12:04 pm

12:05 pm
audiobook played yesterday but still deals with the overall drug addiction. >> it crack takes into the darkest recesses of your soul. as well as the darkest corners of every community. >> prosecutors say this gun form is central to the case, firearm at form 4473, there is a no jack-in-the-box that is the part of the case, hunter's attorney says that is not clear if hunter even check that a box and there might be some chain of custody issues. >> martha: okay,, thank you very much. let's bring in judge jeanine pirro, cohost of the five, great to have you with us tonight. as david just told us, the man who sold him the gun is currently on the stand but we heard today from catherine beall, his former wife. let's pull up some things from what it she testified today, she said in 2015, 2019, which augustine boxes -- encompasses the spirit, she would search
12:06 pm
hunter's car for drugs when she would lend the car to her daughter's, she wanted to make sure they were not driving with the drugs. asking to confirm she was checking his car for drugs in 2018, she said yes. you're taken what we heard today? >> judge jeanine: i think what we're seeing here is a myriad of circumstantial evidence in addition to direct evidence from a defendant's own mouth in terms of what the journey -- jury is hearing from the audio version of this book. it simply cooperates each and every element of the indictment in this case. this is not a difficult case to prove, avenue identity, people in my office have done it. the question is whether or not, and this is what i think is so interesting, whether or not the presence of jill biden, even for the jury selection which is very unusual, family members usually come in for the trial. but here is jury selection angela biden is there every day and we just started she's
12:07 pm
putting her arm around about shoulder of hunter biden's wife, we have a solid front in delaware in this courtroom and they are singling that the biden family which is a very powerful family that everybody has apparently heard about and know somebody who knows, is one and that is very on top of this and is not going to forget what is going on. while they are trying to do here martha, is there trying to overlook the fact there is proof beyond a reasonable doubt no matter what i below tries to say. but they are trying to go to the jury to maybe nullify the verdict which it simply means jury may believe the case has been proven to their satisfaction, to everybody beyond a reasonable doubt but they will cut him loose for any reason. it could be maybe they think he has paid enough. but the prosecution because of the consequence of this ridiculous deal that they tried to pass in front of a federal judge, the same judge they are
12:08 pm
trying to this case in front of, it was so bizarre and so beyond the pale, they not have to prove every element of the case and they are doing that. >> martha: one of the areas they can find to open the aperture a reasonable doubt is if this person on the stand right now, who had filled out of the gun form and sold him the gun, of this person says, while, sometimes i fill out parts of it, maybe i filled it out, e. with that's why i below has up their sleeves. they want to go through with this trial. they are not trying to plead guilty which some people thought they should just do. >> judge jeanine: at that they should play guilty as all. abbey is trying to pull a rabbit out of the house by saying the guy from the gun store apparently after-the-fact filled in some number, in no foot was a license number or what it was, not essential to the issue before the jury which is whether or not hunter biden lied when he
12:09 pm
said he was not a user of unlawful drugs and not addicted. >> martha: we will see. you never know with juries. nobody knows that a better than you, good to see it, thank you very much. great to have you with us. >> judge jeanine: bye-bye. >> martha: and honor. always good to see. for the first time here in fox news, former attorney general bill barr will join us to react to the fallen presidents trumps conviction in a case that he has called an abomination. we will see what you says. is a quick.

>> martha: as president biden prepares to speak at the 80th anniversary of the allied d-day landings and nobody,'s political allies at home have spend the day defending him from a pretty rough report of that came out today in the wall street journal. interviews with more than 45 lawmakers who say the 81 yield president is showing "signs of decline hind closed doors". >> this is a political attack coming in a political season. >> my response to the peas, donald trump. >> to this is basically house republicans walking at joe biden is light years ahead of all of them. >> presidents using nodes and meetings that's not unusual. >> and this was a classic hit piece. >> martha: let's bring in a democrat senator, of delaware, also serves as cochair of

presidents biden's campaign, at the happy with us. thank you very much for being here today. >> great to be on with you again. >> martha: i am imagining you probably agree with the voices you heard at the end of the introduction then there, but i would like to put up a pole, a recent poll, fox news power rankings polls that came out, in terms of voters saying who is more mentally and physically fit to serve, on those measures up on the screen, the former president trump is post- 21 in this polling and it goes down the list of mentally sound and sharp, physically healthy and not too old. politically looking at the election in an objective way, how much of a negative is all over this for the person you clearly support? >> while the story you are talking about on the wall street
12:16 pm
journal was written by reporters i know and respect and publishing a paper that are read in respect. even the most talented among us occasionally swing and strike out. bryce harper even strikes out now and again and i think they got this wrong because the data did not use quotes from those of us who served with president biden who know him, who have had the opportunity up close and personal in it meetings in the white house or advance publicly or privately, to give affirmation that he is sharp, he is engaged and he is commanding in the poll you just showed reflects the fact that there has been a lot of coverage of minor slips, of small ways in which president biden reflects the fact that all of us have demanding lives in public service sometimes misspeak. i struck a little coverage there is of the yawning gap between president biden and former president trump who also has frequent missteps when he missed
12:17 pm
it and advise who he is talking to her what he's talking about it, but says things that are fundamentally untrue. the bigger gap is in their character to make, in their values of, in one of these say about american veterans, about the choices they lay out over how they would govern if elected, and how they have demonstrated respect for the rule of law and understanding of the importance of the democracy that the veterans and d-day fought for. >> martha: right. i do want to get to that with you quickly. i would say this, these polls are time and time again showing the same thing, is that people have concerns. >> other shown to thing martha -- >> martha: you know, i have to give people credit, for saying what they say when they look at a tv screen, when they listen to an interview. we will see what the voters think in five months. for these things do keep coming up and if you think the pieces unfair and he which they wish --
12:18 pm
would have shown more of the or prospective. i just want to give you 30 seconds if i make, spent holding on d-day tomorrow. at the american cemetery? >> thank you martha kahnapace part of a bipartisan delegation that went to taiwan and singapore to ensure our partners and allies in the indo pacific, president biden has been a very strong leader and pulling together stronger and more capable partnerships with our allies. at that cemetery where 17,000 americans are buried was a sombra moment for me to reflect on all the sacrifices in the second world war. like us in our allies around the world. >> martha: these cemeteries are a permanent and everlasting monument to the sacrifices that heroes have made for as, and we cannot forget those sacrifices every single day of our lives thought that we will do here. thank you i get to see. see you soon. >> thank you martha student

former attorney general william barr details what he thinks about a former president trumps conviction here in new york and what he expects is likely to come next
12:20 pm
12:21 pm
12:22 pm
>> martha: former president trump's lawyers today asking the judge in his in new york city trial to live the gaggle order now that trial is over, they say
12:23 pm
they never agreed, and "now that the trial is concluded, of the concerns articulated by the government and the court cannot justify continued restrictions on a first amendment rights of president trump. so the manhattan das office was finding "the court has an obligation to protect the integrity of these proceedings in the fair administration of justice at least through the sentencing hearing and the resolution of any post trial motions coming from the da office. without spring and former attorney general, william barr, great to have you with us. want to get your thought on that gag-order but first i would like to get your reaction, this case was built in a very flimsy indictment, read surprise when the 34 guilty verdicts came d down? >> i wasn't particularly surprised but aside from the very start of this was an
12:24 pm
abomination, and i was surprised they went ahead with the case. really there was nothing there, there was no crime? they couldn't articulated after after the defense rested its case. about the whole thing was a travesty, wasn't surprised by the verdict because the way the case was conducted, was never really any discipline on trying to make the prosecutor establish what the elements of the crime were, it was assumed from the beginning there was some kind of federal code -- federal election campaign violation which there was not. >> martha: you know, when i asked people reaction to this, it kind of goes all over the spectrum but what we're seeing in some of the polling as well and the jury, kamala harris out of the jury spoke the prosecution had an opportunity to lay out their case, how does that make you feel so who cares deeply about the justice system in this country?
12:25 pm
>> i think this is exhibit different exhibit no. 1 of the system of justice that is becoming more and more evident, answer want to point out that what this is due to our body of politics and due to a country? this case be overruled, there were just multiple errors and violations of constitutional rights, andy mccarthy and jonathan turley has definitely you discussed on your show. this will eventually be overruled after the election. what happens if that is a close election and joe biden squeaks through, and then in the cases overruled? have the country's going to this was a stolen election. and again, this is a grave injustice and deserves to the country. >> martha: speaking with a lot of veterans here,, sadly to a
12:26 pm
person they are how concerned they are about the system of justice in the united states, the leadership, is probably the most unsettling thing ever heard since i've been here, so much inspiration and most of it. let me ask you about a six my, is a town to live that gag-order because they really seem to like the gag-order and they have michael cohen mouthing off about it the children of the trump family, stormy daniels that she wants to make trump into punching the bag for woman victims. they are not silenced at all. >> that's right. and i think the president's lawyers are correct, the whole purpose of this gag-order was to protect the integrity of the process, to make sure that trial was not disrupted by what was said. at the is now over negative verdict has been delivered, now everybody out of there is talking about it including michael cohen and stormy daniels and the president like anybody
12:27 pm
else is the right to defend himself and as a rule of public opinion -- into the court of public opinion especially running for the presidency of the united states. you should be able to attack the charges, to assert the witnesses against him were not telling the truth and point out all the flaws in the case, and some of the rulings that were inexplicable. >> martha: given what you have seen quickly if you can, what he expected the sentencing? >> i hope he doesn't do what they usually do, with the left usually does which is go too f far. and either deny him his freedom or impose a severe gag-order on him. i think again it was sort of -- it would affect people's attitudes towards the fairness of the selection.
12:28 pm
>> martha: we will see, hopefully we will speak to you around that day which always everybody will be watching intently. former attorney general, always good to see,'s we think for coming on today. >> thank you. >> martha: president biden taking a swipe at a major u.s. ally as he prepares to commemorate d-day here and "to feed dictators he says" part of oval what he wants recognize here, when you comes to normandy. that will happen tomorrow mid day, early in the morning for you at home.

12:48 pm
me, this one guy was cut in half and i think i was talking to myself saying what the hell am i doing here? get me through this. it is all history. i'm glad i'm here, i feel bad about not having some of my buddies with me, one time i was at the cemetery and i was looking for a couple of my brothers that have lost and i looked on an icy neck and frank, couple of spaghetti vendors, italian guys, in a said you know guys, have had a chance to raise a family, enjoy life, why don't i go down there and you guys come up? just like i'm talking to you right now, i'm looking down on him and frank was kind of a heavyset guy i said, yeah,, you guys come up and enjoy little bit of life. algal back down there, don't take anything over 72 hours. gonna come back up.
12:49 pm
it's realistic, i dream about it an lot that way. but your dreams are something, your eyes take a picture of the world, your mind kind of devours a and the rest of it, you are just lucky to be where you are at today. >> martha: god bless them. and you help other people remember their service, and know that is very important to you. you talk very openly about the struggles that he had with ptsd, when you came back from the war, that did not have a name. >> no, it was battle fatigue. combat fatigue. well i had a brother, we were really close, and they sent him it down to illinois, he said to randall i don't want to go down
12:50 pm
