so many people don't want to work these days. we have got three companies you could actually wind up working for them that's part of our show today as we kick things off on this tuesday, july 25th, 2023. live from -- come on mezzanine level here. >> ainsley: we want to empower and we want to honor our veterans. >> joey: i am.teran. will. >> ainsley: so nice of brian let me come on on hire a vet day. >> ainsley: some come back and they're lost. >> joey: hear we should do more for our veterans. we should expect more from our veterans to go and find a career after military service. we are very grateful for this 20-year war that rocked our country for two decades we can't just say now we are going to take care of you and pacify you. expect veterans to come out and bring all the tools and experiences into a civilian job and thrive there, too. >> steve: if you are looking, three companies introduce you to

the beam from those companies coming up in about half an hour right here on fox. who knows. by the end of the day you could have a new job. >> joey: i don't want a new job. i'm liking this one right here. >> steve: joey is in today. brian is off this week. great to have you here. >> ainsley: kevin mccarthy, the speaker of the house. halls raised a possible impeachment inquiry into the president. the house was trying to do this last month over the border policies and the speaker shut that all down. this is the closest he has come to making that threat against the president personally. everything happenings with the business dealings and all the implications. what did the president know? how close was he to his son's business partners. was there an exchange money for policy? >> steve: well, you know what? chuck grassley last week released that fbi document known as the 1023. i have heard from my friends in congress that apparently the republicans in the house are

planning to use that 1023 form as the basis to impeach joe biden. and that is why kevin mccarthy came as close as he has talked to the i word about this president last night with sean. watch this. >> we now have some of the most credible whistleblowers. these 10-year irs agents who have come forward, said that the biden family has been treated differently, that what weiss has told us is different than what garland and weiss has told the public. you are sitting here today where now you have found millions of foreign money just with the 1023 alleges they did to biden's family. now we have found it has funneled through shell companies. this is living to the level of impeachment inquiry which provides congress the strongest power to get the rest of the knowledge and information needed. because this president has also used something we have not seen since richard nixon, used the

weaponization of government to benefit his family and deny congress the ability to have the oversight. >> joey: strong language. the 1023 won't get it done, but if it opens questions that they find answers to, that's really what they're looking for. the 1023 is a document of a source saying well, i heard this and i heard that and so and so saw this and so and so says that. that's not evidence. what that is a starting point. the problem we have had whistleblowers said we can't start from there. we can't look at these things. we can't go investigate them. then congress is saying then we will do that for you. >> steve: joey, you are absolutely right. the 1023 has been unverified and in fact walked back. some of the critical stuff in it has already been -- was contradicted by earlier testimony from one of the other impeachments, but, nonetheless, it poses questions and now as the speaker said you have got these whistleblowers and other things. there is a lot of circumstantial evidence w.

what the house investigators need do and do it in impeachment proceeding presumably they need to connect ought all of the dots from hunter biden to his dad. was money given to the biden family for something that was illegal? right now we don't know that that is true; however, there's a lot of smoke. we just don't know if there is any fire. >> ainsley: we know burisma was being investigated by the prosecutor in ukraine. we know that the president, he was vice president of the tet time, went over and gave a billion dollars in american tax dollars in exchange for that prosecutor being fired. he said if that prosecutor is hired fired, the one who is looking into burisma my son sits on the board, i will give you this money but he has to be fired within the next few hours. that guy was fired. the prosecutor was fired. we also learned from whistleblowers 5 million for one biden, 5 million for another biden. hunter biden was getting paid millions of dollars to sit on the board of burisma we know that burisma executives

according to the 1023 or whistleblowers allegedly said that they didn't want to pay but they had to so hunter could, quote: protect us from his dad all kinds of problems. joe biden admitted on camera that he had that prosecutor fired. they are looking into all of this information and just trying to follow the money and see if that money does trace back to joe biden. did he get rich in exchange for policy? >> joey: the accusation is essentially hunter biden received money from special interest and other countries and joe biden made decisions or influenced policy based on that money and how it would benefit them. that's a big deal. that's corruption at its highest level. >> steve: you think? >> joey: also goes back to can you floof was the conversation between joey and hunter. telling people hey, my dad is going to do these things. that's much that's ploof enough. the white house is starting to change its tone and tenor just a little bit. ask gillian turner ask the press

secretary about the biden's business dealings. >> chairman james comer today says the oversight committee, excuse me, has evidence that the president in the past communicated directly with foreign business associates of his son hunter biden many times. curious if the white house and the president still stand behind his comment that he has never been involved and has never even spoken his son about his business? >> so i have been asked this question a million times. the answer is not going to change. the answer remains the same. the president was never in business with his son. i just don't have anything else to add. >> steve: that's so funny what she said i've been asked a million times and i'm going to give you the same answer it's a different answer. peter doocy asked at the iowa state fair years ago when joe biden, former vice president was running for president have you ever spoken to your son about his overseas business dealings and joe biden emphatically yelled at peter. that morphed into the president was never in business with his

son. which is true. also apparently what is true is according to devon archer who is hunter biden's long-time business associate and best friend and apparently he has been subpoenaed by the house oversight, he is going to be called in behind closed doors, it's been rescheduled a fourth time. devon archer is far left right there in that image, so, obviously joe has spoken to his son's friends about their business dealings overseas and things like that. buff, as we told you yesterday, devon archer is going to say that some times hunter would be in a business meeting with some perspective new clients or something like that, and he would essentially dual this party trick where he would get out his phone and call his dad and put him on speaker and say hey, dad, i'm with and i'm going to fill in the blank i'm with the burisma guys say hi. joe would say some different things. hi, how's the weather out there or whatever. devon archer says they are vague

pleasantries as you would expect from a politician. nonetheless, it shows that perhaps hunter was using his father as a way to get business. >> ainsley: some other news this morning, the doj is offering the u.s. attorney david weiss to testify in front of the house. we will find if that happens. the assistant a.g. wrote jim jordan and said accepted this offer for weiss to testify. also, there's a lot of news this morning about the democrats. there's a democrat in congress that anonymously talked to another news agency in d.c. and said that democrats need to be more responsive and address the concerns about biden's age. they said they are worried about him falling after he fell at the air force academy graduation. he said a number of text messages i got after the president fell, i mean, my phone was blowing up. people are like oh, this is so bad. >> steve: sure. we are going to talk about that more in a little bit. the cover of the "new york post" not easy street it's cecil street.

esell street. hunter would never know who bought the stuff? business insider ar patiently he has raked in $1.3 million for his art. turns out one of the buyers was by the name of elizabeth heaven naftali. a democratic donor bought some of hunter biden's art. unclear whether she bought it before or after she was appointed to the commission for the preservation of america's heritage abroad. a fancy commission. unclear when bought or how many she paid. but we also know that hunter's so-called sugar brother, that kevin morse guy apparently bought -- he is the guy who paid $2 million so that hunter could pay off his taxes, apparently he also bought some art. >> joey: this is one of those just like the press secretary

sitting there saying well the president was never in business with his son. you are probably not going to find a tax filing showing him as a co-owner of. will lc. but was he doing business with his son? hunter biden didn't sell his artwork as a way to launder money. are you going to find people who got something from president biden who also bought hunter's paintings. just because text message isn't there the receipt isn't there doesn't mean can you spit in my face and tell me it's raining. when you see something this obvious it's probably exactly what it look like. >> ainsley: it could be we have heard about hunter biden getting this money and put in his account wasn't he complaining on his laptop i have to pay all the bills for this family? and, you know, the big guy. maybe he is getting all the money and paying the bills. these are. so answers or questions that we have and we want answers for it. >> steve: no kidding. okay. straight ahead on easel street we will continue with that switching gears. search continues inside the home of suspected gilgo beach on long

those are of intrigue what are you looking for when you get in there? >> looking for everything tangible objects of evidence more importantly we are looking for d.n.a., blood, fibers, hair that sort of stuff. that's why it's taken so long to do the search because the criminalistics people are going inch by inch by inch and it's a pain-staking process. >> joey: these murders go back and it's been a long time. how much harder does that make finding evidence like that? >> well, it's very difficult. so, but, you know, it's not impossible. the four women's bodies were found. you know, out in the open. they were skeletonized by the time they were recovered but there were hairs and forensic value which we were able linked to the defendant but his wife as well. >> joey: if he is in fact convicted and we discover this is the person who committed these murders what does that say to policing to stay on cold

cases and not let them run dry? >> the commitment from our tank force was tremendous. and we had contribution from a lot of really talented investigators from a lot of great agencies. >> joey: where else might we expect y'all to look for evidence and to find more and to discover more opportunity to convict this guy? >> the opportunity -- an arrest presents an opportunity that opportunity is to execute swarchts. we executed sphwharns a great number of places. enough to we have all this information and data, we are going to go through it, we are are going to examine it and examine it forensically. worked three charge cases and investigate all the cases involving gilgo beach. >> joey: thank you so much for joining us and bringing this information. i know at love people captivated by. this it's tragic at least some closure if we can find out who did it appeared put them behind bars. >> this is just the beginning but we will certainly continue to work the case, thank you.

is. >> i'm curious if the white house and the president still stand behind his comment that he has never been involved and never even spoken it his son about his business. >> i have been asked this question a million times. the answer is not going to change. the answer remains the same. the president was never in business with his son. i just don't have anything else to add.

>> steve: that's a new answer. there you have got the white house saying president biden was never in business with his son. this as a former associate is expected to testify on monday behind closed doors and reportedly claim that punter put his dad on the phone via speaker phone with overseas clients at least two dozen times. kash patel served as deputy director of national intel under donald trump. evidence joins us right now from the d.c. area. kash, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve, thanks for having me. >> what do you make of that change? for a very long time it all started with a fox reporter asking joe biden you ever talk to your son and he goes no, i have never talked to my son about his overseas business dealings. now, obviously, they have got this guy who says yeah he talked all the time to his overseas business partners. but he was never in business. why change the story, kash? >> well, look, steve, as a former federal prosecutor and public defender, whether it's a witness for the defense or prosecution change story once,

landed a blow against credibility in front of the jury. here the jury is the american public and the world. because the witness is president biden. he hasn't changed his story once or twice or three times. it's at least four times. thanks to the dogged pressure and questioning from your white house reporter pool, the white house has been forced to address this issue. here's the kicker. if the fbi and doj knew for certainty that joe biden had absolutely nothing do with hunter biden and china and ukraine and burisma and all that other stuff, they would have definitively come out and said. so they have been deafening silent since all the whistleblower story come in. the documents have surfaced. joe biden has a real problem here and his white house is lying to the world. >> steve: you know, kash, we ran a soundbite 45 minutes ago of kevin mccarter, the speaker of the house. he was on last night with sean hannity. he was talking a little bit about given the fact that there is this mounting evidence, and in particular, that 1023 that was released by chuck grassley last week, i know that's

completely unverified. it has not been verified. but, nonetheless, it provides a road map for investigators to go ahead and start to try to connect the dots. as the house calls in devon archer, hunter's former business partner next week i know you used to work on the house oversight committee back in the day, how would you approach t that? >> so, look, here's the critical piece about witnesses and you are right, most of that isn't verified this is new reporting that the fbi can did verify some of the substantiated claims in that document. what i would do is sit the witness down to say here are all the other documents we have. in order to do it successfully, you have to come in with the fbi having already returned service on process on the subpoena to get the amounts of payments to get the recordings to get the confidential human solves services that were involved. thin you can put the witness in the seat and say tell us about the dealings, tell us about this

transaction. devon archer for those who don't know is basically hunter biden's twin. they were burisma board buddies together. they were rosemont seneca, chinese private equity deals. wherever hunter was doing a transaction devon archer is there. it's like a videotape a critical piece of evidence i hope they get it right. >> steve: kash, easel street, you know, hunter is now an artist and supposedly the white house lawyers set up this thing where hunter will never know who the buyers are. turns out he sold this stuff for $1.3 billion according to a business insider. one of the people who bought it was a democratic donor who wound up on a big commission appointed by his father. >> yeah. i mean, it's just a reuse. it's totally unethical. unlawful. i have been worked in the white house. you have been around the white house. think if i was painting paintings about the baghdad raid

and selling it the white house told me i won't know who bought it nothing see here even though i pocketed $7 million. of the fake news media would have a field day. maybe give that money to charity instead of pocketing it and claiming how poor they're. >> steve: let's see what happens. kash patel, thank you for joining us from d.c. >> thanks so much. >> steve: 1 minutes now before the the top of the hour. carley joins us with news from china. >> carley: the biden administration is thinking about lifting sanctions against a chinese police agency accused of human rights abuses in order to get the ccp to cooperate in fighting the fentanyl crisis. that is according to the wall street journal. secretary of state an antony blinken proposed a new crack down on the dangerous drug during high level meetings in beijing last month but china says it won't budge without relief from sanction imposed by the trump administration in 2020. climate activist in washington state are literally living in an old cedar tree to stop it from being chopped down to make way

really warm and you have got the humidity. so 107 in st. louis. 100 in nashville. and that's going to come up towards the mid-atlantic and northeast friday. look at that 100 degrees is what it is going to feel like in new york. 106 in columbus and. the average is 85. 95 on thursday. and then as we get into the weekend. cooler air moves. in that's short lived. not the same story for parts of the south. we are getting some of that monsoonal moisture in towards the southwest and that's cutting back on those temperatures. we could see severe storms today across the upper midwest as well as sections of the northeast and the mid-atlantic where we could see some hail damaging winds and heavy rainfall that could cause flash flooding and there is your forecast high so you can see the temperatures are warm. it's feeling like summertime across much of the lower 48. over to you, steve. >> steve: all right, j.d., thank you very much. >> janice: you got it. >> steve: meanwhile, coming up. do you hear that? that's the sound of freedom

meaning what's the debate within this strong? violent criminals and a guy singing about stopping them. okay. i'm telling you because i care. anybody out there who has never had this persons, you would rather get cornered by a guy with a guitar than a guy with a gun any day of the week. unless the guy with the guitar dave matthew's cover band. the issue in this song. is that everyone in america sees a market for what he is singing because of what they see when they walk out the door every day. it's like, again, it's aggressive. the song could have been titled "bring it on dirt bags." why are people responding because there are a lot of dirt bags. we had more empathy for the criminals than the incidents they have been terrorizing. a real market for the song but reality that's created it. >> ainsley: also, the people that are complaining are probably in new york and l.a. they are probably really progressive. they don't listen to his music anyway. >> no. number one. but, number two, they actually live in the worst towns. new york right now, we used to have these famous walking tours
