Former Acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell and Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., join 'Hannity' to discuss
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Eric Swalwell, an
exposed report revealed his ties
to a chinese spy named Christine
Fang.
According to the Axios report,
Fang had a relationship with at
least two mayors.
The office declined to comment.
Democrats. They refuse to hold
Swalwell accountable for his
blatant rapid lies
republican, congressman, Matt,
Gaetz,
very appropriate title,
also former director of
national intelligence, who did a
great job, giving truth and
transparency to all things. In
these probes we have had over
the years,
Matt well start with you.
He is like the biggest phony
hypocrite right there right
there with the congenital liar
Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler,
pretty amazing
yeah. If we are going to
start throwing people off the
intelligence committee, I would
love to add Adam Schiffs name
to the list.
Isnt it something Sean that
when Democrats are targeted,
they get a defensive briefing,
but when republicans are they
get prosecution and jail
sentences?
Now we find ourselves with Eric
Swalwell saying that the matter
of whether or not he slept with
this person is one of national
security.
It is classified.
You know that Bill Clinton is
kicking himself for not thinking
of this right.
If this is an explanation, I
guess others could have used it
now. I dont want the FBI or
Congress to be the bedroom
police and I dont even blame
Eric Swalwell for being
targeted.
I blame him because he knows
better.
He knows that China is the major
threat in the 21st century.
They are a threat to our people
and our workers,
and instead he distracted our
country for years on this
nonsense. Russia, hoax arguing
that the president was an agent
of the russian government when
he in fact had his own campaign
infiltrated by an agent of the
chinese government,
its the double standards from
the FBI and its the hypocrisy
from the left that we are so
used to seeing and we are sick
of it
all right Rick. So
we all believe that Russia is a
hostile regime, but a far bigger
threat. All my intelligence
sources tell me by a long shot.
Is China
and MIKE Pompeos comments were
pretty alarming as well,
and I look at this and then I
look at the comments he was
making publicly about Russia
Et Cetera.
I am like what a hypocrite
look. I think its even worse
than just hypocrisy.
We are accustomed to hypocrisy
in Washington, D, dot c,
but you said it right, Sean
that look. Russia is a problem,
but China is a crisis and we
have known that it has been a
crisis for a very long time.
I think there needs to be a gang
of intelligent group
investigations. Certainly an
acting chairman, Marco Rubio
should immediately call the
intelligence committee. Together
they should get a confidential
classified briefing on what Eric
Swalwell New and how much did he
give away
because the reality is he spent
years downplaying the China
threat and overhyping the
russian threat.
This is playing exactly into
what the Chinese want people to
do.
They want to be under the radar.
Eric Swalwell did exactly what
the Chinese wanted.
We need to figure out. Are there
others,
and I can tell you without
giving away too much
intelligence. This is the tip of
the iceberg. When it comes to the
leverage that China is putting
on our politicians,
there are many, many more
one at the bidens be
up there in that category.
Theres, a variety of mayors,
governors senior people,
look the other thing that weve
got to Sean Wool Wool wool:
there is a whole bunch on and
there is a whole bunch on and
more should be coming out.
They have all received defensive,
brief, edens and theres a lot
more to it.
Did I see Matt Gaetz
blushing there?
That would be impossible.
Its very important to know
what Pelosi knew
everyone in Washington knows
that Eric is her fair, haired boy
boy.
He said the leadership knew
he said. Leadership knew about.
