time. yesterday the white house said the president has neverbeen in business with hunter biden, different from "he has never spoken to" hunter biden about business. >> he has never been involved and never even spoken to his son about his -- >> i've been asked this question a million times, the answer will not change and remains the same. the president was never in business with his son. i do not have anything to add. >> gillian: the justice department offering public testimony of david weiss before congress. weiss ran the investigation into the president's son. the doj writes justice department believes it is in the american interest for congress to hear directly from u.s. attorney weiss on assertion and question about authority at public hearing. hunter biden will appear in court tomorrow for an initial

hearing. the doj previously said, as you well know, he will plead guilty to tax evasion. back to you. >> steve: the judge has to approve the deal. the judge could say, i've heard stories, i need to investigate more or i don't accept it, right? >> gillian: absolutely, this could go a number of ways. last week doj laid out what they believe will happen and what they agreed to with the president's son. that is still up to the discretion of the judge, could all change. >> steve: devin archer, hunter biden's former best friend and business associate going to sit down monday behind closed doors. will not be televised. he's rescheduled four times, any idea why? usually, okay, we'll see you on the 15th, he keeps moving it.

why? >> gillian: this is while he's under subpoena by the house oversight committee. the committee yesterday told us so far when archer backed out of depositions, he's cited personal reasons and scheduling reasons, they did not elaborate beyond that. the deposition will be transcribed, there is possibility that transcript will be made public to the american people. >> steve: we want it on tv. >> gillian: you and i. >> ainsley: i wonder, they assumed him on the 14th, this is the fourth time he said, i will have to wait longer. the committee only meets for one more week, i wonder if he will try to reschedule again. >> gillian: i asked chad pergram

appropriately placed on opposite side of president trump. >> ainsley: they do not like each other, do they? chris christie is fiery. desantis is fiery. trump can be fiery, too, love to see those three going after each other, it would be fun and entertaining to watch. i don't know if trump will show up. >> steve: he should. it will be moderated by those two. 9:00 eastern time on august 23rd. one thing going on right now, we were telling people about how over the weekend in deer valley at the ericson lodge, big mega-donors for ron desantis got together and trying to tweak the campaign issue because he's stalled in the polls. there is a story about and we touched on this briefly about how governor of the commonwealth of virginia, glenn youngkin has record-high approval rating in

commonwealth of virginia. people like what he's doing out there. u ultimately, look at a governor in the purple state and you think, i wonder if that guy could run for president, doesn't have to get in now, what about later? >> ainsley: he's getting 57% and virginia voters approve of job performance, 32 disapprove, up from april. in april, 53 approved and 35% disapproved. >> steve: we had the governor on the program talking about just the state of the race and what not and i asked him about a story i had just seen that said there were a lot of big donors who were inquiring whether or not the governor of the commonwealth of virginia glenn youngkin would like to run, big money is behind ron desantis. he has stalled at second place.

here is, hop in the way back machine. talking about glenn youngkin donors, are they saying go for? >> steve: not asking you if you are going to run for president, are donors saying, governor, why don't you get into it? >> i so appreciate the fact people are watching what is happening in virginia, it is huge encourage meaner. listen, virginia was deep blue and it was 47th in the nation in job recovery coming out of the pandemic and all of a sudden with lowering taxes and streamlining regulation and standing up for parents and backing education, back in the blue, we see virginia catapult into top 10 in job creation. we see parents exercising their rights in schools. we are doing the things we need to do to reestablish virginia as best place to live, work and raise a family.

folks all over the country appreciate it and are encouraging us. >> steve: interesting, he did not answer the question whether or not donors are asking him to run. we assume that means yes. >> ainsley: i assume no right now for the next race, maybe in the future. >> steve: i think right now. >> joey: i think this is primary season that will feel long until it is just that last-minute race until the end. it is one of those times president trump owns it right now. can anyone mount a challenge that appeals to his base? look at polls, his base 40 + percent is a big group. >> steve: that is why and we'll been talking for a while, official starting gate seem to be debates here on fox on august 23rd. after that, current poll numbers move around. if ron desantis does not move from second place, look for glenn youngkin to say, why not.

keep in mind, he is term limited and need something to do. >> ainsley: he has a lot of money. >> joey: i hope president trump comes to the debate. >> ainsley: i can't imagine someone would get in this late in the game and know you are only getting in to try to beat trump. >> steve: i'll bet somebody else will get in the race, i don't know if it is glenn youngkin. >> ainsley: what is the point if you are not going to win? >> joey: a lot of reasons don't have their -- owning an area of demographic for set yourself up for a pack or speaking engagement to make a donor bears feel they have a voice on that stage. >> ainsley: or so you can say you ran for president of the united states, right? >> steve: trump has four scheduled trials coming up, the first is october 2nd.

the most important supreme court question 1903, barbury versus madison and chief justice marshall determined constitution is not just principles, it is law of the land and supreme court has last say on that, not president, not congress, supreme court. when it is spoken, that is the law. >> steve: it is the law, if you don't like a decision these days, from somebody, you come up with another idea and then you say it long enough, people start saying, maybe there is something to that. the same two professors talking about packing the court for a while. >> bill: that's right. joe biden credit, he said he would resist efforts to pack the court. look at student aid issue, forgiveness of student aid. court said no, they come back and try it another wail.

is he trying to go around another way? if you get the president saying don't regard supreme court decisions as law of the land, you have a new form of government, not separation of power. presidents get to nominate supreme court justices. but once they speak, that's it. 1803 decision by marshall still stands. >> steve: sure. decider of what is constitutional is, you cited marbury, u.s. supreme court, regardless of what people think or they do not like what the supreme court is saying, that is elections have consequences. >> bill: right, elections have consequences, the court is the final word. the worry is biden has been critical supreme court decisions, which is fine issue

but don't let criticism spill over into disregarding those decisions or encouraging others to. that be anarchy and violation of our system. by the way, when marshall decided that in 1803, he was relying on alexander hamilton. we are fans of hamilton in this house and i used to teach "the federalist" papers. it is all there how this government is supposed to work. >> steve: bill bennett could have written hamilton, the musical, he was busy doing other stuff. >> i couldn't sing it for sure. >> steve: real pleasure. still ahead on this tuesday, paint yourself into a corner, fresh paint of scrutiny, top donor who bought one of hunter biden pieces was given cozy

corruption. as prosecutor, i look at this and say what do you want in a criminal case? motive means opportunity. they had motive, money, means they were in situation where they were able to dictate an opportunity because he was vice president and now the president, they have been able to make money. we have everything from e-mails, business records issue admissions by bobulinski and devin archer and all of them will be talking about things, pictures and whistleblowers, bank records, it goes on and on. the laptop is a treasure trove of information. you don't need anymore to convict them. this 1023 where olygarch, guess what, when they coerced the money, hunter biden filed no tax return and department of justice
