A glimmer of justice from the Department of Justice this week. First, the former FBI counterintelligence chief who was investigating, that is, instigating in some ways, the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, was sentenced on Friday to over 4 years for actually doing what the Marxist Dems were accusing President Trump of colluding with Russian oligarchs. The second act of justice came Friday when crooked Assistant U.S. Attorney Leslie Wolf resigned her post from the Biden DOJ.
00:14:16.900We're back now with Jim Hoft. And I want to say, Jim, I just cannot understand
00:14:21.360how gutless the Republican Party has become. I cannot understand how after they know they were
00:14:29.200spied upon, not just the Congress, but the House Intelligence Committee, the Senate Intelligence
00:14:35.200Committee over the course of time, they know what's happening. And it makes anyone suspicious
00:14:43.800if they were to do that. What do they have on those congressmen, those senators who are so eager
00:14:51.120to violate the civil rights of every single American?
00:14:54.320Yeah, that's a great question. What do they have? Maybe some of these rumors we heard from
00:14:59.420different individuals like George Santos and the former congressman from North Carolina,
00:15:07.460the young man. Maybe some of those rumors are true, but I don't know how they can just go ahead
00:15:13.620and go along with this. Certainly their voters don't approve of this. Matthew Cawthorne is the name
00:15:19.600I was looking for, the former congressman. I think a lot of people are upset about this because
00:15:27.700what we did see with Trump, and we went through those hellish years where they put the president
00:15:33.800through this complete abuse, an illegal abuse. They abused the system to spy on Trump, his family.
00:15:44.180They spied on the investigators who were looking into this from the House, Devin Nunes and his
00:15:51.400assistant, Cash Patel, at the time. So it's been abused over and over and over again.
00:15:57.560And I just have no idea how they think that this is a wise move, because what has happened,
00:16:03.840though, is it continues to be turned against Republicans. And so why would Republicans vote
00:16:09.240for something that's going to be used against them and their staff and their friends? I don't
00:16:13.600understand. I don't either. And I don't know how anyone could possibly explain it other than there
00:16:19.800has to be some something going on here, because this is inexplicable on its on its face. They know
00:16:28.300that Republicans, they talk about a which I hate the term two tier justice system, that there's one
00:16:35.520one tier for Republicans and one for Democrats. We're watching that in action, of course, with
00:16:40.900Hunter Biden. But then to just simply say, well, that's OK, FBI, Department of Justice, go ahead,
00:16:47.580bring another sledgehammer over and swing away at us. I mean, it is really irrational. And therefore,
00:16:54.120I know that there is something behind it. There is some force at work that explains this irrationality
00:17:01.620and acting against their own interest and the interest of the American people. I want to I want
00:17:09.420to talk to you about also the prospect. It looks like with this new trial, three, three defendants,
00:17:18.480January, January six defendants will be represented by one of those because the Supreme Court is going to
00:17:26.240hear whether or not this section that they use for what do they call it obstructing a government
00:17:38.260process is going to be ballot. And it looks like they think there are early indications the Supreme
00:17:46.680Court is against it. That means a few hundred Americans are going to be better off and the president
00:17:53.360as well, because half of the January six charges against him are that interfering with a with a
00:17:59.420government process. Your thoughts? Oh, I think this is great news. I think they pulled this this 1512
00:18:07.5202C rule and started throwing it at these Trump supporters after January six. It's tragic that this
00:18:16.540happened. And it's just abusive. It's landed a lot of these people in jail for a lot of extra time than they
00:18:25.040should have been. You know, we see we see how two tiered system. Maybe it's just tyranny is what we're
00:18:30.720watching. But the Republicans go to jail for several years. The Democrats who who disrupt Congress and
00:18:37.600disrupt hearings. They're out within a couple hours. And we've seen that just recently, you know, with the Hamas protests and the
00:18:45.540pro-Palestinian protests in Congress. This this is this is good news because they threw this rule based on, you know, it goes back
00:18:55.540before the 20th century. They they they pulled it out and shook it off. And they're going to start charging these people with this
00:19:04.820crime for disrupting the the proceedings that today. Several of these people were arrested or didn't even get to the Capitol till after they had
00:19:15.440already disbanded Congress. And we do know I saw a sad tweet today. This Matthew Perna, he was a man who was at January 6th, never been arrested in his life, never been in trouble with the law.
00:19:30.440And he went inside the Capitol and they and he was charged with some crimes. He paid his dues. Then they came back and said, we're going to charge you with this extra crime, this 1512. And his aunt today tweeted out that that was when he took his life because he just you know, he just couldn't take this abuse that was never ending from this government against, you know, these Trump supporters. And so a friend of mine, and I think you've spoken with him, Jake
00:19:58.440Jake Lane, who was a January 6th. He he filed this along with two others. And it looks like the Supreme Court is going to take this and look at it. And I think it it should obviously never have been used. But we will see. I think, though, it's it's really good news for some of these people who've been persecuted.
00:20:19.440I don't know how they get their lives back. I don't know how they get that time that they've spent in prison already. But I do hope that they correct this because it is complete lawlessness by the Department of Justice to use this against Trump supporters.
00:20:32.440You mentioned Jake Lane, all the hundreds of Americans that who've been become prisoners of the Marxist Dems in this country. I, I still to this day cannot imagine how it is that we got to this point, where the judges of the D.C. circuit and district, the judges, appellate judges, all of them, so, so many of them,
00:21:01.440so many of them are obviously so politically motivated, ideologically motivated. This is not a Republican Democrat thing. This is a Marxist Dem America thing. And they mean to destroy the lives of these people. This is not an accident.
00:21:18.980The prosecutors from the DOJ over, overcharging these poor people, these poor Americans, the judges over sentencing them. It's an outrage. And we'll take that up as we continue. We're talking with Jim Hoff, the Gateway Pundit. Stay with us.
00:21:36.080We're back now with Jim Hoff, and I want to say that the president has a lot going for him right now. Suddenly, the wind looks to be at his back in terms of what has happened with moving to the Supreme Court with Tanya Chutkin, the D.C.
00:21:57.580district court judge who had to pause her trial that she wanted to ramrod through because of the appeal by Jack Smith. We've got a unanimous Republican vote on the impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden.
00:22:10.920But then there are things that cause us great concern, Jim. We see a picture of Paul Ryan exiting the office of what is now the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.
00:22:25.660That is one of the most disturbing pictures that I have seen recently. It's just incredible. If all the people he could get advice from, he goes to this pretend policy walk on the budget. It's just stunning to me. Your reaction?
00:22:46.680Yeah, I think seeing Paul Ryan leave the Speaker's office is almost as scary as seeing Zelensky leave his office, President Zelensky. You know that we're going to lose either way.
00:22:59.320Yeah. But Paul Ryan, now that was a stunner. I had no idea that they were communicating, let alone having these little private wrap sessions. So that, of course, it's very concerning.
00:23:12.740And then we know that our friend Paul Ryan came out immediately after these talks, and he's bashing Trump again. You know, he just can't help himself. He's got that, you know, Trump derangement syndrome, and it's stuck on his brain, and he's calling Trump an authoritarian and all of this nonsense. So, yeah, very concerning, Lou.
00:23:37.460And the Gateway Pundit giving it your usual thorough coverage and prominence, because that's what it deserves. It is to see this interaction between Mike Johnson, all the people that he's got in that conference, in the Republican conference that he could go to, the outside sources that he could go to, resources.
00:24:03.600And to choose Paul Ryan, who is, by the way, I want to remind everybody, he is, among other things, on the Fox board. He's also with some advisory firms, as they're called, in Washington, D.C. He's bringing in lobbyist money and, quote unquote, consultant money by the bucket.
00:24:24.680This is a guy who's turned his career of mediocrity into a gold rush. And then he has the outrageous temerity to attack President Trump again. He shouldn't even be permitted to say Trump's name. He's unworthy of speaking Trump's name.
00:24:46.620And to suggest he hasn't. I mean, he's really off the rails here.
00:24:51.180Oh, yeah, absolutely. And what happened to him going back to Wisconsin? Did that ever cross his mind after all those years in Congress? Heck no. He's stuck around. He's in D.C. or New York.
00:25:03.600You know, he's making the big bucks now and lecturing all of us about Trump. The narcissist authoritarian Donald Trump. You know, I was hoping we would have heard the last of Paul Ryan after he left office.
00:25:20.140But unfortunately, that's not the case with several of these individuals. So here he is out again. And, you know, he's not just attacking Trump, but then he's praising Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. It's like, what is going on?
00:25:37.540Can you believe he would try to put them in the Congressional Hall of Fame because they went off the rails? And it's just this guy is obsessive about it. He's got some. You called it the Trump derangement syndrome. There is, without question, I think he's getting paid for, by the way, what he's saying.
00:26:02.960It's my guess that he is the mouthpiece for some people who have some other candidates. But that's just my skeptical, journalistic nature. I just can't imagine why he would suddenly sit down with Taneo and have an interview. I can't imagine why Taneo would care. Oh, wait a minute. They're part of the cycle in D.C. They're all part of the swamp. And it gives them a, you know, a talking point for the day.
00:26:30.780So I'd like to get your sense, if you will. We also saw that absolute unanimous vote by the Republican Party on the impeachment inquiry. That suggests to me that some that we have now a real prospect to see justice serve.
00:26:51.240And for this Republican conference to get its balance and to and for Mike Johnson, I hope will wake the hell up, if I may put it that way.
00:27:02.680I think this was great news. We've been waiting for it since they were sworn in and took the gavel back last January.
00:27:09.980I think Democrats would have already had this thing, this process done and over with by now.
00:27:15.160But at least they they had they took the vote. They passed the vote. It was unanimous.
00:27:20.080So I give Mike Johnson credit for that. That was a nice Christmas present before they go off for another month.
00:27:26.680So we'll see. You know, when Kevin McCarthy was there, I thought the chances of Joe Biden being impeached was about zero percent.
00:27:34.860But maybe we have maybe we have the odds have gone up under Mike Johnson.
00:27:40.660So hopefully justice will be served for for the first time in a long time.
00:27:47.200We know that what the Bidens have done, we followed that for years.
00:27:51.500You followed it for years with Burisma and Ukraine and and the Hunter laptop that was hidden.
00:27:57.900And which was full of truth and full of emails that explicitly discussed their deals, him and his dad.
00:28:06.320And then we know that Joe Biden has all these anonymous accounts, email accounts and all the, you know, business he was conducting with these accounts.
00:28:16.340Hundreds of emails flying back and forth.
00:28:19.200So maybe finally these people will be caught. I think that would be very refreshing.
00:28:24.140I think the American people, you know, and I wonder if that explains, too, why they've gone after Trump so hard with these junk charges one after another.
00:28:35.560Maybe they knew what was what was coming.
00:28:37.640But we will see. And hopefully 2024 will be a better year.
00:28:42.880And I think what you're intimating is absolutely right.
00:28:45.640I think that a good part of the the assault, what has been now an eight year persecution of Donald Trump, in large measure, was motivated by the deep state and the Marxist Dems and the Biden regime and the Obama.
00:29:20.340And and I'd like to get your thoughts here as we conclude.
00:29:24.180What did you think of Hunter Biden's performance on the grounds of the Capitol as he tried to play the part of both victim, heroic defender of his father and and and and a critic, if you will, of the House of Representatives and the Constitution that gives them the power to investigate?
00:29:47.540Well, I think we know now that Hunter Biden is not just an accomplished artist, but he's an accomplished actor.
00:30:01.260This person, their whole family, I mean, the Biden crime family, they got everyone involved.
00:30:06.200They even have women who have left the family through divorce are still getting paid.
00:30:11.580I mean, that's quite a quite a crime family.
00:30:14.520So, you know, we will see how this goes if I think it'd be nice if he got the Peter Navarro treatment, gets arrested the next time he tries to take a plane and they put him in handcuffs and bring him and sit in jail for for overnight.
00:30:31.100I'm sure it won't be his first time in jail.
00:30:33.880We documented that Hunter Biden was arrested as a teen with drugs.
00:30:37.860And I think that drug career went on for several, several decades.
00:30:42.060So I'm sure that's not his first time in jail.
