The White House is urging a new Ukraine defense package amid the Hunter Biden scandal. Next, the Milwaukee DA says that the Waukesha suspect s low bail was just a human error. Third, China is establishing naval bases on the Atlantic Ocean and finally, Angela Merkel is finally, finally retiring in Germany. All these stories and more ahead, on Human Events Daily with Charles Conoly ( )!
00:02:28.660Of course, we're talking about Hunter Biden's lucrative, lush deal as a board member of the Burisma Holdings Gas Corporation there in Ukraine.
00:02:39.340We all know what that money was about.
00:02:42.400And now when President Biden comes out and tells us that we have to worry very, very much about Ukraine,
00:02:47.720it's very interesting to a lot of people looking at this who see it for exactly what it is.
00:02:54.620So we're told that tomorrow, President Biden and President Putin of Russia are going to be holding a phone call discussing Ukraine and everything that goes beyond this.
00:03:05.400Now, what's interesting to me, though, is if you understand anything about Russian intelligence,
00:03:10.000about their capacity within the country of Ukraine, I guarantee you they already know everything that Hunter Biden was up to.
00:03:24.620I'm telling you, what we have is a tiny little thimble compared to what the Russians have on Hunter Biden.
00:03:32.120Obviously, just obviously, all the stuff that they were accusing the previous president of doing with Russia or, you know, just doing well overseas,
00:03:41.220I guarantee you Hunter Biden was doing that and 10 times worse.
00:03:45.060So listen to Hunter Biden talking about Ukraine when he went on, of all places, Jimmy Kimmel to discuss.
00:03:51.700You wrote in the book, you wrote in the book, because I do want to talk about this, you know, the Ukraine and, or Ukraine and, and it became some, an issue.
00:04:01.640It became something, it gave Donald Trump something to grab onto.
00:04:04.920He almost got, well, he did get impeached as a result of it.
00:04:08.100But you wrote, did I make a mistake by taking a seat on the board of a Ukrainian gas company?
00:04:21.500I meant what I wrote is that, uh, you know, go to the beginning is that, you know, I went to Yale Law School.
00:04:27.420Um, I served on, uh, at least a dozen boards before Burisma.
00:04:32.340I was a vice chairman of the board of Amtrak.
00:04:35.380Um, I was a chairman of the board of the, uh, World Food Program, U.S., largest, uh, supporting the largest humanitarian organization in the world.
00:04:43.240I had an expertise in corporate governance.
00:04:45.680I was asked to serve on the board for corporate governance.
00:04:48.200And I was a lawyer at, um, Boyd, Schiller, and Flexner, which was how I was first approached.
00:04:52.940However, what I didn't take into account was the way in which they would use the perception against my dad.
00:05:00.840And for that, I, I, I have, uh, I, I wouldn't do it again for that reason.
00:05:06.240Well, he, he went to different schools and he had a law degree and he was a lawyer.
00:05:22.020But back in June, there was a report that came out that the Department of Justice was investigating a lobbying firm linked to Hunter Biden and his activities in Ukraine.
00:05:33.420The Department of Justice is reportedly investigating a lobbying firm once hired by the Ukrainian energy company that in turn once employed Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden's son.
00:05:43.120The Burisma Holdings Company hired Blue Star Strategies.
00:05:46.620Remember that name, Blue Star Strategies, a multinational lobbying firm founded by alumni of the Clinton administration back in 2015.
00:05:53.980Hunter Biden sat on the Burisma board at that time.
00:05:58.020However, Blue Star did not file paperwork with the State Department declaring that it was lobbying for Burisma and most likely violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
00:06:10.660Folks, I'm going to step back for a second.
00:06:25.460This is not something new in human history.
00:06:27.960If you go back to European history, the Habsburgs, the Great Game, Central Europe, Austria, Hungary, Russia, Poland, Lithuanian, Commonwealth, etc.
00:07:39.840You will see so much better access to all your favorite conservative influencers, world leaders, and politicians, and also newsmakers or celebrities getting on.
00:08:20.420I did the name, Daryl Brooks, Daryl Brooks, all potential permutations of anything that he could have used to tweet about the Waukesha massacre.
00:08:30.760I couldn't find a single tweet from Jake Taper about Waukesha.
00:08:36.880There was some charity thing that he was involved with, and he was brought out to speak over the summer that he had talked about this, but not a single one.
00:08:43.780So understand, ladies and gentlemen, that when it comes to regime media, and Jake Taper is the leading regime propagandist in America, his voice is the mouthpiece of the regime.
00:08:56.680When you don't see him talking about something, story selection bias is actually one of the greatest crimes and the greatest powers of the regime propagandist, because what they don't tell you, what they omit, the stories that they don't elevate to a national level, like this horrific tragedy, but then they will highlight other situations.
00:09:23.120It shows you exactly what their agenda is.
00:09:27.540So, we, of course, are going to have to do the job that they are not going to do.
00:09:32.420In Waukesha, the Milwaukee DA had let this guy out over a domestic violence situation, over $1,000 bail, where he had actually, I kid you not, if you look at the police report, he is accused of hitting his girlfriend, I guess his former girlfriend now, with his car after chasing her down to a gas station.
00:09:53.120Listen to the Milwaukee DA, who's one of these corrupt DAs that made our list of the open prison DAs that we talked about a couple of weeks ago.
00:10:02.460Listen to how he tries to worm his way out of this.
00:10:13.920There was a public safety assessment that was done that characterized this situation as a high-risk situation.
00:10:20.920Our default position in this case, because of the laws in Wisconsin, is that we recommend higher amounts of cash.
00:10:26.600That's not what the law says, by the way.
00:10:28.220The law says that cash is only intended to bring the person back to court, and non-monetary conditions can be considered factoring in the dangerousness and the risk to the victim and other factors like that.
00:10:37.540Nonetheless, higher cash bail should have been recommended in this case.
00:10:42.020In talking to the ADA, what she indicated is that she did not have access to that public safety assessment.
00:12:33.740Honestly, I hope we do more because if there's anything I can do with this platform, if there's anything we can all do, it's helping these families out, especially at Christmastime.
00:12:41.160But I want to do give a nice shout out to the, what was it, the grannies, right?
00:12:47.460The grannies that were out there, the dancing grannies, they've actually returned back to the parades.
00:12:54.000They were just marching at a parade this weekend and they all wore white flowers attached to their lapels in memorial for their members that they lost.
00:13:02.700So I salute you and God bless you to all the dancing grannies and all the families affected by this horrific massacre that they don't want anyone talking about.
00:13:17.460Well, according to new reports, classified intelligence that's been released through the Wall Street Journal, U.S. intelligence believes that China is poised to establish its first ever permanent naval installation on the Atlantic Ocean.
00:13:34.100Where is this going to be? A deep water port in Equatorial Guinea on Africa's east coast.
00:13:40.140American officials who spoke with the Wall Street Journal indicated that the reports raised the prospect that Chinese warships under the control of the CCP would be able to rearm and refit opposite the east coast of the United States,
00:13:53.620a threat that is setting off alarm bells at the White House and the Pentagon.
00:13:57.040Last April, the commander of U.S. AFRICOM, General Townsend, first raised the possibility of this most significant threat of the PLA military Atlantic presence during Senate testimony,
00:14:07.020describing that Beijing is eyeing a military-useful naval facility on the Atlantic coast of Africa, right?
00:14:14.080Understand what is going on, ladies and gentlemen.
00:14:16.940China has been using Africa for years at this point to extract resources, to undermine their governments through debt-trap diplomacy.
00:14:25.440Of course, there was a coup, by the way, back in September in Equatorial Guinea, and I guarantee you that China is making sure that they can do everything they can to work directly with the military junta
00:14:37.920that's now taking control of Equatorial Guinea, and they are going to make any deal they want.
00:14:44.300And folks, they aren't just doing it there, they're doing it across Africa. Take a listen.
00:14:47.920Since the year of 2018, Forum on China-Africa Corporation in Beijing, China and Africa have enhanced their solidarity and mutual trust, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
00:15:00.960And China says it will further uphold the principles of sincerity, real results, enmity and good faith in the future cooperation with Africa.
00:15:09.000And the white paper also says China will continue to seek win-win opportunities while putting the bonds of the two above economic results,
00:15:18.180starting a new chapter for the China-Africa relation.
00:15:21.840In the past three years, the two has achieved remarkable results in economic aid, trade, investment, agriculture, infrastructure and industrialization.
00:15:32.300And data shows from year 2020 to 2021, the trade volume of the two had 38% growth year-on-year, reaching 185 billion yuan in 2021.
00:15:46.100And around 53 billion yuan new contracts were signed by Chinese companies in Africa, and that's a 22% growth year-on-year.
00:15:54.920The paper also says China will continuously improve the quality of exports to Africa.
00:16:00.120High-tech products, mechanic and electronic products have consisted half of the exports, and also China's imports of Africa's service industry,
00:16:11.700have reached 20% growth year-on-year, and China has become the second largest agricultural importer in Africa.
00:16:20.500And in the very difficult pandemic times, the cooperation between China and Africa still remains.
00:16:27.100China has donated a large amount of protective gears, testing equipment for nucleic acid tests,
00:16:34.720and China has donated more than 1 billion doses of vaccine against COVID to foreign countries and regions,
00:16:40.860and more than 50 countries and regions in Africa has received the aid.
00:16:46.240And Chinese medical professionals have also given medical trainings in the affected area in Africa,
00:16:51.700tutoring more than 10,000 local medical workers.
00:16:54.940Also, officials say Chinese people will always remember the help from Africa when it was hit by the catastrophic earthquake in 2008.
00:17:05.220In the future, China will continue to deepen the One Belt, One Road initiative with Africa
00:17:10.060and improve regional stability and creating a shared future for mankind.
00:17:15.040And this is why you talk to Human Events Daily.
00:17:17.340This is why you come to Human Events Daily.
00:17:18.820No one else is going to give you analysis of what China's plans and designs are for the world than right here.
00:17:25.100Ladies and gentlemen, the holiday season is upon us.
00:17:36.060Go to MyPillow.com, use promo code POSO, get your orders in.
00:17:40.100You know, we actually just did a couple of extra orders.
00:17:42.860And on Sunday, my wife, Tanya, was on the phone with MyPillow.
00:17:47.520There was, we wanted to do one order, but ship it to a couple of different places.
00:17:52.300And so she was able to call them on a Sunday afternoon after church.
00:17:56.740I was making a gingerbread house with Jack Jr.
00:18:12.000So really appreciate that level of customer support because I can only imagine what's going on in terms of the volume for them around Christmastime.
