don't be fooled, amtrak joe tries to paint himself as a sympathetic champion of the people. behind the scenes, we have discovered and will reveal in great detail, shady, swammy behavior. back in 2014, while joe biden was the vice president, his son hunter accepted a board seat on ukraine's, one of the largest oil and gas companies owned by ukrainian oligarch facing international money laundering allegations. naturally this raised serious ethical questions and some scorned from the left corn to author peter schweitzer and his book "secret empires" while hunter biden was working in the ukrainian oil company, suspicious foreign transactions flowed to an account used by hunter biden, including a multimillion dollars deposit from that company. keep in mind, this all occurred while his father was vice president. serving as one of the key point persons for the obama administration anti-corruption methods in ukraine. any of this sound familiar? eerily similar to what we learned about the clinton foundation? a lot to unpack here. we'll have full coverage of this story in the days and

because we made the decision not to heavily regulate the internet like a slow-moving utility like amtrak or like electric company or dmv. in my view the 2015 decision to impose these net to tell the regulations was a solution in search of a problem. the internet wasn't broken when the previous administration decided to fix it. the result of the fix turned out to be negative. infrastructure investment for the first time outside of a recession declined. we saw more companies hiring lawyers and accountants instead of investing in the networks that we saw countries around the world thinking the americans are getting in on the game. maybe we should start thinking about heavy-handed regulations. the best part of the reason why this enterprise was guided, to the question of why people are upset of the cad it's because people saw political advantage in fomenting a lot of fear. you saw all of these false fears and we document some of them. we saw broadcast on december 14th, 2017, when we made our decision. this is the end of the internet as we know. you will have to pay five dollars per tweet. ou

thanks to you and amtrak for getting here tonight. what's different this time around? >> well, you know what was interesting? there was a lot of talk about the suspension of joe biden decision and how long it took him to enter the race. if it was up to joe biden, he would have waited longer to get in. there is a number of reasons his team said this has to be the time but you can see there when i asked him the question about the president's comments, whether he wanted to engage, you can see the wheels turning and there was something we don't often associate with joe biden, which was restraint there. he wanted to engage. he's ordinarily inclined to do so. they want him to stay above the fray. the higher the stakes, the better you'll do and get on my back, i'm the person who can beat this guy and forget about the policy discussions and everything else. this is about ending this national emergency and defeating him at the ballot box. >> matt, talk about his choice to lead with charlottesville. >> it was clearly to your point a way to put trump in his cross hairs early on.

. >> the hour-and-a-half commute each way earns him the nickname amtrak joe. >> our senate hearings sometimeso not begin until 10:30 or 11:00 in the morning. we had to sort of gauge our situation on the basis of joe's train. >> biden dives into his work but says the absence of nelia and naomi was like a companion that never left his side. >> my family held me in place from going over the edge until jill lifted me up and moved me on. >> an advertisement featuring model jill jacobs catches biden's eye at the wilmington airport. >> two nights later frank and jim and my sister val were all going out together for dinner with their dates, and my brother frank said, well, i got just the girl for you to meet. >> biden agrees to go, and his date is the exact same girl from the photo. >> i was used to dating guys with jeans and bell bottoms and clogs. when i opened the door there he was in a dark suit and leather shoes, and i thought, "well, you know, this is only going to be one date." we went out on a date and he was really interesting. when he took me to the door to say good night, he shook my hand

bells going off all over the place but his campaign is going full speed because there is no stopping amtrak now. >> we got to stand together and if we do, we will take back this country! i i mean it! don't give up ask my keep it going! >> mike: is joe ready to take on front-runner bernie sanders? is he prepared to answer for his racially insensitive remarks? what about fund-raising? i mean, he's got $0 while the other candidates have millions of the bank. former clinton advisor and fox news contributor doug jones says biden is just the wrong candidate at the wrong time. joe mike dubke joins me along with ari fleischer, former white house press secretary and a fox news contributor. gentlemen, happy to have you. doug, i'm happy to have you. let me ask the simple question. you say he's the wrong guy for the wrong time. why? speak of the democrats now, governor, are seeking a more progressive candidates, younger candidates, fresh faces, people of color, and to a great extent, women. joe biden is none of that. in traditional politics, as i grew up with it, i think ari as well, the person with th

the government can't run amtrak, what makes you think it will be able to run a third of our economy in everything to do with healthcare? it is just not going to work. it is going to lessen competition. look, there are people out there that need better healthcare and want better healthcare. let's do things like health savings accounts and put people in charge of their money. >> martha: they will say republicans had an opportunity. they didn't do what they promised for years, which was that they would repeal and replace obamacare and come up with something better. that is the hit on your side of the fence. >> no doubt about it. republicans have been pathetic and inconsistent in their messaging. they should have taken care of the pre-existing conditions earlier. they should have addressed getting rid of the individual mandate earlier although they did do it. i'm proud of the fact they actually got that passed. but there needs to be a consistent sort of three to five-point plan that every republican in the country is talking about and right now other than the president, it's very scattered

senator joe biden, vice president joe biden making his way there through the amtrak station in delaware. he took two questions there, the first question being why did president obama not endorse you, and making a bit of news there because apparently according to the vice president he asked his former boss not to endorse him. again, this is a live look outside that train station there in wilmington, delaware, as the vice president makes his way to launch a presidential campaign. the third one he's launched in his lifetime. the first of course in 1988. then there was the campaign in 2008, a brief campaign there. now joe biden trying again in 2019. we should also note -- there's been a fair amount made of the timing chain. some folks saying that joe biden got into this thing a little too late. maybe there's already to much money that's gone to other candidates. the infrastructure for a successful campaign may not be able to be put in place. donald trump actually got into the race later. by about two months if my math is right. later than joe biden has gotten into this thing. what do you ma

i thought she should be taking amtrak. isn't that more environmentally friendly anyway?stion, good question. she might have popped up on a big jet to go there. president trump got an interesting peek on alexandria ocasio-cortez and intimidating all these folks on capitol hill, watch this. >> you have senators that are professional and you guys know have been there a long time, white hair, everything perfect. and they are standing behind her and shaking, petrified of her. >> jesse: [laughter] trump is like the don king's politics. he's good, and goes into fighting each other. because there is tension. >> martha: fled alone for the hair. >> jesse: good line. and very well in the fight game. and there's already tension in the democrat party between aoc and the party leadership because she unveils the green new deal that republicans are gleefully running against. now donald trump is framing the 2020 election has socialism versus capitalism. so they already don't like each other. at this point, aoc is more of a gift to republicans than she has been a gift to democrats. >> mar
