Biden, Xi, Zelensky, and special counsel Robert Herr, all working together to bring down President Trump and his plans for election day in November 2024. What does this all have in common? They are all in cahoots with each other, and they all have a common enemy: President Trump.
00:09:13.500So I do believe it changes now that we were able to muster a majority and pass this legislation, which moves us in the right direction.
00:09:21.620Well, congratulations on that, and congratulations on the continued pace of your investigation in the Judiciary Committee, the Weaponization Committee.
00:09:33.240And America is watching closely everything that you're doing.
00:09:37.100Let's go to the issue of Hunter Biden right now talking with the Justice Department officials about what has been ostensibly a six-year-long investigation that began with tax evasion.
00:09:52.260Does that have any influence or impact on your investigation in Judiciary?
00:09:58.080No, no, we'll just – we're going to keep doing what we need to do, follow the facts, depose witnesses, have hearings, look at the subpoena documents, all the stuff that we're – we're going to keep doing that.
00:10:10.800But when you step back and look at the Hunter Biden situation, it's really – think about what Chairman Comer has said, 170 suspicious activity reports, thousands of pages, multiple LLCs that money is coming into.
00:10:26.040Now he's told us that 12 Biden family members are getting paid, and the money is coming from these foreign entities, these foreign countries.
00:10:34.340And all that is suspicious enough, is crazy enough.
00:10:39.640But then you ask sort of the fundamental question, what service did they provide?
00:10:46.500What did they do to warrant receiving this kind of money?
00:10:50.340And no one has an answer to that sort of fundamental question.
00:10:53.360So, yeah, we're – Mr. Comer and the Oversight Committee, we're going to continue to look at this and get to the bottom of it because the American people have the right to know.
00:11:02.900And whistleblowers stepping forward initially, is that pace continuing?
00:11:09.100Are more employees of the Justice Department, the FBI, stepping forward as whistleblowers to your committee to Oversight and your weaponization subcommittee?
00:11:22.040We just opposed a new whistleblower last week.
00:11:26.620We've now had multiple whistleblowers talk to us.
00:11:34.460We had the lady at the FBI who we think has been signing off on what we believe is retaliation against these whistleblowers, the lady who signs off and takes their clearance away.
00:11:45.620So, we've now – she was in under a transcribed interview format.
00:11:49.300So, we've now issued a subpoena to that individual to answer questions about what we perceive and certainly what the FBI agents believe is retaliation for their willingness to come forward and share this important information with us.
00:12:00.560And she is the deputy director of human resources for the FBI.
00:12:05.560What in the world would be the basis for her not responding to what would be within her, obviously, her venue?
00:12:35.920We'll ask her the same questions that she refused to answer earlier this week.
00:12:39.340And an official of HHS volunteering the information that 85,000 children are missing at your subcommittee on immigration, chaired by Tom McClintock.
00:13:11.080This is what happens when you intentionally say we're no longer going to have a board, when you deliberately put in place the policies that Joe Biden decided he was going to do on day one.
00:13:19.860Day one, he said, no more remain in Mexico, no more building the wall, no more turning people away.
00:13:24.680Once you get in, we will release you to other parts of the country.
00:13:28.160And then the cartels see that, and they're in the business of moving drugs and moving people, and they move people.
00:13:32.800And there's these kids who are being just exploited.
00:14:33.080We're back now talking with Congressman Jim Jordan, the chair of the Judiciary Committee, and also the Weaponization Subcommittee.
00:14:41.940I want to go to the request that has just been made by the attorneys for President Donald Trump seeking intervention from the Congress on the classified documents controversy that's taking place,
00:14:59.080including, of course, the raid on Mar-a-Lago and the president's property and search and seizure.
00:15:04.060We're looking for your help, particularly that of the Intelligence Committee as well.
00:15:11.860Well, we'll see where Chairman Turner and the Intelligence Committee go with this.
00:15:15.660What I do know is if – and I'm actually very, very concerned about this, Lou – if the Georgia attorney does what Alvin Bragg did on a local level and goes after President Trump,
00:15:27.520that's – we know what Alvin Bragg did is ridiculous.
00:15:30.640If the Georgia attorney does the same thing, that's ridiculous as well.
00:15:33.400But if Jack Smith, the special counsel, if he indicts President Trump and if he indicts him on this classified document issue and doesn't indict Joe Biden –
00:15:43.580I mean Joe Biden had classified documents at four different locations for good – had it at the Penn Center, had some in Chinatown, he had it at his home, and he had some at his beach home.
00:15:51.760I mean – but I'm afraid that that's where this may be headed even though everyone knows what's going on here is so political.
00:15:59.180So we'll see what Chairman Turner and the Intel Committee come up with.
00:16:03.380But I'm very nervous, very nervous that that's where it's going to go, and that would be, I think, so harmful to the rule of law and how our country is supposed to operate.
00:16:12.180This must be particularly – it is, of course, frustrating to the President of the United States.
00:16:17.920He's confronting five legal actions right now, as well as a special counsel.
00:16:25.500Jack Smith is nothing more than an ideological, if you will, partisan hack who is assigned this – what will be assassination by litigation.
00:16:43.400None of the respected names and personages in law are supportive of a single one of these lawsuits, whether it's civil, whether it's Letitia James, or whether it is Fulton County, whatever the charge may be.
00:17:15.120Well, we got a – you know, we got a great decision from the court, Southern District of New York, last week.
00:17:19.660Because – remember what happened with VA Alvin Bragg.
00:17:22.920So Alvin Bragg indicts a former president, uses federal funds to indict a former president for no crime.
00:17:30.260And then when we went to talk to Mr. Pomerantz, who hasn't worked for him for a year, Alvin Bragg took us to court.
00:17:36.360Took us to court and said – tried to stop the subpoena.
00:17:38.700So he goes to court, and the court, in a clear, in a strong decision in our favor, said no.
00:17:44.080Mr. Pomerantz has to show up for the deposition.
00:17:46.940So Mr. Pomerantz is going to be coming on May the 12th for his deposition, and we're going to ask him questions.
00:17:53.100We're going to ask him a lot of questions about what he wrote in his book, and his book was solely about this issue of going after President Trump.
00:18:00.040So that was a huge win for us, and we're going to talk about possible legislation that we need to pass, about limiting how certain federal funds can be used by these DAs if they're going to go after a former president.
00:18:12.100So those are the kind of things that we think are important, and the court was clear about the legislative purpose we have in wanting to talk to Mr. Pomerantz.
00:18:21.240So that's, I think, a big win for us, and we'll look forward to that deposition.
00:18:26.820Well, and congratulations on that decision.
00:18:29.500And to go back to the question of what is available to the president.
00:18:35.540This is supposed to be a government of checks and balances.
00:18:38.640We've never had a president indicted, let alone have six legal actions underway, including another special counsel, two impeachments.
00:18:50.300So where is the chief justice of the Supreme Court, where is the Supreme Court in this, and why is there not a remedy within our government structure for what is clear political persecution on the part of the Marxist Dems?
00:19:07.540Well, I mean, I can't speak for the Supreme Court, but what I can say is this.
00:19:12.020The ultimate remedy for the harassment that President Trump has faced from 2016 when he came down the escalator, I think ultimately the power resides with we the people.
00:19:23.160And President Trump has indicated he's running for president.
00:19:27.360I think he did a great job as our president in doing what he told the American people he was going to do.
00:19:31.940And in November of 2024, I think the American people have a chance to say who they want to be back in the White House.
00:19:37.160And if you look at the record of Joe Biden, where they have – I don't – you can't point to one policy area where there's something good happening.
00:19:45.280I mean, the border is no longer a border.
00:19:47.160Record crime, record inflation, record energy prices, record debt, the debacle that was Afghanistan exit.
00:19:54.260I mean, it's just like you can go on and on.
00:19:55.800So I do think that's the ultimate check.
00:19:58.240But there will be some cases that I think will make their way up to the Supreme Court relative to everything we've seen from the hard left and the Democrats over the last several years.
00:20:08.680I think you're right, obviously, about what the limitations are right now, that the ballot box will have to be the way in which we do rectify what are great, great injuries to this republic.
00:20:22.160But if we do not have an electoral system that has integrity and voters are assured of a clean, fair, honest election, we are at an end point in the life of this republic.
00:20:40.120And right now we know that CISA, the Cyber and Infrastructure Committee agency, was incorrect when a day later it said there was the most secure election in our country's history in 2020.
00:20:55.840It took two years for them to acknowledge that mistake.
00:20:58.940We know full well that the electronic voting devices had vulnerabilities that could have been exploited.
00:21:28.880The part that bothers me the most is what we learned from our deposition, our transcribed interview with Mike Morrell, and how that the Biden campaign was involved with this now famous letter from 51 former intel officials.
00:21:47.940I think that had a huge impact on the outcome of the election where Tony Blinken, working for the Biden campaign, now Secretary of State, contacts Mike Morrell three days after the New York Post story comes out on the Biden laptop story.
00:22:02.580And he contacts Mike Morrell and says, hey, what about this Russian interference, gets Morrell to look into it all.
00:22:09.080Morrell organizes the letter the next two days, the 18th and 19th.
00:22:12.160And on the 22nd, they have the letter that Joe Biden uses in the debate to go against what President Trump asserted.
00:22:19.660And Morrell told us in this deposition, Lou, that the reason he did it all was because he knew President Trump was going to bring it up.
00:22:26.540He wanted Joe Biden to have something to be able to use, and he wanted Joe Biden to win.
00:22:30.460And when it's all done, because it played out just like that when it's all done, he gets a call from Steve Reschetti.
00:22:36.280And Steve Reschetti said, thank you for doing that.
00:22:38.520And Steve Reschetti was the chairman of the Biden campaign.
00:22:40.740So that's the part that really bothers me, because it was portrayed by the president, by President Biden, then candidate Biden, as if it was organic.
00:22:53.360When, in fact, it was prompted and orchestrated and coordinated by the Biden campaign, for goodness sake.
00:23:00.900That's the part that bothers me the most.
00:23:02.320It bothers me, I can't say the most, because there are so many things that bother me about the 2020 election, including the fact that Bill Barr, the attorney general, knew that Joe Biden was lying in that second debate, the final debate about the laptop from hell, Hunter Biden's laptop.
00:23:24.260And he is also the attorney general who had dispatched FBI agents to suppress conservative voices in social media, legacy media, and killed a story that should have been the Pulitzer Prize winning story of 2020.
00:23:40.440That is the New York Post story on the Hunter Biden laptop.
00:23:50.280This has been a conspiracy against the against history and history was changed by I think you're exactly right, by Mike Morrell, by Tony Blinken.
00:24:04.400Yeah, no, it you know, because but for that letter, Joe Biden may not win.
00:24:10.220And if he doesn't win, we don't have all the things we've been talking about, all the chaos that now, you know, been the Biden administration with the border, with inflation, with energy policy, with crime.
00:24:20.280I mean, every major urban area now is seeing record increases in crime.
00:24:24.120So you don't have all this stuff, the lack of respect that that foreign powers now have for for the United States because of the weakness projected from the Oval Office.
00:24:35.320So, yeah, that that was a huge, huge concern in that election.
00:24:40.220And as you and I both believe, probably impacted the election in the way that it did.
00:24:45.080Well, I would like to just say that if if we may, we can take a quick break here and we'll come right back for your concluding thoughts as we continue with Congressman Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.
00:24:58.840We're back with Chairman Jim Jordan of the Judiciary Committee.
00:25:05.060Mr. Chairman, I want to conclude with, if I may, your thoughts going forward about what we can expect from the 118th Congress, the the the massive undertaking that you are leading, which is with the Weaponization Committee, the Judiciary Committee.
00:25:22.880Congressman James Comer with the Oversight Committee.
00:25:27.220Yeah, I mean, I really think when you boil it all down, the focus is on the First Amendment and what the Democrats are doing to undermine our right to speak, our right to speak in a political fashion.
00:25:41.980You know, we learned this from the Twitter files.
00:25:43.580We had that amazing hearing where we had two of the authors of some of the Twitter files, Michael Schellenberger and Matt Taibbi.
00:25:49.560And and while they're talking, while they're testifying, the Democrats during that hearing, ask them, who who are your sources?
00:25:58.120Direct attack on the First Amendment. And maybe the scariest thing of all was while Matt Taibbi was was there at that hearing, the IRS was knocking on his door.
00:26:07.460I mean, it's the chance that that just by coincidence or chances, it just nobody believes everyone believes that was done for intimidation reasons.
00:26:16.520That is what we mean by when we when we talk about the weaponization of government.
00:26:19.680But you boil it all down. It's really about our fundamental liberties, our First Amendment rights.
00:26:24.340And we're going to continue to dig into this and make sure that we do everything we can to protect those rights, get the facts on the table, propose legislation.
00:26:31.340And if we have to use the appropriations process to limit some of the dollars that go to these these agencies, whatever weapon is in your that you have at your disposal to fight the weaponization of the federal government and to make the American people the enemy of our government.
00:26:49.680You know, God bless and Godspeed. This is this is not a Democratic Party any longer.
00:26:55.900It is a fifth column intent on the destruction of this republic and our way of life.
00:27:02.240Congressman Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, as always, we appreciate you being with us and thank you for your everything you're doing.
00:27:12.700Thank you, Lou. Thanks for all you do to protect freedom and advance the principles that make America special.
00:27:18.440Chairman Jim Jordan, remarkable congressman, remarkable leader of the Republican Party.
00:27:23.200And these Republican investigations are already producing results.
00:27:28.280The public is learning more every week about the extent, the depth of the corruption in the Biden administration.
00:27:34.820And our thanks, of course, to Chairman Jordan.
00:27:37.780Here tomorrow, we'll be taking up the flashpoints that with the Biden administration's policies could well drag us into a major conflict, which brings me to today's quotation.
00:28:06.280We'll be living dangerously here tomorrow.
00:28:08.840And we want to say hello to all our friends of this podcast in India, Indonesia, Canada, Australia and around the world.
00:28:16.240Tomorrow, we'll be taking up the new Republican legislation on immigration and border security.
00:28:21.460Great American Congressman Andy Biggs joins us here tomorrow again on immigration and border security.
00:28:28.880Governor Greg Abbott has just announced that he has added the number of Texas DPS officers at the border because in the last two weeks alone, 24,000 illegal immigrants, all of them from Venezuela, has crossed over into the state of Texas and, of course, the United States.
