Breitbart's own Alex Marlowe joins us to discuss his new book, Breaking Biden: Exposing the Hidden Forces and Secret Money Machine Behind Joe Biden, His Family, His Administration, And His Regime.
00:04:00.460We obviously recommend it to you highly.
00:04:03.000And it's it's so interesting to me, the exposing the hidden forces and secret money machine behind Joe Biden,
00:04:10.960his family and his administration is the subtitle.
00:04:14.320And and it does so much more than what the subtitle promises.
00:04:18.280And I have to say, I've learned a few things in going through your book.
00:04:23.080And amongst those things that I find interesting is a, you know,
00:04:29.380I guess I seize on commonality of perspective and view.
00:04:32.840But your your chapter on the pandemic and the coronavirus power grab, for example,
00:04:40.540I think everyone needs to pay great attention about the whole book.
00:04:44.380But I found that particularly interesting because it is people need to understand that there were no accidents in the period 2020 till now.
00:04:58.780Yeah, I think that that's a great way of summarizing it.
00:05:02.600And, yeah, the book is focused on corruption in general.
00:05:07.280I think that that is one of the broader threads throughout every chapter is how the Biden family and Biden friends were cutting deals with people,
00:05:17.300overseas people, et cetera, and trying to build a system and take advantage of a system to not just push their policy agendas.
00:05:25.300Those are really secondary to money and power.
00:05:27.860And that does go through the whole book.
00:05:31.620And I really do examine all of the key policy failures in throughout Joe Biden's life.
00:05:38.100But, of course, with an emphasis on recent events, because he's president now.
00:05:41.320And I had assumed when I took on the book, he was going to be president again.
00:05:44.900Lou, I'm in the rare group here that doesn't think that Joe Biden is deteriorating mentally or physically at a faster rate than normal people.
00:06:32.620So Joe should have theoretically resigned three times based on his own coronavirus incompetence.
00:06:37.580And that just leads into a deep discussion into what he got wrong, which was essentially everything.
00:06:42.620Well, he and he is absolutely skilled, as Bob Gates said, in foreign policy.
00:06:49.840There's nothing he hasn't had wrong over the course of I think it was 40 years when Bob said that there is the famous Obama quote, which there isn't anything.
00:07:10.080He has a gift for being addled, confused, uncertain, but emphatic in what he says and does.
00:07:22.720I mean, to think what he's achieved in two and a half, a little over two and a half years, whether it's the millions of illegal immigrants he's brought in, the disaster that he's visited upon not only our foreign policy and national interests,
00:07:36.920but those of our allies, the entirety of Europe, it's truly remarkable what this man does.
00:07:46.820And if you go subject to subject matter, for example, let's take the coronavirus where his whole strategy was mass and vaccines, mass and vaccines.
00:07:55.500So we learned from study after study, the mass didn't do much, if anything.
00:08:00.960I'll tell you, Lou, I have the benefit of having a lot of doctors and even a frontline doctor in my family.
00:08:05.880So I was getting fed information from the front lines and the paper mass and the cloth mass never worked.
00:08:12.700There was some suspicion the N95s would help a little bit, but no one had those.
00:08:17.400And those who did have them weren't fitted for them.
00:08:19.640The frontline doctor in my life, she had to spend 30 minutes getting properly fitted for hers.
00:08:25.340And what she was told in terms of exposure to coronavirus, it wasn't the six feet rule, which came out of nowhere.
00:08:32.720It was amount of time spent in the room with someone with the virus.
00:08:36.760All this information was basically, yeah, it was all kept a secret from the public.
00:08:41.720And Joe kept talking about mass and vaccines, mass and vaccines.
00:08:44.320He treated healthy children who may have just recovered from the virus exactly the same when he was talking about vaccines as 75-year-olds who had weakened immune systems and compromised health.
00:08:59.560And what he ended up doing is totally ruining any sort of positive message.
00:09:03.280And in the meantime, while Trump was doing Operation Warp Speed, Biden did nothing.
00:09:08.680He did nothing to pursue any sort of treatments or any sort of Operation Warp Speed to try to actually treat people who didn't want to get the shots.
00:09:17.540This created massive amounts of alienation, and people were dying like flies, and the media completely let them off the hook.
00:09:24.000You can go through that with every major policy Biden's undertaken.
00:09:27.840Ukraine, for example, the Ukraine war.
00:09:29.740I pit the Ukraine war in the book, Lou, almost entirely on Joe Biden.
00:09:34.100Other than Putin himself, there's no one more responsible for that war.
00:11:34.820But this is it was impeachable from the start.
00:11:38.080And we abandoned tens of thousands of our allies, as well as American citizens, as he withdrew and 80 plus billion dollars worth of equipment.
00:11:50.260And, you know, I don't know what you could put the price tag.
00:11:53.260Which I'll lay out all of it, everything that's left in the book, all the money wasted, all the expenditures, everything that all the voids we left behind.
00:12:00.900One of the immediate fallouts of that was how women were mistreated and the Taliban immediately sent women back to the Stone Age in terms of rights.
00:12:09.300I thought the left cared about this stuff, Lou.
00:13:35.780And I attribute this to him going through a lot of personal failings.
00:13:39.300He was kind of born into some wealth and some of the pleasures of life, going to golf courses, riding horses, getting cars gifted to him.
00:13:49.300And then he lost all that when his dad's businesses fell apart.
00:13:52.440Then he ended up losing his wife and daughter in a car accident when he was around 29, 30.
00:13:58.580And then, of course, he lost his son, Beau, to cancer, which about six or eight years ago, which was probably something your audience is well familiar with.
00:14:10.420But his real secret sauce, Lou, the thing that keeps him from getting shuffled off is that he has a parlor trick.
00:14:18.700And that's that he gives the leftist base of the Democrat Party whatever it wants.
00:14:23.600When his back is up against the wall, when the polls are not going well, he gives them something they want, either a massive spending deal or, you know, a student loan cut.
00:14:32.440Or he'll say something like he'll call Putin a butcher and some soundbite.
00:14:37.660He'll do something that tells his base he's got it.
00:14:41.480He's the man and he's got things under control.
00:14:44.080And so long as he does this, they're going to think twice about moving him on because he knows how to operate the system.
00:14:51.500He knows how to move the levers better than anyone because he's been doing it for 50 years.
00:14:55.340And so this restores the left's faith in him and they see him as a useful vessel and they use it.
00:15:00.780And Obama in particular has been using him.
00:15:04.420I strongly believe, as I do a number of people, we know that Obama knew knew exactly what he was doing because it was the subject of various meetings, including Intel meetings and especially Intel meetings over the course of that time.
00:15:19.860It's truly remarkable that the national media refuses to acknowledge what is reality, staring them square in the face, don't you think?
00:15:28.060It is. But, you know, my first book, Lou, was on the corrupt media.
00:15:34.020And I'll tell you, after after spending a year researching the media, nothing they do surprises me anymore.
00:15:40.060Nothing is you just assume they are weaponized against people like you and me and on behalf of people like Joe Biden and the Clintons.
00:15:47.380So once you have that premise in your head that, oh, these people aren't even trying to be neutral, they're trying to destroy folks.
00:15:54.800Once you take that premise, then all of a sudden things start making a lot more sense.
00:15:59.280Yeah, I I've had the pleasure of not not approaching it abstractly with a premise, but rather living it a couple of times over the course of my career.
00:16:10.180This is a Democrat Party that it was taken over by the Marxists long ago and where we're headed.
00:16:17.760I don't know, but it will be very unpleasant unless the right actually comes to terms that they're in a war with the left.
00:16:26.820Yeah, I wrote the book in a way to try to be.
00:16:31.060First of all, the goal is to inform and I want people to have the have a reset in terms of how we approach Joe Biden and to not underestimate him and to understand that he's got his hands, very old hands, nine year old hands, whatever it is.
00:16:47.740But they're firmly on the gears and he's going to keep moving things around to benefit his family and his base.
00:16:53.480And he's going to make money and all that stuff.
00:16:55.400Foreign entities are going to benefit from it.
00:16:57.940But the other thing that I wanted to do is to try to make people enjoy themselves while they're getting this information, because I tried to write as fluidly and as smoothly and as entertainingly as I could, because a lot of it is really hilarious in terms of all of his foibles over the years.
00:17:17.580But overall, Lou, if you make it through this book, you can't help but feel like if we don't do something fast and that's what I want people to do, I want people to do something fast.
00:17:26.480We're going to lose this country because all the stuff that's already going on, it's a it's so incalculable is in every single corner of the country.
00:17:37.780The way the deep state is working with academia, is working with the Biden administration in order to try to create networks to gain more wealth and power, to be able to subvert disclosure, to be able to have essentially satellite legislatures that are taking place throughout this country right now.
00:18:04.320They're the ones who don't like democracy.
00:18:05.960They're the ones who subvert democracy.
00:18:07.980The Bidens in particular and all the details are there.
00:18:10.060And the victims here are the American people because there is and I and I was very appreciative when Jim Jordan, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, created a subcommittee called the Weaponization of Government Subcommittee, one of the four investigating committees in Congress.
00:18:28.240And yet the establishment Republicans will not recognize that they are have no control over the electoral process.
00:18:36.280They have no way to assure electoral integrity that this election in 2024 is as likely to be rigged as was the one in 2020 and 2022.
00:18:45.000And they do not comprehend or prefer not to acknowledge and react to the perfidy of our political system and particularly the the Marxist NIMS who are intent on taking over this great republic.
00:19:02.980The Republican establishment, particularly those in the Senate side, see that the biggest thing that we can do in the in the country and as a people is to send money to Ukraine.
00:19:37.740As a matter of fact, I often wonder just how small a minority are we on the right?
00:19:42.520How many of us are there truly on in the MAGA world, America first, who are concerned and absolutely animated in defense of our national values?
00:19:56.000This the republic's future and that of our our children and grandchildren.
00:20:01.960It is because if you pay attention only to mainstream media, you would think that we are a, you know, a twiddling minority that is just about to expire.
00:21:42.740We recommend it to you, as I said, highly and enthusiastically.
00:21:46.700It's a book that is a wonderful, wonderful treatment of this this half century, at least of Biden corruption.
00:21:57.400And I don't want to leave the topic of corruption, Alex, just for a second.
00:22:03.160How is it that we can, in your opinion, allow a president or any other official to store 1,850 boxes of classified documents at the University of Delaware,
00:22:18.980have them transported to his attorneys, a number of them supported to his attorneys in Boston?
00:22:23.780And there is not even a word from the special counsel while we're treated in the case of Donald Trump to a constant barrage of public commentary from the junkyard jackal, Jack Smith,
00:22:35.880who is, of course, pursuing, amongst his other cases, the classified documents case against President Trump.
00:22:43.640Yeah, this is something that comes up pretty early in the book.
00:22:48.280I do an analysis of the classified documents.
00:22:51.660And you remember when they found some of the documents literally sitting next to Joe's 1967 Corvette?
00:22:57.600Lou, like, how is this acceptable at all is not funny.
00:23:02.600It's because you know who has access to that garage.
00:23:41.700It's absolutely an outrage and something that if it was Trump, we would immediately see impeachment proceedings.
00:23:48.100And Joe Biden has skirted it because the deep state and the media establishment, the Democrat establishment, they know to leave the guy alone.
00:23:58.580And the timing of Joe's classified document scandal I observe in the book is almost optimized.
00:24:04.420It came out right after the 2022 midterm elections, and it's timed to basically be so far in people's memory by the time we all go to vote next November.
00:24:16.360It is just lined up perfectly for him, unless, of course, people like you and me want to talk about it.
00:24:21.960Well, to that end, my point is, how in the world is it that intelligence agencies that know what everyone is saying, what everyone is communicating, whether telephonically, digitally, you name the media?
00:24:44.220And yet there are great imponderables.
00:24:45.880It's like, why did none of the intelligence services or law enforcement agencies in this country know what Biden was about, what he was doing in each one of those countries that you enumerated?
00:24:56.920We know darn well they know exactly what he was doing.
00:25:00.500We know the Secret Service intercedes and intervenes on behalf of Hunter Biden when Hunter Biden didn't even have Secret Service detail, nor his father at that point in 2018.
00:25:17.400And we have no one, including the U.S. Congress at this moment, it's early days, I hope.
00:25:24.120But nonetheless, they have not touched the cover-up itself and have not had the courage to this point, or at least the comfort, to subpoena directly Hunter Biden, all of the agency heads, and by God, mean it.
00:25:39.900But we're looking at a moment of – there's a certain inertia, an ennui within the Senate and the House that I think has to be overcome before anything substantive can happen, like save the republic.
00:26:07.920And one thing that you'll notice as going through the book is just how much has yet to be investigated, how much is unexplained, how many deals where we are missing documents, we are missing phone records, we are missing explanations of how transactions were made and who are the beneficiaries.
00:26:24.660And all of these are under the power of the Congress to figure out.
00:26:39.060But there is so many places where I hope that breaking Biden prompts people to dig deeper because you're just going to see clear constellations of what look like the anatomy of a bribe, one after the next, after the next.
00:27:21.880I just – I have to say, you wanted to do a reset, you said, on Biden, on the corruption, and his failures as your focus.
00:27:29.740And I think you've done exactly that, and not his age and his gaffes.
00:27:34.860I think too often that's the only thing that attracts the national media.
00:27:38.680Yes, this is a – I would not have written a book about this man if I thought he was just a bumbling idiot.
00:27:44.640I think he's much more nefarious than that.
00:27:47.260And, again, to that point I made earlier, that if you look back to the crazy stuff he was saying in the 70s, he's always said crazy stuff, but he's always had a fastball.
00:27:54.700And he's had the ability to read the base and to give the base what they want.
00:27:58.720And so long as he has that, and he still does, and he has got this system that you were alluding to earlier working on his behalf, the Mark Eliases and the Stacey Abrams of the world going around, community organizing, trying to make it so the Democrats can have a huge advantage in terms of getting ballots into ballot boxes, which is the game now, Lou.
00:28:17.200It's not just about the best ideas of the best candidates, it's who can get the most ballots in the ballot boxes.
00:28:23.140So long as he's building that apparatus, which he is, then he's going to be a threat next time, even if Trump enters in a stronger position.
00:28:29.860Those Republicans, and I think this is where you and I would probably part company on the issue, I don't believe that the Republicans should be in a contest for early voting.
00:28:39.180I do not believe they should be in a contest for drop boxes.
00:28:42.080I do not believe that anything less than demanding a rigorous, structured architecture that is finite for the election will deliver electoral integrity and fairness.
00:28:58.540I just believe it's a fool's dream to think that Republicans are going to go up against Mark Elias, who's made a career out of his nefarious but often brilliant subversions of the electoral process.
00:29:14.260But we have to win one more time in order to reestablish that there's an election day and people need to go show up and vote with their own hands and their own ballots.
00:29:22.460I would love that, but we've got to win one more first until we can get there.
00:29:25.820Yeah, and I wonder, too, if there isn't a certain level of just apathy for passivity on the part of the right that can't be overcome, because I don't see any energy, not in the Republican National Committee.
00:29:43.580I don't see an organization behind Donald Trump.
00:29:51.480It's part of why I've maintained my position in independent media.
00:29:55.720It's very disheartening, the state of things in terms of right-wing energy.
00:30:01.480Part of it is not so off-putting, Lou, in the sense that I think we care more about our families and we go to church more.
00:30:07.640And there are certain things that it is superior, I think, to have more balance in your life.
00:30:12.280But the reality is we're going up against a political movement, the American left right now, the Marxist left, who they wake up and they live, eat, and breathe politics.
00:30:21.880They think protesting on a Sunday morning is better than going to brunch.
