- 0:00The Morning Show with Preston Scott sixty percent of the time. It works every
- 0:05time on news Radio one hundred point seven WFLA. We go from one debacle
- 0:17to another, talking about the Southern Border. Now talking about the Biden corruption
- 0:25crime syndicate. Big story in the press box, brought to you by a
- 0:29custom care dry cleaning, and we are joined by the founder of the Government
- 0:33Accountability Institute. He's best selling author and quite frankly, what tops off the
- 0:38resume must be a friend of the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Peter Schweitzer,
- 0:42Hello, sir, Hey, my friend, how are you doing?
- 0:45Buddy? I gotta tell you when you hit that tweet button? Sorry,
- 0:49I don't know X button what I can't get my mind around X. But
- 0:53when you said what you did last week, I think it was about Hey,
- 0:57anyone interested in reading what the law said is about bribery. I was
- 1:02fascinated by that. Tell our listeners, yeah, I mean, look,
- 1:07the White House position has been and a mainstream media position has been that well,
- 1:11look, there there's no evidence of bribery because there's no evidence yet that
- 1:15Joe Biden has received the dime. There's some dispute about that. But if
- 1:21you take that position at face value, the problem is that's not what the
- 1:25bribery law says. If you look at you eighteen US Code two oh one,
- 1:30bribery constitutes. This is the statute is bribery of public officials. It
- 1:34says if you quote give anything of value to any other person that means not
- 1:41just the politician, It could be a family member, it could be their
- 1:44chief of staff. It constitutes bribery. And of course, if you look
- 1:47at the law preston, there are numerous examples of people that politicians that have
- 1:53gone to jail because they didn't take money. But maybe they're adult kid did,
- 1:57or their spouse did, or they're chief of staff did. So it
- 2:01really, I think is important for all of us to keep in mind what
- 2:06the law actually says. And even if you route money to a family member
- 2:10to a series of LLCs, if there is in fact an exchange of a
- 2:15policy position in exchange for payments, whether the politician or not, that is
- 2:23bribery and that is a violation of federal law. It's almost inconceivable, though
- 2:30that Joe has not directly received funds throughout all of this, and there seems
- 2:37to be growing evidence Peter. Before he took office as the Resident of the
- 2:42United States, I had been playing at nauseum his admission on television of influencing
- 2:50the Ukrainian government and the firing of the special prosecutor or a state prosecutor,
- 2:55if you will. Wasn't that an absolute admission of what is likely going to
- 3:00turn out to be a crime. Yeah, I mean, I think that's
- 3:05one of several And if you look at the anatomy of that deal, it's
- 3:08pretty clear. I mean, let's keep in mind. Spring of twenty fourteen,
- 3:13Hunter Biden gets the million dollars a year deal with Barisma. Joe Biden
- 3:17knows about it. It's reported he has conversations with his son. We now
- 3:23know in the November of twenty fifteen, there's an email from a Brism executive
- 3:28to Hunter Biden and it says, Hey, we're not really happy with the
- 3:31scope of what you've been doing for us. But it says explicitly in the
- 3:37email there's one deliverable, and the deliverable we want is the heat to be
- 3:42taken off of the head of our company, Lachevski, and we want the
- 3:46prosecutor fired. It's that explicit and it uses the term deliverable. That's November
- 3:52of twenty fifteen December of twenty fifteen. We now know, based on the
- 3:57testimony of Devin Archer Hunter Biden's been this partner, that Hunter Biden and Barisma
- 4:01executives are in Dubai and they call Vice President Joe Biden and say we want
- 4:08the prosecutor fired. We know three months later the prosecutor is fired, and
- 4:13Joe Biden later says, I'm the one that did it because that I was
- 4:18going to withdraw a billion dollars in aid until you fire the prosecutor. The
- 4:23final, I think piece of evidence here that's so damning is the recent reporting
- 4:28from John Solomon that shows, based on Freedom of Information Act documents, that
- 4:34the State Department actually said, no, the prosecutor was making great progress on
- 4:40a fighting corruption that the billion dollars in age should be given because the progress
- 4:45being made. So the notion that everybody wanted the prosecutor fired and there's nothing
- 4:49to see here simply is not true. And you have Joe Biden taking a
- 4:56call from his son and from Barisma executives saying, fired this guy. And
- 5:00that's exactly what Joe Biden did while his son is getting paid by the company
- 5:05that wants a fire to me, that is damning evidence of bribery in action.
- 5:11The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven w
- 5:17FLA. When he writes a book, members of Congress on both sides of
- 5:28the aisle hold their breath and hope for the best. Mainstream media even pays
- 5:33attention. What they do with it can be different from book to book.
- 5:36But Peter Schweitzer an incredible investigative journalist, author and our friend here in The
- 5:44Morning Show with Preston Scott, Peter, there is no way that Barack Obama
- 5:48isn't aware of Joe's dealings in China and aware of his dealings with Ukraine.
- 5:56Is that why the soft hand with China now and the constant money flow to
- 6:00Ukraine? Is it because these officials know and have dirt about Joe Biden.
- 6:06I think absolutely it's a factor. I mean, look, if you look
- 6:10at Joe Biden, he was actually pretty hawkish towards China until he became Vice
- 6:15President of the United States and his sons started doing deals in China. Up
- 6:18until that point, he'd been critical about them for human rights and other issues
- 6:24that changed repeatedly. And in the case of Ukraine, let's remember you have
- 6:28this allegation this ten twenty three from the FBI saying that the head of Rhisma
- 6:33claims he bribed Joe Biden, that he gave five million to Joe and five
- 6:39million to Hunter Biden. If you read that FBI document, this is very
- 6:43important, Preston. One of the people said to be in that meeting when
- 6:46that claim is made was a Ukrainian government official that works for Zelenski. So
- 6:54you have a situation where a foreign corrupt oligarch is saying I bribed the President
- 7:00of the United States, and the Zelinsky government certainly knows it knows that that
- 7:04claim has been made. That is powerful leverage, and that's why we need
- 7:10to investigate and find out exactly what's going on here. There's been a lot
- 7:15of resistance to turning over bank records with this impeach when inquiry, that's going
- 7:18to change, it's going to come more quickly. Big news yesterday, Hunter
- 7:23Biden receives the two hundred and fifty thousand dollars payment from a Chinese company in
- 7:28twenty nineteen. The beneficiaries address that was listed on that wire transfer. The
- 7:33address is actually Joe Biden's residence in Delaware. This came out from the committee
- 7:40yesterday. So the entangling of the finances with Hunter and Joe gets more and
- 7:46more entangled every time we look at and more information comes out. Last question,
- 7:51which book? I mean, it's not red handed, I know,
- 7:56because this deception and this involvement in corruption goes back further than that book.
- 8:03But at what point did this start to unravel in your mind that Joe Biden
- 8:07was so deeply involved in Let's just call it what it is, corruption,
- 8:13Is it Secret Empires? Is it extortion? Which book? Yeah? I
- 8:18wrote a book in twenty eighteen called Secret Empires that first exposed the China deals
- 8:24and the Ukraine deals of the Biden family and also of Mitch McConnell, by
- 8:28the way, you and I have talked about. So there's plenty of blame
- 8:31to go around. But when that book came out in twenty eighteen, Team
- 8:35Biden's position was this is lunacy, there are no deals in China. When
- 8:41things really turned, I think was with the Hunter Biden laptop in twenty twenty,
- 8:48because that gave us forensic evidence what we had done was gathered corporate records,
- 8:52financial records in China and elsewhere to show that these deals were taking place,
- 8:56that Hunter was getting these sweetheart deals, that it was a secting Joe's
- 9:01policies. But the laptop gave us the roadmap of how it was done,
- 9:05and that's when I think things started to shift. And that's why I think
- 9:09they work so hard to suppress that story in twenty twenty. But we've been
- 9:13working on this really going back in terms of researching back in twenty seventeen,
- 9:18and I have to say it's very gratifying to see that the truth is coming
- 9:22out. Whatever Congress ends up doing, whatever the legal course of action,
- 9:26is the fact that we were on this so long ago and finally now it's
- 9:33being recognized for what it is. Is there a gratifying for the entire team
- 9:37here at GAI. Grateful that you are on our side. Sir, Thank
- 9:41you very much for all the work that you and your team do, and
- 9:45thank you for being on the program for a few minutes this morning. Peter,
