Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Thanks for being with us.
00:01:23.120
A major victory may finally be on the horizon for President Trump in his fight against the Biden
00:01:28.420
regime, the Marxist Dems and the deep state. A federal judge is reviewing the corrupt Marxist Dem
00:01:34.820
prosecutors who are obviously part of the plot to interfere in the 2024 election. The junkyard
00:01:41.700
Marxist Dems Jack Smith's plan of jamming President Trump into criminal trials just a few months apart
00:01:48.080
may have backfired. President Trump's attorneys were in court this week and told Judge Aline Cannon,
00:01:55.120
the judge in the Mar-a-Lago documents case in Florida, that the two cases would require President
00:02:00.820
Trump and his attorneys to be in two places at the same time. Of course, Smith knew that when he asked
00:02:07.800
for those court dates, Trump's attorneys also complained that Smith has still not turned over
00:02:12.800
to the president all the discovery for the case. At the conclusion of the hearing, Judge Cannon said,
00:02:18.780
quote, I'm having a hard time seeing how this work can be accomplished realistically in this period of
00:02:25.720
time, end quote. Judge Cannon told Just Department Prosecutor Jay Bratt, who asked to keep the trial
00:02:32.640
schedule as is, of course, quote, I'm not seeing in your position a level of understanding to these
00:02:39.580
realities, end quote. The judge making it pretty clear that she's not pleased. The court already has
00:02:46.640
a packed schedule and summer recess, so it's looking likely to be after the 2024 presidential election.
00:02:53.780
In fact, right now, the special counsel looks like he's part of a conspiracy against President Trump.
00:02:59.400
The judge may have something to say about that as well. Two rhinos on the way out of Congress both
00:03:05.860
work to block Congressman Jim Jordan's speakership bid. Representatives Kay Granger of Texas and Ken
00:03:11.820
Buck of Colorado calling it quits. The two rhinos say they won't seek re-election next year.
00:03:17.460
Granger heading off to retirement, most likely after her 30-year stint in Congress, while Rhino Buck
00:03:23.760
obviously looking for a job, perhaps on CNN or MSNBC, where he seems to feel right at home.
00:03:32.840
How does it, how do they, how do you unite behind decisions, complicated decisions with such a thin
00:03:39.900
margin? What about your own role? Yeah, well, I have decided, Andrea, I'm not going to seek re-election.
00:03:45.620
You too? Yeah, I am joining Kay and probably some others in the near future, but I've decided that
00:03:52.180
it is time for me to do some other things. I'm always have been disappointed with our inability
00:03:58.160
in Congress to deal with major issues. And I'm also disappointed that the Republican Party continues
00:04:03.740
to, you know, rely on this lie that the 2020 election was stolen and rely on the January 6th
00:04:11.660
narrative and the political prisoners from January 6th and other things. It's, if we're going to solve
00:04:16.940
difficult problems, we've got to deal with some very unpleasant truths or lies and make sure that
00:04:22.220
we project to the public what the truth is. And speaking of rhinos, we have a few more rhinos to
00:04:29.320
talk about today. Let's first talk about the New York rhinos who tried to expel George Santos from
00:04:34.660
Congress last week. Congressman Anthony Desposito drafted the legislation co-sponsored by fellow New
00:04:41.800
York rhino reps, Lalota, Lawler, Molinaro, Langworthy, and Williams. I first want to point out that
00:04:49.540
constitutional due process doesn't apply here. We have the facts. They've been outlined over the
00:04:56.700
last 10 months. And the facts are that Mr. Santos actually admitted to those lies and deceptions.
00:05:05.540
He references the concern of this body and the fact that we quote, maybe losing trust.
00:05:12.700
I want to let everyone in on a stark reminder coming from New York, New Yorkers don't agree
00:05:22.520
on much of anything, but 78% of the individuals who live in the third congressional district do not
00:05:31.820
want George Santos as their representative. So it seems to me that trust has already been lost.
00:05:39.520
Desposito wants no due process at all for George Santos. I give Speaker of the House Mike Johnson
00:05:45.160
great credit on this, keeping most of his conference united and assuring Santos at least due process.
00:05:52.360
Turning now to the Senate and the rhinos at work there, Senators Lindsey Graham, Todd Young,
00:05:58.060
Mitt Romney, Dan Sullivan, and Joni Ernst all turning on Senator Tommy Tuberville for putting what has
00:06:04.560
been a nine-month hold on general and flag officer promotions until the military drops its abortion
00:06:11.280
policy. The military policy provides pay for military members to cross state lines to get abortions.
00:06:18.400
Those five Senate rhinos all came out publicly against Tuberville this week. Our guest today is the man
00:06:24.880
leading the House Oversight Investigation Committee Chairman James Comer. Congressman Comer, great to have
00:06:30.400
you back with us. Thanks so much for joining us. You now have a new speaker. Does Speaker Johnson bring
00:06:36.260
a new energy and sense of urgency to the investigating committees? Does it help your committee in particular?
00:06:43.300
It really does. Mike Johnson, someone that I consulted with a lot, he's on the Judiciary Committee.
00:06:49.240
Obviously, the Oversight Committee is working closely with Judiciary. Judiciary is focused on the
00:06:54.320
weaponization of the government. Judiciary is focused on the cover-up oversight. My committee,
00:06:59.660
we're focused on the crimes. So we're working hand in hand because it's not just an investigation of
00:07:05.660
Biden crimes. It's investigation of the crime and the cover-up. So Mike entered the speakership with
00:07:11.820
a good deal of knowledge about all the wrongdoing from the Biden family. And he said early on that
00:07:18.680
he's interested in holding them accountable. So it does add badly needed energy to this investigation.
00:07:24.440
And I'm very optimistic about working with him in the future.
00:07:29.440
I want to get your opinion on this because it's fundamental. Do you not believe,
00:07:37.360
and I'll put it this way, I believe you all have developed enough information to bring charges against
00:07:42.060
the President of the United States without any question. Do you believe that?
00:07:46.080
Yes, I do. I think we had already made the case long before we found these last two checks
00:07:52.360
to Joe Biden. But, you know, what we've got now is direct evidence that Joe Biden benefited
00:07:58.820
financially. Now, the White House law is trying to say these two checks were loans. They don't have
00:08:03.520
any evidence that they were loans other than on the memo line of the check, it says loan repayment.
00:08:09.160
But even if they were loans low, it doesn't matter. The family couldn't have paid the money back
00:08:14.480
had they not influence peddled the health care company in Florida and the Chinese nationals. So
00:08:21.800
either way, Joe Biden's $240,000 better off because of his family influence peddling. Now,
00:08:28.600
we think we've already produced enough evidence, but, you know, that's going to be the call of the
00:08:35.340
Speaker. We're going to continue digging. I believe there's a lot more evidence out there.
00:08:39.860
It's like pulling teeth. We're fighting the DOJ, the FBI, the media, the Democrats on the Oversight
00:08:45.900
Committee, the IRS. But at the end of the day, we continue on at least a weekly basis to come up
00:08:52.520
with more evidence, more checks, more wires. We'll continue to do that whenever the Speaker's ready
00:08:57.740
to go to the next level. Then I am more than ready to go to the next level. I've been ready for a long
00:09:03.460
time. But until we get the green light, we're going to keep digging. And Jordan's doing the
00:09:09.040
same thing. Jim Jordan's doing the same thing on the Judiciary Committee. And if you do move to
00:09:14.420
impeachment, what are the powers that then accrue to the investigation that you don't have now?
00:09:22.080
And how much more powerful would the investigation be, given all of the administration,
00:09:31.280
the agencies, the FBI, the Department of Justice, you name it, who've been fighting all the way?
00:09:36.280
Yeah. I mean, that's a great question. Hopefully, we'll be able to answer that very soon. Once it goes
00:09:43.400
to impeachment, then it'll leave my committee and go to the judiciary. Now, I have impeachment inquiry,
00:09:49.580
and that's about as much as I can have being the Oversight Committee. But because of the impeachment
00:09:55.660
inquiry, you know, we subpoenaed the personal bank records of Jim Biden, and we were prepared to go
00:10:02.440
to court. We just, because the lawyers had said we would go to court, that they weren't going to
00:10:08.420
hand him over. But that, for whatever reason, and I think it's because we built a case that would win
00:10:13.160
in court, we got those personal bank records. And when we got the personal bank records, Lou,
00:10:17.940
that's when we found the direct payments to Joe Biden. So I always suspected that when we would
00:10:24.880
show those eras from China to the different shell companies to the Biden family members, I always
00:10:29.700
felt like there was one more era that we didn't know because we didn't have the personal bank records.
00:10:35.520
And that last era was to Joe Biden, and that's what we found.
00:10:38.620
And at this point, how soon do you believe you will subpoena Hunter Biden for those records for
00:10:49.180
all that you need to learn from him? Well, we've subpoenaed his bank records, and we've gotten
00:10:56.920
almost all the bank records in. And during the process of giving us more, it's been a long process
00:11:04.060
because, Lou, he has so many bank accounts. He would have one shell company with a dozen
00:11:09.020
bank accounts, which shows you're a business guy, Lou. I grew up watching you on CNN and other
00:11:15.240
business shows. This isn't a legitimate business. This is a scam. They had different accounts.
00:11:23.560
They laundered money. But because we've got these bank accounts in, we're very close to bringing in
00:11:30.940
the Bidens. I would say it's a matter of days before they get served. We needed to have the
00:11:37.400
bank records because now, if we didn't have those bank records, we couldn't say, Jim Biden,
00:11:42.660
what is this $200,000 check to your brother Joe Biden? No one knew about that until we got the
00:11:48.000
bank records. So we built up a case, and I think that we just about got enough bank records to where
00:11:54.380
we can bring them in and ask them specific questions with specific hard evidence in the form of
00:12:00.700
bank statements. We're talking with the chairman of the House Oversight Committee. We're talking
00:12:06.100
with Congressman James Comer, and we're going to continue in one moment. Please stay with us. We'll
00:12:11.020
be right back. We're back. We're talking with House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer.
00:12:21.160
And Mr. Chairman, word comes that Hunter Biden has sued, has actually sued Attorney General Merrick
00:12:29.000
Garland in the case in the IRS lawsuit. This is sort of, to me, breathtaking that this man,
00:12:38.000
knowing all that we do now about him and his business dealings, thanks to you and your committee,
00:12:44.200
I mean, this is a mind boggler that he would do such a thing.
00:12:49.280
The level of arrogance and entitlement by the Biden family knows no bounds. I mean,
00:12:55.440
they believe with all their heart that they're entitled to receive millions of dollars from our
00:13:02.760
adversaries around the world just because they're Biden's. And they don't believe the law applies
00:13:08.120
to them. And why should they, Lou? Look, the IRS whistleblower said they knew that the president's
00:13:13.820
son committed money laundering crimes and tax evasion crimes and wirefrog crimes, and the list goes on and
00:13:20.540
on. But they were told to not go any further, to drop the investigation. And so were the FBI
00:13:28.260
whistleblowers. So were the Department of Justice people, the Scott Brady's, the people that Jordan's
00:13:34.420
been deposing. They were all said they knew, look, it's obvious the crimes they were committed, but they
00:13:39.500
were told they can't touch the Biden. So if you've been treated that way all your life, like Hunter Biden
00:13:46.260
has, then of course you think you are entitled to break the law.
00:13:51.060
Well, in sense of entitlement, there's also a sense of omniscient, all-powerful ability to dictate
00:14:00.860
the narrative as well. And they've done very well at it. The latest edition is Hunter Biden talking
00:14:07.520
about his addiction. And I like to just read a bit of this. His addiction has been weaponized
00:14:13.920
to attack his father, Joe Biden. I mean, this is a perversion of, to me, just unbelievable dimensions.
00:14:25.600
And you know the national left-wing media, the corporate media in this country, is going to run
00:14:32.520
Yeah, that was in Gannett on newspapers like the USA Today and the crappy Gannett papers all over the
00:14:39.660
United States. Gannett should be ashamed of themselves. They have not even written
00:14:43.660
about the two checks that were sent to Joe Biden, the $200,000 check and the $40,000 check. It's not
00:14:49.960
even been in print anywhere, but yet they run an op-ed on poor little Hunter Biden who, you know,
00:14:58.860
who blew $30 million on drugs and prostitutes and expensive hotel rooms and expensive cars. He's had
00:15:06.880
such a difficult life. You know, we should all overlook his little crimes of money laundering,
00:15:13.180
tax evasion, prostitution, drugs, lying on a gun application, wire fraud, securities fraud,
00:15:20.720
just because he had a drug problem, Lou. I mean, shame on Gannett, but I'm not a bit surprised.
00:15:26.720
Well, and the author of the essay, obviously, Hunter Biden himself. So I'm expecting this week,
00:15:33.480
I don't know if you are. I'm expecting Gannett to offer President Donald Trump a thousand words
00:15:40.960
of essay space to present his case against the Marxist-dim conspiracy with the deep state
00:15:49.240
trying to interfere in the 2024 election by hounding him and persecuting him in every quarter.
00:15:56.020
Yeah, yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath. You know, one of the things I read in some publication today
00:16:01.360
that was talked about in one of Trump's trials yesterday was that they were accusing him of
00:16:08.960
getting a very favorable loan. Lou, we found at least $5 million in loans to the Bidens that they
00:16:21.140
never paid a penny of interest or even the principal back. That's a pretty favorable loan,
00:16:27.060
if you ask me, as someone who was involved in banking for a long time. You know, and they're
00:16:31.900
like, well, that interest rate, just that was awful good that Donald Trump got. He paid his loans back.
00:16:37.740
He paid it back with interest. The Bidens took money and they said that it was loans. They never
00:16:43.780
paid taxes on it, never paid any interest on it. And it's a joke. The joke is how they treat
00:16:49.300
the Bidens versus Trump. And the National Archives of all agencies. You can't imagine corruption
00:16:58.420
that's focused on the National Archives. 82,000 emails, pages of documents, and it goes on,
00:17:11.760
all with their three pseudonyms that Joe Biden used as Vice President of the United States.
00:17:16.520
This is crazy. And if this were Richard Nixon, I mean, they never brought in evidence to this
00:17:25.960
level against him, for crying out loud. That's exactly right. And, you know, with Nixon and
00:17:32.280
Watergate, you had a curious media. You had reporters out there that were digging and trying to work with
00:17:40.320
congressional investigators. We don't have that now. It's just the congressional investigators. We don't
00:17:44.600
have any reporters, you know, like with the Washington Post or New York Times or the print media that
00:17:50.600
actually are supposed to do this type of reporting. And I mean, it's just, it's amazing that the media,
00:18:00.840
the way they cover Donald Trump versus Joe Biden, but with the National Archives, 82,000 emails in fake
00:18:08.400
names. What was Joe Biden hiding, right? That's the first question. The second question with respect to
00:18:12.900
the National Archives, they've turned over 14 emails. And when they turned over the 14 out of 82,000,
00:18:21.140
they, out of 82,000, I've asked for all 82,000, Lou, they've given me 14, not 14,000, 14. And when they
00:18:29.940
did it, they sent it to Politico and MSNBC at the same time. And they wrote a story making fun of me
00:18:36.920
saying, oh, he wants these emails. And they're, they're just about, you know, it's junk mail and
00:18:41.420
spam and stuff like that. I mean, the fact that the National Archives was caught working with the
00:18:48.500
media to create a narrative, as you said, it should be disturbing because the National Archives, I mean,
00:18:54.360
who would have thought they were part of the deep state too, but they are.
00:18:57.280
They absolutely are. And they have, the extraordinary, to me, the, I think the most
00:19:04.860
extraordinary thing that I'm witnessing here, again, because of your investigation and the help
00:19:10.660
of some of the other committees, we're looking at a government that is protecting a political
00:19:15.900
office holder. First, because of his politics, not because of the office. This is a protection
00:19:24.700
racket run by corrupt deep state agencies. And it's pervasive. I can't think of an agency that
00:19:33.260
isn't corrupt and covering up wherever they've come into contact with Biden. I mean, that cover
00:19:39.760
up, I'm saying this to you, it looks like it's 10 feet deep. Yeah. No, there's no question. Almost
00:19:47.040
every agency in Washington, D.C. has been infiltrated by liberal activists. And these are the career
00:19:52.800
employees. And whoever the next president is, Lou, they're going to have to go in there and they're
00:19:57.260
not just going to, you know, they're obviously going to put their people in, in the, in the
00:20:00.980
political appointees, but they've got to go after the top level of career employees. And you've seen
00:20:06.660
that at the Department of Justice with Leslie Wolf, who wasn't appointed U.S. Attorney. She's a career
00:20:11.340
U.S. Attorney. She's the one that stopped all of these investigations of the Biden. So, you know,
00:20:18.040
it's, it's widespread and we've got to, we've got to have fundamental reform with these government
00:20:25.120
employees, these career employees. It has to start with a, with a new president and, and with a plan
00:20:31.100
going in on day one, how to get rid of these deep state actors. We're talking with Congressman James
00:20:36.880
Comer, chairman of the House Oversight Committee. We're coming right back after these quick moments.
00:20:48.040
We're back now talking with Chairman James Comer, the House Oversight Committee.
00:20:54.340
Congressman, there seems to be so much here. There seems to be, at least intuitively,
00:21:02.240
a pattern to the behavior of the Bidens and their relationships with various foreign operators,
00:21:08.460
various countries and companies and oligarchs. What is, what are the patterns that you've detected
00:21:17.840
and expect to see reconfirmed again? Yeah. Well, the pattern is that the Bidens would locate
00:21:25.740
people, bad people in bad countries that needed help. They needed help either because they were
00:21:32.420
being investigated for fraud in their own country. They needed help because they were facing sanctions.
00:21:38.200
They needed help because they were wanting to invest in the United States and there were barriers
00:21:43.040
to entry. But whatever the reason, they were bad people in bad countries. They would meet Joe Biden
00:21:50.360
through his son. And then his son would take it. You know, there's like Joe Biden was sending a signal.
00:21:56.120
OK, this is my son or my brother. You deal with him. You're dealing with me. Then then he would disappear.
00:22:02.500
So he could say plausible deniability and all that. Then the family would start getting payments
00:22:07.920
through shell companies from these foreign nationals. And, you know, sometimes they they got what they
00:22:14.740
wanted. In the case of Burisma, they got the prosecutor fired. We know we know that Joe Biden did that.
00:22:20.820
In other cases, like Romania, they paid a bunch of money and it looks like the Bidens hooked them.
00:22:26.360
In the case with the AmeriCorps health care company in Florida, where Jim Biden said,
00:22:31.200
if you pay me six hundred thousand dollars, my brother, through his contacts in the Middle East,
00:22:36.000
we'll get you all the capital you want. They paid him six hundred thousand dollars.
00:22:39.820
And Joe Biden and Jim Biden gave him the middle finger. He took their money and ran.
00:22:43.700
And now they're bankrupt. So, you know, the there was an influence peddling scheme
00:22:48.060
where Joe Biden met every single person that sent their family money, including the AmeriCorps
00:22:53.840
health people. And then then the family would start receiving money and they didn't do it,
00:22:59.560
you know, like a paycheck or through one LLC. They would do it through a series of companies
00:23:04.780
so that they could disguise the source of the payment and deceive the federal government in the form of
00:23:12.060
the IRS and not paying taxes. Incredible. That's incredible.
00:23:17.900
And there's some question about why there's no impeachment here. I mean, this is on its face
00:23:25.320
evidence of massive corruption in this White House. I want to raise another issue, and that's how much
00:23:32.440
how much you're concerned about the safety of your your staff, your your members yourself in this,
00:23:39.980
because there are powerful forces that are being deeply disturbed here. And we know for a fact
00:23:46.120
that even a powerful committee like the House Oversight Committee was surveilled by the NSA,
00:23:52.480
the FBI and the Senate intelligence in years previous. Do you believe you're under that kind of
00:24:00.280
surveillance and what countermeasures are available to you? I assume every text I send someone that
00:24:07.300
somebody else is reading it. I mean, we've got a government that especially in the intelligence
00:24:12.420
community that has abused their power. And I have zero confidence in there. I don't think you had
00:24:19.100
mentioned earlier, why does the government do this with the Bidens? I don't think it's because they
00:24:24.120
like the Bidens. And it's certainly not because they have respect for the Biden. I think it's because
00:24:28.800
they fear Donald Trump. And they know if Donald Trump becomes president again, he's going to go in and
00:24:35.540
he's going to spend every ounce of energy he has in trying to drain the swamp and get rid of the deep
00:24:44.000
state. And and Joe Biden is fine. He ain't gonna do anything. And these guys are all about self
00:24:50.800
preservation. So, you know, I do think that that I think that that they're probably watching everything
00:24:58.420
we do. I know that these government agencies work hand in hand with the media to create hit piece
00:25:04.980
stories on on me and my committee all the time. CNN, your old network, Lou, they're working on one
00:25:11.160
right now trying to say that Jim Jordan and I don't get along. We get along great. I mean, we are working
00:25:16.140
together as closely as two people have ever worked on anything in Congress before. But they're always
00:25:21.740
trying to do something. And it's the it's the White House and the Democrat National Committee that sets the
00:25:26.920
narrative along with these deep state actors in these government agencies. It's it's a historic
00:25:33.260
moment. It is, unfortunately, ugly history for this country. And I and we're going to learn more and
00:25:39.620
more. I have to say, as we as we conclude here, I respect and admire you and your committee and all those
00:25:49.260
who are leading these these investigations. The American people are grateful.
00:25:55.640
And without it, we would know none of this. I just want to say thank you and give you the last
00:26:02.780
word here is is our custom on The Great America Show. Your concluding thoughts.
00:26:08.000
Well, thank you, Lou. I'm your biggest fan. I appreciate all the great work you do. And
00:26:13.100
I do think what you said, right, we know all this because we have a Republican majority,
00:26:18.920
because I have subpoena power, because we've been able to just relentlessly through subpoena power,
00:26:25.600
get the facts and present them to the American people in a transparent way. Now we're trying to
00:26:30.260
hold people accountable. And it's very difficult when you've got a Democrat Senate that does not want
00:26:36.320
to impeach and a and a attorney general that has led the cover up. But we're not going to stop.
00:26:44.720
You know, Jim Jordan and I talked yesterday. We want to and Mike Johnson as well. We want to hold
00:26:50.680
all of these bad actors accountable. And that includes the Biden family.
00:26:55.300
Excellent. James Comer. Thank you very much for being with us. We appreciate it so much. God bless you.
00:27:00.660
Thank you. Thanks, everybody, for being with us here today. Our guests tomorrow on The Great
00:27:05.200
America Show will be Congresswoman Claudia Tenney. We'll take up what Congress is doing to ensure
00:27:10.220
the 2024 election isn't rigged. Please join us for that tomorrow and join us each and every day.
00:27:16.880
Thanks, everybody. God bless you. And may God bless America.
