00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and welcome to The Great America Show. Thanks for being
00:00:07.540 with us. Despite all the Marxist-dim attacks on him by the national media, the Marxist-dims
00:00:13.240 and deep state, President Trump's polls are at an all-time high, post-mugshot and post-Republican
00:00:19.720 debate. The latest polling from Coefficient has Trump polling at 58 percent. Fifty-eight
00:00:26.300 percent. Governor Ron DeSantis at a still-distant 13 percent among Republican primary voters.
00:00:34.100 Likewise, the latest morning consult poll has Trump at 58 percent as well and DeSantis at 14 percent.
00:00:42.020 And Trump beating DeSantis in a hypothetical head-to-head 62 to 23 percent. Perhaps the most
00:00:49.680 important number, 74 percent say Trump's indictment is part of the Marxist-dims effort to block
00:00:56.680 President Trump's return to the White House. The Marxists aren't getting away with their lies,
00:01:03.220 folks. Governor DeSantis has been down 30, 40 points or more to President Trump for months now.
00:01:09.960 President Trump took to Truth Social yesterday to call out specifically Fox News for picking
00:01:16.320 such a failed candidate. Fox News and the Wall Street Journal fight me because Murdoch is a
00:01:22.280 globalist. That's right. Rupert Murdoch is a globalist. You don't know that. And I am America
00:01:27.320 first. It's very simple. I put America first. It will always be that way. So get used to it.
00:01:33.040 The sanctimonious, by the way, is done. He was a Murdoch pick, just like Jeb Bush was a Murdoch pick.
00:01:39.380 How did that work out? Just like Hillary Clinton. Murdoch liked Hillary Clinton, crooked Hillary. 0.94
00:01:43.940 And that was another pick of Murdoch. No, we are about America first. And some people don't like
00:01:50.920 that. The Wall Street Journal has totally lost its way. They say anything that happens to come to
00:01:56.420 mind. They pushed the sanctimonious so hard. And now they're looking for somebody else because he's
00:02:01.600 failed. He's fallen like a rock. He's fallen like a very badly injured bird out of the sky.
00:02:07.720 But I just want to thank everybody for the tremendous support you've given me. We're leading in the polls by
00:02:12.500 50 and 60 points. And we're beating Biden by 5, 6, 7, 11. We have a lot of great polls with
00:02:19.140 Biden. The guy can't put two sentences together. How can he win? So thank you all very much.
00:02:26.980 Not only has it been an extraordinary month of polling for President Trump, but also a monumental
00:02:31.740 month for fundraising. Since being mugshotted by the Fulton County Marxists, Trump has brought in 0.87
00:02:38.480 9.4 million dollars in donations, bringing his total fundraising in August to more than 20 million
00:02:45.160 dollars. And in that 20 million in fundraising, President Trump, well, with his true entrepreneurial
00:02:51.420 spirit, selling 36,000 t-shirts, 24,000 coffee mugs, and 8,600 posters, all with his mugshot on each of
00:03:01.300 them. All thanks to Fannie Willis and her creepy Marxist colleagues and local sheriff there in 0.99
00:03:07.320 Fulton County. And while the Soros spawned Marxist DAs and prosecutors continue their persecution of
00:03:14.000 President Trump, Attorney General Merrick Garland is doing all he can to protect the president's drug
00:03:19.840 addict of a son, Hunter Biden, and of course, the president and his crime family. Garland's DOJ this
00:03:26.940 week told House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan that he wouldn't be complying with the
00:03:32.720 subpoenas Jordan sent over regarding the FBI agents involved in the Hunter Biden case.
00:03:38.960 Last week, Jordan subpoenaed FBI Special Agents Tom Sabachansky and Raisha Hawley to compel testimony
00:03:46.980 on political interference and preferential treatment in the Hunter Biden investigation. Garland said the
00:03:54.000 subpoenas couldn't be enforced because Chairman Jordan barred DOJ lawyers at their deposition.
00:04:01.660 Jordan's deposition rule, however, does align with congressional rules. This is just more
00:04:07.160 stonewalling and a cover-up for the Biden crime family from the Attorney General. House Oversight
00:04:14.100 Committee Chairman James Comer is conducting his own investigation into the Biden crime family.
00:04:19.020 He's subpoenaed bank records, email records, and just this week, the records of Air Force Two flights
00:04:24.960 in which Hunter Biden was a passenger on the vice president's aircraft. Comer joined our friend
00:04:31.720 John Solomon just yesterday on Just the News and said Joe Biden was the most corrupt vice president
00:04:37.700 he had ever seen, and he fears it's rolled into his presidency. Comer says he's already seen enough.
00:04:44.060 It's time to start the impeachment. The evidence grows every day that would support impeachment.
00:04:50.600 Many of us in Congress are already there. We've seen enough. But with respect to my role as chairman
00:04:56.860 of the House Oversight Committee, we're in charge of bringing out all the evidence. So there are still
00:05:01.640 more bank records that we want to have access to. We want to make public. Certainly, we want to know
00:05:09.000 about these 5,400 emails with the pseudonyms. We had requested all email correspondence between
00:05:15.320 Joe Biden and his son pertaining to Ukraine. And of course, we didn't get a whole lot back. But now we
00:05:21.360 learn they use pseudonyms and fake names. So we re-requested the information in the pseudonym names.
00:05:26.800 And lo and behold, there's 5,400 emails. Many have been redacted. So we've still got more information
00:05:34.080 to process. We're trying to do it as quickly as possible. But every day, the evidence continues
00:05:40.580 to grow that would support impeachment. I don't think any vice president in the history of America
00:05:46.520 was more corrupt than Joe Biden. And certainly, we're concerned that all the corruption that he
00:05:52.740 benefited from and his family benefited from while he was vice president could have tainted his presidency
00:05:59.240 and made him vulnerable, made our country vulnerable, made him compromised. And that's
00:06:05.860 why we're continuing this investigation. And we're going to try to get all the bank records
00:06:10.160 and all the email correspondence that Joe Biden had pertaining to shady business transactions that
00:06:17.360 his family was involved in with foreign nationals.
00:06:19.800 Joining us now is the man who just spoke with Chairman Comer, John Solomon, founder and editor-in-chief
00:06:25.880 of Just the News. John, great to have you back with us here on The Great America Show.
00:06:30.360 We have a lot to talk about as usual. Let's start with a Hunter Biden investigation. We now know
00:06:35.820 Hunter's business partner, Devin Archer, met with Secretary of State John John Kerry two weeks before
00:06:43.560 the Ukraine prosecutor, Victor Shokin, was fired by the Obama administration. The Biden regime is doing
00:06:50.480 all and everything they can to protect President Obama as well as President Biden. And this scandal
00:06:57.580 has its roots. Everyone should know this, folks, in the Obama presidency.
00:07:02.420 You know, it's funny. I just talked to former Speaker Newt Gingrich, who said that maybe the
00:07:07.120 Republicans are missing the big picture. And I think you captured it just so eloquently there.
00:07:11.460 This was larger than just Joe Biden and Hunter Biden shaking down foreign interests. You had Hillary
00:07:17.160 Clinton doing it with the foundation. This was basically a political machinery, a culture of
00:07:22.560 corruption across the Democratic Party that came up with Barack Obama and the Barack Obama era, which
00:07:29.160 everybody said, oh, one of the most ethical errors. It really wasn't. It wasn't at all. You had Hillary
00:07:34.180 Clinton shaking down the Russians while she was making decisions on Russian nuclear energy policy.
00:07:38.660 You have Joe Biden and his son shaking down everyone who had something before Joe Biden's policy,
00:07:43.880 Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Kazakhstan, China, just to name five. And the boldness of it, the ballsiness
00:07:53.180 of it, Joe Biden had no problem going to dinner with oligarchs who had a level of corruption, who,
00:07:59.260 if they were checking into the White House, probably would have gotten flagged by the Secret Service
00:08:03.020 during a background check. And yet there he is at dinner with his son. There he is getting on the phone
00:08:07.120 with him. It is extraordinary. And I think Speaker Gingrich is on to something, that this was probably
00:08:13.440 a larger culture of corruption. I wouldn't be surprised if Harry Reid shows up in it. And he's
00:08:19.100 encouraging Kevin McCarthy to go bigger. Obviously, don't take your eye off the ball on Joe Biden. He's
00:08:23.740 the man in charge right now. But maybe put Joe Biden into the larger context that this was a
00:08:28.420 Democrat machinery of corruption that multiple senior officials engaged in. That's an interesting
00:08:33.780 concept. And I think you just touched on it so brilliantly. Well, I'm going to actually stop
00:08:38.740 the conversation right there with brilliantly. Put a spike in that. That works. Exactly. Let's
00:08:47.020 turn to, you mentioned Newt Gingrich. And you know Speaker McCarthy very well. I'd like to know,
00:08:57.120 and I think the American people would like to know, who has the greatest influence over Speaker
00:09:00.840 McCarthy, who has been so reticent here, stepping up a little, but reticent, who has a greater influence
00:09:08.980 on him? Is it Speaker Gingrich or is it Speaker Ryan? Yeah, I don't think Speaker Ryan is in the
00:09:16.380 circulation with Speaker McCarthy these days. I do think Speaker Gingrich does have some influence.
00:09:22.660 I've had a lot of conversations across the caucus and with the Speaker and others. I think Kevin McCarthy
00:09:28.940 really wants to do impeachment. I think the truth of the matter is they're 14 votes short of being
00:09:34.120 able to have a four vote. And you can't take the vote and lose, right? Because it'll be a vindication
00:09:38.720 of Joe Biden. So he's trying to bring those 14 or so members along to get there. And I think what
00:09:45.580 those 14 members are looking for is we got to find the money. And once we know Joe Biden financially
00:09:50.520 benefited, we're going to be there. Everyone agrees that Hunter Biden ran a corrupt operation that Joe
00:09:56.080 Biden facilitated. But I think there are a dozen or so members that say for them to take the vote and say,
00:10:01.960 yeah, impeachment, we're going to go down that path, that we need to see the money. Now, I will say my story
00:10:09.000 last week, the story that showed that Joe Biden switched the policy for firing Shokin. He was supposed to give 0.99
00:10:14.540 the billion dollars, according to the career officials. He did the opposite. That has moved some people.
00:10:19.020 That definitely caught some attention. And here's the thing. I don't think it's an impossible task.
00:10:23.060 I think we're only a few weeks away from Congress securing the credit card and checking account
00:10:29.740 records of Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, other family members. That, I think, could open up an entirely
00:10:34.820 new conversation. But I think Kevin McCarthy is there. I think he also but, you know, he has to
00:10:39.560 count heads and the head count is a little short of a vote on the floor to get him there. It is
00:10:44.140 remarkable, given what has been exposed, that the Republican caucus is not unanimous yet. I think
00:10:49.660 you'll see an interim step that could be very meaningful, can be helpful. I mean, it's not
00:10:54.620 perfect. I don't want to get right to impeachment. But the next step could be Speaker McCarthy getting
00:10:59.640 a vote to impanel a select committee, just like the Democrats did for January 6. That's important
00:11:05.440 because the courts all over the last two years treated the select committee almost like it was
00:11:10.360 an impeachment committee and it expedited rulings that allowed Congress to get a hold of a whole bunch
00:11:16.420 of stuff when it was Donald Trump, attorney, client privilege, executive privilege, tax records
00:11:21.220 that never before had been released. There's a great body of law. If they upgraded these three
00:11:26.500 traditional oversight committees into a super committee, they could probably get a lot of
00:11:30.480 rulings quickly and enforce subpoenas and get things and maybe find those elements that flip those
00:11:35.960 last 12 Republicans. That's just what my reporting shows. I know it's not a perfect story, but it's an
00:11:40.520 honest story of where things are in Congress. I do think they're getting closer to following big
00:11:45.120 money. And next week, I hope to be able to come on and talk about a new whistleblower that saw a
00:11:52.160 level of money flow through the Hunter Biden conglomerate, Biden Inc., as I call it, that was
00:11:59.320 so concerning. He thought it was money laundering and he went much, much earlier to the United States
00:12:03.940 government. The government was alerted in 2015 and 16 to Hunter and Joe Biden's racket. It's just that
00:12:10.540 the government protected them. But this new revelation, these new records are going to just
00:12:15.380 show the flow of money was really regular people whose job it was to watch for money laundering and
00:12:21.240 banks saw this as money laundering and reported it all the way back in 15 and 16.
00:12:26.660 The relationship to the Obama administration is compelling.
00:12:31.440 It is.
00:12:31.960 Because it's almost as if the template became the Hillary Clinton, Clinton Global Initiative
00:12:38.580 and the foundation, which became a very large bank for the Clintons. We can follow their money
00:12:47.940 through to their income tax returns. We can do the same thing with the Bidens. What I don't know is,
00:12:56.420 has a Republican-led Ways and Means Committee not examined and compared the income tax records
00:13:05.800 of President Biden to the money that he spent? It seems like very basic math that could be
00:13:12.160 resolved very quickly because Ways and Means, as you well know, has access to all of that.
00:13:18.520 I think that's exactly where they're going. You have the bullseye drawn perfectly. That's where
00:13:22.680 the committees are going. And they're beginning to see some evidence that they kind of know,
00:13:27.500 they suspect where this is going.
00:13:28.960 Miranda Devine, in her book, said something very profound a couple of years ago, and it matches
00:13:33.660 what my reporting is showing, that Joe Biden grew up in the Delaware culture of corruption, which is,
00:13:39.140 all right, somebody else always pays your bill in Delaware. And I think what we're going to find is
00:13:43.080 you're not going to find a pot of money where Joe Biden said, oh, give me $10 million. I'll put that
00:13:46.800 in my mattress and we'll save it for when I'm out of office. I think what you're going to see is what
00:13:50.880 Hunter Biden acknowledged to his sister and other relatives at the time.
00:13:54.380 He was paying all of Pop's bills, as he called them, the big guy's bills.
00:13:58.900 And over the course of years, that foreign money would come into Hunter Biden's accounts,
00:14:02.640 and then he would go out and pay credit cards, repair bills, mortgages, whatever it is.
00:14:06.760 I think it's going to be that sort of system. That's what the lawmakers in Congress believe
00:14:11.880 they're going to find when they get all these bank records. And you're right.
00:14:15.520 We already know that there are very serious tax issues for Hunter Biden, felony tax issues,
00:14:20.700 even though David Weiss gave him a sweetheart deal at first.
00:14:23.420 But one of the questions you have to ask yourself, and this is, I think, one of the good questions
00:14:29.400 that the investigators are saying. All right. Hunter Biden did pay some taxes. He just didn't
00:14:33.360 pay like half of it. That's what he was saying he was giving to his dad. I think there's a theory
00:14:38.500 among the congressional investigators today that maybe Hunter Biden only paid some of his taxes
00:14:42.840 because he considered the rest of the money to be his dad's, and therefore he wasn't going to pay
00:14:46.840 taxes on giving money to his dad. I think that's a theory that congressional investigators
00:14:52.280 are now pursuing. And it's that next line of records that James Comer just requested in the
00:14:57.360 last few weeks, credit card checking accounts, mortgages and savings accounts. I think when
00:15:02.860 they put that follow the money trail together, they're going to get a clearance or whether their
00:15:06.340 theory is right or not. I think you're right over the target when you say taxes and the
00:15:10.480 commingling of finances. I think that's where the Biden scandal ultimately ends.
00:15:14.640 Does Jason Smith have a, he's obviously a very bright and capable fellow. I want to take up
00:15:22.820 the role of the Ways and Means Committee because it's one of the four principal investigating
00:15:27.420 committees in Congress right now. We're talking with John Solomon. He runs Just the News. He also
00:15:34.720 founded it. And he is also a great friend. We'll continue with John Solomon in one moment. Stay with us.
00:15:41.220 We're back with John Solomon and we're talking with John about right now, the Ways and Means
00:15:53.220 Committee and its role right down the investigation, because it seems to be gaining a greater, greater
00:16:01.000 attention on the part of the, all of the investigators and include this, including the speaker.
00:16:06.620 Jason Smith has done, I'm told a terrific job. Give us your impression of where he fits right now
00:16:15.340 going forward. You know, I think the three of them together, Jim Jordan, James Comer and
00:16:22.740 Chairman Smith have, Jason Smith have all worked together really brilliantly. Each one takes a bite.
00:16:28.860 They put the Democrats on a three front war, which is harder to fight than a single front war.
00:16:33.460 And each one of them has used the power of their committee to advance the investigation without
00:16:37.980 duplicating the work of others. And I think that is in past years, particularly in the Paul Ryan era,
00:16:43.180 and quite frankly, even in the Danny Hastert era, there wasn't that level of efficiency and
00:16:47.500 coordination. Jim Jordan, James Comer and Jason Smith have put their egos aside to create the most
00:16:52.880 efficient machine they could. Ways and Means can do something that nobody else can. They can get tax
00:16:57.360 records and make them public. And that's what they did when they brought the IRS whistleblowers to the
00:17:02.040 forefront. And it's hard to argue that the IRS whistleblowers emergence in the public didn't
00:17:07.160 have an impact because now even mainstream media treat those whistleblowers as legit.
00:17:11.500 And a lot of the turning of the rhetoric, you see Jake Tapper on CNN saying, oh, Joe Biden lied to us
00:17:17.360 and Donald Trump was right about, wow, that's a big statement from CNN. You saw something similar
00:17:21.420 from the former Meet the Press moderator on NBC. And you see the Washington Post and New York Times
00:17:27.920 and CBS News now covering this more legitimately. The moment the IRS whistleblowers came forward was
00:17:33.340 that flashpoint that I think stung the U.S. news media. And they realized we better start covering
00:17:39.140 this because we look really bad. All of them are moving the ball front. And there was an old
00:17:44.360 Broadway song, I Could Do Anything Better Than You. I think Jason Smith said, you know, I watched the
00:17:49.020 Democrats go get Donald Trump's tax records. All right, watch what I'm going to do now. I think he's the
00:17:54.500 guy that could get Joe Biden's tax records. I think he could get some of the banking records
00:17:58.840 and working alongside of Comer and Jordan, give the most 360 degree view of just how this Biden
00:18:05.200 operation ran and what the potential legal and criminal issues are. And I think this three-headed
00:18:11.700 siren is actually really working in ways that I've never seen prior Republican investigations do.
00:18:17.180 Right. They can make it so clear. Jordan is the head of both judiciary and the and I love the fact
00:18:24.720 that he is the chairman as well of the weaponization of government subcommittee, which is an interesting
00:18:30.440 and I think maybe unprecedented position to take. It makes it makes him a very potent inquisitor and
00:18:40.740 investigator. The idea that this is heading toward impeachment, you talked about being 14 votes
00:18:48.040 short. And I understand that. But I also understand that there should have been, if you will, some
00:18:54.320 comprehension that when you have 20, 20 rhinos who stand against censoring Adam Schiff for lying to the
00:19:04.440 American people for years, they're going to be recalcitrant. The only thing that I can see is to embarrass 1.00
00:19:11.600 them with the facts. And that would mean bringing the impeachment inquiry. It doesn't have it. That
00:19:17.400 doesn't even need a vote. Why not go that way? Do you know why they're so reticent to this?
00:19:23.240 Well, listen, I think they want to exhaust the other option because it's only a short few weeks that it would
00:19:27.360 require to do so. I get a sense that even some of the rhinos that have been reluctant to step in,
00:19:34.440 that they themselves have said, listen, we understand that this is getting more serious.
00:19:38.680 Let's get it to a point that everyone feels good and then we can do it. And what in earlier
00:19:43.560 sagas, you would say that's the delay game. That's the thing. But in this case, because the leading
00:19:49.460 three investigators are so assertive and they've been so successful, it feels like they've been
00:19:53.620 investigating for two years, but they've really only been on the job seven months and they faced a lot
00:19:57.840 of resistance and they bowled over it. I think the evidence that those holdouts need is going to be,
00:20:03.640 if it exists, it will be acquired in a very short record. And then there's something
00:20:07.560 more like Watergate, more like Richard Nixon about the way Kevin McCarthy is going about this than the
00:20:14.380 drive-by impeachments that the Democrats did too. I think the great dishonor and discredit of the
00:20:20.840 institution. I think it can be done the right way and quickly and get, I think some Democrats will flip
00:20:26.500 and I'll point you to one little episode. It happened in late July. Nobody noticed it, but I think it's one of
00:20:32.440 the most important things that happened. Chris Coons, longtime buddy of Joe Biden, a Democrat senator
00:20:39.820 from Delaware, co-chairman of the 2024 Joe Biden presidential campaign, said something profound
00:20:47.660 because it shows how far the Democrats have gone from nothing to look here, Hunter Biden did nothing
00:20:53.380 wrong. In an interview on NBC, he said, you know what? I kind of think it's worth looking at tightening
00:20:58.500 the laws so that future first families can't cash in on their job, you know, the political leader's 0.96
00:21:06.100 job. That is a bit. Now, of course, how convenient? Joe Biden already made his money, so don't worry
00:21:10.800 about it. But it is a real major shift. Two years ago, they were like, this is a conspiracy theory.
00:21:17.140 Now they're at the point of saying, well, we might even need a law to stop what we've been exposed.
00:21:21.400 The Republicans have rolled the news media. The Republicans have begun to roll the Democrats
00:21:25.700 to a different position. Every time that position moves a little further down the line, the public
00:21:30.540 is more in line with perhaps getting to a point of impeachment. And I don't think this is a long
00:21:36.980 process. I think in the next six to 10 weeks, the bank records, some of these Ukrainian officials who
00:21:42.820 are now coming forward, offering cooperation, we can get all that information and the public will have
00:21:47.520 a much bigger idea. And I think your idea is going to be the idea. I think Joe Biden is also going to be
00:21:53.800 put in the context of the Democrats for running a racket. If you were a dynastic family, Clinton,
00:21:59.640 Biden, Obama, you set up these operations, you made your money. And if they expose that whole thing,
00:22:05.160 it really is generational. It could be like Watergate as opposed to, you know, the sort of
00:22:10.300 drive by impeachments that Donald Trump went through and then got acquitted on.
00:22:14.080 Yeah, I understand that perspective. And if it's held, and frankly, I hope very much, I hope I will
00:22:24.720 even pray over this one that is not shared by Kevin McCarthy, because this is this is a historical
00:22:30.920 moment. It's a historic moment. It's actually both. The there aren't in my my opinion, at least,
00:22:40.120 John, six to 10 weeks, because right now we're only what, five weeks away from the end of this
00:22:46.380 fiscal year. Yeah, they're going to be hit by spending plans. We're going to be looking at
00:22:51.080 continuing resolution debates. We're going to see all, frankly, all hell break loose within the
00:22:56.520 Republican conference. And that's going to be a significant distraction from whatever happens.
00:23:01.500 That's right. This impeachment is so important to the country. The American people, 70 percent of
00:23:08.440 people know that the charges against Trump are politically motivated. It's it's just it's time.
00:23:15.580 And I hope and I will pray that Speaker McCarthy understands that if if he does not move to a
00:23:23.320 an inquiry, an impeachment inquiry, he doesn't need a floor vote for that. He can then begin to convince
00:23:29.380 people with and shame them, frankly, into support for what is the right thing to do. Every American in
00:23:35.640 the country, every honest American knows what the evidence that that Comer and Jordan and Smith
00:23:42.840 have produced. It says it's it's rotten, it's rampant. And the government right now is in the
00:23:49.360 control of the most corrupt political party in history, the Marxist Dems who control that party, 0.78
00:23:54.500 the Democrat Party. It's got to be dealt with now or we may lose the chance. I mean, there is a
00:23:59.920 tremendous time burden here. Yeah, I agree. Time matters. And the further you get into 2024,
00:24:05.320 the less likely people are to treat the impeachment with the seriousness that this one will require,
00:24:10.500 because this is a very serious corruption scandal. And again, the Bidens deserve all the
00:24:15.040 benefit of the doubt. They presumed innocent. But the evidence that's now in the record shows three
00:24:21.060 very compelling things. Joe Biden lied his way into the presidency. He told us multiple lies and he got
00:24:26.940 other people in his campaign, got other people to construct lies, to deflect his family's scandal
00:24:33.680 and to fool the American people. That is a very powerful thing. People hate when the president lies
00:24:38.040 to them. That is second. There's not any doubt that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden allowed their family name
00:24:44.160 to be sold to the highest bidder in these foreign and often corrupt foreign figures to enrich their
00:24:50.340 family. That is something that we've never, with the exception of the Clintons, never really saw in
00:24:54.700 history and certainly never saw a president do before. And then third, I think you begin to see now that Joe
00:25:00.540 Biden actually was changing policies and taking actions that benefited his son's clients that may not have
00:25:06.380 been in the interest of the United States. And I think those three narratives are pretty well formed right
00:25:12.540 now. And that's why I think many folks, you include it. And by the way, I think Kevin McCarthy's there,
00:25:17.840 believe that impeachment is warranted. It will be very interesting to see how the next few weeks are
00:25:23.380 navigated. Kevin McCarthy staked out a very hard position in the 2019 impeachment, which was that
00:25:31.260 Nancy Pelosi was wrong to not have a House floor vote. All prior impeachments had a full vote of the 1.00
00:25:37.800 House floor. She skipped it. And of course, one could argue, well, she created the record. We should
00:25:42.860 follow it. And I think that's what some Republicans argue. But when Kevin McCarthy and quite frankly,
00:25:48.420 the entire leadership of the Republican Party, including Jim Jordan and people like that,
00:25:52.920 they all said if it's ever happened again, they would go back to the traditional way.
00:25:56.460 So they dug out a position that actually may be difficult for them to break right now.
00:26:01.920 I just think, and again, I know what's going on behind the scenes. I think there's some bombshell
00:26:06.560 revelations coming in September. I think this moves a lot quicker. Momentum is in. August is often a
00:26:12.600 sleepy time. You know what? James Comer and Jim Jordan didn't take a day off in August.
00:26:15.940 Think of all the revelations since the last few times we talked this month.
00:26:20.040 They put out big things almost every couple of days.
00:26:23.320 We're going to be talking about those big things right after this quick commercial break.
00:26:27.680 We're talking with John Solomon, editor in chief of Just the News.
00:26:31.740 Please stay with us through this quick break. We'll be right back.
00:26:40.320 We're back now with John Solomon. And John, just before the break,
00:26:44.740 we're talking about a host of issues here. What's the new revelations and evidence that's been
00:26:50.460 produced by the investigating congressional committees. We're talking about now a clear
00:26:55.820 understanding of the history and those who want to not relitigate 2020. All of that is on the record
00:27:03.260 because all of that indicates the degree to which this country has been victimized by the Marxist
00:27:11.180 Dems who control both the Biden regime and the Democrat Party. I want to go to the efforts of
00:27:17.760 the attorney general right now to block the congressional committees, whether it is using
00:27:23.040 David Weiss as a special counsel for only one purpose, and that is to say there's an ongoing
00:27:27.360 investigation of Joe Biden, or whether it is to just further shut down the system. Once again,
00:27:37.100 we're starting to hear the drumbeat about COVID from the left and from the CDC.
00:27:41.720 How silly is that?
00:27:43.260 It's silly beyond belief, but how silly was it the first time as well?
00:27:48.220 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Listen, you are right. And I think we always remember both the original crime
00:27:55.940 and the cover up of Watergate and of other scandals since then, the Clinton Asian fundraising scandal,
00:28:01.820 which really was one of the greatest national security threats involving grift in modern history.
00:28:08.100 There is in this moment, while we're finally getting the truth, we were denied about the Joe Biden family
00:28:16.460 of efforts to make money from these suspect foreign sources, some really troubling indications of
00:28:24.800 something else going on. And I think of all the revelations the last week that could have consequence
00:28:29.380 in the next few months. The idea that the deputy prosecutor for Jack Smith was at the White House meeting
00:28:35.540 just before the Donald Trump criminal investigation was ordered up by President Biden,
00:28:41.860 that is going to, I think, result in some really stunning revelations.
00:28:47.920 And there's just no basis for an active prosecutor to go meet with the opposition party's leader
00:28:55.280 to find out if it's OK to go and pursue Donald Trump criminally. And as you know, from the documents
00:29:01.000 I made public last year, Joe Biden ordered the criminal investigation. He instructed the FBI
00:29:05.480 to go to the National Archives. I'm sorry, he instructed the National Archives to file a report
00:29:09.340 with the FBI to get it going. The timing of the meeting with the prosecutor in that I think there's
00:29:14.680 going to be some major revelations. They're going to further accentuate this concept of weaponization
00:29:20.020 of the government. And then on another front, a lot of people missed this yesterday, but it's a story
00:29:24.500 that's very important to me. The House Foreign Affairs Committee has assembled extraordinary evidence
00:29:31.380 that the bombing at the Kabul airport that killed the 13 soldiers during the bungled withdrawal of
00:29:36.660 Afghanistan, that there was a Marine sniper who had the ability to take out that bomber and the Biden
00:29:42.700 administration and its chain of command prevented him from shooting the terrorists and therefore cost 13
00:29:48.900 American lives and really a catastrophic end to the 20 year war in Afghanistan. These are major
00:29:55.060 revelations that multiple House committees are digging into. The Biden presidency is really hanging
00:30:01.280 in the balance. Anyone and all of these are potentially major scandals that in any other era in American
00:30:07.120 history would have sidetracked the presidency. Joe Biden has four or five of them going on now.
00:30:13.460 Afghanistan, the possible political tampering with the Donald Trump investigation, the original
00:30:20.680 investigation of the financial corruption, and then the sweetheart deal that David Weiss and maybe
00:30:30.000 some career prosecutors and Justice Department gave Hunter Biden. Those are four major scandals.
00:30:35.060 Any one of them could have tipped an earlier president and any one of them could really define the end of
00:30:40.220 the Biden presidency. And David Weiss, or as we know him now, special counsel, David Weiss.
00:30:45.480 Yeah, the arrogance. The arrogance of what the Justice Department has done. But the American people
00:30:52.100 know one thing that is rampantly corrupt. And this administration is rampantly corrupt. They don't
00:30:57.940 need an impeachment process, an inquiry to know it. And you talked about working for Joe Biden,
00:31:04.520 interfering, calling up the National Archives, the White House to tell them how to operate.
00:31:10.780 And guess what? It's happening. They're still working for the Biden administration over the
00:31:14.420 National Archives. 5,400 emails. And guess what? They won't produce them. Suddenly, the National
00:31:22.820 Archivist, a bunch of librarians, have more power than the United States Congress. This is insane.
00:31:29.460 Yeah, you couldn't have put it more better. And listen, it's the same NARA that was calling the
00:31:34.480 Constitution and our founding documents harmful content just a few years ago. Remember that story
00:31:40.400 that we wrote a couple of years ago? It's the same National Archives that will not release to me,
00:31:45.640 though I'm authorized to receive them, the Russia collusion documents that a president lawfully
00:31:50.500 ordered to classify and release to the public and to me. And it's the same National Archives that
00:31:55.640 denied me the access to those 5,400 emails. That's my Freedom of Information Act request.
00:32:00.340 And now, because of the good graces of the Southeastern Legal Foundation, we're going to sue
00:32:04.400 to compel discovery. And we will win because the law is on our side. But the National Archives not only
00:32:10.240 is putting their thumb on politics, they're thwarting the ability of the American people to get
00:32:14.900 history, which is why we created NARA. NARA was supposed to give us an honest account of history.
00:32:19.540 And what they have done is given us anything but an honest account. Keep in mind,
00:32:23.500 they knew that Joe Biden had a classified memos problem. At the same time, they were allowing all
00:32:28.380 the leaks on the Donald Trump side. And Joe Biden had a similar problem. And they kept that secret
00:32:33.080 until after the midterm elections. The National Archives, I think, has given itself a black eye that
00:32:40.260 will perhaps last a generation. Americans will look at the archives, even if they do everything right
00:32:45.140 from this point forward and say, do I trust these guys anymore? They called the Constitution harmful.
00:32:49.340 They they concocted a criminal case against Donald Trump. And oh, they kept us from a whole lot of
00:32:54.560 information about Joe Biden. I don't think Americans are going to trust the archives, even though it's
00:32:59.040 such has such an important role in preserving American history. And it's all on their shoulders.
00:33:04.060 They made that problem for themselves by being dishonest.
00:33:08.340 Well, dishonest, dishonest people use aliases. They use all sorts of shop companies. But Hillary Clinton, 1.00
00:33:17.960 President Obama, President of Biden, Biden, I'm running it together. It's really the Obama Biden
00:33:24.900 administration. It's a good Irish name, though. Yeah, it is. Maybe somebody should pick it up
00:33:29.700 if they if they don't care about sullying themselves. All of these aliases, the 5400 emails all about
00:33:38.320 those aliases. Why in the world should a president of the United States need an alias unless they are doing
00:33:43.220 something very wrong, unethical, immoral? It's outrageous. It is a question that has a self-evident answer to
00:33:52.620 most Americans. And I think that's why what's going on right now is so powerful. The mainstream media have
00:33:59.560 created a permanent blockade from this information. The big tech censor censored it. Joe Biden called
00:34:06.380 it conspiracy theories. And yet today, the American people have been able to absorb the truth and get
00:34:12.500 the facts because of the work of what you've done using your extraordinary bullhorn in journalism.
00:34:17.480 What I've done, other people have done. A majority of Americans believe Hunter Biden and Joe Biden did
00:34:22.180 something corrupt. A majority of three quarters of Americans believe the country's on the wrong track,
00:34:26.920 even though they're being fed a story that all by now is working. It's remarkable. But the gatekeepers
00:34:32.020 for the first time have lost control of the gate. And today we have found a way to inform the American
00:34:38.040 people around institutions that used to do it, but have become contrary to the idea of free speech.
00:34:43.600 And the American people are far wiser. I think someone asked me the other day, what is Joe Biden's
00:34:49.260 greatest vulnerability at this moment? And it just kind of blurted out of me. And I think now I believe
00:34:53.760 it more than ever. I said, I think it's the belief that he thinks the American people are stupid and
00:34:59.340 haven't caught on to what he's doing. And that's what's going to catch him. The American people are
00:35:03.460 on to Joe Biden, the Democratic machine, the Democratic media and the big tech censors and
00:35:10.560 the deep state actors who have tried to put their thumb on elections and on the honesty of information
00:35:17.620 flowing to the American people. The American people figured it out in spite of all their efforts
00:35:22.560 to fool us. I couldn't agree with you more. And I and I think there's still one piece of
00:35:28.940 unfinished business that does have to be finished. This has to be brought to resolution. Yes. And
00:35:34.420 that is those 51 Intel veterans who signed that letter at the behest of the Biden administration
00:35:41.540 with the direction of a former CIA director acting, though he may have been, as well as the current
00:35:49.620 at that time, CIA intelligence chieftains for the Obama administration.
00:35:57.400 Think about this. The man that instigated it all before morale and the intelligence agents got,
00:36:01.760 it started with Tony Blinken. What job does Tony Blinken have to? He's our secretary of state.
00:36:06.140 He is our face to the world. And he was involved in a significant scan to mislead the electorate in the
00:36:14.400 greatest constitutional republic history ever created. He's not been held to count. I've never seen the
00:36:18.940 Foreign Affairs Committee, haul him in and say, hey, why did you do this? I haven't seen the
00:36:23.280 Intelligence Committee do it. Those are two committees that are AWOL on the issue of Tony
00:36:28.660 Blinken's involvement. Now, Jordan and Comer and Smith are there, but those committees should bring
00:36:34.920 Tony Blinken in and ask him why he did it. And does he regret it? And how do we correct it? And will
00:36:42.820 you discipline the 51? That hasn't happened. That is a missed opportunity for two major committees of
00:36:48.980 Congress to do so. Now, they've done a good job in Afghanistan. I get that. But this is a big one.
00:36:53.180 Tony Blinken started the whole thing. It's not in doubt. Morrell's documents and his testimony proved
00:36:58.560 that. And too many people, John, need to be reminded on occasion in Washington that Tony Blinken was also
00:37:05.980 running the the Penn Biden Center was with all of those classified documents from President and Vice
00:37:15.260 President Biden at the time. A lot of questions to be answered. Great talking with you as always,
00:37:21.780 John. Thanks. Thank you, sir. Work that you're doing for the American people. And I think history
00:37:26.980 will be kind to a few journalists and you chief among them. Thanks so much for me.
