00:01:14.920 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Thanks for being here. Great

00:01:22.960 to have you with us. Marxist Dems Special Counsel Jack Smith caught once again in controversy

00:01:28.820 and abuse of power. The junkyard Jackal Smith and Obama-appointed Judge Beryl Howell are trying

00:01:36.600 now to cover up the fact they both suggested President Trump was a flight risk. That's right,

00:01:42.280 a flight risk trying to justify the non-disclosure order when President Trump's Twitter account was

00:01:49.480 illegally searched earlier this year. That according to newly released court documents.

00:01:55.580 Smith admitted he included inaccurate information, as he put it, when he asked Judge Beryl Howell for a

00:02:02.360 secret search warrant for Trump's Twitter account. Alon Musk's Twitter was fined $350,000

00:02:09.740 because it delayed producing the subpoenaed records. Twitter argued the non-disclosure order violated

00:02:17.340 Donald Trump's First Amendment rights. Biden's corrupt Justice Department, of course, working in great

00:02:23.600 secrecy, obtained a non-disclosure order that prohibited Twitter from informing Trump about the

00:02:30.660 subpoena. Can you imagine that? Smith lying to the court to keep it secret by saying the former

00:02:37.560 president was a flight risk for crying out loud. To be clear, Jack Smith is evil and he is doing evil

00:02:45.980 and he is working with federal judges every bit as awful as he is. President Biden, to be correct the

00:02:54.300 puppet president Joe Biden, was in Pueblo, Colorado this week touring the largest wind tower manufacturer

00:03:01.220 in the world. Of course, pushing his green energy nonsense. And boy, was he having some really bad

00:03:07.960 cognitive moments. A hard time reading off teleprompter. No one had a clue what he meant to say.

00:03:14.740 Let's take a listen now to a few of Biden's greatest gaffes of the week. As you listen, remember,

00:03:21.640 there are all sorts of Marxist Dems who are pretending that this man is actually the president of the United

00:03:28.580 States actually in charge and not merely the puppet he really is. Here in Colorado, the wind turbine

00:03:36.660 manufacturing Vistas is investing $40 million to expand his factory and hire an additional 1,000

00:03:45.700 employees. Solar manufacturer Meyer Berger is building a new solar cell factory just down the road in

00:03:53.480 Colorado Springs. When I took office, since then, the first two years, we created over 14 million

00:04:01.260 brand new jobs, good paying jobs. By the way, I cut the federal deficit of over $7 billion while doing

00:04:09.560 all this. Instead of cutting them, it's like Congressman Trump and Beau want to do. I've said this and I've said

00:04:17.660 this to Deng Xiaoping and the Himalayas and I've said this to every world leader. It's never, never,

00:04:25.540 never been a good bet to bet against the American people. Never, never, never. Just a quick fact

00:04:32.400 check on a few of those. Biden did not cut the federal deficit by $7 billion. The federal budget is

00:04:40.700 right at $7 trillion though, but we don't know if there's any correlation. And no, Biden didn't create

00:04:46.980 more than 14 million new jobs. And no, President Donald Trump is not a congressman. And lastly,

00:04:54.160 we think Biden was trying to say Xi Jinping. What he said was Deng Xiaoping, who died in 1997.

00:05:03.720 He's considered the architect of modern China. Perhaps Biden's best gaffe of the week though came

00:05:09.240 on a hot mic when he was meeting with factory workers where he told one of the gentlemen,

00:05:14.380 his Marines have a code that could blow up the world. Here he is.

00:05:20.560 This is Nick.

00:05:21.640 Hey, Nick. This is Nick.

00:05:23.800 How are you, buddy?

00:05:25.300 Now look, my Marine carries that and has a code to blow up the world.

00:05:31.120 That doesn't, this is not nuclear weapons, is it?

00:05:34.640 All right, okay.

00:05:35.220 Remarkably, those factory workers didn't seem too alarmed as he was muttering such nonsense.

00:05:44.640 I wish I could tell you all of these clips didn't really happen, that this is all a joke,

00:05:49.360 but it's not. This is our reality. This man is the leader of the free world, or at least the puppet,

00:05:55.940 the puppet figurehead, the puppet figurehead that the national news media pretends is actually the

00:06:02.900 president, run by God knows who. Our guest today is James Comer. He is the chairman of the House

00:06:09.900 Oversight Committee and a great American. Mr. Chairman, great to have you with us. And this is

00:06:15.260 once again an action-packed week for you and your committee. You've discovered so much evidence

00:06:20.960 against President Biden and his family over the past year. Now you have an email from a bank

00:06:27.440 investigator, a bank money laundering investigator, who years ago raised alarms about Biden money

00:06:35.360 laundering. If you would, please give us a sense of its importance and your judgment.

00:06:41.620 Well, it's a very significant email, Lou, because to me, that's a snapshot of the thought process

00:06:46.920 that a bank would use before they issued a suspicious activity report, which is a major

00:06:52.720 bank violation that's filed with Treasury when a bank notifies the Treasury cabinet that they suspect

00:06:58.600 their customer has committed a crime. Remember, the Bidens have over 170 suspicious activity reports,

00:07:06.920 which is probably more than any family in America. And the bank examiner identified several red flags.

00:07:16.540 First of all, you had a $5 million wire from China into a pretty much dormant checking account.

00:07:24.440 The company that owned the checking account had no purpose, which meant it was a shell company. It

00:07:30.260 was a fake company. That's what the examiners say. It was a shell company that suddenly gets a $5

00:07:37.000 million wire. The fact that the owner of the company was a politically exposed person, which I'm a

00:07:44.740 politically exposed. Anyone that's high up in politics would be a politically exposed person.

00:07:49.200 And that politically exposed person was a term put in, I believe, when Dodd-Frank passed to make

00:07:54.220 sure that politicians don't get special interest rates or special deals. So you, for the bank examiners,

00:08:00.340 they look at politically exposed people to make sure the bank's not giving them a sweetheart deal or

00:08:04.360 whatever. But with this politically exposed person, you get $5 million wire. You already got a shell

00:08:10.740 company. And they looked at reports from Biden, who is the politically exposed person, and realized

00:08:18.700 that through his statements that his ex-wife made, he had a drug problem and he was in financial

00:08:23.520 trouble. They also knew that China was trying to buy influence with American politicians through

00:08:29.580 vulnerable children. And they felt like this could be a national security threat, that the Bidens could be 0.88

00:08:35.780 involved in a bribery scheme. So you have bribery, you have money laundering, you have tax evasion. The list goes on

00:08:42.560 and on. There's so much information in that one paragraph of that email. And again, that is a conversation

00:08:49.900 between the top money laundering examiner for one of the nation's biggest banks, and his superior about the

00:09:00.900 concern that they have with their client. And to get a sense of this, to have that examiner,

00:09:11.040 that investigator, providing some oversight, if you will, of what's going on to make these statements,

00:09:19.420 and for those statements to be ignored, and not and no action to be taken. You talked about being

00:09:26.820 politically exposed. At that moment, that big old bank is politically exposed, and it's criminally

00:09:34.360 exposed, is it not? It is. And the banks know that. The banks take this very seriously, because as you

00:09:40.280 know, Lou, the bank examiners come in. Anytime the bank files a suspicious activity report, that invites

00:09:46.240 the examiners to come in. Banks don't want to file these, despite what the Washington Post will try to

00:09:51.560 make you believe, that everybody gets a suspicious activity report. They try to, I think they get a

00:09:56.940 suspicious activity report confused with an overdraft fee. Right. No, banks don't want to file these

00:10:02.500 because it invites examiners to come in. If you're a politically exposed person, and you get a suspicious

00:10:07.660 activity report, the examiners will fly from whatever city they live to that bank to go in there to

00:10:15.160 immediately examine that. So normally, and I've said this before, banks don't file suspicious

00:10:21.600 activity reports against prominent clients without communicating with them first. And it looks to me

00:10:27.440 like that examiner asked what that $5 million wire was, right? Because he said that they suggested,

00:10:37.560 the Biden suggested it was a loan. And again, look, everything that we've come up with, they said is

00:10:43.560 a loan. But I have their bank statements. And let me tell you, they've never made hardly any payments

00:10:49.300 on any of these loans. And that $5 million, if that were a loan, if they listed that as a loan,

00:10:55.120 that puts them at over $13 million in loans that the Biden family has taken, that just Hunter and

00:11:04.960 Jim Biden have taken. $13 million in loans. And they don't have, I bet their net worth isn't a million

00:11:11.800 dollars. And you're a banker, you're a financial guy, you know, that's not possible. And what it

00:11:20.420 looks like is tax evasion here. Because if you claim something as a loan, you don't have to report

00:11:27.700 it on your taxes. So the bank examiners take this stuff very seriously. And when Biden said it was a

00:11:35.580 loan, he did what I said when Joe Biden claimed those two checks, one for $200,000, one for $40,000,

00:11:41.400 that was written to Joe Biden, we've talked about on your show. He said those were loan repayments.

00:11:47.100 And I said, well, provide the documents to prove it was a loan repayment. He couldn't do that

00:11:51.080 because it wasn't a loan. So the bank examiner said, oh, okay, if that's a $5 million loan,

00:11:56.160 we need the bank documents, or we need the loan documents for the bank examiners.

00:12:02.160 Because the bank examiners will see this, and they will say, if it's a loan, we need the loan

00:12:07.880 documents to prove it. They could not produce loan documents, because it was not a loan.

00:12:14.120 And the suspicious, the SARS, all of them, coming down, you've got all of the questions by the

00:12:24.080 examiner, providing oversight, and the examiners following up on the books of the bank.

00:12:32.060 At this point, you've got, it seems to me, commendable evidence of highly irregular and,

00:12:43.040 frankly, on its face, illegal activity. And the activity extends to the bank if they didn't do

00:12:50.740 something about it in terms of their examiners. So this is getting, I would think that there's some

00:12:58.660 people getting a little tight-throated about it now, whether they're in banking or whether they're

00:13:03.660 in the Biden family. Right. And, you know, the fact that the Bidens had 170 suspicious activity

00:13:10.840 reports, and then they were subject of another at least 50, that's 220 suspicious activity report,

00:13:19.780 basically by one person, filed with the Treasury cabinet. But yet, Joe Biden wants to act like he

00:13:29.500 didn't know. He didn't, no one at Treasury ever said, Mr. President, your son has 220 major bank

00:13:36.280 violations. Yeah. That's hard to believe. But then another thing, the last thing I want to make about

00:13:42.060 that $500,000 wire, Lou, is $40,000 of that ended up in Joe Biden's bank account. That $40,000 check

00:13:50.600 from Joe Biden came from that $5 million wire. We did it in the last video I produced. $5 million

00:14:00.680 came from China. They wired $400,000 to a Wasco, which was supposed to be the deal Joe Biden was

00:14:07.640 10% owner of. And then Joe gets 10% of that $400,000, which is $40,000. That's where Joe Biden

00:14:17.100 plays into all this. That $5 million wire that they claimed was a loan to the bank examiner

00:14:22.320 is in fact $40,000 of Joe Biden's income that he claimed was a loan as well.

00:14:32.400 So you have all of this money. You have all of these transactions. You have all of these shell

00:14:41.040 companies. It looks like a video game when you chart it out. To what purpose? To what end?

00:14:51.140 Because I go back to this. I've been following you and your investigation since

00:14:55.880 Janet Yellen wouldn't let you have those SARS. The Treasury Secretary of the United States

00:15:03.520 prevented the House Oversight Committee chairman from having those SARs. That was a politically

00:15:10.840 exposed person too, again, and as unethical as it could possibly be. Janet Yellen, former Federal

00:15:19.020 Reserve chairman, economist, and she is up to her ear balls in political dirty tricks and trying to 1.00

00:15:28.840 block the United States Congress as well. Yeah, look, the chairman of the Oversight Committee

00:15:36.760 has never been blocked from Treasury before from getting a Suspicious Act report. She blocked us for

00:15:42.520 several months, but to her credit, she finally let us in. But in the beginning when she blocked us,

00:15:47.260 Lou, she's like, I don't understand why you all would want to see these. Like, there's really

00:15:51.120 nothing to see here. And it's the same thing that happened when I called Christopher Wray

00:15:56.140 asking about the 1023 form that alleged Joe Biden took a bribe in Ukraine. He tried to act like,

00:16:03.960 oh, I don't know what you're talking about. There's no 1023 form about Joe Biden. Then when he found

00:16:09.240 out I actually had a copy that someone had snuck out to me, then he changed his tune, kind of like

00:16:14.880 Janet Yellen. Yeah, it's extraordinary. We're talking with the chairman of the House Oversight

00:16:20.040 Committee, Congressman James Comer. We're going to, as soon as we take a quick break here,

00:16:26.780 we're going to take up what looks like absolute certain evidence of President Biden's involvement

00:16:33.820 in his son's business dealings. Physical content evidence, it's called, I believe.

00:16:40.800 The Democrats have been asking for it. Well, on the other side of this commercial break,

00:16:45.960 it'll be your day. We're coming right back with Congressman James Comer.

00:16:55.660 We're back. We're talking with Congressman James Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight

00:17:00.020 Committee. And I do a radio show on WABC each Sunday, and we have call-ins. And I enjoy those call-ins

00:17:10.080 and the questions. But occasionally, we get a call from someone saying, you know, there's

00:17:14.380 no direct link between Joe Biden and all of this highly suspicious activity. There are

00:17:22.700 Republicans who actually even call in to say that same thing. Sounds like you've got that

00:17:28.340 connection right now.

00:17:30.380 Yeah, I think we've had it for a long time, Lou, but we get a little bit more every day.

00:17:34.460 Remember, $40,000 of that $5 million wire from China that the Bidens can't explain what they

00:17:42.460 did to get it, that ended up in Joe Biden's back pocket. That's a fact. Joe Biden said he

00:17:49.500 never communicated with his son about his business dealings. Joe Biden said there was an absolute

00:17:54.440 wall between the government and his family's financial schemes. What we found was emails between

00:18:02.520 the White House and the Biden business associates and schemes, but they were in pseudonyms. So Joe

00:18:10.920 Biden was using a fake name on his government email to communicate back and forth with not just his

00:18:17.880 son, but his son's shady business associates about things the government had planned in those countries

00:18:26.300 where they were getting the millions and millions of dollars. Joe Biden said he never met any of the

00:18:31.080 people that his family received money from. We've proven he met with them all, Lou, every one of

00:18:38.400 them. In fact, some of them he had dinner with at Cafe Milano. So we've proven that Joe Biden's gotten

00:18:46.160 money from the deal. We've proven that Joe Biden met with all these people, even the AmeriCorps health

00:18:52.440 people where he got his $200,000 from. The company in Florida, the healthcare company that failed,

00:18:59.080 he actually met with them with his brother before his brother got the $600,000 loan from them that he

00:19:06.600 never paid back. I mean, Joe Biden was involved in everything. And at the end of the day, Lou,

00:19:13.840 does anyone with any common sense believe that these people were just giving the Biden family millions and

00:19:20.920 millions of dollars because they liked Hunter Biden? No, they were doing this for access to Joe Biden.

00:19:28.820 And that's what Devin Archer said in the transcribed interview we had with him. He said the Bidens were

00:19:34.540 selling the brand and Joe Biden was the brand. And the brand was doing things and getting paid for

00:19:43.620 the for the influence that attends that brand. Let's let's go to the issue here. And that is the impeachment

00:19:54.840 inquiry. With all the evidence you have, with all that is wrong with this picture on its face, an impeachment

00:20:04.460 from the House is not a jury trial. It is a charge, is it not? That's right. It seems to me that and I'm

00:20:16.520 going to say this, perhaps I don't mean it unkindly, but the new speaker shouldn't have any reason to

00:20:22.180 hesitate in moving ahead with that, that inquiry and concluding it with an impeachment of President Joe

00:20:31.500 Biden. Am I wrong? No, you're, you're absolutely right. And I'll, I'll say this. He, he does not

00:20:38.280 have any hesitation. The, the problem has always been getting, getting the 217, 218, whatever we need

00:20:48.080 votes. As you know, our conference has been broken for, for many months now, and there are a lot of hard

00:20:55.420 feelings. But I think the message that I'm giving to our conference and Jim Jordan and I are going to

00:21:01.380 present this week to the conference where we are, and we're going to ask for a vote on the floor to,

00:21:11.460 to certify the impeachment inquiry, because that's what you, that's what some people think needs to

00:21:20.800 happen. It depends on who you ask. And you know, the, the, as Republicans, we talk about

00:21:28.080 holding bad actors in the government accountable for wrongdoing. I mean, Joe Biden has lied to the

00:21:34.900 American people over and over and over about his knowledge and involvement in his family's business

00:21:39.620 dealings. 65% of Americans believe that according to every liberal poll in America. So it's probably

00:21:46.420 more like 75%. And that's with no one in the mainstream media covering this, or when they do,

00:21:52.900 they say no to evidence. So, you know, our conference is going to have to get together.

00:21:58.380 And again, it, you know, we, you know, six or seven members that, that, you know, are always a little

00:22:04.420 squishy. And we're going to say, look, we've got to do everything possible to give the oversight

00:22:11.760 committee, the judiciary committee, every power they can have to get documentation. The reason

00:22:17.920 at the very least, our conference should vote to make a impeachment inquiry, a official or whatever

00:22:25.980 the certified is the fact that this administration refuses to turn over documents. This administration

00:22:34.040 refuses to come and be deposed or to testify. And at the end of the day, why would, why would the

00:22:43.360 White House or the National Archives not turn over the tens of thousands of pseudonym email? Why would

00:22:51.140 the National Archives not tell us where any of those classified documents that Joe Biden mishandled,

00:22:58.520 were any of them related to Ukraine, Russia, or China? That's all we want to know. You don't have to tell us.

00:23:04.620 What they were, I mean, we would prefer you tell us what they are, but were they involved in any of

00:23:09.520 these countries? They know we're investigating this family for bribery, for receiving tens of

00:23:16.160 millions of dollars from our enemies around the world. And they know that the families never said

00:23:21.100 what they did to receive the money. Were they sending classified documents to them? We need to know

00:23:27.100 these things. Every American deserves the truth. And the only reason we don't have more answers to

00:23:33.340 these questions, though, is because of the obstruction from this White House and this

00:23:37.520 administration. The banks are working with us. Everyone in the private sector that we've subpoenaed

00:23:42.440 for information has either provided it or in the process of providing it. The one obstacle,

00:23:47.800 and it's a big one, has been the government, the FBI, the DOJ, the IRS, the National Archives, the White House.

00:23:56.600 Those are the obstacles to this investigation. And that's what we need to do. And Mike Johnson's all

00:24:03.920 in favor of that. Hopefully, we'll get that vote through next week.

00:24:08.100 You know, you talked about those obstacles. It sounds like straight up obstruction of Congress.

00:24:14.020 And on that basis alone, an impeachment would be in order. It is hard, I think, for a lot of people.

00:24:22.440 You talk about 65 to 75 percent of Americans understand what's going on here. They look at the

00:24:27.200 evidence. They see what is real and what is just simply a defensive blather on the part of a, you

00:24:33.680 know, I think you described their spokesman there at the White House one time. Well, I'm not going to

00:24:38.380 repeat that, but you can. You can. But I thought it was accurate. I thought you were highly accurate.

00:24:45.080 Accurate. And to look at this and see the hesitation on the part of, you know, a few appropriators,

00:24:54.420 some, you know, broken hearts, apparently. We're talking about the existential decisions that will

00:25:02.640 be taken now for this republic. This is not a time for the cowardly defenses of their little hurt

00:25:13.220 feelings. I mean, we're talking about the future of this republic. And I can't imagine for the life of

00:25:20.660 me why anyone would play games in your conference with the conclusion of this impeachment inquiry,

00:25:27.540 because the nation depends on the outcome. That's right. And let me be clear, 98 percent

00:25:34.840 of our conference strongly supports impeachment inquiry. And I would say it's about the same

00:25:40.360 percentage on impeachment. The problem is we have to have 99.5 percent to move, right? 99.6 percent,

00:25:49.580 I guess, to move forward. And we're working to try to get that. It shouldn't be this difficult.

00:25:55.680 It shouldn't be this difficult, Lou, to make cuts to the federal budget. But it has been,

00:26:01.060 unfortunately. So again, I know people look back and they say, oh, my gosh, why haven't Congress cut

00:26:07.560 more spending? At the end of the day, 95 percent of our conference wants to make some pretty

00:26:13.280 significant cuts. We've got about 5 percent for whatever reason that don't. And, you know,

00:26:18.460 there's no margin for error when you when you can only lose two votes. I mean, the odds are that

00:26:25.540 Santos is probably going to be expelled from Congress, which the fact that Congress will expel

00:26:31.000 Santos, but they won't expel Mayorkas or Biden. That's not anything that I can understand very

00:26:42.020 clearly. But at the end of the day, I think that I think our conference is going to get there only

00:26:46.620 because we've proven so much evidence and the fact that this administration is obstructing Don

00:26:51.640 Bacon. He's one of the more moderate members, someone I respect. He was, I believe, a general

00:26:57.600 in the in the Air Force. Brigadier general. Brigadier general. And he said to CNN, they asked him if he

00:27:06.540 would support impeachment inquiry. I know they asked him that because he thought he would say no. And

00:27:09.840 he said, yeah. He said that they've proven a lot of evidence. You know, there's some things we need

00:27:14.620 to find out about. And he said, and this administration's not cooperating. They're obstructing.

00:27:19.600 So, yeah, I'm going to vote for it. And the CNN anchor about faded, Luke. So, you know, that's that's a

00:27:25.720 good sign. I think we're getting there. But it's been hard. I mean, it's been hard to get there or

00:27:30.260 we'd have probably been a little further along. But, you know, the the longer this investigation

00:27:35.860 lasts, the more evidence we find. We found that email that we released that showed what the bank

00:27:43.640 thought about all the crimes the Biden's were committed. That that's a good piece of evidence

00:27:47.860 there. Well, evidence aplenty. And we're going to take up the politics aplenty when we continue

00:27:54.340 with Congressman James Comer, chairman of the House Oversight Committee. Stay with us.

00:28:05.500 We're back with the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer. Congressman,

00:28:10.300 let's turn to Hunter Biden, the subpoenas that have been put forward and your judgment about the

00:28:16.580 responses that you've received. Yeah, well, I think everyone we've subpoenaed has responded

00:28:24.300 in some form or fashion. Usually what happens or always what happens when when someone receives

00:28:30.180 a subpoena from Congress, they hire an attorney and the attorney contacts our staff attorney on

00:28:36.780 oversight. So they try to negotiate a time and the parameters, whether it's going to be a deposition,

00:28:43.440 whether it's going to be a transcribed interview, what questions can be asked, what questions can't

00:28:48.900 be asked, how long will the deposition last, things like that. So every single person that we've

00:28:54.860 actually subpoenaed in this last round, which is around 10, they have all we've heard from their

00:29:01.120 attorneys and they're we're we're waiting back. But, you know, you just you wonder if Abby Lowell and

00:29:07.800 the big the big attorney isn't telling them all to stand down or whatever. But, you know, at the end of the

00:29:14.080 day, if they don't comply with our subpoenas, then I am confident that we will be able to hold

00:29:20.460 them in contempt because our members of Congress expect people to comply with our congressional

00:29:27.100 subpoenas from my committee because we've done this the right way. We've checked every box. We

00:29:32.520 dotted every I and crossed every T to get to this point. And you mentioned Abby Lowell, the attorney

00:29:39.720 for Hunter Biden. His response to the committee sounded extraordinary to me, extraordinarily arrogant,

00:29:50.420 suggesting he would set the terms for what is a standard congressional procedure, which is a private

00:29:58.800 transcribed interview before going to public testimony. Is that not correct?

00:30:05.100 That is correct. And what they try to do is work with the media to spin a narrative like, oh,

00:30:09.420 they were talking about a closed door deposition. That's how depositions are conducted. That's how

00:30:14.480 Adam Schiff did the both Trump impeachments. That's how the January 6th committee operates.

00:30:20.660 You do depositions, then you have the hearing. Someone said, oh, we want to have a hearing like

00:30:25.140 the January 6th committee. Well, they did depositions and then they taped them and then they broadcast them

00:30:31.060 in a production. You know, they didn't have very many witnesses in the January 6th committee.

00:30:35.620 They played clips from their depositions. The difference in a deposition in a hearing, Lou,

00:30:41.420 in a hearing, you go five minutes back and forth, 25 members, five minutes back and forth.

00:30:47.000 You might get 35, maybe 40 questions in on our side to Hunter Biden. In the deposition, we could get

00:30:53.860 four to 600 questions in. We have a lot of questions, Lou. There are a lot of shell companies,

00:31:00.440 a lot of wire transfers from our enemies around the world, a lot of Bidens who benefited from 0.61

00:31:06.580 these. You can't get that in in a committee hearing. So just because Hunter Biden got special

00:31:13.160 treatment from the Department of Justice, from the IRS, from the FBI, that doesn't mean he's going to

00:31:20.260 get special treatment from Congress. We set the rules. We're not doing anything any differently than

00:31:27.460 any other investigation in the history of America. We have built up the evidence. Now we're in the

00:31:35.340 deposition phase, which signals you're at the end of the investigation, and then we'll issue our report.

00:31:42.680 But the deposition phase is an obvious piece of the puzzle. I mean, why would you spend nine months

00:31:49.300 investigating? We have 20,000 plus pages of documents. Those are a lot of questions that we need to ask

00:31:57.000 to be able to conclude the outcome of this investigation. So Abby Law is trying to create 0.70

00:32:07.240 a false narrative. Like they said, remember, they said, oh, the laptop's not real. It's Russian

00:32:11.460 disinformation. And then when the stuff came out on Brisbane, oh, that's not true. That was all Rudy

00:32:16.160 Giuliani. You know, they try to create these false narratives. Now they're saying, well, he's wanting to do

00:32:21.020 a closed door deposition. I've never heard of such. I mean, they're just, they're just liars. And look,

00:32:25.540 Abby Law, everybody's scared to death of Abby Law. He's representing Menendez too. Okay. He's

00:32:32.240 representing Menendez. The guy they caught for the umpteenth time taking bribes from, from foreign 0.88

00:32:39.700 actors. They just pulled a bunch of gold bars out of his refrigerator or something a couple of weeks

00:32:44.740 ago. Abby Law got him off the first time. Abby Law is representing him again. We do these depositions.

00:32:50.200 Abby Law can sit between both his clients. He can have Menendez on this side and Hunter

00:32:55.500 Biden on this side. And they can talk about how innocent they are in this influence peddling.

00:33:00.060 They'll get their public hearing. I want a public hearing after we do the depositions.

00:33:05.640 Well, and that public hearing could be, I think, certainly revelatory to the public. I also think,

00:33:13.220 you know, it'd be lovely to see those depositions. Will you make those depositions public as well?

00:33:18.080 Yeah, absolutely. 100%. That's, that's what is so offensive about what the, the media is trying to

00:33:26.500 spin on behalf of the Biden legal team that, oh, these are closed door. No one will ever know.

00:33:32.620 Everything we've done in this committee has been transparent. I would argue this is the most

00:33:36.820 transparent congressional investigation in history. We've produced four bank memorandums.

00:33:42.220 When I say they had a shell company, I list the shell company. When I say they got a wire from,

00:33:47.700 from China, we list the wire from the bank. We have everything that we've said, we've produced

00:33:53.720 evidence. This isn't Adam Schiff saying, oh, there's a Steele dossier. Trust me, it's bad. I mean,

00:34:01.140 that's what the Democrats have always done. We have produced evidence with everything, with everything.

00:34:07.220 Again, we do these depositions, we will release the transcripts. The only time since I've been

00:34:13.480 sure of this committee, a transcript hasn't been released is if it pertained to classified

00:34:17.460 information. So yes, everyone in America will know exactly what is said in this deposition. If you

00:34:25.460 call, it's written in the transcript. So they will know, and we will continue to be very transparent.

00:34:32.400 Well, I've got to answer you a question because it occurs to me that with all of the pattern of

00:34:39.800 questionable dealings, the illegal dealings, money laundering, shell companies, everything,

00:34:49.040 have you correlated at any point when the seemingly illegal activity, the checks stopped,

00:34:59.020 the banks suddenly weren't getting quite the same amount of money. Is there that point that you've

00:35:07.680 correlated that somehow suddenly the Biden enterprise came to a standstill?

00:35:14.040 Yeah, I think that there were different phases. I think there have been three phases in this

00:35:19.820 scheme with the Bidens, in my opinion. The first phase happened from 2014 to 2018. They're straight

00:35:30.040 up influence peddling and accepting wires through the shell companies and then laundering down to the

00:35:36.340 Biden family members. Then they started changing the way they operated. And now we know from the

00:35:41.620 Irish whistleblower notes that about, you know, end of 2018, the IRS rolls in on them. And like,

00:35:48.920 whoa, I mean, all these suspicious activity reports, all these shell companies, all this money laundering,

00:35:53.960 you know, what are y'all doing? And they knew, they knew the game was over. So then they started going

00:36:00.840 and saying everything was alone. Then you don't have to report alone. Then nobody, then the IRS wouldn't

00:36:07.060 know about it. They started taking in and calling everything alone. Then once Joe Biden became the

00:36:13.740 nominee for president, then something had to change again, right? And it looks to me like

00:36:22.340 the influence peddling is still going on, but it's going on through the sale of artwork. And that's why

00:36:30.260 we brought in the, or we've, we've subpoenaed George Burgess, the art gallery owner, to find out

00:36:38.560 who in the world is buying this art. I wonder if it's not the same people that have been wiring the

00:36:44.840 Biden family members. And, you know, there's a pattern with the people that were sending the

00:36:48.260 Biden's money through these wires. They were all in trouble. They were all in trouble. They were all

00:36:54.060 wanting to do something that couldn't be done. China was wanting to be able to remove the barriers 1.00

00:36:58.740 so they could start taking over different industries. Uh, the Burisma people wanted the 1.00

00:37:04.100 prosecutor fired the Romanian, uh, nationalist. He was in trouble for corruption. He was wanting

00:37:11.580 help. The, the Russian oligarch didn't want to be sanctioned. You know, everybody that sent

00:37:18.900 the Biden's money were in some tour, some type of trouble. The, the healthcare company, they were

00:37:25.700 about to go bankrupt. They needed money, an infusion of cash from the middle East. Everybody 0.88

00:37:30.980 fits a pattern of needing something from the government. And through it all, the Biden family

00:37:39.720 has to be the most protected family ever in the history of the United States, whether it's a secret

00:37:45.520 service covering for a bag of cocaine and the white house, whether it is, uh, refusing to give up

00:37:52.260 visitor logs, uh, the, the FBI and its intervention with the department of justice in an IRS investigation.

00:38:00.180 And the list goes on and on. And nearly every agency has cocooned the Biden's here. Have you ever

00:38:09.060 seen anything like it? No, this is an example of the deep state. And this is a line in the sand for

00:38:16.260 the deep state. I don't think the deep state really cares about Joe Biden. They care about self

00:38:21.860 preservation. And in order for them to continue to exist, they need a weak president who they know

00:38:33.540 is compromised, who they cannot, uh, ever doubt will try to go in and make significant reforms or

00:38:41.060 disrupt the way they operate. Their worst fear in the world, Lou, is that Donald Trump comes back into

00:38:47.860 power and go straight after the deep state actors. So this is a, this is a matter of self-preservation

00:38:55.780 for the Bidens. It has nothing to do with the fact that Joe Biden's a great president or someone they

00:39:00.420 like or respect. This is about self-preservation for the deep state. And one concluding question,

00:39:08.660 if I may, uh, everyone is on pins and needles, uh, to see whether or not this can be, uh, the

00:39:16.740 impeachment inquiry concluded, uh, this year. Do you think it will be this year? I think that, uh,

00:39:23.860 we'll have a vote this year. And I think that, uh, it'll be certified that we have an official

00:39:28.900 impeachment inquiry. Uh, but you know, the depositions will probably last through December and January.

00:39:34.820 So, you know, we're trying to wrap it up. That's why, you know, if the administration will cooperate

00:39:40.260 with us and if our witnesses will come in, uh, and do their depositions, then, then maybe,

00:39:45.780 but more than likely the, the end of January. Well, Mr. Chairman, we always give our guests

00:39:50.820 the last word, uh, your concluding thoughts. And I want to just say, uh, thanks so much for your time

00:39:55.520 today. And thanks for all that you and your committee are doing for the country. Well, thank you, Lou,

00:40:00.180 for, for keeping people informed on this. It's very difficult, uh, to do the right thing to try

00:40:06.980 to provide the American people the truth and transparency when you have so many in the media

00:40:12.900 who are, you know, not only are they not covering this, not only are they not trying to, uh, investigate

00:40:20.420 wrongdoing, they're attacking me and my committee for having the audacity to investigate public

00:40:27.540 corruption at the highest level. So anytime we have, uh, someone like you that has a big following

00:40:32.980 that that's trying to get the truth to the American people, it's, it's very appreciated by,

00:40:37.540 by me and everyone on my committee. Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. Congressman James Comer,

00:40:42.980 chairman of the house oversight committee. God bless you. Thank you, Lou. Thanks everybody for

00:40:48.100 being with us here today. Follow me on Twitter and true social at Lou Dobbs on Facebook and Instagram
