00:00:00.000 I'm Lou Dobbs with this Great America Show midday update for Wednesday, August 2nd, 2023.
00:00:06.420 President Trump indicted once again by the junkyard dog of a special counsel, Jack Smith.
00:00:11.880 The Marxist-Dim activist special counsel announcing a four-count indictment against
00:00:16.500 the former president. There were no surprises in it. Here's the ruthless jackal announcing
00:00:21.960 his indictment of the former president once again yesterday. Today, an indictment was unsealed.
00:00:28.720 Charging Donald J. Trump with conspiring to defraud the United States, conspiring to disenfranchise
00:00:37.300 voters, and conspiring and attempting to obstruct an official proceeding.
00:00:43.080 The indictment was issued by a grand jury of citizens here in the District of Columbia,
00:00:48.000 and it sets forth the crimes charged in detail. I encourage everyone to read it in full.
00:00:54.500 The attack on our nation's capital on January 6th, 2021, was an unprecedented assault on the seat of
00:01:04.680 American democracy. As described in the indictment, it was fueled by lies. Lies by the defendant,
00:01:13.520 targeted at obstructing a bedrock function of the U.S. government, the nation's process of collecting,
00:01:19.420 counting, and certifying the results of the presidential election.
00:01:26.560 The men and women of law enforcement who defended the U.S. Capitol on January 6th are heroes.
00:01:33.460 They are patriots, and they are the very best of us.
00:01:36.980 They did not just defend a building or the people sheltering in it.
00:01:41.040 They put their lives on the line to defend who we are as a country and as a people.
00:01:48.000 They defended the very institutions and principles that define the United States.
00:01:54.440 Since the attack on our Capitol, the Department of Justice has remained committed
00:01:58.260 to ensuring accountability for those criminally responsible for what happened that day.
00:02:03.420 This case is brought consistent with that commitment, and our investigation of other individuals continues.
00:02:11.940 In this case, my office will seek a speedy trial so that our evidence can be tested in court and judged by a jury of citizens.
00:02:20.380 In the meantime, I must emphasize that the indictment is only an allegation
00:02:26.180 and that the defendant must be presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
00:02:36.240 I would like to thank the members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation
00:02:39.800 who are working on this investigation with my office,
00:02:43.520 as well as the many career prosecutors and law enforcement agents from around the country
00:02:49.220 who have worked on previous January 6th investigations.
00:02:53.700 These women and men are public servants of the very highest order,
00:02:57.880 and it is a privilege to work alongside them.
00:03:00.760 President Trump is set to appear in a D.C. courtroom tomorrow
00:03:04.300 where he will plead not guilty to all charges.
00:03:07.480 The judge presiding over that case is Judge Tanya Chutkin,
00:03:12.040 an Obama appointee and Obama donor
00:03:14.660 who has handed down the most severe sentences against January 6th political prisoners.
00:03:21.020 I'm sure it will be a fair trial, aren't you?
00:03:24.560 House Republicans demand
00:03:26.120 Attorney General Merrick Garland answer for Hunter Biden's not-standard plea deal,
00:03:31.100 that is, his sweetheart deal.
00:03:33.140 The House Judiciary, Ways and Means, and Oversight Committees,
00:03:36.880 all issuing a letter to the unprincipled Attorney General this week
00:03:40.480 demanding answers as to why Hunter Biden was treated differently
00:03:44.760 than every other American in his criminal case.
00:03:48.220 Garland has maintained he played no role in the Hunter Biden case,
00:03:51.720 but we know he's lying.
00:03:53.480 We know now, after the sworn testimony of two whistleblowers,
00:03:57.780 that Garland lied through and through.
00:04:00.500 The question now is,
00:04:01.920 will the House of Representatives have the courage to do what is right
00:04:05.000 in the face of widespread corruption in the Biden White House and Biden regime?
00:04:10.480 Our guest today on The Great America Show,
00:04:12.960 Congressman Bob Good of the Freedom Caucus,
00:04:15.560 will be talking about the latest whistleblower testimony against the Bidens
00:04:19.560 and how they've retaliated against those whistleblowers.
00:04:23.900 We hope you'll join us for our talk with Congressman Bob Good today.
00:04:28.040 Please join us on The Great America Show each and every weekday.
