thanwek thank you. she didn't have the powers to declassify. it's a big difference. and neither did joe, you know,ei joe didn't have your mind. >> have a drind nok. it's a little bit cooler than it was. it's pretty hot out here. thank you. happy birthday. happy birthday. great. but and welcome to hannity. and we continue coverage of donald j. trump. he is at bedminster. we have full coverage analysis, my monologue straight ahead. nice birthday. wonderful birthday, daryl saying happy birthday. i was with ours, with eric

and laura, the kids. >> happy birthday, grandma happy and nice. oh, great. they just got charged with. they went for 100 years approximately. if you add them all up, a fake . a fake 400 years ago. thank you, darling. that's so nice. it's a wonderful birthday. so we're going to make it into the greatest birthday of all. >> well, when hillary then deleted and acid washed, nobody does that because of the expense, but it's pretty conclusive 33,000 emails in defiance of a congressional subpoena already launched. the subpoena was there and she decided to delete acid wash and then smash and destroy her cell phones with a hammer. >> and then they say, i participated in obstruct. now think of it. that's called obstruction. >> there's never been obstruction as grave as that.

she did this in the face of everything. and yet nobody did anything about it. the fbi, the doj protected her, did not issue subpoenas, did not use a grand jury, did not execute search warrants. and then the corrupt head of the fbi, james comey, declared no reasonable prosecutor would bring a case. >> can you believe it? >> and that was just one of many items, hillary clinton broke the law and she didn't get indicted. >> joe biden the law. >> and in many other ways, we're are finding out and so far has not gotten indicted. >> i did everything right and they indicted me. but, you know, we're serving as a great example, the case of bill clinton's national security adviser. remember that sandy berger, he was caught stealing documents from the national archives, very big ones, very important

ones by stuffing them in his pants. >> that's pretty. and putting them also in his socks. and he destroyed and cut the tape with scissors, cut them up. what berger did was highly illegal, but he was given nothing. >> no jail time, nothing, nothing happened. there are countless other examples. bill clinton, who i happen to like, hard to believe right before i did this, i was actually quite friendly with him. nice guy. they should have used him a little bit more as an adviser in the 2016 election. he said, you know, you better get to wisconsin. you're going to lose. no, we're not. you better get to michigan. >> you're going to lose. no, we're not. they did bill clinton lost the nuclear codes and absolutely nothing was done about him. >> lost the nuclear codes. >> the george w bush white house lost 22 million emails,

a record. nara cannot assure a complete transfer of any of the bush records. a document shredding truck was spotted on the way to cheney's house. >> can you imagine? hillary clinton took hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of furniture, china, flatware, rugs and more from the white house, and she wasn't prosecuted. how about that? when she took the furniture and the china? how about if trump did that? yeah. think trump would have a little problem. >> they horrific violations of my rights by. a crooked joe biden's weaponized department of injustice are unthinkable. i unthinkable what's happened so bad for our country democrats all they lawlessly pierced my attorney client privilege with lawyers what they did to lawyers, what they have done to our lawyers, lawyers, all of our lawyers, they've done things that were absolute

horrible and unthinkable. the leaking been unbelievable and highly illegal. they leak. we've learned more about from "the washington post", "new york times", about the dodgers boxes hoax. it's a boxes hoax then from prosecutors themselves. we want to read about it. you pick up "the washington post", which is not doing well, or you pick up the new york times. but they'll do better now because of these things. >> you know, this the only way they survive, but they'll end up dying. >> but it's not supposed to be that way. we don't want to learn from the times. we don't want to learn from leaks. we want to learn from the people we're supposed to learn from. it's like a leak in serve in washington. >> but we learned nothing about biden bribery scheme or special counsel robert herz investigation. robert herr is doing the biden investigation. >> he's a very respected, very nice person. very nice person. mine's not such a nice person

mine's a deranged lunatic, which are many times the magnitude of ours in both number and severity. that's the prosecutor that they he has found nothing. he totally exonerated mike. i'm happy about that. mike did nothing wrong, but he happened to have classified documents in his house. but they exonerated him. and biden is. a different story. i mean, so much. you have to really think about what i said as a senator. he took all of those documents. it's unprecedented the prosecutor in the case. i will court. our case is a. i've him deranged. >> jack smith. i wonder what his name used to be. jack smith. it sounds so innocent. jack smith. what's his name? jack smith. he's a very nice man. he's a behind the scenes guy. but his record is absolutely atrocious. >> he does political hit jobs.

he's been known to viciously arrest a certain governor. you know, the governor, bob mcdonnell of virginia, and absolutely ruined his life and the life of his family, all these wonderful family members. >> i knew them only to have the case overturned. eight to nothing by the supreme court. he destroyed that man and he destroyed that family. and by the way, i will tell you, i'm here and. >> i love you all. and we can take it. but what these thugs what these thugs have done to my family is a disgrace. i will tell you that. i say it to all of the fake news because there's a lot of it. >> back to look what they did to my family. and that young man right there ,he's answered more subpoenas than any human being in the history of the world.

and you know what? they have nothing after all of those subpoenas, literally thousands of them, congress, fake counsel's mueller report, all of this he did is answer subpoenas all the time. >> at least he's become experienced at that. >> congratulations. but eric is fantastic. >> and what he and don ivanka and the whole group, that's what they've gone through. and these are serious people. these are serious people. but what he's done to my family, what they have done to my family, is horrible he also tried to railroad john edwards on a completely bogus legal theory that didn't hold up in court. it's no wonder this raging lunatic was shipped off to the hague to war criminals using globalist tribunals, not beholden to the constitution or the rule of law. two things jack smith clearly disdained you take a look at this guy. he looks like a , but then

i watched him make a speech other than he was trembling because it wasn't his territory . it feels much safer in the inner sanctum of the department of injustice, where he can be in his room and scream people. he's a raging and uncontrolled trumpeter, as is his wife, who also happened to be the producer of that michelle obama. >> puff piece. >> this total puff piece. >> this is the guy i've got. don't forget, this persecution is being done by the same weaponized agencies that for seven years have been running illegal psychological warfare campaigns. the american people, much as if they were trying to destabilize a foreign country from the russia, russia, russia hoax to the no collusion mueller witch hunt to impeachment. hoax number one. impeachment hoax number two, the 51 lying intelligence offers. how about them? they said it's russia disinformation.

and they knew it wasn't. which made about, according to some of the great pollsters that are right here made from anywhere from a 10 to 17 point difference. and yet we still got more votes than any sitting president in history in this second election. and we actually did much better in the second election than we did in the first election. the fake dossier paid for by the democrats. >> how about the fake dossier? remember that one? >> you think that was easy to go home and say hello, darling, how are you? >> when they read about that wasn't easy at. >> all spying on my campaign. we caught them spying on my campaign. >> the fbi twitter files and so much more. >> it's all been a battle of disinformation. >> one thing after the other, and all to protect the radical left misfits. it's also no coincidence these charges against me came down the very same day.

evidence revealed joe biden took a $5 million bribe from ukraine, took a $5 million bribe. >> but the fbi and, the justice department, don't even want to talk about it. they showed something on television tonight. it had zero time on the three major network, zero. but my impeachment had almost all the time. i think i had 351 minutes. they had no minutes. >> okay. i think a lot of people are going to vote. >> yeah, i think a lot of people are going to. >> i will tell you, i just left miami and i've never seen love in the streets like that. >> i've never seen we've seen a lot of love. i've never seen love like that because they know. they know what we all go through. they know what we've gone through. and they see it and they're smart. and, you know, many of those people coming from cuba, venezuela, other countries, they've seen this happening to their countries. i used to say that the united states, if it keeps going this

way, it's going to be venezuela on steroids. and now we're buying oil from venezuela. can you believe we have more liquid gold under our feet than any other nation? but we're buying tar from venezuela and we're refining it in houston, the dirtiest, worst oil probably anywhere in the world. and we're refining it so you can imagine what's going up with the air and our beautiful stuff we're not taking out of the ground and making a lot of money and paying off debt and reducing still further, which we were in the process of doing. they want to distract from the real espionage and the real crime. so let's use president trump to do so. let's go out and let's indict president trump so they don't talk about the $5 million bribe. just yesterday, senator grassley revealed that the burisma executive who allegedly the bribe reportedly has crooked joe on tape, they have 17 tapes. >> i understand that he must be a nice guy to deal with,

like the guy from burisma. nice company. they got him and hunter and 17 different tapes, supposedly. but the fbi isn't showing them. >> remember, they impeached me for asking a simple question about biden's corrupt dealings in ukraine and now they see that once again. i was right. i was right. i was right. joe biden and the radical left can foreign bribes and be totally protected republicans all you must finally get tough. you've got to get tough. you got to get tough and you got to show when you arrest your leading political opponent ,no longer have a democracy when people are allowed to pour . our open borders and our elections are rigged. our country is in very serious trouble. when inflation is allowed to rage, when energy independence and dominance we had in dependance and dominance, we were going to be soon very, very dominant. within six months we're going to dominate the whole world with energy, a fortune.

>> we will going to be paying off debt and lowering taxes at a level that nobody's ever seen. and they came in and they ended it. >> but when that's taken away from us, when interest rates and taxes spiral upward in an uncontrolled way, when murders are allowed to roam murderers is a horrible killers. murderers are allowed to roam the streets of our democrat run cities unchecked. but the incompetent district attorney in new york indicts trump for a crime that everybody agrees. every pundit, everybody. there is no crime. but murderers go out and nobody ever even comes and knocks on their door and they know they're there and they know their rooms and they know their locations. and they're roaming our cities all over and. some of them are coming in right now through our borders. but then you have a nation that, as we are, is in serious serious decline. >> we have a nation in serious decline. >> if the communists get away with this, it won't stop

with me. they will not hesitate to ramp up their persecution of christians, pro-life activists, parents, school board meetings, and even future republican candidates, which they do. >> we must end it permanently. >> we must end it immediately. now that the seal so important is broken. >> the seal is broken by what they've done. they should never have done this. this was an unwritten rule. you just don't unless. >> it's really bad, but you just don't. but the seal is now broken. >> in addition to closing the border and removing all of the criminal elements that have illegally invaded our country, making america, energy independent and even dominant again and immediately the war between russia and ukraine. i'll have it ended in 24 hours . i will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in

the history of the united states of america. >> joe biden and the entire biden crime family. name a special prosecutor and all others involved with the destruction of our elections, our borders and our country itself. they're destroying our country. and then when i'm reelected, and we will get reelected, we have no chance. >> we're not going to have a country anymore. i will totally obliterate the deep state. we will obliterate the deep state, and we know who they are. i know exactly who they are. >> they want to take away my freedom because i will never let them take away your freedom. >> it's very simple. >> they want to silence me because i will never let them silence you. they want you silence. >> and i am the only one that can save this nation because you know they're not coming after me.

they're coming after you. and i just happened to be standing in their way. and i will never be moving. on november 5th, 2024, justice will be done. we will take back our country and we will make america great again. thank you, god you all. thank you. thank you very much. great job. thank you you. all right. that was the 45th president of the united states. we get reaction, the great one, mark levin, senator of marco rubio, joe tacopina, matt whitaker, alan dershowitz, gray jarrett, the best legal analysis in the world. >> but we begin tonight with my monologue. so today, president pled not guilty to all 37 felony charges at a federal courthouse in miami. make no mistake, the of justice, they're pretty much taking a wrecking ball to our great republic and our

constitution along with it. half of the country has now lost faith in the rule of law. this is now the third election presidential election cycle in a row where the fbi and the doj are throwing cinder blocks on the scale of that presidential race. first, in 2016, they gave hillary clinton a free pass. we know james comey told us she mishandled top secret material ,destroyed the evidence, she acid washed hard drive servers with bleach, pit destroying cell phones, blackberries with hammers. and, of course, the media mob. they didn't care. of course comey, he didn't care. now they're accusing us about what? about us? and their new favorite word. whataboutism? listen, the real issue on the political side is republicans going to be able to play the what about ism game and say, see joe biden it to any charges against donald trump are going to be purely

political. >> is this kind of political whataboutism from jim jordan playing actually going to resonate that he's trying to play right now. what about is very intense right now and you are somebody who definitely knows facts on this case. how cute. the left wing media found a new word. whataboutism? maybe another term that they can replace it with would be equal justice under the law and equal application of our laws and the lack thereof in america today. let's use comey and his own words. no reasonable prosecutor, whatever prosecutor charge hillary clinton, despite her serious misconduct. pay close attention. top secret, classified material she shouldn't have had. and that does not include the 33,000 deleted emails from . the group of 30,000 emails returned to the state department in 2014, 110 emails in 52 email chains have been

determined by the owning agency to contain classified information, and at the time they were sent or received, eight of those chains contained information that was top at the time they were sent. 36 of those chains contained secret information. the time and eight contained confidential information at the time. although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. >> okay, what about as i am at the very same time, in 2016, when clinton got a free pass, the fbi was propagating their own russia hoax the same month, as a matter of fact, that's the dirty conspiracy theory developed by the clinton campaign a bought, bought and paid for a dirty russian misinformation dossier to smear donald trump before the election. >> and the media mob, the democrats, the fbi, they all lie to you. the american people.

and that lie was perpetrated for over three years. no consequences at all whatsoever. not an apology not a correction from the corrupt media mob. and in 2020, it happened again. the fbi covered the very real hunter biden laptop scandal. remember, pre punked it even though they had it in december 2019 meeting with big tech in the lead up to the 2020 race weekly with big tech suggesting they may be victims of russian disinformation. in reality, they knew it wasn't russian disinformation. they had possession the laptop. they knew. rudy giuliani, the president's attorney, likely leak it. so hence the pre bunking. and according john solomon, he verified that its contents were in fact known by the fbi, that the complete, authentic authenticity they authenticated it at the fbi. at the very same time, former fbi officials continued to suggest that trump was colluding with russia. what we know now, the durham

report, a complete and total farce, an investigation that never should have begun. and now in 2023, is this more interference for our very own federal government? here's the doj with the fbi striking once again stacking 37 charges against donald trump, including violations of the espionage act for allegedly mishandling classified material while giving biden just like hillary, a free pass for also allegedly mishandling classified material. even worse, the fbi is trying its best to hide evidence of corruption against the current president. now, this is the big news that everyone needs to pay attention to now. first, the bureau seemingly denied the existence of that 1023 document that senator grassley and james colmer were requesting from the fbi and christopher wray, which recorded serious allegations of bribery against joe biden, made by what was a trusted and paid for fbi informant.

then director wray refused to comply with the house subpoena demanding, a copy of the 1023 document and still kromer chairman colmer was on the verge of holding wray in contempt. we just found out that the 1023 document ultimately to congress, it had redactions covering up very pertinent, important information. and here's iowa senator chuck grassley describing that information. >> 1020 three produced to the house committee's redacted reference that the foreign nationals who allegedly bribed joe and hunter biden allegedly has audio of his conversation with them. 17 such recordings, according to the 1023 the foreign national possesses 15 audio recordings of phone calls between them and hunter biden.

according to the 1023, the foreign national two audio recordings of phone calls between him and then vice president joe biden. these recordings were allegedly kept as a sort of insurance policy for the foreign nationals in case that he got a tiny spot. >> now former acting attorney general whitaker, who will join us in a moment, said these tapes could be cataclysm make a cataclysmic event for joe biden. but it almost seems the fbi doesn't want to be investigated. i wonder why. now, keep in mind, they have had this 1023 form for at least three years. so is senator grassley correct? did a burisma executive, does he have 17 recorded tapes, 15 of hunter, two of joe biden, then as vice president, that he kept as an insurance policy? is the fbi in possession of

these recordings or will they continue to shield, protect joe and hunter biden ahead of another election, all while prosecuting donald trump to the fullest extent of the law? now, today on capitol hill, the fbi deputy director didn't have a lot of answers. take a look. deputy director about is it true that the fbi has a report making those allegations? >> i'm not going to comment on that, senator. and why is that? i'm just not going to comment on the information we received. investigations. are you an obligation to the american people to be candid about evidence of corruption by the president, the united states. this is an area that i'm not going to get into with you, senator? >> well, i understand you don't want to. that's why people are mad at the fbi because you're stonewalling and covering up serious allegations of evidence of corruption gone from the president. >> multiple courts have uncovered extraordinary abuses perpetrated by your agency.

>> you are at the same time concealing information about serious allegations made against the president of the united states, even as your institution also targets his chief political opponent an unprecedented way. >> can they not see how bad this look? do they not see the double standard or do they just not care at this point believing they don't care right now? the only people seriously investigating joe biden are members of congress. that's commerce committee and jim jordan's committee. this week, chairman kilmer issued a new subpoena for. hunter's burisma business partner devin archer, pictured right here playing golf with the big guy himself, joe biden. >> keep in mind, hunter's cushy job on that board of burisma with devin archer is the focus of these very claims against the president in that 1023 forum. so don't be distracted by any insignificant forthcoming gun or tax charges that we hear might be imminent against hunter biden. that's only the low hanging fruit. the real issue is being

investigated. and both the house oversight committee in the house judiciary committee, this case really isn't about hunter. it's about joe. his father, the big guy, the one who hunter had to pay half his income to pops for and pay for home repairs from pops. according to investigations by grassley, johnson and colmer as well as bank records show corporations that they have identified texts on hunter's laptop. there is evidence that the president of the united states sold our country to foreign nationals. and you, the american people and all of us need to get answers and the fbi needs to stop covering for the president and keep stop putting cinderblocks on the scales of presidential elections. but the first lady of the united states, dr. jill biden, he said it's shocking. many republicans support donald trump after the, quote, indictment. well, given the conduct of her son and her husband, i think she might want to sit this one out. i'll also like to introduce

to dr. jill this document is called the u.s. constitution ,where americans are innocent until proven guilty. but i guess the rule of law doesn't mean much to the bidens anyway. here with reaction tonight, former acting attorney general matt whitaker is with us, along with the author of the trial of the century fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett, and author of get trump best seller harvard law professor alan dershowitz. matt, let me start with you. >> a cataclysmic event for joe biden. explain. well, this is a game changer because, you know, right now we've only seen the smoke. and, you know, there's a lot of folks that believe joe biden and his really his entire family has profited immensely from his public service. but this would be concrete evidence that would point to actual bribery, actual payments from foreign governments to affect u.s.. >> and that, to me, is an absolute game changer, sean. all right. let me ask you, professor dershowitz, you had said that

the republicans probably now have every right and even obligation to open an impeachment hearing about this. now, we know the fbi has not been cooperating with james commerce committee. we know now that he selectively redacted information that was pertinent and key, especially mentioning the possibility that there are 17 tapes held by a burisma executive ative 15 with hunter to joe biden as an insurance policy. should something go wrong? i don't think you'd hold on to tapes unless they were incriminating to you. of course not. but we have to apply the presumption of innocence, even in the context. >> sorry. all right. but. but i'd like to know why the fbi has not been. no, they should be cooperative. and if there is evidence of bribery. that is an impeachable offense

under the constitution. unlike what donald trump was impeached for, which were not impeachable offenses. but there has to be transparency. that's why i also want the trial of donald trump to be televised. i think hearing should have been televised. we have to know how i just system is operating. half the country doesn't trust our justice system. and the idea that we have probably the most important trial in modern american history, hidden from the public view. well, simply raise the question again. what do they have to hide? you talk about whataboutism? you know, in my book at trump, i have a whole chapter on about ism. it goes back and it's not you're right. it's not. whataboutism? it's equal protection of the law. the special prosecutor said there's one law and it applies to everybody. but he was tasked only to target and investigate one person. he or she will ask you, though

,was hillary clinton treated differently when we just played james comey 3110 emails. 52 email chains. eight of the change top secret. 36 secret eight confidential. but no reasonable prosecutor will prosecute. and may i add, that's only 30,000 emails. that does not include the 33,000, because he said in that very same speech, well, we didn't weren't able to see any intent. was there intent when hillary clinton used bleach bit to delete those emails? was there intent to obstruct when they destroyed devices? >> of course, every case is different on its facts. that's why the special prosecutor should have been appointed. >> john amash was very specific . question. comey said that there was no intent. >> no, i agree with you. that's why there should have been a comparative they shouldn't have been assigned just to investigate one person. they should have investigated hillary clinton should investigate it. president biden should investigate, should have

investigated sandy berger and then come to an assessment comparing the cases and comparing the facts then we'd be in a better position. but he had to get up and say, there's one law and it applies to everyone. well, he wouldn't know that. he only investigated one person. he didn't investigate a problem. he investigated a person. and that's not consistent with the american approach to equal justice under law. >> and greg jarrett, i mean, this is if you look at the timing of this, that was july 2016. comey made that, again, not really addressing the 33,000 deleted emails where i grew up. i think we would call that obstruction. but that was the same point that they were launching. what the durham report said never should have been launched, and that's operation crossfire hurricane. and as durham out, hillary was treated to one standard and donald trump another standard. but he said very clearly that that investigation that dragged

this country through three years never, ever should have been opened by the fbi. >> absolutely right. and in fact, as i pointed out in my book, five years ago, the very moment that james was clearing hillary clinton and he no authority to do that, his fbi was actually secretly simultaneously in london with christopher steele, who was handing over the first section of his phony dossier. >> and of course, we now know that the investigation had no credible the fbi knew at the outset that it was all phony and made up invented by hillary clinton. >> so you're seeing dual system of justice here, selective prosecution. it wasn't just clinton who wasn't prosecuted. >> you've got james comey himself who wasn't prosecuted. >> he stole fbi documents when

he was fired, one of which was classified that he leaked to his own attorneys who were not cleared for that information. was his home ever raided? was he ever indicted? that. of course he wasn't. same thing with bill clinton. >> he had all of those tapes as president trump outline in his speech tonight. >> was his home raided? no. the department justice defended bill clinton in front of a federal judge and said he has a right under the presidential records act to have those documents, including classified material. so trump's defense is going to be they'll file several motions challenging the indictment. they'll argue that the governing law is the presidential records act, which supplants a general statute such as the espionage act. all right. last, matt whitaker, we only have a second.

>> yeah, well, this case is obviously a long way from. you know, the end. but, you know, i would just point out what greg said. there are so important because the case law is very much on president trump's side. >> all right. i appreciate all three of you being with us, matt, thank you. great. thank you, alan dershowitz, thank you. here with more trump attorney tacopina. >> we're talking a lot about unequal justice under the law, lack of equal justice, equal application. if these cases are are not related in so they are related in so many different ways. nobody wants to talk about it, though, joe. nobody in the media wants to admit it. they don't even want to acknowledge that they lied to the american people with conspiracy theories for three years and got away with it. >> it's all like, oh, okay. >> we'll move on to the next thing. it's it's missing from what you just did there, that that little monologue and that that series of clips you put together was so powerful.

so powerful. opening statement as to why there at least should be parallel investigations. i mean, they're spending all this time of dollars, hundreds of prosecutors investigating, donald trump, anything. >> donald trump, you know, find a target and then go seek the crime. not the way it's supposed to be in this country. you have apparently real evidence of crimes by joe biden and his son, at least evidence that seems to be worth an investigation. and we get that here. >> and that's what's so sickening to the american people. look, it is unconscionable for a president to indict his leading political opponent. that's what the biden justice department just did. you know, joe biden kept classified documents. i mean, the honestly, i that they they uncovered those classified documents. >> joe biden's garage by his corvette, which looked like a pile of garbage in an open area. you know, i thought that was the day that there was no further to do on the classified documents case for president trump because how could they look so ridiculous to go and indict president trump for the same

thing that joe biden may have done? and this is and i agree, matter said the law is on president trump's side here. this is not a case. the espionage act does not rule supreme here and it's not going to apply at the end of the day. >> so. but you know what? the defense is not going to be said day to day. >> the defense won't be able to bring up, will they, how they treated hillary or how they treated joe, will they? i doubt it. well, we'll well, the defense will bring it up for sure in a motion to dismiss this based selective prosecution that i will guarantee you that will be brought on by, you know, the trump legal team for sure. we will file something that would show there was a selective prosecution being made here. that's not before jury. of course, when we get to a jury, the different question will be for four. todd and chris will be, can they convince the jury that the law is on president trump's side and it's going to be important how obviously the judge views that and what he instructs the jury is what the law is, but the law is on his side.

and what's been done here is weaponization of our justice system. >> and this is a really look, we had this conversation a few months ago when we were arraigned in front of a new york state court with alan brooks case, a case that is in shambles. you know, now here we are again and it's not going to stop yet. things seem to be happening on the left that you write gets a brush over, complete brush over by the media. and it's really sickening. it's a it's hypocritical, obviously. and it's just it really is a scary day for this country because president trump is angry and it's the pendulum now going to swing both ways. is this new norm where political opponents used their justice department, which is not really theirs, to go after political opponents. >> all right, joe tacopina, we appreciate your comments. thanks for being with us. here with more on all today's breaking news developments, i call him the great one, mark levin. great one. thank you for being with us. >> i know you got a lot to say tonight. if a prosecutor used the wrong law and i don't care how many former federal prosecutors and phony experts go on tv

because they have a law degree and they think they know something when they know nothing. most of them spent their lives as ambulance chasers. now, i know other people. i hate lawyers. i don't blame them except for my wife and me. of course. here's the bottom line. the espionage act has no applicability to this. tell me how many people have been prosecuted under the espionage act since 1917 who were president or vice president up until today? zero. lyndon johnson took information with him. he had one of his aides keep it. they put it in an envelope, johnson said. not till i die. give it to my library. and then the library got it. and they were sitting on it for 50 years. they were told to involving top secret about vietnam and tapping the phone of richard nixon. nobody remembers that. isn't that weird? and of course, you have the hillary clinton example. you know, hillary clinton was never investigated obstruction, shawn. it's not even that they didn't even investigator they didn't

investigated for perjury. and there was plenty of false statements that even investigated for that. and the evidence is beyond anything that we've ever seen with a former of state. she wasn't even a former president. the presidential records act doesn't even apply to her. and so the espionage act, i would argue, doesn't apply to any former president or any former vice president under the presidential act. why? it's called the presidential records act. people come on the tv and they say, well, he needs to have the law applied to him, as would anybody know. it's called the presidential records act because he is the executive branch. he's the executive branch. so he doesn't have to rely on some subordinate here. the regulation. >> and this is the way you do it, mr. president. his power comes from the constitution. he is a third branch of government. him he alone. everything else flows from him. the framers created a president. they didn't create a cia. they didn't create a special

counsel. they didn't create an attorney general. they created a president. and this precedent that people are talking about, people need to pay attention to this. this was an obama judge trying to help clinton in 2012. and the department of justice should know all about it, and so should the national archives. it was the case involving socks, the sock drawer and judicial watch. know what happened. bill clinton keeps these tapes which have highly classified information on them in a sock drawer, which is a little different than sandy berger, who kept them in his pants. but nonetheless, he kept them in his sock drawer. then he retires. he's a former president. so judicial watch brings a lawsuit and says hey, national archives, go get those. we want to see some of those so it gets in front of this clinton judge jackson in washington. and what does she say? she reads the law, the presidential records act, not the espionage act. or clinton would be doing 50 years with his wife by now. now he she reads

the presidential records act. and you know what? she concludes, i'll tell you what she concludes. she says, the responding agency, the national archives, the tapes were mr. clinton's personal records, therefore not subject to the presidential records act or the freedom of information act. the government's position was that congress had decided the president and the president alone decides what is presidential record and what is. and this is why they want to keep talking about the espionage act and not the presidential records act. we had a legal analyst come on this network a few hours back and he says presidential records act doesn't apply. it's the federal records act because these documents weren't created by the oval office. >> i said, how much dumber is this going to get before this is over? it's what's in the possession. the president, not whether he created it or not, not whether the vice president created it, not whether the the staff created it.

president gets cia information. the president gets disinformation. he gets all kinds of information. it comes the oval office, some of which he might create most of, which he doesn't. one other thing i have a question for bill barr in particular, who's been very poisonous. bill barr, why wouldn't the prosecutors seek civil remedy if he wants to seek any remedy at all? why wouldn't he go to the court and say, i need an order, your honor? order them to turn all this stuff over under the espionage act? well, if the judge is smart, the judge will say, get the out of my courtroom. what's this have to do? the espionage act. but maybe they're not so smart. maybe they're dumb as the guy that signed the warrant. and so what happens? you need three elements. you need an order. and what are the elements in and for contempt that judge can say, okay i ordered you to turn them over and you did okay. they go back. the government said, hold them in contempt, civil contempt, invalid order exist clearly defining an obligation the accused party has ability

to comply with the order. the accused party has willfully refused to comply with the order. then they're held in civil contempt. judge can decide if one of the lawyers goes to jefferson. you don't say, know what? we're going to move this, as barr did stupidly. actually, we're going to move this from the presidential records act to the espionage. well, how did they do that? they decided to criminalize the case. this entire prosecution comes from the criminalization of the case, the wrong statute. the wrong statute. so you know what they're doing now, strong in america they're beating up on the potential judge. she better be careful. oh, she's a trump appointee. so they know what they're doing . these people are fascistic and marxist. that's what they are they use the wrong law. donald trump did not commit any crimes. he didn't obstruct justice. he didn't commit perjury. he didn't make false statements. it is the prosecutor. it is the attorney general who did this.

and one other question for merrick garland. what the is it going to take you? power to appoint a special counsel against biden? allegations of bribery, 17 potential tapes. and yet, you know what, john? the attorney general, all this, the fbi didn't turn their stuff over without briefing the attorney general. they have a very big table. i think it's on the fifth floor. and he sits and they tell him what he's going to do. same with this prosecutor. the attorney general is the svengali behind it all. and the deputy attorney general is the svengali behind the attorney general. it's the wrong law. no president's ever been charged with violating the espionage logic. not lyndon johnson. hillary clinton was in charge. she wasn't even investigated for obstruction of justice. and one last thing i do have to give joe biden some credit. 1917, woodrow wilson was president. he got law passed and he imprisoned 2000 people, including eugene debs, who was the socialist running for president, and he ran for president from prison and got 60% of the vote.

wilson was a segregationist and a racist. joe biden was a segregation and racist. so there you have it. a former segregationist and racist and a past segregationist and racist using the espionage act to try and destroy our country. and by the way, you legal analysts are coming on tv, try to educate yourselves, try to look a little bit at history. obviously read the constitution, read the case law, be a little bit informed before you go on tv and make an out of yourself. >> i'm done. a great one. mark levin, life, liberty, little event, sunday nights, 8:00 here on fox. when we come back, senator marco rubio reacts to the two tiered system of justice in the country as we justice in the country as we continue our coverage. >> many holocaust survivors are impoverished and suffering today in their final years at. n

kids and alert you to signs of potential problems. >> like >> how the media mob they had another meltdown today, all because donald ttrump stopped at a cafe in

miami after his arraignment where he was warmly greete afted by many supporters, fake jake tapper. you couldn't take itporters. ove with righteous indignation because he's so smart, het th only got the russia hoax wrong for three long years. take a look as we watch donald . trump attempt to turn his arrest and indictment into some sort of campaign commercial. >> the folks in the control room, i don't need to see anthey more of that. this he's trying to turn this and he's trying to turn it into a spectacl.e, a campaign ad. >> that's enough of that. we've seen it already. his >> yeah. he's earned his name fake jake. anyway, here with reaction, author of the brand new books ne out today, decades of decadence how our spoiled elites blew america's inheritance of life, liberty, security and prosperityerty sec. >> florida senator marco rubio, as well as senator. great book, by the way. thanosperity bio isk you.. >> and i urge people to get it. your reaction to the events of today. and i really want your reaction as to the fbi being uncooperative as it relates to not only the documentcooperat

senator grassley and james colmer wanted, but now grass the new information that there are 17 tapes that an executive from burisma ha ad. >> yeah. so first of all, about this whole thing of two thatisn' happened today, it's actually directly related to what i write about in the book. abwhat iout in write about in th is that this country, the people in charge of this country, decided that we nowd lived in an era. this is at the end of the cold war where it didn't matter erat we sent our jobs to another country. it didn't matter. we got rid of all of our factoriey. whatt ris that we can now make decisions on what was in the best interest of the global economhest oy, not the best int of america, that it was okay to unleash this culturalof a was this hysteria that now has infected every part of our lives. none of this mattered anymore. and now we're seeing the results off it. lts of i and so what we should be focused on now is the fact that not only haused os that haa concurrently, while those decisions helped build up chins. . so china is building spy bases. chiny baserr thell ove the world, undermining america, building up their military. and that's what we need be focusedind on. and instead we have to focus on. i agree with jake tapper, a spectaclon.e, but the spectace

wasn't trump going overseas in little havana to getspectacl toe spectacle is this prosecution. this prosecution wase in a choi. there is something called prosecutorial discretion. thwas sol government uses ittime all the time. it's what they use not to deport people . it's w it's what they use to release a bunch of rioters and thugsrtsf that burn down parts of the city here in washington, dc. and they city in had a choice to make.ke and they should have looked at this and said, there is no thas been e, there's no harm that's been caused, even if everything they allege is true, which we don't kno tw if it is, but even if everything they allege is true, there's no harm to thf ite country. but there are certain harm now from this. cethis one deeply divide ine dii our really polarized and volatile country, doingage o tremendous damage to america at a time when we should be focused on the threatat a tit china and the threat we face to our greatness. we are subjected to this usness because it was a choice, a political choice by a prosecutorecause i or that's whs they chose to do this. >> tthey made other choices with. >> joe biden and other choices with hillary clinton. they never made itmade othe ne,

sense to me, senator, that a vice president would leverage a billion taxpayer dollars to demand that a prosecutoulr, be fired in 6 hours in ukrainein until we find out that ukr hisdf son was on the board of the company. they were investigating. they were investigatiny they ags son. they were investigating him. and now we learn that the fbhim in fact, has information fromas a credible source that they paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to. huousands it from from congressional committees. and your colleagues, senator grassley, what does that tell you, senator? well, it tells d you that the choices are all one sided here. okay? they have a credible form and apparentlyl one-sided. came forwardame fo with this investigation and they chose not to pursue irw t . they had someone else they called a credible source. it claimed that they had a dossie. y har that turned out to beey co fake and they chose to submit thisse t country to three yearsf an investigation that turned out to be fake. hi to prosecute hillary clinton. they chose to only charge sandy berger. after he stuffed classified material in a sock and stolclase it, not to chargem

with anything more than a misdemeanor. the on issue after issue, they choose not to move on these things because it would. but whennot to these thing it cg that's republican and particularly trump. they always choose to go for the former. they're in essence asking for a life sentence. and the damage thi. ares is doig to our country is tremendous. i imagine they're watching the stuff in beijingoing tr and they're giddy about it. i mean, to them, this appears like america is destroying giddg itself. we're just going to keep doing what we're doing to take over the world because they're doin g it to themselves and all because this is political. this is designed a to they'vece made the choice that no matter what damage this causes our country, i mattet to be done because we need to get this thing in place. o geis thingbut for the 20 2024, it's a sad day for the country. it's a damaging day. and all these giddy people on tv, all these media hypocritesd a daall the tv , tg to rue the day that this happened because it's going to be bad for our countr y. they could be presiding over the destruction of the greatest nation in the history of the worl bd. ion of and the people that are making t these choices are responsible for it. senator rubio'test cou s is in bookstores across the country. amazon.com, thank you, senator.m
