Transcript

00:00:00.160 Oh my goodness. What a show. What a broadcast. What a program show. Really.
00:00:06.840 And Pat Gray was filling in for Stu, which always makes for a good time.
00:00:12.160 I should just fire Stu, don't you think?
00:00:14.200 Yeah.
00:00:14.600 Probably.
00:00:15.120 Probably.
00:00:15.580 Probably.
00:00:16.100 Best part of the show today. The reason why people should listen.
00:00:18.520 Oh man. We're sending F-16s maybe to Ukraine?
00:00:22.540 Yeah, I like that.
00:00:23.100 That was a fun part.
00:00:24.160 I like that. And strangely, it could be tied.
00:00:27.740 You know, just in conspiracy-minded people like me, to the breaking news that CBS News had
00:00:35.580 that the Department of Homeland Security is issuing satellite phones to the Senate.
00:00:42.640 Every Senate member has been issued. Only 50 of them took it.
00:00:46.960 But they said, you know, that's just in case, you know, disruption in communications.
00:00:51.460 Which happens all the time.
00:00:55.300 Almost every day.
00:00:56.700 Oh my gosh.
00:00:58.140 So much.
00:00:59.360 Okay. So much and more, including James Comer is on with us talking about what he has found
00:01:06.040 on the Biden. Some fascinating breaking news on that as well.
00:01:09.560 Brought to you by American Giant.

00:01:34.080 that makes a difference.
00:01:35.500 It's what our military still tries to do.
00:01:38.140 Some of the guys are the top.
00:01:39.640 You know what?
00:01:40.060 I've got to call American Giant and see if we can lose some of the discounts for some
00:01:48.660 of the big guys in Washington.
00:01:51.320 But no, we should include them all or not.

00:02:17.040 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:24.060 Filling in for Stuba Gear today is Pat Gray.
00:02:28.880 Hello, Pat.
00:02:29.540 Hello, Glenn.
00:02:30.120 How are you?
00:02:30.820 Oh, yeah, right.
00:02:32.340 Oh, my gosh.
00:02:37.820 It is becoming sincerely a deep mental illness.
00:02:44.720 Yeah.
00:02:45.380 A mental illness.
00:02:47.820 What?
00:02:49.580 I'm sorry, but I went to Target on Friday.
00:02:55.160 And I'm just, you know, we're just going to buy bananas.
00:03:00.320 And then I go by the swimsuit area.
00:03:03.040 And I'm, hmm, are the bananas here?
00:03:07.580 Because it sure looks like there's lots of bananas in the women's swimsuit section.
00:03:14.280 And it's not the women's swimsuit section.
00:03:17.600 They look like women's swimsuits, but they're not.
00:03:20.220 They are for trans people.
00:03:22.620 Now, let's not be stupid.
00:03:27.680 Trans people have been with us for a long time.
00:03:30.120 And in one auction, I so regret that I just didn't go an extra bid.
00:03:36.840 And I was bidding on a letter from the 1880s, and it was from a fort out someplace out west
00:03:45.840 in the middle of nowhere.
00:03:47.500 And it was a letter to somebody back home.
00:03:52.360 And they said, you know, Mrs. Waffelheimer or whatever her name was, Mrs. Waffelheimer died.
00:03:59.000 And she was our cook.
00:04:00.300 And she was the greatest cook ever.
00:04:02.700 And we miss her so much.
00:04:05.180 We were surprised, however, to when we found her dead body, we were surprised as we were
00:04:13.920 putting her in her coffin to see that basically she had junk downstairs.
00:04:19.800 She was a dude the whole time.
00:04:22.380 So this is not something new.
00:04:25.360 It's been around.
00:04:26.380 I have no problem with trans if that's what you want to do.
00:04:30.280 But it is a very small percentage, less than 1% of the population.
00:04:38.760 Let me say it again, less than 1%.
00:04:43.000 And you would think we are a country made up of trans people.
00:04:49.520 And I have to tell you, when you have bathing suits for kids with the tuck-it option,
00:05:00.680 you've got a problem as a nation, a real problem as a nation.
00:05:06.660 And I would suggest we stop it right now.
00:05:11.020 I've said to you before, the greatest advice anyone can give you is live not by lies.
00:05:23.240 Do not live, endorse, or associate with anyone who is telling lies.
00:05:33.220 And right now, our entire society is lying.
00:05:40.040 Remove yourself from that.
00:05:42.700 When I was walking down the aisles of, I mean, I about lost my mind walking down the aisles
00:05:50.000 of Target, and I saw all of this trans stuff and rainbows everywhere.
00:05:59.020 And I was like, can we please, for the love of Pete, have some balance in our lives?
00:06:10.080 Now, let me give you the story today that I think, hopefully, will awaken some people.
00:06:18.300 I mean, I'm wide awake.
00:06:20.200 I hope my wife is wide awake.
00:06:25.740 I hope this will awaken people and say, okay, no more Target.
00:06:29.880 No more Target.
00:06:30.920 But I will tell you, I spent the whole weekend here in the studio recording my new book,
00:06:37.260 Future, Dark Future.
00:06:40.000 And it's 500 pages.
00:06:42.280 So, over two days and 12 hours, I only made it through half of the book.
00:06:48.300 But it is really, really good.
00:06:50.240 It's going to come out here in about four weeks.
00:06:52.700 You'll be able to get it.
00:06:53.540 Get it now, if you can.
00:06:54.920 Get the audio book.
00:06:55.940 But please, and you'll understand why when you read it, get the hardbound copy as well.
00:07:01.640 Don't just get it digitally.
00:07:04.820 These books will go away soon.
00:07:08.940 Soon.
00:07:09.460 If we really go much further.
00:07:11.980 Anyway, in this book, you will find how deeply in bed Walmart is with the WEF.
00:07:20.960 I mean, they are neck deep with the World Economic Forum and ESG and all of that stuff.
00:07:29.620 So, you're losing Walmart and you're losing Target.
00:07:34.500 But it's high time we lose them if that's the side they want to be on.
00:07:40.440 Now, what side is that?
00:07:42.580 They'll say they're just being open.
00:07:44.760 They're being inclusive.
00:07:46.220 I want you to listen to this story.
00:07:48.560 Target is already facing boycotts for selling tuck-friendly bathing suits and LGBTQ onesies for babies.
00:07:56.660 Now, it's been revealed that Target is selling LGBTQ pride products from a designer that appears to promote violence, drug use, and Satanism.
00:08:07.780 Target sells three items by the brand, uh, Abprellin.
00:08:13.800 We belong everywhere, messenger bags.
00:08:16.800 Too queer for here, messenger bag.
00:08:19.720 Cure transphobia, not trans people, t-shirts.
00:08:23.100 It's LGBTQ items are available on the Target website and in its stores.
00:08:28.480 Target describes all of the products as all items were designed for all bodies, regardless of gender identity and presentation.
00:08:36.180 Just, I want you just to hear this.
00:08:38.320 Remember that, uh, the goal of Black Lives Matter, stated on their page until they removed it because everybody went,
00:08:48.440 wait a minute, wait a minute, what, is to destroy families.
00:08:53.400 The biggest thing in the global warming movement is to destroy families by telling people don't have children.
00:09:05.640 And?
00:09:07.320 Who else wants to destroy families and children?
00:09:11.400 Uh, Satan.
00:09:13.160 That's who.
00:09:13.740 Okay, we added design features to help make the fit customizable for you.
00:09:19.960 In other words, Target is saying, you can tuck your little wiener in and wear a chick's bathing suit.
00:09:27.980 That, that is, that is not normal.
00:09:31.580 How many are you selling of those, Target?
00:09:35.320 How many?
00:09:37.940 I'm going to go, I'm going to go, and I'm making my last stop at Target.
00:09:42.020 I am going and buying some of these things for the museum because someday no one will believe that these were on the shelves of giant box, uh, stores like Target.
00:10:00.200 Uh, our hope is that guests, our guests find clothing that makes them feel comfortable and affirmed in their identity.
00:10:07.420 You are either male or you're female, period.
00:10:13.000 Now, you can dress any way you want, but you are either male or female, period.
00:10:21.820 You go into a hospital and you've got, you're bleeding downstairs and you say you're a woman, but you ain't a woman.
00:10:32.520 The doctor's going to work on you as a male, not a female.
00:10:41.080 He's going to look at the, your wiener and say, that doesn't look like something you should be bleeding out of.
00:10:50.320 Oh, God.
00:10:51.500 We understand that fit is incredibly important.
00:10:56.720 Yeah, Target, truth is more important and will continue to evolve and improve on fit needs for LGBTQISRNT.
00:11:06.540 In the product descriptions, Target credits Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, and they have a 10-year partnership with Gleason.
00:11:17.900 They lead the movement, according to Target, in creating affirming, accessible, and anti-racist spaces.
00:11:25.020 Now, how are you suddenly, why is LGBTQI2+, why are they now claiming that they make things that are anti-racist too?
00:11:41.200 You could be homophobic, you could be transphobic, you could be two-spirit phobic.
00:11:47.260 That's the one that gets me.
00:11:48.800 I'm spooked by those two-spirit people.
00:11:51.120 But racism?
00:11:56.900 Anyway, we are proud of 10 years plus celebration with the support of their mission, blah, blah, blah.
00:12:04.360 Now, you go to the website of the company that they have partnered with, based in London, and you find that it was founded by a gay trans man.
00:12:16.800 Great.
00:12:17.140 The founder and designer is Eric Callen, and according to TransLash, a website that is building experiences to advance trans narratives, histories, healings, and most importantly, the human rights of trans people.
00:12:34.500 He started this company, and then he wrote about his contract with Target.
00:12:42.960 He said, and I quote,
00:12:45.320 Being able to sell my stuff in Target stores is incredibly exciting.
00:12:50.820 Knowing that people are seeing it without necessarily explicitly seeking LGBTQ-related stuff is wonderful.
00:12:59.940 I'm especially happy about the thought that young, closeted people will see it, and I hope in some way they'll feel a little more comfortable in themselves, as we deserve to feel.
00:13:12.680 You can get the sweatshirt and the bags on Target's website or in stores.
00:13:17.580 He goes on,
00:13:18.780 These have already got the transphobes infuriated with me, and I feel like quite the celebrity to think that they believe this is all some sort of big conspiracy, and that I have any power to brainwash anyone.
00:13:33.100 I'm just some guy drawing pictures.
00:13:36.280 Are you?
00:13:38.360 Callen claims that the word groomer is a right-wing transphobic word.
00:13:44.200 However, he also goes on to confess that he was groomed when he was young, and he will likely be working through it for the rest of his life.
00:13:55.820 When I was in my very early teens, I was groomed and in an abusive relationship-slash-friendship with a person 10 years older than me.
00:14:04.720 Ha-ha.
00:14:05.320 However, his designs, nearly all feature the colors of the transgender flag, appear to promote violence, drug use, and Satanism.
00:14:16.780 There are designs that seem to call for violence, including a pin with two axes that reads,
00:14:23.440 Fight for Trans Rights.
00:14:25.520 There is a design with a guillotine with skulls near it that reads,
00:14:29.740 Homophobic Headrest.
00:14:31.140 Now, imagine if I made a t-shirt that had a guillotine and skulls, and I said,
00:14:37.820 Liberal Headrest.
00:14:41.360 Do you think they would say I was promoting violence?
00:14:47.160 He sells a pin with a ball-and-chain flail weapon that says,
00:14:52.600 We bash back.
00:14:53.800 Gay bashing, lesbian bashing, trans bashing, queer bashing, all far too prevalent in this world.
00:15:02.180 And from the comments shouted on the streets to the horrific violent crimes committed against LGBTQ plus people,
00:15:09.000 sometimes there's only one language those who harass us understand.
00:15:13.560 Some might say turn the other cheek, but others would advise to bash them back.
00:15:19.480 And if you're going to do that, why not do it with a heart-shaped pastel-colored mace?
00:15:26.260 One design features a lit lighter with the words,
00:15:29.820 Burn down the system.
00:15:33.700 Uh-huh.
00:15:35.060 The system is what keeps trans kids from feeling free.
00:15:39.620 This is what he's writing now on Instagram.
00:15:42.160 They're true selves.
00:15:43.340 It makes the world dangerous for them to live in.
00:15:46.020 It causes people to feel guilty for transitioning.
00:15:48.240 It aims to ensure that we stay in rigid boxes set up at birth.
00:15:52.920 It makes it harder for trans women to get jobs, housing, insurance.
00:15:56.640 It tells non-binary people that they don't exist.
00:15:59.520 It's the reason trans women face both misogyny and transphobia in equal measure.
00:16:04.980 It's becoming the system that trans men are erased and overlooked.
00:16:10.380 Now, trans men or trans women, I'm not sure.
00:16:13.140 We don't need to restructure it, he writes.
00:16:15.440 We need to burn it down and start up again in a system that doesn't police gender or expression.
00:16:22.120 A world that allows exploration, changing our minds, dressing how we want to,
00:16:27.520 taking up the space we need, being treated as we deserve.
00:16:31.400 We need to burn down the system and create a world where trans people don't get to just live,
00:16:38.500 but thrive.
00:16:40.840 His account also encourages transgender people to bite TERFs, which is trans-exclusionary radical feminist.
00:16:49.020 The design features a snake biting a hand of a human, and the caption reads,
00:16:55.280 never trust a TERF.
00:16:56.700 They're not well-meaning.
00:16:57.880 They just don't care about cis women's rights.
00:17:01.500 They don't have the right intentions.
00:17:04.240 Avoid them when you can, and bite them when you can't.
00:17:08.500 Another one, another of other slogans that you will find from the designer of the Target clothing,
00:17:14.860 join my gay cult, transitioning saves lives, heteronormativity,
00:17:23.520 how do you say that?
00:17:25.100 Heteronormativity?
00:17:25.860 Yeah, heteronormativity is a plague.
00:17:29.900 Binding doesn't make you less of a man, and trans witches for abortion.
00:17:35.040 So, I think we're doing good.
00:17:39.020 Hail trans demons, he also says.
00:17:41.300 Oh, and one more t-shirt available.
00:17:43.600 Satan respects pronouns.
00:17:47.680 Congratulations.
00:17:49.300 Are you shopping at Target?
00:17:52.900 I hope not.
00:17:55.120 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:17:58.560 Congressman Comer, welcome to the program, sir.
00:18:00.640 How are you?
00:18:01.720 I'm well, thanks for having me.
00:18:02.900 You bet.
00:18:04.220 So, I understand you've carved out some time for us, and I really appreciate that.
00:18:09.400 You have been doing just God's work, and thank you for everything that you are exposing,
00:18:15.980 and the trouble I imagine you are having, just even running your life because of it.
00:18:21.580 So, thank you.
00:18:22.260 My pleasure.
00:18:24.140 It's something that I think, despite what the mainstream media wants to think, I think the majority of Americans are keeping up with what we're doing and are very concerned about public corruption.
00:18:35.160 Yeah, because it goes beyond, you know, crack cocaine and hookers, and it even goes beyond the White House.
00:18:43.760 This goes to the intelligence community, the FBI, the Justice Department.
00:18:48.800 All of it, all of it, all of it seemed to be involved in this.
00:18:54.120 Is it something we can clean up?
00:18:59.460 Well, I hope so.
00:19:00.540 I think that the Durham report was a start.
00:19:03.840 It didn't go as far as what I think most of us would have wanted, knowing how bad the FBI is.
00:19:10.040 But, you know, there's a pattern here that dates back to the Hillary Clinton years, at least, where the FBI has gotten engaged in elections and tried to cover up Democrat mistakes
00:19:23.800 and try to create Republican mistakes, especially in the case with Trump.
00:19:30.560 So, you know, the intelligence community has suffered a black eye.
00:19:35.880 I think polling shows that the average American has lost confidence in the FBI.
00:19:41.940 And I can tell you from this Biden investigation, the stuff that the Biden family alone did, let's take Joe Biden out of the equation.
00:19:50.320 Let's just take him out of the equation.
00:19:52.140 The stuff that his family, not just the son, the family has done, no other American could have gotten away with.
00:19:59.340 No other American could have gotten away with having this many shell companies, with having this many banks notify the federal government that they were concerned they were committing, among other things, money laundering.
00:20:12.960 And no one could get away with the tax evasion situations that the family has, not just the son, but the entire family.
00:20:21.280 So I think the American people are starting to see there is a two-tier system of justice, and they want reform.
00:20:29.120 And the only way that's going to happen is to get rid of the people at the top, and not just the attorney general and not just the FBI director, but the next level of leadership, too.
00:20:41.620 We need completely new faces in our intelligence community and the Department of Justice.
00:20:47.180 I will tell you that it concerns me that some people would just drop this.
00:20:54.180 Let's say, you know, Biden dies tomorrow from a ham sandwich or whatever, and he's not there anymore.
00:21:01.060 I think there's a lot of people in Washington that would say, OK, we don't need to pursue this.
00:21:05.900 I will tell you, no matter how he leaves office or when he leaves office, this has that someone has to pay a price.
00:21:15.420 Otherwise, you're going to get the next politician and the next politician.
00:21:20.380 You've got to go in and root this cancer out.
00:21:25.580 Absolutely.
00:21:26.760 And that was the disappointing thing for me with the Durham report.
00:21:30.300 There were no criminal referrals.
00:21:32.500 How do you feel about his answer to that with, you know, well, I did say that you can't do anything until there's fidelity restored to the Constitution?
00:21:46.560 Yeah.
00:21:47.220 I mean, well, that's the most obvious thing that's been written in a long time.
00:21:52.140 Right.
00:21:52.380 Look, we've this is something where right now with these debt ceiling talks, you finally got the Republican Senate leadership getting our backs for trying to be the adults in the room and restore some fiscal discipline to have some budget cuts, you know, to try to get closer to a balanced budget.
00:22:13.180 The next thing that the Senate leadership is going to have to do is get our backs when we carve out the appropriations bill, which will start in October.
00:22:24.820 We're going to have to hold these agencies accountable.
00:22:27.880 That's the only way to rein them in.
00:22:30.220 Be it with the Democrats controlling the White House, with the media turning a blind eye and not providing any type of investigative reporting or checks and balances or even accurate reporting on the corruption and the wrongdoing.
00:22:47.160 We are going to have to cut their budgets in these positions to the bone.
00:22:53.040 We have tools in our new rule package to do that with the Harmon rule.
00:22:56.100 And the only way we can do it all day, a lot of people talk about impeach, impeach.
00:23:01.040 Well, the Senate won't convict.
00:23:03.260 The one thing that the Senate can do is get our backs and help us cut the FBI positions, you know, halt their expansion.
00:23:15.160 You do whatever we can with the power of the purse until they resign and we get new, competent leadership in these government agencies.
00:23:25.780 I hope I hope I hope that they actually follow through with that.
00:23:29.600 I know there's several of you in in Washington for the very first time in probably 12 years.
00:23:34.880 I feel like there are more than a handful of people that actually care and are trying to do the right thing.
00:23:44.580 And that's given me a lot of hope.
00:23:47.620 Let me go back to the the Biden family.
00:23:50.520 You say that no one would be able to get away with this.
00:23:55.920 Explain what the crimes are that the families are involved in.
00:24:01.360 I mean, they they have what 20 plus LLCs and even some of the grandchildren are being paid.
00:24:09.440 And I can't figure out for what.
00:24:11.620 Right.
00:24:12.140 Well, neither could I.
00:24:13.840 And I've been looking into this for for several months.
00:24:16.000 But let's start with the payments coming from from China and Romania, because we're the only two countries that I've discussed.
00:24:23.980 And I can assure you, Glenn, there are many more.
00:24:26.620 Let's just talk about these two countries.
00:24:30.400 For some reason, these countries provided payments to primarily the president's son and brother.
00:24:40.280 Now, for what?
00:24:41.160 We don't know.
00:24:43.280 So either one of two things was happening.
00:24:45.500 Either they were providing some type of representation for those countries, Romania and China.
00:24:54.260 And even in some of the material that we've seen from the CEFC, which is the Chinese energy company that Hunter was was getting paid by and Jim, they had in there that Hunter was basically a lobbyist for them with the with the federal government.
00:25:11.980 Now, there's a term for that.
00:25:14.600 That's called a foreign agent.
00:25:16.200 Jonathan Turley talks about this all the time.
00:25:18.540 At the very least, if they were if Joe Biden, like the New York Times wants to wants to say Joe Biden had no knowledge of this, had nothing to do with this whatsoever.
00:25:28.260 However, then the president's son and it would have been then vice president's son and brother were foreign agents for two of the worst countries on the planet.
00:25:40.720 Or Joe Biden was doing things for the country and funneling the money to his brother and his son.
00:25:57.080 So that's one crime, somebody committed a crime, either either Joe Biden committed a very serious crime, you could argue treason or whatever for espionage.
00:26:07.640 There's a million different things you could you could argue Joe Biden did wrong or his brother and his son did.
00:26:15.340 There's no other option.
00:26:16.760 Somebody committed a crime there, either the either Joe Biden or his son and his brother or all three of them.
00:26:23.760 Then the next crime for whatever they were doing, instead of those countries just sending the money directly to the Bidens, they funneled it through all these different LLCs.
00:26:37.800 And there's a term for that called money laundering.
00:26:40.820 And that's a very serious crime.
00:26:42.680 Now, hang on just a second.
00:26:43.940 Is there any way, any way to look at this in a different way and have a reasonable?
00:26:53.680 No, no, I didn't think so.
00:26:55.380 There's not.
00:26:55.860 There's no other way.
00:26:57.240 Somebody committed a crime.
00:26:58.640 So if you're going to say if if the if the New York Times wants to say that Joe Biden didn't do anything, Comer exonerated Joe Biden, which, by the way, we're just getting started.
00:27:09.420 But let's just say let's and no one in America believes in New York Times other than the crazy liberal loonies that that want to believe in New York Times.
00:27:18.320 Let's just say Joe Biden had nothing to do with it.
00:27:20.600 The family is there.
00:27:23.460 Unregistered foreign agents.
00:27:25.500 They've money laundered.
00:27:27.040 Then they've created all these LLCs to try to disguise the payments, which if they were legal payments, why are you trying to disguise them?
00:27:34.440 Or are you trying to deceive the IRS and not pay taxes?
00:27:37.640 You know, there's some reason they've created all these companies that don't have any legitimate purpose other than to receive and transfer funds from foreign nationals.
00:27:48.180 You know, there's a term for that creating companies that have no legitimate purpose.
00:27:54.200 Fraud.
00:27:54.760 But to launder money, that's called racketeering.
00:27:57.100 Racketeering.
00:27:57.780 And then there's another term called wire fraud.
00:28:00.040 I mean, the list goes on and on and on that any American, if your last name isn't Biden, would have already been convicted on.
00:28:09.140 And that's if Joe Biden had absolutely nothing to do with it.
00:28:13.160 And I will tell you, that is not what I believe.
00:28:18.540 Because you look at these countries, whether it be Romania, whether it be China, and the other countries that we'll talk about in the future.
00:28:27.620 Ukraine is one.
00:28:28.500 Joe Biden went there during the last year and a half of his vice presidency and took his son with him.
00:28:34.940 You know what I mean?
00:28:35.820 So they were setting this up.
00:28:38.560 It's very clear what they were doing.
00:28:41.140 All right.
00:28:41.320 Back in just a second, we're talking to Congressman James Comer from Kentucky about the scandals in Washington.
00:28:50.120 I want to get to the whistleblowers and the informants and FBI and the IRS when we come back.
00:28:59.760 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:29:01.940 Okay, so let's talk about the informants and the FBI and the IRS.
00:29:09.260 Is everybody safe?
00:29:11.960 Yeah, the ones that the most recent ones are.
00:29:15.320 The ones that are missing are informants that have been around for several years.
00:29:22.140 Since my investigation began, which was basically the end of January when I got subpoena power, 1st of February,
00:29:29.120 the IRS informant and the informant that Senator Grassley brought forward that is alleging the FBI has information pertaining to a potential bribery attempt by Vice President Joe Biden,
00:29:44.680 those informants and whistleblowers are alive and well.
00:29:49.040 And there was some confusion.
00:29:50.500 That's the interview I did on Maria Bartiroma.
00:29:52.980 We were talking about one of the Israeli whistleblower informant, whatever you want to call him, that has been in the news for several years, and he is missing.
00:30:05.400 But I think the media didn't understand who I was referring to and took it in a different direction,
00:30:12.220 and maybe I should have done a better job explaining it, but for our investigative purposes, the two main whistleblowers that are in the news are alive and well.
00:30:21.860 Now, the people that have inside knowledge of the Biden family influence peddling schemes,
00:30:29.780 and we know who a lot of those people are because there have been books written, there have been reports issued about some of these people.
00:30:38.320 So they're very concerned.
00:30:40.740 They've been threatened.
00:30:42.140 They've been intimidated.
00:30:44.680 And you saw how the FBI whistleblowers that Jordan had in front of his committee were treated by the federal government.
00:30:52.860 And then the IRS whistleblower was removed from the Hunter Biden case.
00:30:57.340 So there are lots of examples of intimidation and scare tactics by not just the White House, but also the Biden legal team.
00:31:07.680 I was surprised to see the IRS said, that wasn't us.
00:31:10.680 That order came from the Justice Department to get rid of that team.
00:31:15.240 That's wildly illegal, is it not?
00:31:18.440 It is.
00:31:19.260 It is.
00:31:19.880 I mean, to retaliate against credible whistleblowers, that's about as bad as it gets in the federal government.
00:31:28.520 And for someone that's in charge of the House Oversight Committee, we depend on two people.
00:31:35.400 If nothing else, two types of people, we depend on the inspectors general because they're the ones that are supposed to be independent and do audits.
00:31:43.000 So if we want to try and waste, fraud, and abuse, their IGs, as they're called, are a very important tool for us.
00:31:50.740 And then whistleblowers, because whistleblowers are the ones that know what's really going on in these deep state bureaucracies.
00:31:59.600 So for the federal government, Joe Biden's administration to actively, arrogantly retaliate against whistleblowers says a lot about the corruption in this administration.
00:32:14.500 Yeah, it really kind of says they're not afraid.
00:32:18.760 I mean, that's the overwhelming impression that I think the average American has is these guys just don't ever think anything's going to happen to them.
00:32:29.420 And it kind of knocks the wind out of Americans because you feel like I've talked to so many people who say, oh, yeah, yeah, another whistleblower.
00:32:39.000 And they haven't even paid attention to some of the stuff coming out of Congress and your committee because they say, and then what?
00:32:48.100 What's going to happen?
00:32:49.180 Nobody ever goes to jail.
00:32:52.140 Yeah, and that's something that we're very aware of.
00:32:57.080 And we want to hold people accountable.
00:32:59.200 We changed the name of the Oversight Committee to Oversight and Accountability because what's happened in the past, as you know,
00:33:06.800 is these committees, they identify problems, but then nothing changes.
00:33:11.380 There's no solution to the problems.
00:33:12.860 No one's held accountable for wrongdoing.
00:33:15.180 And, again, that goes back to the Durham report.
00:33:17.500 I'm not a fan of special counsels.
00:33:19.180 I know a lot of Republicans call.
00:33:20.540 We need a special counsel on the Biden.
00:33:22.640 Look, show me one special counsel that ever amounted to a thing.
00:33:27.560 I haven't seen one.
00:33:28.900 And Durham took up a lot of time, a lot of resources, and didn't accomplish anything.
00:33:36.300 If we do a special counsel on the Bidens, I have no doubt, because it's so obvious.
00:33:41.000 I tell people, investigating the Biden family is like tracking a bleeding bear through a snowstorm.
00:33:46.040 I mean, they have left evidence everywhere, and we have their bank records, so they can't lie about their bank records.
00:33:51.280 Yeah, and we have a minute before I have to break again, but the 170 flags from banks saying this looks like money laundering, that is overwhelming, is it not?
00:34:05.400 That doesn't happen all the time.
00:34:06.800 And I'm not allowed to talk in great detail about those bank violations, but it wasn't just money laundering.
00:34:12.080 They alleged other crimes, too.
00:34:14.240 And this wasn't just one or two or three banks.
00:34:16.400 This was many banks, many banks, all alleging the same thing.
00:34:20.460 I mean, it's unprecedented.
00:34:21.880 I was a director of a bank for over a decade.
00:34:23.820 I understand what these suspicious activity reports are.
00:34:28.500 It's breathtaking.
