♪ ♪ >> sean: and welcome to "hannity," our institutions in this country, so many collapsing before our eyes, it is really scary, earlier today, hitting the new york judge, author and goron delivering in the civil fraud trial, had summary judgment at the very beginning, get ready, no need for a jury, you are guilty. let's just go to the penalty phase, the order president trump to pay more than $350 million barring him from serving as an officer or director of any new york corporation for three years. imagine a judge, just got canceled and the state for three years. wow. now did not stop there, also banned trump for three years for applying for loans for any financial institutions that are registered with new york, ordered that eric trump and donald trump jr. pay fines of more than $400 million each and banned them from serving as officers of any new york corporation or illegal activity

for two years. now the legal sports person reacting to the statement saying this verdict is a manifest injustice, plain and simple. it is the culmination of a multiyear politically fueled witch hunts that was designed to take down donald trump. and will join us in just a moment. now on the social earlier today, rallying against the attorney general of new york letitia james, before calling the trial election and their parents and a witch hunt. and on the platform formerly known as twitter, donald trump jr., he said this in part to. we have now reached a point where your political beliefs combined with the venue that your case is heard are the primary determinants of the outcome, not the facts of the case, sadly that is 100% true and our country tonight. earlier tonight, trump spoke briefly on the meeting outside mar-a-lago in palm beach,

florida. take a look. >> it's a very sad day for in my opinion the country. new york state judge just ruled and he is crooked as you can get. and a lot of people expected something like this, but not for the amount this is a very dishonest man, a man overturned already on this case four times. but a crook in new york state judge just ruled that i have to pay a fine of $355 million for having built the perfect company. he ruled against me before you even got the case. he rolled against me and said that i was guilty and did not know what i was guilty of before even got the case. and letitia james, that's another case altogether. she is a horribly corrupt attorney general and it's all having to do with election interference. >> sean: every american should be concerned tonight, this is nothing but further weaponization of justice in our great country, the u.s. of a., all design in this case to get donald trump by any means necessary. this case was brought by the radical new york

attorney general who based her entire campaign on taking down one family, one organization, one man donald trump, the trump organization, the trump family. she complained that he committed financial fraud by inflating the values of his assets and any and simply was fulfilling a campaign problem promise. >> i will never be afraid to challenge this illegitimate president when our fundamental rights are at stake. and can be indited by these defenses. >> he is going to know my name. >> yes, we need to focus on donald trump and his abuses, we need to follow the money. we need to find out where he has laundered money. we need to find out whether he is engaged in conspiracy. >> it's important that everybody understands that it's coming to an end. >> i look forward to going to

the office of the attorney general every day, showing him and defending your rights and then going home. >> sean: leftist radical judge, more guilty of evaluations then the defendants in this case. and remember and september, before they went, why have a jury, this is exactly what he did. and the trial of his was beyond bizarre and on full display, opposing and smirking at cameras and the center of attention was very clear, he loved every second. one of the more bizarre aspects of the trial is the ridiculous valuation of a place called mar-a-lago or palm beach, cited by and goron and his september decision. he valued it at a whopping $18 million, now to highlights,

truly how insane this is, let me show you an example of palm beach real estate and i know for most americans this sounds crazy, but this is the price of real estate in palm beach, florida. just minutes down the road from mar-a-lago, this is a vacant lot, a 2-acre lot, this property, right there you can see the vacant lot listed for $150 million, another lot ne nearby, but just an empty plot of dirt, and listed for $200 million. mar-a-lago on the other hand is an iconic 60,000 square-foot residential property, and by the way it is stark property with other buildings on the property, it is a landmark and has a beach club that is associated with it with a whopping 58 bedrooms, some 33 bathrooms sitting on 20 plus acres of land, uniquely positioned both on the intercoastal waterway and the oceanfront beach. and they you to believe that this is worth a fraction of the smaller empty dirt lots.

not to get to this judgment, the judge pushed this insane valuation throughout the entire case, why? to justify this insane judgment. the judge is far more guilty of phony evaluations than anyone in this case, and is this justice in america? really? if you are a liberal, do you have an open mind? can you not add the money up here and see what is going on? no of course in new york i'm sure people are not too interested in facts, they are interested in a politically motivated takedown. and here is the real question could who is the victim here? because nobody got hurt. no bank got hurt, no insurance company ever complain. none of them. all loans were replayed on full from time. and one deutsche bank executive testified in his defense telling the court that bankers new client reports of their network was subjective or subject to estimates. and took their own such financial statements all lenders

and all insurance companies, they all have a fiduciary responsibility to do so. no company will lend or ensure hundreds of millions of dollars without doing their due diligence, that's insane. and on top of that, every single contract that donald trump had with these lenders and insurance companies, they all included a disclosure with a very specific bit of language and it telling them, use your own appraisals. don't use ours. so i ask again, where's the victim here? that's right, there isn't a victim. there's never been a case like this a totally victimless political witch hunt which a civil trial, as they called it. this is what we talk about a dual justice system and weaponization of our legal system in america. they had to take back to bring their claims forward, and now here we are years later, letitia james feels the need to bring the case against the runaway favorite for the republican nomination. heading right into an election

season. how convenient is that? now leftists in america are probably celebrating, what happens if one day they come for you? here with reaction, legal spokeswoman here with us. you know, i'm not going to act like i was surprised, because i wasn't surprised, this was a predetermined outcome. in so many ways, and the judge stuck throughout the entire trial to the insane valuation of mar-a-lago at $18 million, and is far closer to a billion dollars if you just extrapolate out a 2-acre lot with $2 million on sale for $2 million in palm beach. i have many more such examples. so the question is, how does the judge to get away with being far more guilty of the very thing they said donald trump was guilty of? >> i think the biggest message i can give the american people tonight is that he is not going to get away with it. latetia james is not going to

get away with it. the biden adminstration is not going to get away with it. there is a point and i want to say something that is different than i normally do. we have the order now, and i am free to speak. and let me just say a somebody who sat there in the trial, sean, and i am so happy you invited me on to say this, they will not get away with it. we will come at them, we will come hard. and we will literally fight until the truth comes out. there was nothing wrong. president trump has done nothing wrong. all he has done is won a campaign and that is scaring them, because they know when he goes back in november 2024, he is going to clean house. and that is truly the problem. it's not about mar-a-lago's worth. it's not worth 18 million, it's worth probably 1.5 million at the least. it is not worth trump tower, wall street, that's not what this is about coming you know it and i know it. this is a new form of election interference. this is a campaign that cannot

succeed with biden and kamala, so they have to weaponize and have them back them, fund them, and come after donald trump including his children, his company, employees are working for him. doing their job, that is the desperation of our country at this moment which is about to go into world war. this is crazy. and its derangement syndrome, that's the best thing i can explain to you, and just know this, and for all of those that understand what is going on, we will win it, we will fight, because the facts are on our side. there are politicized judges. there are the ga's. and i have no doubt we will succeed. >> sean: tell us what the strategy is going for? >> it's very simple, the left-wing media unfortunately will report cases, and another case that just went through in new york, the great state of new york which is completely

fallen apart. by strategy using the facts in the transcripts, we make a record, even when they try and gagged us. even when they try and tell us, i'm going to put you in jail if you reject a powerpoint slide that proves your case. it does not matter. i object anyway. we made a record, and the record is clear, because her orders are transparent. they show a completely biased transcript. they show that they hearing the law is not on their side. so they have the election season. that's not how we win. and that truly is my strategy, that's all of our strategy, we will use the transcript, we will use the evidence and witnesses, the real facts, not the media. and no disrespect to the media, but i was there, we did nothing wrong, though statements of financial condition were undervalued, we did nothing wrong. imagine you are dragging children through this, and people that did their jobs and

nothing wrong, that's how desperate they are because they are going to lose. and a person who literally cannot walk up the stairs without falling down, what do you have to do? lie, cheat, and steal. we have political law affair. and i have zero concern about that. >> sean: after that the supreme court if necessary, is that correct? >> absolutely, absolutely. it's very simple. i mean, everything -- this is the lower level, we should not have been in this court, should depend in the commercial division, because they use the commercial consumer fraud statute against a private company that should not of been used, but we are here now, so now we have to deal with the judge who did not give us a jury who literally had -- miss james had her shoes off in court, let's not forget that, let's close it out an argument. she had a starbucks coffee in

her hand, and she was in the back with her shoes off and a coffee. and going this is the state of the country, they are so important that they know they don't even have to do the job. they don't have to do the work, they will let their people do it and sit there and they're going to win. that's a problem, so we will go to the next level and to people that aren't running on a campaign, running to get trump before they are in office, and they will win. it's importantly the way it's going to go. >> sean: if we had equal justice equal application of our laws, that would mean that he would be brought up in a civil case for giving false valuations of mar-a-lago, and i just gave a small amount of evidence that i can give you a voluminous amounts of evidence that his appraisal of mar-a-lago was so outrageous, but they needed that to do this. all right, thank you.

we will be watching the appeals as they go forward. thank you. joining us now with more analysis, harvard law professor, and wrote a best-selling book, and when did you get the title of that book? >> i did not make it up, i wish i were creative and original, but i got it from obviously letitia james campaign. she ought to be brought up before the bar, you should not have an elected prosecutor campaigning on the promise to get a particular defendant. now if she did not get him, she would lose the election, this is a variation of stalin and barrio back in the 1930s when the head of the kgb says to stalin, showing the man, i will find you the crime. this is show me man, whom and we know who it is spiritually told us who it was, donald trump, and we will find you the fraud even though there is no harm. generally and our legal system,

particularly under the system of equity with a jury trial, if there is no harm, no foul, no harm, no crime, but when you have no damages at all, usually you can do a multiple. say this a million dollars of damages, you can get $3 million of fine. but when you have zero damages, no matter how many times you multiply it, zero plus times whenever it is all still 0. so it's outrageous, now i don't know whether it's going to be hers in the appellate division, that's also elected judges, mostly by democrats in a county which is 85% democrats, the new york court of appeals which is the highest court may indeed, give justice, generally finds like this are reduced considerably, and that may very well happen in this case, but this tells us so much about the politicization of our justice system. the weaponization of our system. and it's so dangerous, because it will mean that businesspeople are not going to want to run for

office, because they know if they run for office, partisans are going to go after them and investigate them, figure out some way of getting them like over evaluating. this is a judge which over evaluates when he wants to burn no damage, then under evaluates when he wants to, mar-a-lago, $18 million. he's just willing to manipulate the numbers to get them to the results he wanted. i hope the courts will look at this with a very, very, very stringent guide. >> sean: let me stay on the issue of valuations, because they are very subjective, the deutsche bank executive was 100% right. any lending institution, and the case of donald trump, you are talking about deals that are hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars. nobody is going to lend you that much or ensure that much of a property without doing their own valuation. they have a fiduciary responsibility to do so.

there was a disclaimer that said, don't trust our valuations within the application. it was in every single one. nobody was hurt. nobody was hurt. they all got paid back on time with interest, that they had agreed to. the only one really most guilty of valuation problems was the judge. the judge to take a billion-dollar property and stick with $18 million valuation, please, i will buy that right now. i will find $18 million and i will buy mar-a-lago for 18 million and put it on the market tomorrow for a billion. i would like to be a billionaire one day. >> you might get a porta potty for 18 million and palm beach. the damages here like the judge are daft and asinine, because under the law, damages must always reflect the measurable harm coming here there was no

harm. and they were injured, just looking at the huge profits. so how can consumer protection statute be used to hold liable a businessman for a consumer harm that does not exist is one of the great legal mysteries. so i think at the very least, the new york's highest court should knock it down even though the entire court is composed of seven justices by democrats, but latetia james knew she was playing with house money here. liberal courts and a liberal child judge who wore his anti-trump bias on his sleeve, arrogant smog, and guilty of fraud, ignoring completely all the bank executives that said we weren't too defrauded or deceived, he said they falsified visual statements ignoring that it never prepared the financials, and hire top lawyers, accountants,

real estate experts, they calculated the assets, and then the banks as you pointed out did due diligence, they concluded donald trump had more than enough to secure the loans, and wanted to lend more money, they still do. so i think that engoron has proved charles dickens right when he went with the wall. >> sean: thank you both. coming up next, we have more of what we call law fare, the left is using it against president trump, latest sara carter has an exclusive report from the disaster trip to east palestine in ohio, and i have a very, very special message and let's just say i will be educating the media mob on how abusively corrupt and biased they are. you don't want to miss my message to the media mob straight ahead. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> sean: as we continue our coverage, tonight of all of the breaking news, former president donald trump is reacting to the outrageous verdict against him in new york state calling the decision in the case of a corrupt witch hunt, election interference, just before the time he spoke earlier tonight, new york attorney general tish james wade in as well, claiming that justice has been served and seeing this ruling proves that no one is above the law. and proves that we have a shameful two-tiered justice in our great country. here with reaction, former florida attorney general pam bondi and former acting attorney general. on the issue of florida, okay, i showed him -- an empty lot and a busy corner,

and -- it's for sale for 150, $200. those homes on the intercoastal and within the street in front of it, worth over $200 million. and other homes go for more than that at this particular point, i know it sounds crazy and anyone living anywhere else, but that's how crazy it is. down here, how did the judge get away with trying to say mar-a-lago's 18 million? >> sean, they want on appeal, that's the bottom line. it's almost a joke, it is a joke that they are trying to do that. i'm in palm beach right now. i was in mar-a-lago today, one of the beachfront units is valued at double 18 million. it's ridiculous what they are doing legally. it will not stand up on appeal, but sean, they do not care. they are trying to damage president trump prior to the election. that's all they care about. and as allina hobbits has said, they will continue to fight and this will be overturned on appeal. the valuations do not make

sense, but it does not matter to them, because they are just out to get him, they are trying to do the ultimate election interference, and it's not going to work. the people see through it. >> sean: let's get your take, matt whitaker, working as an attorney general, let me ask you as you look at this case and you look at an attorney general running for office saying they are going after one person, one organization, one family, and it follows through, i guess you can argue that the attorney general of new york through the fulfilled her campaign promise of today, is that true? >> it is true, and we are a nation of laws, not men, but we lived in a place where the left-wing democrats in those blue states and blue jurisdictions are solely focused on taking donald trump down. when you misapply the facts and the law in the wrong court, i mean, this is somewhere that

ultimately the u.s. supreme court has to get involved, because donald trump has been denied fundamental due process and in my experience, this is how republics fall. and this is where we are as a nation. this is any republic time, and this is the kind of law fair and outcome based prosecution that is just going to doom us. so we need good people. statesmen and states women up, and say it is not fair, this is not america. >> sean: really isn't, i really worry about the future of the country. pam, how do you feel, new york is what it is, and extremely deep blue state where you have radicals in government and you have radicals on the bench. i've said this before, i don't care if it's a civil trial or a criminal trial, i do not believe donald trump can get a fair trial there. what you can in new york city? 12% of the total votes? it's even worse in d.c. coming

at 5%, fulton county, george a little bit more, maybe 20% range. so how do you go into these venues and how do you expect someone to get a fair trial? i don't believe it's possible. and that's a big problem for the president. >> it is, sean, and that's why they chose these venues as well, because he had these radical prosecutors who have these radical attorney general's. you know, the people of new york, they care about crime, crime is at an all-time high right now, yet she is out there going after donald trump on a charge that has never been used in history of new york. every case, mark my words, every single case will be overturned on appeal. she campaigned on getting donald trump heard she is fulfilling her promise. she needs to be out of office. as a former attorney general, it's reprehensible what she is doing to him. as well as these other d.a.s around the country.

>> sean: i agree with that, what would you advise, matt whitaker, the trump attorneys to be thinking about tonight. >> well, first of all, keep fighting. this is a righteous fight, it is good versus evil, and so, this is something they need to make sure that they are ready at every turn, but at the end of the day, they need to make sure that they are making these arguments and this is one of the things that i thought they did a really good job even after this despised judge issued a judgment on the liability phase and then just the damages phase they were able to get a lot of facts and they rolled in college professors that suggested that this accounting was proper and were able to get in experts on valuation and able to get in the banks that you mentioned in earlier today and able to say we weren't defrauded. we would loan him more money if you wanted it. i think they need to make a good record, because at the end of the day, it matters with the court of appeals does. it matters with the supreme court does, but this is also the court of public opinion, and the american people are going to issue the final

verdict in november 2024. >> sean: pam, matt, we will see what happens. when we come back, i have a message for the media mob, by the way, joe biden is following this impeachment inquiry to be dropped, we will explain why that is not going to happen and why it should not happen, and my message to the media mob and the fbi. they have a lot of explaining to do to you, the american people. straight ahead. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> sean: this is very important, last night we learned that special counsel david weiss is the guy that wanted to give hunter a pass and then the special deal, the plea deal that wasn't anything. but anyway, then became the special prosecutor.

david was now charged the fbi informant, the one that was a source for the source that alleges bribery, and false information in the fbi, that's what the agent was charged with, the informant was charged with. and of course democrats, they are getting with this news. congressman jamie raskin and even joe biden himself, they are calling for the impeachment inquiry to be dropped. but he was taking a very different tune last year when he agreed that this very fbi confidential human source was very, very credible. this is jamie raskin, not a friend of mine. take a look. >> do you also see the sources as highly credible paid six figures of information that they have been able to thread, would you say that that is accurate as well? >> yes, there is a confidential human source that the fbi works with who has proven to be very credible who reported a conversation with someone else.

>> sean: first there's 1023 which was very but a very small part of what is a large body of evidence in the inquiry, and we will get to the fbi's latest failure in a minute. but none of this negates the fact that joe biden lied about his knowledge of his son's business dealings, you might remember, ever talk to my son, my brother, or anybody for that matter about their farm business deals, remember? >> mr. vice president, how many times have you spoken to your son about his business dealings? >> i've never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings, i've never discussed with my son or my brother or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses period, and what i would do the same thing we did in our administration, it will be an absolute wall between personal and private and the government. >> do you stand by your statement that you did not

discuss any of your sons overseas business dealings? >> yes, i stand by that statement. >> sean: okay, that was a complete lie, the oversight committee and found $200,000 in direct payments to joe biden, that could be part of an influence peddling scheme, the committee received testimony from devon archer, remember him, hunter's friend where he says that then vice president joe biden was on the phone, he heard during 20 of the business meetings when he was meeting with foreign business partners. and joe biden even dined with hunter's foreign business associates, for example at the cafe milano. while he was being paid millions and millions of dollars from these foreign sources. now people like russian oligarch come remember her, 3.5m business with hunter, according to devon archer, even invested another hundred million dollars in a real estate venture, and what about that what's that message, remember that? the one that hunter sent to his

chinese business associate with this eve cfc, the chinese energy conglomerate, 2017 that reads in part "i am sitting here with my father, we would like to understand why the commitment has not been fulfilled between all of the people my father knows and my ability to hold a grudge, you will regret this decision. we are sitting here waiting for your phone call, and according to the house oversight committee, wow, magically $5 million was wired to hunter on these accounts he has from the sea cfc conglomerate only days after that message. what a coincidence. with new information, last night, also does not negate that vice president joe biden leveraged a billion u.s. taxpayer dollars were getting a ukrainian prosecutor by the name of viktor shokin fired. he is being fired because he was investigating let's see, burisma where hunter was being paid millions, what was the result of the firing, oh, hunter biden again admittedly addicted to

drugs at the time had no experience in the energy sector, oil, gas, coal, no experience with ukraine, he continued as a result of his father's actions as vice president to be paid millions of dollars to continue to sit on that energy board. now today, we just obtained tony about belinsky's testimony to the house oversight committee where he told lawmakers and let me quote, i want to be crystal clear, from my direct personal experience and what i have come to learn, it's clear to me that joe biden was the brand being sold by the biden family. and he said, joe biden was more than a participant and a beneficiary of this business. he was an enabler, despite being found by a complex scheme to maintain plausible deniability. so, sorry, no, this impeachment inquiry should not be dropped. yes, the 1023 should raise a lot of questions, which means it's now time to move on to the fbi.

they have a lot of explaining to do. here's a statement from senator charles grassley as he released the report at the time and this is about the fbi informant that is now being charged. he said the informant behind the fd 1023 was indeed a long serving trusted fbi source used by the agency for criminal investigations since the obama administration. 2010 to be exact. in fact, he was so trusted that to the provided him authorization to "engage in illegal activity for investigative purposes. but when presented with information from a source that the agency so trusted for what, now 14 years? the fbi is exposed by senator grassley, they sat on that 1023 document and did so for years. still working for the fbi and without any performance of any due diligence, they never looked into it. so it's clear that only after

senator grassley made the 1023 public did the fbi then investigate the allegations of the document. senator grassley is absolutely right. but this is not the first time that the fbi was burned by a trusted source. does the name christopher steele for example ring a bell? his so called steele dossier, remember? that was the entire basis of the trump-russia collusion hoax. it was all a complete lie, the dossier. hillary clinton's campaign, they paid for the steele dossier. remember? they funneled money, cash or a law firm that hired an opera research firm that then hired former mi6 agent christopher steele, none of the dossier was ever proven to be true. all eyes was christopher steele ever charged? no, i wonder why. but that did not stop the media mob. they ran with that story for three long years, peddling why after lie after lie, conspiracy theory, conspiracy theory after

another, you might remember. take a look. >> the salacious allegations laid out in that dossier compiled by a former british agent christopher steele, some of those allegations have been verified. >> the allegations of the dossier have been cooperated in the last few years of repeated contacts between the trump campaign and russian officials, people tied to russian intelligence. >> parts of the infamous dossier have proven to be true. >> forgive me for saying, but nothing in these memos have thus far been conclusively disproven. >> a lot of people did not leave christopher steele's dossier either when it first came out, but the remarkable thing is over time, there has been more and more cooperation that has come out over it. >> allegations in this christopher steele dossier and he went through the timeline very well a few moments ago are stunning. >> how much of this is true, and we have been able to cooperate parts of it, interestingly, christopher steele, this well respected british former mi6

officer may have recognized and know that the russians were intervening on the behalf of one of the u.s. presidential candidates before our own intelligence agencies. >> you know, i think we are going to have to stop calling at the infamous dossier. increasingly it's accurate dossier. >> and looked out there, getting truer and truer and truer. >> sean: now where is nbc? i understand that they hired rachel maddow, the truth conspiracy theorists. where's her apology? where's the apology? are they going to issue corrections? i've not seen any to date, what about fake news cnn? the media mob and the cohorts, and the fake phony famed outreach, and christopher steele or his dossier. and peddling that for nearly three years, and pushing

conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory about the collusion hoax, and there's still a lot of the family that they need to answer for. one last question, why have so many in the mob, why have they ignored the syndicate story, and some of the photos, russia, china, ukraine, romania, kazakhstan, mexico, and many other countries, not a peep, not a word. they are protecting the one to the reelection campaign, just like they contribute it to his first election run, just like they protected hillary clinton, as james comey said on july 2016 after discovering top-secret information on the servers and discovering the emails that were raised with something we never heard of called bleach bit and

devices destroyed with hammers and sim cards removed, no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute unless you are donald trump, then you will get right in. now coming up, joe biden by the way, and i would like the apologies, i like the same standard applies. three years, layer after layer after layer of lie after lie after lie. no apologies. no corrections. nothing. joe biden took it to east palestine ohio. a little late, sara carter has the report on what the people of east palestine think about your president straight ahead. r usable ead the disclaimer on turbotax free edition. musical

resting. his very light schedule every day. he does next to nothing most days of the week, because he is not capable of it. so what was this all about? >> well, three days this week alone to your point, the president had no public appearances on his schedule. tuesday, wednesday, and thursday, and whoever is advising the president, public appearances lately when he actually makes them really should be updating their linkedin page and get that resume ready, because they should be fired. an overwhelming number of east palestine residents did not want this president to come at this point. almost 380 days later. let's think about what that means. the kansas city chiefs have won not one, but two super bowls since this toxic derailment happened. so this has zero upside at this point, and only reminds people, those that were impacted on eastern ohio and western pennsylvania to this point, that donald trump was there shortly

after this catastrophe happen. overall, these residents have every right to be for lack of a better word pissed. and they feel like they have been abandoned by this president. and the fact that residents are still suffering from health issues. joe biden values again, the political over the people. and by the way, what was biden's excuse again for not going there over the last 380 days, because he cannot find the time? the guy who is on vacation more than clark griswold. and right now as we speak using delaware and is multibillion-dollar beach house in delaware. so look, joe biden is the president of the united states, not the president of the people who agree with him, but you know, this is what this looks like at this point, doesn't it? >> sean: wonder if he has top secret classified documents they are and four locations, but no raids, but that's american injustice today. pretty sad today. thank you, both. straight ahead.
