The following program is made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you.
To find out how you can help, visit nothing but the truth, so help us God.
I'm Rick Wiles.
It has been nearly two years since Hunter Biden's laptop was revealed to the American public
weeks prior to the November 2020 election between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden.
TV news networks, big city newspapers, and far-left news websites joined with social media technology companies
to suppress news of the laptop's explosive contents that revealed possible criminal activities involving
Chinese spies, drugs, pornography, and sex with underage girls. On the surface,
it appears that little has been done by the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI to conduct a legitimate and thorough investigation of Hunter
Biden and his business activities. Today, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told Fox News that the
FBI has purposely undermined the Biden investigation. He said the inaction is more evidence of bias inside the FBI
in favor of leftist politicians. Here is a short video clip from Fox and Friends interview with Tom
Fitton. What we need is a criminal investigation of the criminal investigation of Hunter Biden. An investigation, by the way, which necessarily implicates and involves his father.
You know, this goes back to October 2020.
The FBI again is burying information, it looks like, about Hunter Biden
using the same type of language that Democrats and outside supporters
of Joe Biden were using to try to dismiss the allegations. And also, according to the
whistleblowers, it looks like working with or allied with Democrats in Congress who were trying
to blow up Senator Grassley's and Senator Johnson's investigation of Hunter Biden investigation, for instance, which highlighted that Hunter had gotten millions of dollars from the widow of a Russian oligarch.
So I don't understand why it is still three years after they got the laptop in December of 2019.
Reportedly, they're still agonizing over whether to prosecute Hunter Biden.
And I think it's because of the necessary necessarily that it implicates the president.
You know, and the rules are, according to what we were told during the Mueller investigation,
that if there's a conflict of interest by the Justice Department, there has to be a special
counsel appointed. And one obviously hasn't been appointed. And that's a scandal, too. So, you know, the FBI and the DOJ
are showing why they can't be trusted to handle this investigation once again.
Doc, if the Biden, Hunter Biden laptop, and actually there were three of them, hard drives, if he had not dropped them off at the repair shop in Dover, Delaware, and forgot about them, and had the owner of the repair shop not given them to the news media, he made copies, he gave them to news media outlets. He gave them to some
politicians and he gave it to the FBI. But had that not happened, we wouldn't know much of anything
about Hunter Biden. So we would be at this stage in the Biden regime. There would be allegations,
there would be rumors, but there wouldn't be hard evidence.
Biden himself, Hunter Biden,
is his own worst witness against himself.
If you think prior to the laptop story breaking,
coming out and everything,
the only thing we knew really about Hunter Biden
is that he served on some boards of energy companies in
Ukraine, had some connections in China, but we didn't have the details of connections and
everything like the laptop revealed. Right. So without the laptop at this stage in 2022,
any criticism would be pretty light.
Yes.
Because you couldn't make a hard connection.
People would just say, well, yeah, he was involved in some companies, but he's resigned and that's the past and everything.
But we have hard evidence, his own evidence.
Right.
And with all this evidence that he has revealed himself,
he still has not been arrested. We don't even know if there's a legitimate investigation. The FBI and
the Justice Department won't even confirm that there's an investigation. And remember when
initially the laptop story broke, it was Russian fake news, right? That's right. I don't know.
There's nothing to this at all.
It's just the Russians doing all that.
And anybody like True News or any other conservative news outlet that said this is a legitimate story,
we were branded as fake news, spreading disinformation, spreading Russian propaganda.
And so a lot of good citizens who tried to get to the bottom of the story,
their reputations were tarnished by the news media, the same news media who knew,
they knew it was a real laptop. They knew it was Hunter Biden's laptop and they lied.
They purposely lied. So here we are now, and a lot of information has come out.
There are so many documents and emails on the laptop that I don't know how many
people are and investigators, private investigators, working for political
people. We have no idea how long it's going to take
to go through all those documents,
the thousands, tens of thousands of emails,
documents, photographs, pornography.
Clearly, I mean, it appeared that he was involved
with underage girls.
They were just, the guy was making,
he was making his own porn videos and posting them on porn sites himself.
I mean, the guy was just totally out of control.
So there is no information that there is even an FBI investigation.
Right. And of course, one of the biggest accusations from the very beginning by
those of us who've been looking at this is the connection between Hunter Biden and whoever the
big guy is. Somewhere in there, Joe Biden is connected. And the campaign denied that they
had any knowledge at all of any of Hunter's business dealings. I don't mess with Hunter's business dealings.
I don't know anything about him.
And yet Hunter Biden said in his own emails
he had to give his father 10%,
no, 50% of his personal earnings
and 10% of business deals were set aside
for the big guy, whoever the big guy is.
And now with the laptop, we now know that there were meetings that the vice president had that can be confirmed.
You know, we have a record on the laptop.
Then you have the record of the meetings, you know, in the vice president's register that these were business meetings or at least business connections of Hunter Bidens.
So Joe Biden can't sit there and say, well, I didn't know they were business connections of Hunter Bidens. So Joe Biden can't sit there and
say, well, I didn't know they were business associates of Hunter's. I thought I was just
having lunch. And so Daily Mail has this story. Vice President Joe Biden met with at least two
Chinese energy execs in the West Wing, the 15th meeting with businessmen tied to his son's company.
And this story in the Daily Mail goes,
two Chinese businessmen with ties to Hunter Biden's company met with Joe Biden at the White House and followed up with the VP's son days later with a fawning email and invitation.
The meeting is the 15th to be uncovered between Joe and businessmen linked to Hunter.
Executives for Chinese energy company Wang Chang
secured a meeting with the vice president in the West Wing in July 2014
with just one day's notice, according to White House logs.
A client of Hunter's company, Seneca Global Advisors,
partnered with Wang Chang in 2012 on a $1.25 billion natural gas plant in China. The ceremony for the signing of the deal
between Hunter's client Great Point Energy and the energy company was attended by then-Chinese
Vice President Xi Jinping. Wang Chang is a major Chinese company and also partnered with
the North Korean state for a giant copper mine as well. Now, the Daily Mail article also goes on
to outline just a few, at least 14 of the other meetings that Joe Biden had that were business
associates of Hunter's. Entertaining Hunter's Mexican billionaire business partners, Carlos Slim,
Miguel Alamon Velasco, and Miguel Alamon Magnani at the vice president's official residence in 2014,
meeting with Hunter's tech startup business partner and big Democrat donor Jeff Cooper at the White House,
joining a dinner at a Washington, D.C. restaurant with Hunter's associates,
former Kazakhstan Prime Minister Karim Masomov and Kazakh oligarch Knez Rakishev and Vadim Pozarskiy,
an executive at allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas company Burisma.
Okay, so these are meetings where Joe Biden attended the meetings with his son Hunter Biden.
With direct business associates of Hunter Biden.
For the vice president to sit there and say,
I don't know anything about Hunter's business dealings. So they're up now where they have 15 confirmed meetings. Right.
Where just a few weeks ago, Joe Biden was denying that he even had one meeting. Yes. And now because
again, it's the contents on Hunter Biden's laptop. Yes. That he carelessly, foolishly left behind because he was so jacked up on drugs.
He forgot that he dropped off a laptop and he was so jacked up on drugs. He forgot that his
laptop was loaded with sensitive documents, criminal activity, pornography, and all kinds
of stuff that you wouldn't want the public to see the guy was so
messed up he took a laptop over and gave it to someone to repair apparently not even thinking
the guy might look at what's on the laptop so we have there's another set of meetings that joe
biden attended a number of them. Meeting Hunter's Chinese business partner,
Jonathan Lee, on a trip to China in 2013. We've talked about Jonathan Lee here on this program.
Meeting Tony Bobulinski,
a partner in Hunter's controversial deal
with a Chinese oil giant in LA in 2017,
according to Bobulinski's text.
Meeting Hunter's best friend, business partner,
now convicted fraudster, Devin Archer,
at the White House just days before Archer and Hunter were appointed to the Burisma board in 2014.
Dozens of meetings with Hunter's consultancy partner, Eric Schwerin,
who also handled Joe's taxes and visited the White House 27 times during Joe's tenure as vice president.
There were White House meetings with Frances Pearson, a former Biden aide,
who later pitched Hunter on business in China.
Manuel Estrella, who partnered with Hunter on Latin American startups, met Joe in June 2014.
And Hunter's former Rosemont Seneca partner and stepson of former Senator John Kerry, Chris Hines,
met Joe in the West Wing in April of 2011. So, Doc, of those 15 confirmed meetings
where Joe Biden attended business meetings with Hunter Biden, of those 15, 14 of them
occurred while Joe Biden was the vice president. This isn't after he left the vice presidency.
It's during the vice presidency.
And all these names that we listed
are direct partners or business associates of Hunter Biden.
And so there's no wiggling around on this.
They've got this information.
But who will desire to pursue this, Rick?
Who will desire to find out more information about this?
Maybe Adam Schiff.
I doubt that.
Maybe Liz Cheney.
No, let's try another one.
No one wants to know what's on Hunter Biden's laptop.
No calls for a special prosecutor.
No.
No demands for a special prosecutor. No. No demands for hearings.
Why hasn't the House or the Senate sent a subpoena to Hunter Biden to come in and explain these things?
Yeah, they have no problem sending a subpoena to somebody on the right at any given time.
But there's nothing but crickets when it comes to Hunter Biden.
Now, one of the other stories that brings it up to today because of the conflict in Ukraine, but back in 2018, Hunter Biden was involved in a deal
to send grain from Ukraine to China. And there's your old buddy there, Rick. You know who that is,
right? No, it's Kofor Black. That's Kofor Black. And so Hunter Biden was involved in a 2018 project by Burisma Holdings to export
grain from Ukraine to China, a document from his abandoned laptop shows. The scandal-scarred
First Son's signature was among those on a Burisma board resolution dated July 27, 2018,
that concerned the Sino-Ukraine Silk Road Grain Port project. So in addition to Hunter,
seven other members of Burisma's board of directors
authorized their advisor, Vadim Porzarski,
to represent with all Chinese potential shareholders
for development, negotiation, and contracting issues,
as well as operation management of the project
Sino-Ukraine Silk Road Grain Port.
Now, former CIA officer Joseph Kofor Black, a fellow Burisma board member, was also among
those who signed off on the project, the document shows.
I haven't heard his name, Kofor Black, for a long, long time, he had a very prominent role during September
11, 2001.
His name was in the news a lot.
He was at that time, if I recall, I think he was the chief of the CIA's counterterrorism
unit.
Counterterrorism, CTC, yes. And there was a lot of controversy
involving Kofor Black
that he was accused of withholding
the names of several of the hijackers
that he withheld from the FBI
prior to 9-11,
that he knew about these people.
On the other hand uh...
that there was a
he and george tenet george tenet was the cia director of the time under uh...
bill clinton
and and still serving under george w bush at that time yes
and so george tenet and kofor black
they were on record prior to 9-11 saying,
Al-Qaeda's coming, coming to the United States. Something big, something spectacular is going to
happen. We're going to be hit. So they used those public statements as evidence that they warned the new Bush administration.
Right. Of course, the other viewpoint is they knew a lot more than they wanted to say.
That all remains to be proven. But all I'm saying is Kofor Black has a long history
working with the CIA. Have you heard this story about Kofor Black and Tenet getting into it on the day of 9-11?
Tenet had ordered the evacuation of Langley.
Yes, and Kofor Black refused to leave Langley.
Yeah, and his teams and the CTC teams.
And that was another addition, depending on your perspective on it,
that Kofor Black was well assured that nothing was going to happen at Langley.
But the other side would say, no, he bravely stayed at his post.
At risk of his life.
Right.
But some interesting story.
So Kofor Black is definitely deep state connected, that's for sure.
So he's a business partner with Hunter Biden in a Ukrainian wheat deal that went to China.
Yes. And this was at the time that Xi Jinping had announced that there were going to be food shortages and that China needed to stockpile food. And so Hunter Biden sprung into action with Kofor Black and facilitated this massive deal.
An energy company supplying green.
Yes. Anything the Chinese needed to buy, Hunter Biden was there. So we assume that Papa Biden got his share. But we'll have to wait and see
what the FBI finds, right? Yes.
Next story. This is Senator Kennedy of Louisiana was grilling FBI Director Wray about bias from the FBI against or in favor of Hunter Biden.
Right.
And we got a soundbite here of Senator Kennedy.
From Louisiana, yes, going after the FBI director and accusing him, accusing the FBI of showing bias in favor of Joe Biden's son.
Let's watch it. Isn't it true that Mr. Tebow, Agent Tebow, excuse me, and FBI supervisory intelligence analyst Brian Ohtan covered up derogatory information
about Mr. Hunter Biden while working for the FBI?
Well, again, I want to be very careful not to interfere with ongoing personnel matters.
I should say that when I read the letter that describes the kinds of things that you're talking about, I found it deeply troubling.
It is troubling.
And it is totally—
And it's not about their political beliefs.
It's not about their political beliefs. It's not about their political beliefs.
It's about that this is a senior employee at the FBI with years of experience
going on social media and tweeting
this kind of stuff. So the whole interchange was about
employees of the FBI, agents of the FBI, seeming
to stonewall, slow things down,
slow the investigation down.
Even some of the agents going as far as
posting out on social media
their own personal political biases out there.
Like Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.
Right.
So Senator Kennedy was questioning Director Wray.
Director Wray's general response the whole three hours he was there was basically,
sorry, there's an active investigation going on.
I can't talk about that.
I mean, you could just put it on a tape and just play it every time if you wanted to.
That was generally the response.
And so he said, Mr. Ray said,
he was deeply troubled.
He was deeply troubled that there's
the appearance of
favoritism
and bias at the FBI.
So that's about as far as
he went as
making any kind of criticism
about the
agency that he runs. I want to jump down to
number 16. This is Senator Josh Hawley saying that the FBI colluded with big tech,
with the social media companies to suppress news of the Hunter Biden story.
Senator Hawley was on Fox News.
Let's watch.
Senator Josh Hawley is a member of the Judiciary Committee,
and he was at the hearing, and he joins us now.
So is Reagan a cop to anything, Senator?
He's just going to give you the same song and dance every single time.
Every single time, it's to come up and say,
I don't know what you're talking about.
I can't answer any of these questions.
I'm not sure.
I'll have to get back to you, Senator.
And listen, this is just an avoidance of accountability.
The truth is that these whistleblowers have now said over and over that the FBI colluded with the big tech companies, by the way, to try and bury the Hunter Biden story, to try to protect Joe
Biden, to try to interfere, frankly, in the reporting about the 2020 election. And it looks
like they got by with it. And it looks like nobody's been disciplined and nothing's been
done about it. And I tell you what, that is a big, big problem. I don't think you're ever going to
do anything about it, because here's why. We have a list of all these people that the FBI spied on
over the years. Nothing's changed. Muhammad Ali,
John Lennon, Hugh Hefner, Martin Luther King Jr., Michael Jackson, Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Robertson,
Albert Einstein, George Steinbrenner, Tupac, Walt Disney, Helen Keller, Donald Trump. I mean,
they've been doing this for decades, Senator. Nothing's ever going to change. How do you change this?
Well, you've got to start holding these people accountable and you've got to start firing people.
I mean, that's at the end of the day what needs to happen here. And it should start with Ray. I
mean, you mentioned Donald Trump. Let's remember that in 2016, the FBI lied to a secret court,
falsified evidence in order to get a wiretap on the Trump campaign.
They lied about it. It was so bad. The court said that they didn't have any confidence in what DOJ
and the FBI were telling them in other cases. And yet all of those people are still employed
at the FBI and at DOJ. All of them should be gone. The director should be gone. Merrick Garland
should be gone for what he's done since he's been in office.
That's how you get some accountability. Yeah, the guy that forged that warrant got the Paul Pelosi treatment.
Lied to a secret court and still keep your government job and not face any prosecution.
Doc, I like Josh Hawley. He seems to be an outstanding young senator
from your home state of Missouri.
How do you feel about him since you're a Missourian?
I'm very proud of Josh Hawley.
The fact that he voted against Sweden and Finland
going into NATO, I saw that the other day.
You were mentioning here a little while ago,
they were calling him traitor for voting that way.
So he's definitely up against the deep state and the black deep state.
He's hated. He's hated by the far left.
Yes.
And he's hated by the neocons on the right.
It's going to be interesting to see how he survives in D.C. over the long term.
Hey, Doc, one final thing on that hearing with FBI Director Gray.
He wanted to cut it short.
I think he was there three hours.
I give him the credit of that part.
But the senators were not done talking to him.
Not even the Democratic senators.
They weren't even done.
And so the FBI director said, hey, guys, he's talking to U.S. senators.
Hey, guys, I have to go.
I have a plane to catch.
Right.
And Senator Grassley attempted to persuade him not to go, not to leave the hearing, to continue to answer questions and reminded the FBI director, you're not flying on a commercial
airliner. You're flying on a government plane and you're the FBI
director. They're flying you. You're the only
passenger here. You can call them and tell them to keep the plane
on the tarmac. You'll be there later.
It was the FBI director's way to get out.
Right.
It was an interesting interchange to watch between Senator Grassley and Director Wray.
We've got a clip of that.
Watch this.
We just heard a half hour ago about your having to leave at 1.30.
When he announced this meeting, he said we're
going to have seven-minute first rounds, three-minute second rounds. I've got seven people on my
side of the aisle want their additional three minutes. Is there any reason we couldn't accommodate
them for 21 minutes or whatever Democrats want second rounds to.
Senator, I had a flight that I'm supposed
to be hightailing it to out of here
and I had understood that we were going to be
done at 1.30 so that was
that's how we ended up where we are.
If it's your
business trip, you got your own plane.
Can it wait a while?
Sorry, to be honest
I've tried to make my break as fast as I could to get right back out here. You took more than five minutes
This is a tight ship mr. Director
Listen, I I don't recall mentioning in the second round
I want to accommodate as many as I can and still be respectful of the fact that this is the third appearance in two years before this committee.
And I appreciate that very much.
But you had a five minute break.
Three appearances in two years.
That's supposed to be commendable.
And each time they question him about the performance of the FBI.
BILL MOYERS, And so I'll get back to you on this.
BILL MOYERS, Right.
BILL MOYERS, I'll look into it.
I'm deeply troubled.
I'll look into it.
Hey, I came across something today in the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong, Ukrainian professional comedian and acting president Zelensky made
a comment in a video that he is seeking direct talks with Xi Jinping in China and he wants China to help rebuild Ukraine when
the war is over yeah so in the there was an exclusive interview that Zelensky had
and he said he hoped China and other countries unite to support Ukraine's
reconstruction and so now mr. Zelensky is bringing China in
on the conflict with Russia and Ukraine
and trying to garner their support.
Or at least not their support so much
as their inclusion in talks.
Why would Zelensky open the door in Ukraine to China
to come in and rebuild the country?
I mean, obviously he knows what's going to happen.
Well, let's say there was already plans in place for China to be involved in the reconstruction of Ukraine.
So, I mean, Hunter Biden definitely wanted China involved in Ukraine, didn't he?
I mean, to go down that road.
Right.
The Bidens deeply involved in Ukraine. Yeah, the biden's deeply involved in ukraine yeah
the biden's deeply involved with china yes so now we have a war that russia did not want
russia did not want this war but was forced into it and now with the destruction that's in ukraine
zielinski is saying my preference is for communist China
to come to Ukraine and rebuild Ukraine. Do you think maybe the Bidens have a role in this?
Well, they had a role in the past, and it's certainly possible that they have a role in
it presently. Well, I'm certain the FBI is looking into this matter right now.
Probably deeply troubling to them, isn't it?
Yes.
The Sun newspaper in London had two stories today about war with China.
The first one, China convinced it needs to hit U.S. with a Pearl Harbor-style surprise attack
to win the war over Taiwan, according to a war expert.
So China is convinced that it now needs to hit America hard and early
in a surprise Pearl Harbor-style attack to invade Taiwan, a leading expert has warned.
Oriana Schuyler-Mastro, a fellow at Stanford University and a former China analyst at the Pentagon,
told The Sun Online how Beijing
increasingly views an invasion of the island as inseparable from a war with the U.S.
Mastro told The Sun Online these types of blockade war games are set to become
more commonplace as the threat of war increasingly looms. She explained that Beijing now believes it
also has to fight the U.S.
if it is to fulfill its long-cherished goal of invading Taiwan and reuniting with the mainland.
Mastro believes that the most likely way such a conflict would play out is with a Pearl Harbor-style attack on U.S. forces in the region.
It would be designed to try and knock out U.S. forces so they could not react to stop China
from gaining a foothold in Taiwan, which it regards as its territory. It's about hitting
hard and early so we can't get boots on the island before the United States can launch a response,
Maestro said. Maestro told the Sun Online that they told her they will use the current crisis to ramp up the pressure on Taiwan and make life difficult for America.
I met with some Chinese government officials this morning and they communicated to me that the status quo has been broken, she said.
Now they have an opportunity to build a new status quo and that's going to be one more beneficial for them in which they're present and operating
because this exacerbates the U.S. problem of early warning.
There will be large-scale mobilizations and exercises that are basically combat rehearsals.
And if it becomes routine for China to be engaging in mass mobilizations,
then it's harder for the United States to know if it's a blockade of Taiwan or just an exercise.
And so you're going to start seeing more and more activity of China,
not just in the Taiwan Strait, but all around Taiwan.
And that's to prepare for a day that they will invade.
It's a very interesting concept, what was said there in the article about a new status quo.
So the status quo, the norm in relations with Taiwan and China has been that the Western countries do not recognize Taiwan independence.
Right.
Everything remains the same.
They recognize two systems, one country.
This is the norm.
This is the status quo.
That's the status quo.
It's been for several decades.
And even this week, Nancy Pelosi was saying,
we wish to maintain the status quo of the situation.
But she knows, and everybody else knows now,
that has totally changed.
Okay, that's where I'm going with this, Doc.
So yesterday, you know, I said,
just from a strictly neutral political analysis,
I'm not a fan of Nancy Pelosi,
but I said on the surface, Nancy Pelosi's trip appears
to be a huge success for her, that she actually looks presidential compared, okay, compared
to Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
They look weak.
Nancy Pelosi looks strong.
She actually looked like she was the president of the United States
coming down the stairs of the plane, meeting of people.
But did Nancy Pelosi, is she working,
is she and the Bidens working with Xi Jinping
to implement a new status quo.
Was that the purpose of her trip?
Well, whether it was or not,
there is a new status quo now.
I know that.
So?
I know that.
So the aftermath is there's a new status quo.
Xi did not help Taiwan.
Xi actually hurt Taiwan.
Because now the Chinese are going to do regular blockades.
Yes.
Practice runs.
Practice runs of blockades.
And they're going to claim the entire Taiwan Strait and not honor the median line or anything.
They said it disappeared.
Right.
All right.
So the reality is Taiwan's in worse shape now
than it was before Nancy Pelosi showed up.
Even though she comes out looking like the queen bee
that landed on Taiwan and ruled.
China actually has a stronger position now.
The Chinese military will be constantly practicing for invasion.
So you have to ask, did Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden and Hunter Biden work secretly with Xi Jinping to change the status quo?
That's a real possibility.
They moved it incrementally. It wasn't a big
blow-up like we thought could happen, but they moved the pieces on the game board
just enough that now China is much more aggressive towards Taiwan. And Chinese aggression towards Taiwan is the new norm.
And the Taiwanese people are going to have to live every day
with the reality that Chinese military exercises are taking place.
Jets flying over the island.
Warships surrounding the island.
Missiles going off.
This is the new norm.
That's what I believe they're telling us.
And now you'll see the West and NATO vessels, U.S. vessels,
pushing the limits on freedom of navigation,
not just in the South China Sea like they have been doing,
but around Taiwan, and there's going to be that tit-for-tat going on
between Chinese forces and U.S. forces.
And so is the U.S. Navy going to send warships
through the Taiwan Strait?
And what happens if they do?
If China has said the median line...
There's a blockade? There's a blockade?
Are we going to attempt to run a blockade?
Even if it's a practice blockade, will the US Navy attempt to run it?
And surely you're moving towards a confrontation.
In fact, I didn't bring the article out here today, but in one of their senior national security experts,
and he said that this week the situation has changed
in that Australia is now facing a high probability
of a major military conflict in the region.
So Australia now is saying this is coming.
We knew it was coming years from now,
but it's now been moved to the front burner.
So again, you have to ask,
was the Queen Bee's real purpose to move everything?
To push things down the timeline, in other words.
No, to bring it forward.
I mean, I'm very important.
She brought it forward to put China in the driver's seat.
That's a possibility.
If she didn't work with China, then in the long run,
her stunt, her little publicity stunt, actually hurt Taiwan.
But only time will tell.
So the second story from the Sun in the U.K. is China steps up military drills near Taiwan
as Beijing prepares for mass casualties in a chilling invasion.
Yes, China has issued a chilling warning to Taiwan
by releasing footage of field hospital rehearsals,
suggesting it is preparing for mass casualties.
It comes as Beijing ramps up military drills near the island
as fears of an imminent invasion swell.
As China steps up its war game,
harrowing footage of combat medical exercises has been released on Weibo,
showing rehearsals of teams dealing with vast numbers of casualties.
It shows medics loading would-be injured soldiers onto a sanitary train
to practice treatment and the evacuation of the wounded.
The train, which can carry more than 100 people, is equipped with an intensive care unit,
an operating room, a reception, and a treatment room.
We actually have a little bit of that video
to share here with you.
So this is what people across the Asia Pacific
are watching on their phones and laptops and everything.
But it's PLA war propaganda
telling the people of the world
China is going to invade Taiwan.
And people are going to get hurt in the process.
Yes.
So let's watch this.来到这边走这些什么情况 这是好 前面 到这边来 So basically a hospital train.
Yeah.
Reminding the people China's going to deliver
and there's going to be people that will get hurt as a result.
Doc, I've never seen propaganda like this coming out of China. I think we're definitely very, very close to a military confrontation with China, and
very close, I'm saying anywhere from 2022 to 2024, because they're going to have to
do it while Joe Biden's in the White House or Kamala Harris,
while they have their team.
It's their team.
The Bidens are their team.
The Bidens are China's team.
The 2020 election was compromised.
Donald Trump was removed.
He was tough on Communist China.
And Communist China worked with their affiliate, the Democratic Party, and the tech companies.
And the election was compromised.
There is no doubt in my mind that a coup took place in the 2020 election.
It was a coup.
The sitting president of the United States was destabilized and removed.
There was a massive coordinated effort
between the Communist Party of China,
the Democratic Party of America,
the news media and the tech companies
and certain components of the deep state in
this country, certain elements of the FBI and the intelligence agencies, current employees
and past employees, they worked together to remove Donald Trump.
And it was a soft coup, but it was a coup.
Hey, final thing before we wrap it up.
We mentioned our Jordan tour of the Holy Land,
and it is coming up November 9 through November 17.
And you can finally register and reserve your place.
Now, when I say register, it means by your seat, okay?
So if you go to True News.
You go right to True News, right on the front page.
There for everybody to see is the banner ad.
You'll see an invitation.
Come join Rick and Doc on a trip to Jordan.
And just click that link, and it'll take you right to the registration page.
That's right.
And then when you get to that registration page, you're not at True News anymore.
You are at the website of the tour company, and you can walk through the process right there. The itinerary
is there. And look, this is really a low cost tour. I've had people who told me they were
expecting the price to be double what we offered it. And I'm actually glad to hear that because we insisted we worked very very hard
the lowest price
and one of the reasons it was low is that we came in just
at the nick of time
just before that
the tourism
rebounded in the middle east
uh... because
after we made our decision, after we
locked things down, the hotel started to fill up, the airline started to fill up,
so we got in just at the just a nick of time when prices were still low because
tourism was down because of the last two years of COVID. And so all the countries in the Middle East
have been hoping that the tourists would come back.
And so we got in at the right time.
And that's why the price is low.
But I had people telling me
they expected the price to be around $5,000 to $6,000.
And so we have it at $29.50 per person.
$29.50, and that is all-inclusive.
That means your airfare on Turkish Airlines
from New York City, JFK, to Amman, Jordan,
your airfare is included.
Your hotels are included.
Your bus transportation from the airport in Jordan
to the hotel, and then when we leave, back to the airport.
That's included.
Your bus transportation in Jordan
to all of the biblical sites.
All of us are going to be traveling together.
Doc's going to be there.
I'm going to be there.
We're all going to be traveling together.
We have 48 seats on the bus.
That's it.
We can't put any more seats on the bus.
Not 49.
Yep.
And we can't get any more hotel rooms.
We can't get any more airline seats.
That's it.
48.
That's what we have.
And so when the 48th person has paid,
that's it.
It closes for this trip and we'll take another one next year. But
for this one, we're limited to 48 people. So please, yeah, go ahead.
I was just going to say, if we're bringing the True News side up, you'll see what it looks like
here. You see the banner there. You see a picture of one of the amphitheaters that we visit. That's
the one that had the echo where you can stand in one part of the amphitheaters that we visit. That's the one that had the echo,
where you could stand in one part of the amphitheater
and hear your voice in the other.
It was really amazing.
But you see the blue banner there,
you click on the blue banner where it says,
join Rick and Doc on a Holy Land tour in Jordan.
And as Rick said, you are reserving your seat.
You are actually going through the process
of picking up your seat now,
paying for your seat now.
And it's non-refundable.
Right.
Because of the time constraints.
Hey, I've got to tell you one story.
We'll keep that up there.
So this is an old ancient Roman theater in Amman, Jordan.
And the park supervisor, this was a national park in Jordan, the supervisor of the
park gave us a tour. And so he went to the far right side. You can't see it. But to the far
right side, he said, look, I am going to get down on my hands and knees
and I'm going to speak to you.
Now, Rick, you go over to the other side.
And if you see on the far left side,
in that first indentation, that panel in the stone,
you see right there just above where it says,
join Rick. So Bassam, who is our team member, he took me over there and he said,
now you get down on your hands and knees. And I'm like, what is going on here? And he said, put your ear up to that block.
Doc, we had a phone conversation.
Yes.
That man was speaking into...
A hole in the wall.
Into a hole in the wall on the other side.
And I was hearing it on my side and we were talking to each other.
It was like an ancient Roman in-house phone system.
And in a way it was, because when they would have
performances in the theater, there was no way
to communicate with the other performers
across the staging area, the platform area.
You couldn't just signal to them or anything.
They would talk to the wall,
and they would send your voice across.
And the people in the seats didn't hear it at all.
Nobody else could hear it.
And what really amazed me about that particular incident
is this was 2,000 years ago.
Yes.
And they had figured this stuff out.
They had cell phone technology, you know,
private intercom.
They had a private intercom with that.
You know, it's going to be a great trip
and it's going to be great to have you on the trip with us.
This is going to be an exciting opportunity
for you to see the Holy Land.
I'm telling you, when I went,
it changed my perspective on the scriptures
and it really opened my eyes to a lot of things.
It's going to do the same thing for you, too.
I want you to come on this trip with Rick and me.
Yeah, and look, we're not hiring a guide.
Doc and I are going to be your guides.
We're going to be on that trip.
We're going to be there with you every single day.
We'll have breakfast with you every morning.
We'll have dinner with you every night. We'll have dinner with you every night.
And we'll be with you on the buses.
And we will get you back and forth.
And we'll be doing Bible studies.
Right, so bring your Bible.
Yeah, bring your Bible.
Wherever we go, we'll have a Bible study there.
So it is going to be a very enjoyable and blessed trip. And we're also working,
we don't have it lined up yet, but we are working to have a worship service one night before we
leave Jordan. So we'll have our own church service and have communion and worship the Lord
there in Amman, Jordan.
You're going to have a very, very blessed time.
This will be a trip you will remember for many, many years.
There will be very unique things that you will see and that will happen.
And it's going to be a great time for us just to be together.
Very informal and a great time to fellowship.
So this is it. So if you've been waiting,
today's the day. And I got to tell you, when we announced it, we had one person who came over here
to the church and said, I want in. All right. First day, I want in. I said, we're not ready.
We're not ready. Well, I want, I want in. All right, I want in. So I would actually say there's 47 seats.
But then you and I, there's two seats right there.
Right.
Okay?
So there's 45 seats.
So the number's dropping as we speak.
Yeah, so you've got to get moving on this.
And they will be good hotels.
You don't have to worry about it.
We chose very good hotels.
We got great rates um
like i said your your breakfast and your dinner will be included the only thing you'll have to
pay for will be lunch and um and then some you know just for uh any incidentals that you want
to buy or you know souvenirs anything like that but and you know lunch is kind of a western thing
uh yes so because a lot of places over there they don't they don't even do lunch no because usually souvenirs, anything like that. And you know, lunch is kind of a Western thing. Yes.
So because a lot of places over there,
they don't even do lunch.
No.
Because usually they have a good breakfast,
a really good breakfast
that carries you throughout most of the day.
And a big dinner.
Right, and a big dinner.
And so lunch really isn't a priority,
but there will be some people who need it.
But we'll stop.
We'll stop every day for lunch.
And somebody who wants to have lunch will be waiting.
We'll take care of everybody.
But the lunch will be the only thing that you'll have to pay out of your pocket,
plus little things that you buy, little incidentals, any souvenirs, stuff like that,
things you want to bring back.
That's the only money you will need, and everything else is taken care of.
Now, you do need to get yourself from your home city to New York City. That's the
other expense. We all leave together from JFK and New York City. So you've got to get yourself to
JFK. And some of you probably will spend the night, get in the night before, get a hotel,
and then go over to JFK Airport. And this is all clearly spelled get in the night before you get a hotel and then go over to jfk airport and this is
all clearly spelled out in the uh reservation process and everything that you can read online
uh all of it's there that explains everything we're doing each day and uh and the tour company
if you want to if you if you want to get a room the night before they will help take care of it
for you right so just just talk to the representative.
Man, they've been great working with us.
Great team, yes.
And you're going to love them because we already love them.
So I encourage you, if you've been waiting for this opportunity,
the door is open now.
And the tour company in Jordan,
owned by a prominent Christian family,
well-known in Jordan, and they love the Lord. I've heard wonderful
things about the family that is hosting us for this tour. So you're going to have a great,
great time. Go to truenews.com, click the banner at the top of the page. It will take you to the
tour company and you can reserve your seats for the Jordan Holy Land Tour.
