first it was russia draining its own stockpiles. now it's north korean leader kim jong un going to see you beer i can't to meet vladimir putin to learn more about russian rocket technology in a sign of deepening ties between nations. kim jong un is likely seeking russia's help in developing complex military spy satellites, something north korea lacks. of course in, it's failed on its recent attempts to put one in orbit. recall until recently russian astronauts to space when the shuttle program ended in 2011. the u.s. paid russia $56 million a seat, in fact. speaking of financial transactions iran will soon receive $6 million in previously frozen funds. iran's president says there are no restrictions on how the money will be spent. >> do you believe you have the right to use that money in any way that you see fit? >> this money belongs to the islamic republic of iran and naturally we will decide the

islamic republic of iran will decide to spend it wherever we need it. >> white house spokesman sean kirby disagrees and says there are restrictions. >> it's not just $6 billion that iranians are going to be able to write checks to whenever they want. matt was right. they can only use this money for humanitarian purposes and we will have the ability to stop transactions if we don't think they are going the right direction. he is wrong. i don't know how else to put it. he is just wrong. that's not the deal the deal has been structured and not the way these funds will get dispersed. >> in order to complete the transaction, iran wants five of its prisoners freed here in the united states. all jailed for espionage in some way. in exchange for the five americans the u.s. government has said are not spies, guys. >> pete: lucas, thank you very much. >> ainsley: unbelievable they are going to look at transaction after transaction to make sure that the $6 billion is going to

humanitarian aid. do you believe that? >> brian: qatar is in charge of the money. >> ainsley: they are transferring this money from south korea over to qatar, right? >> brian: yeah. >> ainsley: qatar is going to be in charge of this money. they will be able to dip into it and spend it however they want. we will not have the ability to look at every transaction. >> pete: or they move it in one account in iran or move it over to another and use it for whatever they want. >> brian: does admiral kirby know he is not telling the truth? pete the pete i think so. >> ainsley: do you really think iran cares about humanitarian efforts they won't use the 6 billion to pad their own coffers. >> pete: make sure the people are taken care of. >> brian: that's why they should them in cold blood in protests. other thing to keep in mind, too. we have always known the relationships between north korea and russia. this is just out front now. >> ainsley: to actually see them sitting down together, shaking hands being in the same place at the same time. he traveled to russia for this meeting. >> pete: little rocket man wants

to check out the rocket they are not good over there in the communist country. it's rare that he leaves his country by the way when you have that kind of iron grip it's dangerous to do tha lest. >> brian: tubby tyrant while his country starves. this guy is 100 pounds overweight. washington opening up impeachment inquiry over president biden alleged involvement with his son hunter's foreign business dealings. >> house republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into president biden's conduct. these are allegations of abuse ever power, obstruction, and corruption. and they warrant further investigation by the house of representatives. that's why today i am directing our house committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into president joe biden. >> pete: the biden white house continues to deny that the president new or was involved in

hunter's financial affairs. >> there is no evidence of wrongdoing by president biden because president biden didn't do anything wrong. the purpose of what they are doing is a politically motivated, far right extreme series of attacks on the president and his family that are not rooted in the truth. >> ainsley: the administration is reportedly sending a letter to news executives today urging outlets to ramp up scrutiny bile about. >> brian: do you believe this? >> ainsley: the house plans to meeting tomorrow. the republicans would need 218 votes to move forward and pass impeachment resolution. >> pete: what evidence do house republicans have so far to support this inquiry? >> ainsley: a lot. >> pete: go to the wall to lay it all out. >> ainsley: banks records, the treasury department 150 transactions flagged as suspicious activity, brian? >> brian: first we find out about a shell company set up.

shell accounts which means they don't want to find out about the origins, they don't want to know whose name is on this. and this guess all the way back to a russian oligarch sent 3.5 to that shell company. what did they get? why did he get $3.5 million? what actual talent did hunter biden, did devon archer have to get this type of money as well as eric schwerin and tony bobulinski. >> pete: what talent did he have to be on energy board in ukraine. the $1 million per month to be on the burisma board. pay to play. prosecutor looking at firing burisma hunter no, experience to be on that board. he was spring 2014. >> ainsley: no experience. >> brian: don't forget about the dinner that they had with the burisma executive. >> ainsley: executives only wanted him on the board. no experience, keep in mind, because they wanted influence from washington. >> pete: absolutely right. >> ainsley: kazakhstan, the

oligarch wired the price of hunter's sports car. that goes into an account and then he happens to buy a sport car for the same exact amount. >> brian: wrong sports car and ended out row taghts it out on top of it, too. what did he do to get that? why are we talking about kazakhstan? why are we talking about ukraine? we are talking about countries where there is lawlessness when it comes to finance. >> pete: this is another one here, too. if you are trying to -- if you are above board and running the straight up business you don't need to open multiple accounts under kids and grandkids to make sure those payments are not found. over $3 million from a rob walker-related account. rob walker a business partner of hunter biden. >> ainsley: and worked for clinton. >> pete: this is during joe biden's president presidency post vice president. >> brian: tony's bobulinski talked about this too. hunter's corps received $100 from chinese investment firm. it was hooked up with an energy company hooked up to the chinese government. this is also when you hear and

get to this in the next board, hunter threatening this energy executive saying my dad is sitting next to me because they were late on payments. >> ainsley: the family has just been offered special treatment and that's what is frustrating to so many republicans and that's why they are interesting this investigation. they feel like a lot is being covered up. even the whistleblower said this. that the doj is blocking tax investigations into hunter's $8.3 million income. >> brian: right, why are you slowing down the hunter inquiry for five years and these guys step forward going look, i tried to pursue and go about this thing the right way. i'm apolitical, i have had it, i'm coming forward. these whistleblowers have also been threatened as of yesterday. >> pete: $8.3 million, ainsley, we were talking about it before the show as well. over 150 suspicious activity reports, the type of things that get flagged that you normally have zero of if you are doing regular business they had had over 100. >> ainsley: start back at the beginning of this wall and talk about some of the messages that

they're also investigating in congress. >> brian: do you know what i don't know. i don't know why we can't see the suspicious accounts. we do not know the details but nancy mace yesterday said if you saw what we saw, you would have done this inquiry, too. meanwhile, talk about this interaction. the laptop, which turns out, stunningly, was real. >> pete: took us a long time to figure it out. >> ainsley: still denies it's not his laptop. >> brian: defending himself and doing a counter defamation suit against the guy who had the laptop and tried to repair it. july 30th, 2017, hunter biden to the chinese business associate. >> ainsley: on whatsapp. >> brian: because he was late on payments i will make sure you will regret not following my direction. i am sitting here with my father who is the president. i thought he knew nothing about his son. is this a crack head making up that his dad is here?

they could have zeroed in and used g.p.s. to find it. but they weren't allowed. to say. >> ainsley: president now but vice president then. >> pete: remember, they have already shifted that message from knew nothing to wasn't involved in the business deal. >> brian: absolutely. >> pete: it is impossible for them to continue to deny he knew nothing considering the access he had and the statements that were made. now they are saying well, his name just isn't it on the head. >> ainsley: this kind of proves he was involved. my dad is sitting next to me. you better send me the money tonight. >> pete: here is another message to a hunter biden ccp linked business associate. if you think it's about money, it's not. the bidens are the best i know -- i can barely -- the best i know at doing exactly what the chairman wants from this partnership. what does the chairman of this cbp linked organization want? well, the bidens. >> brian: county bidens do?

are they handy? can they do construction projects? no. they have washington influence. that's why they are referred to as d.c. back and forth when it comes to ukraine. >> ainsley: almost a year later, this was april 12th, 2018, hunter biden, to his assistant, indicate dodge via text. >> brian: this is big. >> ainsley: said my dad has been using most lines on this account which i've through the gracious offerings of eric schwerin have paid for the past 11 years. >> brian: eric has broken from the family. he was the money man, the organizer. you get paid here, you get paid here. you pay your taxes or don't pay your taxes. this is my advice, eric schwerin when he is subpoenaed to come forward, if he doesn't take the fifth, will be a fountain of information. >> pete: staggering. we knew a lot of this in concept when tony bobulinski came forward in 2020 right before the election. it's the guts of this with the laptop and with the committee are what have brought this inquiry about. >> ainsley: republicans had to win in the house.

>> pete: without these oversight committees none of this is out there. hunter biden to his daughter. >> brian: this is the most telling. >> pete: i hope you all can do what did i and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. it's really hard but don't worry, unlike pop, i won't make you give me half of your salary. >> brian: better known as the big guy. >> ainsley: the way it works though pop, who is the big leader in the country says i will put you on all these boards you make a bunch of money but share it with all of us, share the wealth. >> brian: these are the lines of inquiry. these are the lines of investigation that have been slowed down, slow-walked or ignored by the white house. and their family of lawyers. democrats don't see. >> ainsley: yeah, democrats are saying this is what the white house said extreme politics at its worst. republicans, they are saying that republicans haven't turned up any evidence. we just gone through all of this evidence. there is so much there. >> pete: and the white house is sending as we read at the beginning a memo to the press to

say don't look any further. don't look underneath. don't do it. this is a treasure trove for any investigative reporter. >> ainsley: it's so corrupt. >> pete: wants to get a pulitzer or wants to do the right thing for the country to find out whether the first family has been selling out the white house. >> brian: the dems say there is no there there. >> there has been no evidence and so they are using this word inquiry. >> i think the impeachment inquiry is absurd. the american people want us to do something that will make their lives better, not go off on these chases and witch hunts. >> ultra maga republicans have launched illegitimate kangaroo court fishing expedition and conspiracy theater rolled into one. >> oh my god, really? oh my gosh. oh, it's devastating. ha ha ha. oh, don't do it, please, don't do it.

[laughter] >> ainsley: fetterman. >> brian: at least he is feeling better. >> pete: good for him. still got the jim shorts on with the drawstring hanging out the front. >> brian: because there was no vote. the question is, what changes? >> brian: how much more power do they have? andy mccarthy says without ae je comer-jordan investigation. >> pete: i thought there would be a vote on the front end. >> brian: it wouldn't pass. >> ainsley: james comer, coordinated with the house judiciary chair jim jordan and the house ways and means chair jason smith. we have jim jordan coming up as you can see on our show. we have elise stefanik 7:40. she is at 8:00. >> you laid out the first question. what it is different. >> brian: take it and say it's your own. >> pete: maybe i will. >> ainsley: he accuses me of stealing his questions, which is not true. the question is like why and he is like "i was going to ask

that." 150 minutes after the hour. straight ahead, calling the dogs. the massive manhunt. i cannot believe we haven't found this guy yet for this armed and dangerous inmate as we are entering in day 13 with dog the bounty hunter on the case. >> all the citizens of that area stay alert and stay armed. i talked to his roommate and he said this guy is a killer. >> ainsley: a live report, next. >> brian: georgia declare as state of emergency over inflation. >> taxes being suspended to fight high prices. steve. >> pete: plus, the patriot awards are back. we will talk to a former trooper who won the back of the blue award. why this award show is more important than anything you will see in hollywood. >> ainsley: absolutely. ♪ i'll hold onto the wings of an eagle ♪ watch as they all fly away

officials who were investigating the origins of covid. >> ainsley: the whistleblower says these incentives to six of the seven analysts led them to change their positions from originally calling covid likely a lab leak to claiming the origins were, quote: unable to be determined. >> brian: all right. congressman brad wenstrup is investigating these claims house coronavirus subcommittee chairman he joins us now. congressman, what makes this whistleblower credible in your eyes? >> well, he is a senior level person, employee of the cia. he has been there for quite a while. he has come forward. we didn't ask him to come in. he came in on his own. and he came to both committees, the intelligence committee, as well as the select subcommittee on the pandemic. and he makes some obviously very serious allegations that we're obligated to follow up on for sure when a whistleblower comes in, that's our job, it's part of oversight. but, what he is saying is that the cia, in their effort to decide whether this came from

the lab, the virus came from the lab or it came from nature, they have a covid discovery team that comprises of seven people. six ever the seven people went with the idea that this came from the lab. they leaned towards that with some confidence. one person, who apparently was the senior leader, was more in favor of it coming from nature. fine, but instead of going forward with that, somehow they changed things around to say we are unable to determine at all. what is he alleging is that there was monetary payments of some type going to the six people to change their mind and to go with saying that this is -- we were unable to determine this. so that's a serious problem, obviously. and the cia is taking it very seriously. as well as our committee, as you might imagine, because this is within our pursue to look into these types of things. >> pete: it would be a staggering -- it's a staggering allegations were it to be true that someone is being paid. are you able -- is there a way to trace whether these payments

were made and what they were for? how do you produce evidence of this claim? >> okay. so a couple of things. one is we're asking the former coo, chief operating officer, andrew to come in and talk to us voluntarily. hopefully voluntarily. it is alleged that this was the person who was a key figure in putting this together this alleged change of mind, if you will. and so that's somebody that we want to bring in. we are also seeking documents. and all the communications that took place amongst this team and outside of this team. look, i have a good relationship with the director of the cia. hopefully they are going to be very cooperative. they have expressed extreme concern since we put this out. and, you know, this is all on top of what we saw before with dr. christian anderson going to dr. fauci saying this looks engineered and then he puts together a team. he prompts the team to use their words, to write what is known as

proximal origins definitively say this came from nature. and all their internal discussions were this really looks like it came from the lab. it likely came from the lab. we know they are doing this research in the lab. and then they come out and say it came from nature. the big question is why? why was this done in the agency, at cia and why was this done amongst these scientists led by dr. fauci or prompted by dr. fauci? >> ainsley: it seems so brazen. they had to know there is a chance this was going to be leaked. it was going to be out there. this whistleblower, does this person work at the cia? how douse this person know that this happened? is he or she one of the ones who was made paid? >> no. the whistleblower is not, that i know of. the whistleblower is wanting to remain anonymous at this time. that's part of the whistleblower process and we respect that and will keep that. if you look at what happened wwith the irs and doj accusatios from a couple of whistleblowers that work at the irs, one wanted

to remain anonymous later came forward. we'll see how this plays out but, at this point, the whistleblower is anonymous. seems to be credible. and, obviously, these are serious allegations and that's why we are going to look into them hard and i appreciate your interest. >> ainsley: look into bank accounts. >> brian: we did wonder why the fbi thought lab leak and the cia didn't. that's kind of odd. >> it is very interesting, because now, if you look at it and if this is true, the fbi and the department of energy, who has all the national labs and now the cia, all seem to really believe that this was more likely from the lab. those are three pretty powerful agencies that probably have access to a lot of information. and that's the big question, too. with these other he a agencies that say oh, it came from nature. what i have been reaching out and trying to find from the intelligence community is who they actually talked to. because it matters who you talk to to make your decision. if you just talk to the authors of proximal origins, who felt it came from the lab on their

internal documents but then said it came from nature, well, then, that's what you are going to believe. so this is important and this has been part of our investigation as well. >> pete: the cia put out a statement to this whistleblower saying we do not pay analysts to the reach specific conclusions. we teach these allegations extremely seriously and looking into them. we will keep our congressional oversight committees appropriately informed. let's hope they do keep you informed. we shall see. congressman brad wenstrup, thank you very much. >> ainsley: thank you. >> thank you. >> ainsley: coming up, the markable story of a wom mother's love. refused repeated suggestions to get abortion. now calls every day with her new baby girl a miracle. that incredible story. >> pete: sign of the times. new jersey republicans put up a billboard to protest the governor's new gender identity policy. we talked to the g.o.p. county chair who is behind that billboard coming up next.
