00:01:14.920 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show and great to have you
00:01:22.640 with us. We're 365 days from what will be, in my opinion, the most important day in modern
00:01:29.780 American history. 365 days from Election Day 2024, a day that will, in my view, determine
00:01:38.540 whether our constitutional republic survives. The presumptive Republican nominee, Donald Trump,
00:01:44.900 faces off against the incumbent President Joe Biden. President Trump has a convincing lead in
00:01:51.440 the national polls against Biden, a huge lead over Biden in the battleground states. And here's how
00:01:58.040 strong President Trump is running in those battleground states in a New York Times poll
00:02:03.420 just out. Nevada, Trump leading Biden by 10 points. Georgia, leading by 6 points. Arizona,
00:02:13.120 Trump leading by 5 points. Michigan, Trump leading by 5 points again. And in Pennsylvania, Trump leading
00:02:19.940 by 4 points. And lastly, in Wisconsin, President Trump is trailing Biden by only 2 points inside the
00:02:28.100 margin of error. Top Dem strategist and former Obama advisor David Axelrod reacting to these latest polls
00:02:36.660 by calling for Biden to abandon his dreams of a second term. Axelrod tweeted, quote,
00:02:43.000 The greatest concern is that his biggest liability is the one thing he can't change. Among all the
00:02:50.100 unpredictables, there is one thing that is sure. The age arrow only points in one direction. Only Joe
00:02:57.480 Biden can make this decision. If he continues to run, he will be the nominee of the Democratic Party.
00:03:04.380 What he needs to decide is whether that is wise, whether it's in his best interest or the country's.
00:03:10.980 The Marxists who are running the Democrat Party are desperate now. This latest polling only adding
00:03:18.320 to their desperation and further motivating their interference with this election as they try to
00:03:24.720 stop President Trump any way they can. Yesterday, President Trump was in a New York courtroom on the
00:03:31.560 witness stand testifying before Marxist M. Judge Arthur Ingeron and George Soros backed Attorney General
00:03:39.060 Letitia James watching over it all. Trump took the stand in the state's $250 million lawsuit against the
00:03:47.880 Trump Organization, where they're also seeking to bar President Trump from ever doing business in New York
00:03:54.000 again. The Marxist Dem hack judge has already ruled just based on his pure hatred of Trump that he's guilty.
00:04:02.100 This headline from the Daily Mail says it all on how the day in court went.
00:04:07.880 Quote,
00:04:08.680 Trump attorney Alina Habba tears in to the unhinged New York fraud trial judge and accuses him of trying
00:04:16.520 to silence the ex-president. Says she won't tolerate his behavior after he went red in the face and
00:04:23.460 slammed the table and told her to sit down.
00:04:26.780 Wow. Here is that attorney Alina Habba on the corrupt conduct of this judge in court.
00:04:35.560 Coming from the judge who has already predetermined that my client committed fraud before we even walked
00:04:43.040 into this courtroom. I'm not here to hear what he has to say. Then why exactly am I being paid as an attorney and
00:04:53.940 why exactly are taxpayer dollars being used in this courtroom? The answer is very clear because Miss
00:05:01.780 James wants to stand right here like she did this morning and call my client a liar, call the company
00:05:08.920 fraudulent and make a name for herself. She said this morning that the numbers don't lie and they won't
00:05:18.300 lie in this case. Well, Miss James, I have a message for you. The numbers didn't lie when you ran for
00:05:23.620 governor and that's why you dropped out. And the numbers don't lie when President Trump runs for office
00:05:30.220 in 2024. And those numbers are loud and clear. This country is falling apart. And if we don't stop
00:05:39.080 corruption in courtrooms where attorneys are gagged, where attorneys are not allowed to say what they
00:05:47.040 need to say to protect their clients' interests, it doesn't matter what your politics are. Everyone
00:05:52.420 has a right in this country to get up and put a defense. I don't care who you are. You have a right
00:06:00.320 to hire a lawyer who can put objections on the record. You have a right to hire a lawyer who can
00:06:05.060 stand up and say something when they see something wrong. But I was told to sit down today.
00:06:11.760 I was yelled at and I've had a judge who is unhinged slamming a table. Let me be very clear.
00:06:18.880 I don't tolerate that in my life. I'm not going to tolerate it here. Alina Habba fired up as she
00:06:24.660 should be defending President Trump against these scurrilous charges. Trump's other attorney,
00:06:30.160 Chris Keist, says the case should be all wrapped up by the 15th of December. While President Trump is
00:06:36.760 battling the Marxist-dimmed persecution on so many fronts, Joe Biden and his crime family are doing
00:06:42.780 all they can to dodge prosecution at all. Hunter Biden's special counsel, David Weiss, in a closed-door
00:06:50.100 transcribed interview today with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan and the full committee,
00:06:56.420 and he will be forced to answer difficult questions on why he has done all he could, all in his power,
00:07:03.460 to protect the Biden crime family regardless of the mounting evidence and obvious crimes.
00:07:10.600 Our guest today is the man leading that investigation, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a
00:07:16.060 great American, Congressman Jim Jordan. Mr. Chairman, great to have you with us. Let's, if we may, begin
00:07:22.300 with all that you expect from the U.S. Attorney and Special Counsel, David Weiss.
00:07:27.420 Well, yeah, we got him coming this week. So remember, David Weiss initially told us in a
00:07:33.820 letter to me back in June, I think it was June 7th, he said that he had ultimate authority to
00:07:39.880 determine when, where, and whether to file charges against Hunter Biden. And then 10 days later,
00:07:44.740 or excuse me, about 20 days later, he changes his story in another letter to me where he indicates
00:07:49.460 that, well, actually that wasn't quite accurate. He's limited by what he's partnering with other U.S.
00:07:54.180 attorneys. And then he further clarifies things on July 10th in a letter to Senator Graham,
00:07:58.800 where he takes a third position and says that, he said, well, you know, I don't, I haven't sought
00:08:05.560 special counsel status, but I've had discussions with the, with the Attorney General, with the
00:08:11.440 Justice Department. So three different stories in, I guess it's about 33 day time period. And as I
00:08:17.320 pointed out in the public hearing a few months back, when we had Mr. Shapley and Mr. Ziegler,
00:08:22.020 the IRS whistleblowers, I said, the White House position on this whole thing has changed multiple
00:08:26.400 times. What, what information Joe Biden had, what involvement he had with his son's business.
00:08:30.740 I said, the Justice Department's position has changed multiple times, three times in 33 days.
00:08:35.660 But the position that hasn't changed has been the whistleblowers. Their testimony has been
00:08:39.920 consistent. It has not wavered. It stood up to cross-examination from the Democrats in the,
00:08:44.060 in the, uh, oversight committee. Mr. Ziegler, and every witness we've deposed,
00:08:48.160 we've deposed a number now in the Judiciary Committee. Uh, they've all confirmed, just
00:08:53.420 further confirmed what Mr. Shapley and Mr. Ziegler told us about how bad this investigation
00:08:57.920 by Mr. Weiss was run. So tomorrow we're going to get a chance to talk to Mr. Weiss and ask
00:09:02.740 him some pretty, uh, some pretty pointed questions.
00:09:05.220 His position has changed. The statements have changed. Uh, and across all of this, it looks
00:09:11.000 like a rigged, uh, corrupt process again, uh, on the part of the Department of Justice.
00:09:17.420 Yeah. Never forget that they tried to get the sweetheart deal past the judge. God bless Judge
00:09:21.920 Marika. She, she said no to it. She saw through it, saw something that was never been done.
00:09:26.060 Even the, even the government lawyers, when, when she asked him at the hearing,
00:09:29.540 is there any precedent for this? No, Your Honor, there isn't, was their response.
00:09:33.160 So, uh, they tried to get that. It was slow walked, according to Shapley and Ziegler,
00:09:37.060 all kinds of things, tipping off the defense council when they were looking to issue a search
00:09:41.320 warrant and search the storage unit where Hunter Biden stored much of his material from his business.
00:09:47.080 So all kinds of things that were out of the order. The thing that I think gets me the most is
00:09:51.660 the tax years, 2014, 2015, that they let the statute of limitations expire for because those were,
00:09:58.640 in my judgment, they did that because those were the tax years that dealt with the income from
00:10:03.140 Burisma. And I still think the, the, the real heart of this matter is four facts around the
00:10:09.520 Burisma issue. Hunter Biden was put on the board of Burisma fact. Number one, fact number two,
00:10:14.580 he wasn't qualified to be on the board. All he had to offer was the quote brand. According to Devin
00:10:19.220 Archer and his deposition, Hunter Biden's business partner talked about fact. Number three,
00:10:23.240 the Burisma executives asked Hunter Biden to relieve the pressure they were under from the prosecutor.
00:10:28.960 Fact number four, Joe Biden goes to Ukraine, starts the process and completes the process of getting
00:10:35.340 that prosecutor fired and uses a billion dollars of American tax money to leverage that all to happen.
00:10:41.880 Those four essential facts, I think show what was going on here. Hunter Biden was making money to get
00:10:48.340 certain, certain outcomes that, that his, that his dad, then vice president could, could influence.
00:10:53.440 And that's exactly what happened. And the final thing is the 1023 form where this confidential human
00:11:00.520 source talked about what was going on with the Biden's and Burisma, that, that information is
00:11:06.760 confirmed by the actions I just described. So, so what took place is entirely consistent with what the
00:11:11.980 confidential human source told, told the FBI. And we ultimately got to see that when we got Chris
00:11:18.420 ready to finally give us that information, you know, and as you're talking about Burisma, the White
00:11:25.260 House over the weekend, again, changing its story because the story is changing for the, for the
00:11:32.820 principal that is President Biden, who has been adamant over the course of time that he did not have a
00:11:38.340 meeting with Burisma officials that did not. And now the White House is changing. The Biden attorneys
00:11:45.420 are changing the story. And I don't know if they're keeping up with the three in your, that you're
00:11:51.520 referring to, but it's got to be at least two or three instances in terms of, of that as well.
00:11:58.260 Yeah. He said he had no involvement and we find out he had dinners with Hunter Biden's business
00:12:02.500 partners and clients. He said he made, he had no involvement yet. We found that he was in a participant
00:12:08.420 in many numerous phone calls. Devin Archer testified that it was 20 phone calls that Joe Biden was,
00:12:14.120 was a part of. So dinners, meetings, phone calls, all stuff that Joe Biden said were not,
00:12:19.540 that he wasn't involved with, that now we know that he was. So you have the false representation
00:12:24.500 coming from, from the president himself about his involvement with the company. You have that
00:12:29.700 false representations coming from his staff who've said things and then had to subsequently
00:12:33.600 change that, that, that, those things. And now of course you have these checks that Mr. Comer has,
00:12:39.240 as by subpoena and bank records has now found out these quote loan repayments,
00:12:45.160 a $200,000 from, and in one, and then a $40,000 check in another that we're, we're looking into as
00:12:52.300 well. And the investigation goes on and the evidence mounts. I have to ask you first about David Weiss,
00:13:00.640 will he be under oath? Oh yeah. Yeah. Now he's going to try to limit his answers. I think
00:13:06.280 to dealing with this whole issue of what authority he ultimately had. But we were, we're going to ask
00:13:14.220 him about that. Of course, there's some other questions that we think are important that we're
00:13:17.360 going to, we're going to press him on as well. Specifically, some of the things that we learned
00:13:21.060 from some of the other U S attorneys who we've already deposed, we've deposed the U S attorney from
00:13:25.480 the Western district of Pennsylvania. We've deposed the U S attorney from DC and the U S attorney from
00:13:30.940 the central district of California, as well as agents who were on the case, FBI agents who were
00:13:35.620 on the case, the tax, the head of the department of justice tax lawyer who was on the case. We've
00:13:41.940 talked to all of them. So we'll look at what they've said and then be able to use that as, as the basis
00:13:47.460 for questions for Mr. Weiss as well. We're talking with chairman, Jim Jordan, chairman of the house
00:13:52.560 judiciary committee. We'll be right back after this quick pause. Please stay with us.
00:14:03.660 We're back with chairman, Jim Jordan. And Mr. Chairman, the, the instance of the inquiry, the, the impeachment
00:14:13.440 inquiry, it looks like it's at a, an inflection point. Do you have a sense of when the judiciary
00:14:22.000 committee might take over the lead on impeachment of president Joe Biden?
00:14:28.700 Well, I understand from, from the start, when, when speaker McCarthy announced that we were moving
00:14:32.780 into the inquiry phase of, of, of our oversight, um, you have three committees involved. You've got
00:14:37.660 the ways and means committee who continues to deal with information brought to them by Mr. Shapley,
00:14:42.040 Mr. Ziegler, the, the IRS whistleblowers. Uh, you have the oversight committee, Mr. Comer and his
00:14:46.680 committee who are looking at the bank records of specific activity reports and following that.
00:14:51.160 And then you have our committee, which is looking at how the investigation was handled. Um,
00:14:56.460 the, you know, the, the unusual way to be kind, the, the, the, the way the investigation was handled
00:15:01.300 into Hunter Biden, um, over the last five years. So we're, we're each doing our, our, those
00:15:06.500 investigations at some point that will come together. Now, Mr. Comer, there are still a number of people
00:15:10.180 that he needs to, to bring in for interviews and depositions. I mean, you got Hunter Biden,
00:15:15.500 you got James Biden, you got, you got other business partners, Mr. Galar, Mr. Sherwin, other business
00:15:20.400 partners of Hunter Biden. You got the guy who paid Hunter Biden's taxes for goodness sake,
00:15:24.000 just out of the goodness of his heart. I'm going to pay $2 million of Hunter Biden's back taxes.
00:15:28.520 We need, I think we need to talk to that people. We got people who bought his art. So the number of
00:15:31.760 people I think that, that Mr. Comer wants to interview, and we still have, even though we've
00:15:35.880 done a lot of depositions and interviews, we still have more people we want to talk to. So we need to
00:15:41.640 move through that as quickly as possible. And then at that point, bring all the evidence together
00:15:47.920 and see if that warrants, in fact, moving to actual articles of impeachment. And that's exactly how
00:15:53.640 we're going to do it, because that's the way the Constitution requires us to do it. Unlike the way
00:15:57.380 the Democrats treated President Trump, we're doing this the way that we think is entirely consistent
00:16:02.240 with the United States Constitution. Speaking candidly and objectively, as I possibly can,
00:16:08.420 the evidence that you all have put together right now,
00:16:12.000 the stench of corruption reeks even in the swamp. And that should be, I would think that that would
00:16:21.380 be enough to begin a charge of impeachment, because you're not proving a case, but you are demonstrating
00:16:27.300 that there is, there's much here that merits an impeachment.
00:16:32.320 Yeah, and I do think that still the most compelling is what I described, those four central facts about
00:16:39.780 Burisma. When that pressure, when the Burisma executives tell Hunter Biden and his partner,
00:16:46.420 Devin Archer, we're under pressure, we need help, immediately there's a call placed to D.C.
00:16:51.160 And Devin Archer in his deposition said that call was to Joe Biden, he thought. And then five days
00:16:56.240 later, Joe Biden goes and changes the policy of our country, because the State Department,
00:17:01.640 the European Union had approved, they had said good things about the prosecutor and the change
00:17:06.780 that was happening with the prosecutor general in Ukraine. But they abruptly changed 180 degree
00:17:12.600 change. And there's even a story in the Washington Post that talks about Joe Biden made it called an
00:17:17.240 audible on the plane ride over. So what prompted him to change policy and call the audible and say,
00:17:24.120 no, we're going to require we're going to hold up the money until we get the policy outcome we want,
00:17:29.120 namely the firing of this Mr. Shokin, this prosecutor. The only thing that you can point to is the call
00:17:34.740 he got five days earlier from his from his son at the prompting of the Burisma executives.
00:17:42.120 Let me let me ask you this. How soon will we see? Will you be subpoenaing the Bidens themselves?
00:17:49.480 Yeah, yeah, that's Mr. Comer is Jamie is wants to move in that direction. Now that now that we're
00:17:56.660 beginning to get business records and bank records in, he wants to move in that direction. But I do
00:18:01.420 think it's important that you talk to all of Hunter Biden's business partners, the guy who's paid his
00:18:05.700 taxes as another one, I think that that's important to talk to some of the individuals who purchased his
00:18:10.460 art and dealt with his art. I think all those people need to be talked to just ASAP. And then you bring
00:18:17.220 in James Biden and Hunter Biden. I love Tony Bobulinski, a former business partner of the
00:18:24.040 Bidens. He issued a direct challenge to the Bidens. Why don't you come on down and we'll all
00:18:29.320 testify at the same time before the for the U.S. Congress. What did you think of that idea?
00:18:37.740 Well, I mean, look, we need to get done as soon as possible. I don't know if that would quite work,
00:18:42.440 but I like the idea of getting folks in as quickly as we can and getting information
00:18:46.020 to the American people. So as we look at all that's going on, I talked with Chairman Comer about
00:18:55.680 this as well. Do you believe that your committee is under surveillance by NSA, by the Department of
00:19:04.160 Justice and the FBI? The House Intelligence Committee has been, we know, for some time.
00:19:10.220 The outrage is there, but the facts are, too. Will there be a consequence?
00:19:18.880 Well, we actually wrote that letter a week and a half ago asking that very question. We want to
00:19:24.520 know, in light of what Senator Grassley's staff or former staffer reported that the Justice Department
00:19:31.800 was was looking at his phone records and his email records. We think it's important to know anyone
00:19:38.760 and everyone on Capitol Hill staff and or members who may have made the same thing may have happened
00:19:45.140 to them. So we're trying to find all that out. That's why we've written them. And we want to get
00:19:50.420 the answers to those those important questions, because what a chilling effect that would have on
00:19:54.920 on oversight and on the Constitution and such a violation of just fundamental liberty.
00:20:02.360 So, yeah, we want to know that and find out because we know it happened with some of Devin
00:20:07.040 Nunes's staff when he was chairing the Intel Committee several years ago. And now we know
00:20:12.120 it happened to a top staffer for Senator Grassley. We want to know if it goes any further.
00:20:16.700 Yeah. And I would just remind the audience, I mean, we can go back to John Brennan,
00:20:22.260 as director of the CIA and in the time in which he was spying on the Senate Intelligence Committee. So
00:20:28.980 it seems if they aren't spying on you, you would be one of the rare exceptions
00:20:34.820 for our intelligence agencies. Gary. Yeah. We're talking with Chairman Jim Jordan
00:20:41.700 of the Judiciary Committee. We're coming right back. Please stay with us.
00:20:45.200 We're back. We're talking with Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan. Mr. Chairman, let me ask you this,
00:20:57.120 because the politics of this is obvious and important and critical in point of fact,
00:21:03.200 as well as the process and the investigation itself. You have a new speaker, Mike Johnson.
00:21:09.540 Give us a sense of what influence that has and what it means to your committee and the other
00:21:18.580 investigating committees in terms of pursuing truth. Well, first of all, Mike Johnson is just
00:21:24.580 a good man, solid man, Christian man, the kind of guy I think you want in that position and off to a
00:21:30.260 great start. I think he's going to do good things for the country. But he comes from a background on the
00:21:36.980 Judiciary Committee, a great member on the Select Committee on the Weaponization of Government,
00:21:40.420 has just done outstanding work for us, chaired the Constitution Subcommittee, Critical Subcommittee,
00:21:44.900 protecting the rights and liberties of the American people. So Mike is a good guy. I know he understands
00:21:51.620 the importance of the investigative work, our oversight work that we do here in Congress,
00:21:55.780 and has been nothing but supportive in his time as speaker. And of course,
00:22:01.220 you know, he's the guy who's argued cases in front of the United States Supreme Court.
00:22:03.780 This is a true constitutional scholar. So we're excited about Mike's work and we know he's going
00:22:09.780 to be supportive of the work we're doing. Give us your sense of what it's going to take,
00:22:14.500 because there's obviously a faction of quote unquote moderates or rhinos within the Republican
00:22:22.500 Conference in the House. And it's clear that they're also reticent, reluctant, perhaps dug in
00:22:29.940 in opposition to impeachment of Joe Biden. Give us a sense of the politics and the way forward
00:22:36.660 with them to to move toward impeachment, if that ultimately is your judgment.
00:22:42.820 It's all about the facts and presenting the facts in a in a compelling, succinct manner so that the
00:22:50.580 American people can get it. But also, of course, our Republican colleagues. And frankly, I would
00:22:55.380 hope some Democrat colleagues. I mean, when you lay this out, we always use this comparison,
00:22:59.460 but it's so true. Imagine if if any of the Trump children were engaged in the kind of behavior
00:23:04.340 Hunter Biden was engaged in, the business dealings he was engaged in with the type of people he was
00:23:08.740 engaged in, you know, all from Romania, Russia, Ukraine, China. I mean, imagine what what that
00:23:16.260 what the outcome would be from the mainstream press are Democrats. So I think it's just about
00:23:20.420 presenting the facts in a in a in a succinct, compelling way. As we gather them and then putting
00:23:26.500 them all together and presenting that to our colleagues, that will drive everything as well
00:23:30.660 it should, because as Speaker Johnson said the other night, next to the power of declaring war,
00:23:35.620 this is this is some of the most serious power that the the House of Representatives has.
00:23:40.980 And we should view it in that in that context and be very deliberate about getting the facts on the
00:23:46.180 table. But if the facts warrant, then we should move ahead. And here we are in the 11th month of the
00:23:54.500 118th Congress. Deliberate, thorough seems to me to to be absolutely appropriate adjectives for your
00:24:05.940 investigation. Give us give us a sense. And if you can, how soon we should expect a decision on the
00:24:14.420 part of the Judiciary Committee, Oversight Ways and Means, the Weaponization Committee and moving to the
00:24:21.220 Speaker's office to go ahead with impeachment. Well, it's gonna be driven by how soon we get
00:24:27.220 these guys in. I know Chairman Comer has indicated he's going to issue subpoenas ASAP on a number of
00:24:33.380 those people I talked about that that I think are important to bring in all the business partners.
00:24:39.140 Some of the people who dealt with Hunter Biden's artwork, some of the people even with the National
00:24:42.500 Archives Association relative to the to the, you know, to the classified documents issue.
00:24:47.780 And then there are also, of course, the guy who, as I said, paid off on a Biden's tax tax bill.
00:24:53.300 And then ultimately, Hunter Biden and James Biden. So those are the ones that that are on the list
00:24:58.100 for the Oversight Committee. And then, of course, our committee, we continue to have Leslie Wolf,
00:25:01.860 the key assistant U.S. attorney in David Weiss's office, who handled most of the Hunter Biden
00:25:06.020 investigation. We want to talk to her. There are two other attorneys that we want to talk to.
00:25:09.780 And then, of course, we have David Weiss this week.
00:25:11.620 And what would you make of the Biden's efforts? Because they say they're not going to turn over to
00:25:19.060 the Oversight Committee any of the records that the committee and Chairman Comer requested the
00:25:26.260 principally loan documents. It looks like they're trying to run out the clock.
00:25:32.900 At what point would you say they'd succeeded if the investigation goes to that undefined point?
00:25:38.580 Right. Well, I mean, you know, we'll see. But in past impeachment inquiries,
00:25:44.740 when you had the administration not comply with with records that, frankly, the Congress
00:25:52.340 should have had access to, in some cases that became the basis for an obstruction charge.
00:25:57.540 I'm not saying we're going to go there, but that's that's a that's a real, I think, real issue, real concern.
00:26:03.540 So, you know, there's there's the idea that right now the Biden family,
00:26:08.340 you know, got a lot of money. And did Joe Biden take certain actions for that to happen?
00:26:13.940 It looks like that was the case with Burisma. As I said in a committee hearing, it's a tale as old
00:26:18.820 as time. A politician takes certain actions and his family benefits financially from those actions.
00:26:25.220 That looks like what happened with with the situation with this company, Burisma,
00:26:29.780 and the actions Joe Biden took with the loan guarantee money from from the American taxpayers.
00:26:34.740 So we're going to we're going to dig into all that. But, yeah, it could be you're you're preventing
00:26:39.940 Congress from having something that's not supposed to be how this operation works.
00:26:43.380 Well, and I don't suppose that it's how the National Archives should operate either.
00:26:49.300 Turning over 14 emails from the alias batch, some 82,000 of them that they hold.
00:26:58.260 They respond arrogantly. And I think with a bit of a thumb of their nose to the to the oversight committee,
00:27:06.980 giving 14 memos up at what point does obstruction reach to federal agencies that should be cooperative
00:27:15.620 with the oversight committees? Yeah, fair question. And something that I think we'll
00:27:20.660 we'll we'll continue to explore as we as we as we gather the facts here over the next several weeks.
00:27:25.460 I'm going to if I may give you the last word here. We always give our guests the opportunity for the
00:27:33.140 last word. And so if if you would, Mr. Chairman, your concluding thoughts here today as we wrap up.
00:27:38.180 Well, I think the big thing is I think Mike Johnson's a good man and is going to do a good job
00:27:43.460 and understand the importance of oversight, the oversight that we're doing in the three committees
00:27:47.940 as part of this impeachment inquiry. Our job now is to just continue to press ahead, do it as quickly
00:27:53.380 as possible, but do it in a thorough way in a way that's consistent with the Constitution.
00:27:57.460 And that's exactly what we're going to do. Chairman Jim Jordan, as always, thanks so much
00:28:01.380 for being with us. And we appreciate your time and your and your insight. Thanks so much.
00:28:06.340 Thanks, Father. Thanks for your good work, Lou. Take care.
00:28:08.900 Chairman Jim Jordan, God bless you and Godspeed. I want to return here to Trump attorney Alina
00:28:15.140 Habba's defense of President Trump. Here is the outraged Alina Habba after President Trump testified
00:28:21.940 telling the judge and the attorney general that they went after the wrong man to be their victim
00:28:27.620 in Donald Trump. Your star witness, along with all the DAs and corrupt AGs,
00:28:32.500 need to be paying attention to what happens when you let us take the stand. When you let my client
00:28:38.980 speak the truth and the judge can tell me to sit down and he can try and shorten my client's testimony,
00:28:45.780 but it is loud and clear. They've got nothing. They've got nothing but their politics. She's
00:28:52.980 got nothing but her Soros backing, which we discovered recently. And I am sick and tired
00:28:58.260 of seeing it. Pay attention, America. Pay attention. Because when you're in court one of these days,
00:29:03.860 and you don't have a lawyer that has a microphone, and you don't have a lawyer that can go on TV,
00:29:08.100 and you've got judges gagging them, what are you going to do? We need to fix this country.
00:29:14.660 And we need to stop what is happening in this courtroom. President Trump is worth a lot more,
00:29:19.620 and she wasn't ready for it. She doesn't understand it. And before she rushed to judgment,
00:29:24.740 she should have thought about attacking somebody with over 50 years of real estate expertise who
00:29:30.180 changed single-handedly the skyline of New York City. She picked the wrong person,
00:29:35.700 and her politics will fail for it. Thanks, everybody, for being with us. Join us here
00:29:39.620 tomorrow when our guest is Cornell Law Professor William Jacobson. We'll be talking about the
00:29:44.900 Marxist-dim spread of anti-Semitism that has become the scourge that is destroying universities and
00:29:51.780 colleges all across this country. Please join us for that and more tomorrow, and join us each and
00:29:57.860 every day. Thanks, everybody. God bless you, and may God bless America.
00:30:05.700 God bless America.
