00:08:10.420This is something Kevin McCarthy emphasized.
00:08:13.380If what he is saying is true, then both the attorney general and the president of the United States are flat out lying because it is completely inconsistent.
00:08:24.320It's possible that that the whistleblower is lying.
00:08:29.980But I'll tell you what, there's a second whistleblower.
00:08:33.120There's a second whistleblower who who from the IRS who came forward, who stayed anonymous.
00:09:07.040I'd like to say one more thing regarding this topic of sexuality, especially since it's the start of Pride Month.
00:09:14.200But people have said that I'm gay and people have said because I'm gay and that I'm working on the case agent in this investigation that I must be a far left liberal perfectly placed to fit some agenda.
00:09:26.200This was the stuff that was on social media regarding me.
00:09:29.480I can tell you that I am none of these things.
00:09:31.860I'm a career government employee, and I've always strived to not let politics enter my frame of mind when working cases.
00:09:40.380I've also tried to stay so nonpolitical that in the last presidential election I voted, but I decided to not vote for the presidential candidate because I didn't want to be asked that question in a court proceeding in the future.
00:09:55.500And I didn't want to show any potential bias.
00:11:05.300I'm excited to tell you about a company that I trust, and that is Augusta Precious Metals.
00:11:09.620They are different because they will even tell you if a gold IRA isn't your answer.
00:11:14.320They give you the facts about what's going on and how it can help you protect your dollars.
00:11:20.520Look, it's so important, whether you're in retirement or close to retirement, that you protect what you say because there's no time to make up losses.
00:11:29.100So if you want a company that you can sit down with, do a one on one web conference with and talk to them about diversifying and protecting your assets.
00:11:38.480You've probably seen what's happened in your 401k or your IRA.
00:11:42.760If you're ready to protect your dollars, then call Augusta Precious Metals.
00:11:48.220Not only will they send you the free guide on gold, but they'll do the one on one conference with you as well for free.
00:12:09.520Senator, I want to go through that list you just mentioned because it's so important that people understand these allegations and what they're accusing.
00:12:16.780Not only those under Garland, but the cover up with the Bidens clearly have to be involved in this.
00:12:24.820Here's how the House Ways and Means Committee described the evidence.
00:12:28.300They said, quote, whistleblowers describe how the Biden Justice Department intervened and overstepped in a campaign to protect the son of Joe Biden by delaying, divulging and denying an ongoing investigation into Hunter Biden's alleged tax crimes.
00:12:42.160The testimony shows tactics used by the Justice Department to delay the investigation long enough to reach the statute of limitations.
00:12:51.180Evidence they divulged sensitive actions by the investigative team to Biden's attorneys and denied requests by the U.S. attorney to bring charges against Biden.
00:13:02.340House Ways and Means Committee continued.
00:13:04.300IRS employees who blew the whistle on this abuse were retaliated against, despite a commitment IRS Commissioner Werfel made before the Ways and Means Committee to uphold their legal protections.
00:13:15.780They were removed from this investigation after they responsibly worked through the chain of command to raise these concerns.
00:13:22.920Now, what did the whistleblowers' testimony reveal?
00:13:26.320It revealed that the IRS removed the whistleblowers from the Hunter Biden investigations, and in fact, they were punished, as Mr. Shapley was not selected for a promotion after he blew the whistle, and when he was more qualified than the candidate who was selected.
00:13:44.660And specifically, the whistleblowers stated that agents sought to perform a physical search of Joe Biden's guesthouse where Hunter Biden was staying.
00:14:00.560However, the assistant U.S. Attorney on the case, named Leslie Wolf, questioned, quote, whether the juice was worth the squeeze, and noted that, quote, optics were a driving factor in the decision on whether to execute a search warrant.
00:14:18.020She further indicated that, quote, a lot of evidence in our investigation would be found in the guesthouse of former Vice President Biden, and she concluded that, quote, there is no way we will get that approved.
00:14:38.100Now, beyond that, assistant U.S. Attorney Wolf went even further in obstructing the investigation, and Shapley noted that, quote, if there was a, quote, big guy in the transcript, Wolf was either going to directly berate you, or she was probably going to give you the silent treatment, which was one of her tactics, for a couple of weeks and talk behind your back.
00:15:05.900Now, who is this assistant U.S. Attorney Wolf?
00:15:10.480Well, her husband, Daniel, donated 14 times to Obama for America during both the 2008 and the 2012 campaigns, seven times in 2008, seven times in 2012.
00:15:45.780The contributions occurred during their marriage.
00:15:47.660And actually, assistant U.S. Attorney Wolf herself donated to ActBlue in 2020 in a donation earmarked for Senator Amy Klobuchar's Democrat presidential campaign.
00:16:00.780She also donated to Josh Shapiro, a Democrat, in his 2022 bid to become Pennsylvania governor.
00:16:07.420So you've got a prosecutor who is a Democrat donor married to another Democrat donor who's refusing search warrants because she says, quote, the juice is not worth the squeeze.
00:16:23.180And I've got to say, by the way, that's the same damn phrase the administrator at Stanford Law School said when she was siding with the mob that was heckling Judge Kyle Duncan.
00:16:34.060She says, is the juice worth the squeeze?
00:16:36.420I wonder, do leftists, is this some lingo in leftist world that they're using when they're doing something wildly improper?
00:17:01.720On December 8th, 2020, the IRS and FBI agents wanted to interview Hunter Biden in Los Angeles.
00:17:08.060Now, Hunter Biden had Secret Service protection.
00:17:12.060And so during the preparation for the Hunter interview, Assistant U.S. Attorney Wolf specifically prohibited the agents from asking about incriminating terms of previously released emails, specifically the, quote, 10 held by H for the big guy or asking any questions about, quote, dad or the big guy.
00:17:35.180So she made clear you're not allowed to ask about Joe Biden.
00:17:38.260And we are protecting if the whistleblower is what they're saying is true.
00:17:42.140She was specifically building a wall to protect Joe Biden.
00:17:46.180Now, before they embarked on the interview, the agents discovered that the night prior, on December 7th, 2020, FBI headquarters notified Secret Service headquarters and word of the plan reached Hunter Biden.
00:18:02.960So the day before the interview, FBI tips off Hunter.
00:18:06.200Hey, we're going to come by and question you tomorrow.
00:18:09.160And as a result, on December 8th, they learned that their plan to interview Hunter Biden changed in the new plan, including providing the Secret Service and Hunter Biden's with the agent's telephone numbers if they wish to interview him.
00:18:25.120Afterwards, the agents received phone calls from Biden's counsel, indicating that they were to contact Hunter through counsel.
00:18:33.220So what it means is the agents were prevented from doing what's called a knock and talk, which is showing up.
00:18:39.480And talking to Hunter Biden in a spontaneous way in which he could reveal critical information or falsehoods.
00:18:46.360Instead, the FBI gave him the heads up to prepare with counsel so that he could he could work with lawyers to make sure they knew exactly what he said.
00:18:55.660Two days later, on December 10th, agents met with prosecutors to discuss the fact that Hunter had vacated the Washington, D.C. office of Owosco and his documents went to a storage unit in Northern Virginia.
00:19:12.180The IRS prepared a search warrant to search the storage unit, but the assistant U.S. attorney Wolf again objected.
00:19:21.120The investigators pressed the issue with the U.S. attorney Weiss, who ultimately stated that, well, if the storage unit wasn't accessed for 30 days, agents could execute a search warrant on it.
00:19:33.440However, after the investigators completed their call with the U.S. attorney Weiss, they discovered that assistant U.S. attorney Wolf had contacted Biden's counsel and told them about the storage unit.
00:19:51.720In other words, if he has incriminating evidence, the Department of Justice gave his lawyers heads up in time to get rid of whatever incriminating evidence was there.
00:20:02.360That is not how you conduct a criminal investigation, calling ahead and saying, hey, here's where we'd like to search.
00:20:08.200We'll let you know what we're looking for. But but we're just giving you the heads up ahead of time in case there might be something there you don't want us to see.
00:20:16.520Canadian women are looking for more, more of themselves, their businesses, their elected leaders and the world around them.
00:20:22.760And that's why we're thrilled to introduce the Honest Talk podcast.
00:20:26.080I'm Jennifer Stewart and I'm Catherine Clark. And in this podcast, we interview Canada's most inspiring women.
00:20:32.360Entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, politicians and newsmakers, all at different stages of their journey.
00:20:38.400So if you're looking to connect, then we hope you'll join us.
00:20:41.640Listen to the Honest Talk podcast on iHeartRadio or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
00:20:47.360Well, let me let's put this into nonpolitical terms.
00:20:50.200You as a lawyer for people that maybe don't have context here and a lot of people don't have dealings with the FBI or with investigators in their entire life.
00:21:01.560Does any other American I'm talking rich, poor, black, white, Republican, Democrat or anywhere in between, do they get tips normally from the FBI calling you saying, hey, we're going to come over and maybe look at something tomorrow or in the next couple of days or the next 30 days?
00:21:23.340Whatever it may be. Maybe people say, well, that may happen to other people.
00:21:27.880We don't know if that's necessarily just a perk of being the last name Biden.
00:21:32.060How how abnormal is it, Senator, for that to happen to anyone in this country?
00:21:37.300It's extraordinarily weird. Look, search warrants are typically obtained in secrecy specifically to avoid the destruction of evidence.
00:21:47.160Think about it. If you're executing a search warrant on a drug dealer and you say, hey, we're going to search this warehouse tomorrow.
00:21:53.240Well, you think you're going to find any drugs there?
00:21:55.560I mean, only the stupidest criminal on Earth, if you tell them where you're going to search, will leave evidence there.
00:22:02.040And the fact that the Department of Justice gave them a heads up, hey, here's where here's where they're planning to search.
00:22:08.060That suggests possible obstruction of justice, because if you tell a witness who has evidence of a search ahead of time in order to enable that witness to destroy the evidence that constitutes obstruction of justice.
00:22:22.900So let me ask you another question, and I know the answer, but just to put it in perspective, what's the point of investigating a person for any crime if you tell them in advance to hide and destroy the evidence of the crime that we're about to investigate?
00:22:39.240Unless you're fixing that investigation to make sure purposely you find nothing.
00:22:44.980Well, they don't quite want to find nothing. Nothing. And we've talked about this on the podcast at length.
00:22:50.020With Hunter's being set up to be the patsy, to be the fall guy, so Merrick Garland can say, I indicted a Biden, I indicted a Trump, I'm very even-handed, now let's go after Trump with everything we got.
00:23:02.500But he's being set up to be a patsy with a very soft fall, not a day in jail, so the serious crimes, nope, don't look at it, and especially, especially, especially, do nothing that implicates Joe Biden.
00:23:16.100And so DOJ, assuming these allegations are correct, walls off Joe Biden, says nothing about the big guy.
00:23:23.400But it's not just protecting Joe Biden, they're also making sure that Hunter Biden avoids the most serious consequences.
00:23:30.100So, for example, U.S. Attorney Weiss, according to the allegations from the whistleblower, attempted to bring tax charges against Hunter Biden in the District of Columbia for alleged misconduct in 2014 and 2015.
00:23:46.740And by the way, that included $400,000 in Burisma-derived income he never reported, Burisma being the Ukrainian natural gas company that is also alleged to have made a $5 million bribe to Joe Biden, the dad.
00:24:03.040U.S. Attorney Weiss wanted to bring the case in D.C. around March of 2022, but he was denied.
00:24:12.100U.S. Attorney Weiss sought special counsel status from DOJ in spring of 2022, and he was denied.
00:24:19.540And he also attempted to bring charges in the Central District of California in the fall of 2022, which was denied in January 2023.
00:24:31.540It matters because the District of Columbia in California, D.C. was the sole venue for Hunter's 2014 through 2015 tax crimes, and California was the sole venue for the 2016 through 2019 tax crimes.
00:24:49.700And whistleblower number two, who would be the gay Democrat who's married to another man, maintains that venue was not proper in Delaware for any of these tax charges.
00:25:01.560So what happened is the most potentially serious tax charges.
00:25:06.860And we're talking about millions of dollars in tax evasion.
00:25:11.540According to this allegation, DOJ prevented those charges from being filed until after the statute of limitations passed, until after the period at which Hunter Biden risked real jail time.
00:25:27.060That also means that when you and when others have talked to Merrick Garland under oath at Congress, that he would have had to have been willfully and purposely lying to you.
00:25:43.300So what does that mean, going back to the possibility, Kevin McCarthy talking about this from an impeachment standpoint, and how would that actually work?
00:25:52.780And before you answer that, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
00:25:54.700If you're sick and tired of giving your money to woke companies, then you need to check out Patriot Mobile.
00:26:01.940They are the only conservative Christian cell phone provider in the nation.
00:26:06.940Now, they give you dependable service, and that matters because for years, big mobile companies have been dumping millions into leftist causes, including Planned Parenthood.
00:26:16.960Yeah, many of you have been paying your bill every month, thinking you're getting cell phone service, and in reality, you're getting a woke agenda that's fighting against your beliefs.
00:26:26.860Patriot Mobile is the only conservative Christian wireless provider that offers you nationwide coverage on all three major networks, so you get the best possible service in your area without the woke propaganda pushed by the left.
00:26:40.440Now, when you switch, every time you pay your bill at no extra charge to you, your dollars will go to support free speech and religious freedom, the sanctity of life and protecting life, and even helping with adoptions.
00:26:52.700You'll also be supporting the Second Amendment, or military, or veterans, or first responders, just to name a few.
00:26:59.480Check out Patriot Mobile and make the switch.
00:27:15.680878-PATRIOT, or PatriotMobile.com slash verdict.
00:27:20.300Senator, I want to go back, and we played Kevin McCarthy earlier, talking about if the IRS whistleblower's allegations are true, we will start impeachment inquiries on the AG.
00:27:31.920He says, I think it was by July 6th, if I'm not mistaken.
00:27:35.160Yeah, I lay out very clearly by July 6th, quote,
00:27:39.140because the allegations from the IRS, because the whistleblowers and the DOJ or Garland, what he is saying and what David Weiss are saying privately are two different things.
00:27:47.580So talk and walk us through what happens next when it comes to Garland, and is his job really in jeopardy here?
00:27:56.100I think it's in very serious jeopardy, and I think he's in real jeopardy of criminal prosecution.
00:28:01.880If these allegations are correct, I believe the attorney general likely committed at least one, if not multiple, felonies.
00:28:10.200The attorney general flat out said, under oath, that there was no political interference in this investigation.
00:28:16.220The attorney general has also said that David Weiss could pursue whatever facts he saw fit and could bring whatever case he wanted.
00:28:23.740If these whistleblowers are correct, that David Weiss wanted to bring a case in D.C. and was denied, wanted to bring a case in Central District, California, and was denied.
00:28:33.060If the allegations are correct that the Department of Justice repeatedly blocked search warrants and tipped off Hunter Biden to search warrants that were being executed.
00:28:42.620All of that means that what Merrick Garland said was flat out false and that people reporting to Merrick Garland, very possibly at his direction, that has not yet been determined, were obstructing justice.
00:28:58.760But look, the most damning element of these IRS whistleblower testimonies is what was uncovered during an electronic search, which is a July 30th, 2017 text exchange from the encrypted messaging service WhatsApp.
00:29:17.780And it was between Hunter Biden and Henry Zhao, who is a Chinese national, who is an executive of CEFC China Energy, and a communist party affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party of the government.
00:29:33.300We talked about this WhatsApp quite a bit on Monday's pod, but I want to read it again because it is central, is the single most important element of this testimony.
00:29:43.460And by the way, before you read it, I want everybody to count something, count how many times in this text message that Hunter Biden invokes his father sitting next to me, he's next to me, count how many times, because it's clear that this shows what we've all suspected, that Hunter Biden is nothing more than a bag man and all the real juice is coming from the big guy.
00:30:09.200So here's the WhatsApp from Hunter, quote, I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand, that's two, why the commitment made has not been fulfilled.
00:30:22.520Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand.
00:30:29.740And Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me, that's three, and every person he knows, that's four, and my ability to forever hold a grudge,
00:30:48.460that you will regret not following my direction, I am sitting here, waiting for the call, with my father, that's five.
00:31:05.840Yeah, it's, it's, I'm running this business, and the kingpin, the godfather, is sitting next to me, and five times you know who's really running the business.
00:31:15.840Now, there are only a handful of possible responses that Hunter and Joe Biden could put to exonerate themselves.
00:31:24.480One, they could say, this is false, that this message was never sent, it's fraudulent.
00:31:55.420Instead, well, here, look at, listen to what, number one, listen to what Joe Biden said when he was asked whether he was lying when he said he never discussed business dealings with his son, Hunter.
00:32:50.440And by the way, it's not just Joe Biden that is saying, no, piss off.
00:32:54.620Listen to what the White House press spokesperson said when confronted about the very clear conflicts between what the Department of Justice has said and what the IRS whistleblowers have said.
00:33:06.860On last week, does the White House believe Attorney General Garland committed perjury when he testified under that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss could bring charges outside of his district?
