Speaker 1: Biden administration taking their hand off of our biggest ally,
Speaker 1: Israel in the Middle East. They decided to abstain instead
Speaker 1: of stand with Israel on a United Nations Security Council
Speaker 1: resolution demanding that Israel halt operations against Hamas without linking
Speaker 1: such a ceasefire to Hamas releasing the hostages that they
Speaker 1: still have from The Guardian. At the last minute on
Speaker 1: Monday morning, the US asked for an amendment adding a
Speaker 1: condemnation of Hamas for its attack on Israel on October
Speaker 1: the seventh, leading to urgent huddles of diplomats on the
Speaker 1: Chamber four, but dropped that demand when it became clear
Speaker 1: the amendment would be resisted. So, in other words, we'll
Speaker 1: throw the idea out there, but we won't really do
Speaker 1: anything with the idea if everybody else doesn't kumbai Ya
Speaker 1: behind it. We're not going to fight for it. We're
Speaker 1: not going to fight for our ally in Israel. We're
Speaker 1: not going to stand with Israel regardless of what others do.
Speaker 1: Now here's the point I want to make about what
Speaker 1: this means from American perspective. Joe Biden and the Biden
Speaker 1: administration officials are clearly now taking a policy to undermine Israel,
Speaker 1: and not only under mine Israel, but also boost Hamas
Speaker 1: and the Palestinians who have voted for Hamas to be
Speaker 1: in charge of their government. And they've been doing this
Speaker 1: not just in the last couple of weeks, They've actually
Speaker 1: been doing this since the earliest days of this administration.
Speaker 1: No one was paying attention when they were doing it.
Speaker 1: Let me explain why they suspended anti terrorism sanctions so
Speaker 1: that they could pour millions of dollars of American taxpayer
Speaker 1: money into the guy's strip as soon as he became
Speaker 1: the president, which they acknowledged would go to Hamas, And
Speaker 1: they stopped enforcing the sanctions against the Iranian regime. And
Speaker 1: what happens when you stop enforcing those old sanctions against Iran.
Speaker 1: Iran makes billions and billions of dollars that they then
Speaker 1: funneled to terrorist organizations like Hamas. Hamas doesn't exist without
Speaker 1: the Iranian regime giving it money. So the Ayatola was
Speaker 1: able to raise billions of dollars more than they would
Speaker 1: have had otherwise because of the policy of the Biden administration.
Speaker 1: And when you give them billions of dollars more, they
Speaker 1: send it directly to terrorists, including Hamas. The biggest funder
Speaker 1: of Hamas is I ran make no mistake about that.
Speaker 1: Now Biden officials called on Israel to stand down and
Speaker 1: the operations. Let me rephrase that, the Biden administration officials
Speaker 1: have called on Israel to stand down. In the opening
Speaker 1: hours of October seventh, as Amas terrorists were engaged in
Speaker 1: mass murder, including the murder and kidnapping of dozens of Americans,
Speaker 1: temporarily shamed into publicly supporting Israel as the scope of
Speaker 1: the atroses became undeniable. Remember when Hamas did what they
Speaker 1: did on October the seventh, this White House said that
Speaker 1: it was Israel who needed to show restraint. Never forget
Speaker 1: that was our initial response to October the seventh. So,
Speaker 1: now that Israel's on the verge of utterly eradicating Hamas,
Speaker 1: administration officials are reversing their support of Israel and resorting
Speaker 1: to restoring their policies of open hostility towards Israel, who.
Speaker 2: Is our ally.
Speaker 1: Now let me also say this about this UN resolution.
Speaker 1: This UN resolution is a capitulation to in a major
Speaker 1: victory for Hamas, because you just condemned not Hamas, who
Speaker 1: are still holding hostages. You condemned Israel on the public stage,
Speaker 1: even while Hamas is still holding those hostages, which by
Speaker 1: the way, include Americans. But the media doesn't want you
Speaker 1: to remember that.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you a boy. My friends at Amo Squared.
Speaker 1: They are here to help you stay stocked up on
Speaker 1: ammunition automatically. AMMO is delivered on demand or automatically when
Speaker 1: you need it, and it's stored for free when you don't.
Speaker 1: It's a budget friendly way to build a stockpile of AMMO,
Speaker 1: and it's customizable to your budget.

Speaker 1: and forget it Ammo purchasing. You get to pick your caliber,
Speaker 1: set your budget, select a shipping trigger, and that's it.
Speaker 1: AMMO builds up over time and is delivered automatically when

Speaker 1: the store shelves went empty and prices went up three four, five, six, seven, eight,

Speaker 1: including those that sell Amo could not find it.
Speaker 2: Well.

Speaker 1: stored at Amo squared and they got it all immediately

Speaker 1: in your account right now. Set it and forget at
Speaker 1: Ammo purchasing amosquared dot com, slash ben. Sign up and
Speaker 1: get your your free AMO in your account today. I
Speaker 1: want to be clear. I'm in favor of a ceasefire.
Speaker 1: I'm not in favor of a ceasefire while they're holding hostages.
Speaker 1: I'm not in favor of a ceasefire when the terrorist
Speaker 1: organization is still trying to commit a atrocities against other Jews.
Speaker 1: I'm not in favor of a ceasefire while they're still
Speaker 1: holding Americans hostage. There should be a very simple response
Speaker 1: from our American president, and that's this, we will give
Speaker 1: Israel whatever it needs to succeed and win, especially while
Speaker 1: Americans are being held hostage. And if Hamas wants a
Speaker 1: cease fire, if the people want to cease fire, if
Speaker 1: the world wants to cease fire, then they need to
Speaker 1: put pressure on Hamas, okay on Hamas to release the
Speaker 1: American hostages, and then we will become an advocate for
Speaker 1: a ceasefire. But until that happens, until the Americans that
Speaker 1: are being held hostage are released, and there are still
Speaker 1: Americans being held hostage, we are all in to hold
Speaker 1: them accountable for their actions. The other part that really
Speaker 1: irked me about what happened in this UN resolution is this,
Speaker 1: after reading it, it does not acknowledge, let alone condemn,
Speaker 1: the Atroses of October the seventh, the worst one day
Speaker 1: massacre of Jews in the world, not just in Israel,
Speaker 1: in the world the Holocaust.
Speaker 2: It included vague, vague.
Speaker 1: Pro form of language calling for a release of hostages,
Speaker 1: which is designed to be ignored by Hamas and will
Speaker 1: be ignored by them. The resolution further entrenches Hamas to
Speaker 1: be in charge in some capacity in Gaza and to
Speaker 1: be in charge over the Palestinian authority, the terror group
Speaker 1: and its iranium backers. They committed and helped train and
Speaker 1: support and aid the atrocies of October the seventh, precisely
Speaker 1: because they count on the Biden administration to pressure Israel
Speaker 1: to let Hamas win. That's why they did it under
Speaker 1: this administration and not under the Trump administration, where they
Speaker 1: knew they would be hell to pay from America. So
Speaker 1: you look at what the Biden administration just did, and
Speaker 1: what they said is not just shameful, but it also
Speaker 1: confirmed the calculation by Hamas that America is weak and
Speaker 1: America will not stand up to taking of hostages, including Americans.
Speaker 1: How many times have you seen the President come out recently,
Speaker 1: I'm talking the last couple of months in demand that
Speaker 1: the American hostages be released. How many times have you
Speaker 1: seen the President come out or the Secretary of State
Speaker 1: come out, or the UN ambassador come out and say
Speaker 1: there is no discussions of a ceasefire until the Americans
Speaker 1: are released by Hamas. When was the last time the
Speaker 1: President had a press conference sending a clear message to
Speaker 1: Hamas that there will be hell to pay for holding
Speaker 1: the American hostages this long and you better release them,
Speaker 1: and if not, we will support Israel and eradicating the
Speaker 1: world of Hamas. We haven't had that press conference either.
Speaker 1: We haven't had those words that have been said publicly. Clearly,
Speaker 1: they're not even being said privately. Because Hamas knew the
Speaker 1: Biden administration was weak, and they knew that the Biden
Speaker 1: administration was not going to stand with Israel, and they
Speaker 1: knew that they had a good chance of winning this
Speaker 1: battle because eventually the West would get tired of it
Speaker 1: and then come to their aid calling for a cease fire.
Speaker 1: What Hamas also is learning right now is that they
Speaker 1: are going in the long term, be rewarded for their
Speaker 1: holy war, for widening their violence, as long as they
Speaker 1: see that there is Americans that are mounting pressure in
Speaker 1: our government on Israel instead of on Hamas or Iran.
Speaker 1: Now you go back to words, don't ma better actions
Speaker 1: matter in this America. Abstaining is going to have a
Speaker 1: devastating cost to American national security and America's safety around
Speaker 1: the world.
Speaker 2: Forget Israel for just a.
Speaker 1: Moment, and let's just talk about the message that is
Speaker 1: being sent to the terraces that are still holding Americans
Speaker 1: hostage that we're not hearing about from this administration at all.
Speaker 1: What message does it send to other terrorists and other
Speaker 1: bad actors around the world. Did America will eventually, after
Speaker 1: X number of days, right, just kind of forget about
Speaker 1: their own American citizens and say, Okay, we're gonna jump
Speaker 1: in on the kumbai ayism of all right, hey, like
Speaker 1: there's been enough war here. Let's just all get along
Speaker 1: and we're not going to fight for the Americans to
Speaker 1: come back. Like we're basically telling Hamas you can keep
Speaker 1: the Americans, like you've had them long enough now, Like
Speaker 1: we'd rather just have peace and there be a ceasefire
Speaker 1: overall than get those Americans back. So we're not going
Speaker 1: to fight to get those Americans back. We're just gonna say,
Speaker 1: everybody just stopped shooting each other, and you guys kind
Speaker 1: of keep what you got. That's that's what this administration
Speaker 1: just did with abstaining from this vote. You just cheapened
Speaker 1: and under mind that the value of an American life
Speaker 1: everywhere in the world. I talked about this several months
Speaker 1: ago when this happened, and America was like really downplaying
Speaker 1: the actual Americans that were taken, Like when was the
Speaker 1: last time you saw pictures of the Americans that were
Speaker 1: taken on the national news.
Speaker 2: They're not talking about Have you noticed that? Like they
Speaker 2: don't want to remind you.
Speaker 1: They don't want you to know that their Americans are
Speaker 1: still being held in hostage. They don't want you to
Speaker 1: have faces or names of who they actually are. The
Speaker 1: media is making sure that these Americans just kind of
Speaker 1: disappear and just kind of go away.
Speaker 2: Now, I have a serious question for this administration.
Speaker 1: If there is a ceasefire, what are you going to
Speaker 1: do with the Americans are being held houstage? Are you
Speaker 1: going to just say they're now property of Hamas that
Speaker 1: you can keep them forever? Because if there's anything you
Speaker 1: know about Hamas, and you should have figured this out
Speaker 1: in October seventh, Like, they don't play by civilized rules,
Speaker 1: Like if there's a ceasefire, they're not just going to
Speaker 1: hand you back a bunch of citizens they took. That's
Speaker 1: not what they do. They're barbarians. They're not civilized individuals.
Speaker 1: They're soulless. They killed children and stabbed them in their
Speaker 1: cribs and beheaded them and took pictures and celebrate them
Speaker 1: and cook them in ovens. They killed and tortured handicapped
Speaker 1: senior citizens. They took hostage eighty and ninety year olds
Speaker 1: for goodness sakes, like they're not normal people, they're barbarians.
Speaker 1: If a ceasefire came down today, my question for Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is, well, what are you going to do to
Speaker 1: get the Americans back? Because the simple line here would
Speaker 1: have been, Okay, number one, we're not upstaining from this vote.
Speaker 1: We're gonna stand with Israel and we're going to say
Speaker 1: keep pounding Hamas until Hamas realizes that We're never going
Speaker 1: to stop pounding them and supporting the destruction of Hama
Speaker 1: until you give us our damn American citizens back. Like
Speaker 1: that's a strong foreign policy that protects Americans, because it's
Speaker 1: not just about what happened on October the seventh anymore.
Speaker 1: This is now a foreign policy that is putting American
Speaker 1: lives at risk everywhere in the world. It's not just Israel,
Speaker 1: it's not just in the Middle East, everywhere in the world.
Speaker 1: There used to be And I was about to mention
Speaker 1: this a moment ago, and I want to go back
Speaker 1: to the point I was going to make, and that's this.
Speaker 1: There used to be like an invisible bubble around Americans.
Speaker 1: When you traveled around the world. There was unspoken like, hey,
Speaker 1: don't screw with American citizens. Don't grab them and hold
Speaker 1: them hostage for ransom. Like like, whatever you do, don't
Speaker 1: screw with America because if you do screw with America,
Speaker 1: it's gonna get bad.
Speaker 2: Like, it's not gonna work out well for you.
Speaker 1: That's why you could travel all over the world and
Speaker 1: feel like you were safe even though you were outside
Speaker 1: of the United States of America, because it was very
Speaker 1: clear that if you messed with a single American, we
Speaker 1: were going to come after you. All right, Before I
Speaker 1: continue with this, I want to tell you about my
Speaker 1: friends over at Freedom Gold. And if you are like
Speaker 1: me and you are worried about your financial future and
Speaker 1: protecting your hard earned dollars, you need to do what
Speaker 1: so many are doing around the world, and that is
Speaker 1: turning to gold and silver as a hedge against inflation
Speaker 1: and the much higher consumer prices we're dealing with right now.
Speaker 1: You need a financial plan that ensures that you the
Speaker 1: money you save today will be enough for you tomorrow.
Speaker 1: And that's where gold and silver come in. Gold and
Speaker 1: silver have historically been amazing hedges against inflation and a
Speaker 1: great way to protect your hard earned retirement funds. And
Speaker 1: when it comes to buying gold and silver, you need
Speaker 1: a trusted partner.
Speaker 2: You need Freedom Gold USA. Let me tell you why.
Speaker 1: On average they charge twenty five to thirty percent less
Speaker 1: than most major gold and silver firms.
Speaker 2: What does that mean.
Speaker 1: It means you could literally get twenty five to thirty
Speaker 1: percent more gold or silver when buying from Freedom Gold
Speaker 1: over their competitors, just by picking a partner that you
Speaker 1: can trust. Freedom Goold USA is all about educating their
Speaker 1: clients on how to invest in precious metals. And that's
Speaker 1: why I use them, and this is why I want
Speaker 1: you to call them. So take control of your financial
Speaker 1: future now. And no matter what happens in the world,

Speaker 1: five eight eight four three. Take control your financial future now.

Speaker 1: dot com slash Ben, or call them one eight hundred
Speaker 1: sixty five five eight eight four three freedomsa dot com
Speaker 1: Tom Benferguson sent you. Now, some of that went away
Speaker 1: with the Iranian hostage crisis, right, and that's what led
Speaker 1: to Ronald Reagan being elected because Americans wanted that status back.
Speaker 1: You don't screw with Americans. And guess what happened when
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan was inaugurated. They were immediately released all the
Speaker 1: hostages because they didn't fear Jimmy Carter. And Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: very much like Jimmy Carter right now. He's not someone
Speaker 1: that is feared by any bad actors in the world.
Speaker 1: And people didn't fear Jimmy Carter either. Ronald Reagan, they
Speaker 1: knew right away was a guy that was going to
Speaker 1: come and unleash Holy hell on you, and that's why
Speaker 1: they released the hostages. The Biden administration is also their
Speaker 1: response to what's going on here is disgusting as well.
Speaker 1: I want you to hear John Kirby in his own
Speaker 1: words at the White House.
Speaker 3: Listen the ones we Vito didn't condemn MAMAS. This one
Speaker 3: didn't condemn MAMAS, which is why we couldn't support it,
Speaker 3: but we didn't veto it because in general, unlike previous resolutions,
Speaker 3: this one did fairly capture what has been our consistent policy,
Speaker 3: which is linking a hostage deal in the release of
Speaker 3: those men and women with of course a temporary cya.
Speaker 2: Squar That's not what was in the deal you noticed there.
Speaker 1: None of this is about saving American lives or getting
Speaker 1: the hostages back.
Speaker 2: This is all about semantics.
Speaker 1: This is all about all right, we're going to say
Speaker 1: this kumbayah is We're going to kind of talk about it, but.
Speaker 2: Not talk about it. John Kirby also saying this, Listen.
Speaker 4: You're now for the first time in a while, the
Speaker 4: United States is at least substaining and allowing to go through.
Speaker 4: So the perception broadly is that the US is no
Speaker 4: longer got Israel's back when it comes to conversations like
Speaker 4: this is the way.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just not true, and nothing could be fun
Speaker 3: from the truth. Quite frankly, of course, we still have
Speaker 3: Israels back. I mean, as you and I are speaking,
Speaker 3: we are still providing tools and capabilities, weapon systems so
Speaker 3: that Israel can defend itself against which we agree is
Speaker 3: still a viable for Tomasa.
Speaker 2: I love that. Right, You guys aren't going to have
Speaker 2: the back of Israel. That's just not true. That's not true.
Speaker 2: We've got their back. No, you don't.
Speaker 1: John Kirby just lied to you. He lied to the
Speaker 1: American people, and he showed weakness on the world stage
Speaker 1: by saying nothing can be further from the truth when
Speaker 1: asked about the perception the US is no longer has
Speaker 1: Israel's back and in the US abstaining from a UN
Speaker 1: resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, what message that's
Speaker 1: in the tears? Hey, open season on Americans. You want
Speaker 1: to grab an American, we ain't going to stop you.
Speaker 1: And then he's pressed even more. Listen to this today.
Speaker 3: As you all know, we abstained on a UN Security
Speaker 3: Council resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza till the
Speaker 3: end of Ramadan and the release of all the hostages.
Speaker 3: Our vote does, I repeat, does not represent a shift
Speaker 3: in our policy.
Speaker 2: We've been very clear, We've been very.
Speaker 3: Consistent in our support for a ceasefire as part of
Speaker 3: a hostage deal.
Speaker 1: Again, if it's not as shift in policy, then why
Speaker 1: are you having to lead your press conference when everybody
Speaker 1: in the world knows it's a shift in your policy
Speaker 1: By defending your administration's decision to abstain from a UN
Speaker 1: resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. The reason why
Speaker 1: you were in this scenario and the reason why you're
Speaker 1: having to start your press conference by saying it that
Speaker 1: way is because everyone, not just in America, everyone in
Speaker 1: the media, and everyone in the world knows that America
Speaker 1: just hung Israel out to drive the United Nations.
Speaker 4: Like.
Speaker 1: You can say whatever your propaganda is here, but the
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is you have now told Hamas
Speaker 1: that American lives aren't worth that much, that we're not
Speaker 1: going to fight that hard to get Americans back that
Speaker 1: you held hostage. We're not really in favor of holding
Speaker 1: you accountable for your actions on October the seventh, Right,
Speaker 1: We're just not And you just want this thing to
Speaker 1: kind of go away before the election, because it really
Speaker 1: does come down to the issue of the election. This
Speaker 1: president does not want a big war in the Middle East,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't want young people to think that America's
Speaker 1: pro war and holding terrorists accountable. It's actually about that
Speaker 1: issue the most. They understand that young voters in this
Speaker 1: country are not in favor of backing and supporting Israel.
Speaker 1: They've been brainwashed by our academic society and radical young
Speaker 1: people and radicals that have infiltrated our high schools and
Speaker 1: our colleges to believe that somehow Israel's the bad guy
Speaker 1: after what happened on October the seventh, or the Israel
Speaker 1: come to deserve what they got on October the seventh, right,
Speaker 1: they stand with hamas they stand with the terrorists. And
Speaker 1: this administration is looking at these young voters going, we
Speaker 1: gotta get him vote in November against Donald Trump. So
Speaker 1: how do we do that if they're mad at us
Speaker 1: saying that we're backing Israel because they hate Israel.
Speaker 2: That's the politics behind all of this.
Speaker 1: John Kirby is going out there changing America's foreign policy
Speaker 1: that's putting more American lives at risk, solely to try to.
Speaker 2: Win an election in November.
Speaker 1: I want to move to another important issue that deals
Speaker 1: with Biden crime family, as we will continue to watch
Speaker 1: what's happening in Israel and the UN with America deciding
Speaker 1: as screw it, we don't need to stand up for
Speaker 1: even our own citizens are being held hostage. And this
Speaker 1: is now coming from Politico. Politico is now reporting that
Speaker 1: the DOJ looked at transactions linked to Jim Biden, the
Speaker 1: President's brother, as part of a criminal investigation. Federal investigators
Speaker 1: were now being told. In South Florida recently probe transactions
Speaker 1: linked to Jim Biden as part of a major criminal investigation,
Speaker 1: according to two people familiar with the matter, The investigation
Speaker 1: remains open, according to one of the two sources. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: the Justice Department officials prosecuting an ongoing Medicare fraud case
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania are also seeking information about the activities of
Speaker 1: President Joe Biden's brother as recently as last year that,
Speaker 1: according to a third person familiar with the case, all
Speaker 1: three were granted imininity to discuss sensitive matters. Now, the
Speaker 1: revelations add, they say, to the potential legal minefield surrounding
Speaker 1: the first family. This at a time when House Republicans
Speaker 1: are pursuing an impeachment inquiry aimed at the Biden family's
Speaker 1: business dealings, and Hunter Biden facing federal tax charges in
Speaker 1: California and those gun charges in Delaware that are purposely
Speaker 1: designed to not connect any of his well criminal activity
Speaker 1: to his father. Both investigations have scrutinized a troubled hospital chain.
Speaker 1: We've talked about this before on this show, americ Corps.
Speaker 1: America Corps was a company that was desperate for capital
Speaker 1: they went to Jim Biden and they asked for money.
Speaker 1: Americ Corps sat down with Jim Biden and they worked
Speaker 1: with him in the years after President Joe Biden left
Speaker 1: the Obama administration desperate for cash that he promised he
Speaker 1: could find them, but it never showed up. In Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: where a healthcare entrepreneur has pled guilty to his role
Speaker 1: in the alleged fraud scheme, prosecutors say and Americ Corps
Speaker 1: hospital received tens of millions of dollars in improper Medicare reimbursements.
Speaker 1: That is part of the investigation as well. Now you
Speaker 1: look at everything that I just told you coming in
Speaker 1: from Politico, none of this, by the way, should be surprising.
Speaker 1: Looking at these transactions linked to Jim Biden as part
Speaker 1: of the investigation is exactly what should be major headlines everywhere.
Speaker 1: This is the president's brother. I'm probably the first place
Speaker 1: you've heard about any of this. Now, these federal investigators
Speaker 1: in South Florida, who again they say, recently probe the
Speaker 1: transactions linked to Jim Biden's part of this criminal investigation.
Speaker 1: The investigation they say is open and very much ongoing.
Speaker 1: They also are now saying that the Justice Department officials
Speaker 1: are prosecuting that ongoing Medicare fraud case in Pennsylvania, which
Speaker 1: I mentioned a moment ago, are now seeking more information
Speaker 1: about the activity of President Joe Biden's brother as recently
Speaker 1: as six months ago.
Speaker 2: Six months ago, folks.
Speaker 1: So if you think the Biden crime family stopped their activities,
Speaker 1: their criminal activities, you're wrong. In fact, it looks like
Speaker 1: they may have even jacked them up when he won
Speaker 1: the White House. You look at the money laundering that's
Speaker 1: coming in from the paintings that Hunter Biden does, and
Speaker 1: the White House brother involved in all of this corruption
Speaker 1: with a fraud that involves taxpayer dollars Like this isn't
Speaker 1: private sector fraud. This fraud with AMERICRPS was fraud that
Speaker 1: involved taxpayer dollars in the tens of millions of dollars
Speaker 1: that were being defrauded and the American taxpayers were paying for.
Speaker 2: Now, both of these.
Speaker 1: Investigations scrutinize a troubled chain that Hunter Biden, or actually
Speaker 1: James Biden knew was troubled and there that was, in
Speaker 1: fact the opportunity. Hey I'm Jim Biden, Okay, I'll come in.
Speaker 1: I'll hook you up. My brother's Joe Biden in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: where a healthcare entrepreneur has pled guilty to his role
Speaker 1: in the alleged fraud scheme. Prosecutor sat a man Ahir
Speaker 1: Coorp Hospital received tens of millions of dollars in proper
Speaker 1: Medicare reimbursements, and they want to know how they got
Speaker 1: away with it. Could it be because the president's brother
Speaker 1: was involved in the business dealings that are now under
Speaker 1: investigation as part of an effort by Jim Biden and
Speaker 1: his business partners to land investments from sources around the world,
Speaker 1: Because that's also what this article is now saying. In Politico,
Speaker 1: they said, what's under investigation is the fact that Jim
Speaker 1: Biden and his business partners were hired by AmeriCorps to
Speaker 1: bring in foreign money because they couldn't get money in America,
Speaker 1: and so they were trying to land big paychecks from
Speaker 1: their quote sources in the Middle East to finance AmeriCorps
Speaker 1: and other ventures in the US that were desperate for money.
Speaker 1: Investigators in Florida say they're now seeking information about an
Speaker 1: agreement that Jim Biden was a party to. According to
Speaker 1: one of the people familiar with the case, saying they
Speaker 1: have also folks us on a series of loans made
Speaker 1: to AmeriCorps by an investment fund run by a Jim
Speaker 1: Biden associate. According to others involved, Jim Biden, we also
Speaker 1: know told Congress last month that he was paid to
Speaker 1: arrange some of those shady loans. Now a previously unreported
Speaker 1: lawsuit notice I said the word unreported lawsuit alleges that
Speaker 1: the payments that Jim Biden received were quote improper. In
Speaker 1: a complaint filed in Palm Beach County in twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: investors in the Third Friday Total Return Fund alleged that
Speaker 1: the money manager in charge of the fund looted millions
Speaker 1: of dollars from it by making sham loans. These sham
Speaker 1: loans to AmeriCorps and then diverted more than six hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars of those embezzled funds to Jim Biden, the
Speaker 1: lawsuit states in Palm Beach County, So in other words,
Speaker 1: I'm going to get you some shady money, is what
Speaker 1: Jim Biden was saying.
Speaker 2: And when I get it for you, you're.
Speaker 1: Immediately going to hook me up and divert some of
Speaker 1: that shady funding into my bank account. What's even more
Speaker 1: crazy about this story, and this is where it connects
Speaker 1: directly to his brother, the President of United States of America,
Speaker 1: is that when America Corps diverted the six hundred thousand
Speaker 1: dollars of embezzled funds to Jim Biden, then Jim Biden
Speaker 1: transferred two hundred thousand of his money of that six
Speaker 1: hundred thousand to the President Joe Biden, and a transaction
Speaker 1: that he and the White House have said was quote a.
Speaker 2: Loan repayment, So we now know how the money was flowing.
Speaker 1: Several of the loans have an additional, previously unreported.
Speaker 2: Link to the bidens.
Speaker 1: An email now that's been obtained by Politico shows that
Speaker 1: a lawyer who has worked for Jim and Hunter Biden
Speaker 1: represented the lender in some of the transactions that are
Speaker 1: now being scrutinized for fraud. That lawyer has not responded
Speaker 1: for requests for comment from Politico. Jim Biden is not
Speaker 1: named as a defendant in the Palm Beach suit and
Speaker 1: is not clear whether his activities are a focus in
Speaker 1: either of the criminal investigations, but they have been talking
Speaker 1: to him and seeking information about all of this now.
Speaker 1: The White House also doing what they do best. They
Speaker 1: refer to request for comments to Jim Biden's representatives. Through
Speaker 1: a spokesperson, Jim Biden's lawyer, Paul Fishman, said Jim Biden
Speaker 1: is not being investigated by federal law enforcement in Florida
Speaker 1: or Pennsylvania, and he was unaware of any ongoing or
Speaker 1: recent executive branch investigations of his client. He did not
Speaker 1: respond to a follow up question about how he knows
Speaker 1: that Jim Biden is not being investigated in Florida or
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania cases from Politico as well. The South Florida office
Speaker 1: of the Justice Department declined to comment, and the West
Speaker 1: from Pennsylvania office didn't respond for requests for comment either.
Speaker 2: What we do know is this, Jim Biden.
Speaker 1: Decided to jump head in, headfirst into the healthcare business area,
Speaker 1: which picked up in the months after his brother left
Speaker 1: the vice presidency in twenty seventeen. He was the subject
Speaker 1: of a recent political investigation. It found that Jim Biden
Speaker 1: leveraged President Joe Biden's name to promote the hospital chain AmeriCorps,
Speaker 1: and that several members of the former Vice president's inner
Speaker 1: circle worked for AmeriCorps or participated in AMERICRPS meetings and
Speaker 1: its representatives in the years leading up to his twenty
Speaker 1: twenty presidential run. And is there money connecting the president
Speaker 1: to AmeriCorps. Yes, when Jim Biden got the six hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, two hundred thousand of that money went straight
Speaker 1: to Joe Biden that they claim was alone. Now, as
Speaker 1: part of that venture, we also know that Jim Biden
Speaker 1: worked with a group of Florida based business partners to
Speaker 1: seek investments for americ Corps and other companies from sources
Speaker 1: in the Middle East. Now, this is where America Corps
Speaker 1: is angry. They did not receive the investment funds that
Speaker 1: its executives expected by using Jim Biden. The company went
Speaker 1: bankrupt in nineteen has been at the center of the
Speaker 1: legal and political controversies ever since. Now what we do
Speaker 1: know is this is coming from Politico. They're calling it
Speaker 1: a brazen scheme. In seventeen, Jim Biden began working with
Speaker 1: a money manager and a business development entrepreneur based in
Speaker 1: south Ford in an effort to land tens of millions
Speaker 1: of dollars to invest in the US healthcare sector. The
Speaker 1: Money Manager ran a popular investing newsletter as well as
Speaker 1: the Third Friday Fund. Amar Roustom, the CEO of the
Speaker 1: business development company The Platinum Group, boasted of ties to
Speaker 1: its leaders in the Middle East as well.
Speaker 2: So what did Jim Biden do. He was trying to.
Speaker 1: Secure big paydays and then kickbacks that came to him
Speaker 1: for doing it, and then that money went to Joe
Speaker 1: Biden as well.
Speaker 2: That is the reality of the situation. Notice that what
Speaker 2: I'm telling you now no one else is talking about.
Speaker 1: I wonder why make sure you share this podcast with
Speaker 1: your family and your friends, and I'll see you back
Speaker 1: here tomorrow.
