look at the border. when you look at the state of the country and weakness and compromise elements with regard to his actions against china, this is why i actually support representative boebert's upcoming privilege resolution that would actually look at impeachment of joe biden as a result of multiple failures. >> carley: see if that actually ends up happening. corey we have to leave it there. thank you for joining us. "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ >> brian: we begin with a fox news alert. the u.s. coast guard confirming searchers heard banging noises every 30 minutes neither area where the titanic submersible disappeared. >> that's vessel carrying these five individuals. we have pictures of all of them now. they have about 24 hours, unfortunately, until they run out of oxygen, according to the experts. and coast guard officials are warning that they're dealing with a massive search area. but they are going to continue to exhaust all possible efforts to save these lives. >> lawrence: we'll be covering this story all morning.

20 minutes joined by a friend of one of those people trapped in the vessel but we have a lot of news out of d.c. this morning. let's get to this. hunter biden is set to plead guilty to two misdemeanor charges related to his tax filings. >> brian: many are calling his agreement a sweetheart deal that's why we put it in bold in the prompter. drop his felony drug charge after two years of probation. house republicans say they won't stop their investigations. >> ainsley: lucas tomlinson joins us. >> good morning. the chairman of the house oversight committee says he wants to see transparency. he says he's not getting it. >> unfortunately, we saw a lot of redactions in these documents. i would estimate that 55 to 60% of the two documents were redacted. it's just a complete waste of my time. it's another example of the fbi stalling, stonewalling, doing everything they can to obstruct the house oversight committee's credible investigation of biden bribery.

>> bill barr says the justice department should release more information whether it comes to hunter biden. >> i think they should cooperate with chairman come member's investigation into, you know, all the business dealings. and part of that investigation, i think, will be to look at the thoroughness of the department's investigation. i would be interested to know -- >> as you mentioned, brian, many think hunter biden received a sweetheart deal. many eyebrows raised whether thinks attorney said the following. >> do you think hunter biden was treated fairly? >> that's a really complicated question. >> why is it so complicated. >> i think that, you know, mr. biden had a period in his life that was troubled, where, you know, it's very clear he didn't timely pay the taxes he was supposed to pay at the time. he subsequently has paid them. but, he didn't timely pay them. >> now, for years, the president claimed his son did nothing wrong. yesterday, he said he still

stands by his son. >> mr. president, have you spoken to your son today? have you spoken to your son today? >> thanks. >> mr. president, any reaction. >> i'm very proud of my son. >> top democrat on the oversight committee saying hunter biden's plea deal reflects the justice department's continued institutional independence. and following the evidence of actual crimes, forcing the rule of law even in the face of constant criticism and heckling by my g.o.p. colleagues who think that the system of justice should only follow their partisan wishes. the "new york post" reports hunter biden and the mother of his 4-year-old daughter have settled their child support support in arkansas privately. it's likely monthly child support payments have been reduced from $20,000 a month might be an economic indicator there, guys. >> brian: lucas, i don't know, have you worked fray chart at h and r block at all? have you done that on the side. >> i have used the software

doing my taxes over the years. >> brian: i think that counts. only pay $20,000 on is .5 million income that's a sweet heart deal he must have a lot of writeoffs. >> no flat tax despite steve forbes' best hopes you think he would be paying more on that. >> brian: that's why he hired 87,000 irs agents to hunt down people like hunter. >> ainsley: usually you pay 45, 50%. >> brian: most of the pictures we saw him in he has no shirt on. thanks, lucas. >> ainsley: he might have spent it on the girl. >> lawrence: definitely was his child when his judge citizens to say he doesn't have the money and the judge made it very clear how are you paying for high powered attorneys and all this other stuff that you have and this la vish lifestyle. can you pay for your child and i'm increasing the amount of money you have to pay every month to his baby momma.

>> brian: cut it from 20,000 a month to 5,000. i don't know the "new york post" has that story today. >> ainsley: felony drug charge. it was dropped if he completes two years of probation. he didn't pay taxes for 2017 and 2018. >> brian: it happens. >> ainsley: so he can s. going to get out of all of this. this is a sweetheart deal. his lawyer was interviewed on msnbc as you saw a clip and just acts like now he is free. he had a bad time in his life. now he is free. nothing else is going on. says he doesn't even know if the laptop had anything to do with it, that he can't even recall being asked about it. listen. >> do you have any idea if hunter biden's laptop had anything to do with this investigation? was it used? >> i don't. no, i don't. >> were you ever asked about it. >> um, i can't recall being asked about it, to be honest with you. but there's nothing about -- the situation that's being -- that's the been filed that has a thing to do with the laptop. >> why not? >> i don't know.

you'd have to ask the prosecutors. >> the republican also say the laptop has tons of proof that there was -- that hunter biden d in corruption; that there is financial proof that president biden and hunter biden were connected in the gains that were made overseas by hunter biden. have you ever seen any proof of that. >> no, no. i mean, again, i have seen people wave various vanity mills around i have never seen it. >> brian: the fbi can't say they didn't have the laptop. they had it before anybody else about three years now. it's all there. to me, the most interesting thing about hunter biden and his future is the international business deals. he was not registered as a foreign agent to do these deals. and then we have got to find out who profited from them. the gun deal, the filing taxes. obviously illegal. obviously he is getting probation. obviously he is -- this is a five year investigation into finding out something that probably should have taken five minutes. but the most impactful thing

would be the deal in kazakhstan. the deal with the moscow mayor. what were you doing in ukraine. what about china? what about all those suspicious activity reports? how could you do an investigation on him and not answer -- and be his lawyer and not answer the question. was anything on the laptop involved in the investigation? i thought you had to prepare for everything when you have a client like this or any client. >> lawrence: it's because he got no heat from the prosecution. kodak black who is a rapper attorney put out a statement said he has been practicing law 26 years. kodak had the same charge. he has never seen someone who has a gun charge as well as a tax charge like this and get no prison time. never seen it in 26 years of practicing law. how does this happen? and. >> ainsley: absent a plea deal, prurent could face two years in prison for tax charges and five years for firearm charges. >> lawrence: according to sources people familiar with the investigation the department

would just be recommending 24 months of probation for the tax charge. then is he going to get, as far as the gun things, have to take some type of program. it's just -- i'm not even just talking about the celebrities that haven't been treated this way. >> brian: what about wesley snipes? >> lawrence: average everyday americans would have to see -- i wonder what a federal judge would say about this because this still has to be approved by them. the democrats have to choose a side on this. i thought they wanted to keep -- take guns seriously and, you have someone that's not qualified to get a gun lies on the paperwork and they are okay with this? >> david weiss says this is an ongoing investigation because a judge still has to accept this plea deal. when will ha happen? how many day also that take. wesley snipes he spent three years in prisoner. at that time one of the hottest actors in the country. so that's pretty bad. and this geico daca black evidently put the wrong social security number to get a gun. bought three of them and that's

lying on a gun form and he got 46 months. >> lawrence: lil' wayne. the list goes on and on. as i stated earlier, brian, this these are just the public facing celebrities is that have experienced. this average day americans get in trouble for this every village gel day at least to what the former president is saying on truth social. he said a sweetheart deal for hunter and joe as they continue their quest to get trump. joe's political opponents. we are now a third world country. i mean, you can criticize the former president all day. but if you look at this case. just on the merits and look at what average everyday americans other celebrities that we outlined, brian, it's clear that there is a two tiered justice system. >> brian: he doesn't pay any taxes. he also had a $2 million tax bill some sugar daddy played some producer in california paid off and makes $1.2 million back-to-back and he owes $100,000 in taxes. i don't know. how do you do that?

that's 5%, 10%. mike pence and tim scott weighed in on. >> ainsley: how good was tim scott last night town hall with sean hannity in south carolina. he just grabbed the mic walked all over the stage and went to town. >> lawrence: one of his best moments. >> ainsley: he was good. he was strong. >> brian: he weighed in on this. >> while i welcome these charges and the guilty plea i have a sense this will do little to allay the concerns of millions of americans that we simply don't have equal treatment under the law. and i'm encouraging every member of congress to continue to do their job. use the power of the purse. >> big guy has some splaining to do. we cannot be the city on the hill if we are not first a nation of law and justice. we can't be the city on the hill. [applause] >> we cannot fulfill our destiny as america if we do not have the

lady of justice wearing a blindfold. we all have to be treated equally under the eyes and the laws of our country. [applause] and when the bidens get away with that, we need to thank god for senator grassley and congressman comer for doing their job. >> brian: i wonder if barack obama approved of that appearance. >> ainsley: lots of red, white, and blue in that crowd. i'm proud of that state. people decked out in red, white, and blue. his pastors were there from the church. >> brian: if he was not elected to the d.c. class he would have been put in jail a long time ago. nikki haley says this only raids further questions about hunter's crimes and the double standard of justice in the federal government. that's the way people feel. you have the durham report today. brings it up with certain questions and then you have james comer's continued investigation. which do revolve around the

international business dealings of hunter biden. >> lawrence: a five year investigation and we end here. i mean, it's so crazy to me as someone that has been following our criminal justice system, has stud teed our criminal justice system. a five year -- first of all. >> brian: you don't need five years. you need five minutes. >> lawrence: they are known for being aggressive. i guess this the price for when you are the president's son. >> brian: didn't joe biden just lose two issues. he lost the gun issue just now and he lost the tax issue. any of time he talks about taxes and horrible billionaires not paying enough money, and any time he brings up guns, don't tell me about background checks because we just had one and he got a pass. >> ainsley: tim scott said we first have to be a nation of law and justice. our lady justice wears a blindfold. he got away with this. and he thanks the republicans working on this in the house oversight committee. back to our fox news alert. just over 24 hours left to find

lobbying crimes to name a few. next guest predicted a sweetheart deal with hunter biden. kash patel served as deputy director of the national intelligence under donald trump and joins us now. cash, your thoughts on what looks like a plea deal that would leave hunter biden out of prison. >> well, good morning, brian, i wish i was here for you to call me out saying how wrong i got it because as a former federal public defender and national security prosecutor, this case has singularly done more damage to the institution of justice than i have ever seen in my life. what do i mean by that? as a federal public defender i handled hundreds of gun cases exactly like the one that hunter biden is supposedly being given to get out of jail free card on. every time a gun case tied justification the average prison sentence was 3 to 5 years in federal prison. so why is it that he gets pre-trial diversion which almost never happens in federal court based on the justification there is only one that he is currently a drug addict. you must currently be a

narcotics addict to receive justification for pre-trial diversification. diversion? he was a drug addict or is one right now. the d.j. is being too cute by half. that is a total miscarriage of justice. >> brian: second tax charge. somebody else paid $2 million tax bill and that's the tax rate of maybe 10% on 1.5 million. what kind of deal is that. you don't get that off turbo tax. real quick bigger where is that money? is that why david weiss says he hasn't closed the investigation because, perhaps, is he looking into that? what do you think? >> i think it's the continued weaponization of doj by putting out that statement because hunter's lawyer said he believes the case is resolved from. a defense attorney and doj perspective, you don't close multiple investigations with one

plea and say oh we are working on other stuff. but allowing the statement to go out that says the investigation is ongoing, irrespective of what the defense attorney says because his job is to champion his client, irrespective of that, you must issue this statement if you are the doj to say congress, we have an ongoing matter. it doesn't matter how many subpoenas you send us. we are never going to give you the documents. you are never getting the 1023 on bribery now we know about audio recordings and the lies that chris wray and merrick garland told congress and they will steam roll over them with this ongoing investigation. >> brian: chairman of oversight and weaponization of jim jordan trying to get to the bottom of these whistleblowers who keep coming forward and talking about the bribery that went on during when joe biden was vice president and afterwards. here is comer on the frustration with the fbi. listen. >> unfortunately, we saw a lot of redactions in these documents. i would estimate that 55 to 60%

of the two documents were redacted. the two documents that they provided me today that were heavily redacted that one thing that wasn't redacted was the date. and both dates were 2017. so i asked him to bring me the 2018 one. it's just a complete waste of my time. it's another example of the fbi stalling, stonewalling, doing everything they can to obstruct the house oversight committee's credible investigation of biden bribery. >> brian: do you understand the frustration? i mean, where does he go from here if they are going to keep redacting the most important part of these whistleblower statements? >> i completely understand the frustration chief investigator chairman newman and i issued 17 subpoenas and went through the exact measure. i appreciate where comer and jordan are going. this is what they have to do. we did it. fence the money. concept in congress that the majority can issue to take the money and i'm not saying defund the entire fbi and doj, but you take their fancy toys. you take the money paying for chris wray's private funded private jet. you take the money for their 10

new he is can a ladies. you take the money for their new buildings, and that is the only thing that will get these government gangsters to bend the knee to the constitutional oversight of congress. remember, these documents, yes, are for the members of congress. but for the american people first and foremost. and if they continue to slow roll them by sending them letters and asking them politely and playing redaction games it's not going to get us anywhere. we need to destroy this two tiered system of justice. >> brian: have you told james comer this. >> i have said it publicly probably a thousand times and i will continue to say it until we get resolve. >> brian: they are not going to fund that new building with the fbi. that's one thing. but the private jet and all the other things will be fascinating to see how they react. kash patel, thanks so much. >> thank you very much. have a good morning. >> brian: meanwhile, let's go over to carley shimkus for the other news. >> carley: brian a horrific story to report here. chilling body cam footage the moment the ohio man accused muscular dystrophy dering three young sons taken into custody.
