From Highway 2. Top Fox News headquarters in New York City. Always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. All right, well, welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Killmead Show.
So glad you're here. Carly Shimkis at the bottom of the arrow, but most of all, your calls: 1-866-408-7669. We have a lot to discuss today, so including we're just watching now Hunter Biden walk into court. Why would Hunter Biden walk into court? Because a defamation suit by Johnny Paul Mac Isaac, he owns the repair shop that he left the laptop there and he feels he was defamed by Hunter Biden and his team.
They counter-sued. I'd like John Paul Mac Isaac finally getting some justice. What about you? And by the way, what arrogance on Hunter Biden? Drug addict, got it.
Looks hook hook hookers, is daring everybody to look into his background and. Get him in trouble. He doesn't feel as though he'll ever be in trouble, and I think he is so mistaken. But the arrogance is unmistakable. The saunters got to go.
Let's get to the big three.
Now with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. Danny won't be the only one on trial. The right and duty to defend one another will be on trial too.
So our legal team at Razor and Canada are ready to fight for Danny and for every New Yorker's right and duty to defend each other when faced with grave harm. Yeah, Steve Razor just in the green room on Fox and Friends 2. One for two. New York gets one thing right in not charging Jordan Williams after his fatal subway stabbing encounter. He was listed as truly self-defense.
Equally innocent Danny Penny will have to fight for his freedom after saving passengers from a career criminal. We outline the cases. Number two. You guys vanned it. I didn't.
That's I never call the Phygnomics. I don't go around feeding my test Phytnomics.
So the press started calling it by Nomics. What's wrong with him? 2024 polls are out and Trump is up. We bring you out to the trail as the GOP field fans out desperate for some Mo as President Biden decides to run on the economy by Gomics. But no one told him.
Good luck with that. Number one. One. The crux of one of the issues here is that we weren't allowed to ask about the big guy. We weren't allowed to include certain names and document requests and search warrants.
So, you know, we were precluded from following that line of questioning. Just as we thought, why does it take five years to investigate Hunter Biden and the Biden family? Because they weren't allowed to investigate. That, according to Gary Shapley, he is a whistleblower, IRS investigator, heating up. The whistleblower goes public, and it becomes clearer by the day that the Hunter investigation was a sham.
Americans are no longer ignoring Hunter's links to his dad either. What we are learning, where the investigation is going, and why we should all care.
So, Gary Shapley just put his career on the line. Say, you know, I can't believe I'm doing this and trying to follow the line that Hunter Biden, for the last six years, who stumbled into this investigation, has not paid taxes. And every time I go to find out how much he actually owes, it gets bigger because he's doing deals with Romania, getting paid by Burisma, and going to Ukraine, and of course, China, and Kazakhstan. And as they follow, they have to yeah, back off. Yeah, go follow Hunter, but don't don't link to the rest of the family.
Really? Don't link to the rest of the family. The family's benefiting from this. He's flying with his dad. They got to benefit the rest of the family.
Well, they just Don't want you to. You mean you don't want you to?
Okay, David Weiss is in charge. David Weiss is the attorney. He was put there. By Donald Trump.
So he started the investigation, and then he's allowed to finish it.
So they'll get some justice. Wrong. David White says, Yeah, I'm in full control. And it turns out he's not. He announces to a table of 12 people: you know, I'm not the decider here.
Not the decider. You're David Weiss. You're going to decide how much he owes, how much he should be prosecuted, if or how much he should be charged. No, I'm not.
So Gary Shapley's watching this and says, uh what do you mean you're not? I'm doing investigation. I'm handing it over to you. He goes, Yeah, but I'm not going to decide. Merrick Garland calls a press conference last week and says David Weiss has total control.
David Weiss Potenoletti has total control, but behind the scenes, he has no control. Here's Gary Shapley, cut one. Every taxpayer deserves to be treated fairly. And it was my oath of office to make sure that that happens. And we wouldn't meet our mission as an agency with IRS criminal investigation, and we'd really lose the trust of the people of the United States if we didn't ensure that everyone was treated fairly.
In my past, I've voted for both. D's and Rs, and you know, politics are irrelevant when I'm conducting my job. They were told, you're not going to look into the dad, now the president, the so-called big guy, a wife said he was rejected trying to bring the case to DC and Los Angeles. And when Gary Shapley heard this, he memorialized it, he emailed it, and he sent it out. This whole conversation was so amazed by it.
He said, What do you mean you can't do this?
So everybody in the room, which included FBI agents, he emailed it out and said, This is what I see, these are the minutes of the meeting. Is this how you remember it? And they said, You got it. You remember it. That's the way it is.
So he's got additional people. They might not want to put their career on the line like Chapley did. But they saying this is a sham.
Now, you guys all knew that. Even Joe Biden fans, the three of them that are left, knew that this wasn't a real five-year investigation into a crack addict with hookers, a laptop that reveals everything. You knew if there was a real investigation, it would have been bigger and would have revealed the direct links to other members of his family. And we don't know what talent they brought to the table, except for. influence that the dad got over the course of forty years.
We have Hunter Biden-linked accounts receiving $5 million day after a threatening WhatsApp message. That investigators are able to get from Apple when they put a subpoena on Apple. It says, We're doing an investigation, you got to give it to us. He goes, Okay, here's the WhatsApp text messages. And they basically threatened the Chinese official in the WhatsApp text message.
Cut to. I was there and I witnessed this personally and He started with he's not the deciding person on whether or not charges are filed or not. If you follow the path of where the venue leads you. That went to the DC U.S. Attorney's Office in March of 2022, and they presented this case to them.
At the same time of that, same time as that was occurring, they requested discovery from the agents, which is a typical step when they're getting ready to charge.
Now, I wasn't in those meetings. I asked to be in those meetings, as did the case agent, so we didn't help present to them. But after that occurred, he was no longer looking to charge in that district. How maddening is that? And this guy cares enough to say, I need.
Go ahead. You watch those interviews on CBS and on Fox. And you tell me that you got a problem with Shapley. Good luck with that. He's unbelievably credible.
You know, an IRS investigator, and not the most popular people in the world. Do you remember that? Have you ever been audited? They're pretty aggressive.
So we're usually on the other side. He can't believe that. he was only told to pay taxes on one point five million. This guy says it's more like seven million. Comer just told us twenty million and it could be as much as forty million dollars as they look at five more banks.
That's a lot of taxes.
Meanwhile, do you picture this? Can you imagine owing taxes and having somebody else pay your tax bill? He goes, Yeah, Hunter never paid us. It was somebody else that paid us. Why do they need to know?
Because you need to know where your money's going. You just can't pay somebody's tax bill. Then where's your $100,000 going? Miscellaneous? Is that going to work?
So remember, Shapley said they could not, that David Weiss told him, I could not bring this to criminal, to trial in D.C. or Los Angeles. And he didn't have control. When Merrick Garland heard this, this is what he said on Friday, cut three. Mr.
Weiss, who was appointed by President Trump as the U.S. Attorney in Delaware and assigned this matter during the previous administration, would be permitted to continue his investigation and to make a decision to prosecute any way in which he wanted to. Can you explain the rationale for not appointing a special counsel in this case? Mr. Weiss had, in fact, more authority than a special counsel would have had.
He had and has complete authority, as I said, to bring a case anywhere he wants. In his discretion. He doesn't.
So I need Merritt Garland. Either he was lied to by people beneath him. Or he is just flat out: no one will ever question my integrity. President Trump Biden will never fire me, so I'll call a press conference. Anything to keep Donald Trump out of office, is that the goal?
That seems to be the goal.
So You got the play-by-play of this whole situation. What I want to do is be able to arm you. I know many of you are going to have barbecues, meet family, and they're going to start discussing this. I always want you to feel that you could discuss this case because there are complicated cases, the Whitewater thing, it's hard to wrap your head around. The Libby investigation sometimes could be a little bit confusing, Benghazi and everything.
But this is not. Because it's laid out so clearly. And so the Bidens just feel they're going to get away with everything. I mean, listen, did you see yesterday when It looked like the president was caught by surprise. When somebody brought up this whole story with Hunter and getting a a sweet ass deal.
Cut eleven. President Biden, how involved were you in your Sud's Chinese shakedown text message? Were you sitting down? Were you involved? Yeah, I want it.
Were you no See how angry he is?
Well, then Hunter Biden's a liar because in the text message he says, My dad is sitting right next to me. And they did do a they did a GPS on where he was located when he sent out the what zap text, and he was at the dad's house. We don't know if his father was there. I don't know if that's gettable. They can ask the President under oath, hey, by the way, were you sitting next to your son?
When he threatened this Chinese executive with direct links to the Chinese party? Don't know. Don't know if that came up. Here's more from Shapley, cut four. I didn't learn that fact until October 7th of 2022.
So, looking back to March of 2022. And that's when David Weiss, in October 7th, 2022, said that the DC U.S. Attorney's Office will not allow us to charge there. And then he added that he would request special counsel, he requested special counsel authority and was denied in that meeting. I even had him repeat that.
because I knew how important that fact was and I wanted to make sure I understood it. Hmm.
So it's just Can you imagine this? I mean, to me, it was very, very smart of James Comer not to go for the tax records of the Bidens. Instead, go for tax records of the transactions as you know them. Go with suspicious. Investigate suspicious account activity reports.
Go go for them and find out what's behind it. And then you'll find out about the shell companies. Find out where the money came in, where the money came out.
So in terms of Believing Gary Shapley or not, the IRS investigator. This is the best he could do, and he is And I think it's pretty good. Because you don't know if anybody else wants to be a whistleblower. Because look, your family, you could it's your livelihood. You put fourteen years in and you're trying to get to twenty, you're trying to get a pension and you see something, you speak up and they go, Yeah, we're going to get rid of you.
Uh we don't really want you around. And there are there are whistleblower protections, but evidently it's not that easy. Cut five. I documented it. The email, this is an exhibit in the House Ways and Means Committee testimony, was when I returned home that evening, I documented it in an email, and it's an exhibit.
You can look right on there. And I sent that email to two senior executives, one of which was at that meeting, and I said, Is this accurate reflection of what occurred? during the meeting. And the response was, you covered it all.
So there are other things in that email to include. that he needed to go to California and he had gone to California to request a charge there. And then he even opines that if they declined to allow charges that he would have to request special counsel authority from the Deputy Attorney General or Attorney General. Here we go. Game on.
Hunter's linked accounts received $5 million days after the threatening text messages. They didn't even pay his own fine with the court case that was handed with the decision, the plea bargain that was handed down, which will be confirmed or rejected in a couple of weeks in July. He says the IRS wanted a search warrant for Hunter's storage locker. And the assistant there, this woman Leslie Wolfe, said, Yeah, you're not allowed to go in there. There's probably going to be evidence in there, and they just don't want you in there.
Can you believe this? It's like a bad after-school special. Says investigators weren't allowed to ask questions about the President Biden or include certain names during the Hunter-Biden probe, and it drove him nuts. And that's why he did what he did coming forward. He looks credible.
Good luck with it. Yeah, you just go out and tell me that Chapley's lying because he loves Trump. Doesn't look like a good Trump lover, believe me. And he might vote for Trump, I I would d highly doubt it. But When you do this for a living for 14 years, you take great pride in doing it.
And for the first time in your career, you're stopped from doing a legitimate investigation, and it actually affects national security and foreign policy. I think it's time to speak up. The President's going to be speaking today on another network in the afternoon. Very curious how many of these questions he's going to get. Because on MSNBC, last time he was on there, they say Hunter Biden's investigation, even though nothing is at all linked to you, Excuse me?
It is all linked to you. 1866-408-7669. Line up to calls. When we get back, I'll take some of them. Bottom of the hour, we'll expand on this.
Also, talk about the tragedy in New York as Danny Penny gets charged for the takedown of that would-be attacker on a subway because he ended up dying. This is the Brian Kill Me Show.
So much to go over.
So glad you're here. Politics, current events, and news that affects you. Brian's got a lot more to say. Stay with Brian Kilmead. From the Fox News Podcasts Network.
I'm Ben Dominich, Fox News contributor and editor of the Transom.com daily newsletter, and I'm inviting you to join a conversation every week. It's the Ben Dominich Podcast. Subscribe and listen now by going to FoxnewsPodcasts.com. He's so busy, he'll make your head spin. It's Brian Killmead.
I think the key here is that we are well past the threshold for oversight investigations and the possibility of impeachable offenses. You can't deny that. There are false statements here that have to be explored. And so, oversight committees have every right to delve into these issues, and I think courts will support them. At this point, the power of Congress to investigate this matter is at its apex.
There are criminal and potentially impeachable matters involved, and they can move this aggressively and quickly, in my view. All right, here we go. That is Jonathan Turley talking about the possibility of really moving forward and blowing up this plea deal, which is really laughing in our face. And we just watched Hunter Biden walk in to his defamation suit by Johnny Paul Mock Isaac. They've countersued each other.
But just to have Hunter Biden sit there and say what he said to ABC News, I don't know if it's my laptop. I really don't remember. I have a little bit of a problem. Oh, yeah, on there is a whole bunch of lured photos. Maybe this will remind you of you.
Is there any way it won't be your laptop? Is this really an exchange with your email?
So, this is an opportunity to do more than just that.
So, a lot of you are writing me, and I appreciate it. Wayne writes this. You mentioned this morning that Hunter Biden claimed the Burisma payment was a loan. Should do some research to determine if the loans were forgiven. If so, money would become taxable income.
I actually didn't mention it was a loan. He was getting paid by Burisma, but I appreciate that. And I did not know that that was a tax law. Brian, on the IRS, the IRS came after us for $300, $300 for 12 years. I have letters to prove it.
They finally took an incentive check we were supposed to get. We never owed the money, so I fought it. They finally just stole it from me. I don't know if that's true, how much is true. I'm going by everybody's word, and our listeners are the best, but.
That is the IRS that's the way they operate. That's why I'm just so horrified that we are paying for 87,000 new IRS agents. As much as I salute Gary Shapley, he seems like a great guy, but he also seems pretty relentless. But my hope is they're just going for honesty and truth. They're not just going to screw you, which they can do, especially as people's taxes get a little bit.
Complicated. Eileen O'Connor was on primetime last night. She's a lawyer and former head of the DOJ tax division. I think her insight is essential. Cut 15.
I read Special Agent Shapley's testimony. When I got to page 95, my jaw dropped. That's where the testimony specifies that as early as June 2021, the prosecution team understood that because Crimes must be prosecuted in the district where they occur. Attorney General Garland's failure to make U. S.
Attorney Weiss a special counsel guaranteed that Hunter Biden would not be prosecuted for his tax crimes. Interesting. I mean, we we don't usually get this deep in our lives because we're not trying to use our family's influence to get loans and do high wire international business deals with other nations, especially enemy nations. But it's fascinating how much they felt they could get away with. And if they didn't get that majority in the House, they would have.
But I and everyone's so down, and then no one ever pays right. I think they're going to pay the price. Mr. Weiss was appointed by President Trump as the U.S. Attorney in Delaware and assigned this matter during the previous administration, would be permitted to continue his investigation.
Information you want, truth you demand. This is the Brian Kill Me Show.
Well, I just think it's ironic because the media went all in on this is Russian disinformation for so long. There are still Democrats in Congress if they only get their news from MSNBC. They really still don't know that the laptop is Hunter Biden's. They still think that it was compromised somehow.
So the fact that the Bidens have denied that this was his laptop for so long, and now they're going to have to admit it in court today, I think is very ironic. Right, and that's what's going to happen because the defamation lawsuit, the Johnny Paul, Mac, Isaac, Four Names, One Man, One Cap, will demand that this guy stop. And they countersued and said, you should never have let the laptop out, which, by the way, we're not saying. Is it is or not? Cole Shimkis is here, or she says she's here.
Co-host of Foxy and Friends First. Hi, Carly. Oh, I'm here. You are here. In the flesh.
There are very few funny things about this Hunter Biden situation, but your cap joke was funny. Thank you. Johnny Paul Mack Isaac walked into The FBI and say, listen, this guy is Hunter Biden, this stuff is pretty bad. He wanted me to download this laptop, but I I got to tell you, there's crimes on here. Check it out.
And the FBI basically treated him like a criminal. Everything is so backwards when it comes to this situation. And the thing that I find very interesting is that Hunter Biden is still. Suing John Paul Mack Isaac. How could you be suing somebody when his latest?
Uh statement on the laptop is he's not sure it's his.
So it's like you're suing him because he has a laptop that you still aren't saying definitively is yours?
So what's interesting is I heard that the White House not happy with Hunter's legal team 'cause they're too aggressive. And that's an example. They're like, Do you really want to do this? Really? You heard that?
Yeah. I heard that. Wow, that's interesting.
So that is interesting. It's very rare when Carly says, I'm interesting.
So I'm going to hold on to this moment. Give me a second.
Okay, I'm back. I think you're interesting. And I do have to say, uh, what day was it when I thought your outfit was fabulous? Right. Not today.
Well, it's good today. But yesterday was standout. I don't remember what I was wearing. It was that teal tie. It's just everything.
You look at the table. Do you remember if I look up? He's not even there. Where'd he go? I don't know.
I don't think he likes you. Exactly. I think he said, I'll book her, but I'm not going to say anything about it. Yep, that's right.
Well, I know there was a massive booking war for me in this moment.
So guys won. Here's more from James Comer, Cut Nine. This is a cover-up of public corruption at the highest levels. And if you go back to when we brought the general counsel for the National Archives in for a transcribed interview in the House Oversight Committee, they said the DOJ told them to stand down. We have FBI whistleblowers that Senator Grassley and I have worked with that said they were told to stand down.
on this investigation of Biden bribery.
Now you have two very credible IRS whistleblowers who have said the same thing. They started finding those shell companies that we've disclosed in the House Overtalk Committee, and I think they were on number five or number six out of 19, and they were told to stand down. Yeah. I thought that the interview yesterday with Gary Shapley was very interesting and. Uh The fact that Hunter Biden got the plea deal gives merit to everything he's saying because it's clear that he was given special treatment.
That's one part of the story, but I think the major story is obviously all that he was not allowed to investigate. The laptop didn't come into, wasn't allowed to be investigated. The WhatsApp messages that now we know came from Apple themselves through an electronic subpoena, electronic, that was not allowed to be investigated. And then also, if you remember, all that's going on with this FBI 1023 form, where there's this allegation of bribery, and that's the big, what could possibly be the smoking gun, that was sent to Delaware, but investigators weren't allowed to use that either.
So, I know it's absolutely nuts. It's like all of this information where there's. Th there's clearly something that Happened here and investigators are being blocked. The interesting part is that we know all of this, and they're still being blocked from this. I know, but I did when I when you weren't on yet at five because you guys used to be on at four in the morning, but evidently you just don't want to get up there early.
We have to set the alarms back. Yes, this was our idea. Yeah, but you're on at five.
So I was switched to another channel, and I go, wait a second, I thought I was on CNN. And I was. Yeah. And it was about 35 after. This is a lead story.
They put 35 minutes into this show. They did a pretty thorough look at what the that is very interesting. And you do have to wonder why. That's happening now. Do you know why?
Is it because it's just getting too big, or is it because it's political? I don't know if it's necessarily political. I think there's just too much there. I think, yeah. I mean, it's not as if they go and have a town hall afterwards and said, tell me what you think of Hunter Biden.
They don't even have an interview after. They toss a reporter who does it. Got it. Where we would have it. And there was just a study done by the Media Research Agency that said 50% of the country does not know essential details of the Hunter Biden investigation.
It's also so much there. I think that sometimes these complicated stories, you get lost in the weeds if you're, you know, it's not one that you could just easily pick up. Two points to this story that I find interesting that I don't think are getting enough attention are that it looks like Hunter Biden just straight up didn't pay his taxes in 2014 and 2015 and got away with it because the Statute of Limitations was over. And those are the years that he was taking money from China and Burisma.
So I wonder why they let the Statute of Limitations go on those. And then the Chinese company that he was taking money from, their whole goal was to expand China's reach and influence around the world. World. This is the president of the United States' son.
So, if you care about the China issue, you should really care about that part too. And then the other thing: the Wall Street Journal, their editorial board, points out that President Biden is talking about the economy a lot right now, the Bidenomics. And one of his main messages is that. The rich need to pay their fair share in taxes. And then look at what just happened with his son.
And getting away with not paying any at all. Two things. He's got to take the guns out of his speech, and he's got to take the tax out of his speech. Or else he has no integrity at all. He's got to say, listen, I can't do this.
You know my son didn't pay anything. Even if it's as it appears, $1.5 million to pay $100,000? Are you freaking crazy? Also, the write-offs with the sex clubs and everything like that.
So stop blaming billionaires. Don't be Bernie Sanders like he keeps saying. Can you imagine trying to write that off on your taxes? It's just unbelievable. By the way, do you do you think he does his own taxes?
Did anyone else Did you use turbo tax? You do it yourself, but did does he have an accounting firm? I don't know. I wondered that too. And then Gary Shapley yesterday at Brett Baer said that his business Hunter Biden's business associate told him that he needs to refile his taxes 'cause something went wrong, and Hunter Biden never did.
I mean, maybe he could have asked somebody else to do it, but Man. Here's Eileen O'Connor, and she is the former head of the DOJ Tax Division, CUD16. Because every U.S. attorney is in charge of the law enforcement in his district. Since 2014 and 2015 had to be charged in the District of Columbia, and the later years had to be charged in Los Angeles.
U.S. Attorney Weiss is in Delaware. It was clear that without special counsel authority, U.S. Attorney Weiss was not going to be able to charge Hunter Biden's tax crimes. Yeah.
That was the big revelation also yesterday because the New York Times said that they confirmed those details that Weiss was trying to. Pursue charges in these two areas because those are where the crimes took place. And both Washington DC said, Nope, we're not going to pick up this case. And Los Angeles said no as well.
So that's when David Weiss said, you know what, maybe according to this whistleblower, I need special counsel status because that gives him a broader range to do whatever he wants. And apparently he was turned down.
Now, Mayor Garland is saying none of that happened. And David Weiss himself released a statement and said that I did have ultimate authority. But if you listen to this whistleblower, he said behind closed doors that he was not happy with the way this case was going and he felt like he was getting, you know, getting the runaround. No, he was. Here's Mayor Garland cut three.
mister Weiss, who was appointed by President Trump as the U. S. Attorney in Delaware and assigned this matter during the previous administration, would be permitted to continue his investigation and to make a decision to prosecute any way in which he wanted to. Can you explain the rationale for not appointing a special counsel in this case? Mr.
Weiss had, in fact, more authority than a special counsel would have. He had and has complete authority, as I said, to bring a case anywhere he wants. in his discretion. Yeah, sure. Not clear.
This, in a way, sort of reminds me of covering where COVID came from because it so clearly came from the lab, and yet you weren't allowed to say it, and the evidence is all there. Same thing with this. And obviously, Hunter Biden was getting a favor. He got the play deal. How about this?
There's a storage container. Nobody's there. It's storage.
So we need to go in. Can't go in. Can't go in. Too close to the election. Not going.
You're not allowed to go in. By that time, it's all cleaned out. Everyone's tipped off. And they said, you know, we had certain people we were targeting to talk to him about to try to find out, unwind how much money was exchanged and what the. The goods were.
What did you actually do to get this money? And the only person who answered was Rob Walker. Nine other people were swinging a miss because they were all tipped off that they were going to be pursued. Yeah. And when it comes to the storage container, that was very interesting because Shapley said that prosecutors actually initially gave them the go-ahead.
Yes, there is enough evidence here that you can search the storage unit. And then it got closer to the election. And then they changed their mind. And then ultimately, what happened was that prosecutors ended up telling Hunter Biden's legal team, this search is going to happen.
So what do you think is going to go down? I mean, are you going to move the documents?
So, Carl, I think there's a reasonable suggestion that there's a theory out there that all this stuff happened because people used to not Republican problem, a Trump problem. Nobody thought that Trump should be in office again.
So they'll do anything to keep Trump out. I believe now that it's pretty obvious that they'll do anything to keep the nominee out, whether it's Trump or anybody else. In twenty twenty eight, I think we're going to have similar issues. Unless we can straighten this out. It could be that.
I also just think that if you are A Democrat, and you are in a high-power position. I think a lot of people feel this way. You can get away with whatever you want. You're just in a protected class. I guess so.
When we come back, we're going to find out if Carly needs to know more. Always do. You always do, right? Learn. All right, back in a moment.
Listen to the Brian Kill Me Show. Expanding your knowledge base. It's the Brian Kill Me Show. From his mouth to your ears, it's Brian Kilmade. I just wanted to weigh in on this RFK video with him doing push-ups.
Man's What is he 70? Dude, if I can do nine push-ups when I'm 70. I'll be very disappointed. I don't think it's very many. Biden came out and said, hey man.
You know. I do one to two pull-ups. You know, if I'm at a dinner. Were the bathrooms really far away? That way I don't have to get up and all the way.
RFK is a dope morning routine though, man. He does the push-ups, he does calisthenics. Biden has a morning routine that consists of uh one set of where am I s. And um Then he does that he does that stare thing. You know, he just looks at the wall and tries to figure out who it is.
So that's Jamie Lissowe. Where was Jamie doing this, Eric? Oh, that was just on Instagram. It does sound very similar to his appearances with Craig Gutfeld. With me right now is Carly Shimkis.
Carly, I don't really um I I feel as though you didn't think that was funny. I was trying to understand the point of what he was saying. No offense. You saw the video. I was also distracted by the train sound in the background.
Did you notice that? Yeah, there was a passing. What was the train, Eric? You don't know. Pete, would you find out?
Did you just ask them what trade it was? I'll look into it. Yeah. Number 326. All right, let's find out if there's indeed more to know.

Donaldson has it. There it is. Perfection for Domingo Herbal. Domingo Herbal. And believe it or not, he was on the road too, Carly.
12,479 in Oakland, California. They're a bad team, about to move to Las Vegas. Final score was 11-0. You did not stay up to watch it. No, I don't even know what a perfect game is.
That means 27 up, 27 down. No walks, no hit by banners. No, just got him out. He put the ball in that little box, that imaginary box. Fake imaginary box, yes.
Yeah. Each time. Yes, or someone swung at it, and he was out.
Okay.
So that means no errors, no walks. No hits. Pretty good. Yeah, I congratulate him wholeheartedly. He hasn't even been that good, right, Pete?
No, he hasn't. But here's something for you: the Yankees now lead the major leagues in the most for the most perfect games by a franchise. Finally, that franchise is doing something historic. Yep.
Next.
Okay, new poll shows. You're not going to like this. Golf fans, well, maybe you will. Loathe the PGA Tour Saudi deal. This is a Quinnipiac University poll, my alma mater.
It found that 51% of Americans say they disapprove of the partnership. That's not, well, that's half. Approximately 29 did not offer an opinion, while 21% said that they approve.
So that's how that poll. broke down. A couple of things.
Okay.
They are making the sport bigger. A lot of people don't know the details of it. They don't like the way the live came in, took some of the best players, and then forced the merger. But there's a lot of things about the tour that weren't player-friendly, and they are upping the prices, the prizes. They should make it a lot easier for people who are making their way through.
There's a lot of money in the sport. And I think they brought open people's eyes to make it a little bit more player-friendly. There was nowhere to go. When I was on maternity leave, I watched that golf docuser that followed the players. What did you think?
I loved it. And I want to become a golf person now. How great was it that they're doing it? And at the same time, the live tour happens.
So then you got this drama. Yes. They actually said that their cameras in the room when all the players found out about the PGA Live merger.
So that will be next season. Wow.
So, no one can make sense of it. They're going to find the players that left. Amazing. I thought you merged. Can you imagine that?
They are going to find the players that are going to be able to do that.
So, Dustin Johnson and others. Oh, to make it fair.
Well, why is it fair? No, I heard that the PGA players that turn down live deals are going to get equity in the comp thesis. I don't think anybody, I don't even think they know. Let's find out about this story. The best coffee chains, top five cups of Joe, according to experts.
Number five is caribou coffee, never had it. Number four is Starbucks. How do you know which one? I guess it's pure coffee. Three is Tim Hortons.
Do you like Tim Horton's? Sure, yeah. And number two is Pete's coffee, not your Pete. Nope. And number one, Dunkin' Donuts.
Dunkin' Donuts is a good cup of coffee. I like Dunkin' Donuts over Starbucks because Starbucks coffee is too strong for me. Right, I agree. It takes the lining of your stomach. But it does wake you up.
That's exactly right.
Okay, staying on the drinks topic. Any amount of alcohol could increase the risk of over 60 diseases, according to new research, Walmart. Do you believe some of them? Of those, 28 ailments have already been tied to drinking, such as esophageal. That'll be the worst.
Liver disease and diabetes. Right. So those are the ones that they're supposed to be.
Well, esophagus cancer, it's esophagus. Any amount of alcohol. I just read a study that said drinking red wine is great for you. Right. I choose to follow that study.
But it's not crazy. There is a thing called wine wipes that you can put in your purse or your pocket. You're going to have a glass of red wine out, and it's a little wipe, and you could just, it takes the red wine stain off your mouth. Is that something you need before you come to work? I mean, I'm getting the sense.
I mean, it sounds like you have that in your purse. That's what I'm saying. Right. Yeah. What do you have?
Like, do you do it to loosen up? I don't really like red wine. I like white wine more. Do you do it to loosen up or of all alcohol? What is wrong with this?
No, I'm just saying. No, I drink uh wine and gin. I do like gin. Gin? Mm-hmm.
That's so intriguing. I do not like whiskey. Vodka is good. You like it? Because it tastes like nothing.
But you would love to invest in whiskey. Oh, yes. We we're investing in that whiskey company. What's it called? Cast.
Yes. Cast Deves. I will be an investor. Carly Shimkis, welcome aboard. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest-growing radio talk show.
Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Kilmey Show.
So glad you're here. We come to you from 48th and 6th in midtown, Manhattan, heard around the country, around the world. And this news is breaking. Don't blame yourself if you don't know it. You're about to learn it.
The Supreme Court strikes down affirmative action. To affirmative action plans and competitive college admissions. They dealt affirmative action a major blow, it reads, ruling against the continued use of racial preferences in higher education admissions policies. And by the way, John Roberts on the record in the past saying, being a critic of affirmative action, has said, if you want to stop discrimination, stop discriminating. And that's what he believes affirmative action was.
So we'll see how this goes. People try to spin this on racial issues. It was revolved around race at a time in which this country was having a hard time adjusting to liberty for all. Separate but equal lasted way too long. And affirmative action forced people to open up their eyes and make people do something they weren't doing, colleges.
But now it seems as though, what many people have said, affirmative action has passed its time.
Now, Mark Thiessen, you join us now as not only chief speechwriter for George W. Bush, Washington Post columnist, Fox News contributor. We'll get to other issues, but you're also a deep thinker. Your thoughts about the Supreme Court decision.
Well, it's the right thing to do. I mean, you know, here's the interesting thing: there's a history to this, which is, you know, back there it used to be that all these elite Ivy League schools, it was you everyone was admitted on the old Boyd network, right? And it was all WASPs. And then they started allowing Jews to come in. And what happened was when they were admitting people on the basis of merit, Too many Jews were getting in.
And so what they did is they came up with this concept of holistic admissions, where they would look at different ca not just your grades, not just your test scores, but the the your character and your personality and all that. And it was all designed to keep the Jews out. Yeah. And so now they use holistic admissions to keep the Asians out. And keep other groups out and sort of racially balance the classes as opposed to doing this stuff on merit.
And I just think that's fun. Most Americans think that's fundamentally different from what we should be doing. You should be getting into school on the basis of race, not of race, but on the basis of merit. And it's just common sense. Asian community is the one that brought this forward, and they're likely going to benefit from this because their culture focuses on education.
And they focus on academics. They want to be valedictorian. They want to go to the Ivy League schools and they get results. I don't think we should be telling people enough Asians. No, exactly.
And also, by the way, this is a minority that it wasn't that long ago that they faced the same kind of discrimination that other minorities in this country face. Long before Jim Crow, there were anti-China laws, especially in the Pacific Northwest and California, where Asians weren't allowed in restaurants, and Asians weren't allowed in stay in hotels, and Asians weren't allowed to, all the same things that were being done to African Americans were done to Asians. And then suddenly things turned around and they became enormously successful. And so it's like, apparently, if you're a minority that overcomes discrimination and becomes successful, now you have to be punished. uh for uh for that success.
So you know this is uh this is this is just uh writing a historical wrong. Justice Roberts writes: Many universities have for too long done just the opposite. Uh Done just the opposite. In doing so, they have concluded wrongly, and the touchstone of the individual identity is not challenged, bested, skills built, or lessons learned, but the color of their skin, our Constitution, Constitutional history does not tolerate this choice. The justices were considering two separate legal challenges over just how Harvard University, a private institution, and North Carolina University of, a public institution, decide who fills their classrooms.
We'll see how this goes, but people are going to be talking about this Supreme Court being conservative and being racist. You know that, right? I mean, they're going to say whatever they want to say. The left is going to, they have a clear strategy of trying to delegitimize the court because they don't like the outcomes of the decisions. If it had gone the other way and there were liberal justices, they would have been celebrating it.
So, you know, it's a, you know, it's an outcome-based ethics. But the court is, this is another, I mean, again, all credit to Donald Trump. Donald Trump gave us three outstanding Supreme Court justices, best record of any president and Supreme Court nominations. You know, every other Republican president going all the way back to Nixon, they put more people on who defected to the left than stayed on the right. And even Ronald Reagan, you know, who gave us Anton and Scalia also gave us other justices that didn't do so well.
So credit to Trump. This is the Supreme Court that he gave us, and he deserves a shot. And Mitch McConnell. Mm. And Mitch McConnell, especially Mitch McConnell.
Mitch McConnell took a very courageous step in not moving Merrick Garland. And by the way, everything we're learning about the Hunter Biden investigation, everything, thank God we didn't put Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court. I agree with you wholeheartedly.
So let's talk about what's happening now on the right. Donald Trump, in the latest Fox News poll, has even a wider margin in the GOP nomination race.
So nationally. Donald Trump with 56% of the vote. DeSantis, 22%. Vivek Ramaswamy, 5. Then you got Pence and Scott, 4.
Haley, 3%. Christie, 1, and a whole bunch of ones, including Suarez.
So a couple of things that are happening. If you look at Donald Trump's speeches, they're a little bit crisper. Number two, he's got a very good team around him. And number three, he is dominating all the headlines, isn't he? Yep, he is.
And there's a rally effect when the left goes after him and indicts him. Then a lot of Republicans rally around him. Look, the Republican, it's still extremely early. You know, at this time in 2016, I can't remember who it was, Jeb Bush or Scott Walker, who was in the lead. And things can change.
So, you know, there haven't been any debates yet. There's a long time before voters go to the polls. But look, if you look at the polls, there's a great, really interesting CBS News poll, which shows that basically 25% of the electorate, a quarter of the Republican electorate, is just considering Donald Trump. About a quarter of the Republican electorate will never consider Donald Trump. And 50% is looking at Trump.
looking at other candidates. And if you look at the his numbers, About half of those people are right now saying they're supporting Trump, but that's soft support that they can be convinced to go to somebody else.
So there's a l it is a there's basically seventy five percent of the GOP electorate is up for grabs for any one of these other candidates if they if they if they if somebody emerges. It's just a question of whether one person can emerge to be the challenger to Trump. If it's a one-on-one race, then I think it's competitive. If it's with it's Trump against a field of a half dozen people or a dozen people, then he wins. Uh, I just yeah.
And do you think he wins against uh Joe Biden, who is bumbling his way through reelection? No, I do not win. He thinks he wins against Joe Biden. I think that there was a recent poll that came out of swing voters. And you know, here's an interesting thing: he did he does beat him in this poll.
So here's something. 68% of Americans say that they are concerned that Joe Biden is the, there's an NBC News poll, 68% say Joe Biden is not mentally fit to be president. They're concerned about that. Kamala Harris in that poll, the most unpopular Vice President in the history of the United States of America since polling began, at least in that poll, right? That poll.
So people think that Joe Biden is mentally unfit and that the person who would succeed him, if he if he falters, is the most unpopular person. In that same poll, Biden beats Trump by four points. If you look at there was another Wall Street Journal poll, I think it was, that looked at the voters who disapprove of both Trump and Biden. Biden wins those by 39 points. Swing voters are done with Donald Trump.
And and people and and so there is a huge disapproval of Joe Biden. And people could be convinced to vote for a Republican, but they dislike Donald Trump more than they dislike Joe Biden. And it's and it's I I agree with you that Trump is doing better right now, that he says his speeches are better and all the rest of it. He's done so much irreparable damage to himself with the swing voters by his behavior after the election that it's unrecoverable. I think any other candidate in that GOP field, which is an embarrassment of riches for the Republican Party, any other candidate can crush Joe Biden, the only candidate I think that Joe Biden could be.
Is Donald Trump. But the poll show yesterday the ABC poll from last weekend said at dead heat to Santos and Biden. Trump loses by four. This latest poll has Trump up by one.
So I won. I mean, that's a margin of error. And that's a sign of Biden's weakness, not Trump's popularity. And again, there's other polls showing him losing. I think the reality is their opinions on Trump are set.
I think the opinions of the other Republican candidates are malleable.
So I think there is room to grow. I think Trump has a ceiling that is hard. That is unbreakable. The other candidates don't have that feeling. They have a chance to go out and make the case for themselves and convince swing voters to vote for them.
And I guess, you know, Republicans just have it honestly, I'm looking at I'm watching a slow-moving train wreck. And I'm screaming at the Republican Party: get out of the way, the train is coming, you're going to get crushed. And you know, it people will listen or people won't. Maybe it'll take, you know, maybe it'll take another election. For us to realize that the disaster of the just stop and think to yourself.
what would four more years of Joe Biden be like? Look at how he has declined over the last eighteen months and imagine what he'll be like on Inauguration Day when if he is reinaugurated in January twenty twenty five. Do you think he's going to make it for four years? I don't. Do you think you want Kamala Harris to be to assume the Presidency and be the next Commander in Chief?
That's what's at stake here. It's this is not about avenging Donald Trump. This is about saving the country from the left. And that's got to be the priority. You think one thing that could happen?
Number one, we had a three-year look at Joe Biden, and it's not an imaginary Joe Biden the moderate. We know how bad he is. We know the failure that we're witnessing. We know the absolute disaster he had in Afghanistan, the slow-walking weapons in Ukraine. We see this literally this train wreck, balloon wreck of a China relationship.
And then we watch him debate and fall apart. I mean, this guy's not being able to, he's not pulling off solo speeches right now. He just said uh Russia is not as strong after their war in Iraq. Yeah, twice. On two different apps.
Yeah, in fact here it is, cut twenty-four. It's hard to tell, but he's clearly losing the war in Iraq. He's losing the war at home. And he is uh come with it will fly around the world. Uh it's not just NATO, it's not just the European Union.
It's Japan, it's it's you know, it's forty days.
So no correction, out by himself. Dents in his face from his uh CPAP machine.
So it's absolutely awful what we're witnessing right now. And now he's running on the economy, which only 33% of the country thinks he's doing a good job with. He's actually running on that.
So beatable.
So beatable.
And so, why would we not pick the best candidate to beat him as opposed to the one candidate that could possibly lose to him? Look, I'm not saying that Trump cannot win. It's entirely possible that Biden is so decrepit by the time the election comes around that even Trump can beat him, but he's the least. likely to beat Joe Biden. The entire Republican field.
So the approval rate is 38.3% on average, right? The real clear average.
So here is Joe Biden kind of kicking off his economic message, cut third 23%.
Well, guess what? Less than be A guy driving a truck hit a button. Anyway, he knocked down a whole bridge and the whole block four lanes of the highway. Today, with the help of the Inflation Reduction Act, A new plant's being built. Three quarters of U.
S. industry's Goomork consec consecrated. I'm excuse me. consecrated. I'm thankful I didn't go to Mass.
What the hell is that? Senator Fetterman just called and said: straighten yourself out. Yeah. No, I mean, and they put him up with Fetterman standing next to each other. Who's the genius at the White House for his communication shop?
We say, hey, that's a good idea. Let's put Fetterman and find up together and let's show that to the American people. I mean, again, so, so, you know, it's like the, you know, it reminds me of that old Saturday Night Live skit when Dukakis is debating Bush and, you know, and David Carvey's going, four more years, points of light. And he looks and turns the camera, like, I can't believe I'm losing to this guy. I know.
I thought about the same thing. And meanwhile, Bush was unbelievably competent. He was unbelievably experienced and he was a war hero, but he wasn't as eloquent as he could be. And that's eloquent. That wasn't dementia that was causing.
Yeah, and no one thought he had dementia. They just didn't know if they wanted four more years.
So I want you to hear a little Gary Shapley, the AIRS whistleblower, who's been blowing me away with his facts. It's easy to follow, and his disenchantment is palpable. Here he is, the IRS investigators. That said, I've had it with a five-year slow walking of an investigation into Hunter, and they were not allowed to go into the father who happens to be the president. Listen to him, cut one.
Every taxpayer deserves to be treated fairly. And it was my oath of office to make sure that that happens. And we wouldn't meet our mission as an agency with IRS criminal investigation, and we'd really lose the trust of the people of the United States if we didn't ensure that everyone was treated fairly. In my past, I've voted for both. D's and Rs, and politics are irrelevant when I'm conducting my job.
And he was told, you're not allowed to follow this, you're not allowed to follow that, you're not allowed to go check out storage units. And the father was off limits, and David Weist was not in control of the investigation. Your thoughts about how this is progressing?
Well, David Weiss is going to have to testify under oath. And it the you know, Shapley You know, he says that he at when David Weiss said that he wasn't authorized to to uh to indict him. Shapley says that he asked him again because he realized what an important statement he was making and how unprecedented that was, and he repeated it, and he did it in front of witnesses.
So David Weiss is going to have to testify under oath and he can't lie because there are witnesses to what he said, not just Shapley. It's not just one man's word against another. And the other thing you've got to remember, also, by the way, this is not just a corruption investigation. It's not just a tax investigation. It's not just nepotism.
It's a national security issue. You know, this guy, Henry Zhao, who he's sending this email to, saying, I'm staying here with my father, and we're waiting for your answer. This guy had already, before that email, sent him $5 million from an account he shared in a business with the daughter of the Chinese Minister of State Security. Amazing. She was the daughter-in-law of the head of the Chinese Communist Party's propaganda bureau.
That is a lot worse than holding on to documents. Mark Thiessen. Exactly. Thank you. Take care.
He's the best. Your calls are next. You're the best, too. A talk show that's real. This is the Brian Kill Me Show.
Hey, welcome back, everybody. A lot of you are writing, and I appreciate it. And I'll get to a lot of what you had to say. I mean, here's. one that just came in.
A lot of people are really in Trump's camp and don't want to hear anything negative about him.
Some people think Mark was a little bit too negative. They also are urging to hear, they also love Donald Trump's explanation of what to do in Ukraine. Joe Rogan loved it, is making a lot of news. When Donald Trump came out and said, the first thing I would do in 24 hours is stop the fighting and stop the killing. He said that was a totally reasonable thing.
My feeling about Ukraine, though, both those things are impossible right now. There is a story out there that the general that was in contact with the Wagner chief. Pragosian That general is missing, and that was the general in charge of the nuclear codes. All chaos, all hell's breaking look in Russia. This is a window of opportunity there.
But I don't think Donald Trump's uh Plan of getting in 24 hours ends it because you have the invasion of a country that took 20% of that country. Russia would be totally happy, I think, to stop now. People that wouldn't be happy, the West. and Ukraine. Would we want to give Texas to Mexico?
I don't think so. Daniel Billak is next, and then we'll do a simulcast on Barney and Company. It's going to be a bigger hour.
So glad you're here. A radio show like no other. It's Brian Killmead. There's a couple of things that this exposed. Number one, even if Putin had wanted to stop it, and it appeared that he did, Progojin and his forces shot down multiple Russian aircraft on their way to Moscow, and it exposed that the cupboard is bare when it comes to security forces for internal security.
85% of the Russian military is devoted to Ukraine. All the chips are on that table. And I think Putin's going to be looking over his shoulder for the foreseeable future. Pretty interesting, right? That is Mike Waltz, the go-to guy on all things that don't have anything to do with party, but just about security and defense.
And he was weighing in on what was going on last weekend and what. What has changed since? We understand, too, the general, as I just mentioned, that was in charge of the nuclear codes, with understood to be charged with the nuclear codes, that evidently was in conversation with Progozhin. Last weekend is missing. We are also not sure the whereabouts of the Wagner leader and founder over in Belarus.
Maybe it's different now if we go and check in with Daniel Bilak. He is the member of the Territorial Defense Forces of Ukraine, is an attorney based in Kyiv, put on the camouflage to fight for his country. Daniel, welcome back. Hey, Brian, hello.
So first off, I don't know how much you know about the Russia situation. It is vital to the success of Ukraine, but has anything changed on the ground according to your forces with the counterinsurgency since the uprising on Saturday?
Well, Brian, we just keep taking more land every day. We're moving forward on multiple fronts of a kilometer to two kilometers every day. That may not sound like a like a mile every day. I mean, it doesn't sound like a lot, but it actually is quite substantial, especially when you think about the multiple lines of mines. We've got to go through and all the trenches and the fortifications that have been dug.
You know, and the fact that we don't have plane, we don't have air cover. You know, our troops are moving forward with armor, much of it provided by the people of the United States, which we're very grateful for, but we don't have the air cover. And our guys are just heroically digging them literally out of the trenches. They're losing a battalion a day, Brian, and that's. That's that's a lot.
That's like five, six hundred man. And the other day, they lost over one thousand in one day. And so we're taking the fight to them. We have the strategic initiative, as General Ralusni, our Chief of Chief of the General Staff said. And we're pushing them back in box mode.
And we're pushing them back in Zapodisha front.
So as we move closer to cutting off the land bridge.
So it's it's slow but steady. And we We have not seen, you know, and they've been reinforced by all the guys, the troops they brought from Quezon when they blew the dam. They moved all so it was pretty clear why they blew the the dam in Gent, to flood the plain to make it harder for us to cross and to be able to reinforce their lines in other places using using those troops. But we're undeterred. And we're just going to keep pushing the night.
So I hear we you're supposed to go long range missiles, I thought, from Britain, and I heard your your pilots are being trained for F fifteen's, F sixteens. Have you heard any progress on that?
Well I mean, our it it's one thing to train the pil I mean, our pilots, frankly, should have been started training in in last fall when we when we asked for for this for the first time. Um, you know, unfortunately, it's it's really it's hap it's happening, which is great. Unfortunately, it's not late in the day.
So I mean, we may not get those planes until after the summer, which we need them now. But we can't wait, Brian. We've got to move forward. We got to see the advantage. what we're doing and whatever we get, we'll get.
The long range missiles that the British have given us have proven very effective. We've taken out a key set of bridges that connected the post road to Crimea, which they were using to resupply their forces from Crimea into Zaporizhia and so on and even up into the into the Mets. And uh and you know that if if we had the attackums, we'd be we'd be we'd be so much more effective. But you know, hopefully we'll get those. I understand that there's some movement in Congress that try to get the administration to finally agree on that.
But they would be super, super helpful to us. And you know, the sooner we get this done, Brian, the sooner we all celebrate victory. And the people of the United States can feel very, very proud of what of what they've done to preserve freedom and democracy over in in Europe and against this this terrorist state. I listen, it's a blow to China. Russia every time Russia takes a hit, China takes a hit.
This is an evil combination. Who would have thought that Russia needed to be propped up using North Korean missiles and drones from Iran? I mean, these are junior nations, impoverished nations who brutalize their people. They had I thought they'd have military hardware, but this is supposed to be a semi superpower, and they're falling apart before our eyes. I want you to hear Vladimir Putin.
This is one of the fe he's he yesterday he was seen on the streets And uh this is what he said uh said about the Wagner Group, Cut Thirty Nine. The organizers of the rebellion, betraying their country, their people, betrayed those who were dragged into the crime. They lied to them, pushed them to death, under fire, to shoot at their own. And here's what uh Progozian said, cut forty. We showed a masterclass on how February 24th, 2022, should look like.
We did not have the goal of overthrowing the existing regime and the legally elected government, which we have talked about many times. We turned around so as not to shed the blood of Russian soldiers.
Now, the word is he was expecting other military officers to join him. He was looking to overthrow the Secretary of Defense, who was trying to dissolve the Wagner Group and just fold them into the regular army. I think it's important in the big picture that the Wagner Group is not in, and that Vladimir Putin is not putting a warrant out to kill Burgogian or using his name necessarily. And he's asking for weapons back.
Now I love that the Wagner group is not in. And it's now fighting against you guys. What's been the effect on the battlefield, and what do you think is really happening?
Well, you know, Brian, this is like, you know, Frankenstein's monster turning around and attacking the creator. I mean, you know, Lvodner Group has really been an extension of the Russian military. They were created to allow Russia some form of plausible deniability when when they go into African and and era and Middle Eastern countries and try to either overthrow governments or or support the People like Syria and Iran. But it just shows how completely compromised and weak. uh Putin is and how completely corrupt and and weak Russia is.
Uh you know, you could it it took them it took them a year. They took Vine there a year to take Bakhmu, and they almost took Moscow. They took Rostov in two hours and almost took Moscow in a day.
So it gives you a pretty good idea that A, there's you know, the emperor has no kills and there's nothing worse for a dictator than to stop being feared by his people.
So Putin's paranoia must be at just like unprecedented levels right now. And he's been trying he has to compromise with basically a warlord. And it shows that Russia doesn't have an army that can fight. He's got to rely on warlords. And he's got to rely on Chechnyans.
The Chechnyans were going to go go going to confront Wagner. I mean, what kind of country is this? They're the eighty-five percent of their military is deployed in your country.
So and they're not doing well. They're good at mining people and killing civilians.
So I want you to hear Will Hurd, as you know, you might know, the congressman from Texas running for president, who spent nine years in the CIA. And this is what he said. He's not somebody just to fly off the handle either. And one of the things that I was concerned that Secretary Blinken said, he said, help the Ukrainians take back. land that they lost in the last 16 months.
How about we take back land that they lost since 2014? We should be making sure that we're supporting Ukraine in pushing the Russians out of Crimea, out of the Donbas. And I hope that was just him misspeaking and that the official policy is not just going back to the way things were when the Russians most recently invaded 16 months ago. Uh I know you he's singing your song, but what is the US policy, Daniel?
Well Yeah. I I mean I'll go. I'm really hoping that it is going to continue to be that total victory means back to our territorial boundaries and our full sovereignty of 1991, meaning all of our territory back, including Crimea and the Donbass. I mean, you and I both know, Brian, that if we leave the Russians on one square inch of Ukrainian soil, there will never be peace in Europe. And it'll be a pause.
And he'll just rearm, regroup, and come back. And the only way to ensure peace in Europe is to defeat the Russian army. We are now the eastern shield of NATO. We've got the NATO summit coming up. NATO needs Ukraine as much as Ukraine needs NATO.
I mean, without us in fighting this fight, there would be huge security issues. in the Baltic and in Poland, he would come after them, and that's when American soldiers would die. The English war is costing the American taxpayer 50 cents a day and no cost in American lives. You know, this this victory will be the greatest victory of the United States in the post-World War II era. Yeah, and we just stopped the expansionism.
Daniel Bilak, the, the, the, uh, obviously, the line isn't great, but my goodness, he's in Kyiv. He's in Ukraine. The guy's an accountant, put on the fatigues, and is fighting this war. That's how hard they're fighting, and that's where your money's going. And I think you should feel good about it.
Barney and company will do a simulcast next. You'll listen to the Brian Kill Me Show. At the back end of my live simulcast, I'll be able to take some calls.
So, line up.
Now, the Brian Kilmead Show joins Fox Business's Varney and Company with Stuart Varney, live on your radio and on Fox Business. Here's Brian Kilmead. Hi everyone, welcome back. In a matter of moments, we're going to go on FBN, the Fox Business Network, and we're going to be talking about a few things. We're going to be talking about Hunter Biden, the investigation that's moving forward that even other people are tracking.
Other networks besides ours? Also, we're going to be talking about the New York City Pizza Alliance, which is fantastic. And also looking at the historic ruling by the Supreme Court that overturns affirmative action as a reason to get admission into college. And I think we're ready as a country. What about you?
But first let's listen in. Off into space. We are following it. And guess what? It's 10.51 on the East Coast.
That means it's time for Brian Kilmey. Great to see you, Brian. Look, we've been looking at Hunter Biden walking into his deposition this morning casually with his backpack on. He's going to be there for a lawsuit from the owner of that laptop repair shop who's wanting damages for defamation. You know, Hunter's scandals, I hate to say, are really piling up because it really doesn't do it justice.
I mean, where do we go from here? It's drip, drip, drip of scandal, scandal, scandal. And this guy just seems to just float along merrily, doesn't he? And we're not looking at new scandals. This is paying for the old scandals where he seems to still think he's impervious to ever getting any type of punishment.
Think about when he shows up at that Modi dinner in front of everyone, know the cameras were rolling. Think about going to Camp David with his father when the Russian invasion's happening, knowing this the Hunter Biden explanation, the whistleblowers coming forward about the true investigation. And now, think about Johnny Mac Isaac. He is the one who was just absolutely getting death threats because he handed in the Hunter Biden laptop to the FBI. And after nine months of feeling like a criminal from the FBI and basically had his dad step in to kind of watch his back, who's got the military background, then all of a sudden this becomes major news.
He was told the laptop is fake. Johnny Mac Isaac, again, he has to go hide. He's worried about his own welfare. And now when even the Washington Post says it's real, he said, wait a second. They're still defaming me.
They won't admit it. It's his technically, but they're counter-suing him now for exposing things on the laptop while still not admitting. Then it's his laptop. It's just mind-boggling, the whole thing. But I want to move on to another scandal.
A pizza alliance, Brian, has been formed to fight against New York's new rules on coal and wood-fired pizza ovens. The city wants them to cut emissions by 75%. That means they could end up spending $20,000 on new filters. Of all the things that are happening in New York City, and we've been talking about this a lot, but is this the focus that we really should be looking at? It's bizarre.
I mean, the same thing Mayor Adams yesterday saying kids should make sure that every teacher gives kids five to seven minutes just to sit there still and breathe. Really? Okay, is that the way you want to get math scores up and English scores to soar? They're way below gradeboard average, and now they decide to focus on pizza kitchens. You know what is emblematic of something you talk about all the time?
You have no sense in the Democratic Party of what it is it like to run a business. Nobody who ever ran a small business in their life from dry cleaner to small restaurant would ever walk in and put a mandate on something with margins so small that will require $20,000 or you're shut down. They also wouldn't have been shutting down businesses and fining them the way they were during the pandemic. Crashing into kitchens, trying to find a short order cook with the mask below his nose so they can hit you with a $10,000 fine. That's very similar to the $20,000 you've got to go to clean up w what's in your chimney.
And don't tell me it's not going to change the taste of the pizza. It absolutely will affect the heat. Experts say that absolutely will affect the pizza. Can you take you want to take everything good about New York? It's bad enough the Mets are having such a disappointing season.
Now we're giving up pizza. But I love that they're combining. I love that they're combining and becoming a force, and I hope they all show up because they if you've ever been to a pizza place, they are loud and they are confident people, and you don't want to cross them. You don't. We had Paulie G on yesterday.
I know you did on Fox and Friends. He was great. Very quickly, though, what always just absolutely boggles my mind more than anything is these policies are ridiculous. And yet, in New York City, in Chicago, in San Francisco, these liberal progressive government leaders, even when they're booted out of office, they're replaced by another liberal progressive leader. I don't understand why voters don't kick them out altogether.
You know, Ashley, the other thing is, Republicans are to blame too. They just have given up on the cities. We're the organizations. It might take a few elections, but you present them with another opportunity, another legitimate option. It makes everybody better.
But right now, they say, let's just focus on the governor races. Let's focus on the areas in which we can be successful. Instead of realizing to be a successful party, you can't do it without the urban community. We become very polarized when we give up on certain sections of the country. And I would love to see a Rudy Giuliani.
Johnny emerge in Chicago and in Philadelphia and in New York and in Los Angeles and San Francisco. We'll keep on dreaming and the next pizza's on me, Brian. That's a promise. Thanks so much for joining us today on Fox Business Week. We'll go get it, Ashley.
And I'm going to hold you to that. Thank you. All right. You do. We are moments.
And that is true. And in case you don't know, if you're not in New York, they just came in with this mandate that you have to, with coal and with wood, they decide the carbon footprint is too great.
So if you have an oven that was not put in prior to 2016, that was put in prior to 2016, you got to change it within a very short period of time. You've got to alter it. We're going to have inspectors, and they're good at inspecting in New York. Or I will shut you down.
So that's a $20,000 investment.
So we've asked a few pizza people, especially after the pandemic, what do you think? Do you have it? He goes, well, no, I don't have $20,000 sitting around.
So in uh a mandate That is unfunded to the small business people fighting to sell every slice in order to. Make ends meet. We would just do the opposite. They say the Biden administration overall has added. $10,000 to every family due to regulation.
The one thing that Trump did, as experts will reveal later, more than the tax cuts, which were the corporate tax cuts, got to 21%, brought back trillions, but the one thing that Trump did better than anybody else, he cut regulation and even said to me, I might even say it on this show, cutting regulations. Was even more effective than anything we did on tax cuts because it also gives the business owner a sense that we're on your side. How can I help you? It's kind of the attitude that Texas and Florida has. How do we get you down here?
How do we get you to be a police officer in our city? How do we get you to get your pool company in our city? How do we get Elon Musk and SpaceX out of California to Texas? Give them a tax break, give them some land, and tell them they're appreciated. And all they want to do is give back.
That's the attitude. We need that in America again. From Hayatum, Fox News Headquarters in New York City. Always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Killmead.
Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Kill Meet Show. We're going to have EJ and Tony with us, economists with the Heritage Foundation, in a matter of about 15 minutes. And then Kennedy at the bottom of the hour to ride the breaking news, which is about the Supreme Court. They have just struck down.
Affirmative action means we're all on a level playing field when it comes to getting admitted to colleges. Remember, this case was brought and got to the Supreme Court level when an Asian American decided that he was being discriminated against because his grades were through the roof. He should be getting into an Ivy Lee school, but he wouldn't because there were already enough Asians. And he thought to himself, Wait a second, how could you discriminate me? I'm a minority and I can't get in because other Asians also have good grades.
So this came up to the highest level. John Roberts had made a statement in the past. I'll paraphrase it. If you want to end discrimination, stop discriminating. And they believe that discriminating when it comes to college admissions in 2023 is discrimination, deciding that if you are a minority, you should have a leg up on, I guess, white people.
That to me is no longer going to fly in theory with these colleges.
Now, keep in mind, too, when it comes to this, the debate is worthy because a lot of people who do it on their own merits, who happen to be a minority, say they walk around campus and then people look at me as if to say, the only reason you're here is because of the color of your skin.
So the people that earn their way in. Have that label. Also, if you get into a university that you can't handle, that your high school grades and your SAT scores reveal that you can't handle an Ivy League school, you're not helping anybody. You're struggling, you're not getting out of it, you're going to hate it. And you're not an institution, so reflective of what you've learned to this point.
So that's the other side of it. But just another interesting thing coming from Coming from the Supreme Court. And of course, everybody on the left is outraged. They say it's unbelievable. Can you pop up again the dissent if you can, Pete?
So the dissent on this is from Sotomayor. Obviously, I think the decision. One on uh party lines. But here's what Sotomayor wrote in dissent: Notwithstanding this court's actions, society's progress towards equality cannot be permanently halted. Diversity is now a fundamental American value, housed in our varied and multicultural American community that only continues to grow.
The pursuit of racial diversity will go on. Although the court has stripped out almost all uses of race and college admissions, universities can and should continue to use all available tools to meet society's needs for diversity in education. Despite the court's unjustified exercise of power, that's what she believes. The opinion today will serve only to highlight the court's own impotence in the face of America whose cries for equality resound. As has been the case before in the history of America, democracy, the arc of the moral universe will bend towards racial justice despite the Court's efforts today to impede its progress.
Martin Luther King said, Our God is marching on. There you go. Or you could say society's got to the point where they don't need it. that African Americans, Asians, Minorities don't need a leg up. Because they melted into the country, they have been able to use the same educational system, and they don't need to be graded on a curve anymore.
We'll talk about that. All right, I do want to talk about what's happened with Hunter Biden. Last night, Gary Shapley did his second network interview, and it was with Brett Baer. Who is Gary Shapley? Gary Shapley is the IRS whistleblower.
What has he done? He's worked on the Hunter Biden case for the past five years, and for the last fourteen years, he's been an investigator for the IRS. You know, relentless guy. We've all had these people in our lives, in our work. And you know what it's like?
If you have a small fine of $5,000 to $7,000, $80,000, they're coming after you. They're figuring out a way. They'll garnish your wages if they have to. I got an email earlier that a guy said that I was owed a $300,000. The IRS said they owed $300.
He didn't believe it. He kept going back. They kept fighting it. And finally, they just took it. They took it out of his paycheck.
So that's how ruthless they can be. And this guy could not believe that Hunter Biden, making all this money overseas, was paying almost no taxes, didn't even file in 2014 and 2015 while doing deals with Kazakhstan, China, writing off things like sex clubs along the way. And the IRS got a hold of this. They were about to blow it up, and they were told you can't pursue it. You can't pursue it against the father who ended up being the president.
You can't pursue it against the family. And we're going to give it, they ended up giving a heads up the The prosecution got a heads up. Gave a heads up to the defense, to the Bidens, before any raid was done or any investigation took place. In fact, everybody was given a heads up. Who were friends or business partners of the Bidens?
Nobody talked to them except for Rob Walker, and he was helpful.
So here's a little of what. Shapley said he said the IRS wanted to get a search warrant for Hunter's storage locker, but prosecutors tipped off the lawyers, said investigators weren't allowed to ask questions about the President or include certain names during the Hunter probe. Hunter's Layton account received $5 million days after the WhatsApp message that was threatened by one of the CEOs of this Chinese energy company. How does that happen? And it's estimated, according to Shapley, that he actually earned $8 million in never pay taxes, not $1.5 million.
James Comer came out and says it's more like twenty and growing. Here's Gary Shapley, cut two. I was there and I witnessed this personally and He started with, he's not the deciding person on whether or not charges are filed or not. If you follow the path of where the venue leads you, that went to the DC U.S. Attorney's Office in March of 2022.
And they presented this case to them. At the same time of that, same time as that was occurring, they requested discovery from the agents, which is a typical step when they're getting ready to charge.
Now, I wasn't in those meetings. I asked to be in those meetings, as did the case agent, so we didn't help present to them. But after that occurred, he was no longer looking to charge in that district. So the guy is David Weiss. He was in charge, but he wasn't really in charge.
He said he was in charge. He wrote a letter to Jim Jordan saying he was in charge. Merrick Garland says he was in charge. But in these meetings with IRS agents and FBI agents, he said he wasn't. You just heard that.
So when Shapley was done, he memorialized this in an email and then sent it to some of the people in that room and said, guys, is this how you remember this conversation? And they wrote back and they said, Yes, you got it exactly. That's it.
So he's they say, I'm gonna come forward. He ends up coming forward, cut forward. I didn't learn that fact until October 7th of 2022.
So, looking back to March of 2022. And that's when David Weiss, in October 7th, 2022, said that the DC U.S. Attorney's Office will not allow us to charge there. And then he added that he would request special counsel, he requested special counsel authority and was denied in that meeting. I even had him repeat that.
because I knew how important that fact was and I wanted to make sure I understood it. There you go. I'll play another one here. This is about following up with President Biden because, in his mind, especially in the WhatsApp message saying his father, Hunter Biden, said, My father's sitting right next to me. This is what he said, cut six.
When we received the the attorney client filter reviewed copy of information from the search warrant to Apple, which produced that document, we went back to the prosecutors and we requested to take various investigative steps, and they were not supported. And when they weren't supported, they said, well, maybe he wasn't co-located with him.
So, well, we can take investigative steps to see if that happened. And they didn't support anything in relation to that effort. And it's consistent with our ongoing theme of not allowing us to pursue or ask questions about President Biden, the big guy. Sis maddening or what? And they're cutting close.
And you can see that Biden is getting a little, he's always ticked off. But he he gets up, he talks to the press, he thinks he's going to talk Russia. And seemed shocked to get this question. Cut eleven. What do you find and how involved are you if you're such Chinese?
Shake down text message. Were you sitting there? Were you involved? No, I want it. Were you no?
A little angry, huh?
Well, then your son's a liar, just telling you. You know the son that's always does everything right and is great. He's a liar because he said, my dad's sitting right next to me. They geolocated him and he was in the beach house when he sent the WhatsApp message. How do you get the WhatsApp message?
They sent the subpoena to Apple. Apple cooperated And they gave it to him. That's the one of the few cooperations.
So what does it mean in perspective? Jonathan Turley weighed in last night, cut twelve. I think the key here is that we are well past the threshold for oversight investigations and the possibility of impeachable offenses. You can't deny that. There are false statements here that have to be explored.
And so, oversight committees have every right to delve into these issues, and I think courts will support them. At this point, the power of Congress to investigate this matter is at its apex. There are criminal and potentially impeachable matters involved, and they can move this aggressively and quickly, in my view. So there you go. Listen, I'm going to take a time out now and come back with more on this with E.
J. Antonio's and Economists, Heritage Foundation. President Biden yesterday decided to change subjects and has decided to officially be a candidate and have a policy, and that is to underline his great economy. The problem is, the numbers reveal that only 33% of the country thinks our economy is. Great.
And just over 20% thinks we're on the right path. Is Biden Omics going to be his ticket to four more years in the White House? We'll discuss it. Don't move. Want even more, Brian?

Trickle-down approach failed the middle class. It failed America. It blew up the deficit. It increased inequity. And it weakened our infrastructure.
It stripped the dignity, pride, and hope out of communities one after another when I ran.
So I came into office determined to change the economic. direction of this country. You know, reversing 40 years of Republican trickle-down economics. that helped the few but hurt the middle class. It's going to take some time.
I'm here to say we have a plan that's turning things around incredibly quickly. And that is binomics, I guess. Spend a lot. Make sure interest rates are high. Keep inflation high, 40-year high overall.
33% of the country don't seem to like it. Twenty percent think we're on the right track, but that's exactly What Joe Biden wants to do, and that's what his people are saying. They say the American people want the low unemployment, which is true. There's 10 million open jobs, which is also, I think, bad. But they say anyone who wants a job can get a job, so go get a job.
E.J. Antoni joins us now. He's an economist with the Heritage Foundation. E.J., welcome back. Brian, thanks for having me again.
So, were you surprised that the administration's rolling out Bidenomics? Oh, absolutely, because if you look at the track record, what is there to brag about? And amazingly, what they're doing is just essentially gaslighting the American people and saying, don't believe your lying eyes, don't believe your empty wallets, and instead just believe what we're saying. It's scary. It's very Orwellian.
To think that they think it's going well. You know, what they're saying is: look at the projects being done, people need to realize the infrastructure that's being built. And I don't know, because he feels as I don't know, actually don't know because the GDP is only growing at 1 percent. He's pointing over and over to job numbers. The job numbers, are they as good as they appear?
No, and there's a couple of key reasons for that. One of which is the fact that the vast majority, like 9 out of 10 jobs that we have seen created under the Biden administration, are simply us just getting back to pre-pandemic levels. And if you look at the pre-pandemic trend, we are still about 2 million, a little more than 2 million jobs below that because labor force participation is down. The employment to population ratio is still depressed.
So we are still far below trend. On top of that, we have double counting the jobs numbers from people having to go out and get a second and even third job because they can't make ends meet from prices going up so much. Yeah, they do say the average. Hourly wage was $11.30, now it's $11.03.
So you might not seem like much, but it's not trending right. Also, with the interest rates high, I guess real estate prices have dropped for the first time in a long time. Right. That's starting to come down really for the first time since the financial crisis and the housing meltdown that we saw more than a decade ago. And again, these aren't really good indicators that we are seeing here.
We are continuing to point towards recession.
So when you look at the criticism on trickle-down economics, the deficits were added, but those deficits were, you could deal with those deficits. How is this President's focus on middle out doing? Oh my goodness. I think that's a good question. You never heard of that, by the way.
Is that a principle in economics? No, no, dear goodness, nothing this president says is a principle in economics. And this whole thing of Trickle Down is a straw man. Find me the person who espouses this theory. Find me where it's been implemented ever.
I mean, what we saw under the Trump administration, for example, which he claims was trickle-down economics, we saw real wages growing for lower income earners. Today, they're falling.
So far from a case where you're giving handouts to the wealthy, the Trump tax cuts disproportionately went to people in lower incomes. You also write E.J. that With regulation being back in the fray all of a sudden instead of being cut, it's costing families between $7,000 and $10,000? Right. And this is one of the things that people really miss because it's just so hard to identify these things.
But you saw under the Trump administration, the biggest impact they probably had was not the tax cuts. It was the reduction in regulation. We saw the exact same thing under Ronald Reagan. The reduction in taxes really didn't match the economic boom that followed. And the reason was the regulation cuts had so much of a role to play as well.
When you cut the corporate tax rate, when the previous administration cut it, what was the result from the businesses coming back home?
Well, initially you always see this reduction in corporate revenue because the rate's lower. But what happens is, as you just said, corporations come home, corporations increase their activity, and as a result of that, the tax base grows more than the reduction in the rate, and you end up with higher revenues.
So that has worked. Do you fear it going up under this administration? Oh, absolutely. I mean, it already has with the Inflation Reduction Act, so-called, right, Inflation Reduction. How many points?
It's difficult to quantify. It's going to depend on the corporations. But for some corporations, it represents a 15 percentage point increase.
So he wanted to They wanted to roll out Bidenomics, like Reaganomics. They wanted it to come out. Here's Joe Biden. No one briefed him that this was their idea. Cut 22.
You guys granted, I didn't. That's I never called a partner and so I was asked the question, why did I get it now? Wait, let's get it straight. First time we're hearing from the Wall Street Journal.
Okay? I don't go around beating my chest Biden on it.
So the press started calling it five now. I no, I like it. It's five. Yeah, it's five because it is my policy. Wha What's going on?
Just embrace it. I mean, what if you're proud of it, embrace it. Why are you wrestling with that?
Well, probably because there's such a hesitancy to embrace it because it's bad policy. And you know that from the bad results. I find it so ironic that he is trashing the last 40 years of economic policy as if it's been somehow horrible. In the last 40 years, we never had inflation like we've had under Joe Biden.
So please explain to me how Bidenomics is so superior to what we have had before. What is the deficit done for these two and a half years under the Biden administration? What's happened to the deficit? It's exploding. If you look at, for example, the current fiscal year, in the first five months, you had a deficit that was larger than the first 11 months of the previous fiscal year.
In other words, Biden has managed to essentially double the deficit in a year's time. What about the reclaiming of COVID funds? Is that going on, or is that just lip service? Unfortunately, in the original bill passed by the House earlier this year, as part of the debt ceiling increase, they were going to claw back all of the unspent COVID money. Instead, now with the agreement they had between the House and the House of House.
Senate in the White House, now only a small portion of that is going to get clawed back, which means the rest is going to be spent, but there's nothing to spend it on, so it's going to be wasted. Aaron Powell, the untapped energy, pun intended, the untapped part of the economy is energy. How are they being affected? Oh, dear goodness. There was actually a report earlier this year that showed if Biden had simply made no changes to Trump's energy policies, we would have several more million barrels a day being produced here at home.
Right? And billions more cubic feet of natural gas. But instead, he has done everything he could to put a boot on the neck of American energy producers. All right. He is Economist with the Heritage Foundation.
You see his columns everywhere. EJ Antonio, great to see you. Brian, thank you for having me back. Capture the magic, which is Bidenomics. Just don't bring it up to him because he doesn't want to be called Bidenomics.
Go figure. Kennedy's next. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead. Hey, welcome back, everybody.
You know, this is pretty interesting because Eric usually rolls in a cliff to kind of. Talk about what we should talk about first. And if I don't talk to him, he'll do it by himself. But with you here, Kennedy, he probably feels as though. We should play defense.
We don't because you're like a wild bronco. Yeah. Oh, I thought I was playing defense. No, no, no. Oh.
Well, we should as a show, we should play defense. I think that's a great idea. Just try to try to hold it. I would like to think that I'm so aggressive and unpredictable that you just have you have no idea what's going to happen.
Well, Eric, how would you explain the fact we didn't bump in with a cut? Am I right in my theory? Because whatever you guys are talking about in there is better than whatever I'm going to roll in. I just caught a glimpse of myself on the monitor. I look like a crazy person.
I walked into your office thinking, I look amazing. I look so classy. And I looked at myself and I'm like, I should be in a home. Right. Not a ho not a home that you have to stay in.
You could still have work release and go visit your family on holidays. Yeah, not not like you shouldn't be sentenced to a home. No, but you you had your hair done, you just put it up right before. I could never do that. If you grew your hair out, you could.
I don't know that. To my the hair and then my back when that grows up. Does it really?
Well, then you could put it up on top of your head. Just have it keep growing up. Just keep growing up. That looks a little wacky.
So we're just looking at the first thing with affirmative action. An Asian man was upset that he couldn't get into college, even though he had the best grades around. And he said you discriminate against Asians.
So he brought it up to the Supreme Court. Supreme Court says in 2023, we no longer need affirmative action.
So no more race-based admissions. Al Sharpton even put a camera in his car today. He's so upset. Chuck Schumer thinks it's bad. I just read Sotomayor's dissent.
If you had to type out something, what would it say? We need school choice. Thank you. Yes, it is very hard for a lot of minority students to get into college because they have been so underserved by being forced into failing schools where they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of success.
So it starts so much further back than college and that admissions process. And I get very upset when people say, oh, it's just white women, rich white women who want school choice. No, actually. Minority children are the ones who are most egregiously underserved by a lack of choice. And if we had more choice, That means competition.
That means better schools.
So kids from every community all across the country would have a much better foundation that their parents could be a part of and select. And then by the time they got to college, they would be in a far better place. There's school of choice in Arizona, the school coast in Oklahoma, the school choice in Iowa, the school choice in Florida, Texas.
So, I mean, there's a lot of places just off the top of my head, they're ahead of us a little bit. Yeah, Arizona. Did I say Arizona? Yes, Arizona.
So a lot of people are ahead of us. The other thing is, too, is it's wrong to say I have too many Asians in my school. You can't come in.
Well, and it's Asian women are the most discriminated against of all races. And it's it's really I mean, it's pretty awful. Like, if you we have been raised to think that the university university system, particularly in our country, is a meritocracy. That if you work hard and you check all the boxes and you do community service, you get great grades, you do well in the SAT, then you are writing your own ticket. But I have heard stories of so many kids who cannot get into not just Ivy League schools, but you know, really good state schools because of race.
Right. Because I know it's a, for example, if you are. If you are white, And you're pointing to Harvard. You better be really white. Or I should probably rephrase that.
Your grades had to be one hundred and eleven, and you have to be a George Bush's relative in some way to get in. When if we level the playing field, do you think America, having said what you said, America will pick you on the basis of your intellect and accomplishments? Or do you think that people will go out of their way? These admissions, no one's telling Harvard what to do. They're not mandating what to do.
Doesn't mean that Harvard can't say. I guess no, it does mean they cannot say, I need 100 blacks, 100 Asians, 100 American Indians, 100 Filipinos. They can't say that anymore. Yeah, so we have to. Could be an unsaid band-aid.
It it it is such an antiquated education system that we have in this country. We shouldn't be surprised. in the disparity of outcomes. But it starts so much further back than college.
So you can't be surprised at this, but also race-based admissions aren't necessarily the fix. That's not fair either. That's not making the entire system better. And Kenny, have you thought about this? Remember those celebrities who were getting their kids to school playing phony sports?
And I listened to some black students on campus, and they said, now you know how we feel. Because they would see a celebrity on campus.
Some really have 105 averages and almost a near-perfect SAT, but they looked at it and said, you're only here because you're famous, or we know who your dad or your mom is. And they said a lot of these African Americans do have great grades. And people go, You're only here because you're a minority. Yeah, that's also creates another form of soft bigotry. Yes.
Southwark. We're not doing it right. Whatever we're doing, like I look at this, but obviously I look at it from a limited government perspective. And wherever things are the most screwed up, that's where you find the most government. Right.
Stop trying to help me. If that's possible. Can we talk about something refreshing, exhilarating? Summer cocktails? Mm that's second.
I'm thinking a hunter biden. Oh, yeah. Right. Please. Hit me with your best shot.
Right, Pat Benatar.
So we noticed that right now Hunter got his red backpack and he went in to be deposed. Because Johnny Paul, my Mac Isaacs. Attorney wants to talk to him about a defamation lawsuit, and he's going to countersue back on a laptop. He might or might not be his. I love that his attorneys are still sticking with.
Yeah, it might not be his. Really? While you're showing me that? Who put all those wean pics on there? The Russians?
Where'd they get them? Dossier? That's actually right. Right. Randy photographer.
Absolutely.
So I I want you to hear Merrick Carlin cut three. mister Weiss, who was appointed by President Trump as the U.S. Attorney in Delaware and assigned this matter during the previous administration, would be permitted to continue his investigation and to make a decision to prosecute. any way in which he wanted to. Can you explain the rationale for not appointing a special counsel?
I'm just curious. Mr. Weiss had, in fact, more authority than a special counsel would have had. The only problem with that statement is none of it's true. None of it's true.
Not even a little. Right. And also, he is just assuming that no one is going to challenge him on that statement.
So if David Weiss had more power than special counsel, why did he make several requests to be named special counsel? Right. And reassigned in that role.
So, how do you do this? We're not going to get the AG and David Weiss in the same room. I would like to see them in the same room. And I would like to see them with Gary Shapley in the same room. And I would like.
All of them to answer questions and provide documentation because. If if Hunter Biden were a legitimate person, why would you need someone to engineer a letter from fifty one former intelligence officials? On his behalf, running defense in order to get the president elected. If there was nothing there, if he's just sort of a cracked-out family member, they knew what was on there. They knew it was real.
And All of this that has followed from that. Just smacks of corruption and cronyism, and it's not the kind of government that. We were set up to have. Right. I don't know if you saw me interview us us interview James Comer today.
I was sleeping because my daughter had her graduation party, and I was up till two in the morning cleaning, but I really meant to. How was it? I had one great question. It was three hours. I mean, you're big.
So I had one great question. I just said: look. It turns out, according to Shapley. The The laptop was authenticated in October of 2019.
Now, we know what happened in 2020 when Rudy Giuliani got it and the New York Post got it, and it got suppressed. Did we guess who was president then? Thomas Jefferson. Almost. Donald Trump and the William Barr.
Was the Attorney General. And I'm just wondering. Did William Barr get briefed from The FBI just saying, Hey guys, we got this laptop. A lot of s crazy stuff is on here. Joe Biden's like Why would Christopher Wray not tell William Barr?
And if William Barr found out that the laptop is real and it shows maybe the former Vice President is dealing, using an influence to change policy and might be running for president again, I think that might be of interest. We have not heard. From the pro, we know President Trump wouldn't have kept quiet if he knew that. Yes. Right?
I don't think he knew that. I think they kept a lot from him. Those deep staters who had been in successive administrations. They have their own charge. They just stopped this whole thing and didn't even tell the guy in charge.
I understand that Merrick Garland might go, Yeah, I'm not saying anything. But for William Barr not to get word, that is a smashed system. Christopher Ray, appointed by Donald Trump, and it was pointed out to me: well, you don't understand how much they hated Trump. This is a Trump problem. They said, whatever we have to do to make sure Trump is not president.
And I think that. And it's crazy to think that we'd accept that. Of course, it's crazy, but that's the problem with what is dubbed the deep state: you have technocrats who. who feel like they know better than voters. And it is not only okay for them, it is their moral responsibility.
To change the outcome of elections when they feel They know which candidate would better serve the country. Right. That's not the way democracy works, according to reports. Do you have those reports? Yes.
I'm going to go put them in front of an audio tape later at my golf club and claim that they are Iran battle plans, if you don't mind. These are just newspaper clippings.
So James Comer Today, on Fox and Friends, says that this isn't about 1.5 million that. Hunter Biden had it's not even 0.7.8.3 million that Shapley says. Listen to this, cut 10. If you look at all the money that the Bidens took in, I mean, that's going to exceed $20 million. The way they set these up in these shell companies, these LLCs, they were deducting basic living expenses as business write-offs when there was no business.
There was no legitimate business. For example, OWASCO was supposedly Hunter Biden's law firm account, but he didn't practice law. But that was an LLC for his law firm. That's where he wired money. There's suspicious activity reports where he wired to escort services.
He paid his sex club dues in California. And he was paying for the pornography site, which is what triggered the IRS investigation to begin with. It was an audit not of Hunter Biden, but of a pornography site. But by the way, for the record, they say it was an audit of an amateur pornography site. I'm like, they are a pornography.
You can write off. Right. Yeah, amateur pornography. They were still in school. They don't want to ruin their eligibility.
So, you know, just like, these are amateurs. Just going to warn you: when we open up this investigation, don't expect first-class porn. We have to petition the NCAA for a couple more years of eligibility. They should be able to, according to reports.
So Homer says, can you imagine that? Uh can you imagine 20 million I mean, where is this money? How dare you take this money and not pay any taxes? How dare your father get up and tell everyone pay a fair share of these riches? Is that too much?
Yeah, 8%. This guy's paying 0%. Is that an acronym for something? No, like a doorknob. Oh.
Yeah. Hunter Biden. He's just, he's, I would say he's dumb as a box of hair, but you know, for a cracked-out ding-dong, he really had a great little scam going. He did. What a grift.
And I said this yesterday on outnumbered. His dad becoming president is the worst thing that's ever happened to him because then the presidential microscope is not kind, and he can't pull his shenanigans like he could when his dad was at the Naval Observatory. Evidently. We don't know what was up, but we know the dad never met with his business partners, met with his business partners. Rob Walker said they met at the Four Seasons.
He was specific. We know Bobolinski met at the Beverly Hilton. He was very specific. They said there's 10 different incidents when he was there. They could tell you what exactly happened.
Now, if you're a Devin Archer, you're going to jail anyway. Oh, yeah. So why not just come out and say, yeah, I'm not asking him, but just come out. We did a deal, and Joe Biden was part of it. Can you do those interviews?
Can we get to that? They've also never refuted Tony Bobolensky. They don't even bring him up. Has anyone asked President Trump, do you know who Tony Bobolinski is? You mean President Biden?
Oh, sorry. President Biden. Yeah. By the way, you hear this thing about Devin Archer? Do you know the link?
There n was his wife working in the White House? This is the craziest thing ever. When we come back. Oh, I love a cliffhanger. Right, when we come back.
Devon Archer's Link. To Donald Trump. When we come back. It's Brian Killmeade. Radio that makes you think.
This is the Brian Kill Me Show.
Well, guess what? Blessed Peter. Guy driving a truck hit a bu anyway, knocked down off. Old bridge. The whole block four lanes of the highway.
Today, with the help of the Inflation Reduction Act, A new plant is being built. Three quarters of U.S. industry's Goomork. consec consecrated. I'm assuming.
consecrated. I'm thinking I didn't go to mass. What is that? What the hell does that mean? God save the queen, man.
What does that mean?
So he's saying because the infrastructure bill, when a truck erroneously takes out a bridge, we can rebuild it?
Okay.
Um We couldn't have done that before. We had to have $6 trillion to do that. All right. So, your thoughts about him doing that four times a week? I mean, let's just say minimum when you're trying to run for president four times a week.
He struggled. He doesn't even know the name of his Biden Bidenomics was supposed to be the theme. Only thing is question. Jill. By the way, where is she?
Very good, Brian. Thank you. Where is she? I mean, that guy should never be. She's probably starting the sequel of Stella Gottergrooveback.
Right. By the way, is that a good movie? Because I saw it. I thought it was adorable. Yeah.
What happened? She had tragedy and then she got a groove back? Yeah, with a younger dude, man. Like on vacation. She found.
So did the guy die? Did her original husband die? I don't remember that part. I just remember her getting all sessy with a young fella. Little cubby, they call it.
What was the turning point in the show? Uh, probably when they boned.
Okay.
That's not I don't think that's You asked. But you were on it.
So, you want me to tell you about Devin Archer? Yes. Oh, the Devin Archer cliffhanger. I almost forgot.
So, Devin Archer's in that picture with the Bidens, but of course, they didn't talk about business in the golf. They're playing golf, right? Of course, they never talk about business. I know nothing about my son's overseas business operations except for when I golf with him for seven hours.
So, Devin Archer. When Donald Trump decides he's going to cheat on Ivanka, With Marla Maples. They had to get Marla Maples out of there.
So she liked to play tennis.
So they sent her to the tennis club, and guess who she played with? Devin Archer. Because Devin Archer could. Marlow Maples did? Yes.
So she's playing tennis with, he's within the Trump circle. They're playing at one of the Trump clubs playing tennis, Marlon Maples and Devin Archer. Little would they know, he would years later meet Hunter Biden in college or something, end up going into business with him. Wow.
And then goes to prison. Right. Circle of life. And how about the I'm not sure that circle of life really works here, but I know what you mean. It means but uh and what about the guy that was born into politics, lived through different administrations and powerful offspring of Influential people and then goes to prison.
That's a circle. Seems like a Pentagon. You mentioned five different points when making like points on the circle. Right. So, and the other thing would be: you're either dead, disappeared, the Chinese guy that they're dealing with that they're WhatsApp messaging.
Henry Zhao, where is he? Where is he? And also there's the dung guy. Yeah. D-O-N-G, is that the same one?
Because there's Z and there's Dong. Yeah, that's absolutely what I've said every day since high school. Exactly. But for this case, they're gone. Right?
Sayonara, friends. What about the tone in that message? That's not the way we talk to him now. Certainly not. Kenny, when can we see you again?
