The Great America Show - JOHN SOLOMON SAYS DEMS HAVE WEAPONIZED THE LAW, THE FBI & INTELL COMMUNITY AGAINST REPUBLICANS

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Thanks for being with us here today on The Great America Show.

00:00:05.940 Well, we're at midweek, and I'm already, well, thinking about what a great Independence Day holiday we had.

00:00:12.620 I hope you had a great one, too.

00:00:14.700 Our family this past weekend had a hoop, eating watermelon and eating way too much,

00:00:19.640 watching the grandkids and the dogs playing in the yard, and then setting off fireworks on the 4th

00:00:25.200 and counting our blessings for so many reasons, and certainly because we had such a wonderful

00:00:30.620 traditional 4th of July weekend. Like you, we celebrated our national independence,

00:00:36.700 while the left cussed it and us. They hate this country, don't they? They hate the country that

00:00:43.300 gives them the freedom to hate the country. But we're used to the canary yellow left and their 0.99

00:00:48.780 conflicted outlook and their wicked ways, so yes, you and I can handle all of that as well.

00:00:55.200 And suddenly here we are, at midweek, and Biden and his bozos are babbling about one thing or the

00:01:02.820 other, and old Joe is still playing pretend president. Or is he thinking he's the leader

00:01:08.360 for life of the liberal world order? Some of the wackos who work in the puppet presidency seem to 0.98

00:01:14.980 think so. Brian Deese, the head of the Biden National Economic Council, who, like his boss,

00:01:20.920 ties high gasoline prices to the Putin invasion of Ukraine, avowing that the Biden presidency will

00:01:28.580 stand firm on both Ukraine and high prices, because Western civilization is at stake here. 0.85

00:01:36.700 Reese went on to say Biden will do what he can, which of course isn't much, but suck it up,

00:01:42.380 American consumers, because there are much more important considerations here,

00:01:47.240 like the liberal world order, which the Biden White House supports at whatever cost to America

00:01:54.440 and Americans. The puppet's geniuses have been releasing a million barrels of our oil from the 0.85

00:02:01.560 strategic petroleum reserves into our economy each day, trying to lower gasoline prices. That's right,

00:02:09.240 that isn't working. Never has. But now we find out that five million barrels of that oil

00:02:15.720 has been shipped overseas to our friends in Europe. That's right, the same place where Biden has sent our

00:02:23.800 troops to protect the Europeans from Putin because the euros won't. And some of that crude oil being

00:02:31.680 sent to China of all places, the same place that steals five to six hundred billion dollars a year 0.79

00:02:38.740 of our intellectual capital and technology, the very same communist China.

00:02:44.520 So who is the Biden Justice Department, after all, prosecuting? Well, they shut down their China

00:02:52.780 focus task force last year, and now they're suing the state of Arizona, which wants voters to show

00:02:59.180 proof of citizenship before they cast their ballots. Wow. Arizona actually wants citizens only voting.

00:03:06.720 And the Biden administration says we're suing. Guess it makes cheating way too hard for the Marxist left.

00:03:14.520 And the Biden Justice Department is all wrapped up in the January 6th committee,

00:03:19.800 Stalinist theatrics and show trials that are a partisan cancer in the Democrat Party. The partisan

00:03:26.840 iniquity of the committee's hearings make the McCarthy era look quaint by comparison. Our guest

00:03:33.060 today is John Solomon. He's founder and editor-in-chief of justthenews.com. John and Just the News

00:03:39.720 during their usual great work and reporting on the committee and its victims. John, always great to

00:03:45.920 have you with us on The Great America Show. Following your reporting and just the news, the committee isn't

00:03:51.060 even trying, it seems to me at least, to appear fair and impartial. It doesn't, to me at least,

00:03:57.880 even try to rise above what is obviously evil farce.

00:04:03.360 Well, listen, I've covered investigative hearings like you have, Lou, for 30 years. And I can't

00:04:08.500 imagine Jaworski, the Watergate prosecutor, putting on a case like this. I can't imagine Fred Thompson,

00:04:14.660 when he did the Clinton scandal hearings. I can't imagine the 9-11 commission holding hearings where you

00:04:23.080 have a hearsay witness, you rush to put her on, and you don't even check with the Secret Service,

00:04:28.080 whether her allegation that Donald Trump, by the way, a sensational allegation, that Donald Trump

00:04:32.840 assaulted the Secret Service and took control of the steering wheel, grabbed the steering wheel of

00:04:38.340 the limousine. I don't know how many people have seen the presidential limousine, but there's a glass

00:04:42.340 divider. The president would have had to cut through the glass divider, jump over his seat to do this.

00:04:47.280 On its face, it should have raised some suspicion, but they don't even go ask the Secret Service about it.

00:04:52.100 They put this testimony out there, and then the next morning, the very allegation that they got

00:04:57.400 headlines on gets debunked. And we've seen this pattern four times in the last month. We saw it

00:05:02.520 with Barry Loudermilk being accused of running a recon mission in the Capitol. Turns out he wasn't

00:05:07.440 even in the Capitol. Capitol police said he didn't do it. We saw this with Bernie Kerik, accused of

00:05:11.700 attending a January 5th meeting in D.C. to overturn the election results. He was in New York. He wasn't

00:05:16.600 at the meeting. We could prove that with phone and toll booth records. And they did it last week with

00:05:21.400 Ron Johnson when they said Ron Johnson tried to hand deliver electors, alternate electors, to Mike

00:05:29.200 Pence, the vice president. And the most interesting thing is they put out some text messages that kind

00:05:34.800 of hinted at it, and they kept secret. The rest of the text messages that show, oh, no, they got

00:05:40.280 waved off that. They never did it. They checked it out. They said, we don't want to do it, and it never

00:05:44.120 happened. This is probably the weakest evidence, most dishonest congressional hearings I've seen in my 30

00:05:50.920 years. The only thing that rivals it may be some of the omissions in the hearings that the Joe

00:05:55.980 McCarthy hearings did in the 1950s. And even then, they had better evidence than what this committee

00:06:00.800 is continually imposing on the American people. It's shameful. They're intentionally, knowingly,

00:06:06.200 and willfully misinforming the public. And the media reports one thing one day and then has to turn

00:06:10.620 around the next day, and they don't question the next piece of evidence they're given. They don't even

00:06:14.600 challenge it for a second. They keep accepting these false stories.

00:06:17.920 To me, John, the thing that rivals it first is the exculpatory knowledge on the part of the

00:06:25.660 Department of Justice, the FBI, when it came to the Russia collusion disinformation campaign,

00:06:33.580 the lies throughout the deep state, the permanent bureaucracy, and the democratic leadership. I mean,

00:06:40.480 it's exactly the same thing. The lies that were told surrounding Zelensky and the phone call with

00:06:46.940 President Trump, the lies about obstruction of justice, trying to construct something,

00:06:54.460 anything that would hold, but they couldn't in two impeachment hearings. This is just the same

00:06:59.760 nonsense. It is. They've gotten away with it for so long, they actually think it's an appropriate 0.86

00:07:03.600 thing to do now. And that's bad for the public. You know why? Because as you were talking about how,

00:07:09.740 if you will, tasty, how delicious this would be for one of the January 6th panelists, let's say

00:07:17.060 Liz Cheney, to have out there, I don't think that they checked it because on its face, as you said,

00:07:23.240 it's absolutely nonsensical. So they didn't want to check with the Secret Service because they knew

00:07:29.860 that the odds would be at least 99% that they'd knock it down before they could air it publicly

00:07:35.380 and create a new false narrative for the public to dine on.

00:07:40.860 Yeah, no, you're exactly right. And at some point, the boy that cries wolf syndrome is going to sink

00:07:46.060 in, even with a mainstream media that has been complicit in so much of the lies you just laid

00:07:50.980 out, Russia collusion, Ukraine, Lafayette Square, you can name all the ones that we got misled on in

00:07:55.900 the previous five years. But I think you're starting to see some early cracks in the media.

00:08:01.820 Yesterday, it was NBC News that first reported that the Secret Service was pushing back.

00:08:07.040 So maybe even the mainstream media who've been complicit in these false anti-Trump stories for

00:08:11.840 the last five, even they are tiring of this. But the American people, this is bad for them.

00:08:17.260 Listen, they're worried about inflation, gas prices, food shortages, baby formula shortages,

00:08:22.940 and they keep getting these scandals foist upon them. They get their emotions up. Maybe they get mad

00:08:27.440 for a little while. And then the next day they realize, oh, wait a second, that wasn't true. It was like

00:08:30.920 my kid lying to me when I punished them. It just isn't true. At some point, that cycle

00:08:35.820 has an effect on the American voter, and it usually will be most evident in the next election. They

00:08:41.000 will take it out on the Democrats in the next election. We now have video that disproves all of

00:08:46.700 the, not all, but nearly all of the allegations. Again, the reckless and absurd allegations against

00:08:53.860 the Proud Boys, being a mob of insurrectionists, planted, planting their flag on Capitol Hill.

00:09:03.080 We have everything that, I mean, any substance right now that matters. The hundreds of people

00:09:11.080 have been charged for just being on Capitol Hill recklessly and shamelessly and in violation

00:09:16.680 of all their rights. And now listen, listen to two, two people on, if you will, Fox News. After

00:09:25.140 watching the hearsay evidence of a 25 year old, uh, who suddenly had information no one else

00:09:32.180 apparently did. Here's Brett Baer.

00:09:35.580 This testimony was very compelling from beginning to end. She obviously had access to all of the players.

00:09:42.580 We are now hearing from the former president on various posts where he questions her, uh,

00:09:49.740 accuracy. He goes after her directly, says he doesn't know who she is and said he didn't lunge at

00:09:55.560 the secret service agent in the beast. Uh, that didn't happen. He says he didn't throw his lunch

00:10:00.920 against the wall. That didn't happen. And that she's lying. Cassie Hutchinson is under oath on Capitol

00:10:07.360 Hill. Uh, the president is on truth social, uh, making his statements. What do we

00:10:12.560 was so compelling? I think is, is how it was laid out. We always point out that there's not a pushback

00:10:18.760 and it would have been great to hear Jim Jordan or some congressman say some other angle to this,

00:10:24.820 but the testimony in and of itself is really, really powerful.

00:10:30.780 Your reaction, John, uh, style over substance, right? Uh, you see a journalist here who was wowed

00:10:38.120 by the Hollywood presentation without taking the independence to step back and say, wait a second,

00:10:43.200 she doesn't witness any of these things. She's hearing conversations. She's relaying third party

00:10:47.740 hearsay, which would be inadmissible in a court of law. In many cases, um, uh, a journalist should

00:10:53.660 have gotten past the wow factor and began to ask the questions. Maybe Brett Baer should have called

00:10:58.320 the secret service and said, Hey, uh, this woman makes this allegation, but she wasn't in the car.

00:11:02.820 What do you know about it now to Fox news's credit? One of the reporters finally did that

00:11:07.460 later last night, but to me, I, this is the problem with journalism. You have too many people

00:11:12.520 that aren't actually reporting. They're just opining and they're substituting their opinion for fact

00:11:17.160 that he had an obligation. If he was going to be so enamored by the compelling testimony,

00:11:22.240 he said, all right, wait, this is third party hearsay. How about I call the secret service? How

00:11:25.580 about I call the president of the United States? How about I call other people in the white house?

00:11:29.500 Like the lawyer who says, I wrote a note that Cassie, uh, Cassidy was taking credit for 0.97

00:11:34.420 that would have been a more compelling form of journalism for Fox news or for any news outlet.

00:11:39.140 But we have a lot of people today that just want to opine without doing the reporting.

00:11:43.360 When I saw all this yesterday, the first thing I did is I started making calls to my secret service

00:11:47.460 sources, to the Capitol police, the Capitol police said, Hey, listen, this whole thing about guns.

00:11:51.900 We knew about that for two weeks before the way before Donald Trump was talking about it.

00:11:56.560 And we didn't prepare for it. So I put that document out or those set of documents out.

00:12:01.200 I think reporters are better served to stick to facts.

00:12:04.240 I agree with you. When you say we didn't prepare for it, you're referring to the secret service.

00:12:10.060 The Capitol police. Yeah. So what you see in the story we have this morning is on New Year's Eve,

00:12:16.060 2027 days before the fateful riot on Capitol Hill. There is a intelligence officer inside the

00:12:23.860 Capitol police that gets intelligence from his task force and partners. This includes Homeland

00:12:28.380 Security, FBI, U.S. Marshals Service gave him a really big warning. And then he distills it down

00:12:34.300 to the commanders and the intelligence experts and the investigators and say, this is what we're

00:12:38.560 hearing about January 6th. And let's just go through what Nancy Pelosi's Capitol police. Remember,

00:12:44.040 at this moment, the Capitol police report to Nancy Pelosi through the House Sergeant-at-Arms.

00:12:48.100 This is what is sitting. These are quotes from the intelligence report distributed to people in the

00:12:54.960 Capitol police that morning. And I'm going to pull them up. I'm going to pull the document up because

00:12:58.980 they're just so compelling when you look at them. It's very much like 9-11, where we now know,

00:13:04.800 because of the work of the commission, that all the dots are sitting there. No one put them together.

00:13:09.060 You have almost an identical scenario here. And let me just read you. This is from the morning of

00:13:14.820 December 31st, about seven days before the Capitol was overrun. Far-right extremists are calling for

00:13:23.720 an armed encampment and to hang corpses of Democrats at January 6th pro-Trump demonstrations.

00:13:29.940 That's one of the intel summaries that they got. Here's another one. Armed and ready demonstrators

00:13:34.920 urged to bring guns, prepare for violence at January 6th, stop the steel protests. Here's a third entry

00:13:40.060 that came in. Far-right forum users discussed taking violent actions at D.C. Trump rally. And

00:13:47.660 I'll give you a fourth one that came in from the Marshal Service, which is pretty remarkable.

00:13:52.320 Marshal Service had intelligence because they're embedded sometimes with some of these bad groups.

00:13:56.800 In about two weeks, there's going to, this is a quote that they captured from a social media video

00:14:00.460 on TikTok. In about two weeks, there's going to be a march in D.C. This is one of the planned

00:14:05.140 attendees talking to others on TikTok. You know, those cops are going to be lined up with their

00:14:09.780 shields. And I'm going to not use the next word of expletive. You know what I mean? We got to get

00:14:14.340 some blank going on with snipers. They were talking about using guns. So the president might have made

00:14:19.780 a comment on January 6th. On the 31st, there are multiple warnings to Capitol Police that some bad

00:14:25.920 things are going to happen. And here's what they don't do. They don't get more riot squads. They don't

00:14:29.860 even have their riot gear available the morning of. They don't tell their frontline officers.

00:14:33.800 And they turned down not once but twice an offer from the president of the United States and his

00:14:38.960 Pentagon to have 10,000 troops that could quell any violence that these people were talking about

00:14:44.100 in these intercepts. These documents show the one thing the Democrats are trying to distract from.

00:14:50.760 The riot on January 6th, 2021 was preventable. Security could have prevented the bad people from

00:14:57.180 doing what they did. And they dropped the ball. And everything else they're doing right now

00:15:01.480 is to distract our attention from that irrefutable reality.

00:15:06.320 The mendaciousness of this committee, its panel members, is, even by Marxist-DEM standards,

00:15:15.400 overwhelming. It really is. There is one other thing that might have been taken into consideration

00:15:21.660 when evaluating the claims of this young witness with such apparently preposterous claims, frankly.

00:15:33.040 Maybe someone should have asked, was Donald Trump lying here or was Adam Schiff?

00:15:39.820 Was Jamie Raskin lying here or was Donald Trump? Which has the record of telling the truth,

00:15:50.920 being straightforward throughout this three years of FBI investigation, almost two years

00:15:58.260 of special counsel, two presidential impeachments, and now the January 6th.

00:16:02.820 Donald Trump has never been found to have lied. Adam Schiff has. Jamie Raskin and the previous

00:16:11.920 committees, including especially the House Intelligence Committee, lying. So I think that maybe

00:16:18.080 anyone trying to analyze something as it's moving, who isn't given to talking to sources, as you point out,

00:16:26.660 apparently had none, and makes that claim about how compelling this is, might have to evaluate just

00:16:36.020 who are the sources here. I think you're right. Or Adam Schiff. You're right. We have a five-year

00:16:42.780 record of history of accusations made by these same players. They have turned out time and time and time

00:16:49.400 again to be erroneous. Adam Schiff on Russian bounties, on Lafayette Square, on the Trump

00:16:56.160 withheld the National Guard in the morning of the six. The IG came out a few months ago, said that

00:17:00.280 wasn't true. Russia collusion, Ukraine, bad phone call turned out to be a good phone call. At some

00:17:06.200 point, you would ask yourself as a journalist, at what point am I going to start challenging the stuff

00:17:11.380 that people are feeding me without having a skeptical eye? And sadly, very few journalists have

00:17:16.700 made that flip despite five years of being misled and looked foolish. I mean, the front pages of the 0.85

00:17:21.620 New York Times and the Washington Post from the era of Donald Trump will be an embarrassment to

00:17:26.220 the institution of journalism for decades to come. They wrote false stories about a president

00:17:31.940 repeatedly and only later, years later, corrected. And then the same people who made him do that or

00:17:37.560 tricked him into doing that did it again on Ukraine and did it again on impeachment, did it again on

00:17:42.420 January 6th? At some point, journalists have an obligation to say, you know what, I need to be

00:17:47.380 more skeptical. I'm not going with this. I'm not giving him primetime television until I can figure

00:17:52.660 out if they're telling the American people the truth. That's the moment of reckoning I think our

00:17:56.760 profession faces right now. Journalism has much to answer for corporate journalism in this country.

00:18:03.400 So do some of the contributors to various networks. And in particular, I'm going to select

00:18:09.700 Andrew McCarthy, former federal prosecutor, again on Fox on Trump. His reaction to Cassidy Hutchison's

00:18:21.040 testimony. Here is a former federal prosecutor who has suddenly a very conventional, I'll put it that

00:18:31.800 way, conventional perspective on Fox. Here he is.

00:18:37.360 In the White House. I must say, watching this, a couple of things. First of all, it's devastating

00:18:44.420 testimony. And having been one of us who stressed a number of times that, you know, the committee doesn't

00:18:53.160 have cross-examination. And as a result, you have to discount virtually everything you hear because in a normal

00:18:59.340 proceeding, you would have that. I also have to, on the other side, LaCroix, note that if this was a

00:19:05.020 grand jury proceeding, you would not get cross-examination. The grand jury would be presented

00:19:09.660 the evidence in the really the best light favorable to the prosecution. And this would be the kind of

00:19:16.680 evidence that would have a great impact on a grand jury that was considering whether to bring charges or

00:19:22.360 not. A grand jury. Uh, that was quite a, uh, and suddenly we've got a whole new ball game here for

00:19:30.880 this. Uh, well, it's a word of caution. I think, uh, when you hear what he says, and again, he's an

00:19:36.580 opinionator, so he's allowed to have an opinion. I think what I take from that, and again, I don't

00:19:41.700 know what his intention was in making those comments is there's a danger of this sort of mob

00:19:47.580 mentality that Washington has been doing the last six years. And if it can happen on plain national

00:19:54.340 television without anyone challenging it, imagine what happens behind the closed doors of a grand

00:19:59.420 jury. That this all Democrat run town has the ability to control the flow of information without

00:20:06.020 being challenged. The FBI did it against Donald Trump on Russia collusion. We now know the FBI knew

00:20:11.960 when it was opening up investigations, they knew what they were investigating was false and they still

00:20:16.980 investigate it. I think the bigger warning, and again, I don't know his intention, but I will say

00:20:21.420 this. I do share this concern that the one side, you have corporate media Democrats and the bureaucrats

00:20:28.000 all controlling the narrative in Washington. And that allows for official actions to be taken without

00:20:33.640 truth being challenged or facts being challenged. And that's why you look, look what happened to Mike

00:20:39.200 Flynn. Mike Flynn got indicted and made a deal to plead guilty to something he didn't do

00:20:44.660 because the environment in Washington gave him very little chance of winning. And I think if that's

00:20:50.840 what Andrew McCarthy is saying, I would agree that that's a dangerous moment, that we live in a

00:20:56.120 one-sided town where facts can't balance the picture. But if he's just trying to say, geez,

00:21:00.960 I hope the president gets indicted, I don't think there's any room for that on television now.

00:21:05.660 There's not a basis for an indictment against the president right now, certainly not in the

00:21:09.260 factual record that the January 6th committee has put out. Well, what he did say is to me,

00:21:18.900 it's unimaginable for a former federal prosecutor to laud the process of a grand jury investigation

00:21:27.600 against a hearing by a partisan committee in public. The whole point of a grand jury investigation

00:21:37.520 is to come to a charge, is it not? It is. Not to be also the jury that stands to determine one's

00:21:44.600 guilt or innocence. It's really quite a different thing. But for him now suddenly to accept

00:21:49.900 the same dicta that surrounds a grand jury investigation for a public hearing assassinating,

00:21:57.300 figuratively speaking, assassinating again a president of the United States. It's appalling to me,

00:22:05.940 John. I can't tell you how far these people have fallen. And for them to all sort of convene free

00:22:16.500 floating in the heady atmospherics of media. And suddenly they coalesce around one person,

00:22:24.520 and that person is Donald Trump. And they are going to savage him no matter what.

00:22:30.580 And it's appalling. It's that same mob mentality, that same mob mentality that misled the American

00:22:37.100 voters in the fall of 2020. Because the mob, which began with 51 so-called national security

00:22:43.040 experts, and then the media, then the Twitter censors, and the Facebook centers, and then Joe

00:22:47.240 Biden himself lying to the American people, they censored, they successfully kept from the American

00:22:52.440 people the evidence on Hunter Biden's wrongdoing on that laptop. This mob mentality is what I think

00:22:58.980 has taken over Washington for the last six years. And it suffocates truth from coming out. It

00:23:04.040 misleads the American people. And it allows for official things to happen that should not happen

00:23:09.240 in an earlier histories of America would not have happened. Mike Flynn would not have been died in

00:23:14.240 an earlier era, the 1980s or the 1970s. That FBI investigation would never have been allowed to

00:23:20.900 proceed the way it did. But we're living in this mob mentality where the alliance of bureaucrats,

00:23:26.380 Democrats, Democrats, and media are dictating actions even when the evidence doesn't warn it. And I think

00:23:31.640 that's the biggest wake-up call Americans are facing today. The America as we know it is being changed by

00:23:37.260 this mob.

00:23:38.980 It is, as you call it, a mob. It is, in my judgment, an alignment of the Marxist Dems who have

00:23:46.440 taken over the Democrat Party, who have taken over the permanent bureaucracy, who have taken over

00:23:53.660 corporate media. The left controls the wealth, the government, and one party in its entirety,

00:24:02.920 and part of the other, the rhinos of the Republican Party. Truth hasn't much of a chance against that. 0.51

00:24:11.180 That consolidated a ray of the largest, wealthiest, and most powerful interests in the country, does it?

00:24:20.180 No, it doesn't. You said it perfectly. It's so powerful that someone as important and as

00:24:26.060 accomplished as a Mike Flynn would plead guilty rather than continue to fight the mob because he

00:24:31.440 got drained of all of his resources. You know, one of the things you see the Democrats exercise right

00:24:36.560 now is a tactic called lawfare, which is you can destroy someone even if they turn out to be

00:24:42.340 innocent by draining their money, draining their resources, draining their reputation.

00:24:47.260 And the weaponization of the law by the FBI, by the intelligence community, by Democrats has drained

00:24:55.080 the reputations and the bank accounts of truly innocent people. And that is the greatest danger of

00:25:00.960 this tactic, political tactic that we now call lawfare. Americans have to understand if it can happen to,

00:25:06.540 a Mike Flynn one day or Donald Trump one day, it could happen to them to the next. What separated us

00:25:11.540 for years from all the banana republics was our resistance of that type of misuse of government 0.53

00:25:16.800 power, the crushing power of the state. But this group, this generation of journalists, bureaucrats,

00:25:22.440 prosecutors, and Democrats don't seem to revere those values that made our justice system so unique.

00:25:29.500 The ends justify the means and the ends are often political, not legal. And I fear that's where our

00:25:34.780 country is hurtling toward an anarchy in what used to be one of the greatest justice systems in America,

00:25:41.240 in the world, excuse me.

00:25:42.860 And the matter is still there. It's hearsay. It's all out of the, all of this disinformation,

00:25:51.700 the lies, the corrupt, but also compelling, according to some media types, very compelling. Most importantly,

00:26:02.340 it's compelling. They're lies. They're vicious lies. And they are just simply out there in the atmospherics,

00:26:12.620 as I said, and they can't come back, unlike a grand jury whose proceedings are kept secret,

00:26:20.100 waiting for a public trial where you do have both sides. It's, it's, it's a savage and intended

00:26:27.280 result. By the way, the secret service, you were talking about your sources, the secret service in

00:26:33.460 this. How in the world have they not responded publicly to this point?

00:26:38.720 Yeah. Well, I think they're trying to do it the way they often do it. They never talk, you know,

00:26:42.440 they, they, they pride themselves on not talking about the people they protect, but they have sent

00:26:46.780 giant fireworks into the sky saying, Hey, this isn't true. And at some point, I assume that, uh,

00:26:53.000 either Republicans will get a letter. Think about how long it took for the Capitol police to respond

00:26:58.120 out of fear that they might get punished by the Democrats. It took them six weeks to write a letter

00:27:03.280 to tell us that Barry Lautimer did not run a reconnaissance mission on behalf of those who

00:27:08.400 assaulted the Capitol. Six weeks. It took the police to write that letter and to get the truth out. Why?

00:27:13.720 Because that mob mentality will suck them up just like they'll suck up the, uh, the secret service. 0.85

00:27:19.000 And, and, and I think institutions that used to feel comfortable speaking out the truth saying, Hey,

00:27:24.520 we're the secret service. They now see the mob mentality and they're going to wait,

00:27:28.120 to be asked in an official capacity, but they have sent up giant flares. It was not hard yesterday

00:27:33.100 to get confirmation from secret service sources that this incident had not happened too bad.

00:27:39.460 The committee didn't take the time to go do that before they foisted that story on the American

00:27:43.520 public. Of course, that was exactly their intent. Exactly. And, uh, no one should, should doubt,

00:27:50.080 uh, it at all. Uh, let me, let me say this. If the Republicans were to hold a quick hearing

00:27:56.960 and had the power to select one, one witness to subpoena and to bring before it with cameras

00:28:04.700 rolling, what would you think if I suggested they do do this? They select William Barr,

00:28:11.360 former attorney general, have him explain why knowing all that he did about Hunter Biden,

00:28:19.620 about Joe Biden. And by the way, all of this, all of the intelligence services had to know that

00:28:25.160 Hunter Biden was involved with the intelligence agencies. Yes. Uh, so, and having listened to

00:28:34.000 the vice, former vice president lie in the second debate, uh, about everything about Russian

00:28:40.820 disinformation, about the laptop, about the corruption of the family, he chose not to intervene 0.88

00:28:46.080 and explain how that was not an intervention in behalf of a lying, corrupt, uh, former vice president 0.81

00:28:54.400 and his family. Why would we not have that man stand up as a witness and explain how he changed

00:29:01.840 history? We can forget about all the election, uh, fraud and ballot trafficking and Zucker box.

00:29:09.780 Uh, but that one man changed the outcome of that election. Do you agree? Yeah, listen, I was one of

00:29:16.240 the reporters that had been told in 2019 and again in 2020 that they were, the FBI was investigating, uh,

00:29:22.880 Hunter Biden. And on both occasions, the Trump justice department, once under attorney general

00:29:28.100 sessions and once under attorney general Barr flatly denied it saying it wasn't true. It turns out I was

00:29:33.980 right now when your reporter and the head of the agency says it isn't true. Well, you know, then you, you have to

00:29:38.740 go back to the drawing board, but, uh, yeah, listen, there's a great question here. Does omission, does

00:29:45.000 silence become complicity? And I think that, uh, you see now with the, in the aftermath of 2020,

00:29:52.140 how dangerous it was that the justice department couldn't or chose not to tell the American people,

00:29:58.420 they knew that there was a potentially compromised, um, uh, president and the justice department didn't

00:30:03.900 even have to confirm the, uh, nature of the criminal investigation. There were many other things

00:30:09.700 the justice department could have done to signal that they had concerns about Hunter Biden's behavior

00:30:15.440 because it had been going on for two years. And, um, history will look back at this moment as one of

00:30:21.040 the great, uh, insults to the American public that they were forced to vote for a vice president soon to

00:30:27.260 be president who had this compromising issue in his family. And they were told not to believe it. I think

00:30:33.660 of that moment, I, at least John Radcliffe went out and challenged the laptop story saying it's not

00:30:38.360 Russian disinformation, but the justice department was silent, even though they knew the laptop was

00:30:43.760 in their possession and it was true. I think this is one instance, John, if I may, where we don't have

00:30:49.540 to, to go broader wide. We have one man, Liam Barr, the attorney general who acknowledged that he knew

00:30:57.600 all of this and he chose not to speak. And he is the chief law enforcement officer.

00:31:03.660 The chief officer of the country, the chief, the chief officer of our legal system and prosecution

00:31:11.640 who had an abject, absolute responsibility to tell the American people the truth in anything he did.

00:31:19.220 Not a matter of omission, not a matter of, uh, uh, of action. It is simply a basic fundamental

00:31:27.080 responsibility to tell the American people the truth and where they're not being told the truth

00:31:32.400 to raise his hand and point his finger vividly, immediately and say, liar.

00:31:40.300 His own contradiction. That's who Joe Biden is. You, you, there's something that I was thinking 0.95

00:31:45.120 about recently about this, Lou, and I think you're really, this is really a great line of argument.

00:31:49.040 His own behavior in September of 2020, uh, undercuts his claim that I didn't want to interfere in the

00:31:56.720 election. In September, 2020, the justice department was still declassifying documents

00:32:01.000 about Donald Trump and the Russia case, which implicated vice president Joe Biden, president

00:32:06.120 Biden, uh, by president Obama. He had no problem with that part, but then he couldn't talk about

00:32:10.540 Hunter Biden. It's a head scratcher as to why he picked, picked and chose what he was going to tell

00:32:16.460 the American people. And he didn't. And I think at some point, uh, the American public probably needs

00:32:21.380 to pressure the justice department to change these roles so that things that affect elections can be

00:32:26.440 more clearly transparent to us. So we can go in with eyes wide open when we vote. I think that history

00:32:32.040 will look back at this time as one where we dropped the ball, that word, Attorney General Barr and others

00:32:36.440 dropped the ball. Yeah. I, I, I admire the, the room, the latitude that you're giving him.

00:32:42.640 Uh, the fact of the matter is this man had a responsibility, an obligation as the chief law

00:32:48.340 enforcement officer of the land. Uh, he had an obligation, just a moral obligation, not to put a

00:32:55.500 person with that level of corruption in his family, uh, the exposure he had to, uh, you know, to enemies

00:33:04.240 of the Republic. Uh, and, and, and actually he is the one who pointed out, he knew the truth

00:33:10.500 and he lied by not speaking the truth. Uh, it, and changed history. Uh, don't you agree?

00:33:18.700 It definitely changed history. The, the laptop story and the failure to acknowledge that Hunter

00:33:23.820 Biden was under criminal investigation for two full years before the election, uh, is, uh, is going to

00:33:29.760 be something that forever will have changed an election. There will always be that asterisk in the

00:33:33.260 2020 election. And there's another question. We are now in nearly the summer of 2022 or four years

00:33:39.700 nearly from the start of the Hunter Biden investigation. Why does it take four years to

00:33:43.800 make a decision on the criminality of Joe Biden's son, but it took less than months to make decisions

00:33:49.040 about Trump people, January six people, the system of justice seems to grind to a halt to the advantage

00:33:54.660 of Democrats and liberals. And I think that's another piece of the system. There's no reason a tax case

00:34:00.040 should take four years. It, they could have easily gotten this done and indicted by 2020. There's a

00:34:05.120 great mystery why it takes four years to figure this out. Can I solve a mystery for you?

00:34:09.280 Please do.

00:34:10.080 This is, this is my, my moment to play Sherlock Holmes. I believe it's a clear statement

00:34:18.040 that Bill Barr is a creature of the deep state, uh, that the deep state is aligned inextricably,

00:34:26.900 uh, absolutely with the Marxist Dem party and the Democrat party that it controls. Uh, I think it is

00:34:36.840 that straightforward. And those are, those are very disheartening things to think about. And to,

00:34:42.200 to, to the, we have to do something to fix the system so that Americans trust elections, trust

00:34:47.740 their justice department, trust their FBI. Uh, and the current leaders in this town show no will to do

00:34:53.580 that. And I say that of Republicans and Democrats alike, there are very few people in this town.

00:34:58.320 They'll all tell you behind closed doors, what's wrong with the town. Very few of them have the courage

00:35:02.680 to fix it. And that is unlike other generations of Americans who always stepped to the, to the plate

00:35:07.940 to, to do the right thing. We have to get leaders willing to do the right thing in this next round

00:35:12.520 of elections.

00:35:13.060 We always give our guests, John, as you know, the last word, I, if I may, I'd, I'd like you to address

00:35:19.760 where you think this, uh, how you think this January 6th committee, uh, concludes, uh, in this moment

00:35:26.780 for your concluding thoughts.

00:35:28.140 I think in most Americans minds, it's already concluded. They stopped tuning in a long time ago.

00:35:32.360 Elites are watching it. MSNBC crowd is watching it. Most Americans are trying to figure out whether

00:35:37.220 they're going to be able to fill their gas tank or the grocery cart next week. They long since tuned this out.

00:35:41.620 They figured out what happened. I think the great thing that is going to come of these hearings is

00:35:46.500 Democrats will have been allowing Donald Trump in their head for so long, rent free, that they blow

00:35:52.300 this election, that they are not, they fail to focus on what Americans sent them to Washington to fix.

00:35:58.080 And in November, they're going to pay a dear price because they still have that vendetta against

00:36:02.760 Donald Trump, who, by the way, hasn't been in office for 18 months and they're not doing the

00:36:06.620 people's business. I think the reckoning comes in November.

00:36:09.700 From your lips to God's ears, John Solomon is always a great discussion. Thank you so much

00:36:17.500 for being with us here. Uh, we recommend just the news.com to you highly, uh, and, uh, often.

00:36:25.720 Thank you, sir. Always an honor to be on your show.

00:36:28.180 John Solomon, founder, CEO of just the news.com. Thank you. God bless you, John.

00:36:34.320 You too, Lou. Thanks everybody for being with us. We'll have with us tomorrow, the attorney general

00:36:40.060 of the great state of Missouri, Eric Smith, and we'll be taking up the Supreme court decisions,

00:36:47.080 the left-wing prosecutors who don't prosecute that is, and much more. Please join us until then.

00:36:54.200 God bless you, and God bless America.
