that is man's best friend. but you gotta go to think i one. but sosomething you what is participation. show up. >> check out my podcast a politically unstable good evening, into cross-country, president joe biden under more scrutiny than ever before. the commander in chief, leader of the free world, it took pressure from the liberal media to finally acknowledge his 4-year-old granddaughter navy, the daughter of his son hunter wanted from arkansas without opportunity suits in 2019. after only six of his seven grandchildren for years, the
6:01 pm
president now says jill and i only want what's best for all of our grandchildren including navy. he says it's a family matter, not politics but far from the first time joe biden, career politician who's been in d.c. half a century at the center of controversy. symbols and scandals started at the beginning, take this for example from 1988, biden was running for president. >> what law school did you attend and where did you place in that class? >> i think i have a much higher iq than you, i suspect. i went to law school on a full academic scholarship. the only one in my quest of a full academic scholarship in the outstanding department at the end, i graduated with 3 degrees from undergraduate school. >> that wasn't the only awkward moment.
6:02 pm
plagiarizing speech after speech ending his campaign after three months so fast-forward to this kat from his 2020 presidential bid. >> somehow if you're poor, you cannot do it, poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids. >> all this before we ever knew the truth about hunter biden or his laptop, the father-son scandal has been planned out in the public eye ever since. >> how many times have you spoken to your son about his overseas business dealings? >> i've never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings. >> he never spoke to his son about his overseas business dealing, is that still the case? >> yes. >> white house and the president stand behind the comet that he's never been involved for even spoken to his son about this so
6:03 pm
i've been asked this a million times and the answer will not change, the answer remains the same, the president was never in business with his son, which is don't have anything else to add. >> by. accountability, truth and transparency, that's all the truth people are asking for. what we have never gone from this president so is this what we are being offered again in 2024? with spring and jason chaffetz, sarah carter. jason, used to be the oversight committee, i found it astonishing what the judge said. we had several people on this program talk about this sweetheart deal, will wayne, they get in trouble with the law, they would never have gotten that deal but the judge asked the prosecution as well as defense, is there any president to which they responded no. >> because there wasn't. this was a sweetheart deal that gave him immunity on everything even into the future and a judge rightly looked at it and found
6:04 pm
it and thank goodness she did because this sweetheart deal would wipe everything away and they thought they had this cute little deal set up but it wa wasn't. all we are trying to do is make sure there is equal application of justice and we all know is your name is biden or clinton or something like that, you get a totally different deal than anybody else in america and we all know it was double trump or republican or ron desantis or anybody, they would come guns a blazing doing everything they can to take these people down. >> this is the most recent scandal, why does he always get off with this he's an honest man, admiral guy? uncle joe when we see time after time he lies to the american people? >> he's like teflon, like the clinton family, the democrats
6:05 pm
own this, they control what i call bureaucracy in washington d.c., the swamp. this was going on here. for decades safe and will in positions within the department of justice, the dni, director of national intelligence within the cia, all various theocracies, they placed their friends and allies and most important link, the media which refuses to expose the truth on them. this is just one of so many scandals and you listed some of them, plagiarism. he went to baltimore and talked about the blonde hair on his legs and the little kids come look at the blonde hair glistening on his legs and racist statements he's made but they keep coming up for him because he stands on what are these marxists democratic policies and jason is right, it was the judge who made a difference. the sweetheart deal was negotiated by not only the
6:06 pm
prosecution but by the defense because they had to have agreed to it so in the end we see here a system, thankfully it's been exposed but only because of this judgment we don't know what's going to happen in the future. what we do know is the biden's have taken exorbitant amounts of money it appears and especially hunter biden from adversarial nations and there should be full investigation into that. intelligence investigation that should been not only congress but special counsel or something outside of that to find out how much of our nation is actually sold out, possibly by this family and that's how frightening this is. >> real quickly, jason. him and the first lady decided they wouldn't be deadbeat grandparents anymore so i guess we should celebrate.
6:07 pm
>> that's a load of garbage, doing the best thing for navy. if they were doing the best thing, it would be in court trying to reduce the payment, they could have acknowledges the same time the dna test came back positive. the only reason they did this is because they were called out and they did not like that so on a friday night, people magazine gave a written statement. >> so shady of people recording it on a friday night. thank you for joining the program. all of this trauma has this on a biden impeachment inquiry, third impeachment in a president, is this really what the american people want to see? we asked the voters our self. >> i feel he should be. >> if found guilty, he should be, he should be brought to justice just like trump or biden, it doesn't matter who they are. if they interfered, they should be brought to justice.
6:08 pm
>> by should he be impeached, for what his son did? >> there should be an investigation, they should look on how they are involved. >> he should be impeached. >> packing up. >> they should be held accountable. >> if he knew and was involved. >> i'd rather not see president biden impeached, i don't know a ton about the hunter biden situation so i need to be more informed but pretty content with his presidency and seems that took place prior to the presidency and doesn't have that much to do with joe biden and his effectiveness as president so i would say no. >> what does it matter if he knew or didn't know? impeaching presidents becomes part of the american political system then it's a sign of decline. >> i'm joined by tennessee
6:09 pm
congressman, i laid out a ton of evidence about why joe biden should probably be impeached but adam schiff should weapon is it impeachment process against donald trump so can you explain how this process would be different? >> he really did, i was in when a lot of that was going on, i was in my first or second year, trial by fire but this process is different because the facts will be laid out to the american public hearings, not the televised things market, the impeachment hearings and everything else in january 6, i think they had walkout music so it is orchestrated in your so-called legacy media, the legacy media basically, they
6:10 pm
have endorsed this clown show for so long, they are part of it and can't run from it so i think you're going to see jim jordan committee -- i'm sorry, judiciary, the committee i serve on chairman covid's oversight and maybe even one over, make a clear case for what's going on. i said this many times but during school, the biden family was asleep during money laundering class. look at the millions of dollars to the chinese and now development we are seeing about burisma, it's one after the other and now you have testimony from someone who will put joe biden in the room with hunter and they were shaking down foreign countries. >> to fail impeachment so how do
6:11 pm
republicans make this stick? what is the main case? >> first of all, as far as sticking, it's not going to kick biden out of office because we got a crooked justice department so one-sided it's failed to look at things as the hunter biden case exhibited, they would cut a sweetheart deal, and tennessee people go to what been longer time in jail for serious traffic violations than what this guy is doing so i think you will see the connection between the two and the influence but with the justice department to anything? probably not and that's why it's important 20 million conservative folks who decided not to vote last presidential election, get out and vote because this is exactly what happens with the justice department is overrun in the case made in your earlier
6:12 pm
segment about how they stack every department and created the swamp and this is what you get. >> you can't have a two-tiered justice system. most americans just want -- thank you for spending time with us this evening. >> thank you for having me and it's been an excellent show so far. >> is it time for congress next america answers. that's next. ♪

welcome back, does age really matter? a proposed ballot measure and record of the keep anyone turning 81 by the end of the term from being elected or appointed. step too far or start of a nationwide shift. we asked, you answered. >> i think it should be because i feel people should take a rest. >> they should not. >> i should have been a few years ago. >> i don't think it's an age limit, is just maturity and knowledge. >> not worry about age, how about iq? >> there is certain imitation on
6:17 pm
development in the mind and everything. the should be a limit. >> turn limit short, not age limit. >> anyone who 25 as competent as someone who's 85. >> joe biden has been in office since the day he graduated law school and people could say whatever but he's been in power to long and i believe congress should have tournament as well. >> moneymaking opportunity where elected officials. >> you can't keep that power forever. use what you can and hopefully it's for the better of everybody. >> not to react, ricky, thank you for joining the program. i know we are young but we witnessed a lot this week, we saw diane feinstein have to be told how to vote. obviously a continuing issue, he
6:18 pm
got the president of the united states joe biden so is this a step too far, these term limits or age limits or is it what the american people want? >> i think it is a person-to-person situation even as much as i'm not a bernie sanders fan in terms of what he comes up with, a lot sharper than biden even though he's older so i would say to be not a hard age limit but term limit feels reasonable and it agree as young people can be uncomfortable talking about this but when you look at the polling, older americans are more likely to believe there should be an age limit so maybe there's wisdom in agreeing with them on this. >> is not to make people feel about especially when you have elderly who are fine. you can disagree with donald trump and say his ideas people may say i'm crazy, but he's all there. bernie sanders as you laid out, he still has little, you may
6:19 pm
think his ideas aren't the correct ideals but he still moving along so is it a real age problem or just information problem with the american voters? i look at john fetterman for example, he's not an old man but the american people were robbed of what was going on at the t time. >> absolutely and i think there's a lot of situations where even biden's own supporters felt he was too old to run but felt they were left with another choice and i think sometimes with the two-party binary people feel they have to focus, they don't even think competent in the first place which is away american voters feel compromised so as much as age limit may be felt uncomfortable, term limits would be a great way to kill two birds with one stone but elderly people not being sharp but the corruption career politicians at
6:20 pm
the same time so that may be a way to go about it without being a just. >> key, he's been on the show a lot about gen z and millennial voters, do you think this new group of voters will weed this out? >> absolutely, i think young people are not thrilled with the president right now. he couldn't be less reliable in terms of age and if you look at the percentage of gen z who approve visit job, the largest drop of any one who come into office so there's a hunger for young voices speaking to the vast majority of the american people and not necessarily career politicians and i hope jen zeke will be at the helm of attracting new voices. >> i hope gen z brothers and sisters don't raise my taxes. i know i have a lot of ideas they feel should be free, i just don't want to pay for it. thank you for coming on the program. >> thank you for having me.

guide my job as a diversity higher, we you stand on this? >> this is a necessary conversation. di is off the rails, i'm not sure if you've had the opportunity to view the debate they have the opportunity to participate about this program should be abolished for this reason. so many things are happening that have contributed. there are groups being created out of thin air, there ways the programs don't look at real solutions, it's making people sometimes feel that having people sign contracts like all white people are racist and i'm no exception, what does it accomplish to build from robbery, what solution does it provide to the organization? it freezes people and alienates people. di should be about solving real social innovation issues within the organization not leaving

what these -- elected officials are thinking about doing? it just doesn't make sense to me. >> yeah of all of the thing our government should be fixing trying to take away, you know, our credit card points that's like last nice thing we have. at least in my perspective but basically a group of senateors are trying to say they want give the power to retailers to choose to run your transaction on a cheaper network so essentially what this means for the consumer is if you're used to getting triple point or double points on a credit card, the retailor would decide whether to run your transaction on a much cheaper network that doesn't give you points or possibly even fraud protection. so this is a huge boom for retailers they would save billions and processing fees. but that would come directly from consumers. you would essentially stop earning points and potentially even fraud protections which will be a huge loss for millions
