00:00:54.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:01.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:13.000Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:23.000Joining us now is Congressman Russell Fry from the great state of South Carolina from the House Oversight Committee.
00:01:30.000There's some incredible breaking news that we want to cover.
00:01:33.000Congressman, thank you for making time.
00:01:35.000Walk us through this breaking news of the interviews you conducted with the transcribed interview with the former FBI supervisor, supervisory special agent.
00:01:44.000This is some bombshell stuff, Congressman.
00:01:46.000Yeah, look, tomorrow we have two IRS whistleblowers that are coming forward.
00:01:50.000One of them is Mr. Shapley, who's been well documented on the media talking about ways in which he was stonewalled.
00:01:58.000They allowed the statute of limitations to run.
00:02:01.000So you have these two IRS whistleblowers on the one hand that are coming tomorrow, which is going to be great.
00:02:06.000But we have right now FBI officials in Wilmington, Delaware who have corroborated key parts of Mr. Shapley's testimony that things were, that the investigation was kind of led off the reservation, so to speak, and that they weren't allowed to do their job.
00:02:26.000And so I think this is important to set that narrative that these guys are telling the truth.
00:02:31.000You have two career IRS people that have prosecuted and investigated some of the biggest international attack crimes in our country's history.
00:04:05.000I think there are questions that I have right now.
00:04:08.000You know, the U.S. attorney for Delaware, who the Democrats talk about was a Trump appointee, he says that he wasn't given clearance out of Washington or California or wherever.
00:04:18.000But there's some testimony from Mr. Shapley that seems to indicate that this might be on Mr. Weiss.
00:04:22.000And so this is part and parcel to what the oversight committee is investigating.
00:04:26.000I think it's really ridiculous that the Bidens were tipped off, that the storage unit that had some of these items that they were going to look at, that they were tipped off that they wanted to look into that, which would allow anybody to go in and rummage through and cherry-pick certain documents that might be damning to the Biden family.
00:04:47.000This is the problem with this investigation.
00:04:49.000And I'm glad that Mr. Shapley has blown the whistle.
00:04:52.000I'm glad that Mr. Eck, whose identification will be revealed tomorrow, have decided to come forward because we wouldn't know this.
00:04:59.000But they, one of them being a lifelong Democrat, they looked at this and said, there's something wrong here.
00:05:05.000These people dedicated years of their life to this investigation and then were removed.
00:05:10.000That sounds a little suspicious because it is.
00:05:16.000And so the administrative state seems just unrepentant and even more aggressive than ever.
00:05:22.000The other part of the tweet from the House Oversight Committee is that the former FBI special agent, Super Bar Special Agent, told committee investigators he had never been told to wait outside to be contacted by the subject of an investigation.
00:05:37.000So what is the timeline then, Congressman, of what you anticipate to happen with the House Oversight Committee?
00:05:43.000Because, you know, you have trapdoors, you have this maze, you have double-sided mirrors, you have smokescreen lying, destruction of documents.
00:05:58.000What are the next courses of action that you plan to take at the House Oversight Committee?
00:06:03.000I think, you know, continuing to get bank records, continuing to examine witnesses.
00:06:07.000I mean, yesterday was great to corroborate Mr. Shapley's testimony.
00:06:11.000I mean, people are trying to go after his character and his honesty in coming forward.
00:06:16.000And so having that corroborating evidence, I think, is really key.
00:06:20.000Continuing to develop the timeline, if you look at the Oversight Committee's website today, there is a timeline of, you know, during Vice President Biden's time in office of when LLCs were formed, when certain transactions to the Biden families happened from Romania, from China, from the Ukraine.
00:06:40.000There is a whole host of things that we have uncovered in five months, which is more than the FBI and the DOJ have done in five years.
00:06:47.000And so we're going to continue to do what the American people hired us to do, which is to shed light on this, which will guide, hopefully, legislation and continued pressure on this administration for what purports to be influence peddling on the world stage.
00:07:03.000So, Congressman, I want to just talk personally here.
00:07:06.000Are you even shocked at how brazen this behavior is?
00:07:09.000I mean, you come into the House majority, you have some level of expectations, right?
00:07:14.000And you have some level of like, okay, here's what we think is going on, and it's kind of somewhat speculation.
00:07:20.000Now that you have the goods, and you guys have done an amazing job, I got to brag on you guys, the specificity of how you guys have been able to lay this out.
00:07:34.000This is written like a prosecutor's report.
00:07:40.000I mean, it is time, place, manner, transaction, dates, times, third-party corroboration, bank records is amazing.
00:07:48.000But are you even shocked at how brazen and how just flagrant this pattern of behavior is?
00:07:55.000I am, and I think the American people are.
00:07:57.000I mean, you think about this growing up.
00:08:00.000You know, when you were playing cops and robbers, we hold these federal agencies, the FBI, the DOJ, to the highest ethical standards.
00:08:08.000We think that the prosecutions that happen or that don't happen are based on the fact and the law, but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
00:08:16.000And that's, I think, what's shocking to me and really shocking to people that I interact with in the district and really across the country is that the facts aren't really dictating the terms of engagement by the FBI or the DOJ.
00:08:30.000And we're seeing this on one hand when we talk about the weaponization of government, prosecutions of presidents or people who are associated on one side of the political spectrum, and then they slow walk and delay and do everything they can to disrupt any legitimate investigation into somebody else based on their political persuasions.
00:08:49.000I think this shocked the conscience of who we are as a country.
00:08:54.000And I expect better of our federal agencies.
00:08:57.000In closing, have you seen evidence, and people need to check it out, by the way, have you seen evidence that could potentially border on treason by the Biden family?
00:09:08.000Yeah, I don't know where this goes, but I'll tell you what is shocking to me the most is that this influence peddling, you know, you point to any business, you know, drive down the road, that business sells cheeseburgers, that business sells some sort of widget or a service.
00:09:24.000What did the Bidens have other than their influence?
00:10:27.000Every day, the parallel economy grows bigger and bigger.
00:10:30.000It's powered by everyday Americans who are sick and tired of all the woke nonsense being jammed into every product they consume.
00:10:36.000Big mobile companies are no different.
00:10:38.000For years, they've been dumping millions into left-wing causes, and we had to take it because you need a cell phone and probably thought that there was no alternative, but there is.

00:11:35.000So there's this craven guy who looks like a total weird creep, E.J. Montini, who writes for the Arizona Republic.
00:11:42.000Again, this stuff doesn't phase me at all, but it's important to note.
00:11:46.000So he writes this article for the Arizona Central Arizona Republic.
00:11:49.000How this passed by an editor is amazing.
00:11:52.000It's just incredible how this is, and by the way, his grammar is incorrect in the piece.
00:11:57.000He says, Trump and MAGA are OKK with Charlie Kirk's racist anti-women screeds.
00:12:06.000He says, I preach the gospel of intolerance.
00:12:09.000And his evidence he has as to why I am racist is he says, quote, I attacked four accomplished black women.
00:12:18.000On one of his recent programs, Kirk attacked television hosts an analyst, Joy Reed.
00:12:22.000That's really rich calling her an analyst.
00:12:24.000Maybe she should change her smoke detector batteries.
00:12:28.000Supreme Court Justice Katanji Brown Jackson and Representative Sheila Jackson Lee and former First Lady Michelle Obama saying these four accomplished black women needed affirmative action because quote, they do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously.
00:12:43.000Since the radical right-wing majority of the Supreme Court ruled against affirmative action, people like Kirk feel comfortably saying, comfortable saying these racist misogynistic slurs out loud.
00:12:53.000Kirk said the four women of color had to steal a white person's slot.
00:14:12.000I don't care about the color of your skin.
00:14:16.000The point I was making is that these are four people that are not very bright who admit and acknowledge that they got to where they are because of affirmative action.
00:14:23.000Fact, Michelle Obama said she did not have grades good enough, according to her high school counselor, college counselor, to get into college out of affirmative action.
00:14:31.000Fact, Michelle Obama, her thesis at Princeton is incoherent.
00:14:36.000Christopher Hitchens, who is one of the most revered people on the left, said, quote, I'll direct your attention to Mrs. Obama's 1985 thesis at Princeton University.
00:14:45.000Its title, rather limited in scope, given the author in campus, is Princeton Educated Blacks and Black Community.
00:14:50.000To describe it as hard to read would be a mistake.
00:14:53.000The thesis cannot be read at all, Christopher Hitchens writes.
00:14:57.000In the strict sense of the verb, this is because it wasn't written in any known language.
00:15:03.000Michelle Obama admits she was not smart enough and her grades were not good enough to get into an Ivy League school.
00:15:09.000So what I did is I committed the crime of noticing.
00:15:12.000I noticed that these people are not particularly bright and they told us that affirmative action got them to where they are.
00:15:20.000If a black person admits these facts, then it's okay.
00:15:24.000But if I say the same facts, then I'm racist.
00:15:27.000So Sheila Jackson Lee, Katanji Brown Jackson, Joy Reed, Michelle Obama, three of them self-acknowledge, I am where I am because of a system that prioritized black people with lower grades over whites, Asians, Hispanics, whatever.
00:15:45.000And I say, oh, and I point and I say, that happened.
00:16:16.000Well, Clarence Thomas, anybody who's watched the movie Django, just watch Stephen and you see Clarence Thomas.
00:16:25.000Clarence Thomas is a, has decided that his best personal interest is siding with the powerful and the, and the people in this special interest, regardless as to who they're going to hurt.
00:16:42.000He's like, I'm looking out for me and I don't care nothing about you.
00:16:46.000Here's a fact that, what's this guy's name?
00:16:49.000E.J. Montini doesn't want to acknowledge that I say morons come in all colors.
00:16:54.000Just so happens, I noticed four of them, and you call me a racist.
00:17:05.000They're celebrating over 80 million pillows sold.

00:18:50.000Just kind of riff a little bit on that and also your experience at our action conference.
00:18:54.000Well, listen, it was amazing, Charlie.
00:18:56.000As a longtime believer in what you guys are doing at Turning Point, it was incredible to be there to watch the crowds continue to get larger, to see people not buy into the mainstream nonsense.
00:19:10.000But yeah, no, I mean, I think that speaks for itself.
00:19:15.000You know, elect me to get revenge on the government.
00:19:18.000I don't think anyone who's been watching now or continues to believe that the government in any way, shape, or form or the corrupted bureaucracies have functioned in an arm's length manner, in an honorable fashion, that we're living in a broken system.
00:19:34.000We're a third world country in rapid decline.
00:19:38.000This has been going on since before Trump.
00:19:40.000Trump just exposed it and his Exposing that to the people so they see what's going on is why there's the visceral reaction going on.
00:19:51.000I mean, if this was happening in a third world country, the uni party in D.C. would be talking about getting into another war to create regime change, and yet it's happening here in the United States as we speak.
00:20:04.000And it's, you know, again, it's the number one reason to elect Trump.
00:20:08.000All the other things are incredible positives, and they've managed to destroy that.
00:20:12.000You saw the results that he was able to get.
00:20:14.000You saw the metrics relative to what you're seeing right now to the Biden administration.
00:20:21.000But, you know, we're up against a lot.
00:20:23.000You're up against that corrupted bureaucracy.
00:20:25.000They're trying to put him in jail for 450 years, and that's before they bring the new charges, yet another indictment.
00:20:30.000I mean, it's Tuesday, so there must be a time for another indictment.
00:20:35.000But this continues, and it will continue until we say enough is enough and actually, you know, put up someone who can burn it all down to the ground, because I think that's what you have to do.
00:20:43.000Yeah, so Don, I mean, the news today, Jack Smith looks like he's moving forward, just hyper-aggression against your father, multiple indictments.
00:20:51.000I want to just talk a little bit behind the scenes here.
00:21:15.000Because if the strategy was to make the indictments make him cranky or make him bitter or make him angry or make him short with people or kind of weigh him down, remarkably it is having the opposite effect.
00:21:31.000Yeah, no, like I said, sort of it's it's Tuesday, so it's indictment day, I guess, again.
00:21:35.000We're just gotten, we've gotten used to this, Charlie.
00:21:41.000This should be a weight, a burden on people.
00:21:45.000But when you've been dealing with it for seven years, from Russia, Russia, Russia to impeachment one, two, three, twelve, seventeen, whatever it may be, you know, indictment after indictment, all for nonsense.
00:21:55.000You know, you can have the, you know, bribery-prone crackhead son of the president taking billions from China and Ukraine and Russia and doing illegal gun purchases, you know, cocaine all over the place, and nothing happens.
00:22:11.000And you can pretty much hear the words very clearly about what my father said on January 6th, and yet none of that matters.
00:22:18.000It just shows you the insanity that we're living in.
00:22:20.000And so I think that's invigorated him because the reality, he's the only candidate, Republican or Democrat, who doesn't believe it's his turn, who, you know, who needed the money or it was the natural progression of his job.
00:22:31.000He got into this knowing how brutal it was going to be.
00:22:34.000Perhaps it's worse than even we anticipated.
00:22:39.000He did it for the American people because he's been very consistent on a lot of the practices and a lot of the incompetence that's been going on and coming from our government for the last 30 or 40 years.
00:22:47.000Just look at back what he said about then.
00:22:49.000It was mostly Japan, but trade practices and everything.
00:22:52.000So, yeah, it's definitely having the opposite effect.
00:22:55.000And I think it's also having the opposite effect in the sense that people are realizing that so many of the other candidates in this, they would never be able to withstand this, right?
00:23:05.000Just like we talked about during the speech, sort of the Supreme Court justices and the incredible rulings on affirmative action and big tech colluding with the government, et cetera, just in the last 10 days.
00:23:17.000Well, how many of the Republicans in this field would have stuck with Brett Kavanaugh during that nightmare?
00:23:22.000I mean, even Reagan gave us Sandra Day O'Connor.
00:23:26.000So it's not a given that a conservative in office is going to give you a good, strong conservative judge.
00:23:40.000And it's delivered because Trump says what he means and he means what he says, and he's going to be, he's unfazed by this.
00:23:45.000He's probably the only person in America that could take this onslaught for this many years and continue to keep fighting because everyone knows that if he just said, hey, I'm out, all of this would go away.
00:23:58.000And, you know, they're playing for keeps, Charlie.
00:24:00.000I mean, you're 450 years, and that's before you get into the January 6th.
00:24:03.000And, you know, I'm sure they'll do their treason nonsense that we've been hearing about.
00:24:07.000I know they tried that with me, with Russia, Russia, Russia.
00:24:10.000It's a minor details, a crime punishable by death.
00:24:13.000But this is where we are in America in 2023.
00:25:09.000I mean, he got in a CNN town hall three, four weeks ago and absolutely crushed it.
00:25:14.000The question is one of strategy to me.
00:25:16.000Like, as a guy that has a lot of fun with the memes, I want to see him on that stage because he'll smack these people down incredibly well.
00:25:24.000At the same time, sort of the realist political strategist that I've had to sort of become a little bit over the last few years.
00:25:30.000Like, why do you give Asa Hutchiton polling at exactly 0.00002%?
00:25:37.000You're going to give him two hours of unfettered time for him and a team of writers to come up with some sort of dunk that the liberals and the paid DeSantis influencers then run with.
00:25:48.000You're going to give Chris Christie polling at 1% three hours unfettered access to try to do that.
00:25:54.000I mean, politics is a little bit like the UFC.
00:27:20.000Well, listen, like everything else, Ron DeSantis has flip-flopped on.
00:27:24.000You saw the flip-flop from telling Tucker what he wanted to hear.
00:27:27.000And then he got the Trump-light approach on Ukraine and the never-ending wars.
00:27:31.000And then, you know, his billionaire controllers and or, you know, the Paul Ryan, Karl Rove types that are advising his campaign and endorsing him said, you can't do that.
00:27:42.000It's the number one issue for us, not the Republican Party.
00:27:44.000And, you know, he flip-flops two days later.
00:27:46.000Like all of Ron DeSantis' flip-flops, the reality is he's controlled by other people.
00:27:51.000He sees his poll numbers withering because you can do a lot, Charlie.
00:27:57.000You can create a lot of personality in someone with the online influencers, but eventually, if they're going to beat the man, to be the man, you got to beat the man.
00:28:50.000You know, the reality is when you get him on the stage and it's not all created by online paid influencers in the background, you realize that he doesn't actually have any real convictions.
00:29:00.000He'll say whatever it takes to win, and he understands that perhaps his only path right now is if something does happen to Trump.
00:29:07.000So he's not going to entirely distance himself from the concept, which is, you know, it's truly a shame.
00:29:13.000And as someone who believes in this stuff, who didn't need to be involved in this stuff, but who cares deeply about it now, me, you know, that's a shame because I thought he had probably a lot more of a future.
00:29:24.000I want us to have a deeper bench on the conservative side than we have.
00:29:27.000But, you know, man, I'm listening to him talk these days, and it's like, he's not even, it's not even like he's a number two for me.
00:29:33.000He's not even a three or four at this point, which, which is pretty scary because I had great hopes for him.
00:29:39.000Yeah, and he did some great stuff as governor of Florida, but I'll tell you that starting in January, all of a sudden everything changed on, and now Donald Trump's up 60 points in West Virginia.
00:29:49.000Donald Trump Jr., thank you so much, and thanks for always having our back.
00:30:10.000I got to tell you, I'm a little fired up about this.
00:30:12.000The Turning Point team worked so hard this weekend.
00:30:14.000And, you know, it was, there was some, we went through yesterday.
00:30:17.000There are literally still turning point staffers stranded in Florida because of our Pete Budigege, wonderful Department of Transportation grid.
00:30:26.000Literally two and a half days of flight delays and cancellations and all that.
00:30:44.000Sorry, high school or college chapter, tpusa.com.
00:30:48.000We are the front lines fighting for freedom and liberty to save Western civilization against the Marxist movement that is leading the cultural revolution.
00:30:56.000So of all the things that came out of our turning point action conference, the one that has really bothered the Washington, D.C. regime is the thought crime.
00:31:09.000We have a conversation every Thursday night called Thought Crime of challenging the orthodoxy of sending hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine.
00:31:17.000This has really received a fair amount of write-ups.
00:31:20.000If you look, Washington Post, CNN, it's rather remarkable because 95.8% Of turning point action attendees said they do not want the United States involved at all in the war in Ukraine at all.
00:32:29.000And as a secondary of that, theHill.com published an article yesterday where it said that Republican senators are very worried that populist nationalism, GOP senators rattled by radical conservative populism.
00:32:48.000Now, what do they mean by radical conservative populism?
00:32:52.000You mean ideas that mainstream Democrats have held for 30 years?
00:32:58.000Mainstream Democrats held this idea of we shouldn't have unfettered free trade, we shouldn't have a flow of people nonstop into our country, and these stupid foreign wars need to be stopped.
00:33:11.000Just because something is moderate or centrist does not mean it's not extreme or radical.
00:33:22.000We're going to get rid of all these guys.
00:33:23.000We're going to primary them all one after the other.
