Shocking Biden Corruption Exposed
"Welcome back to the ReliefFactor .com studio. I am your guest host, Carl Jackson, sitting in for Mike Gallagher. Guys, there's an audio clip. Before I get to the callers, and I do want to do a rundown of this story real quick, the latest Biden corruption we all knew about, but that is systematically being exposed by the Republicans. I do, I do have to give Senator Chuck Grassley and Senator Ron Johnson credit for their work behind the scenes. The problem is we don't have enough people in Washington, DC like them. The same is true for the House. This is why I'm telling you it's going to be a generational fight. All right, we'll get into more details on that later. But R .F .K. Jr. said that a government that can censor its critics has license for every atrocity. Now, I'm not I don't want R .F .K. Jr. on the Republican ticket. There's an outcry for that because of his stance on the vaccines. R .F .K. Jr., I think I probably would agree with the guy 60 percent of the time. But R .F .K. Jr. to me appears to be a liberal as opposed to a leftist that hates this country. So this is why I would love to see him rise in the in the DNC if you make sure that that doesn't happen. But here's R .F .K. Jr. audio clip number seven Paul Favore, Eric. A government that can censor its critics has license for every atrocity. It is the beginning of totalitarianism. There's never been a time in history. When we look back and the guys who were censoring people were the good guys. All of us grew up reading Arthur Kessler, Robert Heinlein, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, and they were all saying the same thing. Once you start censoring, you're on your way to dystopia and totalitarianism. I love this cut. This guy, this guy is a liberal. And here's the here's the fight that's that's ahead of us. This is why this is why you have to understand fighting against the left is it's going to be a major battle. We cannot lay down. Robert Kennedy, much like Trump, much like most Republicans, I would contend, believes in America. The Democrats that were on that committee yesterday do not.

"I want to get into some of this corruption. Hat tip the Federalist explosive F .D. 1023 exposes more Biden bribery, dirt and and teases damning evidence to come. So Senator Chuck Grassley just released a minimally redacted copy of the FBI's F .D. sources, basically an undercover reporting of a criminal scheme involving then V .P. Joe Biden and Ukrainian business Barista. How much time, Eric? According to the F .D. 1023 summary, Barista's owner specifically referenced the firing of prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, the same the same man that Biden bragged about Ukraine firing after his vice president. This stuff is this stuff is so insidious. This guy is so corrupt. This guy is so evil. The only thing the only reason they're going after Trump is to distract you from this evil, wicked, corrupt man that is in the White House. This man is corrupting every single one of our institutions, and we have to be willing to stand up and fight for every single one. That also includes the culture war. Some of you are scared to fight the culture war. You cannot

Debt limit deadline looms as Democrats, GOP spar on spending
"This standoff continues in Congress over raising the nation's debt ceiling with a possible default becoming more of a reality. The Treasury Department has warned the U.S. government could default on its debt as early as June 1st. But Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer says the house GOP can't use that to force Democrats to agree to sharp budget cuts. To sneak their radical proposals through the back door. Iowa Republican chuck grassley says the president will have to meet with a House speaker to work out a compromise. This is an opening bid. It's time for President Biden to stop playing politics. Economist Mark zandi with moody's analytics told lawmakers the political tension isn't helping the U.S. economic recovery. We need to end this drama as quickly as possible if we don't.

Subpoena Issued for Alleged Criminal Scheme Involving Biden
"Here was Fox News, I see this report yesterday, and I'm thinking, my gosh, this is one of the biggest stories of the decade. Here's a correspondent rich Edson on Fox News channel. The House oversight committee chairman James comer says that he's issued a subpoena to the FBI in a letter that he and senator chuck grassley have sent to attorney general Merrick Garland and FBI director Chris wray. They write that a quote highly credible whistleblower says the Justice Department at FBI have a form that quote describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then President Biden and a former national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions. It's been alleged that the document includes a precise description of how the alleged criminal scheme was employed as well as its purpose. Now comer and grassley provide no information on the identity of the whistleblower, what specifically they were alleging, in short, it's a subpoena for a document that an unidentified whistleblower says exists and shows illegal activity. It is unclear yet how the Justice Department will respond, we have reached out, John. All right, so we don't know what this scheme is, only that it's believed that the DoJ and the FBI have information about this scheme. Exactly. What these two Republicans are alleging is that there is a document that exists and they've gotten that information they say from a whistleblower. And unidentified whistleblower and that the document exists within the Department of Justice and the FBI showing an illegal scheme, allegedly involving the vice president and that they are requesting that information now officially with a subpoena from the FBI and Justice Department, but these Republicans have not seen that document. And they have just sent the subpoena request because of whistleblower told them it exists within the FBI. That's where we are right now with this.

Darren, I want to talk about Israel. You have a very unique take on that. But first, I just want to get your thoughts on this restrict act that we've been talking about that more Republicans than Democrats are sponsoring. And I just want to remind our audience what Republicans are sponsoring this. John boozman from Arkansas, my crepo from Idaho, Lindsey Graham from South Carolina, Tom tillis from North Carolina chuck grassley from Iowa, Kevin Kramer from North Dakota. Shelley Moore capito from West Virginia, Mitt Romney from Utah. Susan Collins from Maine, Dan Sullivan from Alaska, Jerry Moran from Kansas, Deb Fischer from Nebraska and John thune from South Dakota. Darren, your thoughts on the restrict act. Well, you have a bill that supported by Lindsey Graham, Tom tillis and Mitt Romney. You know you're in for a beauty. The restrict act, what can we say about it? Well, first thing to know is that it's a Trojan horse type Bill. What it's being packaged as is some kind of way to counteract the nefarious foreign communist infused influence of TikTok, which is a natural cell. Everybody can get behind that. But what it actually is, is a Trojan horse. And amounts effectively, I think the best description of it that I've heard is the Patriot Act for the Internet. Even though the marketing is specifically tailored to TikTok, something that we all love to hate, the actual substance of the bill is very vague and it is no way limited to TikTok. It's vaguely constrained to technologies associated with quote unquote foreign adversaries.

"Cryptic message on Facebook during the break. The listener was commenting, of course, on a ridiculous attorney generally failed excuse for a human being. His line yesterday up on Capitol Hill that they can't solve crimes involving pro life centers because they happen at night. Which is. So this listener as a source of deep in bed and got ahold of a little memo, apparently Garland sent out Jim, I need you to listen to this. You sent a copy. I can't say his name, obviously it's very deep 6 here Dear criminals. Due to the decreased visibility and making it hard to see you. Please conduct all criminal activity during daylight hours. Preferably Monday through Thursday, 8 to 5, Friday, 8 to one. Thank you for your consideration, Merrick Garland. So to the listener, the first name begins with R who sent that thank you, got a deep source inside the DoJ. Fact checkers. Fact checkers. Actually, we're kidding. We're kidding, that's a joke. That's a joke, fact. Bill team McCarthy. Bill Dee, Billy, Jacob Reyes. You can say you can relax, change your diabetes. Richard just kidding. He's a listener. That's not a real memo. But it could be, but it could be. Congress said they should make that a lot. That'll solve it. And a couple of other listeners brought up a great point, Jim. Now we finally got to the bottom of the mysterious January 6th bomber with air quotes. He planted them at night. Of course. Now we know why they can't find them. It's a whole thing problem solved. That they gave up. The FBI was like an insurrection on January 6th with alleged bombs at the RNC and DNC. Bro, it happened at night. We're not going to solve that. The hell out of here. I put in a crazy guy left the bombs at night. It's over. Can't see them. And I love Garland, and we like to put an accent on that. And at night, you can't see them. Yeah, that's why we have these things called investigative techniques, cell tracking, fingerprints, boot prints, DNA, surveillance, geofencing, source networks, you know, the stuff they call law enforcement, Garland's like they never heard of the man, dude, you're the attorney freak in general. Maybe give it a shot. You have flight right, yeah, get flashlights, right? Sky, man. Here's Garland again up on Capitol Hill yesterday. And chuck grassley, listen, regardless of your feelings about chuck grassley's a Republican senator, he's been around a while. Let me tell you some a little inside baseball. When I was a agent myself in the federal government, I don't remember the context of the conversation. I'm not trying to be cryptic or coy or silly about it. I really don't. But I specifically remember someone who had been a liaison of a Capitol Hill or whatever saying to me, hey, you've been a watch out for chuck grassley. He looks at everything when it comes to federal law enforcement. And I never forgot that. That happened, unlike a Joe Biden story. So the point I'm trying to make is graslie is not a Johnny come lately when it comes to scrutiny of federal law enforcement. This has been a thing of his for a long time. I say that because when chuck grassley asks a question up on Capitol Hill, 9 out of ten times ladies and gentlemen, there may be punctuation marks at the end that look like a question mark, but I assure you it's not a question. Graslie and his staff are asking this question what they're really doing is making a statement about what they know and trying to get the attorney general on the record about it. I want you to listen very specifically to this question by grazie of Garland yesterday and how he pins him in a corner. On hey, you think it would be a big deal if a foreign government let's say one that may have been dealing with like Biden Inc or something? You think it would be a big deal if they had records of payments to people who may have made political decisions based on those payments. In other words, bribed and blackmail material later on, you think? You think he's really asking this question because he wants an answer? What do you think graz's disaster in this asking this question to tell the media? We got some take a listen. If the Justice Department received information that foreign persons had evidence of improper or unlawful financial payment paid to elected officials or other politically exposed persons and those payments may have influenced policy decisions, would that pose a national security concern and demand a full investigation and when ray was here, he seemed to answer that question in that it was a national security concern. I want your opinion. And the way that you're, if I follow the question exactly right, if it's an agent of a foreign government asking someone and paying someone to do things to support that foreign government and secret. Yes, I definitely think that would be a national security problem. Oh, boy, freaking genius, that is right there. Again, I don't know your personal things about grass. Oh, it's totally admiral.

Federal Investigation of Hunter Biden Heats Up
"So you have The Washington Post coming out saying the laptop is true. Miranda divine to her great credit led with the story with the article laptop from hell. The New York Post published it and they lost their Twitter account for even talking about it. And now you're starting to see in mainstream regime media pretty extensive coverage about a an indictment that might be looming because of a very serious and real federal investigation against Hunter Biden. This is CNN play cut 42. Well, Brianna, this is a very real, very substantial investigation of potentially serious federal crimes. We are seeing federal prosecutors in Delaware. Do exactly what you would expect to see federal prosecutors doing this situation. They're talking to witnesses, they're bringing people into the grand jury. They're issuing subpoenas. And I would expect, as Evan reported, they're now gaining steam and they need to make a decision, I think, in the at least intermediate future. In this case has been going on for four years and there is a realistic chance this could result in federal charges. Of course, then we be in unprecedented political territory, not legal territory, but a situation of having potentially the Justice Department prosecuting and trying to imprison the son of the president. And look, it's not like Hunter Biden is being investigated for doing something completely unrelated from his father. It's not like they're investigating Hunter Biden for not paying taxes because he's a sports star for the Lakers or for the New York rangers. Now this is because a business dealings he was doing with his father for his father and because his father who was who he was.

Hunter Biden's 'Laptop From Hell' With Miranda Devine
"With us right now is a phenomenal patriot, she's super smart and is shaking the matrix. There's a lot happening. I think it's because of her reporting and because of her book that we're starting to see some rumblings from our federal law enforcement agencies. In the direction of Hunter Biden with us is Miranda divine author of the plainly titled but accurately titled book the laptop from hell, Miranda, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk show. Thanks so much. Charlie, great to be with you. So tell us the book is out I've heard some amazing things about it and so tell us what the reaction has been. Well, look, it's been a bestseller, sold a lot of copies to people on our side of the fence, but really there was this wall between conservatives and people who are, you know, perhaps Trump voters who didn't vote for Joe Biden. And the people who read The New York Times and watched CNN and MSNBC and just were kept in the dark by their favored organs before the election. And until 17 months later, last week, The New York Times broke that wall, just a little, just a little chink by admitting that yes, the laptop from hell, Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop is real and they had authenticated emails on it. I mean, we did that 17 months ago, you know, basically the New York Post that was your previous guest, Emma Joe Morris, my friend, my colleague, she did a brilliant job of doing the due diligence that was necessary. And we also had Charlie Bobbie linsky, who you didn't need the laptop. You could just talk to Tony bubble linsky who was a very is a very credible businessman who got caught up in the Hunter Biden mess and a patriot, a naval veteran. He offered himself to the media and gave a press conference before the election after the New York Post story first came out. And no one was interested. They just dismissed him. They ignored him. We didn't. We published the material that he gave us, which was, you know, it corroborated what was on the laptop and it augmented it. And then there was the chuck grassley and Ron Johnson inquiry, which already about a month before we published that stories had already started laying down the paper trail, the documents that showed all this millions of dollars ended up being tens of millions of dollars coming out of Chinese and Russian and Ukrainian shady coffers into the bank accounts in America of Joe Biden's family members and their business

Right now, in the last two weeks, I've seen at least 5 really solid phenomenal legislators. People that I worked with when I was a senator that were phenomenal that fought for the people they've all said, we're done. We're not running for reelection. We quit. We're done. We're done.

Remember, 70 30. Go fuck yourself. And they're tired of that. And they're saying we quit. So here's the thing. They're going to quit, and then Republicans will win those positions. And West Virginia is going to become the most miserable state in the frigging country. And it's going to be that way for another 20 freaking years until finally these people say we can't take it anymore, and then they rise up against these Republicans and replace them.

He said, well, you know, Donald Trump has, you know, 25,000 people there that are all, Iowa Republicans, so I might as well get there and, you know, and get their support because I need the votes. Yeah. So he's willing to support at the leader of the insurrection. Yeah. Because he wants to get elected. Because he elected. Look, I'll tell you right now. I lost and I did everything. I was in R plus 54 district. I was number one out of all 435 races and flipping redbooks blue. I did everything. I was in every single county multiple times. I was open to any questions. I almost got fist fights a few times. You know, I didn't give a shit. I was out there. I was in areas where even the damn Republicans were. I was there. My opponent did nothing. She didn't answer any questions from anybody. She refused to speak to the media. The only thing she did was attack my military service. And basically look into the camera and say, I'm just going to do whatever Donald Trump wants and she won. She won because these people around here they ain't smart enough to realize that that orange freaking turd don't give two shits about you. And he's using you and they don't care to this day steal. I can drive 5 minutes from my house and pass 60 freaking Trump flags. It's still that way. So that's the thing. The good people leave. Leave. Get out of here and go find things better elsewhere. And make no mistake about it. Over the next 20 years, you're going to hear a lot of calls. We can't take it. Our roads are the worst. They're still the worst. But you're going to see a lot of people that are going to be screaming and crying about how horrible it is in West Virginia. And you know what? You did it to yourself. You did it to yourself.

That certainly at amazon and also probably a google and preventing businesses product from inter operating with the platform. This is similar. Yeah that's apple. This is similar to a bill approved by the us house judiciary committee earlier this year. That bill has not reached the house floor for consideration. But the senate. Bill is even a little stricter than that one was so this does seem to have momentum behind it given the senators who attached their name grassley. And which are the senator sponsoring it. senators graham and durban are backing it.

You saw people over the last few weeks planning an insurrection and, in fact invading the capital on Ben later saying, I'm here because my president told me to be That is the consequence of Trump's war rhetoric. When you look in total at the changes that Trump has brought two presidential rhetoric, what do you see as the cumulative effect? Especially right now, when the U. S is in a public health emergency, a reckoning about race and a nin ability to even agree on basic facts like vaccines work, or Biden won a free and fair election? Yeah, he's absolutely used the fire hose of propaganda model. You know, in a way, he's like an authoritarian PTP. Barnum trying t o, you know, redirect our attention and yet keep our during our attention all of the time. I think that it will be interesting to see what happens next. Well see, I think that Joe Biden will be a much more responsible communicator Tham President Trump has been and so we'll see if that sort of evens things out. Jennifer Murcia of Texas and M. University author of Demagogue for President, The rhetorical genius of Donald Trump. Professor Murcia. Thanks for talking with us. It's been my pleasure. Thank you. Treasury Secretary nominee Janet Yellen used her confirmation hearing today to make the case for another round of federal pandemic relief. Yellen would be the first woman to lead the Treasury Department. She has already chaired the Federal Reserve and her nomination has the backing of all the living former Treasury secretaries, Both Democrats and Republicans. NPR's Scott Horsley reports. Janet Yellen says she's mindful that the incoming administration's economic rescue proposal carries a big price tag $1.9 trillion, but yell until the Senate Finance Committee failure to pass the plan would be even costlier, resulting in a longer, more painful recession. That leaves many workers permanently scarred. Smartest thing we can do is act big. In the longer and I believe the benefits will for it with the costs. The plan includes money to speed up delivery of covert vaccines, expanded help for the unemployed and $1400 relief payments for most Americans. It also includes hundreds of billions of dollars for state and local governments, which have already laid off some 1.3 million workers. With budget shortfalls. We're going to see Further layoffs of the central workers, including policemen and firefighters and sanitation workers. Much the Biden rescue package is likely to meet resistance from Senate Republicans. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says this is not the time for what he calls a laundry list of liberal economic reforms. Pennsylvania Senator Pat Toomey questioned the need for additional relief when he says the ink is barely dry on the $900 billion bill that Congress passed last month on Lee Organizing principle that I can discern is it seems to spend as much money as possible. Seemingly for the sake of spending it, But congressional Democrats want to avoid repeating what they see as the government's mistake's. During the last recession, cutting off aid to quickly Oregon Senator Ron Wyden blasted what he calls snooze button relief, temporary stopgap measures that have to be renewed again and again. White notes. The emergency unemployment benefits passed last month are set to expire in the middle of March. Even though it's doubtful millions of recipients will be back to work. By then there are groceries in my refrigerator. That are gonna last longer. And Mitch McConnell's unemployment agenda. The Biden proposal would extend jobless benefits at least through September and longer if conditions warrant The incoming administration is also pushing for long term investments in infrastructure and worker training and for $15 minimum wage. While low income workers have been hit hardest by the pandemic, Yellin says their problems didn't just start last year. Well before cof its 19. Infected a single American. We were living in a case shaped economy. One. We're wealth built upon wells will working families fell farther and farther behind. Much of that agenda will face headwinds in a closely divided Congress. But Yellen's confirmation is on a fast track. The Finance Committee ask you to respond to senators. Written.

"Finally, do you commit to providing a prompt response and writing to any questions addressed you by any senator of this committee? Yes, I come into that. You know, in regard to that last one, I hope I think Senator Biden as Senator would agree with me that when Trump Administration first came in, they issued some sort of a regulation. That they were going toe on. Lee answer questions for committee chairman We finally got them off of it. I don't know where they answered every question of favors and or not, they probably they're not. But I hope that we don't hear that from this administration that you have to be chairman of a committee to get to be an answer to your question before I ask the first question, But it's kind of along the lines of The question I was going to ask you. I just heard your opening comment about learning so much from your father about the workers of America and about the business of America. I hope you will continually remind people that you have that background and you take it into consideration every opportunity you can. Because I think people think of you being in public service for such a long time may have for gotten at just like I think a lot of people think That, uh, that after Chuck Grassley has been in the United States Senate for 40 years, he's for gotten the 10 years he spent on the assembly line with workers of Iowa. And, uh, It's important that they be reminded of these backgrounds. Dr Yellin. How will you work at Treasury to ensure that the interest of American workers and businesses and rural America aren't ignored? Senator Chris, please. Thank you. For that question. It will be my core focus. If I'm confirmed his Treasury secretary to focus on the needs of America's workers, those living in cities and in rural areas and to make sure that We have a competitive economy that offer's good jobs and good wages. And I really look forward to working with President elect Biden and his team first to address the critical issues we face is a country. Now, with the pandemic, causing such misery for so many small businesses that air have failed. Our are at risk of failing need our help and the unemployed workers who have been so badly affected by the impact of pit of the parent image, especially on the service sector. It's disproportionately Hit the service sector and the workers who are employed in that sector. And it's been particularly brutal in its impact on minorities and on women. And I will be focused from day one on providing support to America's workers and two small businesses. Putting into effect is quickly and efficiently as I can. The relief. Uh, in the bill that was recently passed and then over time working for.

"Try to investigate this stuff instead of just say, Oh, well. The Wisconsin Election Commission says there was no illegality. Found over the past year point by Point law by law that was systematically broken. Nobody else in the rest of the media outside of talk radio. Dared to comment on this rampant lawlessness. How the Wisconsin Election Commission literally violated the law in keeping Kanye West and the Green Party off about they literally just ignored the law. Nobody else reported on this. Why? Because they're ideologically driven. They're not driven by a need to ascertain the truth. But rather a need to advance a narrative. Was a wonderful, wonderful call Bill. And I do. Thank you for it. Do we have a another? Another call before the break. Do we have time for that? Yeah, I think so. Let's go to Jeff in Caledonia. How you doing, Jeff? Jack in California, Jack, I apologize, sir. What's your thought of the timeline? From the time President Trump was talking and the capital is breached. You know today on news backs, they said that the president is still talking. When you know, I mean, you know, the rally started in there already. People at the Capitol, you know, ready to protest, and then he was still talking and it was breached. I was watching the hearings. And I thought, you know Chuck Grassley really, you know, frantically trying to turn the meeting, and then he was whisked away and I said, Hey, Something's going on and you know, but I didn't have the Trump rally on. You know, And I just, you know, Want to know what you're you know, you said you your family was there. Well, I can actually give you a text. My wife It's just like okay, she said. Quote. I saw thousands of people start walking to the capital in the middle of Trump's speech. I'd like to know what time the mob actually entered the capital. His speech was beyond boring. People were freezing and, frankly, had heard everything he was talking about. Before. Then, she adds, Imagine where Republicans would be if they said the actions of a few bad actors does not overshadow the millions of Americans standing for election integrity. Exactly. My wife should be the White House press secretary. I'm telling you, she's got all the political talent in my family. She's absolutely right. And what she saw firsthand was and I think they actually she and her parents. Started walking towards the capital before President Trump was done. Which would, of course, also undercut this notion that somehow President.

All over this area on the west side of Capitol Now, as you've been here, All we keep hearing is a siren's left and right cars whizzing by trying to get to the capital, the security area. I mean, I'm looking around and Cars had to come from grassy areas. Blood everywhere as people who are lying through your police vehicles as well to get the situation under control. Some good news here is that some of the people are starting to file away from the area. But the people who are staying are shouting Nothinto, hold the line and to not give up the fight.

And this is, as I promised you yesterday, going to be an interesting week. It is Tuesday, and the polls have now closed in Georgia and the voting and perhaps even a little bit of cheating is already underway. We're gonna watch these results very, very closely, because you could imagine that the Georgia race is being followed closely, because, depending on the outcome, it means either the Democrats or the Republicans control the United States Senate. And it may in fact, be a great litmus test of what happened in the November 3rd election, the cheating and the irregularities if you want to use the diplomatic term for it, so we're going to be watching those results as they come in. We'll let you know as we see the numbers and of course, we'll be talking about it. Tomorrow and tomorrow. Of course, we've got the joint session of the House and Senate on Capitol Hill. It seems that Mike Pence may be there for part of the count. But it may be that Chuck Grassley senator from Iowa is going to be there as well.
