
the fact that that's a perfect example, you know, if
you remember Sean when the computer repair guy gave the
f the computer and then they came back and looked
(12:21):
at it.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
After they looked at it, they came back and visited
the repair guy and said do you have did you
make any copies? And he said no. Well, they assumed
that that was it and and that the case was closed.
What they didn't realize was their Workhofs Spade thankfully for
you know, for transparency area. That's a good thing. And
(12:42):
now we all have a copy of the laptop. But
the but the that was an example the FBI trying
to cover this up and all along the way with
what you're seeing with the whistleblower, the irs they were
told to stand out by the dj told to stand
down on the obvious tax violation from Hunter Biden. If
the IRF even knew about the shell companies. I can't
(13:04):
imagine you can multiply times ten what type of tax
violations I'll have. Not only was he not paying taxes
on his reportable income, he had all this income he
was hiding in these shell companies, but the dj told
him to stand out.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Well, by the way, didn't they arrest Paul Mattiford on
the issue of not registering as required by the pharaoh laws.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Jonathan Turley talks about that all the time. You know,
that's another thing you could nail Hunter Biden on being
an unrestured portage. But then you've got this ten twenty
three form and we don't know for sure because the
FBL won't tell us. But I don't believe that this
has ever even been investigated because the claim is is
very outrageous until you look at what we produced a
(13:50):
few weeks ago to where they have created these shell companies,
and there is a pattern of money being wired to
the Biden shell companies from foreign nationals in countries where
Joe Biden was in charge of foreign policy at the
end of the Biden administration.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
All right, quick break more with House Overside Committee Chair
James Comer on the other side, don't forget our town
hall with Donald Trump tonight from Iowa. All right, we
continue with House Overside Committee Chair James Comer is with us.
Let's assume you get the document and they're not denying
it's a real document, and we know who the whistleblower is.
I would imagine that a full fledged investigation by the
(14:28):
FBI is going to go into whether or not Joe
Biden took a five million dollar bribe and performed acts
as Vice president in exchange for that money. That sounds
like influenced pedaling at the highest level and a betrayal
of his country.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
It's the most serious accusation that's ever been leveled against
any American politician, in my opinion. But see, you look,
we think a similar thing happened in Romania. We have
some more countries we're going to present in the near
future where the same type of activity happen, and Joe
Biden lends in air force too. There he flies off.
(15:04):
Less than two weeks later, money starts flowing into these
shell companies from that the Biden's created. I mean, there's
some bad stuff going on. And for the FBI to
slow walk us and not even admit that that form
existed until we tell them you've seen it. It says
a lot about the current state of the FBI in America.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Well, and now they're harassing John Paul mac Isaac, the
the computer repair guy. Apparently, I guess they've been going
after him. The lawyers for Hunter Biden. Did you hear
about that?
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Oh, listen, the lawyer Sean for Hunter Biden. In my opinion,
have more have crossed the line with intimidation tactics, with
the with the tactics that they're trying to do to
dissuade people from communicating with us, to threaten today. I mean,
it's just my bogs what's going on here. And the
(16:02):
media is instead of having any sense of curiosity about
how the Biden family receives all these payments or.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Whether they just they just give them a passacking me. Well, welcome,
Welcome to my world. That's the world I live in
every day. But Congressman, we're not going to give up
following this story. It's too important. We really appreciate your

Michael High, how are you glad you Coltzar? I wish
you with with us in Iowa.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
Thanks, Sean. You know, I don't know how much dot
the GOP has put into this But you know, when
you're trying to predict what the left's gonna do, you
you've got to think what's the worst case, what's the
most diaball of cool, disruptive thing that they can do?
And I honestly believe they're gonna let Donald Trump get
(19:07):
the nomination and then they're going the DC Circuit is
going to set everything aside. They're going to devote their
time and resources one hundred percent into getting an indictment,
a trial, and a conviction within three or four months.
So what is what's going to happen when it comes September,
(19:27):
our our nominee for president is put in prison? Well,
what have you thought that far ahead?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
What are they Well, I've thought that far ahead. First
of all. You know, it does it complicate things if
everything you're predicting is true? Yeah, complicates things a lot.
Now we know that the New York trial date with
Alvin Bragg in that Total BS case in New York,
uh that begins in mid March. Mid March happens to
(19:54):
be the middle of the primary season. So is the
timing a little bit suspect? In my mind? Of course
it is is all of this or a lot of
this political or Letitia James, the ag Remember you had
both Alvin Bragg and ag Letitia James run campaign saying
they're going to go after one man, Donald Trump, one organization,
(20:17):
the Trump organization, one family, the Trump family. That's what
they said they would do. So that's happening. As it
relates to issues involving Georgia, they're talking about July or August,
you know, possible charges hanging out there. I don't know
what the status of the Special Council is, except that anecdotally,
(20:41):
the people that I talked to are giving me information
and saying that the level of scrutiny has been intense,
and the number of people that have been called in
have been many, and that he seems to be going
down multiple paths. But it's interesting we hear about the
Special Council against Donald Trump. When's the last time you
heard a peep about the Special Council looking into Joe Biden.
(21:06):
We haven't had a single word said about him, And
it just shows you every and confirms again yet the
latest example. I think in America, equal justice of our
laws is non existent. I think equal application of our
laws is nonexistent, and we have a dual justice system.
That's why, you know, Jim Jordan and his committee are
(21:27):
looking into whether the FBI is politicized and the A
the DOJ has been weaponized. So we've got a lot
of answers, you know, to come in the future. But
that obviously, and I'll ask President Trump about this tonight,
that is not to this point deterred him. Does not
seem like it will deter him. If I had to bet,
(21:47):
it won't deter him. And he's going to stay in
the race, and he's going to fight to the bitter end.
And do I think that the left in this country
wants him in an orange jumpsuit and put away forever?
I do, and they they you know, we spent three
years on the Russia hoax and all these networks that lied,
you know, three broadcast networks ABC, NBC, CBS, MSDNC, fake news, CNN.
(22:13):
You know, look at the New York Times and the
Washington Post get pulletzers for wrong stories, and it turns
out to all have been completely a phony investigation. Three years.
How many more times are we going to have to
go through this? Why Why wasn't Joe Biden's you know,
University of Delaware, or you Penn Offices rated when they
(22:37):
found out that they had, or as Home rated when
they found out he had top secret classified documents. You know,
this ought to scare every American because at this point
now we're at a tipping point, because if you don't
have equal justice under the law, you don't have a constitution. Thanks. Look,
I appreciate it. All right, Let's go to Kevin is
(22:59):
in Idaho. Kevin, Hi, how are you welcome to IOW.
It's the Sean Hennedy Show.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
Hey, Sewan, thanks for having me. I'd like to talk
about Speaker McCarthy. He was on your radio show and
your TV show multiple times with that little white piece
of paper talking about if we gave the Republicans the
majority and he got the speakership, that the first thing
that he would do was repiled those eighty seven thousand
(23:24):
IRS agents. And he had a chance to do it,
and he didn't. He took one point four billion dollars
I think away from him, which is going to give
us what eighty three thousand IRIS agents. Then Republicans in
the House had the big debate to elect McCarthy did
a speakership, and they put that provision in there, you know,
(23:46):
the one vote to get him out, and he did
exactly what he said he wasn't going to do.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
So now it's all, well, that's the motion to vacate. Well,
he did part of what he said he would do.
He didn't do it at all. And I'm just giving
you my take.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Now.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Am I happy with this deal? Absolutely not. Am I
happy with the way the deal went down? No, absolutely not.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Do.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
I think he made a fundamental error by not regularly
informing and discussing what concessions, if any, that his caucus
would be willing to make. I think that was a
mistake on his part. You know, he lost seventy one
votes last night. That's a lot of votes. Whether or
not somebody brings up a motion to vacate, time will tell.
(24:31):
Whether or not the anger dissipates, time will tell. I
don't know, but certainly I would have preferred a much
stronger fight. I think he had a much stronger hand
than maybe he realized. And I think that the Republicans
just stood back and said, we did our job. We
raised the debt ceiling, we're being physically responsible, We're keeping
(24:52):
our promises to the American people. Where's your debt ceiling
increase billed because we can't see it. He already had
forty four senators that would stop cloture, and that means
the Senate wasn't going to pass a bill. Biden can't
pass a bill on his own, So the White House
was pretty much painted into a corner. And I think
(25:13):
he could have taken greater advantage of that.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Yeah, I think so too. Do you think that if
the Republicans would have tried to push that bill that
they passed that it wouldn't have made it through the Senate?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Do I think it would have? It wouldn't have mattered
at that point. You know, Look, it was a one
of the things that bothers me is everybody really starts
believing that America is going to default as of the
drop dead date given by Janet Yellen of June the fifth.
That was that was never gonna happen under any circumstances, because,
(25:48):
you know, we could have paid our debts, we could
have paid our military, we could have taken care of
Social Security and Medicare. Because money is coming in every
single day to the federal government. They're called taxes, and
they received them every day and use that money to
pay your bills, to pay your debts, to pay the military,
to pay Social Security, to pay Medicare. I mean they take,
(26:08):
they're taking in record numbers of money. So, you know,
trying to force Congress to live within their means always
seems to be difficult. I think up to this point,
as far as I was concerned, McCarthy was doing great,
and I think this was probably his biggest test, and
I really was not particularly happy with the result, is
(26:33):
my answer. I would not have voted for the bill.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Yeah, mister Henny, do you think tonight, when you have
that town hall of the president, you could ask him
one question.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
I'll take requests. I can't guarantee you go ahead.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Okay, do you think he would support term limits in
Congress in the Senate?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
I think he's answered that. I'm not sure if he
is he for term limits, I don't think so, But
you know, if I have time, we had a lot
of ground to cover tonight. We got an economy that's
in shambles. We've got foreign policy that's a disaster. We
got a new access of evil that the world is
dealing with. Uh, he's got, you know, people trying to
kill him every single day. Politically, and so there's there's
(27:10):
a lot to get to tonight and I've got to
and the audience, I gotta share some time with them,
which annoys me, but I'm going to do it. I'm
teasing for the people of Iowa. I love the people
of Iowa. Uh but you know we're gonna We're gonna
try and cover as much ground as we can. One
thing I will tell you, this town hall is not
going to be like Fake New CNN. I am not
there to debate the candidate. I am not there to
(27:32):
argue with the candidate. I am there to ask questions
and let the candidate give their answer and let the
audience ask their questions. That's my job tonight. That will
be a great distinction. Oh, Hannity, you and easy You
aren't like whatever those whoever the person was on fake
News CNN that did hers, Okay, she was doing that
(27:54):
show for an audience, a group of fellow journalists, so
she'd be accepted into that elite, you know, ridiculous blue
check mark media cult on Twitter that talk to themselves
in a bubble, that are out of touch with we
the people. So I'm doing the show so you can
(28:15):
get answers from a presidential candidate that's leading for the
Republican Party. It's not about me debating the president and
people can fact check them all they want afterwards, but
the reality is I want to hear what he has
to say in his own words and actually let him
finish a thought, which was not very common during the
first one. Anyway, appreciate the call, Kevin. Glad you're out there, buddy,
(28:38):
eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn, you want to
be a part of the program. Let's get back to
our busy phones. Karen Marilyn nex Sean Hennity Show. Hey, Karen,
how are you fine?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Going on, I wanted to call a kind of talk
about the guy that called you yesterday about the Obamacare plan.
Before I say that, could I just say something about Linda.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
What did Linda put you up to this? She did right?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
She did not.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I have not spoken to Linda ever in my life,
but I would love to. I think she is the
greatest thing on your show.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Besides, I'm not the greatest thing on my show. Linda
is the greatest thing on my show. So are you
saying to me, I'm sorry, sir? Yes, Well, why don't
you Why do you sponsor the Linda you know McLaughlan podcast,
and you know, let her have her own show.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
You would never have time.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
I'm too busy doing Swan Hannity show.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Oh but you know you're becoming a big star now.
Apparently you're surpassing the host. You know, in the minds
of at least Karen and Maryland.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
You should have.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Karen, who I used to like. What's on your mind?
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Karen? Back to the guy that called you yesterday from
California about the Obama's care thing, Well that was the liberal.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We spent a lot of time with that guy.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I know, I know, and he he's very misguided. I
was on Obamacare because my company went out of business
and I couldn't pay Cobra, so I went on Obamacare.
And my premiums when I started were one hundred and
forty three dollars a month, and I said, well, that's
not so bad. I'm getting unemployment I can pay that.
(30:21):
That was starting in March. It went until December. January.
First I'd get my notice for my premium and it's
five hundred and twenty nine dollars a month.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
What so went from one hundred and forty to five
hundred and twenty nine, and I.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Said, okay, so I'm not a millionaire, and if I
could afford the five hundred dollars, I would have kept
paying the cobra.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
I quit paying everything, and I was without insurance. In
April of the following year, we went to file our
taxes and they asked me, did you have insurance all year?
And I said, no, well you have to pay a
five hundred dollars fine.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Yep, welcome to Obamacare. Tried to warn everybody. Nobody listened
to me, well nobody everybody ever noticed. Nobody ever listens
to me.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
I did notice that, And I'm sorry, I think that
that might be fake news because you have a thirty
million listeners.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
No, I think it's huge news that you got fined,
even though you know they they quadrupled, more than quadrupled
your your health care costs. You couldn't afford it, and
then they find you at the end of the process.
What do they think you're rich that now, all of
a sudden you can't afford a monthly payment, but you
can afford the fine. I mean, I mean, but this
is government, you know. Don't think these irs agents are
(31:38):
going after quote rich people, because even Janet Yellen said
ninety percent of these new agents are going to be
going after people that make under four hundred thousand dollars
a year. And I'll tell you why, because all those
rich people have people called accountants, and they have lawyers
that know every single loophole imaginable, and and they're doing
(32:00):
their taxes and they go over it with a fine
tooth calm. At least, if you have a brain, you
got to pay your taxes or else they will come
after you. So, you know what, the average person can't afford.
These accountants so very expensive. Trust me, I pay for them.
I pay for the lawyers too. I'm really sorry to
hear that. I really am. That's outrageous. That's outrageous bad.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I'm glad his wife is alive, and I'm glad everything
worked out for them. But he didn't tell you what
his premiums jumped to.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
So I felt kind of well, you're right. I mean,
there's only so much time I could give the guy
a number one, number two. You know, I think it
was pretty transparent where he was coming from. I mean,
there was nothing that Obama did there would be wrong
in his eyes, or nothing that Biden could do that's
wrong in his eyes. Appreciate it, Karen, you hang in there.
I'm sorry about all that. That's so unfair. Yeah, let's
(32:52):
go after the We're only going to go after the rich. Meanwhile,
they can't afford a healthcare premium. So let's find the lady.
Great your government looked can own for you. Now, don't
you want more big government
