presidential perspective. is there any possibility the president would end it hurting himself? >> i just said no. i just answered. go ahead. >> that was in july. no chance that joe biden will ever pardon his son. she may at some point soon wish to amend her commence. i wonder if she will have to read them from the briefing book >> todd: a fox news alert, hunter biden facing nine new criminal charges for allegedly

not paying taxes for a four-year period while dishing out huge bucks for a party lifestyle. he could spend up to 17 years in prison and he faces 25 years in the federal gun case. you're watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> carley: i'm carley shimkus. "new york post" says wild child, drugs, escorts and exotic cars while dodging taxes. editorial board said it was a scheme not to pay uncle sam but to give chastity at the gentlemen's club. the evidence is clear the justice department was burying it as favor to joe biden. >> todd: alexandria hoff will

break it down. alex. >> his attorney sees it differently. the president's son has been indicted on 19tax-related charges, that were brought by special counsel yesterday. the defendant spent this money on drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotel, rental property, exotic cars, everything but his taxes. everything broken down, 1.6 million in atm withdrawals, money to women and adult entertainment and so on. david axelrod weighed in. this will further ignite house republicans. i think president trump has urged them to do it and has an

ally in new house speaker mike johnson. this will be a log on the fire, the fire may not reach the door of the white house, but republicans will try to depict it as much. >> alexandria: yesterday does backup what the whistleblowers testified to. shapley and ziegler placed their careers on the line to blow the whistle on this conduct and politicization in the hunter biden investigation, every american should applaud these men. hunter biden has agreed to testify this week, house republicans say he must be interviewed privately first. >> carley: and there is that impeachment inquiry next week, we'll see what happens there. thank you, live in washington,

d.c. fox news contributor miranda devine has a book out on his laptop, here is how she reacted yesterday. >> the indictment is vindication of everything we have been reporting for three years, vindication of james comer and fellow republicans in the house and the investigation they have been doing this year and especially vin dicasion of irs whistleblowers, gary shapley and zie ziegler and this indictment is an indictment of david weiss, even though his name is on this because that sweetheart plea deal he tried to sweep past the american people would have given hunter immunity was such a disgrace when you look at the depth and breadth of the crimes alleged here.

hunter biden is accused not just of failing to pay taxes, but of trying to rip off the tax office. >> todd: that final point is such an important point, what changed? david weiss had access to this information for years, tried to stifle it and wasn't but for the two whistleblowers, we may not have the situation we have now, indictment on real serious charges. >> carley: totally and comer gave the whistleblowers total credit saying it changed the course of history. this is the president's family, i don't think this is an overstatement. they put their jobs and reputation, livelihood on the line to tell the truth, that is the whistleblower element. the david weiss thing does confuse me, though, he was willing to enter this plea deal,

could it be to help the president and then he got caught, the judge said this sounds fishy, we'll go ahead with nine charges. david weiss highlighted hunter biden used a business line of credit to make payments to a porn site, one fifth of all the business line of credit for that expenditure. some personal problems there, to say the least. the judge assigned to the case is a trump appointee, as well. >> todd: we have so many questions, we'll ask an attorney who will join us on his take of this major story 20 minutes from now. do not miss it. >> carley: and what itten moos for president biden and biden family business. the president is heading to hollywood and will rub shoulders with celebs and donors. an ex-democrat is here to tell

saturday. slight risk over oklahoma and texas and moving across the mississippi and tennessee river tomorrow, hail, damaging wind and tornados. then watch this area of low pressure develop and move up toward the east, we'll see coastal low bringing potential for interior section snow and coastal rain. we could see snow across the great lakes after record-setting warmth. heavy rain in the forecast, flash flooding is a concern for the i-95 corridor, areas hit hard by rain. definitely prepare for that and interior sections could see good snow. here is what we're looking at tomorrow, snow across great lakes and upper midwest and area of low pressure develop as it moves toward east coast starting off as rain and on the backside we're going to see significant snow for parts of the

appalachian and interior sections. i wish we were getting a little bit of snow, we are sick of the rain. yeah, that is something that will delay travel. >> carley: still chance for a white christmas. >> janice: probably a better chance. for new york, i don't think we're going to have a white christmas. >> todd: stay inside this weekend and watch christmas movies. >> janice: or christmas specials on fox nation, todd piro. >> carley: fox nation and fox weather. thank you. president biden is stopping by las vegas today pledging billionings on a rail project connecting sin city to l.a. and then to los angeles to rub elbows with hollywood eshg lite, stephen spielberg and barbara

well. i had to go get two jobs just to help us make ends meet. we don't live above our means, we know how to budget, however, with bidenomics it is unreal. going to the grocery store is a chore, creative accounting needs to go into effect in my household. >> carley: this is money over messaging, biden campaign needs the money and will take a hit on messaging. on so many fronts, democrats supposed to be the party of the working class and the president is spending the weekend at hicelebrity weekend. do you have $930,000 to party with the president? >> absolutely not. the message, it is all about optics. what i see is with us suffering

let them eat cake and that is what comes to mind. it is unfortunate and heartbreaking and i appreciate he is coming to las vegas. we just had a mass shooting at our university, i appreciate him coming. what i see and hear, i feel sorry for you and by the way, i'm running for president and by the way, trying to like we're ignorant and don't understand what the world politics look like or what america has come to. this is not the america that i signed up defend and with our disabilities, it is like, mr. president, what are you doing for our veterans and homeless veterans and veterans not making ends meet. it is heartbreaking. >> carley: the president may be going to las vegas for a good reason. nevada backed presidents in four consecutive elections, but only by two points in 2020.

>> carley: smoke filling the air near israel's border with gaza. >> todd: greg palkot live with the latest. greg. >> greg: todd and carley, we're into month three of the israel-hamas war and from our vantage point here a mile from the gaza strip, we can tell you, it is intensifying. we saw hamas fired rockets right over our location and israeli iron dome seemed to have knocked them out of the sky. israel reporting 450 hamas targets hit in the last tw24 hours, by air, by sea, in the night, artillery aimed at the

terrorists. most treacherous, massive israeli ground operation, especially in southern gaza where hamas stronghold is believed to be. there is house-to-house-to-house fighting. two more soldiers killed, bringing casualties to 92 soldiers. of course civilians in gaza taking a battering, as well. one-time safe areas to which they fled being hit. hamas run health ministry total put the death toll over 16,000. more raid being promised by israel and the united states. todd and carley, secretary of state blinken recently said there is no deadline for israel to finish the operation here, but this is important, he expects major fighting to be finished within a month, that means early january. also waiting 130 plus hostages inside the gaza strip, including

it is believed eight americans. a lot of people watching. >> todd: extremely complicated. thank you. jewish people finished celebrating the first night of hanukkah, trying to stay positive. there is rise in antisemitism. the star of david is being removed from holiday displays. they say proudly celebrating hanukkah is crucial. >> hanukkah is message of victory. over 2000 years ago, perhaps people try to connect to modern-day fight going on in gaza. that is not the message of hanukkah. to connect the two is unamerican. >> todd: the founder of less people forget and is a jewish activist. how do you celebrate hanukkah this year with the pull of october 7 hanging over your head? >> good question, it is

something we are struggling with right now, it is a weird balance toward mourning what we saw and what is happening in israel, try to understand why there is a rise in antisemitism and trying to celebrate one of the most joyful holidays and joyous times of the year, you just heard, hanukkah is time of celebrating victory and miracles. it is timely fchl we need anything in this world, it is a good miracle. >> todd: agreed. when you see people limiting hanukkah celebration, do you think that is a good move for safety or is that giving in to rabied antisemitism forces throughout our country right now? >> i see it as giving in. these forces are taking over. ignorance is on the rise. a recent poll had one in five that believe the holocaust is a myth. what we've seen has been

horrifying and to give in to them is approving what they have been saying, shouting and doing and it will not help jewish people fight back and be proudly jewish, especially in the united states of america, where it should be so, so easy. >> todd: i don't understand that one-fifth number. as a sophomore, 30 years ago, sophomore in high school, we had a three-month period in our english class where we studied the holocaust and reviewed literature because it was english class through the holo holocaust. could you have envisioned the antisemitism since october 7 especially in light of the fact israel was the one attacked. >> jewish people are struggling right now, what happened on october 7 is so horrific. i don't think anyone realized

antisemitism could go up. it scared a lot of people. the most deadly day for jewish people since the holocaust. we have seen a rise in antisemitism and people being openly hating jews on college campuses and the workplace and on the television. you play clips of rallies, especially in new york city, people have no problem waving swastikas around. my grandfather warned me, i was too ignorant to believe him. >> todd: you were hopeful and that existed around the time. i'm hopeful that the tide is somewhat turning, i saw the testimony of three presidents there at the university and outrage to them. i'm hopeful in the hanukkah season that the tide is turning. try to enjoy yourself this hanukkah. we appreciate your time. back to our top story, hunter

did it go and how it ties back to joseph biden? >> i think that is absolutely right. the tax charges are tax charges. the broader story is the timeline of this event. when was he charged now will it get to a jury before the election? probably not. what does that mean? the president does not have to make a decision to pardon his son. that is significance of how long it took to appoint david weiss special counsel. what charges don't we see? anything related to fara, influence pedalling or tax implication of alleged loans to joe biden. >> carley: a fara violation could directly tie hunter biden to joe biden because it would be he failed to register as a

foreign agent for influence pedalling. do you think there are nine charges here, three of them are felonies that the fara charge, it is missing, would be a bigger deal than unfolded yesterday? >> absolutely and sofaras implicate other people in the biden family, potentially in the conduct. fara charge is about influence pedalling and representing a foreign power in front of the government. a tax charge is more personal. i didn't accurately file my tax return, i lied about what deductions i was taking, that is personal. a fara charge, much more global or tax charge related to who paid taxes if there was below market charge to joe biden. >> todd: a lot of talk has been about getting hunter biden to testify in congress and the talk

was hunter's team wanted to do it publicly, comer and the gang in a deposition setting behind closed doors. in reality, this could allow hunter to claim the fifth amendment with regard to testimony. doesn't it increase the need for impeachment inquiry by that very congress into joe biden because joe biden won't have the same protection of fifth amendment because that is not how impeachments work. >> that is correct. you probably can't assert a fifth amendment right in impeachment, whether joe biden could serve a fifth amendment right because of potential prosecution, we don't know. it is correct, this increases likelihood that hunter biden could invoke the fifth amendment. as i said, this is less about hunter biden and more about why

was david weiss not given the authority to bring these charges until this august? why did it take so long? why did the attorney general say this investigation, david weiss is running it and we know he wasn't. >> carley: there are questions about david weiss, he was going to enter a plea deal where hunter gets three misdemeanors, now he is hit with nine charges. how do you explain that? >> most logical explanation, look at before he did not have authority and needed doj tax sign-off and sign-off from another united states attorney. he now has complete authority to charge and he's gone ahead and charged that. it really does go to was he independent before? everything indicates he and the attorney general were not truthful with congress when they said he was. now he is, we get more charge.

proof in the pudding to see, is this it or do we get continued investigation, grand jury activity? later this year and next year into fara, influence pedalling. >> todd: political side of this timing maybe democratic party is done with joe biden. >> carley: the president still has pardon power, with that pardon power, i'm sure he is not too concerned about that. >> todd: for now, you need the trial to happen before the election. >> todd: to big news in sports, spanish golf star jon rahm is out, leaving the p.g.a. tour for saudi backed liv golf. >> it is not an easy decision, i've had a successful career and been very happy, a lot of things liv golf have to offer that were enticing. i do not play golf for the
