[laughing]. come on! i am not measuring up against him again. "hannity" is next. >> sean: welcome to "hannity." a fox news alert. the house voted to impeach
6:01 pm
homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas in the border disaster. one article accuses him of refusing to comply with federal migration laws. mayorkas claimed the system has been broken for years ask repeating the lie they need congress to fix it. no, they don't. take a look. >> do you bear responsibility for what is happening at the border, what the president called a crisis? >> it's a crisis. we don't bear responsibility for a broken system. we are doing a tremendous amount within that system. congress is the only one who can fix it. >> sean: joe biden would have to unrescind all the trump policies that worked. joe biden repeated the same
6:02 pm
line. take a look. >> [inaudible]. >> sean: joe, you have the power. with a stroke of a pen you rescinded the trump policies that were work. you could put them back in place. if the system has been broken for so long, we have to ask ourselves: why did joe biden and the biden administration lie to the country. all of you for 3 years. how many times did they tell you that the border was secure and the border was closed? a refresher. >> it sounds like a crisis. >> well, looks it's way down now. we have gotten control. >> the border is closed. >> nor could i have been clearer
6:03 pm
and continue to be. the border is closed. >> the united states will continue to enforce our laws and secure our bordery. >> we are making the border more secure. >> we a secure border. that's a priority for any nation including ours and our administration. >> we agree that the border is secure? >> sean: the border is closed and secure they told us for 3 years. more on that in a moment. the polls just closed. the special election to replace george santos in new york. first tonight we have a reporter live from washington. what is the latest this? >> this will be forever marked
6:04 pm
in history as the day that secretary alejandro mayorkas becomes only the second cabinet secretary ever to be impeached by the house. it happened by a hair. the vote came down to one person steve scalise. the same 3 republicans who voted no last week voted no again this week. that was mike gallagher, ken buck and tom mcclintock. president trump wrote history won't look kindly at house republicans. next the prosecutors in this impeachment hearings, schumer
6:05 pm
has to take this up until. senators will be sworn as jurors and schumer has different options. he could go straight to trial and do that entire thing. he will could punt this to a special committee chosen by him and mitch mcconnell. or he can file a motion to dismiss this and that only needs a simple majority. you mentioned the special election. in new york city it was critical for republicans to move on this impeachment quickly and do it tonight before the polls closeed in new york. this is george santos's seat. if that were to flip to democrats, that would mean an even slimmer majority for speaker johnson and the numbers more of a problem.
6:06 pm
>> sean: we will watch that. a little trivia. my gold district when i lived i new york. i can't vote there anymore. we will check in with tim scott and anothers. biden's disastrous start to the month. it got worse today. tony bobulinski delivered bombshell testimony to lawmakers on the hand about the bind impeachment inter. -- inquiry. tony bobulinski said joe was involved in hunter's shady dealings. he denied in 2020 as a candidate and denied it as president. joe is a liar. he lied to you over and over again. we should refresh your memory.
6:07 pm
>> how many times have you spoken to your son about overseas business dealings? >> never. i never discussed anything to do with their businesses accident period. what i will do is the same thing we did in our administration. a wall between personal and private and the government. >> do you stand by your statement you did not discuss any of your son's overseas business dealing? >> i stand by that statement. >> sean: i stand by that lie. according to tony bobulinski they are complete lies. he told lawmakers in his opening statement through a chinese communist party compromised the
6:08 pm
obama and biden white house. enabled it despite a constitutional obligation to shut it down. it was not just an allegation connected to china that is raising the alarm. tony bobulinski told lawmakers that joe's immediate family members took in tens of million dollars from other country including russia, ukraine, roam -- romania and tony bobulinski said the biden family business but joe biden, period. if this is true these allegations are the most damning yet. john dean said we have a cancer within or close to the presidency. it's growing daily and it's a disaster for team biden. joe may face more problems.
6:09 pm
according to a new report breaking today, house republicans are in discussions with special counsel robert hur about testing before the house judiciary committee. yesterday house republicans requested any recordings and transcripts related to biden's interview with the special counsel where robert hur said joe biden could not remember when he was vice-president and in 2009 was i still the vice-president? nor could he remember when the death of his son was. the white house is considering the possibility of releasing the transcripts. great, but if there is any video or audio recordings we would like to hear that as well. robert hur recommended no
6:10 pm
charges citing biden's low cognitive ability. people think biden got off easy because he is the president. 53% think he received special treatments and 29% of democrats. on the question of the age his numbers are worse. 78% of the american people think that joe biden is too old to serve again. 71% of all democrats. biden hasn't had a blunder-free public event in months. suffered a bizarre moment yesterday with the king of jordan where he was lost trying to find out where he was supposed to stand. you would not believe that if you listen to democratic hacks
6:11 pm
that surround him. here's what karine-jean pierre said. might be my favorite quote of hers of all time. >> i will quote a little bit of what the first lady said well just a couple of days ago. president biden does more this one hour than most people do in a day. i have known in president since 2009. he is not just my boss but also a mentor to me. i spend countless hours with him in the oval office and on the road. he is sharp and on top of things. >> sean: if she believes that lie that he gets more done in an hour than most people get done in a day, that would mean she is delusional and has no business being around any president.
6:12 pm
also breaking tonight. according to the doj hunter biden's phone had pictures of the cocaine and drug equipment. maybe it's time to reopen the cocaine. who brought the bag of cocaine into the biden white house? they found no suspects after a long, 10-day investigation. on top of the that they believed they found residsual cocaine on hunter's gun or holster. we have the 3 lawmakers leading the biden impeachment committee.
6:13 pm
tony bobulinski, what did you learn today? >> well, we learned a lot. tony bobulinski handled himself very well. i have never seen democrats or anyone act worse in a deposition than they did. the democrats could not handle the truth. that's what tony bobulinski delivered today: the truth. he talked about joe's involvement and the times he talked to joe biden. he mentioned that joe biden thanked him for what he was doing. joe biden knew what tony bobulinski was doing. every american would be concerned if they understand what the cefc was doing. everything that we have
6:14 pm
bipartisan agreement on in congress to forbid china from doing. cefc was trying to acquire the service of bidens to get into our market. tony bobulinski is the second person to testify that joe biden was the brand. >> sean: didn't he talk about million dollars and mentioned these other countries? and joe's involvement. he was directly involved in all of this? never once spoke to his son or brother? is that all true? >> well, we are well over $20 million that the bidens have taken. over $8 million from china. we found out today it was because of joe biden. they had no use in hunter biden. they had no use in jill biden. they were paying for joe biden
6:15 pm
the brand. tony bobulinski did a great job explaining that. the american people will be interested to read the transcripts. >> sean: jim jordan, your take on the developments today. i would like to know. your colleague comer demanded the doj turn over joe biden's classified documents. i would like the records of all of those pseudonym email accounts and every single email he sent and look at joe biden's bank records. any chance we will get all of this to put this whole thing together? >> what we want now is the information robert hur has. the white house and the justice department can't hide behind the fact it's an on-going investigation. the investigation is over. we want that information. we want the video footage and
6:16 pm
all of that information as we go about doing our work. to the other point, this is called the money, the business, the brand. that's what was going on with the biden family. the white house story changed so many times. first i never spoke to hurricane sallied. -- hunter biden and then hunter biden said my father was not financially involved. the best one when joe biden shows up at 4 season restaurants, hunter biden. joe biden givers a presentation and leave and $3 million is wider to biden accounts. the money, the business, the brand and tony bobulinski confirmed that today in his
6:17 pm
system. >> sean: the money, the business, the brand. tony bobulinski you had rob walker a former business associate of hunter's. sought to create a joint venture at 4 seasons in washington. is that confirmed? jim jordan do you find them to be credible witnesses for your case? >> well, that luncheon. tony bobulinski was not there but rob walker was. walker would not even tell us that the big guy was joe biden. tony bobulinski confirmed that the big guy on the email to walker and to hunter biden, the big guy was in fact joe biden. tony bobulinski's story hasn't changed. the white house story change and the justice department story change. tony bobulinski has not
6:18 pm
waivered. he presented the facts to the committee. just as importantly to the country. >> sean: congressman smith, let's talk to you about tony bobulinski and the allegations that he made and the things he testified to today. he worked with hunter biden to create the joint venture with the chinese energy people and met with joe biden in 2017 and joe biden enabled his son hunter to sell access to the united states to our most dangerous adversaries, chinese communist party, russia and more. and it was clear joe biden was the brand sold by the biden family. what is your reaction to that testimony? >> sean, that's right. today tony bobulinski confirmed what the 2 irs whistleblowers said months ago.
6:19 pm
they said that joe biden is the brand and the family business is selling the brand across the country to all of these foreign entities like china and russia. what is interesting today, tony bobulinski said that he named the time, the location, where he sat down with joe biden for 45 minutes to talk about the relationship with the chinese companies and government. that was 3 years before joe biden stood up before the american people in a debate and said that his son was not involved with any chinese company. >> sean: the same question for all three of you. we are talking about the president of the united states. he may have taken official actions as vice-president that benefitted his family. joe biden not only lying to the american people but enriching
6:20 pm
his family by doing deals with our biggest geo-political foes. where does this end? an impeachment inquire? what possible charges against joe? >> obstruction and money laundering and bribery. we will see what joe biden and hunter biden bring forward. there is an effort to cover this up. we would have never known about the cover-up if not for the whistleblowers. >> sean: you said over $20 million. what crimes do you see, james comer? >> joe biden to me looks like he violated the foreign corrupt practices act. that defines what constitutes
6:21 pm
a bribe. while he was vice-president, the gifts his son and brother received, meet the definition of bribery. jim jordan mentioned the obvious with the 6 different banks. there was money laundering and tax fraud and wire fraud. with the president's brother there is securities fraud. it's a long list. jordan said we will be getting the two final depositions together with the biden family numbers. then we will proceed from there. >> sean: might you -- are you thinking about maybe sending a subpoena to joe biden? >> we will see where everything leads. he is a key player obviously. we learned from some of the previous interviews that there may be some more suspicious
6:22 pm
activity. and maybe another account that was unknown. we are asking for information on that and issuing subpoenasubpoe. >> sean: what are you looking at? >> we have witnesses who said that. the irs whistleblowers have evidence of this. joe biden will go down as the most corrupt and comp myromised president in our left time. >> sean: will joe biden be impeached? jim jordan? >> we have to see where our colleagues are. the case is compyming. -- compelling. >> i agree with jim jordan. >> i am with jim and jamie.
6:23 pm
>> sean: 3 for 3. when we come back joe biden using smear tactics to get more money from ukraine. reaction from senator tim scott and his reaction to the impeachment of alejandro mayorkas straight ahead. the o. but when it comes to caring for his teeth he's let his own maintenance take a back seat. well maybe it's time to shift gears on that. because aspen dental has the latest technology and equipment. with a staff that goes out of their way to provide exceptional care. plus free exams and x-rays for new patients without insurance and 20% off treatment plans. making it easier to get started with quality care. it's one more way aspen dental is in your corner.

>> ♪ ♪ >> sean: earlier today joe biden delivered another divisive speech lecturing republicans telling them to support the ludicrous foreign aid bill that passed the senate overnight. >> house republicans, you have to decide. are you going to stand up for freedom or are you going to side
6:28 pm
with terror and tyranny? are you going to stand with ukraine or with putin? stand with america or trump? republicans and democrats in the senate came together to send the message of unity in the world. time for the house republicans to do the same thing. pass this bill immediately! stand for decency and democracy and stands up to a leader hell bent on weakening american security. >> sean: he said you have to reject trump's dangerous un-american pro-putin stance on ukraine. similar comments by utah senator mitt romney. take a look. >> if we fail to help ukraine, we will be known not as our fathers and mothers were, the greatest generation. but as the worst generation.
6:29 pm
the shock jocks have riled up many in my party. if your position is being cleared by vladimir putin, it's time to reconsider your position. >> sean: nikki haley is saying the same thing. that donald trump is siding with the thug vladimir putin. let me be clear. we know putin is a thug, murdering dictator. no question about it. right now what republicans are saying with this vote is we are facing the biggest national security threat our country faced in the modern era. it's not putin. our biggest security threat is joe biden's wide open borders in this country with 10 millions unvetted joe biden illegal immigrants poured over. none with a background check or health check. many are roaming free across the
6:30 pm
country. their background? nobody knows. fbi are warning congress about an invasion of military age men. and illegal immigrants are now taking advantage of the canadian immigration laws and open borders to the north. they are sneaking across into the u.s. from the northern border. from iran, syria, egypt, afghanistan, russia and china. why are we letting them in? republicans need to secure the border and do that first. then they need a budget deal. then we can talk about aid to israel which we should provide and talk about ukraine which already has 75-billion dollars. that's what we have given in aid to ukraine. with reaction south carolina senator tim scott.
6:31 pm
the news on mayorkas and his impeachment. with a left wing radical democratic party he probably won't be convicted. he is not enforcing our nation's laws and deserved it. >> 1,000% agree. the courage of the house republicans should be applauded. the boast way to get rid of mayorkas is to fire joe biden. our country has 10 million illegal immigrants invasion. joe biden broke our southern border. joe biden can fix. the one thing we can see in common. when donald trump was our president, there was no invasion of crab. -- ukraine. our southern border was closed. before donald trump obama
6:32 pm
invasion in ukraine. what is the one common denominator for a safer world and stronger america and closed southern border and less crime on the streets of america: a long american president. it's time for us to realize we are better off with trump. south carolina will deliver a 25 point win for donald trump. it's time for us to get to joe biden. >> sean: even mitt romney joining joe biden to reject donald trump's pro-putin stance on ukraine. that's not donald trump's position.
6:33 pm
even nikki haley has joined in as well. warning trump that this will be mean more war and slammed donald trump -- nikki haley said this -- siding with the thug vladimir putin. wow, if securing our borders is more important for national security and believe that should be funded first, that makes you a putin puppet? is that the new definition? that's bull! >> that's hog wash. it's called putting america first. america can't be the city on the hill if we don't have borders. our borders need a wall. a physical impediment to slow down and stop illegal immigrants from walking across our southern border. you hit the nail on the head, sean. military age men account for the vast majority of the folks coming across our border. thousands of chinese nationals have been crossing our border.
6:34 pm
what has this administration done? blamed somebody beside one person in america today. he would rather have the issue than solve the problem. that's why we need a new president. secondly, without any question, the remain in mexico worked. title 42 worked. having an asylum policy, it worked. having a president with the backbone to stand up to dictates and murderers like putin. we should ask ourselves: why is that the case? a strong american president makes a weak putin. a weak american president makes
6:35 pm
a strong putin. this story has been playing out for darn near 8 years. 4 before president trump and 4 after president trump. you add that to the border and crime in the streets of america. that's why african-americans and hispanics and millennials are turning to the gop with the rest of our country. we are sick and tired of being sicked and tired. >> sean: for joe biden to say that trump and the republicans policies, if you don't fund ukraine, we have already given them 75 billion dollars. republicans are standing firm. if they fund ukraine they give up any hope of securing that border. mitt romney and nikki haley -- i was shocked by her comments. >> i agree. >> sean: are supporting the thug punt. why? because they want the border secured first and would like
6:36 pm
a budget finished. we can't live with record high budget deficits. 34 trillion dollars in debt going to our children. we can't survive as a country doing that. >> you're absolutely right. 135-plus billion dollars securing ukraine's borders but won't secure our border. we will use the israeli tragedy to fund ukraine. fix our border, joe biden. >> sean: fix the border first. then we will can discuss the other things. get your budget under control first. see how much money we have left. senator, if you get a call from donald trump and asks to you be his vice-president what would you say?
6:37 pm

6:45 pm
are dealt. that hand is such that a lot of states have voting weeks on end. i don't like it. i think it lends itself to integrity issues. the republicans and conservatives across the country have been reluctant to vote early and voting by mail. i think they better overcome that resistance or they will start out election night down 400,000 votes. the rnc said bank your vote. i support that. they have not seemed to have dealt with the issue of legal ballot harvesting. i am surprised it's legal but it is. if republicans don't surpass the efforts of democrats in swing states that's a vulnerability that could sway an election. that could be difference.
6:46 pm
will that be a top priority? >> absolutely, sean. we have to be 6 or 7 steps ahead of democrats. we have to beat them at this game. we thought as republicans we could play the game. that isn't the case anymore as you explained. we have to deal with what we have right now. the rnc should have one goal and one focus: ensuring that the leader of the republican party donald trump is elected as the 47th president of the united states and we are able to save this country. any person walk into doors of the rnc with any other goal in mind would be shown the door if i were elected to this position as co-chair of the rnc. we have 9.5 months. we have to ensure that every single penny raised goes to voter registration, legal
