00:00:33.680 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs and welcome to The Great America Show.

00:00:37.900 Thanks for joining us.

00:00:39.240 Congress passed its latest stopgap spending bill last night to prevent a government shutdown set to happen at midnight tonight.

00:00:46.560 The bill extends funding for half of the government through March 8th and the rest until March 22nd.

00:00:53.580 Congressional leaders say they have an agreement on six of the 12 appropriations bills and plan to finalize the details and debate the package clearing the way for it to be signed into law by March 8th.

00:01:06.280 If they fail, they face another partial shutdown next week.

00:01:10.580 Joe Biden had his annual physical this week.

00:01:13.220 The White House doctor says Biden is in great health and ready to serve.

00:01:18.260 Among the only things the White House physician found were that Biden has a stiffened gait and neuropathy in his feet.

00:01:26.880 That's what they blame for his missteps and tumbles.

00:01:29.940 President Trump not holding back on his latest campaign video.

00:01:33.920 He's sick and tired of the Marxist-run mainstream media comparing his cognition to Joe Biden's. 0.99

00:01:40.340 President Trump says there's no comparison because Joe Biden is a mental midget. 0.98

00:01:46.220 The radical left Democrats are at it again. 1.00

00:01:49.240 They're constantly making up stories about me because their candidate is a mental and physical basket case. 0.99

00:01:56.120 There's never been anything like it. 0.99

00:01:57.880 He's also the worst president in the history of our country.

00:02:00.340 He went on a very poorly rated show last night and he talked about Donald Trump and his wife.

00:02:06.500 I don't know the name of my wife.

00:02:08.540 He was referring to the fact that at CPAC, where I had a sold out speech, the biggest audience they've had in years, I think maybe ever.

00:02:16.380 I made the statement that Melania was very popular because when I mentioned her name, the audience went wild.

00:02:23.200 I then looked at the two people, man and wife, Matt and Mercedes Schlapp, and I said, wow, they really like the first lady.

00:02:30.740 So this got taken as the fact that I thought Mercedes was the first lady.

00:02:34.720 It has nothing to do with that.

00:02:36.340 These people are really dishonest. 0.90

00:02:39.500 They are absolutely something. 1.00

00:02:42.040 They have a horrible candidate who's a horrible president. 0.95

00:02:46.160 They make up things constantly. 0.54

00:02:48.180 You take a look at when I use Barack Hussein Obama and I interject him into where it's supposed to be Biden.

00:02:57.040 And I do it purposely for comedic reasons and for sarcasm, because a lot of people say that Obama is running the country, not Biden, because he's sleeping all the time.

00:03:06.140 They say, oh, I don't know the name of the president.

00:03:08.520 Or when I imitate this guy getting off a stage, what they do is they say, oh, he had trouble getting off a stage.

00:03:15.140 I have no trouble getting off a stage.

00:03:16.760 Anybody that watches what I do at rallies would say, wow, that's amazing.

00:03:20.980 He can go two hours without a teleprompter, not making even a little mistake.

00:03:25.680 Very few people, maybe almost nobody can do what I do.

00:03:28.460 So here's the story.

00:03:30.480 The disinformation of the Democrats is unbelievable.

00:03:34.500 They do it because they have a horrible candidate. 0.98

00:03:36.720 Don't associate me with the mental midget that you portray, because I want to tell you, he should not be leading this country. 1.00

00:03:45.060 And hopefully on November 5th, he's not going to be. 0.76

00:03:48.200 We're going to have a big election.

00:03:49.180 We're going to have a big victory and we're going to make America great again.

00:03:52.440 Thank you.

00:03:52.940 Absolutely brilliant for President Trump.

00:03:56.120 There's no comparison at all, of course, to be made between him and the puppet president.

00:04:01.140 Not on cognition, not on running the country, not on a thing.

00:04:05.500 Our guest today is House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan.

00:04:09.460 Chairman Jordan was in the deposition this week with Hunter Biden and he joins us now.

00:04:14.340 Mr. Chairman, thanks so much for being with us.

00:04:16.280 I know you're busy as you can be, but we appreciate your time.

00:04:19.600 I want to start with, first of all, your impression of Hunter Biden's appearance before your committee.

00:04:25.960 Well, the House rules prohibit us from getting into specifics, but I can say this.

00:04:30.000 There were a number of things that he said that were just directly contradictory to what we got from other witnesses and frankly, from some of the evidence we've seen.

00:04:40.520 So I think that's probably the biggest takeaway I got from it.

00:04:43.580 I think also there's it sort of provides us some, I think, valuable information, sort of a roadmap, if you will, if in fact we have a public hearing, which we're discussing now.

00:04:54.540 So that was my main takeaway.

00:04:56.460 But nothing Hunter Biden said yesterday, I think, changes the fundamental facts of the Bidens were peddling this.

00:05:03.260 I call it the money, the business, the brand.

00:05:05.720 It was access to the brand that I think is has been so critical.

00:05:09.780 And that's what they had all these companies doing, all this money coming in.

00:05:13.800 And then the case study, I think the most telling case study, of course, is the actions then Vice President Biden took relative to the prosecutor in Ukraine and the pressure that prosecutor was applying to Burisma, the company Hunter Biden sat on the board of and was paid a million dollars a year.

00:05:30.860 When the vice president leveraged and conditioned the release of American tax money on the firing of that very prosecutor, I think that's the case study and how this all kind of fits together.

00:05:42.120 And your reaction when Hunter Biden began in his opening statement by saying that he his father didn't have anything to do with his business dealings.

00:05:52.280 Well, there's numerous phone calls.

00:05:55.380 We knew that from Devin Archer.

00:05:56.820 There's pictures of Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and his business partners on the golf course.

00:06:02.460 There's testimony that says Joe Biden stopped by lunches and had dinners with foreign individuals who Hunter Biden and his partners were doing business with.

00:06:13.720 So that doesn't seem to square with, again, what we've heard from previous witnesses.

00:06:18.620 Some of those witnesses were, in fact, partners.

00:06:20.760 I mean, Devin Archer, Rob Walker, partners of Hunter Biden, and that's what they've testified to.

00:06:26.440 So, again, I can't get into all the specifics of yesterday's testimony until we actually release the transcript, because those are the House rules.

00:06:33.240 And as you listen to Hunter Biden respond, there were there was great interest, of course, in whether or not he would would acknowledge the fact that this was a contest for democracy, making some remarkable statements before the for the hearing, saying that his sobriety was key to the survival of democracy.

00:06:59.440 I I I've never heard such an outlandish statement or such a narcissistic statement by I can't remember one that would top that.

00:07:09.920 Yeah, here's what I know about statements to statements from the White House and statements from David Weiss and the Justice Department keep changing.

00:07:20.420 I mean, remember what Joe Biden told us a few years ago, he said, I never spoke to my son about any of his business dealings.

00:07:27.440 Well, then that changed to the White House saying, well, Joe Biden was never in business with his son.

00:07:33.420 And then, of course, late last year, when Hunter Biden failed to appear when we had subpoenaed him to come in and testify, he said in his press conference, my father was never financially involved in my business.

00:07:47.480 So their story keeps changing. David Weiss and the Justice Department on how they've handled this investigation and what authorities they had, that keeps changing.

00:07:55.300 But one thing I said, one thing I've noticed is the whistleblower's testimony has not wavered.

00:08:00.700 It has not changed. And they've stood up to a cross-examination.

00:08:03.880 Tony Bobulinski, who came forward four years ago, his testimony, his statements have not changed and I think stood up to examination when he came in for his deposition.

00:08:14.100 So, yeah, you get some statements from the Bidens in the White House and from the Justice Department that don't seem to be too consistent.

00:08:21.260 And talking about Bobulinski, his early statements back in the earliest days of this mess right after the election, in point of fact, he had more insight into what was going on and had anyone really listened to him.

00:08:45.500 And I'm talking about in the national news media. History might have been changed. What do you think?

00:08:53.020 Well, yeah, because this happened in the context of the presidential election, things that Tony Bobulinski said that were not not we're not really reported or even much covered by the mainstream media.

00:09:03.320 And then, of course, you couple that with this false narrative about the Hunter Biden laptop, where 51 former Intel officials put together a statement that said this has all the earmarks of a Russian information operation, which was baloney.

00:09:18.900 And then that got peddled by the mainstream press and polling and common sense tell us that if the American people had known the truth about the laptop at the time, it would have changed, likely changed the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.

00:09:32.860 So, yeah, those are all all concerns about how things were reported.

00:09:38.220 False information was given to we, the people in the run up to the most important election we have, election for president.

00:09:43.660 Absolutely. And then it comes full circle here these years later.

00:09:48.820 And the Democrats are right now saying that you are being being taken by Russian propaganda.

00:09:57.720 They don't seem to have another tool in their box, do they?

00:10:01.700 This is always about Russian propaganda.

00:10:03.960 And it shows a certain affection for the for the propaganda that the Dems gin up and spread across this country, because this came from the DNC and from the Clinton campaign originally.

00:10:17.600 Yeah.

00:10:18.180 2016, it was, you know, Trump colluded with Russia.

00:10:21.000 And we had a 30 million dollar investigation by Robert Mueller with 19 lawyers and 40 agents and all this.

00:10:26.560 And they found nothing because there was nothing there.

00:10:29.140 There was no collusion, no coordination, no conspiracy whatsoever.

00:10:32.400 Then in 2020 is what I just talked about.

00:10:35.180 It was, oh, the laptop was a Russian information operation, which was baloney.

00:10:40.100 And now they're trying it again.

00:10:42.620 You know, I guess they just here we go one more time.

00:10:45.940 So the Democrats have the same old playbook.

00:10:48.880 I think the American people are smart and the American people also see, frankly, that what we had under President Trump was a president who could project strength from the Oval Office, who did what he said he was going to do.

00:10:59.380 We had a roaring economy, a secure border.

00:11:01.740 We had two dollar gas, not four dollar gas.

00:11:04.480 And now we compare that to Joe Biden.

00:11:07.140 And I think the American people are going to put President Trump back in the White House.

00:11:10.440 Well, I think you're right about that.

00:11:12.080 Certainly, I agree with the with the assessment that he is absolutely critical.

00:11:17.800 This country's continued existence.

00:11:21.400 I want to turn to the House Republicans, the subpoena for the Joe Biden special counsel records and the importance of those in the congressional investigation.

00:11:33.980 Yeah, I mean, Robert, her special counsel in his report, in his investigation, says Joe Biden willfully, intentionally, deliberately took classified documents, mishandled classified documents over a period, over decades of time while he was in the Senate, while he was vice president.

00:11:51.680 He willfully, intentionally did that.

00:11:53.180 Then he willfully, intentionally, deliberately gave that information, some of that classified material to his ghostwriter who was writing his book.

00:12:03.540 And yet, Robert, her says, I'm not going to prosecute because Joe Biden is an old guy who can't remember and will be sympathetic to a jury.

00:12:12.100 And the Democrats have said, oh, well, that's that's that you can't say that, Mr.

00:12:16.000 Special Counsel, you that's gratuitous comments about the president's state of mind and his forgetfulness.

00:12:20.500 You can't say that because it's not true.

00:12:23.200 Well, what we've said is give us the material.

00:12:25.680 Let us see.

00:12:26.260 Let the American people see the audiotapes of how when you interviewed Joe Biden, what he had to say and other documents that you use, Mr.

00:12:33.420 Herr, in your investigation.

00:12:35.000 So that's why we've asked for that information.

00:12:36.980 We think the American people, you got two different perspectives here.

00:12:39.840 We think the American people are entitled to see.

00:12:43.960 And an additional data point, we have the president's annual physical.

00:12:48.360 His doctor, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, saying that he is in in very good shape and that he has no new ailments from the last physical a year ago.

00:13:00.340 But he did not advise a cognitive test.

00:13:04.280 Your thoughts about that omission from his overall examination?

00:13:08.740 I mean, I leave that up to the White House and to the Biden family and the president and his position.

00:13:15.800 But what I do know is what we we, the people of this great country and frankly, I think foreign heads of state, what we all see.

00:13:24.380 And it's sad. And I don't like to talk about it because you want your president, even though I disagree with Joe Biden's policies and positions, you want the president of our country, the greatest country ever to be up to the task.

00:13:35.960 But I think anyone with common sense can frankly see that he's just not.

00:13:40.460 And it's sad, but it's a reality. And it's and it's part of what Robert Herr said in his report.

00:13:46.800 And so it's again, we go back to why we think this information is important for us to have and more importantly, for the American people to see.

00:13:54.100 And it is interesting, the difference, the contradictory view about who asked which question and indeed, even the answers that were forthcoming from the president.

00:14:05.420 I just have to say, I agree with you about not even liking to talk about Joe Biden, his infirmity, his his impairment.

00:14:16.560 And but I also think it's important that we understand just what what is at stake here, the American people I'm referring to, because we are in dangerous times.

00:14:28.480 And I would be delighted if all of this nation's enemies would, well, would stall until we can get President Trump into the White House, because this is a vulnerability to our national security, this White House that I don't like to contemplate.

00:14:47.040 Well, yeah, I mean, you I got asked a question by a reporter a while back, you know, can you name some good policy the Biden administration has done?

00:14:55.300 And I actually stopped and thought about it for a second. And you reached the conclusion.

00:15:00.060 You I can't name one one positive thing because everything secure border to no border, safe streets, record crime, two dollar gas to four dollar gas, stable prices to record inflation, projecting weakness.

00:15:11.560 The debacle that was the exit from Afghanistan, the weaponization of government against we, if you could just keep going, it's been a complete disaster.

00:15:18.620 But maybe the scariest thing is what's happened to the border, this this Lake and Riley situation when Joe Biden just has an open border and people come in and then they do something wrong and local prosecutors don't hold them accountable and they're released.

00:15:34.140 And then they do some something terrible like what happened, this tragedy that happened to this young lady in Georgia.

00:15:39.680 And then this is how bad it's gotten under Joe Biden. And I think the American people have had it.

00:15:46.540 And I do think they're going to show up in a big way this coming fall and put President Trump, as I said before, back in the White House.

00:15:53.400 We continue with Congressman Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee in just a moment.

00:15:59.760 Please stay with us. We'll be right back.

00:16:01.500 We'll be right back.

00:17:34.480 Be ready tomorrow.

00:17:38.560 We're back now with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan.

00:17:42.840 Mr. Chairman, right now, have you got a sense, an estimate of when you will reach a point in your investigation that you say,

00:17:53.960 we have enough, we are prepared to proceed?

00:17:58.040 Well, I think the case has always been compelling.

00:18:01.120 The evidence we've already accumulated, but this is going to be a decision for the full House.

00:18:07.160 Now, next week, we have Sally Painter in for a deposition. 1.00

00:18:10.700 Sally Painter was part of this Democrat public relations firm that did work for the Ukrainian energy company,

00:18:16.580 this company, Burisma, that Hunter Biden sat on the board of.

00:18:19.560 We think that's important.

00:18:20.580 The following week, that second week of March, we have in Robert Herr for an open hearing on his his special counsel report.

00:18:29.580 But we were talking about earlier and in his assessment of Joe Biden and his handling of those classified documents.

00:18:36.200 So I think we get through all that.

00:18:38.800 We may, in fact, Chairman Comer's talked about a public hearing for Hunter Biden.

00:18:43.920 So that may that may happen as well.

00:18:45.800 And I think we work through that.

00:18:47.280 We continue to do our oversight work.

00:18:48.860 And then, you know, at some point we have to make a decision.

00:18:52.260 Are there is there do we draft articles of impeachment?

00:18:55.680 And if so, are there the votes for those articles?

00:18:58.280 That's something we have to figure out.

00:18:59.700 But right now, I've said all along, we're doing our impeachment inquiry.

00:19:04.020 We're looking into this and we will do just like the Constitution requires our constitutional duty to do oversight of the executive branch.

00:19:11.040 And then we'll make a decision.

00:19:12.980 And looking at the evidence that you've compiled to this point, I mean, this is you said compelling.

00:19:20.800 I think it's convincing to certainly to those who are reasonable and have an open mind and are not hard charging advocates of the left.

00:19:33.960 There's there's very little little doubt that that there is culpability here and responsibility that has just been in responsibility under the Constitution.

00:19:46.360 Those duties have been, well, either ignored or there's been a transgression for almost everything that one could imagine when it comes to Joe Biden and Hunter Biden in particular.

00:20:00.140 I'm fascinated with the Marxist stamps and particularly Congressman Dan Goldman, who with straight with a straight face each time he attempts to smear the investigation or the chairman of the principal committees.

00:20:15.940 What do you make of him and what is your reaction?

00:20:20.580 Is it just politics as usual or is there something particularly venal in all of this on the part of the left?

00:20:27.460 Well, yeah, I mean, part of it is partisanship, I think.

00:20:30.740 And part of it, I think, is just driven by there's some of the left just have this.

00:20:35.200 Well, it seems like almost everyone on the left just has this this this almost hatred of President Trump.

00:20:41.060 And they they I think in some way they use that as a way to so defend the actions of of the Biden family.

00:20:49.180 So what we wrote a long piece, we put it on our Twitter, but we walk through this whole thing.

00:20:54.580 And I think it's a it's a it's a fairly long story, but in-depth story where we talk first about the money, the business, the brand, how they did this operation before Joe Biden was candidate.

00:21:04.280 Then we talk about the actions they took while he was candidate, the lies, the campaign, the rigged election.

00:21:09.860 You know, the 51 former intel officials, the things they said that were false, that they knew at the time were false, how the FBI helped them in the Justice Department, help them out on this.

00:21:17.000 And then, of course, it's to cover up the obstruction and the sweetheart deal once Joe Biden becomes president.

00:21:23.520 And that's David Weiss and this crazy way they try to handle this investigation, try to get the sweetheart deal past the court.

00:21:29.760 The court said no to it. And then that very guy who did a sweetheart deal that no one would accept.

00:21:35.000 They got lapped out of court. That's the individual who gets named as the special counsel.

00:21:39.400 I mean, you can't make this stuff up. And of course, the case study in all this that kind of shows how it all worked together was Burisma and that and how Joe Biden fired the prosecutor.

00:21:50.480 Hunter Biden's on the board. How David Weiss let the statute of limitations run for those tax years when Hunter Biden was getting the bulk of the Burisma income.

00:21:58.680 That's the case study that we highlight in this long opinion piece we put together earlier this week.

00:22:04.640 Well, Mr. Chairman, we appreciate you taking the time to be with us today and to give us your insight into what your committee and the other investigating committees are doing.

00:22:14.760 And we appreciate it greatly. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan.
