Mark Levin Criticizes Republicans Who Are Anti-Impeachment
"In at least three of my books, and you can find that in my endnotes. I don't expect the same from people who don't do their homework. That's a separate issue. So when you hear people like Matt Gaetz, I'm putting the budget aside. We're going to have Chris Roy on here. We're going to have a good talk about the budget. Chip Roy. But when you hear Matt Gaetz going on about that this is a diversion by the speaker, I've had about enough of that. I'm so pissed off have you no idea that these Republicans, even so -called conservatives, can't coalesce around impeachment inquiry? That is overdue? Are you kidding me? I don't know what their agenda is. It's not a conservative agenda. That's number one. Number two, I am sick and tired of hearing people like Ken Buck and others say there's no evidence of an impeachable offense. There's no evidence that Joe Biden took any money. The Democrat Party saying this? The media are saying this? That's not the test for impeachment. And I want to encourage James Comer, I want to encourage my dear friend Jim Jordan, I want to encourage, what's the other guy's name, Smith of House Ways and Means Committee, you need to broaden here. Yes, continue to look into what you are, financial crimes, profiteering and so forth. But here's where I want to provide you with information, here's where I want to educate these members of Congress. The media are liars and they know it, but we'll educate them along the way too. And Mr. Buck. Thank

FBI Tipped Off Biden Team About Plan to Interview Hunter
"We find out that a former FBI agent has now confirmed under testimony, I believe given, key portions of the original whistleblower's shapely testimony in the Hunter Biden probe. And that's just out this evening. The House Committee on Over, like I said, I saw the tweet not too long ago. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Accountability announced that committee staff conducted a transcribed interview with a former FBI supervisory special agent assigned to the FBI's Wilmington office. That would be Wilmington, of course, Delaware, where all investigations in the Bidens go to die, but maybe not. And the Biden criminal investigation earlier today, and that the witnesses had confirmed key portions of the IRS whistleblower's testimony in the matter. As seen in the transcripts of committee staff interviews with the two IRS whistleblowers who apparently worked with this former FBI supervisory special agent, witnesses are advised that giving false testimony to committee staff is a crime prior to the commencement of the interview, which of course he was. And then Comer says today, this is a quote from his press release tonight, a former FBI supervisory special agent assigned to the FBI's Wilmington office and the Biden criminal investigation confirmed key portions of the IRS whistleblower's testimony. The night before the interview of Hunter Biden, both secret service headquarters and the Biden transition team were tipped off about the planned interview. So here we go again. On the day of the Hunter Biden interview, federal agents were told to stand by and could not approach Hunter Biden. They had to wait for his call. Now, and this is what we heard from Shapley that they couldn't go into the storage unit. And when he was out, I believe in California, and they were trying to interview him and they figured we'll just get them there. They tipped them off that they were coming there as well. So they never did that. As a result of the change in plans, IRS and FBI criminal investigators never got to interview Hunter Biden as part of the investigation. The justice department efforts to cover up for the Bidens reveals a two tiered system of justice that sickens the American people. The oversight committee, along with the judiciary committee and Ways and Means Committee will continue to seek answers, transparency and accountability that the American people deserve and demand. So that from Comey. Now, key points of the witness testimony according to the committee. Number one, as part of the criminal investigation, there were multiple witnesses interviews that were planned for December 8th of 2020. IRS supervisory special agent, Gary Shapley and the former FBI supervisory special agent who they interviewed today were assigned to interview Hunter Biden. So both guys who have testified now were the two guys who were supposed to interview

Chris Christie Calls Out Delays in Hunter Biden Case
"Governor, what do you think in terms of Hunter Biden and the Department of Justice's explanations here and the whistleblowers that Jason Smith brought before the Ways and Means Committee last week? Unfortunately, I think there's a lot to look at here, Hugh. First off, it's stunning to me that it took five years for a Republican U .S. attorney in Delaware appointed by Donald Trump to negotiate a two -count misdemeanor tactically and to go to a diversion on the gun crime. If that were the case, that should have been done much, much more quickly. And if I'd been running that office and someone took more than a year to get that squared away, that's a gross failure by the office. Look, I think that the U .S. attorney in Delaware has a lot of questions to answer in light of what the whistleblowers have said, but also, Hugh, just in light of how long it's taken to come to this conclusion. I'm not trying to imply that the guy did something unethical, but I don't know what the explanation for it is, and we need to have one.

Rep. David Kustoff: Committee Members Should Visit the Border
"So that's another thing that I plot our Republican leadership doing what you just talked about is taking the committee out of Washington D.C. Todd and taking him to really to real America to the border. My committee, the ways and means committee had a hearing a few weeks ago when Petersburg West Virginia and we've got another one coming up next week and in Oklahoma. But taking the hearings, Jim Jordan taking the judiciary committee to the border. I know Mark green's going to be taking his Homeland Security committee to the border. So that the members of Congress could hear directly from border control agents, local law enforcement, everybody. So that when we're looking at legislation and things that we can craft, try to address these problems that we're not operating in a vacuum, we're hearing from again from people with experience. And I'm glad that Biden went to what do you create? But you ought to go to the border. The ought to go to he ought to go to Ohio to east Palestine and talk to real people who have been afflicted by all these issues, including the border, which when I talked to local law enforcement, not only do they know about migrants, but the drugs and the fentanyl that are in our communities, whether it's my district or anybody else's, they're coming Todd directly through the southern border. They're being transported by a number of these people and the cartel. So bottom line is we've got a seal off that border.

"means committee" Discussed on Northwest Newsradio
"We're learning more about a home invasion earlier this month along second street and some Amish, which left a man injured, coma force Ryan Sims as the details from some Amish. Just after midnight on February 13th. According to these newly released court papers, a couple and their adult son were inside this home when one of them reported hearing a rattling noise at the front door. The homeowner told deputies the door that barged open and several people he did not know started shooting at it. Deputies say the man's adult son then returned gunfire hitting one of the suspects several times a week later como news learned that prosecutors believe this case is random. Prosecutors say Ricky Haynes is the suspect who was shot. They tell us he showed up at the hospital with a gunshot wound and was eventually tied to this home invasion. Come on, news learned Haines has been accused of 9 prior felony offenses, his bell currently, $2 million. What is the message that you have for people who hear of this guy's criminal history and the fact that he was even out in the first place? When those cases come to us, we're going to take action just like we did here. Immediately file the case and go before a judge and say, this person needs to be held on $2 million bail. The adult son who shot Haynes was also shot several times himself. Come a four is Ryan Sims, a proposal to require gun manufacturers and sellers to make sure their products are only sold to people legally entitled to buy them has passed the state Senate ways and means committee. Senate Bill 50 78 would also allow lawsuits against the makers if their products fall into the wrong hands and lead to harm. Republican senator Linda Wilson of Vancouver says the bill is unconstitutional and that similar bills have failed in court challenges. We know that if this is passed off the floor that there will be a lawsuit and that lawsuit will be paid for by the taxpayers. Democrats supporting the bill say only one court has struck down a similar law and that the others have been upheld in a number of states which haven't seen a wave of lawsuits. If the bill passes the rules committee, it will head to the Senate floor. A proposal to require safe staffing levels at hospitals has a couple more hurdles to cross in the state Senate. Northwest news radio's Ryan Harris has details. The Department of Labor and industries would be required to negotiate new safe staffing rules for direct caregivers, among other facets of Senate Bill 52 36, which the nurses support and the hospitals oppose. Senate ways and means committee members spent several hours hashing over an amendment to change some of the bill's language, thinking they'd have the updated Bill ready in time for the meeting to end, but democratic senator Mark mullet says they'd have been forced to wait until 9 p.m. for the vote. And that's why we just made the decision now that even though we did have an agreement on that striker, it might just be best, so we don't have to sit here for another three hours to just move the bill out without that ready. But we have an agreement from all parties involved. That will be the underlying Bill, along with some other things we determined in the last 5 hours that we have to fix. So the committee voted unanimously to move the bill without the amendment to the rules committee with the promise they'll finish sorting this all out next week. From there, a yes vote sends it to the Senate floor for final debate. Ryan Harris northwest news radio. Sketchy county is considering significantly higher rates for the island ferry details from northwest news radio's Jeff podio. The grimace island fairy is actually run by the county and not the state ferry system, meaning skagit county is solely responsible for its budget. But according to the skagit valley Herald, the ferry is being subsidized from the roads fund, resulting in less money for street maintenance. Operations manager, Rachel rose says fairy fees haven't been raised in several years. Those fares are no longer keeping up with the costs of operating the ferry today. So now a consulting firm has recommended raising ferry rates by more than 70%. The public will have a chance to comment on the proposal at a meeting early next week.

Look at something that you and I have been on the road now, I guess we started this 6, 7 years ago, it gets back in the Orlando. Orlando. And I know we were in Arizona, but look, all across the country, we've seen entrepreneurship amongst minorities be especially under the Trump administration, but it's really just sky high and the results were great. We had a booming economy and all that was because we actually got the government out of the way and we let these entrepreneurs in particular minority entrepreneurs really do their thing. And so for example, on the Hispanic entrepreneurship, it was never better than under the Trump administration, but blacks, Asians, et cetera. And so it actually all came about this book because I gave a testimony in the spring of last year in front of the entire House ways and means committee. And the Democrats were, of course, pushing their idea that the only way to get over the racial divide is for more government intervention, right? And I, of course, said, eh, I don't think so. I think the real way is for the government to get out of the way and to make sure that our small businesses thrive through lower taxes and lower regulation, which we all sought to be true and again was phenomenal during 2019, 2020. It all worked out before COVID. It was really phenomenal. So, but they didn't like that narrative. And in fact, it's kind of funny they were a couple of quotes here that I pulled out from that or from that testimony. They were troubled by the rhetoric and claimed that I was inappropriate and ignorant to the arguments and needs of the minorities. So how's that?

"Wanna ask you about what. Republicans according to the analysis from the joint committee on taxation may say forty two directly more than sixteen percent tax payers would see their taxes increase under the the. The bill is approved by the house. Ways and means committee will sign that bill as is coming out of that committee or will he insists on the changes that he will maintain his commitment that taxes will go up on people making four hundred thousand dollars a year. I have not looked at the Document or the report that you have put out obviously the president's or they have referenced. I should say that. The republicans put out Obviously the president's commitment remains not raising taxes for anyone making less than four hundred thousand dollars a year. there are some. And i'm not sure if this is the case in this report who argued that in the past companies have passed on these costs to consumers. I'm not sure if that's the argument being made in this report we feel that. That's unfair and absurd. And the american people would not stand for that. But i will take a closer look at this report and get you more substantive responsible It's absurd and unfair. If an american company raises its prices to maintain its profit margin. That's what happens every time. It's the democrats arguing against reality right now. Have they just forgotten how this works. Apparently they have forgotten how this works when you have a small business. Let's say a restaurant. You had a restaurant. Your restaurant is now having to pay higher wages. It's food costs have gone up and its profit. Margin has gone from a fifteen percent profit margin and that's being generous first restaurant down to ten percents and now it's taxes are going to go up as well. So what does the restaurant do. What does the restaurant do. You know it's owners have a financial incentive through the profit margin to keep the business open win. The profit margin goes away. They don't just keep the business open out of the goodness of their heart. 'cause they're not making any money they gotta feed their family. So what do they do. They raise prices. They pass the cost onto the consumer to maintain the ten percent profit margin. That's actually a small profit margin. You know what apple's profit merges off of iphone. Good gracious apple can afford it. It's a trillion dollar company your small businesses..

Biden wants to raise taxes on the wealthy and corporations. Here's why that's going to be hard
"Biden has said he wants profitable corporations to pay their fair share in taxes but under the latest tax legislation some companies would still be able to pay nothing. According to the democratic proposal approved this month by the house ways and means committee the top corporate tax rate would jump from twenty one percent to twenty six point five percent but our reporter richard rubin says the bill doesn't address the reasons that profitable companies sometimes don't pay taxes the company that aren't paying taxes or paying. None are often doing things that the government is encouraged them to do by giving them tax breaks the do it so for example that includes investing in equipment where you get a full and immediate deduction it includes doing corporate research so that you are you get a tax credit for that and i think what democrats are doing is they're saying look we know there's some companies out there that don't pay taxes and are profitable but we're not going to solve the equation for that. We're not gonna fix eight on that we're going to address what we see. Is maybe bigger issues. And they're going to focus on trying to encourage companies to do things that democrats want them to do invest in solar power invest in low income housing.

The bill will kick off in earnest today as the house ways and means committee. The education comedian labor committee began marking up their proposals and already there are tensions over the issues being voted on for example. We're told that the seven hundred sixty two billion dollars vision for education which includes more than four hundred fifty billion dollars for childcare at universal pre-k and hundreds of billions more for school infrastructure and free community. College won't likely make it to the white house intact. Likewise a battlefield limited resources is driving the fight over which healthcare proposals include pit into house against the senate and the white house. Now the dollar totally dictated by how much democrats can generate puts tax hikes and other revenue raisers. Which by the way is a huge area of contention itself. Democrats could find themselves with about one to two trillion dollars in revenue depending on how much they scaled back.
